In front of the gate of Mengliang Fortress, Wang Junqing was being interrogated by the soldiers defending the city. After answering countless questions and passwords, his identity was finally confirmed, but they were not allowed to enter the city for the time being. There are three envoys of the demon clan who want to enter the fortress with them, this has never been encountered, the regimental commander who is in charge of guarding the city gate does not dare to let them in without authorization, and has already sent a signal soldier to inform the military chief of Meng Liang Fortress, everything has to wait for him to come before making a decision.

Niu Ziru, who got the news, did not dare to slack off in the slightest, and immediately led his guards to the east gate of Mengliang Fortress. Wang Junqing's safe return made his heart that had been hanging finally fall, as long as the eldest prince is intact, everything else is easy to say.

Opening the gate of the fortress, Niu Ziru led the guards out of the fortress. First, let the human warriors who came back with Wang Junqing go into the city to return to the original establishment to register and rest, and then he came to Wang Junqing's front and briefly asked him about some of the circumstances of this investigation and how he met these demon envoys.

After listening to Wang Junqing's narration, Niu Ziru came to the carriage where the demon princess was riding, and said to the carriage: "I don't know which princess is going to our country, please get off the train for a while." ”

A noble and elegant female voice in the carriage rang out: "What kind of place is this? Who are you? Can you represent the Dragon Empire and hold talks with our Demon God Empire?"

"This is the Mengliang Fortress of the Dragon Empire, I am the supreme commander here, if you are still so sneaky and afraid to look at people, I don't think there is any need for talks between our two countries. Niu Ziru said unhappily.

"This general is really unceremonious!" There was not a trace of unhappiness in the elegant voice of the demon princess, "Anyway, I am also the daughter of His Majesty the Demon Emperor, do you want me to show my head in front of the public, this is the hospitality of your human beings? ”

"This ...... But how can you prove that you are the princess of the demon race, and not a pretend, and how can you make us believe in the sincerity of your country?" Niu Ziru was speechless by the demon princess's words, and could only ask rhetorically.

"I naturally have a way to prove my identity, but as for the sincerity you say, it depends on what kind of thinking your country has. The demon princess said, "I came here with sincerity, and I will naturally do my best to prove myself." ”

Speaking of which, Niu Ziru didn't want to say anything more, and bowed slightly to the carriage that the demon princess was riding in: "Please move the princess to rest in the pavilion of Mengliang Fortress, and I will set up a banquet to wash the dust for the princess in the evening." ”

arranged for someone to send away the demon princess, and Niu Ziru immediately ordered a regiment of soldiers to surround the pavilion, in the name of protecting the personal safety of the demon envoy, but its real purpose is also self-evident.

Seeing that there was nothing wrong with him, Wang Junqing was about to return to his station after confessing to Niu Ziru. I didn't think that Niu Ziru stopped him first: "Wang Gongzi, you brought back these envoys of the demon clan, presumably you are also familiar with them." If you don't bother the two masters, you will be responsible for receiving them, and the liaison between them will be left to you. ”

Wang Junqing was stunned and said: "Military commander, I am only a platoon commander, and my rank is not high. And as a combatant, it's really not my forte to be sent to this kind of ushering thing, so you better be smart, don't be embarrassed for me. ”

"Hey, prince Wang, you can't say that. Niu Ziru smiled and patted Wang Junqing on the shoulder, "Your Bokan royal family is the number one family in our empire, and they are well versed in aristocratic etiquette, and their children are even more nobles among nobles. Receiving a high-level emissary like a demon princess is exactly what you are best at. Doing a good job of reception is no easier than fighting on the battlefield, and even more soldiers can survive because of it. Don't you want to accomplish this glorious mission for their sake? Don't say any more, and that's it. ”

Without waiting for Wang Junqing to react, Niu Ziru had already left with the guards. This matter is not something he can call the shots, so he must quickly report to Lord Qin Hui and let Lord Qin solve it himself. If the talks can achieve any results, maybe it will be of great help to my future career, right?

The more Niu Ziru thought about it, the more he felt that his arrangement was too wonderful, and letting Wang Junqing be in charge of receiving the demon princess could let him leave the battlefield and reduce the danger of death. If he does things well, he can also make the generalissimo's face shine. If things are done badly, it will not affect his career, and he may be able to please Lord Qin.

Fortunately, now Mengliang Fortress is also connected to a steam locomotive, and it can be reached within twenty-four hours at the fastest speed, and it only takes two days to go back and forth. As long as you survive these three days, you will be able to get rid of yourself, and I hope that this demon princess will not cause any trouble in these three days.

The evening banquet was held at Niu Ziru's mansion and belonged to a small private banquet. There are a large number of troops stationed in the Mengliang Fortress, and most of the nobles here are from the army. Niu Ziru didn't dare to let these people attend the banquet, otherwise he didn't know what would happen.

There were only six people at the dinner, the princess of the demon clan and her two retinues, Niu Ziru and his wife, and Wang Junqing. Wang Junqing was pulled over by Niu Ziru. Holding such a small private banquet in his mansion was also a decision he made after careful consideration. Now the news has not come back, and I don't know what His Majesty thinks, if you have a public banquet and everyone knows about it, it will be difficult to have room for change if something happens, and you will be very passive.

And this kind of private banquet is different, he can not only receive the envoys of the demon clan on behalf of the Dragon Empire, but also not provoke the fire. Let the lady come forward because the other party is a woman's surname, women can have a lot of common topics, and they will not always stay between the two countries, reducing the chance of friction.

At the dinner, the demon princess finally revealed her true colors. The long golden curls are loosely tied behind the head with an inky headband, the turquoise eyes are shining, the high nose bridge, the plump red lips, the snow-white complexion, and the plump posture are full of an alien style.

"My surname is Kennedy, you can call me Sophia. After making a demon court salute to Niu Ziru and his wife and Wang Junqing, the demon princess introduced herself, and then pointed to her two entourages, "This is General Hanks, the five-star general of the Demon God Empire, in charge of all the garrisons in Kyoto, and is my personal escort on this trip." This is the Secretary of State of the Demon God Empire, General Jackson, who is in charge of the specific matters of our envoy to your country for specific talks. ”

"Your Royal Highness Princess, please take a seat, the two generals, please take a seat. Niu Ziru hurriedly replied, "Niu Ziru, the military chief of the Mengliang Fortress of the Contemptible Dragon Empire, this is Clumsy Jing. I think you are all familiar with him, he will be in charge of all the affairs of your mission in our country, if there is any need, you can tell him well, and we will do our best to meet all your needs. ”

In a deliberately friendly atmosphere between each other, the dinner was very harmonious, and finally ended with the guests and hosts enjoying themselves. It's just that there is one person who is not happy to eat at the banquet, and that is Wang Junqing. He really doesn't understand these people, obviously they are cheating on each other, and none of what they say is sincere, but they can be as happy as they are......

There was no way to say such meaty words, so Wang Junqing simply buried his head in eating. After being born and dying in the demon territory for so long, it has been many days since I had eaten a hot meal. Niu Ziru has prepared so many good wines and dishes, and it would be a waste not to eat them. Besides, they rarely use chopsticks at all, just saying things that don't make sense. Such a table of delicacies is cheaper than Wang Junqing.

At the end of the dinner, someone sent the demon princess Sophia and others back to the pavilion. Before leaving, Niu Ziru did not forget to remind Wang Junqing and asked him to go to the pavilion early tomorrow morning and listen to Princess Fia's orders.

In the palace of the Dragon Empire, Emperor Liu Xiang urgently summoned several important ministers of the empire to discuss the matter of the demon clan sending envoys to the Dragon Empire.

Prime Minister Qin Hui first read out the official document sent by Niu Ziru Xingye in public, and then stepped aside, waiting for Liu Xiang to announce his will.

"Do you have anything to say about this matter?" Glancing at the ministers who were discussing below, Liu Xiang asked majestically.

"Your Majesty, we have always been at odds with the demons, and this time the other party came to visit rashly, we don't know their purpose, so it's better to think carefully. Generalissimo Wang Hucheng played first.

"What Wang Qingjia said makes sense. Liu Xiang nodded, "There must be a reason for the sudden visit of the demon clan this time, and we should indeed be cautious before we figure it out." ”

"But we should still take them to ** and talk to them first, no matter what, there is hope for talks. Now that the beast clan is powerful, I'm afraid the demon clan can't bear it, so they are in a hurry to come to us. Zhongshu ordered Cui Hao to also go out of class.

"Cui Gong's words are different, the demon clan and the beast clan have been in frequent contact before. It's just that some time ago, it was said that the beast clan first captured my Tashan fortress, and then leveled the demon clan Lasgar Province. The demons didn't get any benefit from the orcs, and now they have nothing to do before they think of looking for us. If we are in such a hurry to meet them, we will be in a disadvantageous position. The crown prince and the prince Zhang Pinyuan immediately raised an objection.

As soon as Zhang Pinyuan's words fell, the ministers in the hall began to discuss again.

The officials of Prime Minister Qin Hui and his family supported the immediate reception of the demon envoys, while the officials led by the generalissimo Wang Hucheng and the crown prince Zhang Pinyuan advocated that they should be left to dry for a period of time. The two factions have their own opinions, and neither can convince the other. For a while, the hall was full of people, arguing with each other.

"Alright, don't make any more noise. Liu Xiang said impatiently, "Zhang Pinyuan listened to the order, and ordered you to accompany the crown prince Liu Xin to leave for Mengliang Fortress immediately, greet the demon envoy, and accompany him to the capital." Alright, let's all go down. (To be continued.) )
