Zhou Zhou's jaw dropped open and he staggered away.
When Great Qi sent troops to Luzon, the king of Luzon was so grateful that tears streamed down his face. On the other hand, the Portuguese and Western countries were shocked and came to look for Qi Haoran overnight. After being rejected, they turned around and went to protest to Fan Zijin.
Fan Zijin widened his eyes and looked at them. "Luzon is a vassal state of Great Qi. The refugees of your two countries have been reduced to pirates who have forcefully occupied the land of my vassal state. It's only because His Majesty is considerate of the fact that your countries are far away that he didn't hold you accountable for your negligence. Now, you're actually protesting against the soldiers of my dynasty rescuing the citizens of our vassal state? Could it be that those pirates are actually not refugees but soldiers of your two countries in disguise?"
