Zhang Yi summoned the envoys of the Tsarist Empire in Shangyuan Hall.

Next to King Liu Kai's throne, there is a rosewood semicircular throne, which is slightly smaller than the king's hollow lacquered golden dragon throne.

Zhang Yi is wearing a yellow robe and sitting on a rosewood throne. He is majestic and has the aura of a young monarch. He cannot sit on the throne now, and he will not sit on the king's throne for a long time in the future. , because to the outside world, the king is recuperating.

Xiaolong and Xiao Han were standing on the left side of the court in official uniforms, Niu Ben and Shi Gandang were standing on the right side of the court in armor, and there were guardsmen in bright armor standing on both sides.

Zhang Yi looked down from a high position and scanned the audience, quite satisfied with the formation. Although the brothers were all young men in their early twenties, their difficult life experiences had long forged them into tough men like steel.

Today is July 7, 2103. Zhang Yi interacts with foreign envoys for the first time in the wasteland world. For him, it is the beginning of his journey into the world.

I'm just secretly angry that the first person I come into contact with is an asshole.

Yes, Zhang Yi can be sure that they are evil people.

The announcement from the minister came to my ears: "Golovin, Kantel, and Ignatiev, the envoys of the Tsarist Empire, have come to pay homage to the Chief Minister of the Kingdom of China, Mr. Zhang Yi!"

I saw three big men walking into the hall, striding towards Zhang Yi with their heads held high. The three men were wearing Chinese brocade robes and locally produced bearskin cloaks. They were tall and burly, with thick beards, just like the three grizzly bears. .

The three of them wore golden double-headed eagle badges on their chests, which was the symbol of the Tsarist Empire.

When they came closer, the three of them looked around, their blue eyes full of cold light, not hiding their aggressive coldness and arrogance.

"You are not the great king Liu Kai!" Golovin, the leader, stared at Zhang Yi and said in half-baked Chinese.

Kantel, who was next to him, snorted disdainfully: "He is Zhang Yi, who was born a bandit!"

Ignatiev uttered a few words in unintelligible Russian.

"Discourteous!" Xiaolong yelled, "You barbarians, why don't you bow to the chief minister when you see him?"

Niu Ben and Shi Gandang were gearing up, wishing that their righteous brother would give the order and step forward to beat the three guys. Although the three of them were tall, they were still half a head shorter in front of the two fierce generals Niu Ben and Shi Gandang, especially Shi Gandang. Dare to be brave and confident that one person can defeat three people.

Zhang Yi sneered.

The messenger was rude and arrogant, and his words revealed that they had been colluding with Wu Rui for a long time and were very familiar with the situation in old China.

"When we see King Liu Kai, we will naturally become friendly. When we see Zhang Yi, the bandit who wants to seize the king's throne, what should I pray for?" Golovin stared at Zhang Yi with his head raised and said fiercely, "We know your details. Coming from the barbaric Mopan City, you used deception to win the trust of King Liu Kai. We have every reason to suspect that King Liu Kai has been killed by you!"

The imperial guards on both sides of the hall raised their spears and beat the ground, making threatening noises. Hundreds of people glared at Golovin.

"Don't talk nonsense, Golovin," Zhang Yi warned word by word. "You know that the officers and soldiers of the Royal Forest Army are extremely loyal to the king. The king is in good health and has authorized me to manage the affairs of the country. If you talk nonsense again, I will I’m afraid you’ll die without a burial place!”

These words were powerful and powerful, echoing in the hall. The three envoys were shocked and their arrogance was slightly restrained.

Firstly, they heard Wu Rui describe the situation. King Liu Kai favored Zhang Yi, and Zhang Yi had no motive to kill the king. Secondly, the envoys were all smart people and knew that the Royal Guards were the most loyal guards to the king. Their performance It proved that the king was indeed safe and sound. Thirdly, they knew that Zhang Yi had risen from the bandits' den and could do anything in a rage.

The three of them looked at each other and it was time to talk.

"Zhang Yi, Zhang Fu, hehehe," Golovin said with a smile, "We know that King Liu Kai is the monarch of this kingdom, and Prime Minister Wu Rui is the king's most trusted and reliable assistant, until you appeared and destroyed The relationship between the king and his ministers. We believe that you climbed to a high position through unfair means. We have something to say and want to speak to the king directly!"

"Golovin, Wu Rui is a traitor who absconded after the rebellion failed. We will bring him to justice and impose the death penalty. Chief Zhang has received the grace of the Holy Spirit and the support of the people. You don't understand the situation, how can you talk nonsense?" Xiaolong said plausibly. , "Ten thousand steps back, this is our internal affairs, and you will never be allowed to interfere. The king will not see you. Now Zhang Shoufu is in charge of the overall situation. If you have anything to say, say it, and if you have nothing to say, stand down!"

Xiao Han, Niu Ben and Shi Gandang nodded repeatedly. Only Yige and Xiaolong spoke strictly, neither humble nor overbearing, and acted both soft and hard, which ordinary people couldn't say.

At this time, Zhang Yi saw Xiao Liu appearing behind the curtain on one side of the hall. She was dressed in military uniform and had a long sword on her waist, encouraging her husband with her eyes.

Zhang Yi smiled at her. His beloved wife was worried. But there was nothing to be afraid of. Zhang Yi could even deal with ferocious beasts. Who were these guys?

Seeing Brother Zhang Yi staring at them with eager eyes and full of vigorous strength, which was definitely not easy to control, the three envoys finally realized that if they didn't say something, their trip would really be in vain.

"In that case, let me tell you the truth," Golovin said angrily, "We are here to have a good thing and a bad thing. Of course, the bad thing is for you, and it is a good thing for the kingdom."

This guy has a very high level of Chinese and is really a China expert.

"You might as well tell me the good things first." Zhang Yi was curious about what good things the weasel could do by paying New Year greetings to the rooster.

The little willow behind the curtain also pricked up his ears and listened.

Just listen to Golovin say: "One year ago, His Highness Nicholas, the Crown Prince of our country, intended to marry your beautiful Princess Xiaoliu, but unexpectedly he was rejected by King Liu Kai. For this reason, we made another request and hoped that your country would reconsider. , forging a good relationship, this is a great thing for you, and from now on you can be under the protection of the Tsarist Empire..."

Before they finished speaking, Niu Ben and Shi Gandang roared, while Xiaolong and Xiao Han couldn't hold back and were furious.

Zhang Yi suddenly stood up from his seat and couldn't help but put his hand on the handle of the knife. This knife was just given to him by his father. It is called the Chinese Dragon Bird Knife. One side of the knife is engraved with a flying dragon and the other side is engraved with a phoenix. It's a rare sword.

The Tsarist Empire bullied people too much, rejecting them once was enough, and shamelessly came to propose marriage. They said it was for protection, but in fact they wanted to annex China.

How can Zhang Yi not be angry? The ambition of the wolf is obvious. These guys are clearly here to stir up trouble. Why not kill them!

"Bah!" Xiao Liuxiu behind the curtain widened her eyes, vomited, and almost rushed out. However, Xiao Liu had been influenced by her father since she was a child, and she still knew about politics and diplomacy. She quickly controlled her impulse and asked Zhang Yi He waved his hand to signal him to calm down.

Drawing a sword and killing people in the court after a disagreement is not what a monarch would do. Besides, the fact that they proposed marriage means that they don't know about the princess's marriage yet, so they just need to explain it.

Zhang Yi realized this, controlled his anger, sat down, and smiled coldly.
