Chapter 758: This is robbery
When Chu Shao Yang who had just arrived heard this, his face instantly turned red . He charged forward onto the stands and shouted, “Emperor, you mustn’t agree to his request, he… . . he… . . ”
He pointed at the carriage down below and wanted to say that what he wanted was clearly his princess .
Mo Chuan raised a hand and cut him off .
“King Ding Yuan, first calm down and let the crown prince finish talking . ”
Mo Chuan took a deep gaze at Na Mu Cuo and said in a deep voice, “What is the crown prince’s request? Let me hear it . ”
Na Mu Cuo said with a serious expression, “When this prince came to your rich country’s capital city, I had a deep sense that the capital was very rich . The people and customs were very different from my East Qin, so my heart was filled with envy . This prince wanted to marry someone from your country and take a girl from your country as this prince’s princess . Then my East Qin and the West Chu Country could build relations and come close together, becoming friends . What does the emperor feel about his?”
“Marriage? The crown prince’s meaning is that you want to take a girl from my West Chu Country as your princess?”
The one speaking was the silent Empress Dowager Zhou .
Na Mu Cuo’s words made her eyes light up . If this was true, it would be a very happy thing for West Chu’s interests!
The West Chu ministers were even more happy . If they weren’t worried about their country’s prestige, they would have applauded and cheered .
Hearing the crown prince’s words, it was clear that someone had caught his attention in West Chu . No matter who that person was, it was a happy matter for West Chu .
Hearing the crown prince’s words, it was clear that someone had caught his attention in West Chu . No matter who that person was, it was a happy matter for West Chu .
As long as they gave away a girl, they would be able to save a year’s worth of tribute, trading for a year of safety for the citizens . This was simply something they couldn’t beg for!
Chu Shao Yang’s face turned livid and his hands tightly formed fists, almost exploding .
He had already guessed this a long time ago . Since Na Mu Cuo said his first word, he had already guessed this .
This was robbery! This was clearly robbery!
Na Mu Cuo already knew that as long as he gave this request, he would be praised by everyone from West Chu . No one cared about a single woman, no matter who she was!
Even if she was the empress of West Chu, he was certain the emperor would agree to his request .
Even if she was the empress of West Chu, he was certain the emperor would agree to his request .
“Honourable Empress Dowager, this prince has already said it clearly . I have fallen for a girl from your country and wish to take her as my princess . I hope the Empress Dowager and the emperor can agree to this prince’s request . ”
Na Mu Cuo said courteously as he smiled at Empress Dowager Zhou .
“No! This king will definitely not agree!” Chu Shao Yang said through gritted teeth . His eyes were so sharp that they were like arrows shooting at Na Mu Cuo .
Na Mu Cuo curled his lips and revealed a sneer of disdain . He did not place Chu Shao Yang in his eyes at all .
“Honourable emperor, do your words count in your country or does a simple king make the decisions?”
Hearing this, Chu Shao Yang’s face instantly turned red and he pointed at Na Mu Cuo . He said through gritted teeth, “You… . You… . . ”
“Honourable emperor, do your words count in your country or does a simple king make the decisions?”
Hearing this, Chu Shao Yang’s face instantly turned red and he pointed at Na Mu Cuo . He said through gritted teeth, “You… . You… . . ”
“King Ding Yuan, this matter is not related to you, you’re not allowed to say anything else . ” Mo Chuan coldly looked at Chu Shao Yang .
The vein popped out on Chu Shao Yang’s forehead, “How can it not be related to me, the woman he likes is clearly… . . ”
“King Ding Yuan! If you dare speak nonsense, this one will have people take you out!” Mo Chuan cut him off again .
Chu Shao Yang bitterly closed his mouth . Of course he hoped that the woman Na Mu Cuo wanted to marry was not Chen Ning, but that was basically impossible!
His heart was filled with hate . He hated Na Mu Cuo and he hated Mo Chuan even more!
