What should have been a joyous feast has now become like this. If their lives are not guaranteed, they will be sinners when they are likely to cause a war between the two countries.

The messengers were resentful and angry, but they had nowhere to speak. Just as they were waiting to be taken into prison by the guards with sad faces, they suddenly heard a small sound of footsteps outside the hall.

When everyone looked up, they saw a group of masked black-clothed people rushing into the hall with bright swords.

This group of assassins was not like the dancing girl just now, they were all going to the envoys of the Chu State.

Seeing this, the messengers were shocked, and their faces seemed to be more frightened than they were.

Naturally, the guards in the hall had already drawn their long swords and rushed forward, and the envoys followed closely behind.

However, instead of fighting the black-clad assassins, they gathered together and ran towards one of them, and then protected him.

Nalan Zhi stood on the high platform and saw clearly, and heard the messengers shouting "protect the prince".

In this way, Nalan Zhi suddenly realized that the messenger who was inconspicuously dressed and behaved ordinarily was actually the crown prince of Chu State.

In this way, Nalan Zhi couldn't help but squint secretly, the hand holding the cup exerted a slight force, and then quietly raised his eyes to look at the group of black-clothed assassins.

This wave of assassins was originally sent by Nalan Zhi to lure out the prince of Chu, but now that the goal has been achieved, he naturally casually perfunctory and pretended to fall into disadvantage.

"Retreat—" The lead assassin shouted, and the man in black stabbed quietly like a ghost, and then dispersed like smoke. As for why this solemn palace could not stop a few assassins, the reason was only known to the emperor who was smiling gentlely and elegantly.

The evening breeze was blowing, bringing a touch of coolness. The panic caused by the Assassin attack gradually subsided under the defeat of the Assassins, and most of them quietly gave a sigh of relief. Xu was that the atmosphere was too tense, or the movements of the envoys of the Chu State were too big, and some smart people heard the wind and began to be cautious.

After two temptations, the prince of Chu also turned from the dark to the light, and seeing that the expected effect was achieved, the smile in Nalan Zhi's eyes became more and more real.

"Your Majesty, my envoy to your country from the Chu State originally had a great respect, but I didn't want Your Excellency to have a huge palace and three thousand imperial forest troops. With such a tight guard, there were assassins mixed in, and there were two waves of them!

And now it is the time for His Majesty to feast us, and the contemptible people have to have a suspicion about it! An envoy from the state of Chu said loudly in a frustrated voice, sounding in a respectful tone, but with a thick sense of doubt and disdain.

Nalan Zhi's originally smiling eyes flashed, how could he not know what to say, it's just that the surface peace between the two countries still has to be maintained. After all, people don't talk about things so deadly, just normal anger, although the tone is not good.

With a wave of his big hand, the bright yellow golden black embroidered dragon robe was thrown behind him, and he slowly walked down, smiling like a spring breeze. Leisurely, fluttering, imperceptible, bent back. He apologized, and then, in his slightly magnetic voice, said slowly:

"I'm sorry for something important to happen, and I'll make amends for the fright you have been accidentally given. As for the ability to guard the palace, it doesn't seem to be within the scope of your Chu envoy's jurisdiction, does it? ”

The messenger should have received the order, and he accepted it when he saw it, and ignored Nalan Zhi's last question, and immediately laughed: "Hahahaha, Your Majesty is generous, I have offended a lot before, and I hope Your Majesty will forgive me!" He clenched his fists in apology.

Nalan stopped when the envoy clenched his fist and walked back to the right position, and the envoy's hypocrisy, he didn't feel at ease at all. At this moment, he glanced at a trusted minister, and everyone understood the meaning. Immediately afterward, he said meaningfully, "It's okay, but just now, I seem to have heard your envoys shouting who to protect?" The last end of the puzzle made the messenger feel uncomfortable, but he could not help but stand still, helpless.

An official at the table immediately stood up, walked to the center and saluted Nalan, and shouted: "Your Majesty, Wei Chen just clearly heard them shouting to protect the crown prince!" ”

This was exactly the answer that Nalan Zhi was looking forward to, he glanced at the official very gently, and replied lightly: "Aiqing, this matter is very important, you can't talk nonsense." Since the prince of Chu has come here, how can he sneak around like a mouse! He chuckled lightly and looked at the envoys of the Chu State who were pale for a moment. One of them, with extraordinary bearing, sat among the messengers, without panic after being assassinated.

This person is the prince of Chu State-Yan Hua. The faces of the envoys became more and more ugly one by one, and they must have been annoyed by the upright minister. The eyes of all the envoys were aimed at Yan Hua, who was indistinguishable, for fear that the prince would be uncertain and angry with them.

Everyone's eyes flickered, and they saw a man with a lofty spirit slowly walking out of the group of messengers, he was very leisurely, and his every move carried a royal demeanor. He looked at Nalan Zhi, and before he could say anything, he was interrupted by a senior official. "Bold! Seeing that His Majesty didn't kneel and salute! Could it be that you Chu people don't take the most honorable majesty of our great country in your eyes! "It's the guy who pointed out the prince just now.

As soon as the words fell, Yan Hua moved, he bowed slightly, and his thin lips opened slightly: "Your Majesty, I am the prince of Chu State, because I don't like the prosperity of the front and back, and I am especially greedy for the stability that no one cares about, so I didn't inform Your Majesty in advance." It's our fault. I, the prince of Chu, apologize like you. ”

The crown prince has also apologized for his identity, and it is not Nalan Zhi's style to hold on tightly, and now, it is time to give the other party a perfect step to show his tolerance and generosity. As for the after......

"The prince is so noble, how can he condescend to the audience. It's really my carelessness, but the reason why you don't want to reveal your identity is too unreal, isn't it, you're worried that someone in my country will be unfavorable to you? Before asking this question, Nalan Zhi completely forgot about the previous two assassinations.

Yan Hua was also very helpless, he was a little annoyed, bowed deeply, and didn't say a word. Then he stood on the stage calmly, and he didn't seem to have a trace of embarrassment.

So, after Nalan Zhi pretended to be generous and hypocritical with Yan Hua, Yan Hua sat in the position closest to the emperor, the top on the left, and the minister who made eye contact with the emperor on the right.

From Nalan Zhi's point of view, Yan Hua completely ignored his ridicule. It seems that he is still a forbearant master, it doesn't matter, this matter has just begun.
