Chapter 452: Exploration(1/2)

"enough!!!"

"Noisy, noisy, really rude."

"Han Jingtong, do you know that in recent years, grain production has been reduced. If we want to join forces to resist the Xia Kingdom, it will not be beneficial to the country."

Han Jingtong rolled his eyes and could only use his trump card: "Madam, we were talking to the king earlier."

"Your Majesty also feels that Xia's national power is getting stronger and stronger, and he is afraid that he may have plans to invade the south. Just when we were just discussing the matter of joining forces, your Majesty was actually assassinated. I'm afraid there is something hidden in this matter, and it is not simple."

Everyone in the court looked at each other with frightened expressions on their faces. This Han Jingtong must have lost his mind and gone crazy.

In this way, the crime is very serious, and it will even directly push Shang Guo to the opposite side of Xia State. If once it is confirmed, if Shang Guo does not send troops, wouldn't it be that his own reputation and the country's face have been weakened, for example, it can only be washed away with blood?

clean.

Li Lu stood up immediately and shouted angrily, "How outrageous. You, a foreign minister, are talking nonsense here, do you want to plunge our country into war?"

He turned around and cupped his hands towards Madam Yinglie and said, "Madam, this nonsense must be killed on the spot, otherwise there will be endless troubles."

Mrs. Yinglie frowned slightly and said displeasedly, "General Li also thinks that Shang Guo is no match for Xia Guo?"

"No, our country has strong soldiers and horses. The hundreds of thousands of troops have never been afraid of any country. However, at this time, we are short of food and grass. It is unwise to rashly attack a powerful country that is not weaker than our country. It is really unwise to let this man's monster words confuse the public.

"

"If there is a conflict with the Xia State, wouldn't it mean that the Liao State would reap the benefits?"

Although Li Lu was a military commander, what he said was reasonable and well-founded, making everyone present unable to find fault. Some people even showed hostile expressions towards Han Jingtong.

"General Li, Liao Guo has agreed. We are waiting for the letters of credence from Shang Guo and Xing Guo. As long as the three kingdoms unite, we can destroy the Xia State in one fell swoop. By then, our three families will share equally the thousands of miles of fertile land in Guanzhong."

Just when some people were interested in making a move, Mrs. Yinglie waved her hand and said directly, "Han Jingtong, you can go down first. At this time, the country's capital is being used and a long-term plan is needed."

Han Jingtong looked around and found that no one responded to him, so he retreated helplessly.

On the street of Fuyan, a restaurant servant welcomed a man with a high crown, black clothes, and a sword, and a cold face into the private room of the restaurant.

When the man entered, he was stunned for a moment, then turned around and left, only because he was dressed as a Xia man.

The people in the box immediately waved their hands and said quickly, "Brother Teng, please stay."

The maid in the restaurant closed the door of the private room in a wise manner and stepped back.

Li Teng said expressionlessly, "You pretended to be an old friend of Prime Minister Liao and lured me here. What's your intention?"

Wang Shushu took out a seal and stamped it and said with a smile, "I am indeed an old friend of Prime Minister Liao. This thing was a gift from Prime Minister Liao. Brother Teng should have seen it before."

Li Teng picked up the stamp and looked at it carefully, and the coldness on his face gradually relaxed. "Who are you, and what do you want from me?"

Wang Shushu said, "I am a subordinate of Lord Wu'an. I want to send a letter to Prime Minister Liao, and I would like to ask Brother Teng to do it for me."

Li Teng thought for a while and decided that he wanted to go back. It would be nice to be a favor. Thinking of this, he asked, "Where is the letter?"

"Not urgent."

Wang Shushu pointed at the food table and said with a smile, "Shusui, you have to prepare a little wine to reward the messenger. Brother Teng, please."

"please."

After the two took their seats, they started talking.

Wang Shushu poured him water and wine, observed his face, and said, "Brother Teng, is there something on your mind?" ωωw.

"My lord, you are worrying too much."

"Brother Teng, don't worry when you drink. Shui will never ask Brother Teng about Young Master Han and suggest the three kingdoms unite."

Li Teng's expression changed, and his heart was filled with turmoil. How did this person find out, but he immediately calmed down.

He cupped his hands and said, "Teng followed the young master into Fu Yan to replace King Liao and greet King Shang about his assassination."

Wang Shushu shrugged his broad sleeves with a smile on his face and said with a smile, "Brother Teng, in the court hall today, Young Master Han Da made a lot of nonsense, which is nothing more than mentioning the joint fight against Xia."

"I know the plan of the Three Kingdoms like the back of my hand." Wang Shushu looked at him deeply.

Li Teng smiled awkwardly. He didn't expect that this person's information was so magical. His identity must not be simple.

The two looked at each other and smiled, eating meat and drinking wine.

While pushing the cup and changing the cup, Wang Shushu smiled and said, "The letter sent to Prime Minister Liao will be sent to you another day. I have something to ask of you today."

"Your Majesty's orders." After getting acquainted with him, and being a subordinate of the famous Yuan Wu Anjun, Li Teng's tone was slightly humble.

"As the envoys of the Three Kingdoms, I have prepared some small gifts, but I can't see them. Please ask Brother Teng to do it for me."

Li Teng was stunned and slightly surprised. Although gift-giving was popular in various countries, something felt wrong.

"Sir, there may be something wrong with this."

Wang Shusui shook his head and said with a smile, "The envoys from all the countries are united for state affairs, and the small gifts they receive are only for personal relations and do not interfere with each other."

"Brother Teng, if you feel embarrassed, you don't need to say where you came from when you offer a small gift."

Li Teng's performance under Young Master Han was not satisfactory. He was scolded a few days ago and felt that he had no future. This forced him to consider his future.

It's better to take this opportunity and sell this person to him. Not only can you make good friends with Lord Wu An, but you can also make good friends with Prime Minister Liao Guo.

Thinking of this, I agreed. Anyway, it wasn't a big deal, and I didn't leak any confidential information. Others were better informed than me.

A few days later, Wang Shushu came to where Li Teng stayed and looked at the large and small bags behind his car. It was obvious that he was leaving Fu Yan.

This time the small gift was not only for the envoy, but also for Li Teng. To Wang Shumi, this was really a small gift, but to Li Teng who was a little cash-strapped, this gift was not small.

Seeing Wang Shumao coming, he immediately greeted him from the door, and the two of them held hands.

"The tasks assigned by your Excellency have been completed."

"Oh? Did the envoys of Shangguo and Xingguo say anything?"

Li Teng thought for a while, shook his head and said, "I have nothing to say except thank you."

Wang Shumao breathed a sigh of relief, cupped his hands and said, "Thank you, Brother Teng. Then we'll see you in the future."

"Brother Ma, walk slowly."

A motorcade drove slowly towards the city gate.

Li Tengyao looked at it for a few times. It was rare to meet someone with such an appetite. He didn't know when he would be able to eat meat, drink wine, and talk freely again.

When he turned around to go in, he saw Han Jingtong standing at the door with a gloomy face. He immediately raised his hands and saluted.

"Son."

Han Jingtong looked gloomy and stared at Li Teng. After a long time, he said without any emotion, "You colluded with the Xia people!"

Li Teng immediately defended, "Young Master misunderstood, I was just running errands and delivering gifts for the Xia Kingdom's envoys."

"Who are you giving the gift to?"

"The princes of Shangguo and Xingguo gave gifts."

Han Jingtong was surprised and immediately stepped forward and asked urgently, "Have they all taken it?"

"Young Master, take them all."

Han Jingtong's face was full of hatred, he beat his chest and said, "You have fallen into the Xia people's conspiracy. He used your hand to give gifts to the two young masters. This is to measure the attitude of the Three Kingdoms to unite."

"You are my close servant. The young masters of the two countries all thought that the gift came from the Liao Kingdom and accepted it happily. The people of this Xia must have concluded that the three countries have the intention to unite."

Li Teng's heart suddenly felt as if it had fallen into an ice cellar. He twitched his lips and said bitterly, "Sir, I didn't expect this."

Han Jingtong gritted his teeth and said, "You have ruined a big thing."

After saying that, he walked away. After taking just two steps, he turned around and said coldly, "You will return to Liao Country immediately."

Li Teng's heart felt cold. If this happened, wouldn't he be thrown into the cold palace and never be hired?

"Master?"

He wanted to argue some more, but when he saw Han Jingtong's cold gaze, all he could say was just one word.

"promise."

After being severely reprimanded by Han Jingtong, Li Teng felt a little disheartened. He packed some bags hastily and walked in the direction of Liao Guo with only a horse.

Autumn has not officially arrived yet, and the mountains are still lush and green. Li Teng is a little depressed on the trail. He does not gallop on the horse, but sits on the horse and walks casually.

Not long after, a rural tea shop came into view. There were a few old tables at the door, the pot on the stove was constantly steaming, and it obviously sold some snacks.

When they saw someone coming, the restaurant owner immediately came forward to solicit customers and said with a smile, "Sir, come and have a bowl of tea."

Maybe he was in a bad mood, so Li Teng didn't think much, got off his horse and walked towards the tea shop.

Before he could sit down, he saw a figure walking out.

"Brother Teng, Brother Teng." As soon as Wang Shusui came over, he immediately raised his hands and saluted.

Li Teng smashed his lips and said "Drive~" with a cold face, leading the horse around Wang Shusui and walking towards the front.

When Wang Shusui saw this scene, he immediately stepped forward, held down the horse's head, and shouted, "Brother Teng, stay."

Li Teng was already in a bad mood. When he found out the reason, his face suddenly became stern. "My lord, you have framed me, what else can you do?"

With a serious look on his face, Wang Shusui reached out and took out a bamboo slip and said, "Brother Teng, this is a letter to Prime Minister Liao. Brother Teng promised to deliver it for me."
