"If you don't make a decision faster, you may still have a harsh situation in the future!"

The sentence Yang Zimu finally summed up is not so much an admonition to Su Mu and others, but rather a threat to nakedness.

After all, the source of this turmoil is the Emperor Longtuo who cannot see through.

And Yang Zimu, who said this at this time, had no sign of guilt at all. Instead, he looked at Su Mu who had been away with a slight smile with his eyes slightly mockingly.

Then he said something softly, something that made Su Mu slightly awe-inspiring:

"You should still remember that after leading troops to the Federal Border Fortress for assistance, I once told you personally... What the empire really requires has never been a price that can be provided by the Federation, but a price that comes from Su Mu himself."

"And now it seems that what this price is actually so obvious. As long as you agree to Your Majesty's third request, the grudge between you and the empire will be completely zeroed... Even from now on, you will not only have the high hopes of the Federation, but also enjoy the honor of being the son-in-law of the Longtuo."

Su Mu obviously did not expect that the conditions that Yang Zimu mentioned at that time were the forced that was now placed in front of him.

Although the fact that the imperial emperor has long been prepared for this has become well-known news.

But even Yang Zimu, who went deep into the abyss together, understood this, which obviously made Su Mu and the other two more confused about the reasons behind all this.

...

"Can you tell me the logic directly about the reason why Your Majesty has asked this?"

There is no hesitation, no tactfulness at all.

As Yang Zimu came to visit as a "messenger", Su Mu was extremely decisive and asked the biggest doubt in his heart so bluntly.

Although Su Mu and Su Tong were both too shocked by the third condition during the dialogue between the palace three days ago, they did not really dare to ask a rhetoric question.

But over the past three days, the empire's operations have become increasingly confused.

But now Su Mu and others have speculated that there is no progress at all.

So at this moment, Su Mu simply completely abandoned his due modesty and asked this confusion in such an unexpected form.

I have to say that Su Mu's sudden question indeed surprised Yang Zimu.

It seemed that he hadn't expected that Su Mu would be so unruly.

However, in surprise, Yang Zimu's eyes when he looked at Su Mu did not change at all.

There was no trace of loophole that could be captured by Su Mu.

"You can only ask Your Majesty himself directly. If Your Majesty himself is unwilling to say more, I naturally cannot give you any answers or hints."

"As for how you can meet Your Majesty and the sincerity that you must bring to meet Your Majesty again, I believe that with your intelligence, this is not a problem for you at all."

"So the key to the question is actually only... Have you thought of the final answer about your marriage with His Royal Highness?"

"Only when you figure this out, you can understand more possibilities."

...

When Yang Zimu finished the above answer, he said goodbye and left the State Guesthouse again.

What Yang Zimu brought about this trip was undoubtedly a certain determination from the empire.

The slight demonstrations are now becoming increasingly arrogant external public opinion.

As for the core logic that Su Mu and the other two really care about, Yang Zimu neither intends to give an explanation, nor seems to be impossible to give an explanation.

Everything is still shrouded in the vast fog.

Even at this moment, with Yang Zimu's farewell and leaving, Qin Dong, who went out to inquire about the news again, brought back an even more surprising report:

"Since this evening, more and more imperial residents have been gathered by the Dragon Pond outside the Meridian Gate of the Imperial City. So far, at least nearly 10,000 people have gathered there."

"If I'm not mistaken, I'm afraid that the grand occasion that has not appeared in a century will appear again in the imperial city tonight because of this incident in front of me!"

Although anyone can see the seriousness of the matter from this news brought back by Qin Dong.

After all, the gathering of tens of thousands of people naturally cannot cause a huge sensation.

However, Su Mu and Lu Xi were not residents of the empire after all, so they did not understand the meaning of this self-gathering outside the Meridian Gate of the Imperial City.

Only Su Tong, who truly grew up in this city, had a more awe-inspiring and sharp expression.

...

"Dear, Sister Lu Xi, you should still remember now... When I lied to you to go to Queqiao Pool, I mentioned that the place known as the three scenic spots of the imperial capital, in addition to the Magqiao Pool that we have been to, there are also two places such as Dragon Pool and Ask Daoshi."

"And the so-called Dragon Pond actually refers to the living pond outside the Meridian Gate of the Imperial City."

"And compared to the Magpie Bridge Pond, which symbolizes love, and the Assassination Stone with philosophical artistic conception, the Sacrifice Dragon Pond among the three scenes is actually not special. The reason why Sacrifice Dragon Pond is ranked among the three scenes is that it is actually because..."

Speaking of this, the awe-inspiring look in Su Tong's eyes was getting more and more excited.

Because the so-called sacrifice to the Dragon Pond is something with a very symbolic meaning, and the behavior of people gathering to sacrifice to the Dragon Pond itself is a grand occasion that even the imperial royal family is difficult to control.

"The so-called sacrifice to the Dragon Pond was originally not intended, and it was indeed just built as a decoration outside the imperial city, and it has no meaning in itself."

"But what gives the halo of sacrifice to the Dragon Pond is some kind of promise from the founding emperor."

"According to the historical records of the imperial capital of the founding emperor, many of the effects that he had tamed by him were specially sent to ask... Since they paid tribute to the majesty of the empire and had most of the permanent military armor removed, then once the countries were in trouble, would the empire support without hesitation?"

"In fact, this question itself has no meaning. Because everyone knows that what the empire most hoped for at that time was to completely swallow them up after the decline of the countries."

"But this hidden attitude naturally cannot be used to respond to the country of magistrates."

"So the founding emperor at that time answered to the visitor with great opportunity: 'If you want all people to come to pay tribute, I will definitely listen to your wishes'. Otherwise, even if your tribute to the empire is not pious enough, the empire will naturally not respond."

Speaking of this, Su Tong paused slightly, and then finally concluded:

"This oral order has naturally not been used by any small country. After all, the original intention of the founding emperor was to prevent them from designing the conditions so harshly."

"But what the founding emperor never thought was that in the subsequent change of imperial power, there was a rebellious prince who happened to take advantage of the grand occasion of "praying to all people" to achieve the conditions to consolidate his orthodox status. Even since then, the Longtan Sacrifice has been involved in various royal struggles for a long time."

"In other words, today's Dragon Pond does have a certain effect of reaching the heavenly hearing. As long as the news is conveyed through the 'Prayer of Ten Thousand People', it seems that even the reigning imperial royal family must be treated with caution."

"And now, since the father deliberately fanned the grand occasion of the Dragon Pond, the intention to express this 'Ten Thousand People' is already so obvious!"
