Chapter 112: You Say It Again, Who Died?!
Duo had just returned to the palace to prepare for a sumptuous dinner and a pot of good wine to treat herself.
Before the flask could be opened, the chief of the guard, who was in charge of liaison with the South Vietnamese Kingdom, hurried over.
Emperor Qi Duo suddenly had an appetite.
Count on time.
It should be the news from Xiang Yu.
"This kid is really good at pinching the time to send good news, the envoy of the Northern Qi to support South Vietnam is only one city away from the national capital."
"When the news comes to them at this time, it will inevitably catch them off guard!"
Although Xiang Yu took a long time, it is said that some of the envoys of the Northern Qi Dynasty stayed in Jinling, especially the eighth-order martial artist Zhao Dan.
It is not easy to take down the head of the prince of Nanyue in the middle of dealing with him.
He also understands this.
It was decided to give more rewards to the project.
Anyway, the emperor of the Northern Qi Dynasty was at odds with Zhang Chengqian, and now that the prince of Nanyue is dead, it is even more impossible for the Northern Qi to meddle in the affairs of Nanyue.
Who will seek justice for a dead man who has no effect?
Nations intersect.
Profit comes first.
"Why don't you speak?"
When Mi Duo called the chief guard who reported the news into the main hall, and found that the other party did not speak, his face showed dissatisfaction.
"Return, return to Your Majesty......"
The chief guard hurriedly knelt on one knee and handed over a black envelope with trembling hands.
Black represents mourning.
Red represents good news.
In order to be able to intuitively see at a glance that there are preparations before opening, the rules that Duo has specially set up.
"The mourning of South Vietnam? Shouldn't the death of the prince of Nanyue be good news? ”
Qi Duo didn't understand what kind of medicine was sold in this gourd.
Or was the border general who reported the news mistaken?
"Bring it."
After Qi Duo finished speaking, the guard who delivered the letter took a few steps on his knees and handed over the envelope, and then hurriedly took a few steps back.
The cautious appearance made Mi Duo suddenly notice that something was wrong.
But he still didn't anticipate the seriousness of the matter.
In his mind, the most serious thing was that after Xiang Yuzhi successfully assassinated the prince of Nanyue, he was intercepted by Zhao Dan.
But he had nothing to fear.
The number of Zhenguo Nine Products of the Western Chu State is comparable to that of the Northern Qi Kingdom, unless the Northern Qi Kingdom wants to fight to the death, it will only make Xiang Yuzhi suffer some hardships, and it will definitely not hurt Xiang Yuzhi's life.
Sizzle.
The letter is opened.
When he saw the contents of the letter, his pupils shrank suddenly, and he had a hellish expression on his face.
"How is this possible?!"
The content on the stationery is simple.
Just five words-
Xiang Yu is dead!
He could also see that the handwriting was written by Song Zongbo, the chief general stationed at the border gates adjacent to South Vietnam.
It's definitely not a lie.
Xiang Yuzhi, dead?
Qi Duo never expected that a small Jinling would make Xiang's father and son all collapse here.
Bang!
He slammed the table.
The table broke in half from the middle, and all the food and drinks on it were shattered and spilled on the floor.
"Damn Zhao Dan! He must have killed Xiang Yuzhi! ”
Qi Duo is angry.
At this time, the news came, and he finally knew the truth of the Northern Qi envoy's friction on the road.
This is specifically waiting for them to start a war with Da Ying, and they can't draw troops, and even the ninth-order masters who are sitting in the town will go to the town to compete with Da Ying, so Zhao Dan can be unscrupulous.
Damn it!
Damn it!
"Your Majesty, there is another urgent message."
The captain of the guard trembled and pulled another letter from his bosom.
The letter was not marked on a yellow paper, indicating that it was an ordinary intelligence letter.
Qi Duo's heart was not yet calm, and when he saw this letter, he knew that it should be an explanation for the urgent letter just now.
"I also deliberately sealed the funeral report of Xiang Yu's death, which is really careful."
Miduo said through gritted teeth.
He knew that Song Zongbo was kindly afraid that he would be too angry, so he gave him a psychological preparation in advance.
But this kind of psychological preparation might as well not be given!
Open another letter.
When he saw the contents clearly, he was so angry that he tore up the letter and shredded it.
"Abominable South Vietnam! Damn Zhang Chengqian! ”
"He actually raised an eighth-order martial artist under Lone's nose?"
Pretend to be a pig and eat a tiger.
Zhang Chengqian's old boy is tired and crooked!
The chief guard who delivered the message was also shocked when he heard this.
There are eighth-order martial artists in the country of South Vietnam?
In this case, they will have to be more polite in their diplomacy with South Vietnam in the future?
"Someone!"
Qi Duo's face turned grim and he shouted angrily.
The palace steward hurriedly lowered his hand.
"What does Your Majesty command?"
"Arrange for the household department to prepare for the arrival of the Northern Qi envoy group."
In itself, Qi Duo didn't want to pay attention to the Northern Qi envoy group, and was ready to give them a dismount.
But now.
An eighth-order martial artist appeared in South Vietnam, and the situation changed.
An eighth-order martial artist is not terrible, what is terrible is that the appearance of this eighth-order martial artist was not exposed until Xiang Yu's death.
It shows that Nanyue still has hole cards that he doesn't know.
"No wonder the surnamed Xiao values Nanyue so much, Gu really thinks that the prince of Nanyue is the illegitimate son of him and Mo Qing, so he helps each other so much, and now it seems that this Nanyue is afraid that he is an ally he has wooed."
Damn it!
Xiang Yu died in vain.
It was impossible for him to go to war with South Vietnam, which had the support of the Northern Qi, for the sake of his dead father and son.
It's just that how to return those captives, he must not let the South Vietnamese lions open their mouths and hurt their morale and people's hearts.
"Tell the prime minister and the other five to go to the temple to discuss state affairs!"
"No."
Qi Duo glanced at the good wine that had been spilled on the ground, and his heart was depressed.
There is nowhere to attack this breath, so he can only count this account on Zhang Chengqian, who dares to deceive him.
"He also quietly expressed with Gu that he wanted to separate half of the country and Gu, leaving him with the Zhang royal family for thousands of years, phew!"
When you are separated from the Great Horse Kingdom, you will free up your hands to destroy the South Yue Kingdom!
……
Jiazhou, coastal.
Zhang Chengqian, who had been resting here for many days, was drinking and chatting with the royal family and dignitaries as usual.
Zhang Chengqian was originally worried that Zhang Junlin would have the support of Xiao Shuo, the emperor of the Northern Qi Dynasty, so he would not take him as an emperor in his eyes.
Fortunately, there are excerpts from Jinling and Zhenzhou every day, which are constantly handed over to let him understand the general trend of the national situation.
As long as the assassin matter is completely over, he can return to Jinling and take over the government affairs.
"Your Majesty, what is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince doing to open up the wasteland and divide the land and the decree that all the people are soldiers, so that now everyone in South Vietnam is complaining, and Your Majesty doesn't care about it?"
After three rounds of wine and five flavors of food, many powerful people immediately spoke out to denounce His Royal Highness the Prince.
It is said that because of the tragic situation of the new decree, the people are called a leader.
They made up the complaints, but the losses in the interior were not made up by them.
Jinling and Zhenzhou were originally prosperous places of commerce in South Vietnam, and they were reluctant to move north and south with their families.
Unexpectedly, after they left, those third-rate magnates relied on the new decree of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to faintly surpass them.
How can they tolerate this.
His Majesty the Emperor receives the recitals from the west every day, and he is happy every day, but he doesn't know that this Jinling and Zhenzhou have become the territory of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince from top to bottom.
"Your Majesty, Weichen has heard from the servants at home in the past few days that there have been many strange things in Zhenzhou, and the most strange thing is the death of Xia Guozhang."
Some people couldn't help it and began to mention His Majesty the Emperor.
Zhang Chengqian, who was drinking, was choked and coughed.
He put down his cup and looked at the minister who had spoken, his brow furrowed.
"You repeat, who's dead?"
Xia Guozhang is dead?
That old man is a third-order martial artist, and he is full of energy and can live a long life, how can he die?
Again.
If Xia Guozhang died, Zhang Junlin was in Zhenzhou, why didn't he report it to him?
"Report!"
