Chapter 175: Wave after Wave

"Someone in the envoy of the imperial court is dead...... King Huainan was stunned for a moment, and after a while, he immediately understood, and said to the chief attendant kneeling in front of him: "Lei Shu should be accompanying the envoy now, what is he doing when the deputy envoy dies?" ”

Lei was the Xiangguo of the King of Huainan, and after hearing Liu Xi mention him, the chief of the chamberlain said: "When the deputy envoy died violently, the Xiangguo Lord also asked the doctor in the palace to treat him. After returning to heaven and being powerless, he is now appeasing Lord Liu Jing. Because the house has been heavily guarded by heavy soldiers, Lord Xiangguo can't come and go freely, so he asked his subordinates to perform on his behalf. Allocate government funds for the deputy envoy to pay a heavy pension......"

"Accurate!" After the king of Huainan snorted, he continued: "You go and pass on the words of this king, and take two hundred gold from the palace. One hundred gold was used as the bereavement of the deputy envoy, and the other one hundred gold was used as the gold for suppression, and I asked Lord Liu Jing to distribute it to the entourage. In addition......"

Without waiting for King Huainan to finish speaking, he suddenly thought of something while smiling at his return. said to Xiao Liu Xi: "It's not that simple, I'm afraid something will happen to the envoy of Wu State." When these words came out, King Huainan also reacted, and shouted at the chief attendant: "Quick, divide the guards here into two teams and go to guard the two missions respectively." ”

After being stunned for a moment, the chief chamberlain said, "Your Highness, it is better to divide into three teams, and leave one team to guard Your Highness......"

"None of them are left! Just go! Huainan Wang Xiao Liu An shouted, so frightened that the chief attendant shrank his neck. Not daring to delay at the moment, he turned around and ran towards the door to deliver the king's order. But a moment later, the chief chamberlain came in with another chamberlain, and the two of them were pale, and when they came in, they both knelt in front of the king of Huainan.

The head of the interior said to King Huainan with some horror: "Your Highness, Your Majesty hasn't gone out yet, someone has already told you, Wu ...... Six of the envoys of the state of Wu died suddenly, and the chief and deputy envoys were all among the six who died violently......"

After knowing that the envoys of Wu State also had an accident, King Huainan's hanging heart was a little calmer. His eyes were fixed on the two chamberlains who were still kneeling on the ground and did not dare to raise their heads, and after a pause, he shifted his gaze to the body of the returnee, and said: "Mr. Gui, it seems that you have really been right, the evil thing has happened, how should we deal with it?" ”

"Do you really need to ask my old man? Didn't Your Highness think about it a long time ago? After smiling, he glanced at the silent Wu Mian and Xiao Ren San, who was wearing a suit of armor and commanding thousands of troops and horses in the air, and he continued to say to King Huainan: "But the old man, I want to remind Your Highness that a moment ago, it could be said that it was the incident provoked by the Wu Kingdom. Now it's completely different, it's not handled well, and before the left and right fight, the disaster will be brought to Huainan. ”

"Disciple understands what Mr. means" King Huainan was silent for a moment, and then bowed to the non-return. Then he said to the chief attendant who was still kneeling on the ground: "Pass on my king's order, and the four gates of Shouchun City will be closed from now on." Please ask a cadre of monks from the hotel post under the Zhaoxian Pavilion to assist in the deployment of the four gates. In addition, the city began to strictly inspect the households. If there are outsiders, etc., they will be detained......"

Speaking of this, King Huainan hesitated for a moment, and after seeing that Wu Mian and Gui Bugui were also looking at him, he swallowed back the words that were about to be spoken. Then he said: "Without a follow-up royal order, no one is allowed to embarrass them." ”

After seeing that Wu Mian and Gui Wu had nothing to say, King Huainan said the key part later: "Let's just say that after I learned about the accident of the envoy, I was shocked and aggravated my condition, and I couldn't go to comfort the two missions for the time being." Please come to me with Lord Lei and Mao Erren, and tell me in detail what happened. If the two adults were not at the scene at the time of the incident. So he brought a man who was present at the time of the incident, and the king asked for his own inquiry. Do not spread false information to the king. ”

After the chief chamberlain received the king's order, he immediately went out and divided the troops with the little chamberlain beside him. After almost a meal, the chief chamberlain entered the inner hall with two middle-aged men and a young man dressed as an attendant. After saluting the king of Huainan, Xiao Liu An personally introduced these two important ministers of Huainan to Wu Mian and Gui Bugui. The older one is the imperial historian Mao Zhou, and the younger one is Xiangguo Lei Fu. However, when Wu Mian and the three of them were introduced to them, the two important ministers of Huainan were quite unimpressed. At that time, it was the time when the Confucian scholars of Confucius and the monks of Huang Lao's art were fighting against each other, and most of the Confucian scholars would not give a good face when they saw the monks. It's just to give the King of Huainan face, and he didn't have a seizure on the spot.

Seeing that the scene was a little embarrassing, Xiao Liu An, the king of Huainan, asked the two close ministers what happened to the two missions just now, which was regarded as resolving this embarrassment.

Xiang Guolei was experienced from beginning to end by the violent death of the court envoys, and at that moment he told what happened from the point of view of the parties. At that time, Lei was drinking with the imperial court delegation, and according to the rules, this banquet had to be accompanied by the king of Huainan himself, but the conflict with the delegation of Wu just now happened to be the reason why it was inconvenient for the king of Huainan to accompany him.

During the banquet, the two special envoys were lobbying Lei Fu. Ask him to persuade the king of Huainan not to wade into the troubled waters of Wu and several other countries, this time Liu Jing is still a distant relative of the Liu family, but this relative is too far away, and even a marquis is not mixed up. Originally, he wanted to use his status as an imperial prince to persuade Liu Xi, but now the king of Huainan does not appear at all. He could only retreat and ask Lei to be conveyed on his behalf, and the Lord Xiangguo of Huainan has been pretending to be confused, and it is the same meaning from beginning to end, I say what I should say, but if our King Huainan disposes of it, it will not be about me to be a Xiangguo.

After seeing Xiangguo relieved, Liu Jing's deputy envoy took out a gift to Lei Fu. He sent a piece of flawless jade to Lei Fu's hand, and said, "I originally thought that after completing the emperor's order, I would go to visit my lord." However, since I met Lord Xiangguo in this Huainan Palace, I simply sent this little gadget to the adult. When he was about to leave Beijing, His Majesty also talked about Lord Xiangguo, and His Majesty had also heard of you, saying that you had been wronged in a small Huainan country, and your talent had to be stretched. With such a talent as Lord Xiang, it is not an exaggeration to serve as the minister of the DPRK. Plus the title of Marquis of Wanhu......"

After saying this, the face of the deputy envoy, who was still smiling, suddenly became painful. Then a mouthful of blood spurted out, and at the same time that this blood spurted out, his body had already fallen to the ground. Then the deputy envoy's body began to shake violently, and a stream of yellow-white liquid mixed with this blood kept spurting out.

At the time, everyone thought that the deputy was in an emergency. During the banquet, the monks who came with the delegation were accompanied, and none of these monks saw that someone had harmed the deputy envoy by magic. At that moment, Lei was hurriedly asked to call the waiting chamberlain to the doctor of the palace, but before the doctor arrived, the deputy envoy had already returned to the heavens.

After seeing the death of the deputy envoy, Liu Jing changed his face immediately. He thought that the king of Huainan had formed an alliance with the Seven Kingdoms led by Wu State, but now, Liu Jing had a seizure. At that moment, he brought the envoy and everyone to make a fuss, asking Lei to go to King Huainan for an explanation.

Mao Zhou's things were similar to this, except when Wu Mian's envoy had an accident. He was going to the toilet, and then he brought back the retinue that had been guarding the scene at the time of the incident, and asked him to tell the king of Huainan about it.

The violent death of the envoys of Wu and the fact that Lei was seen are not found much. But they died a little more. In addition, a total of six people were killed, and they were also seen at the banquet, and they suddenly spurted blood from their mouths while eating and drinking. Soon after, he died of exhaustion, and now, with the deputy envoy of the imperial court, seven people have died in less than half a day. Originally, the seven bodies were going to be sent to the official office outside the palace for an autopsy, because the palace had been surrounded by a large army, and now they were sent to a side room in the palace.

Hearing that the corpse had been stored, he suddenly became interested in returning or not, and said to King Huainan: "Your Highness, if you don't mind, let someone send those few words of corpse here." If you don't know, what else can these dead people tell us......"
