The dancers on the stage stopped dancing and looked at each other hesitantly.

They did not dare to look directly at the Holy Face, but they remembered what His Majesty had just said for them in their hearts.

How dare they let down your Majesty's kindness?

The leading dancer looked at the sisters behind her and saw that they all shook their heads.

She stood up and knelt down to pay her respects to Mo Jinyi and Emperor Mingde who were in high positions, her tone neither humble nor arrogant.

"I pay my respects to the two Lords. I have discussed this with the sisters."

"Thank you for your kindness, His Majesty Qi. The maids don't want to leave their hometown and only want to stay in Beiyun."

Emperor Mingde stared at the dancers below in astonishment. He didn't expect that someone would actually dare to reject him.

Or the kind that didn't even give it half a thought.

He shook his head and asked in a normal tone.

"Why, do you think I gave you too little land? How about this, if you are willing to go with me, I will make you the four concubines when I return?"

As soon as he said this, Mo Sheng clearly saw that the two beauties beside him stiffened a little.

[Look, this Emperor Mingde is not afraid of a fire in his backyard. He is already suffering from kidney deficiency, but he still wants to keep his mind full of lust]

The two beauties certainly had not expected that their majesty would spend such a huge price for a few dancers.

When they were chosen to follow him, they didn't receive this treatment.

Not to mention being named a concubine, they didn't even have room to object when they were chosen.

At that time, they also heard that one of the sisters did not want to enter the palace and said that she wanted to stay at home with her relatives.

In order to get her, Your Majesty wiped out her entire family and forcibly abducted her into the palace, and now you are still treating her as if she is being abandoned.

I don’t know how long these people who were lured here by Your Majesty with benefits can survive in the Qi Palace.

The two beauties looked at each other and sighed silently in their hearts.

Mo Jinyi couldn't help laughing when he heard his daughter's complaints. He put his hand between his lips and coughed softly.

"Don't be afraid, I am here, just tell me what you want."

The leading dancer heard the voices of the two emperors above her head, especially the cold and powerful voice of His Majesty, she couldn't help but look back at her sisters.

Seeing that they still shook their heads, she took a deep breath and looked determined.

"Your Majesty, we maids would like to decline His Majesty Qi's kindness."

"I still say what I just said. I just want to stay in Beiyun."

They cannot go to Qi State. Although Beiyun has many faults and they do not live in wealth, it is their motherland after all.

This is the place where they grew up, and for girls, the status in Beiyun is much higher than in other countries.

They have heard that the status of women in Qi State is very low. Many girls cannot even go out before getting married. Even after marriage, they have to wear thick curtains when going out.

Moreover, it was obvious that the Emperor of Qi was not a good person. He was surrounded by beautiful women and began to get tired of the old and love the new.

One can imagine what will happen to them when they go there. By then, they will have no motherland to support them.

Emperor Mingde didn't expect that he would be rejected even though he raised the conditions. His face suddenly turned gloomy and his tone became cold.

"Okay, okay, that's really good. I gave you such a high offer but you still refused. You really don't know how to appreciate it."

"Since I can't get you, no one else can either. Come, kill them for me."

When Mo Sheng heard what he said, she rolled her eyes gracefully and was speechless.

[How can this man be so confident? He wants to fight and kill people in Beiyun’s base. Does he really think this is his Qi State?]

The dancers on the stage were trembling with fear at his words, and they all fell to their knees with a bang.

But still didn't let go.

Mo Jinyi looked at Emperor Mingde who was furious, and he leaned back in his chair lazily.

"Emperor Mingde, I am still here, and you ordered your people to fight and kill my people. It seems that you really don't take me seriously."

The dancers in the audience breathed a sigh of relief when they heard that their majesty was still willing to protect them.

When Emperor Mingde came back to his senses from his rage, he saw Mo Jinyi looking at him expressionlessly with cold eyes.

Emperor Mingde shuddered. Only then did he feel that the Emperor of Beiyun was more powerful than he had imagined.

He took a deep breath and said to Mo Jinyi.

"I just like these beauties very much......"

Mo Jinyi interrupted him with a frown.

"But they said they don't want to, you have to respect their choice."

[Father, you were not much better than him a long time ago]

Mo Jinyi: “…………” He pretended not to hear these words, but he has changed his mind now.

Emperor Mingde was about to say something when he saw that these people refused to give in.

The Minister of Rites of Qi State, who was in the audience, stepped forward and said.

"Your Majesty of Beiyun, please forgive me. Your Majesty is just a little drunk. I will escort him back to rest."

The Minister of Rites of Qi wiped the cold sweat from his face. They dared not let His Majesty act recklessly anymore.

If they continue to make trouble, the peace talks will probably collapse. They have underestimated Beiyun's strength over the years. If they continue to fight, Qi will not gain any benefit at all.

Mo Jinyi looked at the person in the audience with a half-smile, and this person was alert.

"Okay, since His Majesty Qi is drunk, I think the banquet is over. Let's all go back and rest."

After Mo Jinyi finished speaking, he waved his hand to signal everyone to go back and rest, while he continued to accompany the Emperor of Qi back to his tent.

The next day, they officially began the peace talks.

After several days of discussion, the negotiation conditions were finally finalized.

In the end, the war came to an end with Qi paying Beiyun a compensation of a city in Jiangzhou, 100 million taels of silver, and some rare treasures from Qi.

Emperor Mingde left in a hurry on the day the peace talks were successful and the letter of surrender was signed. He was too embarrassed to stay any longer.

Less than four hours after he signed the letter of surrender, the news had already reached the capital of Qi State.

The eldest princess, who was basking in the sun and drinking the recently popular milk tea in the garden of the princess's mansion, took the letter from her aide and took a look at it.

Sneered out loud.

"My father is such a fool that he even dared to give up such an important position in Jiangzhou City."

The staff member standing by bowed and asked in confusion.

"What is your majesty thinking? Isn't he afraid that Beiyun will use Jiangzhou to march straight into Qi?"

The eldest princess looked at the empty cup of milk tea. She heard that this thing was called milk tea, but she had no idea how it was made.

She thought it tasted quite good.

When the aide saw that the eldest princess had finished drinking, he hurried forward to give her another drink, but the eldest princess stopped him.

This stuff is good, but don’t drink too much, it will make you gain weight.

She stood up from her seat with the help of the palace maid's hand, and looked at the beautiful and bright flowers in the garden.

She stroked the flowers gently with her fingers, raised the corners of her mouth and said coldly.
