Chapter Ninety-Four: The Crown Prince of Zhao
Just when Chu Huai and the current Empress of the Great Zhou were hiding in the stove room and secretly cooking, the news of the death and rebellion of the Six Feather Realms of the Four Kingdoms quickly spread under the deliberate propaganda of the Great Zhou.
The southeast boundary of the entire Tianlong hinterland suddenly exploded as if a pot had exploded.
The restoration of the Great Zhou was not favored by everyone, not to mention that the emperor was still a young woman, so when the four countries joined forces to exert pressure, everyone thought that the Great Zhou would be destroyed again.
But I didn't expect that someone would stop Shikoku alone.
Everyone immediately became interested in it and inquired about the person who made it.
Soon, the letter investigating Chu Huai was sent to the conference table of the major forces.
When they knew that the person who helped the Great Zhou to restore the country was the leader of the Heavenly Dragon Martial Arts at the beginning, they were all shocked!
……
Since the last shot, Chu Huai has stayed in the palace of Tai'an City in the Great Zhou Dynasty for the time being.
Since he has received the favor of the old man Taiping, he should follow the agreement, and after the Great Zhou is stable, it is not too late to set off for Zhongzhou.
"Brother Chu, come and try my freshly braised crucian carp."
In the stove room, Zhong Yao brought out a stack of roasted fish with bright red soup, and the aroma was immediately overflowing.
Chu Huai clipped his chopsticks, nodded suddenly, and gave a thumbs up.
"Give me a bite too."
At this time, a young man next to him ran over and said excitedly.
The three of them ate the rice together.
"Miss Wang, your skills are so good, do you want to stay in our imperial dining room and cook for Her Majesty the Empress."
The guy in the imperial dining room who had dinner with Chu Huai and Zhong Yao, named Xiao Li, said excitedly.
He only knew that Chu Huai and Zhong Yao were greedy guards and palace maids, and they came to ask him to borrow the kitchen to cook.
"What's so good about cooking for the empress, she eats alone, why do so many people cook for her?" Zhong Yao pouted and said.
"Perhaps, your empress is a big fat man." Chu Huai said with a smile.
Zhong Yao glared at Chu Huai with disgust.
"Shh
Xiao Li hurriedly made a silent movement, looked around to see that there was no one around, and then walked back again.
"Why are you two so bold that you are always teasing the empress and not afraid of losing your head?"
"Hey, Brother Chu, since you are a guard, what realm are you?" Xiao Li said.
"Let's practice the Qi Realm, what, do you want to cultivate?" Chu Huai said while eating happily.
"It's a pity that I don't have a good talent and can't cultivate, Xiaoyan's mother said that if I am a monk, it is best to refine the three grades of the body realm before I am willing to marry my daughter to me."
Xiao Li had a sad face.
Chu Huai and Zhong Yao looked at each other and smiled, and after that, Chu Huai took advantage of Xiao Li's inattention and poured some mild Xuan-rank mid-grade spiritual liquid into his bowl.
Although it was not possible to completely improve Xiao Li's talent, it was more than enough to raise it to the third rank of the Body Refining Realm.
Crunch!
At this time, the door of the imperial dining room was suddenly pushed open, and an old man walked in, it was Zhang Yunqing.
"Zhang, Master Zhang?!"
When Xiao Li saw the comer, he immediately exclaimed.
He had the privilege of seeing the prime minister of the Great Zhou from afar.
They just secretly use the imperial dining room to cook, do they need the prime minister to arrest people?
Zhong Yao touched her nose in embarrassment, since she was a child, Zhang Yunqing did not allow her to cook on the grounds that the royal family was far away from cooking.
Zhang Yunqing bowed slightly to Chu Huai, and then said to Zhong Yao with an ugly face: "There are envoys from other countries here, let's go." ”
Zhong Yao put down the dishes and chopsticks stupidly and walked out.
Xiao Li suddenly stiffened with fright.
When the other party was far away, he came back to his senses.
"Miss Wang was arrested, are you okay?" Xiao Li looked at Chu Huai, who was still feasting on the side.
He thought that Zhang Yunqing said that the envoys of other countries came, and it was Zhong Yao, who was a palace maid, who was lazy and didn't do anything, that he would be arrested.
He really didn't understand, Chu Huai, a guard, why was he so calm after seeing the prime minister capture his companions?
"Why don't we go check it out?"
Chu Huai finished eating, put down the bowl, and said with a smile.
Xiao Li was even more stunned, could this guard dare to confront Cheng?
After that, Chu Huai put down the bowl and walked out. Xiao Li gritted his teeth, although he was afraid, he thought he was a righteous person, so he followed.
Xiao Li followed Chu Huai to the side door of the main hall of the palace and sneaked in.
Looking at the splendid hall, Xiao Li couldn't help but be a little stunned.
He was just a little cook, and he had never seen such a luxurious building.
"See His Majesty the Emperor of the Great Zhou, under the order of His Majesty the Emperor of Zhao, I sent a letter of alliance ceremony, hoping that our two countries will forever form an alliance and defend against foreign enemies, and I hope that His Majesty the Emperor of the Great Zhou will allow it!"
Under the main hall, there stood a group of people carrying treasure chests, led by men who knelt down and handed over the post.
Zhang Yunqing stepped forward, took the note, and presented it to Zhong Yao, who was sitting on the dragon chair.
Xiao Li, who was following Chu Huai and hiding on the side, suddenly turned pale with fright, he didn't expect that this was the main hall of the Shang Dynasty!
Xiao Li looked at the dragon chair tremblingly, and suddenly felt like a lightning strike.
Isn't this Miss Wang, who is cooking in the imperial dining room these days, why did she sit on the dragon chair?
Could it be that she is the empress, and she actually rubbed the current Empress of the Great Zhou for a few days?
Xiao Li immediately felt cold, and hurriedly recalled whether he had offended the empress in the past few days.
"Brother Chu, that's the empress, Miss Wang turned out to be the empress!"
Xiao Li hurriedly said to Chu Huai in a trembling voice.
"yes, I saw it." Chu Huai said.
On the dragon chair, Zhong Yao read the recital and nodded.
"It is a blessing that Zhao is willing to establish diplomatic relations with our country, and I also have this wish in Da Zhou, Prime Minister Zhang Cheng will ask all the envoys to stay, and we will choose a day to make a blood alliance."
When the Four Kingdoms besieged the Great Zhou, all forces had a wait-and-see attitude, and the same was true for the Zhao State.
But Zhao Guo and the Great Zhou before the fall were friends, and even before Zhong Yao asked for help, Zhao Guo did not respond, which made Zhong Yao feel a little chilled.
Now this Zhao State saw that since Chu Huai subdued the masters of the Four Kingdoms, he sent envoys to establish diplomatic relations with the Great Zhou.
Although Zhong Yao was unhappy, for the sake of Da Zhou, who had just returned to the country, he could only reluctantly agree.
At this moment, a young man walked in outside, wearing a luxurious robe, with a noble face on his face, and behind him there were two old men, whose breath was amazing.
The man clenched his fists and bent down towards Zhong Yao.
"Your Majesty, Xiao Sheng is the crown prince of Zhao State, since our two countries have formed an alliance, Xiao Sheng has the courage to admire His Majesty for a long time, and I have come to send a letter of appointment!" The man said.
"Bold!"
Hearing this, Zhang Yunqing snorted violently.
Zhong Yao's face was also gloomy.
This meeting will have to issue a letter of appointment to the dignified Empress of the Great Zhou, which is obviously a face-to-face teasing.
"Your Majesty, the Great Zhou Dynasty has made enemies with many powerful countries, and now the only one who dares to make friends with you is our Zhao State, if our two countries are not aligned, your country will always be alone."
