The middle-aged man turned around and left with a laugh, and the others walked out of the front room. Tokai Neptune was stunned on the spot, not sure, the tent was covered with curtains, and when he got distracted, he couldn't even tell where the door was.

Soon, another man walked in, wearing a narrow-sleeved robe, a pointed hat, and a beard on his lips. He looked like a Chu man. As soon as he came in, he first cut out a few candles, leaving only three to maintain the lighting.

"The tent is full of flammable things, so you must be careful." The man approached Tokai Neptune and looked up at him.

"Are you a Chu?" Donghai King frowned.

"What are the Chu people?" the man asked back and laughed, "Under the Chu people, the ones ruled by the emperor, were the Chu people. I was born in the Western Regions and grew up in a more western country. I could speak multiple languages ​​and do business with princes and nobles. No one could be my master. Only Zheng Emperor was the exception. He allowed me to see what is truly powerful, so I volunteered to be a slave and work for Zheng Emperor. By the way, I have a name for Chu, Qiu Hong."

King Tokai smiled and said, "You don't need to explain to me the reason for being a slave. Your appearance and outfit have already explained everything."

Qiu Hong was not angry, "In the years I have seen the arrogance of countless people, and also witnessed the same many defeats and begging."

"I'm here to negotiate with the gods and ghosts." King Donghai said coldly.

"The name you mentioned was called by the Huns, so it's better not to say it again."

"'The best' is often a luxury. For example, your country thinks that it has entered the territory of Great Chu, but it doesn't know that the rear is in danger and it's gone home." King Donghai was eager to find out what the nobles were laughing at.

Qiu Hong said oh, "No wonder everyone is laughing. It turns out that it is for this." He walked to a couch and sat on it, but did not invite King Donghai to sit down.

"The god and ghost great Shanyu asked a slave to negotiate for him?"

"I'm not here to negotiate." Qiu Hong said calmly, pausing for a moment, "I'm here to see how sincere the Chu envoy is, and then make suggestions to the emperor."

"The Great Chu is very sincere and can ignore the rude invasion of your country. As long as you withdraw from the Chu territory, the Great Chu will also recall all the Chu troops in your country."

Qiu Hong laughed again, "You really don't forget this. It seems that you don't know it. No wonder, from this, all the paths are under our control, and the news cannot be transmitted to Chu."

"I don't know what?" King Toshiro was worried, but his face remained silent.

"You have a general named Deng Cui who entered our country with a few people. At the beginning, they won a few small victories, but the entire army was wiped out in Shenye City."

The face of the Dong Shaowang changed slightly.

Qiu Hong continued: "Your country once sent an envoy named Han Xi, who claimed to be a royal relative."

"He is indeed a son of the royal family." The King of Donghai vaguely remembered that the emperor sent an envoy a few years ago, probably named Han Xi.

"He has been in Shenye City for a long time and was killed together this time. The emperor has already sent an order that all those who travel to the west of the Chu people will be killed without any regard for it. So look, I am not a Chu person, but I just inherited a face from my ancestors."

"You are indeed not a Chu person, and the real Chu person will not forget your ancestors."

"Haha. You still have a army, starting from the sea, and the general also claims to be a royal relative, saying that he is the emperor's uncle."

Tokai Neptune was stunned, "Who are you talking about?"

"It seems that the news of Chu State is not well-known. Maybe that person is lying, but he does claim to be the emperor's uncle. He seized an island in Java and proclaimed himself emperor, and did not plan to leave again. Did the countries on the sea not inform Chu State of news? It's strange that we received it very early."

Qiu Hong looked at King Donghai with a smile.

King Donghai became more and more confused. If he said that Huang Pugong led a group of pirates to become king, he believed it, but it was beyond his expectations to call himself the emperor's uncle and become emperor.

"Of course, you can choose not to believe it. It doesn't matter. I just tell you that you can't use these two Chu troops to negotiate with us."

King Donghai was speechless for a while. Regardless of the authenticity of the news, the emperor's purpose of using these two messages to scare the enemy was not achieved.

But he didn't give up, and suddenly burst into laughter and quietly observed the other party's reaction. Seeing Qiu Hong slightly impatient, he said, "You can also choose to believe it. I'm just here to tell the gods and ghosts that this is his last chance to return home safely."

Qiu Hong put away his smile and stood up and left.

Soon two slaves came in from the other direction and signaled King Donghai to follow them out.

King Donghai wanted to rush into the depths of the tent or stand here and shout a few times, but he didn't dare to follow the slave back to his original residence honestly, feeling panic, if what Qiu Hong said was true...

"Your Majesty will definitely not be as panicked as me." King Donghai said to himself, comforting himself a little, "I am not here to argue the truth about the news, but to make the enemy hesitate."

King Donghai was very dissatisfied with his reaction just now and made up his mind that he must be confident when he has the chance to see Qiu Hong.

The servant brought wine and meat. The King of Donghai was really hungry, but he had no appetite. "What? I don't have to see the gods and ghosts on an empty stomach?"

The servant probably couldn't understand Chu Yu, so he didn't even raise his head, put down his food and turned around and left.

King Donghai ate for a while, and suddenly thought that this might be a slaughtered meal, and he was about to die here and lose his appetite again.

The servant came in and took away Canyao. King Donghai sat on the bed in a daze, trying to talk to Zhao Ruosu, but there were guards guarding him at the door and he was not allowed to go out.

King Donghai kept encouraging himself, but as soon as he stopped and thought about it, he felt that it was completely impossible. The gods, ghosts, and the Great Shanyu must keep in touch with the extreme West. The news is much smoother than that of the Great Chu. How could he be easily deceived?

The next morning, King Donghai was called out again. This time there was no soft sedan chair. The four guards took him to an open space like escorting him. Here, when he saw Zhao Ruosu and others, he was shocked and thought that the Chu envoy was going to be executed.

"The two countries are fighting and not killing the envoys. It seems that the gods and ghosts and great samurai do not understand this principle." King Donghai shouted to Zhao Ruosu.

Zhao Ruosu didn't say anything, his hands were put together in his sleeves, as if he was enjoying the scenery.

King Donghai admired him very much, and shut his mouth and observed for a while. He found that something was wrong. This was not a execution ground. The soldiers around him were transferred in batches, as if they were rushing to the battlefield.

Not long after, someone brought Chu's mount.

King Donghai breathed a little relieved and became nervous soon. Taking advantage of the time of getting on the horse, he said to Zhao Ruosu beside him: "There is a war going to start? What should we do?"

"Take a role when you see the opportunity." Zhao Ruosu still has these four words.

"What opportunity did you see?" Donghai King was a little angry, "I can't see the gods and ghosts, I only saw a cousin and a slave."

Zhao Ruosu nodded, jumped onto the horse, said nothing, and was still straight.

King Donghai also got on the horse, thinking that he had to make his own decision.

The Chu envoy followed the army southward, and the enemy was out of sight. The King of Donghai wanted to find someone to talk to. There were many soldiers around him, but no one could speak Chu language. He had to say to Zhao Ruosu, who was heading side by side: "Is this going to attack the capital or Hangu Pass?"

"Beijing."

"Hey, have you heard of the news?"

Zhao Ruosu shook his head, "The God and Ghost Shanyu are strong and unyielding, and they advance but not retreat. The last time the enemy failed to capture the capital, and was frightened by His Majesty and thousands of soldiers. He must be very dissatisfied, so he must attack the capital to stabilize the morale of the army."

King Donghai thought it made sense, "Guess again, will the gods and ghosts meet me in the end?"

"If the capital is broken, he will take advantage of his remaining power and may meet the King of East China Sea. If the capital is not broken - it will be hard to say that people like him can do anything in anger."

King Donghai didn't expect that his fate would be associated with the survival of the capital, "Then... will the capital be broken?"

"I only guess people, not things."

King Donghai is worried about gains and losses. He hopes that the capital can be saved and that he can leave alive. It is not so important to pass on the message.

The army walked for a day and camped behind a mountain. There were no sight of the capital. There were even more enemy soldiers. At first glance, it looked like an endless ocean.

The Chu envoy was scattered into various tents again, and the King of East China still had one, but there was no charcoal and other warmth. After nightfall, the cold wind was howling outside and the tent was so cold that people couldn't sleep. The King of East China trembled all night and cursed in his heart that the enemy could be frozen to death.

The next morning, the Chu envoy was taken out again. This time, he rode his horse for only one hour and stopped on a high ground, and could see the capital from afar.

A huge platform was also built on the high ground, decorated in extremely gorgeous ways, with a large number of soldiers surrounding it. The Chu envoy stood under the platform, with soldiers monitoring it, and no one was allowed to look up. In fact, even if he looked up, he could not see anything.

"The gods and ghosts are on it." Donghai Wang whispered.

Zhao Ruosu nodded and looked at the capital like a statue.

Qiu Hong came at some point, stood behind Chu Envoy and suddenly spoke, "You can go home today."

Zhao Ruosu did not move, Donghai King turned around and looked at Qiu Hong coldly, "But you are giving up the opportunity to go home."

"The world is home, and the emperor is home wherever he goes. If you are lucky, you will be able to see the emperor in the palace tonight. It is said that the Chu Palace is very gorgeous, and I have always wanted to see it with my own eyes."

King Donghai turned around, angry, but had nothing to say.

A team of soldiers escorted a man to the front of the platform. King Donghai was surprised to see that the person being taken was actually the cousin of the god and ghost Shanyu.

My cousin knelt softly on the ground, trembling, as if crying.

Qiu Hong whispered: "He was too brave to command the siege before. He was too brave to attack when facing thousands of Chu troops. He siege the city for a month without any progress. Such a person will not be left behind."

There was a gong sound on the platform, and the soldiers retreated, leaving only their cousin kneeling there. He shouted in strange words, as if he was begging, and as if he was praying to the gods.

An arrow shot from the high platform, hitting the top of my cousin's head, followed by more arrows. When my cousin fell to the ground, he became a hedgehog.

The sound of the gong sounded again, and the enemy army made a shouting sound, passing out layer by layer, getting farther and farther away, and more and more people joined, and the sound did not weaken.

In the distance, strange-style siege weapons began to fire huge stone bombs, and teams of soldiers carried the ladder towards the city wall like ants.

"Either climb up the city or die under the city. This is the order they received." Qiu Hong sighed softly, "I am even more sorry for this legendary capital of Chu. It will be beyond recognition after today."
