Chapter 177: The efficacy of the elixir, the envoy of Qingyun
Wei Qixian immediately stepped forward and brought the elixir to the old emperor.
The old emperor picked up the pill and looked at it carefully, his eyes were full of greed: "Good, good, really good, Master Mutian, you have worked hard." ”
As he spoke, the old emperor directly swallowed the pill in his hand, and in the next second, a warm stream spread throughout his body, his whole body was radiant, the poisonous gas in his body was suppressed in an instant, and his face recovered in an instant.
Seeing this scene, Zhao Qiyang's face did not change at all, but the others present all looked at the old emperor in shock.
Seeing this, Prime Minister Wang Tianchi secretly said in his heart that it was not good, he knew that what this emperor valued most was the elixir refined by Mu Chen, and now it seemed that the initiative was about to be gone.
At this moment, Mu Chen said on the side: "Your Majesty, with the martial arts of the minister, if he wanted to kill the prime minister, he would definitely not be able to stand here so intact today." ”
Wang Tianchi reprimanded angrily: "Look at my head, look at my hands, and then look at my feet, do I seem to be intact?" ”
Mu Chen snorted coldly: "Prime Minister, if the person who did the work last night was really me, I'm afraid you would already be in a different place, how could you stand here and talk to me?" ”
"You...... You bastard! ”
"Alright, shut up."
A neutral voice came, and everyone closed their mouths, looking at the old emperor on the dragon head throne with surprised faces.
At this moment, the old emperor was like a teenager younger, smiling and his eyes were shining and scanning everyone.
Prime Minister Wang Tianchi was also a little shocked when he saw this scene, he had heard before that the elixir refined by Mu Chen had a miraculous effect, which could bring a person like the old emperor back to life, he originally didn't believe it, but now it seems that he can't help but believe it.
The old emperor sitting on the throne of the dragon head got up and said: "Prime Minister, I don't think I need to say more about this matter, you should also know that the person who went to your house last night to make trouble was not Mu Tianshi, presumably someone pretended to be Mu Tianshi and blamed him." ”
Wang Tianchi stood aside, and he had nothing to say, but this matter was really as Mu Chen said, then someone wanted to provoke a fight between him and Mu Chen.
The old emperor continued: "Prime Minister, don't worry, I will investigate this matter to the end, and I will definitely find out the person behind the troublemaker. ”
Wang Tianchi had no choice but to say, "Thank you, Your Majesty." ”
And at this moment, outside the main hall, a little eunuch walked in quickly, immediately knelt down and said loudly: "Your Majesty, the envoy of Qingyun Kingdom brought a table and book to read it by His Majesty, and now he is waiting outside the hall." ”
Everyone was amazed when they heard this.
Mu Chen also knew that at present, there was tension between the Qingyun Kingdom and the Great Zhou Kingdom, and some small-scale conflicts often broke out in the border areas, and the envoy of the Qingyun Kingdom came here at this time for some reason, but he faintly felt that this matter should not be simple.
Outside the main hall, a man in a green brocade robe in a medium shape walked slowly forward with a scroll in his hand, full of style, and behind him, there were two burly men with a strong aura.
The moment these three people stepped on the main hall, a terrifying aura enveloped the entire hall, making everyone present feel a cold air, as if the temperature of the entire hall had dropped by more than ten degrees.
"Wow, why is it so cold all of a sudden?"
"That's right, the weather is getting warmer and warmer, why is it still so cold?"
"How do I feel that this cold aura is emanating from the envoy of the Qingyun Kingdom."
"Don't talk nonsense, be careful of causing trouble."
Several ministers cautiously discussed.
Mu Chen also sensed that something was wrong, he could clearly feel that the two strong men had different evil qi reactions on their bodies, and they were extremely powerful, either the body of the yin spirit or the cultivation of evil skills.
"Envoy of Qingyun Kingdom, Bach has met His Majesty the Emperor of the Great Zhou Kingdom."
The middle-aged man holding the scroll stepped forward with a proud face, and just made a simple salute, that is, he got up and looked around, his face full of disdain.
"Bold, the envoy of Qingyun Kingdom saw that His Majesty the Emperor of the Great Zhou Kingdom did not pay homage, so he didn't kneel down quickly."
And the person who spoke was Cheng Renlin, a general of the Great Zhou State who had great military achievements, although this person was already old, his momentum was not weak at all.
The old emperor on the dragon head throne was also full of anger at this time.
Bach, the envoy of Qingyun Kingdom, said arrogantly: "I am an envoy sent by Qingyun Kingdom, and I will only pay homage to the emperor of my Qingyun Kingdom, and I will not kneel for any other emperor." ”
"Bastard."
Cheng Renlin shouted angrily, and stepped forward to make a move.
"General Cheng, stop, you step back first."
And at this moment, the old emperor finally spoke: "Since Bach is a messenger sent by Qingyun Kingdom, he should treat him with courtesy." ”
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Cheng Renlin bowed and stepped back, but his eyes were staring at Nabach's every move, as long as he dared to act rashly, he would definitely make him pay.
The old emperor said in a deep voice: "I don't know what the Qingyun envoy came to my Great Zhou Kingdom this time?" ”
"Back to His Majesty the Emperor of the Great Zhou Kingdom, I, the Emperor of the Qingyun Kingdom, have sent a letter of letters." As he spoke, Nabach spread out the scroll in his hand and read: "Since Kyushu 357 years later, Qingyun and the Great Zhou have frequent wars, I Qingyun does not want to hurt the lives of the people at the border, and I am willing to establish harmonious relations with the Great Zhou State, as long as the Great Zhou State hands over the twelve cities of terracotta, I Qingyun is willing to establish a hundred years of harmonious friendship with the Great Zhou State, and promise never to step into the territory of the Great Zhou State for half a step, = I hope that His Majesty the Emperor of the Great Zhou State will think twice." ”
As soon as these words came out, the audience was silent, and everyone could hear it, where is this to establish diplomatic relations, this is obviously to carve up the land of his Great Zhou State.
The twelve cities of terracotta are the border military points of the Great Zhou Kingdom, not only the transportation is developed, but also has fertile land, and the economy is prosperous, if this city is handed over, it will definitely have an irreparable impact on the Great Zhou Kingdom.
"Bastard, Xiao Qingyun dares to say wildly, are you really no one in my Great Zhou Kingdom?"
Before the old emperor could speak, Cheng Renlin, who was standing in the crowd, had already stood up and scolded angrily, and then clasped his fists and saluted to the emperor: "Your Majesty, the old minister is willing to lead troops to the border pass, and he must let this Qingyun thief know that he knows the power of my Great Zhou Kingdom." ”
The old emperor sat on the dragon head throne, although he did not speak, but his expression was solemn, his face was gloomy, and his hands were even more clutching the dragon head throne, making a creaking sound, anyone can know that the old emperor was already furious, but he still maintained the demeanor of an emperor.
Although this Bach said that he spoke wildly and came with a book, he was an envoy sent by Qingyun after all, and the so-called confrontation between the two countries did not kill the envoy, this is the rule, if Bach is killed, it will definitely attract the shame of the world.
The old emperor slowly got up and said, "Hmph, the little Qingyun is not Erer, General Cheng, you should step aside." ”
"Yes."
The old emperor turned his head to look at the crown prince Zhao Qiyang who was standing beside him, and asked, "Prince, do you have any opinion on this matter?" ”
Zhao Qiyang was stunned for a moment and then said: "Erchen thinks that since this Qingyun State does not know how to go to the table to try to carve up the territory of my Great Zhou Kingdom, then of course my Great Zhou Kingdom cannot lose its courtesy, and should repair a letter to demonstrate strictness, and if it does not change its repeated teachings, it will send troops to fight." ”
The old emperor smiled slightly, nodded and said, "That's right, then who of you can take on this important task and repair a book on the spot!" ”
However, as soon as these words came out, all the courtiers fell silent, they knew that if this book was not written well, it would be bad if the majesty of the Great Zhou Kingdom would be lost, and it was very likely that the official position would not be guaranteed.
Even General Cheng, who was very excited just now, has no words now, if he fights, he has no problem, but he is a little embarrassed by this book.
Seeing this scene, the old emperor's face was also a little unbearable, and he became extremely gloomy.
Just as Bach, the messenger of Qingyun, was triumphant, a voice broke the silence of the scene.
"Your Majesty, Weichen is willing to repair a book."
And the person who spoke was Mu Chen.
