I Became the Legendary Emperor Throughout the Ages After I Started Giving Away My Territory

Chapter 297.2



Chapter 297.2

Inside the Great Liang imperial palace, bad news spread frequently.

The court was shrouded in gloom, and everyones faces were very grim.

The Grandmaster of Great Liang slammed the table and stood up angrily, saying, Your Majesty, we can no longer tolerate this! Great Xias troops are advancing rapidly southward. We cannot sit idly by. I will take action now and deflate their arrogance!

The Emperor of Great Liang was shocked, Senior, please wait! Lets discuss this matter thoroughly!

The Grandmaster of Great Liang was furious, Your Majesty, they are at our doorstep, and you still want us to cower and hide? Even if you are willing, I am not!

These words are a little presumptuous, but the Great Liang Emperor could only offer a flattering smile to appease the situation.

Please calm your anger, Senior! You are angry, but I am even more angry. However, impatience can ruin grand plans! The closer we get to the moment of action, the more we need to remain calm. Losing our composure will only lead to chaos

Your Majesty, stop talking nonsense!

The Great Liang Grandmaster waved his hand decisively and said, Just tell me directly how you want to fight and when you want to fight. Give me a clear answer! My mind cant find peace if you keep holding back!

Very well, very well, very well

The Great Liang Emperor racked his brain for an excuse: As the saying goes, arrogance leads to defeat. By the time they reach Fengzhou City, they will surely become complacent. At that moment, wouldnt it be wonderful if we caught them off guard?

Fine, I will endure for two more days! The Great Liang Grandmaster said, huffing with impatience.

As expected, the two days passed quickly, and the Great Xia troops reached Fengzhou City.

The Great Liang Grandmaster couldnt sit still any longer: Your Majesty, they have arrived. I am going to catch them off guard right now!

Senior, wait!

The Great Liang Emperor made up another excuse: Indeed, I had planned to strike at their arrogance in Fengzhou City, but the trump card Ive been preparing is not yet ready. Lets be patient a little longer!

How much longer must we wait? The Great Liang Grandmaster asked while fuming.

The Great Liang Emperor initially wanted to say seven or eight days, but seeing the Grandmasters furious demeanor, he shortened it to two days.

Senior, just two more days! After that, they will be at a dead end!

Fine, Ill wait another two days!

Two days passed in the blink of an eye.

The Great Liang Grandmaster returned: Your Majesty, how is the preparation of that trump card going? Im about to lose my temper!

The Great Liang Emperor shook his head: Senior, its almost ready. Please be patient!

The Great Liang Grandmaster was puzzled: What exactly is this trump card that has taken so long to prepare? Can you not tell me so that I can be prepared?

The Great Liang Emperor smiled mysteriously: Its a secret! It will surely be a surprise for you when the time comes!

The Great Liang Grandmaster looked at him suspiciously: How many more days are needed?

This time, the Great Liang Emperor was full of confidence: Senior, do not be anxious. In just two more days, our great work will be accomplished!

Good! Ill come back in two days, and I hope Your Majesty wont disappoint me!

Two days later, the Great Liang Grandmaster arrived as promised.

The Great Liang Emperor said with a smile: Senior, youve finally come! Ive moved all the valuable items from the imperial palace. Lets leave Great Liang now. I hope you can protect me along the way. After this is done, I will give you a great reward!

The Great Liang Grandmaster was dumbfounded: Your Majesty, are you planning to run away?

Yes! The Great Liang Emperor gave an affirmative answer.

The Great Liang Grandmaster was still in shock: But didnt you keep talking about preparing a trump card?

The Great Liang Emperor gave a bitter smile: What trump card? Ive been busy moving assets these past few days. I cant let Great Xia take them for nothing!

The Great Liang Grandmaster couldnt take it anymore. He had been wholeheartedly preparing for a great battle, and now the Emperor was planning to run away?

It feels like his own blood has been fed to the dogs! (TLN: It felt like all his passion had gone to waste!)

The Great Liang Emperor knew that what he had done was somewhat underhanded.

But if he had been blunt, the Grandmasters pride would definitely not be able to bear it, so he had to keep stringing him along.

Now that preparations were complete and he could no longer keep up the pretense, he was willing to reveal the truth.

The Great Liang Emperor pleaded: Senior, this is the last thing I ask of you. Escort me safely out of Great Liang. The Great Xia troops are nearing, and it will be too late if we dont leave now!

Considering his past relationship as ruler and subject, the Great Liang Grandmaster nodded in reluctance: alright, Ill escort you out now.

But at that moment, a loud and clear voice came from outside.

Ouyang Jueqing, I am here. Come out and face me!

The Great Liang Grandmasters expression changed: Your Majesty, we may not be able to leave!
