Chương 478: 243 Toughness (Second Change)

When the news reached the Imperial Palace, the emperor was in the Imperial Study Room discussing a peace negotiation between two nations with several ministers.

Zhan Country and Chen Country had fought quite a few wars, with Zhan Country greatly weakened as a result. The nation's treasury has been in a state of semi-insolvency for several years now, and Liang Country is so powerful that it pays no mind to Zhan Country at all.

During this peace negotiation, Liang Country's attitude was unyieldingly strong, leaving absolutely no room for concessions.

The emperor and the elder statesmen were turning grey with worry.

And then, out of nowhere, the prince sent word - Liang Country was willing to make concessions, and the condition was just a child?

"What sort of child?" the emperor asked.

An emissary from Liang Country said, "An orphan. The prince and his wife took a liking to the child and want to adopt him. As a reward, the prince will make concessions during the peace talks."
