Chapter 974 - 450: The Supreme Queen!_2
This kind of all-or-nothing gambling, in its craziness, was completely comparable to Zhi Li’s last-moment assassination of the King to forcibly ascend the throne.
Was King Zibian that confident in Suo Lun at the time? Not necessarily, it was more of a case of love for the house extending to the crow on the roof, as well as a readiness to risk everything.
"A puppet, not necessarily!" Priest Yan Ping said: "But from now on, it is true that Rage Wave Kingdom is controlled by Yin Zhou. Let’s say we take a step back; after your compromise, you’ll only have sixty percent of Rage Wave Kingdom, with the remaining forty percent stolen by Yin Zhou. But you still have sixty percent, don’t you? And if you go crazy with Suo Lun, then the whole Rage Wave Kingdom is ruined, and what you get is zero."
"No!" Zhen Yan Princess quietly said: "Priest Yan Ping, if we take the most extreme measures and confiscate the property of all the nobles in the capital, using their Gold Coins to get through this crisis, what do you think is the worst outcome?"
Yan Ping said: "The whole kingdom in chaos, warlords divided, you and Suo Lun become the enemies of the world."
Zhen Yan Princess said: "Right, that is the worst of the worst outcomes. But... so what?"
Yan Ping was astonished and said: "Your kingdom has already collapsed, what more do you want?"
Zhen Yan Princess shook her head and said: "Just as you said, the kingdom in chaos, warlords divided. I will follow my husband back to Tianshui City and ascend the throne there. In that case, among the warlords, wouldn’t we be the strongest?"
Yan Ping was astonished again; indeed, if it came to that point, Suo Lun and Zhi Yan, the couple, would certainly be the strongest.
