Lord Survival: My Shelter in Crocodile Territory

He knew very well his current situation.

He was just a bird in a cage. It didn't matter whether he said it or not.

He might as well continue to act crazy and stupid.

Wang Shuo showed a complicated look. With a wave of his hand, the imperial edict returned to Wang Shuo's hand and turned away.

The second prince looked at Wang Shuo's departing back and clenched his fist, but there was no expression on his face.

Wang Shuo returned to the court, and Zhao Bangde and others had arrived.

"Everyone, tell me about this matter, how should we make a decision!"

Those present who had the right to speak were nothing more than the prime minister, the national teacher, and the general.

No one else spoke. After the founding of the country, everyone gradually became cautious.

Zhao Bangde took the lead and said: "Your Majesty, the seventh prince is currently the emperor of the Shenwu Empire. If we accept his canonization, we will have no excuse to attack him."

"Old Zhao, if we accept his canonization, there will be many benefits. At least other major forces will have no excuse to target us."

Wang Shuo actually thought a lot, and he is no longer satisfied with staying away from a corner.

Zhao Bangde saw that Wang Shuo didn't speak, so he asked: "Your Majesty, do you want to replace the Shenwu Empire?"

Wang Shuo smiled but didn't say anything.

The high-level officials of the Wana Empire are no longer the struggling little people they were before.

With a higher position, there are naturally higher pursuits.

"In that case, let's ignore this "imperial edict"!"

"Just make your attitude clear." Ayub looked murderous.

Zhao Bangde said: "Even if we want to overthrow the Shenwu Empire, it would be better to accept this canonization temporarily and then accumulate strength."

Wang Shuo pondered for a while.

"Guliji, tell us about the current strength of those first-level empires."

Wang Shuo wanted to see if he was qualified to confront them now.

"Your Majesty, the number of the strongest kings in the three first-level empires we have discovered so far is basically about 15 people."

Wang Shuo nodded, which was about the same as he expected.

Even if they are hiding something, the number will not be too many, at most a few more people.

"Everyone, if we clearly state that we stand against them, how likely are they to unite and attack us?"

"Your Majesty, I think it's almost impossible."

Duan Wenxi said with a bow.

"Uh!? Tell me."

Duan Wenxi cleared his throat and added: "At present, most empires are still in war, and they have their own conflicts."

"Even a few first-level empires are temporarily maintaining peace. They are like us, always thinking about annexing each other and unifying the Shenwu Empire."

Wang Shuo nodded after hearing this. He didn't expect that Duan Wenxi had some sense.

"If we openly oppose the seventh prince, maybe we can form an alliance with some people who also want to overthrow the Shenwu Empire."

"Well, very good, then we refuse!"

"If you want to confer the title on me, the seventh prince is not qualified yet."

After the court meeting, Feng Ming, who had been waiting for a long time, stood in the living room and paced back and forth.

He was inclined to believe that Wang Shuo should accept the title, which would be more in line with the interests of a newly established dynasty.

A waiter came to Feng Ming with a message.

"Special Envoy Feng, His Majesty has decided to refuse the title."

"The special envoy can stay in the empire for a while, or leave immediately, and His Majesty will not send anyone to see the special envoy off."

After the waiter finished speaking, he left.
