When the news of Donghai City was sent back to Xuanwu City, even people who were several miles away could feel the oppressive atmosphere in the air.

Xuan Mo looked at Xuan Kun, who was tens of meters away, with unconcealable anger jumping in his eyes.

"Xuan Kun, is this what you told me?!"

Xuan Mo roared angrily.

"Brother, I..."

Xuan Kun looked unwilling, he tried to argue, but couldn't say anything.

After all, it is an indisputable fact that he abandoned the city because of impatience!

"Brother, please let me go to the Martial God Empire to seek justice for the people of Donghai City!"

"Even if I die in the Valkyrie Empire, I will make the Valkyrie Empire pay the price!"

Xuan Kun gritted his teeth and said, the terrifying murderous intent enveloped him, his anger seemed to be able to ignite everything!

Looking at Xuan Kun who had already lost his mind, Xuan Mo put away his anger,

He shook his head in disappointment, and then said to a minister: "Send someone to the Martial God Empire and ask the other side to withdraw their troops."

"My Xuanling Empire is willing to pay some price!"

The minister nodded and said, "Yes, Your Majesty!"

Hearing the conversation between the two, Xuan Kun had an incredulous look on his face.

"Brother Huang, why?!"

"Why compromise with that damned Valkyrie Empire, we can completely defeat it!"

Xuan Kun said loudly, resisting Xuan Mo's order.

Hearing this, the expression in Xuan Mo's eyes suddenly turned cold.

He said coldly: "Xuan Kun, as the third prince of the Xuanling Empire and my third younger brother, you are so short-sighted!"

"Did you forget that our real enemy now is the parliament?!"

"The war with the parliament is imminent. Even if you stay in Donghai City for a day, the Martial God Empire will not march for a day. But in this way, a Martial King strongman of our royal family will be dragged in Donghai City!"

"Waste your vitality on the Martial God Empire. Could it be that you hope that the royal family of the Xuanling Empire will be overthrown by the damn parliament, and the rules of the ages will be completely broken?!"

Xuan Mo said in an unquestionable tone, he waved his hand, and ordered the former minister to leave with his will.

...

Three days later, the Martial God Empire, the imperial city.

Su Chen looked at the letter sent from the Xuanling Empire, and he replied lightly: "I want the Xuanling Empire to formally apologize to our Martial God Empire, and at the same time, compensate twice the military expenditure of the Sunset Army! Only in this way can our Martial God Empire Retire!"

Hearing this, the envoy of the Xuanling Empire didn't say much, just bowed slightly, and then backed away.

This envoy is just a person in charge of delivering the message. He is not qualified to make decisions for the Xuanling Empire, let alone contradict Su Chen face to face.

After the envoy of the Xuanling Empire left, Su Chen looked at the Minister of the Ministry of War not far below, and said, "Shangshu of the Ministry of War, pass on my order to General Nangong of the Sunset Army, and let him lead the soldiers of the Sunset Army back. "

"By the way, tell them for me, you have worked hard!"

Hearing Su Chen's words, the Minister of War was stunned for a moment.

He was a little puzzled and said: "Your Majesty, the Xuanling Empire may not agree to your request. Is it too hasty for us to retreat like this?"

Facing the question from Minister of the Ministry of War, Su Chen smiled and said, "Don't worry, the Xuanling Empire will definitely agree."

"After all, the Xuanling Empire, which is facing internal and external troubles, still has to fight against the riots in the parliament, so how can it still have the energy to deal with us?!"

Hearing this, the Minister of the Ministry of War stopped talking.

"Understood, I thank Your Majesty on behalf of General Nangong and the soldiers of the Sunset Army!"

After the Minister of the Ministry of War finished speaking, he withdrew from the palace.

...

Another three days later.

Xuanling Empire, Xuanwu City.

royal palace.

"Double military compensation?! Brother Huang, you must not agree, otherwise, what will be the face of my Xuanling Empire?!"

Seeing the contents on this list, Xuan Kun couldn't help being furious.

However, when he saw Xuan Mo's expressionless face, he was startled, and he quickly persuaded him.

You know, according to the list, the military expenses that the Xuanling Empire needs to compensate is a full 100 million gold coins!

This is equivalent to half a year's income of the Xuanling Empire!

What's more, now the Xuanling Empire's right to collect taxes has been forcibly taken away by the parliament half a month ago.

The tax carriage that was supposed to be sent to the palace was robbed by the parliament on the way, and the fact that the right to collect taxes belonged to the parliament was forcibly legalized under the manipulation of hundreds of aristocrats.

The current royal family of the Xuanling Empire is already at a disadvantage in terms of capital. The military compensation of 100 million gold coins can already be said to be traumatic for the royal family of the Xuanling Empire!

Not only Xuan Kun, but even the ministers of the Xuanling Empire below began to speak out against it.

"Your Majesty, we must never agree!"

"Yeah, it's a small waste of people and money, but it's a big loss of the face of my Xuanling Empire!"

"The actions of the Valkyrie Empire are nothing but extortion, and they are not gentlemen! Your Majesty, we must not compromise with this evil force!"

A group of ministers of the Xuanling Empire came forward one after another.

However, facing the dissuasion of Xuan Kun and the ministers of the Xuanling Empire, Xuan Mo just shook his head.

He glanced at the court indifferently, and said: "I have agreed to the compensation that the Martial God Empire needs. In addition, I will send a minister to apologize for me going to the Martial God Empire!"

"What?!"

All the ministers couldn't help but exclaimed.

It was hard for them to imagine why His Majesty, who was usually brilliant and mighty, would be so stupid today!

Facing the questioning or puzzled gazes of the ministers, Xuan Mo finally began to explain.

"Our primary goal now is not the Martial God Empire, nor the great northern empires, but the damn parliament!"

"This council is so rampant, not only snatching my power, but also secretly cultivating private soldiers, intending to rebel!"

"It is said that we must first settle down in order to fight against the outside world. If we want to spare enough energy to deal with external enemies like the Martial God Empire, we must first completely resolve the internal worries of the Xuanling Empire!"

"Only by eliminating the parliament and maintaining the unity of the Xuanling Empire, can we launch a war against the Martial God Empire and truly regain the face of our Xuanling Empire!"

"But before that, I am determined to adopt a non-resistance strategy against the small actions of the Valkyrie Empire, so as to concentrate all my strength on dealing with and destroying the Parliament!"

"What do you guys think?!"

Xuan Mo finished his plan in a cold voice, and then looked back at the officials and members of the royal family in the court.

His gaze was cold, as if anyone who dared to resist his order would be swallowed alive by him!

Under the oppression of Xuan Mo's cold gaze, these ministers of the Xuanling Empire had to bite the bullet and lower their heads, then cupped their hands and said: "Your Majesty is holy!"

Even Xuan Kun, who had been objecting all this time, couldn't help taking a step back at this time, expressing his attitude with silence.
