The private plane slowly landed.
The staff of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs hurriedly went forward.
?
However, the cabin door was tightly shut.
The face of Chu Wen, the deputy director of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs from Land of Qin, who had led the team to welcome them, immediately turned ugly.
"If this were the previous dynasty..." Chu Wen snorted coldly.
If it were the previous dynasty, such a barbarian monarch of a small country could be directly dragged out and killed for being so rude.
However, the Federal Empire couldn't do that.
Therefore, Chu Wen could only endure it.
Etiquette was very important in diplomacy.
Moreover, foreign countries could be rude, but the Federal Empire couldn't.
The Federal Empire was a country of etiquette and benevolence since ancient times.
Etiquette was the face of the Empire.
It must not be damaged!
Especially the Ministry of Foreign Affairs - the purpose of the existence of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs was to protect the image of the Empire and establish the style of the Empire.
Chu Wen had no choice but to contact his superior.
He dialed the emergency number of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and transferred it to the Special Affairs Liaison Office.
After a series of beeps, the call was picked up.
"This is Chu Ming!"
"The Prince refuses to disembark..."
"He probably feels that my rank is too low!" Chu Wen laughed self-deprecatingly and sarcastically.
Thus, he received the authorization from the other side of the phone.
"The attitude of our Blackguard is..."
"If the Prince disembarks, we welcome him!"
"If the Prince doesn't want to disembark, we won't force him!"
The female voice on the other side of the phone was very calm, so calm that Chu Wen felt that the Blackguard didn't care about the Prince at all.
After hanging up the call, Chu Wen's brows slowly furrowed.
A moment later, he gave an order, "Let's go... Let's go have afternoon tea!"
As for that Prince?
Whatever!
...
Ludwig watched the eastern diplomats in front of the plane through the window and left together.
His eyes slowly narrowed.
His hands couldn't help clenching tightly.
The glass of wine in his hands shattered into pieces.
Vice Admiral Hurricane was already enraged!
But...
Ludwig raised his head. He could clearly feel that in the clouds above him, a long blade was pointing at him.
That was the Green Dragon Crescent Blade!
A divine weapon!
As long as he dared to act rashly, this divine blade would immediately fall.
Killing God and soul!
"Emperor Guan!" Ludwig became serious.
Poland's intelligence department still knew about this guardian god of the Federal Empire.
"It looks like... the degree of his awakening is very high!" Ludwig thought.
A sleeping God would not take the initiative to attack.
A large-scale ceremony was needed to wake him up. Only then would he be able to rely on his faith to display the power of a God.
After attacking, that God would inevitably fall into hibernation.
Only a God who had awakened to a certain degree would have the ability to actively interfere with the present world.
However...
"Is Beelzebub afraid of him, so he doesn't dare to enter this land?" Ludwig thought.
Beelzebub, the King of Hell, had already returned to Hell before entering this land.
Ludwig thought that he should be afraid of a God of the same level?
"He really has a deep foundation!" Ludwig sighed.
Thus, he knocked on the table.
Soon, a servant came in front of him and knelt on one knee, "Your Highness... What orders do you have?"
"Open the hatch!" Ludwig said, "Send someone to tell the Easterners..."
"I..."
"The Prince of Lithuania of Poland, the protector of Estonia, the captain of the Teutonic Knights, Count Denzel, Baron Bavaria, under the orders of my King, we will visit the Federal Empire of Xia and request a meeting with the respected lucky Emperor of Xia!"
"I need to receive the diplomatic courtesy and treatment that I deserve!"
As he said that, he took out a gold-plated letter from his briefcase and held it in his hand.
This country in the east had been lingering in the hearts of the people of Land of Qin since ancient times.
They were the country of elder John.
They were also the source of the whip of God.
They were also the Utopia in the east written by Rousseau, Hugo and the others.
But in the end, they eventually became the nightmare of Land of Qin.
From 300 years ago to today, it was a nightmare that could not be forgotten!
It could even be said that the predicament of Land of Qin today could not be separated from this country in the east!
"Our ancestors... 300 years ago, they once spread their weapons all over the world..."
"The Farans and the Butanians expanded thousands of miles in the Beizhou..."
"Francios and the Federal Republic of China ruled the vast Nanzhou Kingdom..."
"India is our dumping ground!"
"Nanyang is our source of spices and rubber..."
"Even in the east, we once invaded Fusang, coveted Xinluo, peeked at Cochin and even colonized the metropolitan territory of this eastern country!"
Ludwig stood up, countless thoughts surging in his mind.
That was the glorious and golden era of Land of Qin!
Unfortunately...
When the smoke of war in the east was extinguished, a brand new empire rose from the ruins and everything was different.
That day, a huge fleet sailed out of the ports.
The sails that covered the sky and sun continued to reach the Beizhou.
Tens of thousands of expeditionary troops pushed cannons and carried firearms, landing from the Beizhou.
They declared that they were the envoys of benevolence and righteousness, the defenders of morality.
They believed that the natives of the Beizhou and Nanzhou were all their compatriots who had separated three thousand years ago.
Hence, they had a natural obligation.
They were guilty of hanging people and they were asking for help from the heavens!
The hundred-year war was bloody.
The countries of the Land of Qin, even if they formed an alliance and sent out transcendent being, they were still defeated.
Thus, the golden era came to an end.
Land of Qin's suffering began.
As he recalled this history, Ludwig slowly clenched his fists.
"But we will not lose again!" He said.
"We cannot lose again!"
If they lost again, they would not just have to sign a contract.
They would not just give up on the colony because this was the era of the transcendent being!
It was also the era when the gods would awaken from their long slumber!
If he lost again...
Ludwig remembered the secrets of the Church of Bone.
He also remembered some of the secrets that Beelzebub had told him.
He understood...
In this era of the transcendent being, the recovery of spirit aura could already support the gods to become more active today.
If he continued to lose, the things he would lose would be something that Land of Qin couldn't bear!
...
The official letter of the Polish Kingdom was sent to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs through diplomatic channels.
As the liaison for special affairs, Li An'an saw the contents of the Polish letter of the Polish Kingdom on her computer.
She only took a glance and she was completely dumbfounded.
"How dare they!" Li An'an's hands were trembling.
"How dare they make such a rude request to our country!"
The contents of the national letter were very short. After being translated into the language of the Empire, it was very straightforward.
The Kingdom of Poland proposed a marriage alliance with the Federal Empire.
Its King proposed to the Emperor of the Empire.
He requested for the Prince of Lithuania, Ludwig, to marry the first princess of the Empire, Royal Highness Rouan.
This was a provocation!
A blatant provocation!
Everyone knew that Emperor Taizu did not like the previous dynasty but he praised the previous dynasty's backbone.
No marriage, no loss of land, no compensation.
The Emperor guarded the country's door and the Emperor died!
If the previous dynasty was like this, how could the Federal Empire not be like it?
Ring, ring...
The phone rang.
Li An'an picked up the phone.
Zhang Hui's voice came from the phone, "Major Li, have you seen the national letter?"
Li An'an nodded, "I have!"
"What do you think, Major Li?" Zhang Hui asked.
Li An'an was slightly stunned, "General... I don't dare to express my opinion on such a big matter!"
"Tell me..." Zhang Hui smiled and raised his eyebrows on the other side of the phone.
He knew that the koi carp's attitude could be indirectly seen as the attitude of the ancient God.
Li An'an said without hesitation, "This subordinate's opinion is... that he's dreaming!"
Although it was now modern, some things were still rooted in the hearts of the people of the Empire.
Zhang Hui listened and chuckled, "He's indeed dreaming!"
Putting down the phone, Zhang Hui put on his coat and said to his secretary, "Get ready, let's go to the airport!"
"Let's meet that Vice Admiral Hurricane!"
He gently moved his wrist.
Before he was injured, Zhang Hui's reputation had spread far and wide!
Now that he had fully recovered from his injuries, he was only a step away from the admiral.
He had also cultivated the book of reason, so his strength was no longer on the same level as before!
With a light wave of his hand, the magic sword that had not been used for many years fell into his hand.
The Messenger of Hell!
This was his nickname in the past!
With one strike of the sword, he would definitely kill!
...
Ling Ping'an walked on the streets of the imperial city that was filled with people.
He stroked his pet.
"Strange..." he said, "The fragrance is gone..."
Meow!
The kitten meowed softly.
Behind Ling Ping'an, Chu Weiwei heard his muttering and became curious, "Young master, what fragrance do you smell?"
"A very delicious fragrance!" Ling Ping'an said, "Unfortunately, I can't smell it now!"
He swallowed his saliva as he spoke.
The fragrance he smelled just now was really fragrant!
Ling Ping'an even had a feeling that even if he didn't sprinkle salt or add seasoning, that thing only needed to be simply grilled and it would make a child cry!
This was really the best ingredient for a gourmet!
Unfortunately...
The fragrance had already disappeared.
"Don't you guys smell it?" Ling Ping'an turned around and asked.
Chu Weiwei shook her head and Hu Nuonuo also shook her head.
Ling Ping'an said, "Maybe I'm hallucinating!"
At this moment, his phone rang.
Ling Ping'an picked it up and looked. It was his aunt.
"Hello!" He picked up the phone."Aunt, are you off work?"
"Yes!" On the other side of the phone, Li An'an's voice sounded, but she seemed a little unhappy.
Ling Ping'an couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong?"
Li An'an sighed, "Nothing... I'll come and pick you up right away back to the Luming Villa!"
"Oh!" Ling Ping'an nodded.
...
Ludwig sat in his seat, the iron armor on his head flashing with an inexplicable color.
He knew that there was a strong person approaching.
He could sense the movement of the other party's psionic power.
It was quiet and mysterious, as deep as the Abyss and as vast as the starry sky.
"Is it that commander-in-chief?" Ludwig could not help but hold his weapon, a huge double-handed heavy sword!
It was a quasi-god weapon forged from the star stones he had traded with the Greek gods.
It weighed several thousand pounds!
More importantly, it was incomparably sharp!
After Beelzebub's casting, it was added with two divine spells, plague and bleeding.
If struck by this sword, even a transcendent being would be invaded by the plague and fall into weakness. Moreover, the wound would not heal and it would bleed for life!
Ludwig knew that if that commander-in-chief came personally, this sword would not be able to save him because the commander-in-chief had already half a foot in the domain of the gods!
In this era where the gods could not fully awaken, he was the strongest existence on Earth.
He could even kill gods!
The Evil God from Nanyang had died in his hands and he had fallen completely!
"He really gave me face!" Ludwig thought.
However...
He wasn't afraid.
The biggest problem of the easterners was that they loved face, liked to talk about benevolence, justice, morality and valued procedural justice.
Therefore, when the two countries fought, they wouldn't kill their envoys.
He wouldn't be in danger.
This was something that had been confirmed before they came!
Didn't you see that even Alucard could move freely in this country?
But even though he knew, Ludwig was still nervous.
The name of a man, the shadow of a tree!
Commander-in-chief of the Blackguard, who wouldn't be afraid?
Raising his head, Ludwig looked at the seat opposite him.
A man wearing black clothes, glasses and a scarf appeared in front of him.
He was holding a long and narrow magic sword.
A name flashed through Ludwig's mind.
Blackguard's lieutenant general, Zhang Hui!
Grand Secretariat of Internal Affairs, Palace Guardian!
Yama's envoy!
But...
Wasn't he heavily injured and about to die?
How...
Ludwig looked at the person in front of him.
His breath was long and his psionic power was surging. His eyes were filled with confusion.
What kind of heavily injured person was that?
Ludwig could feel that this person had already stepped into the realm of an admiral!
He could become an admiral at any time!
Admiral!
One person was equivalent to a heavy-armored mechanized army!
A heavy-armored mechanized army that was equipped with artillery divisions, air defense brigades and air assault brigades!
It could destroy a country or massacre a city!
In front of it, nuclear weapons were more or less the same as firecrackers.
To the admiral, those so-called strategic missiles that flew slowly in the atmosphere could not aim at him at all, let alone lock onto him.
Even if he was hit by a hydrogen bomb, it would be difficult to kill such a person.
Because...
The admiral was already close to God.
As long as there was one cell left alive, the admiral could be reborn!
To truly kill an admiral, other than God, there was only the admiral himself!
For example, the Faran Emperor did not have much time left in his body and his qi and blood were exhausted.
Hence, he took the initiative to enter death and was buried in the Honor Military Academy.
But was he really dead?
That might not be the case.
Perhaps, when the concentration of the recovery of spirit aura rose again, he would return from his eternal slumber.
But...
Even the Faran Emperor had to take the initiative to be buried because of his serious injuries.
What was the deal with this envoy of Yama who was said to only be able to attack twice more before collapsing?
How did he recover from his injuries?
Also, how did he break through?
Ludwig stared at the other party.
"Your Excellency General, you brought your Yama sword here..." Ludwig was silent for a long time before he spoke in a very pure federal official's tone, "Are you going to take my head?"
Due to the strength of the Federal Empire, the nobles of Land of Qin were even more familiar with the eastern culture than their own country!
For example, Ludwig had read the romance of the Three Kingdoms, read the outlaws of the marsh and even understood the dream of the red chamber.
He also knew how to recite poems, knew flat tones and knew the rhythm.
He was even more familiar with the eastern history and allusions.
Zhang Hui chuckled and said, "Your Highness..."
"Our country never turns on our guests with swords!"
"Even if they are evil guests, they will only chase them out of their homes!"
Ludwig naturally understood the hidden meaning behind this.
He laughed, "Your country's sage said, 'a graceful lady is a good match for a gentleman!'"
"I admire your country's eldest princess and sincerely ask for her hand in marriage... Am I wrong?"
Zhang Hui laughed coldly and did not reply.
He only looked at the Vice Admiral Hurricane coldly. The sword in his hand rippled.
As Ludwig watched, he understood that the other party's attitude was actually telling him that he was in the wrong!
And it was a huge mistake!
As for where the mistake was?
For some reason, the easterners wouldn't say it out loud.
But Ludwig could guess...
Three hundred years ago, the easterners wrote down that the people of Land of Qin were described as 'red-haired ghosts'or 'red-haired barbarians'.
To the easterners, even in the eyes of Fusang and Cochin people, Land of Qin and Kunlun State were also uncivilized and barren lands.
This was also the purpose of his trip.
By marrying the ruler of the east, the honorable eldest princess of this country, he could destroy their arrogance psychologically!
This was also an attempt that he had been planning for a long time.
Once he succeeded, not only would he be able to win against the east, he could also use this to establish his prestige in the entire Land of Qin!
I could even marry the princess of the East!
You guys, hurry up and kneel down and praise the great Polish Kingdom!
With this, the Holy Roman Empire's crown could be worn on the head of the Polish royal family without bloodshed!
