Chapter 192
"Pegasus City was conquered by this prince, so she is naturally his prisoner."
Qin Yu said in a deep voice.
The Emperor of Chu's expression became even uglier, and the last glimmer of hope in his heart was completely shattered.
"Father! The people of Daliang massacred everyone in Pegasus City. All the elite troops of our Chu State were wiped out."
Chu Yu said in a deep voice.
"Crown Prince of Daliang! I know I made a mistake by going abroad. From today on, my Chu State is a vassal state of Daliang. Moreover, I can sign a vassal agreement with Daliang!"
The King of Chu gritted his teeth.
"Haha! If you could think this way from the beginning, there would be no problem, but unfortunately, my army has come charging in. Do you think I still need Chu to be a vassal state?"
Qin Yu asked back with a sneer.
"You! Are you really going to destroy my Great Chu?"
The King of Chu was shocked.
"Why would I go to so much trouble if I don't destroy you? I want you to issue the last imperial decree of your life: the Chu Kingdom will be destroyed, and its territory will be given to Daliang!"
Qin Yu said coldly.
"You are wishful thinking!"
The King of Chu couldn't help but curse.
He didn't expect that Qin Yu not only wanted the Chu State to be destroyed, but also wanted him, the King of Chu, to declare the Chu State destroyed himself. If he issued this imperial decree, he would surely be cursed for all eternity!
"Haha! If you don't issue this imperial decree, everyone here today will die, and the Chu State will still be destroyed!"
"But if you issue this imperial decree, not only will this prince spare your life, he will also grant you the title of marquis, and the land of Chu will remain your fiefdom!"
Qin Yu said with a sneer.
"Your Majesty! Promise him!"
The ministers of Chu State spoke one after another.
Qin Yu sneered as he glanced at the ministers of Chu State, then looked at Chu Yu and whispered, "Well, do you understand now? The Chu State was actually destroyed a long time ago!"
Chu Yu's face was extremely ugly. He couldn't refute what Qin Yu said!
As the eldest princess of the Chu State, she was not originally qualified to own a fiefdom. However, because the number one family in Pegasus City wanted to marry her, the eldest princess, she got Pegasus City as her fiefdom!
Both Pegasus City and Tiefeng City are garrisoned by elite troops, while the Chu Imperial City is only guarded by a few old, weak and sick people. Even the Chu general Wu Ziqi is from an aristocratic family.
The State of Chu had long been in name only!
"Father! His Royal Highness is right. Our Chu State has long existed in name only. Our Chu State's officials, apart from their greed for pleasure, have no patriotic feelings at all!"
"Even if the Chu Kingdom survives for another thousand or ten thousand years, the fate of our Chu royal family will not be in our own hands, but in the hands of those aristocratic families!"
"Rather than this, why not give up the State of Chu and become a prince?"
Chu Yu said loudly.
This!
What Chu Yu said completely exposed the fig leaf of the Chu officials!
"Your Majesty! We, your subjects, also have our grievances to share!"
"That's right! The aristocratic families of Chu are the most powerful. Even the appointment and dismissal of officials like us are decided by the aristocratic families. How dare we go against them?"
......
Officials complained bitterly.
The expression of the King of Chu gradually darkened. He knew that even if he did not accept Qin Yu's request, after Qin Yu killed him, these officials would declare the Chu State destroyed.
"Alright! I will issue an order now, declaring the Chu Kingdom destroyed!"
The King of Chu gritted his teeth.
"Alright! You will issue an edict now. The Chu State will be destroyed and its territory will be renamed Daliang Haizhou. Once this imperial edict is announced to the world, this prince will immediately lead his troops out of the imperial city!"
Qin Yu said coldly.
Immediately, the King of Chu asked someone to bring the imperial edict, wrote it in public, and had a famous person announce it to the world on a fast horse!
