Ye Zhaopei came over after listening to the report of his subordinates.

She heard that the emperor had sent an envoy to him, and when she saw that the king's face was not very good, she did hear a violent voice coming from inside.

But if she said that she was invited by someone, she was afraid that she would be involved in that person, so between Ye Zhaopei's conversations, she looked like she didn't know what the situation was, but was passing by.

She walked in front of Jiang Zhi, stood in front of the desk, stretched out her hand, and touched Jiang Zhi's cheek: "Your Excellency, why are you unhappy?" ”

"Nothing." Jiang Zhi sighed, grabbed her hand, put it in the palm of his hand and rubbed it very lightly.

Ye Zhaopei looked at the group of people kneeling below: "Okay, you all retreat." ”

She recognized the envoy at a glance, frowned slightly, and did not speak.

Guan Shui took the lead in getting up, and the other attendants also got up one after another, the envoy looked at the head and wanted to say something more, but Guan Shui grabbed him: "My lord, please go." ”

The envoy gritted his teeth unwillingly, and had to leave the study with him.

Ye Zhaopei didn't breathe a sigh of relief until all the people were gone, and asked Jiang Zhi softly: "Was it sent by the Emperor of Chaojing?" ”

Jiang Zhi said "um": "I was confused at the beginning, and I wanted to give you to the Son of Heaven as a gift in exchange for something for myself." ”

Hearing him admit it so bluntly, it made Ye Zhaopei a little surprised.

Jiang Zhi said: "So I was not happy to see the envoy coming to urge." ”

Ye Zhaopei couldn't help laughing. Jiang Zhi saw her smiling, and also raised the corners of his mouth, but he was still a little puzzled: "Zhao Pei, what are you laughing at?" ”

Ye Zhaopei smiled and said, "I laugh at you, how can you look like a child." ”

"Like a child?" Jiang Zhi looked at her, blinked slowly, and savored the description.

"Like, very like." Ye Zhaopei nodded.

Jiang Zhi took her palm and stood up: "Then the tired queen, how about having a meal with my child at noon today and taking a nap together?" ”

Ye Zhaopei obediently followed him: "Listen to you, who calls you a child." ”

Guan Shui kept sending the envoy out of the study and said to him, "My lord, please leave quickly." The king is not happy, if he stays here for a long time, it is not a good thing for adults. ”

The envoy had a cold face: "Today, the world is really declining, the people's hearts are not ancient, I am the envoy of the Son of Heaven, but there are people who dare to expel me!" This is the first time for me! ”

Guan Shui said with a smile: "My lord's words are serious, but now the East Country is the largest vassal state to protect the Son of Heaven. ”

The envoy's eyes widened as he looked at him: "Are you threatening me?" ”

He gritted his teeth: "Okay, you people in the East Country have already turned against the sky!" This Great Shang Dynasty is still the Son of Heaven, how strong is the East Corner Kingdom? But it's just to serve the Son of Heaven! Why, now that the East Country is powerful, can it ride to the head of the Son of Heaven? ”

"My lord misunderstood." The surface of the water does not change color.

"Misunderstanding? I don't think I'm mistaken about you! Your lord was furious at me and told me to get out of here, ostensibly not giving me face, but in fact, not giving face to the Son of Heaven! Hmph, when I return to Chaojing, I will enlighten the Son of Heaven, and I will have to destroy your East Corner Kingdom! The envoy shouted indignantly.

Hearing him say this, Guan Shui was finally willing to open his eyelids and look at him: "What did the adults say just now?" ”

Guan Shui has always been a gentle appearance with a slight smile, but at the moment, his eyes are full of coldness. The envoy couldn't help but be stunned, and a chill rose in his heart for no reason.

He took a step back: "You...... Don't mess around! I am an envoy of the Son of Heaven! ”

After a pause, he swallowed a mouthful of saliva and said, "You're just a squire!" No matter how powerful you are, you're just a minion! What, what else is there to do to me? ”

Guan Shui didn't speak, but a cold long sword was gently placed on his shoulder at this time.

Then a voice with a bit of banter and contempt sounded: "The envoys of the Son of Heaven are also human beings, and it is inevitable that there will be good and bad luck if you are a person in this world." If you die here, who knows if it will be the hand of the king's men, or the sword of an assassin from some other country? ”

"Lord Yun." Guan Shui nodded slightly to Yun Mang, who was holding the long sword in his hand.

"What did this kid say just now? Say you're just a minion? Yun Mang raised his eyebrows and looked at the envoy.

The envoy shrank his neck, but Yun Mang's sword was a little closer to him.

Guan Shui smiled: "It's nothing. ”

Yun Mang sneered: "I said, Guan Shui, I have long told you not to work so hard for the king, why bother?" Now that you're a squire, even this ass seller looks down on you. Back then, when you killed all sides and thousands of people were afraid, this kid didn't know where to pout his ass and flatter. ”

The envoy struggled to gain face for himself: "Who...... Who said I sold my ass? I'm a virgin! ”

Yun Mang laughed out loud: "Who said you were the kind of seller? Even if the Son of Heaven has the goodness of Longyang, he can't look down on your appearance. I said you sell ass, but it's just because I've heard that the Son of Heaven loves to kick people's asses when he's angry. What are you selling your ass? ”

The envoy's face was ugly, and he was afraid of the long sword between his necks, and he did not dare to refute.

Guan Shui waved his hand and dissuaded: "Lord Yun, there is no need to be like this. It's nothing more than a snob. ”

Seeing the wind makes the rudder, bullying the soft and fearing the hard.

"It's indeed a villain, and killing him is also dirty my sword." Yun Mang nodded approvingly, which can be regarded as giving Guan Shui a face. He put away his long sword and said to the envoy, "Now, give us a good apology." ”

"Apologize?" The envoy was stunned.

Yun Mang swept the long sword in his hand: "Yes, you just said that he was just a minion, didn't he hurt people?" ”

The envoy gritted his teeth, and when Yun Mang saw him like this, he couldn't help frowning, and glanced at him coldly: "What? Are you going to apologize? ”

After a pause, Yun Mang said again: "That's it." You don't have to get out of the palace. ”

The envoy was stunned for a moment, and Yun Mang smiled again: "Our room has recently invented some new punishments, and we are looking for some volunteers to try it." Would you like to give it a try? Those are all adapted from the life and death trials of the Fire Mountain, and they are even better. How about this adult come and contribute to EAST? ”

Hearing this, the envoy couldn't help but take a big step back, paused for a moment, and then knelt straight towards Guan Shui: "Lord Guan Shui, please calm your anger, don't take the villain's bold words to heart!" Please also ask Lord Guanshui to forgive your sins! ”

Yun Mang bent down and patted the envoy's shoulder very lightly: "It's very good, then we don't need you to contribute." Let's go back. ”

"Thank you, two adults!" The envoy kowtowed his head again, and then he got up and walked away in a hurry.

He also thought that he could get some benefits from coming to this East Corner Country, who knew that the attendants of this East Country from the king to the bottom were all crazy people!

Seeing that the envoy's footsteps were walking fast, and he even tripped and almost fell down halfway, Yun Mang had a bright smile on his face, and bent his elbow to push the official water beside him: "If you want to thank me, give me two jars of pepper wine." ”

Guan Shui glanced at him, didn't speak, turned around and left.

Yun Mang kept up with him: "What's the matter with you, don't you thank me?" If you encounter any difficulties next time, don't come to me, I will never help. ”

Guan Shui said lightly: "This is not a help for me." If the envoy goes back and tells the Son of Heaven what happened to him, we in the East will not be able to take advantage of it. ”

"So what does it matter? Now that the princes are strife, and the power of the Son of Heaven is empty, our Dongyu Kingdom is the most powerful country in the entire Great Shang Dynasty," Yun Mang said, "What's more, we still have Zhao Pei, with you." Zhao Pei alone can be worthy of an army, what general she doesn't dare to kill? ”

Guan Shui stopped in front of the door of the study, smiling, but did not speak.

Yun Mang said again: "But do you know? Our murderous Zhao Pei is a shy little appearance in front of the king. ”

Guan Shui glanced at him: "I remember that you can't beat the queen." ”

Yun Mang wondered: "Why do you say that?" This is the pain of my life, please don't expose my shortcomings, today Zhao Pei was called by me, if I hadn't called Zhao Pei, would the king be so angry so quickly? ”

Guan Shui smiled: "I mean, there is the queen standing behind you, you just said that the queen will blush in front of the king, and the queen has already heard it." ”

Yun Mang was stunned for a moment, and his body stiffened. He hurriedly turned around: "Zhao Pei, listen to me......"

But when he turned to look, there was no one behind him. Yun Mang suddenly realized that Guan Shui was joking with him.

He looked at Guan Shui and said bitterly: "Even you are like this now." ”

Guan Shui stood in front of the door of the study and smiled: "Okay, you should also go and get busy with you." ”

Seeing that Yun Mang was still staring at him, Guan Shui whispered again: "The dough has been changed, don't worry." ”

"I mean, it's so much more exquisite." Yun Mang whistled, turned away, turned his back to him and said "goodbye" and left.

Guan Shui didn't speak, but the corners of his mouth brought out a smile.

——————

Let's say that the envoy of the Son of Heaven from Chaojing held his breath in the palace of the eastern corner country, and went out of the palace in a carriage, but was stopped by someone halfway down the road.

The minister was so angry that he lifted the curtain of the carriage and said angrily: "I said that you people in the East Country are endless? I've knelt and kowtowed, what do you want? ”

There were three or two black-clothed men standing outside the carriage, and they couldn't help but be stunned when they heard his words, and they looked at each other for a while.

The envoy was about to complain a few more words, but he was grabbed by several pairs of big hands on his shoulders and arms, and even his mouth was covered. The envoy struggled hard, but could not break free, and was even knocked unconscious in the middle of the struggle.

The carriage was in an empty alley where no one was around, and a man in brocade clothes walked to the carriage, handed the coachman a bag of silver taels, and said with a smile: "You have to work, these are what you deserve." ”

The coachman accepted it with gratitude, thanked him, and was about to turn to leave, but suddenly stopped.

A short knife that pierced his entire abdomen with unmistakable accuracy. When he fell to the ground, the coachman's eyes widened in a dead eye.

The brocade-clothed man pinched a handkerchief, wiped the tip of his nose, and coldly ordered: "Throw people away, don't leave any traces." ”

The man in black commanded: "Yes! ”
