After soaking for an hour, Qi Hanxuan slowly walked out of the barrel, picked up the towel on the side, dried himself, opened the sandalwood cabinet next to him, took out a new set of purple embroidered dragon robes, dressed them neatly, and combed his hair in the mirror again, and then stepped out.

As soon as I went out, I saw that Zhou Fu was already waiting, with a bowl of soup in his hand, and when he saw him come out, he hurriedly stepped forward: "Your Majesty, this is the ginger soup that has just been boiled in the imperial dining room, which is used to ward off the cold, so as not to catch a cold, drink some while it is hot." ”

Qi Hanxuan glanced at the decoction, took it, touched the temperature was not too hot, and drank it directly, the bitter taste suddenly filled his mouth, he frowned slightly, and handed the bowl to Zhou Fu.

"Go back to the study!"

Qi Hanxuan gave him an order, turned around and strode out, there are still many unapproved excerpts today, and state affairs must not be delayed.

Zhou Fu heard this, hurriedly answered, gave the bowl to the little eunuch who was waiting on the side, and gave orders for a while, and then trotted to follow, and the group walked towards the imperial study.

As soon as he entered the imperial study, Qi Hanxuan's ears moved, and there was a slight knock of his fingers in the inner room, and his heart suddenly became clear, and he waved his hand to let Zhou Fu and them retreat.

Qi Hanxuan sat directly at the table, picked up the fold in his hand, and looked at it.

"Come out."

He raised his head and said lightly to the inner room, and as soon as the words fell, he saw a dark one dressed in black, walking out of it and kneeling down on one knee, "Dark has seen the master!" ”

"No courtesy."

"How's it going?"

Qi Hanxuan put down his fold and looked at him with a serious face, the dark one was sent by him to investigate the incident, and now that he is back, it must be that the matter has a result.

Hearing this, Dark One knelt down directly, "The master forgives his sins, Dark One is incompetent, the people sent to the Snow Cold Country will not be able to enter the Zhuluo Gate at all, and the locals they bought have not been able to get in. ”

"Not only can't our people get in, but the people who bought them can't get in either, so there's no way to find out the secrets inside the Zhuluo Gate!"

After saying this, Dark Yi lowered his head in shame, as the leader of the secret guard beside the emperor, he couldn't even find out about it, and he was given martial law by the other party in advance, so he was unworthy of this position.

When Qi Hanxuan heard this, his eyes were cold, his fingers tapped lightly on the table, and he kept thinking about this matter in his heart.

Although the Snow Han Country is not particularly far from Fengling Country, it is not close, and if the news is transmitted back so quickly, it must be a spy in the capital, knowing that the operation failed, and taking measures in advance.

The master of the Zhuluo Gate received their information, so he imposed martial law on the door and raised his vigilance, so that their people could not get in and find out the news.

"Have you found any suspicious characters in Beijing?" Qi Hanxuan pondered for a while, and asked, the only breakthrough at present is to catch the spies hidden in Beijing, ask for their contact information, and then start.

Dark Yi hung his head: "It's still searching, after all, the range of the six lanes in the east, west, north and south of Beijing is too large, and if we don't alarm them, our people can only search slowly." ”

If they had learned the news in advance, they would definitely have found a more hidden place to hide, or even quit the capital first, which would have been even more difficult to find.

Qi Hanxuan rubbed his eyebrows: "Let's do this for the time being." ”

It can only be like this first, the enemy is in the dark and they are in the light, naturally it is not easy to do, but as long as they are still in the capital, he doesn't believe it, and he can't catch such a few people!

Suddenly, his eyes lit up, and he looked down at the dark one kneeling on the ground: "I suddenly thought that when the ancestor was in turmoil in the world, he laid down this country, and finally signed a treaty with the other three countries, and that treaty stated that there would be a four-nation gathering in the four countries every ten years, and the location of the gathering would be jointly discussed by the emperors of the four countries. ”

"If I'm not mistaken, this year will be the seventh party!"

The gathering of the four countries was proposed by the king of the Snow Han Kingdom at that time, and the world was in chaos, and the four countries stood out, so naturally a big war could not be avoided, but the Snow Han Country was already a crossbow with a strong bow at that time, not only the geographical environment but even the soldiers who fought were far inferior to the other three countries.

What's more, the Snow Cold Country is close to the Snow Mountain, all surrounded by sea water, and there are many fishermen, once the war starts, as long as they poison the water, the Snow Cold Country will naturally not work, which is also the main reason why they can tighten the door tightly when the world is in turmoil, and make allies with Fengling Country, Yuehua, and the Kingdom of the Three Kingdoms.

But the ancestor was not easy to talk to, and the Yuehua and the lord of the country at that time forced them to sign many overlord treaties, so they agreed, after all, the geographical environment of the Snow Cold Country was there, and it was useless for them.

Fengling country is rich in materials, not only surrounded by mountains, fertile soil, but also a prosperous scene around the capital, naturally it is excellent, it is to see the superiority of this area, the ancestors made this place for the country.

Thinking of this, Qi Hanxuan's eyes were dark, after so many years of comfort, could it be that they still remembered the treaty of the year, and they wanted to collect debts?

He couldn't help but let out a sneer, if it weren't for the monarch of the Snow Cold Country, who bowed his head in front of the ancestors back then, would there be the name of the Snow Cold Country today, then it would be another story!

As soon as he heard this, he remembered that when they were ten years old, when they were trained by the first emperor, they had heard of a four-nation gathering, and now, he was about to turn twenty, and the four-nation gathering was naturally coming.

"Your Majesty, I remember that the gathering of the Four Kingdoms was around October that year, and now it has just passed June, could it be that this year is still the same as in previous years?" Dark One asked.

Qi Hanxuan squinted his eyes, and there was a deep meaning in his words: "Then it depends on what the Snow Han Kingdom is going to do!" ”

He didn't believe that they would continue to live like this forever, since he made the first move, there would definitely be a next time, but next time, he wouldn't let them go easily at all!

Dark One bowed his head slightly: "Yes!" ”

"Jingzhong has strengthened the search, but don't make too much movement, just search quietly, and when they relax their vigilance, it is when they show their hands and feet." Qi Hanxuan's eyes were full of cold light, and cold words came out from his thin lips, full of grin.

As the king of a country, he will never allow it, there are hidden dangers in his country all the time, he is not afraid of corrupt officials, because he will not give them the opportunity to harm the country, he will not take small bribes to heart, in the face of temptation, there are very few who can resist, this he naturally understands.

So he won't kill them one by one, as long as they have a bottom line, for those who have no bottom line and are not greedy, he will slowly clean them up!

None of this is enough to be said about national affairs, because there will be such things in every country, and it is inevitable!
