The Visit of the Crown Prince

The journey to the royal palace by Lu Suifeng resembled a battle without smoke and swords, a contest of wit and intelligence.

A momentary lapse in concentration would lead to falling into the opponent’s calculations, making it difficult to extricate oneself.

Now, having safely left the palace, Lu Suifeng couldn’t help but feel a slight perspiration on his back.

The game of wits with the monarch was indeed mentally taxing, but fortunately, it yielded fruitful results, providing some solace.

Along the way, Lu Suifeng began to carefully calculate his next move.

There was a deeper meaning behind his choice to approach Tianfeng City, close to the Western County.

He was contemplating how to strike a deal with Marquis Yi, exchanging Tianfeng City for Hongye City.

Trading a large city for a smaller one seemed like a foolish act that even a fool wouldn’t do.

Was Lu Suifeng really that foolish?

The answer was self-evident.

Each party would gain what they needed.
