Zhao Lishi's eyes rolled, and he hurriedly asked Luo Moxia, who was wearing men's clothes, to come forward to please Mu Han.

Luo Moxia moved closer to Mu Han and said in a tender voice, "Your Majesty, Princess An Ning is really ungrateful."

She tried to follow Mu Han's words and sow discord: "How can I know how to love His Majesty?"

Mu Han looked at Luo Moxia with disgust. His eyes turned cold and he instantly drew out the scimitar from his back. With a flash of cold light, Luo Moxia was stabbed in the throat before she could react and fell into a pool of blood.

Then, Mu Han looked at Zhao Lishi, his eyes full of warning: "Who are you trying to disgust by making this kind of thing?"

Zhao Lishi shuddered all over: "Then the princess asked His Majesty to go to the palace for a chat? What does His Majesty mean?"

"No!" Mu Han said, "I can't go! What does she think of me?!"

Zhao Lishi nodded immediately upon hearing this: "Yes... yes... I'll reply right away."

"Wait!" Mu Han immediately called him, and after a moment of silence, Mu Han gritted his teeth and said:

"Don't go to the palace. Write a letter to tell her. Then you can talk to her at Zui Xiang Lou."

Zhao Lishi: ? ?

Zhao Lishi then saluted and said, "Yes."

……

In Xuanyue Country, the situation is turbulent.

The news of Lin Xiao and the abdication spread throughout the world like a gust of wind, causing an uproar.

Among the people, Lin Wanwan's reputation is already well-known, and her immortal name has long been praised in the hearts of the people.

Now that they knew she was about to become the emperor of Xuan Yue Kingdom, the people were even more excited, and her popularity surged like a surging tide.

People were talking about it on the streets, and their words were full of admiration and expectation for Lin Wanwan.

Even the people in the five cities that had been occupied were originally worried, but now after hearing the news, their confidence was instantly restored. They seemed to see the dawn of hope, and their eyes were shining with longing for the future.

On the road leading to Kyoto City, Mu Han led a massive army with great momentum. Their war horses marched in unison, with the clatter of their hooves raising clouds of dust.

Under Ouyang Qingyu's instructions, the city lords along the way let them pass. They all knew that this storm was about to break out in Kyoto City, and they could only adapt to the situation.

Wherever Mu Han's army passed, the people were nervous, but since Mu Han promised not to harm the lives of the people, they could only pray silently for the arrival of peace.

Finally, Mu Han's army arrived at the gate of Kyoto City. The army was a mass of black, covering the entire Kyoto City like a dark cloud.

Mu Han was riding on a tall horse, wearing pure black armor, with a cold look in his eyes.

Lu Mu looked at Mu Han who was approaching, his heart filled with anxiety. He knew that if he could not stop Mu Han's attack, Kyoto City would be in danger.

The thought of Kyoto being engulfed in flames and smoke and the tragic scenes on the battlefield before made him terrified.

Besides, Mu Han came here for Lin Wanwan this time.

Lu Mu clenched his fists, stood on the city wall, and looked at the Purple Gold soldiers below who were as ferocious as wolves and tigers. The gap between the soldiers of both sides was too big. If a war really broke out in Kyoto City, the consequences would be disastrous.

Lu Mu said to Wang Sha and Zhou Jun, "I want to challenge Mu Han in a one-on-one duel."

Wang Sha shook her head. She knew that although Lu Mu was powerful, Mu Han’s anger at this moment should not be underestimated.

However, Lu Mu had made up his mind. He resolutely walked to the edge of the city wall and shouted to Mu Han below: "Mu Han, I, Lu Mu, challenge you. Do you dare to fight first?!"

Mu Han was riding on a tall warhorse. When he heard Lu Mu's challenge, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, revealing a disdainful smile:

"I'm not interested in doing this with you."

Then, Mu Han's voice was cold and majestic, "Let Princess An Ning come out to confront her."

Lu Mu looked at Mu Han below and corrected him, "From now on, you should call her Her Majesty the Empress!"

A hint of doubt flashed across Mu Han's eyes. He stared at Ouyang Qingyu and asked, "What? Did she really ascend the throne?"

Lu Mu took a deep breath and said loudly: "This is the truth."

Mu Han's expression became even darker, and his eyes were filled with anger:

"Okay, the truth. So you tricked me into coming to Kyoto again? You don't want to see me? Or do you want to kill me?!

Break down the city gate! I will go in and find it myself!"

He shouted loudly, then raised his sword, ready to order the attack on Kyoto City.

Just then, a figure in white walked onto the city wall.

She has an upright figure and a cool temperament, like a plum blossom blooming in the ice and snow:

"Mu Han! Stop it!"

Lin Wanwan's voice was clear and loud, echoing on the battlefield.

When Mu Han heard this and saw Lin Wanwan on the city wall, he felt both happy and angry.

His eyes flashed with complex light, and he looked at Lin Wanwan on the city wall again, feeling so angry that his lungs were about to explode:

"You're lying! You said you've been in Zijin Country for three months! You're lying!"

Lin Wanwan frowned slightly and looked at Mu Han:

"Mu Han, I didn't mean to lie to you. A major incident happened in Yunhai Country, and I had to stay there to deal with it."

Mu Han's eyes were still filled with anger. He stared at Lin Wanwan and said:

"Do you know how long I have been waiting for you? Do you know that you have worn out my patience?!"

Lin Wanwan was silent for a moment, then said: "Open the city gate, come in Mu Han, we will talk."

Mu Han looked at Lin Wanwan, and the anger in his heart gradually subsided. He took a deep breath and said:

"Okay, come out and meet me, and I'll follow you in, and we can talk it out."

Mu Han watched Lin Wanwan's figure disappear on the city wall.

It didn't take long.

The gate of Kyoto City opened and two people came out. Unlike Mu Han who was on high alert, Lin Wanwan walked slowly, with only Jiang Mengxiang by her side.

She was dressed in a light and elegant brocade fur coat, with an elegant figure and extraordinary temperament. She walked beside Mu Han, without any tension or fear on her face.

Mu Han immediately dismounted and went to meet him.

He couldn't help but look at her. Her expression was leisurely, as if she was not here to fight in the battlefield but to enjoy the scenery.

Lin Wanwan was accompanied by only Jiang Mengxiang. Mu Han looked them up and down and saw that they were not even wearing weapons.

But this made Zhao Lishi, who was standing behind Mu Han, feel his scalp tingle and his whole body tense like a string.

He looked at Lin Wanwan nervously in front of him, his heart full of worry. He couldn't help but call Mu Han from behind:

"Your Majesty, do not enter Kyoto City, for fear of fraud."

Mu Han was slightly stunned when he heard this. His eyes were fixed on Lin Wanwan, and he was hesitant.

Lin Wanwan looked calm. She looked at Mu Han and said slowly, "I'll wait for you at Zui Xiang Lou."

After saying that, she continued to walk forward, entered the city gate, and walked towards Zui Xiang Tower in the city.

Mu Han looked at Lin Wanwan's back and felt a struggle in his heart.

Finally, he gritted his teeth and decided to enter Kyoto City. Even though he knew it might be a trap, he couldn't resist the temptation to meet Lin Wanwan.

Inside Zuixianglou.

Lin Wanwan sat quietly in the middle of the lobby, her eyes calm, waiting for Mu Han to come for the appointment.

But outside the door of Zui Xiang Lou, Lu Mu and many generals had already guarded the entire Zui Xiang Lou tightly.

The soldiers looked serious, holding their weapons tightly in their hands, ready to deal with any possible danger at any time.

Ouyang Qingyu came with Situ Liufeng.

Situ Liufeng carried a medical box filled with pills for boys to have children.

But as soon as they arrived outside Zui Xiang Lou, they saw Su Ye, Ye Lan, Qin Jun and Zi Tan holding weapons and ready for battle.

Even Zhang Zhirang had a lot of grenades hidden in his package.

His eyes revealed vigilance and determination. He was always ready. If there was any danger, he would act without hesitation, throw a grenade and kill those Purple Gold people.

Ouyang Qingyu looked towards the rooftop of Zui Xiang Tower, only to see Bai Lian and Hua Yu staring down at Mu Han's every move.

"This scene..." Situ Liufeng was standing not far from the entrance of Zui Xiang Lou. Seeing this, he couldn't help but narrow his eyes and said to Ouyang Qingyu in a deep voice:

"If you don't know, you would think the princess is going to kill Mu Han. Look how nervous they are."

Ouyang Qingyu frowned, and after hearing what Situ Liufeng said, he said in a cold voice: "Although we are negotiating peace today, it is still unknown whether Mu Han will agree. If we are not careful, it will be a fierce battle."

Mu Han swept his eyes over everyone, waved away all the generals, and then entered Zui Xiang Lou with only Zhao Lishi.

Lin Wanwan sat in the middle of Zuixiang Tower with a calm expression and ordered Jiang Mengxiang to make tea.

Jiang Mengxiang poured the tea with slightly trembling hands and moved very carefully.

Lin Wanwan raised her hand and said softly, "Please."

After Mu Han sat down, he drew out the scimitar behind him without hesitation. With a "click", the scimitar was gently placed on the black table.

The shiny blade shone with cold light, attracting special attention.

Jiang Mengxiang's eyelids twitched wildly, and her heart was filled with fear. She was already afraid of the men of Zijin Country, not to mention that the man in front of her was the king of Zijin Country.

Lin Wanwan's gaze also fell on the scimitar. She remained silent for a long time, with a cold look in her eyes.

Mu Han picked up the teacup and stared at the water in the cup, but suddenly turned his hand and poured the tea onto the ground, with a hint of dissatisfaction in his voice:

"It's a watery soup, I won't drink it."

Lin Wanwan's eyes turned cold, and her voice was steady and powerful:

"Today, it is the Purple Gold Nation, as the defeated nation, that has taken the initiative to ask for peace with our Xuan Yue Nation."

When Mu Han heard this, he immediately became furious. He slammed the table, took out the letter from his arms, pressed it on the table with a "smack", and said angrily:

"No! Didn't you write a letter admitting your mistake?!"

Lin Wanwan raised her eyes and looked at him with a firm gaze: "Why can't we make peace?"

Mu Han scratched his face and said hesitantly: "It's not impossible."

Zhao Lishi on the side was shocked. They all thought that Xuanyue Kingdom had already been defeated and was ready for war.

But who would have thought that Mu Han actually wanted to make peace.

Lin Wanwan looked at Mu Han quietly: "Then... tell me the conditions."

Mu Han looked into her dark eyes, which flickered slightly, and said softly, "Marry me."

At this moment, there was silence in Zui Xiang Lou, and the air seemed to be frozen.

Jiang Mengxiang stood aside nervously, not daring to breathe.

On the roof of Zuixianglou, Bai Lian and Hua Yu stood quietly.

When Mu Han said "Marry me", they looked at each other.

Hua Yu raised a smile and said softly, "It looks like we'll have one more servant."

Bai Lian lowered his eyes slightly, his expression calm, and just responded softly: "Yeah."

Outside Zui Xiang Tower, Su Ye and Ye Lan stood together.

Su Ye's face was full of curiosity, and he waited impatiently for the news inside. He patted Ye Lan's shoulder and asked anxiously:

"Hey, Ye Lan, listen to what they are saying in there?"

Ye Lan frowned slightly, hesitated for a moment and said: "Mu Han said he wanted to marry..."

"Ah?" Su Ye became anxious when he heard it, and paced back and forth.

Ouyang Qingyu's eyes darkened and he asked, "What does Her Majesty the Empress say?"

Ye Lan listened carefully and said, "No reply yet."

Outside Zui Xiang Lou, everyone gathered together and started talking.

Situ Liufeng at the side said with a smile: "Do you think the empress will accept Mu Han? This is the in-law of the two countries."

Su Ye said hurriedly: "It's hard to say, this matter is not that simple."

Lu Mu was somewhat emotional: "If the empress agrees, then the two countries will truly be at peace."

Ye Lan looked at Ouyang Qingyu from the side and said, "But Mu Han from Zijin Country has made such a request. Can the Queen agree to it?"

Ouyang Qingyu's eyes were deep, and he only said: "No matter what the empress chooses, we just need to support her."

Su Ye approached Ouyang Qingyu, looked him up and down, and said in disbelief: "Why? Ouyang Qingyu, you're not jealous?"

Ouyang Qingyu smiled: "Whether you are jealous or not is a matter for the future."

At this time, in Zuixiang Tower, Lin Wanwan still did not speak.

She sat there quietly, her expression cold.

Mu Han's heart became more and more uncertain as she remained silent. He stared at Lin Wanwan closely, his eyes full of tension and expectation:

"I marry you?"
