The Southern Zhou Dynasty was weak, but rich.

If you have money but no ability to protect yourself, this is like holding money to show off. Therefore, the Southern Zhou Dynasty would send people to the Tang Dynasty and the Northern Liao Dynasty every year to pay tribute.

This year's tribute gifts are pretty good, at least the gift list looks pretty good.

But there was a sandalwood box inside, which aroused the interest of the officials of Honglu Temple, and they specially reminded it when it was sent to the palace.

The emperor wanted to personally inspect the tribute gifts from the Southern Zhou Dynasty, and the servants prepared them carefully.

When the time came, the emperor came.

"Unboxing."

One box after another was opened.

It is rare for a chamberlain to be literate, and they usually start to learn to read and write only after being re-employed.

The waiter who opened the sandalwood box looked at the note and thought that Nan Zhou was also strangely behaved and even wrote something to show respect.

The emperor wandered over and saw the piece of paper at a glance.

"What's this?"

The emperor picked it up and took a look!

The word "sluggish" seemed to be blood red, and it immediately stimulated the emperor's anger.

"Someone is coming!"

The medical officer is here.

Check it out!

"Your Majesty, these are all fine... medicinal materials."

"For what?"

"Aphrodisiac." The medical officer is very knowledgeable.

The emperor turned around and went out.

Wave.

The medical officer and the chamberlain who opened the box disappeared that same day.

Han Shitou personally had it made.

The emperor summoned his ministers and what they said was unknown, and then the delegation with Wang Deng as envoy set off.

The Ministry of War dispatches troops and condemns generals, and the Ministry of Households dispatches grain, grass and baggage.

So murderous!

"Close it!"

Han Shitou returned to the mirror.

Seeing the emperor and the imperial concubine talking side by side, he couldn't help but think of something.

The emperor loved his concubine regardless of location, and she came whenever he thought of it.

Like a beast.

Therefore, Han Shitou and his personal servants knew the emperor's abilities very well.

——It’s getting worse!

The emperor is deteriorating, but the dignity of the emperor must be maintained!

The imperial concubine has clear eyebrows and has actually learned... to cheat.

I cannot bear the favor of my concubine.

So, the emperor was very proud.

But Han Shitou knew that the imperial concubine was acting.

Well done.

The emperor is also acting. He knows that his abilities are deteriorating, but he still pretends to be confused.

The two douchebags acted so seamlessly that they both thought the other didn't know.

It wasn't until a great gift from the Southern Zhou Dynasty that this scar was revealed.

Some people say that the emperor wanted to use troops against the Southern Zhou Dynasty because the Southern Zhou Dynasty was rude and instigated to fund the rebels in southern Xinjiang.

But Han Shitou knew.

All this.

It was just because the emperor's self-esteem was severely hit!

emperor!

No more!

…

"drive!"

Dozens of people, riding two horses each, rushed into Chang'an City in a hurry.

Immediately, someone came into the palace to report.

"Your Majesty, Wang Deng has returned from his mission to Northern Liao."

The emperor clenched the scroll in his hand, "How?"

"It's a blessing to be honest!"

"good!"

The emperor stood up and said, "Let them enter the palace. I will see them personally."

"Yes." Han Shitou winked, and the servants left.

The emperor came over and extended his hand.

"Change!"

The imperial concubine looked at him in ecstasy, "Erlang is mighty!"

Han Shitou lowered his head, with a smile in his eyes.

mighty?

Far worse than His Majesty!

Later, Wang Deng and three others arrived.

"Eh!"

Seeing Yang Xuan, Han Shitou exclaimed, "Why is Commander Yang here?"

It's hard to talk about things like this... Yang Xuan was silent.

This young man was not unyielding because of his power, he only knew that he was in the limelight, yes... Wang Deng fell in love with Yang Xuan more and more, but unfortunately the other party had already married a wife, and the woman was still a Zhou family, so he could only regret that he missed this golden turtle son-in-law.

"Your Majesty, when I went to Northern Xinjiang on this trip, I learned that Ambassador Yang was quite familiar with He Lianchun, the uncle of the Emperor of Northern Liao Dynasty, so I wanted to ask He Lianchun to make a detour..."

The emperor nodded, "The method is good."

If you raise this matter directly, He Lianfeng will definitely refuse.

Wang Deng is good, but I have underestimated him in the past. After returning from this trip, it is time for him to become an official. Should I... keep him?

"But He Lianchun was forced into a desperate situation by Ning Xing and happened to escape to Chenzhou. I asked Yang Shijun to assist me and went to Ning Xing in the name of escorting He Lianchun."

"Fighting in the same room!" the emperor said calmly.

Somewhat disdainful.

This is a crow alighting on a pig, not knowing its own evil!

Yang Xuan slandered.

"After arriving in Ningxing, He Lianfeng flatly refused."

This is expected.

Therefore, when Wang Deng said that he was lucky enough to live up to his destiny, how he was lucky enough to live up to his destiny was what the emperor was interested in.

He smiled and turned his eyes slowly.

"He Lianfeng ordered the crown prince and the third prince to accept the matter, but the two of them kept fighting among themselves, and even ordered the assassination of Ambassador Yang."

The emperor snorted coldly.

Han Shitou smiled and couldn't help but glance at Yang Xuan one more time.

The young man is fine. It can be seen that His Majesty's spirit is protecting you in heaven.

"Yang Shijun foiled the assassination and judged that it was the crown prince's fault. He wanted to blame the third prince. Afterwards, the ministers discussed and devised a plan..."
