"That's it, let's not fight this battle." After a long stalemate, Xiang Kunlun finally sighed and said helplessly.
Fan Ju couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this.
To be honest, if Xiang Kunlun insists on going on the expedition, there is nothing he can do.
Although the king's whip is in hand, it can only be used on the premise that the emperor is stupid and unethical.
Since the current Emperor Jianwu can use a reign name like Jianwu, we can imagine his ambitions.
His martial prowess is unparalleled in the world, and when it comes to fighting, he is even more courageous than anyone else.
For such an emperor, you can say that he is confident, arrogant, and even willful.
But these four words have nothing to do with mediocrity and ignorance.
"Then let the news come in. I'll send them back to the country after a few perfunctory words." Xiang Kunlun regained his bored look and said.
"promise!"
"The envoy of the Great Qian Dynasty, Li Changkong, is here to see you!"
The eunuch's high-pitched voice spread far through the hall.
After a while, Li Changkong and Li Jibei, led by the soldiers, finally entered the court hall.
As soon as he entered the door, Li Jibei felt that his whole body was locked, and he couldn't help but stare at Xiang Kunlun on the dragon throne.
He felt a strong death threat from the other party!
Although the opponent's momentum was not directed at him, even so, it still made him breathless.
You know, since he challenged the world's heroes in Bashan, Shuzhou, and perfected his Night Rain Spear, Li Jibei has never felt such a sense of oppression again.
Xiang Kunlun, the only suspected great master in the world, really deserves his reputation!
However, Li Jibei didn't know that his surprise would cause big trouble.
I saw Long Zuo striding out and scolding sternly: "Bold!"
"How dare you, the envoys, not to kneel down when you see me courting the Emperor!"
Xiang Kunlun, who was sitting on the dragon throne, couldn't help but look a little ugly when he heard this.
As the emperor of Chu, he attached great importance to the etiquette of the people from all over the world.
After all, there may not necessarily be a problem with saluting, but there must be a problem with not saluting!
Fan Ju's eyes lit up when he saw this, and he planned to order the two men to be separated without giving Li Changkong a chance to speak.
However, just before he spoke, Li Changkong spoke first!
He fell to his knees with a plop and said sincerely: "O minister of a small country, please forgive me!"
When Xiang Kunlun heard this, his expression couldn't help but improve a little.
What Li Changkong said was beautiful. Not only did he admit his mistake, he also claimed to be a minister of a small country.
If Daqian and Dajin are small countries, then who is the big country?
The answer is obvious, isn't it Da Chu?
This was a secret compliment to Da Chu, and it also indirectly showed that Da Qian was willing to respect Da Chu.
Xiang Kunlun naturally smiled when he heard these words.
However, superficial work still needs to be done.
"Tell me, what are you guilty of?"
"This good friend next to me is not a rude person. He just grew up in a small country and has little knowledge. He has never seen such a majestic person as your majesty."
"Now that I can see the holy face, I feel so excited that I lose my etiquette for a moment."
When Li Jibei heard this, he felt a surge of shame and anger in his heart.
Da Qian is not as good as Da Chu, but back then, both Gaozu Qian and Emperor Qian Wu were well-known figures!
Definitely not inferior to Xiang Kunlun today.
How could Li Changkong so arouse others' ambition and destroy his own prestige!
What's more, what's the use of such a few fluttering words?
How could a stubborn person like Xiang Kunlun expose this matter just because of your simple words of praise?
So in his opinion, this move was really a stupid move.
He couldn't even imagine how Li Changkong, who was always smart and smart, could come up with such a stupid trick.
But it was his fault that he was frightened by Xiang Kunlun's momentum and forgot to salute for a moment, causing them to lose the opportunity.
However, just when Li Jibei thought this.
Little did he know that Fan Ju had already frowned and looked at Li Changkong with fear in his eyes.
Based on his understanding of His Majesty, His Majesty will definitely step on this trap!
As expected, after Xiang Kunlun heard this, he was immediately overjoyed and laughed loudly and said: "It's no wonder that you are innocent, so I will forgive you."
"Our country, Dachu, is located in the Central Plains. It is a large country that has inherited 400 years of Han culture and is under the command of heaven. It attaches the highest importance to etiquette."
"When your noble envoy comes, he should be well entertained. If you come, please give him a seat!"
After a while, Li Jibei, who had already sat down, felt a little confused. The development of the situation was beyond his expectation.
Is it possible that the rumored headstrong Emperor Jianwu is so easy to talk to?
"I know the purpose of your envoy's coming, but Da Chu also has its own difficulties."
"How about this? I will give you two thousand elite soldiers and a thousand Chu king's cavalry. How about you use these soldiers to break the siege of Shanhaiguan?"
As soon as these words came out, Fan Ju's face became even more ugly, and Li Jibei's face became even more confused.
Two thousand elites don't matter, but a thousand Chu king's cavalry are extremely precious!
This is Da Chu's ace cavalry, one of the three great cavalry in the world that can rival Beiyuan's most elite wolf cavalry!
Even if it is only a thousand, it is extremely precious.
In the hands of Xiang Kunlun, these one thousand people can be worth the effect of ten thousand, or even tens of thousands!
Now I give it away as soon as I say it, which can be said to be the most benevolent and righteous.
When Li Changkong heard this, he immediately looked grateful and bowed his head: "Your Majesty is right, Bei Yuan is so powerful now. Even if it is as strong as Da Chu, we don't dare to overwhelm it."
"Your Majesty's ability to give three thousand elites is already a great gift. I am deeply grateful."
Upon hearing this, Xiang Kunlun's brows that had just relaxed couldn't help but frown again.
"What a joke, do you really think I'm afraid of Tuobatian?"
"I regard these foreign races as local chickens and dogs!" Xiang Kunlun snorted coldly, his words full of disdain for Bei Yuan.
Hearing this, Li Changkong nodded and said with some reluctance: "Yes, your Majesty is right."
"I just have something to say, I don't know whether to say it or not."
Upon hearing this, Fan Ju didn't know that Li Changkong was going to cause trouble.
Previously, because Li Changkong was an envoy from another country, before the conversation between him and Xiang Kunlun, the king of Chu, was over, he, Fan Ju, even if he was the prime minister of the dynasty, could not interrupt, otherwise it would be disrespectful of etiquette.
But now Fan Ju couldn't care less, and said hurriedly: "Since it's not necessary to talk about it, there's no need to talk about it. Your envoy has come a long way, so he must be exhausted."
"It's better to go to the posthouse early to rest, and when you have enough energy, you can go back with three thousand elites to help Shanhaiguan."
When Li Changkong heard this, he stopped talking and looked at Xiang Kunlun again, as if he was about to say something. Finally, he sighed helplessly and said, "That's all, I will leave."
However, just as Li Changkong turned around to leave.
After all, Xiang Kunlun couldn't help but said: "Wait a minute, let him say it!"
