Phi-Fic Chapter 166: Seeking Skin
Chapter 166: Seeking Skin
Everyone bowed and left, and the emperor summoned the envoy Tu Ning to come in.
This was just the time when Bei Jingchu came back from school at noon.
She had been in classes for the whole morning and was very hungry. She couldn't wait to sit at the table and wait for the meal to be served.
But today, Aye was not waiting for her here.
The aroma of the hot dishes went straight into her nose, tempting her to pick up the chopsticks.
I can't help it, I can't help it.
But she can't eat before the emperor.
【Why hasn’t the dog tyrant come yet? 】
Haoyue next to him almost couldn't stand.
This, this, this...dog tyrant?
Does your Majesty know that you scolded him like this?
Bei Jingchu's stomach was already growling. Actually, if she ate first, it shouldn't be a big problem.
Dad shouldn't care about this kind of thing.
But Bei Jingchu put down his chopsticks and prepared to go to the imperial study to see what the tyrant was doing.
Don't let your workaholic addiction get the better of you and start reviewing documents without sleep or food.
Bei Jingchu felt that she was too miserable. She was only five years old, but she had the worries of a fifty-year-old.
It’s because Lao Deng is too disobedient that he needs a human cub like her to urge him to eat.
She was definitely not hungry, she was just being filial. Yes, that's right, filial piety.
Bei Jingchu felt that she was a very filial daughter.
She walked through the screen wall and came to the door of the imperial study.
Eunuch Jiang was not serving inside, but standing outside the door. It was obvious that there was someone inside.
Bei Jingchu didn’t understand. Why couldn’t they continue cursing after the meeting?
If she were a leader, she would never delay mealtime!
Eunuch Jiang came up and whispered, "Your Highness, His Majesty is talking to Envoy Tu Ning. Do you want to go in? I will go in and inform him first."
He lowered his voice, obviously afraid to disturb the people inside.
Hearing the word Tu Ning, Bei Jingchu suddenly reacted.
【Tu Ning? Isn't it the country that destroyed the Yue Dynasty in ** (original novel)? 】
This distance was enough for Bei Heng to hear her thoughts.
The emperor's eyes darkened. The brush in his hand was fractured by his fingers, but it stubbornly did not break.
Looking at the envoys sitting below, I felt that they had mean eyes and wolfish ambitions.
The envoy felt the emperor's gaze and was very confused.
Wasn't everything fine just now? They even had a pleasant conversation. He was ready to start lobbying when the Emperor of Yue Dynasty was relieved.
Why the sudden hostility?
Jiang Zhixian came to the emperor again and whispered to him that the princess wanted to come in.
Bei Heng had heard it a long time ago, but he was just pretending and waiting for him to report it.
"Let the princess in."
The envoy opened his mouth slightly, somewhat surprised.
The princess and prince of Tunning were absolutely not allowed to enter when the Khan was meeting.
Anyone who disturbs them at this time will be dragged out and whipped.
In his heart, he began to despise the Emperor of Yue.
He can't even control his own children. It seems that such a weak person will not be able to control Yue Chao either.
Therefore, this fertile land of Vietnam should be given to them.
Their Khan is the most wise monarch.
Bei Jingchu walked in and raised her eyebrows when she saw the people below.
[Isn't this the guy who caused trouble outside the palace yesterday? ]
【It turned out to be the Tunin envoy. 】
[What are you thinking? Instead of keeping your tail between your legs when you are sent to Vietnam, you are actually stirring up trouble. ]
The emperor looked at Envoy Tunning below and it was clear from their previous conversation that he was not a reckless or impulsive person.
On the contrary, he is very eloquent and good at speaking. He has also learned the Vietnamese language very well. You can't hear his accent and he speaks very fluently.
If it's intentional, it's a bit strange.
Is there a purpose? Or is it true that you can't control your emotions?
If it is a purpose, then what is the purpose?
If he really had a bad temper, then why did the Khan of Tuning put a person who could not control his emotions in the diplomatic team?
Bei Jingchu came in and found a chair to sit down.
The dissatisfied look in her eyes directly put pressure on the emperor, and she signaled to her father that it was time to eat.
In fact, it was not just her eyes, her inner voice strongly expressed her request: [I’m so hungry, why don’t you eat yet. ]
[It's already eight hours since breakfast, let's have a meal. ]
[Why did I have to get up so early last school? I got up at 4 o'clock and had breakfast, and now I see the shadow of lunch, but you let me just watch. ]
[Eat, eat, eat, I'm hungry, I'm so hungry, why are you still here and not eating? 】
【Chat, chat, chat. What can we talk about? Can’t we chat while eating? 】
[Man is iron and rice is steel. If I don’t eat for a meal, I will be hungry. If I don’t eat again, I will eat people. ]
[Who should we start eating from? This damn envoy. Why can't we just say something at a normal time? Why did he have to rush to eat? Was he doing this on purpose? ]
emperor:......
You need to breathe when speaking, but not when expressing your thoughts.
The little rabbit seemed to be going mad with hunger.
Forget it, let’s eat and talk at the same time.
"It's time for lunch. Do you want to talk while you eat, or after lunch?"
Envoy: ...He wants to talk now.
At this moment, he couldn't help but think of their own Khan, who would never interrupt his work in order to eat in time.
What a hard worker.
The emperor of the Yue Dynasty really couldn't bear any hardship.
With such a monarch, it seemed that the Yue Dynasty began to go downhill.
The three of them ate at separate tables. Bei Jingchu, who had been hungry for the whole morning, ate with relish.
Bei Heng also ate as if no one was around.
But the envoy couldn't eat at all. He came all the way to the Yue Dynasty, not to eat.
"Your Majesty of the Yue Dynasty, the Khan is asking you for an alliance this time to jointly swallow up Yu Hun."
Yuhuo is another foreign country.
In the world of the original novel, only these three countries are powerful.
Tu Ning's army was the strongest, and Yue Dynasty's economy was the strongest.
But the military force cannot be said to be weak. In the original novel, after her unfortunate father took the elixir, his temperament changed drastically in his later years and he became ambitious and ostentatious.
It ultimately dragged down the Yue Dynasty's treasury, and coupled with the improper management of the country by the original male protagonist after taking over, there was a lack of talented generals and commanders.
This allowed Tu Ning to directly reap the fruits of victory.
Bei Jingchu slowed down the pace of eating and pricked up her ears to listen to what they said.
Since Envoy Tu Ning said so, Tu Ning must have plans to attack Yu Hun.
Unfortunately, the original novel did not focus much on this plot, so Bei Jingchu didn’t know about it.
The system's intelligence coverage does not extend beyond Vietnam.
Thinking of this, Bei Jingchu wanted to complain again.
[Your system is not smart at all! ]
system:[......]
