The King of Donghai silently prayed that the gods and ghosts could refuse peace talks, but the progress of the situation was not satisfactory. The two sides communicated back and forth for several days, and the enemy actually agreed to receive the envoy of the Great Chu.

King Donghai had no choice but to start thinking about how to deliver messages. This is not an easy task. First of all, the language is not clear. Three interpreters need to cooperate to cooperate so that both parties can understand each other.

Before leaving, Donghai King asked Zhao Ruosu: "Do you have any plans?"

Zhao Ruosu sighed heavily, "Play according to the opportunity."

This was the same as if he hadn't said it. King Donghai had to think of his own. As soon as he got on the horse, Cui Teng hurriedly ran out and said to King Donghai: "Your Majesty said he would not see him off. I wish you a smooth journey. It doesn't matter whether you can come back. The key is to complete the tasks assigned by Your Majesty."

"Is this what Your Majesty said?" King Donghai looked angry.

Cui Teng smiled and said, "Your Majesty said he would not see him off. I said the rest. I really envy you. I have the opportunity to be loyal to Your Majesty."

"Then go with me." Donghai Wang said coldly.

Cui Teng shook his head repeatedly, "Haha, I am not as capable as you, my status as you are not as good as you, my eloquence as you are, and my luck is not as good as you, so I will not cause trouble with you. Remember, completing tasks is preferred. Even if you cannot scare the enemy, you must try to delay for a few more days so that enough troops can be collected here."

King Donghai left, Cui Teng shouted behind him: "King King Donghai, Da Chu needs a loyal minister like you!"

A team of more than ten people rushed out of Hangu Pass, and were escorted by generals from various places, passing through one barrier after another. Every time, King Donghai passed, he thought, how long could this pass last? The soldiers guarding the pass were still alive now, and they would be buried in the snow in the future. Do these people know in their hearts? Are they not afraid?

Donghai Neptune almost asked.

That night, the group moved into a small military camp. King Donghai invited Zhao Ruosu to have a meal together and drank a few cups of hot wine to drive away the cold. King Donghai asked, "Why did you sigh when you set off this morning?"

Zhao Ruosu was not very fond of talking, and Donghai King smiled and said, "You are 'sin' and 'I am 'nine-death and death'. What else can I say? I dare not say?"

Zhao Ruosu finally spoke, "I sigh that Your Majesty still likes to use strange tricks and false tricks, hoping to scare the enemy with two true and false news."

Donghai Neptune slapped her thigh, "Yes, I think this move is difficult to work."

Zhao Ruosu glanced at Donghai King, "Don't you believe this trick is useful?"

"Ah? Didn't you mean that too?"

Zhao Ruosu shook his head, "I just said this was a strange move, a false move, but I didn't say it wouldn't work. On the contrary, I think this move is likely to anger the enemy chief. As long as the Chu army can block the initial anger, these two messages will take effect, causing the enemy's morale to plummet and even split."

"But you still sigh?"

"I sigh that after this recruitment takes effect, Your Majesty prefers to use strangeness and emptiness. This is by no means an emperor's skill or a blessing for the Great Chu."

King Donghai blinked his eyes and was the opposite of Zhao Ruosu. He thought that any move could be used at this time, but he was only worried that this move would be useless.

"Why did Your Majesty send you with me?" King Donghai asked in confusion. He was the emperor's younger brother, the Grand Marshal of the Guards, and at least he had an extremely respectable position on the surface, but Zhao Ruosu was a idler who didn't even have a position to be punished.

"There must be one of the messengers who is not afraid of death." Zhao Ruosu said calmly.

King Donghai was stunned for a while, and drank the wine in his glass. He found that the wine was cold and murmured: "Your Majesty's methods are getting more and more ruthless. I finally understand why Your Majesty is often tolerant to those who offend. It is obvious that he wants to make the best use of the things and let us be loyal to death."

Zhao Ruosu nodded and praised: "This is the real emperor's technique. If Your Majesty insists on governing the country with this, the world will be peaceful."

Both of them agreed with the same facts, but their attitudes were completely opposite. King Donghai laughed and didn't want to argue about who was right or who was wrong.

The next morning, the messenger and his party accelerated the speed. The weather was cold and the East China Sea King was so cold that he burst into tears. But he still noticed one thing, "The Chu army was hoarding ice, which is a way to block the enemy in winter."

Zhao Ruosu nodded and said for a while: "The enemy has been reluctant to launch an attack. It must be that it is well prepared. How long can the ice blocks last?"

King Donghai said nothing, wondering how the emperor would appreciate such a weird person, and he never would have followed his words.

Three days later, the Chu army could no longer escort. From here, the King of Donghai and his party were led by the enemy.

"The distance is so short." King Donghai said to himself, feeling a little nervous.

The first batch of enemy troops were the Huns, and they kept changing them. The enemy soldiers were dressed in various styles, and the more they went back, the more gorgeous they became. Some people's armor was covered with gems, and the sun shone, making people dizzy.

The envoy walked around the capital and continued northward. The King of Donghai looked at it from a distance. The capital was still standing, but the city wall was damaged, covered with scars and burns, which was shocking.

"The capital will not be kept for long." King Donghai said in a low voice, glanced at Zhao Ruosu.

Since entering the enemy's sphere, Zhao Ruosu has become even less talkative, but his waist is getting straighter and straighter. Even if he rides on a horse for a whole day, he never bends down and shows fatigue.

King Tokai stood up too.

The Chu envoy was sent to a huge military camp more than a hundred miles away from the north of the capital. The King of Donghai was shocked. The number of enemy troops was too large. The camps were one by one, and they had to run for days and nights when galloping on horseback.

The Chu envoy was not received immediately, but was sent to a tent, and several noble people in strange clothes came, and used the translation to convey the rules of meeting the "Zheng Emperor" to them:

When kneeling, he put his hands on the ground, rushed up the palm of his hand, kissed the ground three times, and then touched the ground with his forehead. He should not raise his head without permission.

You should not speak without authorization if you ask or answer.

Every time I answer a question, I have to call myself "the world's master" and call myself "the slave of fear".

First, you have to take a shower and change your clothes. You only drink water and not eat for a day. Only after you have no odor on your body can you meet the "Zheng Emperor".

...

The enemy chief had many rules. After saying it, he took out a roll of paper, which clearly listed each rule in three languages, including Chu Yu.

The noble man withdrew, and the King of Donghai said to Zhao Ruosu with paper: "If we do everything, we will have no shame to go back to see His Majesty."

"Let's take one step at a time."

Zhao Ruosu was assigned to another tent and turned around to leave. King Donghai stepped forward to stop him, "Zhao Ruosu, what do you want to do? Tell me in advance that it's all here. I can't have any other ideas to show my ambitions by dying. Yes, I can do it, just let me be prepared."

Zhao Ruosu stared at Donghai King for a while and spit out a few words: "Then prepare."

King Donghai really wanted to kick it hard, but he barely held it back and replied: "Okay, go see the enemy chief, but don't kneel down?"

Zhao Ruosu nodded, "Don't kneel down."

When Zhao Ruosu left, Donghai King felt empty and tried not to think about anything.

Soon several servants brought a large bucket to the guests for bathing.

Taking a hot bath in the cold winter should be a very comfortable thing, but Donghai Wang couldn't get rid of the idea: this is not a bath, but a cleaning like washing clothes. After changing the water several times, different spices were added each time, some of which were quite pungent and gradually became fragrant.

The bath lasted for more than half a day, and except for drinking water, he did not give any food. Donghai King was tired and hungry, and was about to exhaustion. He lay in bed but couldn't sleep. He tossed and turned, thinking that he and the princess were not as good as a man or a woman, and he was really a failure.

After noon the next day, King Donghai was called out and rode in a strange-style soft sedan to meet the gods and ghosts.

"Where are the others?" asked the King of Donghai. He was the only one riding in the sedan chair, and Zhao Ruosu and others were gone.

The translation was not there, and the escort bowed his head and said no word.

King Donghai's face changed slightly. No matter what, Zhao Ruosu was a kind of supervision and a kind of spur. When he was not here, King Donghai felt even more unsure.

"Take ambitions through death." Donghai Wang whispered.

Almost an hour later, King Donghai was already trembling all over his body due to the cold. The sedan chair finally stopped in front of a huge tent. Several servants stepped forward and lifted the guest off the sedan chair and sent it to another sedan chair. This time the trip was relatively short and he was carried directly into the tent.

The tent was matted with more than one person, and the curtains were heavy, all under the control of the nobles of gorgeous clothes. King Donghai got off the sedan chair, stepped on the soft carpet, and walked forward step by step, his belly was empty, his legs were weak, and his heart was weak, but he could still stand up.

The eyes suddenly became clear, and at least thirty people turned their heads to look at the guests at the same time, including a man in gorgeous clothes and a woman in a veil but not shy.

King Donghai was ready to fight, his eyes swept over and soon fell on a middle-aged man. Among a group of high-necked, deep-necked aliens, this person looked more like a Chu or a Hun. No one was close to him, and his status should be the highest.

King Donghai was about to speak when he suddenly woke up that this man was not the gods and ghosts, and this room was not even the main hall, but the front room waiting to be summoned.

King Donghai found himself nervous, coughed, squeezed a smile on his face, and said loudly: "Can anyone speak Chu Yu?"

The middle-aged man came over and the others gave way.

"I will say a few words." The man said stiffly.

"What do you call me?"

"I am the cousin of the emperor, so you should call me 'Your Highness'."

"I am the younger brother of the Emperor of Great Chu, and you should also call me 'Your Highness'."

The man smiled, "It turns out that he is here to die."

The man's contempt made King Donghai lose his fear and said seriously: "I am here to send a letter to negotiate. The Emperor of Great Chu has something to say to the gods, ghosts, and great khan."

The man's face changed, "Pay attention to your words and send the dead. There are many ways to die. Do you want to try it one by one?"

Some words should have been said before seeing the gods and ghosts. But King Donghai couldn't help it. He was worried that the fighting spirit and spirit in his heart would be heard in a while, so he shouted: "I only know one way to die, which is to die unyieldingly. Please tell the gods and ghosts that the emperor of the Great Chu offered the conditions: If you withdraw from Chu immediately, the Great Chu will recall the two Chu troops that have already attacked your country."

"Two?"

"One of them set out from the Western Regions Huju City, and the other one attacked by sea a year ago. It has already landed at this time." Donghai King tried his best to show his confidence.

The man laughed and said a few words in other languages, and everyone in the tent laughed.

King Donghai felt nervous, and these two news was obviously not an accident for the enemy.
