Chapter 763 - Is he bluffing with me? (2/2)

” Master Wen Ru, there is no option other than the peace treaty to solve this situation. Many of our men have lost their lives in this unannounced war and the property has been damaged severely causing a heavy loss to the resources.” The military chief glanced at Ji Cheng after he said his words, waiting for his response.

” Send a message to Xiao Rougang from our side to have a meeting.” After being silent for a while, Ji Cheng finally opened his mouth, which shocked Wen Ru.

He wants to meet that old-prideful man?

” Your Majesty, do you think he will accept your request for the meeting? The way he has announced the war, I don't think he will be in the senses to meet you and talk about a solution here.” Wen Ru reasoned.

Ji Cheng glanced at him and smirked, ” He will agree to our request. Feng Ju, send someone to pass a message that I will give to you to King Xiao Ruogang, the person should be reliable and someone whom you can trust.”

” Yes, Your Majesty. I will do that.”

Xiao Ruogang was resting in his tent, which was built near the border area. Since Ji Dynasty was not his neighbor country, he has to take permission to build their tents in the country closer to the eastern border of the Ji dynasty since this was the border he was in the charge of.

” Your Majesty, you have received a message from Emperor Ji Cheng.” A guard entered the tent and bowed to him as he informed him about the arrival of the message from Ji Cheng.

Xiao Ruogang was surprised as he was not expecting Ji Cheng to send any messages to him amid the war.

However, this news alleviated his mood, the almighty Emperor Ji Cheng was once again caught up in the situation where he had to beg him to save his country. Last time, to help Ji Cheng, he has betrothed Xiao Li with him, in the marriage alliance.

However, this time he was the one going against him, to avenge his daughter's death. Ji Cheng might have hurt Xiao Li thinking that she is alone and no one will object to his actions, however, he forgot that her father is still alive and powerful enough to avenge her death.

” Hah! Does he think that I will agree to his request for a peace treaty? In his wild dreams. I will never back out from this war unless I ruin this Ji Dynasty.” He said firmly while clutching his fists, remembering how his daughter was sent to the cold palace, to die alone in that horrible place.

The guard bowed and was preparing to leave the man when he was stopped by him, ” Wait. Pass this message to me.”

The guard walked to him,  handed the scroll to him, and bowed to him once again before leaving the room.

Xiao Ruogang opens the scroll to read what message Ji Cheng has sent for him. He raised his brows as he started reading it, however, his brows started to knit together when he was half-through the message.

” Is he bluffing with me?” He was speechless as the contents of the message seemed unreal to him.
