Chapter 5 Weak countries have no diplomacy
"Who?"
Ye Xiong sat up with sleepy eyes.
"Your Highness..... Today is your first day of employment,....." the maid Mo Yu said with some fear, for fear of upsetting this new master.
"Onboarding?"
Ye Xiong slapped his forehead fiercely.
"Damn! I almost forgot! ”
As he spoke, Ye Xiong got up and began to clean up, and Mo Yu outside the door waited anxiously with Ye Xiong's official uniform.
"Here we are."
A few minutes later.
Ye Xiong opened the door and looked at sixteen or seventeen-year-old Mo Yu outside the door, with a puzzled expression.
"Didn't I say that the courtyard doesn't need servants?"
"Back to Your Highness."
Mo Yu lowered his head and replied respectfully. "This is Your Majesty's arrangement..."
"Lin Xuan?"
Ye Xiong had a suddenly realized expression, "Okay." ”
"Your Highness, then I'll serve you to change your clothes first." Mo Yu looked at Ye Xiong cautiously.
"No, you don't."
Ye Xiong took the official uniform, turned around and closed the door.
Soon.
Ye Xiong, who was wearing an official uniform, walked out in a chic manner.
Originally, Ye Xiong's appearance was very handsome, but after wearing the official uniform, he had a noble temperament, and he was stunned by Mo Yu.
"What's your name?" Ye Xiong knew that it was not easy for the maids here, so he asked.
Mo Yu, who was stunned, suddenly came back to his senses. "Back to Your Highness, my name is Mo Yu."
"Mo Yu..."Ye Xiong nodded. Since she arranged it, you can stay, and when I didn't call you, you did your own thing, understand? ”
"Understood." Mo Yu nodded excitedly.
Leave the courtyard.
Ye Xiong came to the office of the Ministry of Rites without hurrying.
At this time, the bigwigs of the Ministry of Rites had already gone to the Shenwu Hall for a meeting, and it was Zhao Gao, the principal, who greeted Ye Xiong.
"Your Highness."
Senior official Zhao worships Liupin and is Ye Xiong's top boss.
"You've worked hard, come, sit inside." Zhao Gao is a smart person, although Ye Xiong is a son-in-law, but now it is the empress's world, and it is necessary to have a good relationship.
"You are?"
As soon as Ye Xiong stepped into the door, he regretted it a little.
The huge office, plus myself, is only five or six people...
"My name is Zhao Gao, and I am the head of the Ministry of Rites, and I will be responsible for the distribution of His Highness's work in the future."
Zhao Gao's tone was quite polite.
"Master Zhao is fine."
Ye Xiong felt that Zhao Gao in front of him was okay. "What do I need to do?"
"Work?"
When Zhao Gao heard this, his head shook like a rattle. "Your Highness, just leave those tedious official affairs to us, and you can just take charge of it."
"Director Zhao, don't treat me differently."
Ye Xiong walked inside.
"I'm not here for an idle meal."
"Your Highness, you really don't have to..."
Zhao Gao had an anxious expression on his face, it was rumored that Ye Xiong's health was not very good, and if he fell ill here, it would be a big trouble.
"Where is my location?"
Ye Xiong looked at Zhao Gao with a smile.
"Please follow me." Zhao Gao directly took Ye Xiong to the room prepared in advance.
When the two of them walked down the hallway.
Ye Xiong inadvertently saw two foreign affairs personnel from other countries.
"They are?"
"Neighboring." Zhao Gao's tone was a little indignant.
"It is said that it is a neighboring country, and it is not separated from our apocalypse."
"What are they doing here?"
Ye Xiong listened to Zhao Gao's words and stopped directly.
"I don't know, I guess it's a border issue again...."Zhao Gao saw that Ye Xiong had stopped, and hurriedly blocked Ye Xiong's sight.
The self-esteem of the Apocalypse people is still quite strong.
"Let's go check it out."
Ye Xiong bypassed Zhao Gao and went to the main hall of reception.
"Your Highness, or don't..."
Before Zhao Gao finished speaking, he was already thrown away by Ye Xiong for a distance.
"Is this a seriously ill person?"
Zhao Gao almost didn't keep up with Ye Xiong's footsteps.
Reception Basilica.
The waiter Li Yan was sitting in a precarious position, and sitting opposite was the envoy of the Canglang Country and the Baichuan Country.
The two cities of Canglang and Baichuan used to be the economic core of the Apocalypse, and by virtue of their seaside location, trade flourished.
"What are you doing this time?"
Li Yan's voice was obviously a little lacking in qi.
"Li Shilang, this time the matter is very simple, we Baichuan want to open up another trade route, so I hope that the Apocalypse can bring the land to the southwest..."
Hearing this, Li Yan directly interrupted his words.
"Liu Yun, don't take an inch."
"Li Shilang, why bother to be angry."
It was Wang Yong, the messenger of the waves, who spoke. "We're just talking about the results, not discussing with you."
Wang Yong's words were more simple and direct, and the angry and elderly Li Yan was flushed.
"You... You guys..."
"What are we?" Liu Yun shook his head. "Originally, there was no problem with the tripartite cooperation in this matter, but I heard that your only Shenwu general, Niu Ben, died."
"How do you know?"
Li Yan's face fused.
"Hahaha." Wang Yong had a smug expression. "Good things don't go out, bad things spread thousands of miles, do you still need to ask?"
Li Yan was silent.
In the past, I could rely on Niu Ben to deter these small countries, but now...
"That's right."
Wang Yong added. "For the sake of this construction, we specially invited two great monks to sit in town, I hope you don't mind."
Hear here.
Li Yan was even more desperate.
Zhao Gao, who was outside the hall, saw that the two of them were so arrogant, and unconsciously clenched his fists.
"Can't stand it?"
Ye Xiong said slowly.
"Yes, Your Highness." Zhao Gao nodded, as a person of the Apocalypse, territory is as important as life.
"Then go up and slap him."
Ye Xiong hugged his arms and said calmly.
"Don't dare." Zhao Gao smiled bitterly.
"Why don't you dare?" Ye Xiong said playfully.
Why don't you dare? Say it easily! Zhao Gao's grievances and the lack of diplomacy in a weak country have been well known since ancient times.
"I said, go up and fan him, if anything happens, I'll be responsible."
Ye Xiong gave Zhao Gao another chance.
Zhao Gao, who was originally angry, didn't know if he was stimulated by Ye Xiong's bland words, so he directly entered the hall and did the proudest thing in his life in the past thirty years.
Smack.
The air was suddenly quiet.
Wang Yong covered his face and looked at Zhao Gao, who had a fierce look in his eyes, and was speechless with fright.
"Bastard."
Liu Yun stood up.
"Sit down."
Zhao Gao's momentum suddenly became stronger.
"You are a little master, who gave you the courage?" Liu Yun was stunned on his lips, but he was already cowardly in his heart.
With a snap, Zhao Gao slapped Liu Yun hard.
"I am a man of the apocalypse, and the apocalypse gave me courage."
At this time, Zhao Gao felt that his palms were slightly numb, but his heart was refreshing.
"Good, good!"
Liu Yun covered his face and motioned for Wang Yong to leave.
"I hope you can see the sun tomorrow."
After speaking.
Liu Yun left the hall with Wang Yong.
Leaving Li Yan and Zhao Gao to look at each other silently.
"Lao Zhao." Li Yan's voice trembled slightly.
"Your Excellency, you say."
"Well done! The old man has wanted to smoke him for a long time! The more Li Yan spoke, the more excited he became, "Don't worry, I'll take care of this matter for you." ”
"Thank you, sir."
Zhao Gao immediately knelt on the ground.
Originally, he thought that his black gauze hat would not be able to be kept, but it seemed that there was still hope?
"However, Lao Zhao, you still have to be careful these days."
Li Yan's words changed. "If Wang Yong and Liu Yun didn't rely on them, they would never dare to be so arrogant, I heard just now that they invited a great monk, you better go back and hide."
When Zhao Gao heard this, he chuckled in his heart.
Although the boss will not pursue it, if he is targeted by a figure like the Great Monk, it will be tantamount to declaring death in advance!
"It's just a great monk, what are you afraid of?"
Ye Xiong stood at the door and said lightly.
"Who are you?" Li Yan had never seen Ye Xiong, so he asked.
"Ye Xiong."
"It turned out to be His Highness."
Li Yan got up and was about to kneel.
"No courtesy."
Ye Xiong patted the official uniform on his body with his hand. "The Great Monk is bluffing to put it bluntly, isn't Niu Ben an example?"
Li Yan and Zhao Gao looked at each other, although they were unconvinced, but they didn't dare to refute on the surface.
"Don't believe me, if my guess is correct, their helper should be in the city, maybe he will choke to death from drinking water and eating at night.... Or go to the latrine and fall into the pit. ”
Li Yan had heard Shangshu Wang Zhong talk about Ye Xiong.
At that time, he only listened to gossip, this Ye Xiong couldn't practice, he was still sick, and now Li Yan wanted to add one, and his brain was probably also problematic.
"Your Highness, what you said is true?"
Zhao Gao actually believed it.
"Seriously." Ye Xiong patted Zhao Gao on the shoulder. "You should eat and drink steadily."
"Holo."
Zhao Gao also thought simply, after all, this is the apocalypse, could it be that they really dare to assassinate officials?
