Nangong Wenxuan led the crowd to storm the post house where the envoys of the Western Zhou Dynasty were located, and the deputy envoy of the Western Zhou Dynasty died for some reason!

This news spread at the speed of light in the Tianjing City, and in the afternoon of the same day, Pang Yidian dressed in formal clothes and came to the gate of the Southern Chu Palace with the Tiger Tail Festival, asking to meet Emperor Tianyao and ask for an explanation for Mao Xinliang's death.

Half an hour later, Emperor Tianyao, who had not been in charge for a long time, sent someone out of the palace to reply.

Quasi-Zhou made Pang Yidian enter the palace to see the driver.

It is still the dormitory of Emperor Tianyao

The chief eunuch of Nanchu Da Nei and the shadow supervisor Zheng Sangjie, holding the dust in his hand, looked at Pang Yidian, who was led by the eunuch, and smiled slightly.

"Our mulberry festival has seen the Zhou envoy."

"It turned out to be Father-in-law Sang, Pang Mou was polite."

Sang Jie, as the chief of the shadow supervisor, can be regarded as a powerful eunuch in the Three Kingdoms, before Pang Yidian sent to Nanchu, he had already done his homework to the high-level officials of Southern Chu, and Sang Jie was naturally no exception.

Emperor Tianyao was still waiting in the dormitory, and Sang Jie did not dare to slack off, so he simply said hello to Pang Yidian, and personally took the other party into the dormitory.

……………

Different from the extravagance and sophistication of ordinary palaces, the layout of Emperor Tianyao's bedroom is very simple, and at the same time full of Taoist style.

There is a big Tai Chi pattern hanging on the roof of the dormitory, surrounded by green smoke, accompanied by a faint whisper, listening to the sound, it should be someone hitting the copper in the dark.

There is also a copper alchemy furnace in the middle of the hall, several children dressed as Taoist children are taking care of the furnace fire, there is a cloud bed with exquisite workmanship not far behind the Dan furnace, and an old man with hair and a pure white Taoist robe is sitting cross-legged on the cloud bed, meditating with his eyes closed.

This old man is none other than Emperor Tianyao, who has ruled Southern Chu for nearly fifty years!

Pang Yidian followed the mulberry festival into the main hall, and came to a zhang in front of the Dan furnace, and the mulberry festival bowed down.

"Back to Your Majesty, Zhou Envoy Pang Yi Hall has arrived."

While~

With a pleasant whisper

Emperor Tianyao on the cloud bed slowly opened his eyes, and glanced at Pang Yidian lightly, there was no monstrous dragon power, nor any majestic momentum, just a pair of ordinary cloudy eyes of an old man, no different from the old man selling sugar gourds on the street.

But it was such an ordinary pair of old man's eyes, and it was so faintly swept that Pang Yidian was frightened and broke out in a cold sweat. I almost couldn't help but kneel down to show surrender.

The tiger is old and the wind is here, and the dragon is still rushing into the sky!

…………

Gritting his teeth, Pang Yidian shook his head, abandoned the timidity in his heart, straightened his waist, and gave Emperor Tianyao a messenger salute.

"Pang Yidian, the envoy of the Great Zhou, has seen His Majesty the Emperor of Chu."

"Huh."

A faint smile sounded, Emperor Tianyao looked at Pang Yidian with interest, and praised in his mouth: "Yes, it is worthy of being Pang Longhu's grandson, the general is brave, not weak is the father, I really regret that I promised the prince to let him send you back to the Western Zhou Dynasty, stay in my Dachu, and be a cadre in the future." ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your compliment."

Pang Yidian bowed, neither humble nor arrogant.

Emperor Tianyao stretched out his hand to summon an attendant, asked him to bring a round stool to Pang Yidian, and gave Pang Yidian to sit and answer, after Pang Yidian thanked him, he stood up and sat down, and then asked Emperor Tianyao straight to the point.

"Your Majesty, I am on the orders of the Empress Dowager and the Emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty to send an envoy to your country, and I want to discuss the great plans of the two countries and help each other.

But I didn't want to come to Tianjing, not to mention that I was repeatedly criticized, and there were murderers who led the crowd to attack and kill me, etc., and the deputy envoy Mao Gong was martyred because of this, the sky is merciful, and I am also full of remorse.

Now, I hope that Your Majesty will take care of the friendship between the two countries, severely punish the murderers, avenge Mao Gong, and heal the rift between the two countries. ”

Emperor Tianyao's brows moved, and the smile on his face gradually disappeared, turning solemn.

"I already know about Deputy Envoy Mao, don't worry, it is related to the diplomatic relations between the two countries, and I will definitely give you an explanation."

After saying that, Emperor Tianyao turned his head to look at the mulberry festival next to him: "Big companion." ”

"The old slave is here."

"Spread the word to me, with the shadow prison and the criminal department, immediately take down the criminal who stormed the messenger's inn, and wait for the trial to clear the charges and punish them severely."

"Yes."

Sang Jie answered, nodded at Pang Yidian, turned around and walked out of the dormitory quickly.

……………

And this side, Pang Yidian was also a little stunned by Emperor Tianyao's handling so happily.

Since he specially sent Yu Huai to lead Nangong Wenxuan to the post house to make trouble, it proves that Pang Yidian has some understanding of the weight of Nangong Wenxuan, and knows how capable his cheap brother is, but he doesn't want to be here with Emperor Tianyao today, so he casually becomes a prisoner.

This greatly surprised Pang Yidian, but when you think about it, it is reasonable.

In fact, at first, Pang Yidian didn't want to make such a big fuss, he just wanted to borrow Nangong Wenxuan's hand to make a fuss about the post house, make some noise, and then alarm Princess Anya or the imperial grandson, and then meet with these two, so as to open a breakthrough for the envoy to Nanchu.

However, after thousands of calculations, Pang Yidian never expected that when Nangong Wenxuan attacked the post house as he planned, he killed a group of black-clothed people out of nowhere, and killed the deputy envoy Mao Xinliang.

Now things are out of control.

Who is Mao Xinliang, the deputy envoy of the Western Zhou Dynasty, the number two person in the team of Chu, although not as important as Pang Yidian, but also represents the face of the Western Zhou Dynasty, he was killed in Southern Chu, and the impact was not much worse than the murder of Pang Yidian.

As long as Nan Chu doesn't want to go to war with the Western Zhou Dynasty for this, then the Western Zhou must be given an explanation anyway, then Nangong Wenxuan, as the "culprit" on the bright side, will definitely not be able to escape the involvement.

It would be easy to understand if Emperor Yao ordered the disposal of Nangong Wenxuan today, after all, Emperor Tianyao is not the emperor's grandson who favors his nephew.

For this old emperor who has ruled Southern Chu for nearly fifty years, as long as he can maintain the rivers and mountains of Southern Chu, it is not good to sacrifice except for the only heir, the imperial grandson.

Not to mention the great-grandson of Nangong Wenxuan, or the granddaughter of Princess Anya, the old emperor is not ruthless when he encounters a critical moment............

……………

However, Emperor Tianyao's "impartial" handling made Pang Yidian unable to speak.

He didn't want something to happen to Nangong Wenxuan.

Don't get me wrong, Pang Yidian is not sorry for this cheap brother, but he is afraid that he will offend the imperial grandson and Princess Anya behind him, you must know that the reason why Pang Yidian was sent by the Empress Dowager Ning to envoy to Southern Chu is to let him go through the line of Princess Anya - the imperial grandson and persuade Southern Chu to send troops to the Northern Jin Dynasty.

If Nangong Wenxuan had an accident because of Pang Yidian, then it would be difficult for Princess Anya and the imperial grandson not to take advantage of this to anger Pang Yidian, which undoubtedly disrupted the purpose of Pang Yidian.

Therefore, hearing that Emperor Tianyao was going to severely punish Nangong Wenxuan, Pang Yidian instinctively wanted to stop it, but because of Mao Xinliang's death, he couldn't speak.

After all, the deputy envoy died tragically, and not only did he not avenge him, but pleaded for the "murderer", which was inappropriate and reasonable.

Alas, it's all my own fault, if I retreat in advance, Deputy Envoy Mao won't die, and I won't be so entangled............

Pang Yidian, who was in a dilemma, deeply regretted his previous arrogance.
