Chapter 85: Yong State and Nan Zhao Have a Grudge?

Shen Ning looked around and landed on these familiar faces. An overwhelming hatred came over her heart, making her want to kill these people with a thousand knives right now.

"I heard that Marquis Zhongyong is young and promising, and he is the most trusted young minister of Emperor Nan Zhao." Ji Yucang's voice was cold and ruthless, with an imperceptible chill, "I wonder if I, the king, are lucky enough to see Marquis Zhongyong's skills?"

Han Xun's expression froze for a moment, and then he smiled humbly: "I only know some three-legged cat skills, and I don't dare to show off in front of the regent."

"Three-legged cat?" Yan Qingchen glanced over, as if confused, "Didn't the general just say that Marquis Zhongyong is only slightly inferior to the Princess of War?"

After the words fell, Han Xun completely froze and was speechless.

The envoys of Nanzhao were both uneasy and puzzled.

What happened to the kings and ministers of the Yong Kingdom? Do they have grudges against Nan Zhao or Marquis Zhongyong?

Why did you target Marquis Zhongyong in the first place?

Shouldn't they talk about marriage first?

"Prince Regent." The middle-aged general spoke with a respectful and humble attitude, "I am here to establish a friendly alliance with the Yong State on the order of my emperor, and also to ask for the military assistance of the Yong State. In order to express our Sincerity, I specially offer the two princesses, and hope that the Yong Kingdom will agree to send troops——"

"Since you are asking for help from others, you should adopt the attitude of asking for help from others." Ji Yucang's voice was cold and ruthless, and his eyes fell on Han Xun's face, "You are the party asking for help, don't forget your own position."

Han Xun looked into his cold eyes and felt an uncontrollable chill in his heart.

He was almost certain that the regent and his wife were targeting him, and the eldest princess of Pingyao was also targeting him.

But he didn't understand why.

Why did the regent target him?

Does he have a deep grudge against him?

The middle-aged general said: "The regent is right. We have something to ask for. The conditions will naturally be set by your country. Please make it clear to the regent."

Ji Yucang turned his head and looked at Shen Ning: "Princess, what are your conditions?"

The ministers of Nan Zhao were slightly shocked.

Regent of Yong State What does this mean?

It was a matter of family and country that related to the alliance between the two countries, and he actually asked a weak female for her opinion?

"Prince Regent." Duke Zhen finally couldn't help but speak, "Diplomatic relations are a major matter between the two countries. The Prince Regent and the two prime ministers should represent the Yong Kingdom and talk to Nan Zhao in detail. Shen Ning is just a boudoir girl. Even though she is married The regent is his wife, and she should not interfere in diplomatic matters easily. I hope the regent will be cautious. "

Ji Yucang didn't even look at him, she treated him like nothing during the whole process.

"I have no conditions." Shen Ning's tone was indifferent, as if she didn't hear what Duke Zhen Guo said, "Before discussing the marriage, there are two things that need to be resolved."

Master Nan Zhaoji spoke respectfully: "Princess Regent, please speak."

"First, I invite Marquis Zhongyong to compete with me. If you win, we can discuss sending troops to assist."

"Second, please give me a good explanation, your envoys. Your General Ling is good at causing weddings in the Princess's Mansion. If we don't get a reasonable explanation, we will not talk about a friendly alliance with you."

After saying this, she slowly stood up from the table and looked coldly at Han Xun, who was sitting at the guest seat on the right: "Please."

Han Xun frowned: "Princess, the alliance between the two countries is a major matter for the family and the country. How can the princess be so motivated?"

"Shen Ning, what are you doing?" Zhen Guo Gong stood up anxiously and said in a fierce tone, "You have no power to restrain a chicken, what can you do here? Why don't you sit down quickly!"

Han Xun turned to look at Lord Zhen Guo with a subtle look: "This is..."

"I am the father of the regent princess." Duke Zhenguo bowed his hand in greeting, "The princess is young, and Marquis Zhongyong does not need to be familiar with her."

"Dong Zhenguo." Ji Yucang looked at him expressionlessly, his eyes were cold and biting, "I haven't spoken yet, why are you anxious?"

Duke Zhen's face changed slightly: "The Regent doesn't know something. Although Ning'er has been a bit of a three-legged cat since elementary school, she is only stronger than the average weak woman. She has no chance of winning when she meets Lian Jiazi. She takes care of the big things by herself. It’s a big deal to lose the Yong Kingdom’s face. I hope the regent will think twice.”

"The Duke of Zhen is worrying too much." Princess Pingyao said at the right moment, "The Princess Regent is just a weak woman. Even if she loses, she won't lose much. It's just the first time we meet today. The envoys of Yong Kingdom and Nan Zhao are very interested in each other." It’s just unfamiliarity, it’s just a discussion to liven up the atmosphere, it’s not that serious.”

Han Xun held the wine cup, and it could be heard from their conversation that the Princess Regent was probably just a bit more aggressive and liked to bluff and show off her power in front of everyone.

It shouldn't be anything to worry about.

"Diplomatic relations between the two countries are indeed a matter of family and state, so the princess wants to test whether Marquis Zhongyong is qualified to talk to us." Ji Yucang said, "Since the princess has mentioned it, I hope you can cooperate."

The middle-aged general also looked a little unhappy.

No matter how dull he was, he could still see that the regent and his wife were indeed targeting Marquis Zhongyong without even trying to cover it up, and the reason they were targeting him was Princess Zhaohua?

But what is the relationship between Princess Zhaohua and the Yong Kingdom?

"Prince Regent." Mr. Ji stood up and held his hands in greeting, "We are here to ask for help sincerely. We will do our best to meet any conditions Yong Guo wants. However, I really don't understand. Has Zhongyong Hou ever offended him?" The regent or the princess? Or have you offended the eldest princess? "

Ji Yucang's eyes were cold and stern: "Since the conditions are up to us, why are you so annoying? Do you want to compete?"

Han Xun put down his wine cup, stood up and left the table calmly, and bowed to the Regent and his wife: "In this case, I would rather obey your orders than be respectful, but as a man, it is really unfair for me to fight against the princess--"

Suddenly, a sound of breaking wind broke through the air.

Han Xun realized the danger, raised his head unexpectedly, and quickly dodged to the left, but it was still a step too late, and a kick hit him hard in the heart--

Bang!

Han Xun's strong body flew up suddenly, and fell out like a kite with a broken string, and fell heavily to the ground with a "bang".

The whole hall was stunned.

The air seemed to stop flowing at this moment.

The civil and military ministers of Yong State on the left and the civil and military envoys of Nanzhao on the right, nearly a hundred people stared at the scene in disbelief.
