Chapter 106: Limited patience
Upon hearing this, Shen Yuan immediately saluted respectfully.
"Your Majesty is wise!"
"Your Majesty has a unique insight, and I admire you!"
Qianrou coughed slightly.
"It's exactly what I expected, Xiangfu, am I right?"
"Sure enough, as your Majesty said, the older this person is, the more bone marrow he has! It seems that Wei Chen guessed it wrong. Your Majesty is really unique in his foresight, which Wei Chen can't match!"
With Shen Yuan taking the lead, all civil and military officials quickly responded.
"Your Majesty is wise, powerful, and has true knowledge and insights. I admire you all!"
"I admire you!"
There were endless compliments, and Empress Qianrou was overjoyed and quite satisfied. The smile on his small face was hard to hide.
Immediately, Shen Yuan turned around and ordered to the two young eunuchs.
"You two will preserve this bone marrow with the best cold jade. When the time comes, I will send an envoy to Xuerou Xin so that she can take a good look at her sister's bone marrow."
"Yes!"
The two eunuchs hurriedly left.
This time it was bone marrow. If Dongyi still refused to cede the land, then it would be her life next time!
If you don't teach Xuerou a lesson, do you really think it's better to be patient?
After there were no other matters, Qianrou also announced her resignation.
After retiring from the court, Shen Yuan personally selected envoys and prepared to give this great gift to the Dongyi royal family.
Of course, the reason why he wanted to personally select the envoys was because he knew that people are afraid of death.
Envoys are no exception.
Although even if the two countries were at war, there would always be times when he would get angry, especially what Shen Yuan wanted to say to Xuerou Xin. Shen Yuan did not think she could remain calm after hearing it.
Shen Yuan felt that if the envoy went there, he would never truthfully say what he wanted to express, but would instead find some nice words to say in the song.
This was not the result Shen Yuan wanted to see, so he had to personally select the envoys and control their souls with Thousand Phantom Spirit Pupils, so that the envoys could speak their minds without changing a word in front of the Dongyi Royal Family.
……
ten days later.
The Northern Qi envoy came to Dongyi with the "gift" prepared by Shen Yuan.
The Dongyi royal family received him.
Although she was impatient to find out some information about her sister from the mouth of the Northern Qi envoy, Xuerou's heart was the empress, and she had to maintain the emperor's pressure. No matter what she did, she couldn't be hasty.
"Your Majesty, I am going to Dongyi this time, and I have a small gift prepared by the Prime Minister."
Immediately, the envoy presented the gift to the eunuch, who respectfully took the gift box and presented it to Xue Rouxin.
"Thank you, Prime Minister, for helping me. What is this for?"
"Your Majesty will know it at a glance."
Xue Rouxin frowned slightly, and the next moment she opened the gift box and saw two top-quality cold jade bottles inside.
Taking out the cold jade bottle and unscrewing the cap, Xue Rouxin saw the well-preserved bone marrow inside!
"!"
Xuerou endured the discomfort and immediately threw the jade bottle down angrily!
"That's too much! How dare you give me bone marrow?! Shen Yuan is so bold!"
"This is not ordinary bone marrow, this is the bone marrow of your sister, Empress Rouxin!"
Xue Rouxin's pupils suddenly shrank, and her tone was solemn as she spoke every word.
"What did you say?"
"This is Xue Jianyao's bone marrow, and there is another bottle, which is the marrow of Gu Yun. The Prime Minister was afraid that the bone marrow would change due to the long journey, so he stored it in the best cold jade bottle. I believe you, Empress Rouxin, should be deeply moved by this painstaking effort. !”
Xue Rou pointed her heart at the envoy, and smiled in anger.
"Good good."
"You dare to talk to me like this, very good, very good!"
The envoy shrugged.
"This is all caused by Empress Rouxin's unwillingness to cede the three counties of Hengzhou. The Prime Minister asked me to tell you that his patience is limited. Today is the bone marrow, and in a few days, it will be the head."
"I will send your head to Shen Yuan first!" I chop it up completely!!”
Immediately, a row of guards rushed forward to capture the envoy.
"Hahaha!" The envoy was not afraid at all, "How dare you touch me!?"
"The Prime Minister said that if I cannot return to Northern Qi safely, then he will take off Xue Jianyao's clothes and hang them outside the capital! At that time, whether it is a street vendor or a beggar on the alley, they will taste it. Enjoy this Princess Dongyi!"
"My hands and feet are bound, my clothes are taken off and she is left hanging, and I can do whatever I can to help her, until she dies!"
"I don't think I need to explain to Empress Rouxin how we, the Prime Minister, do things, right? Your Majesty, the Prime Minister, always does what he says."
Xuerou was furious, Shen Yuan's methods were simply shocking!
If Jian Yao was really treated like that...
I don’t dare to imagine it, Xue Rouxin doesn’t even dare to imagine it!
Maybe she was wrong from the beginning. From the beginning, she shouldn't have listened to Ye Fei's words and wanted to show off to Northern Qi.
Now, Ye Fei's reputation has been ruined, and Gu Yun and Xue Jianyao have their bones and marrow extracted.
You may even face more humiliating treatment.
But she is the empress, she cannot give in.
"If Shen Yuan really dares to do that, then Dongyi and Northern Qi will fight to the death!"
The envoy was not afraid at all.
"The Prime Minister has long sent a letter to the Ten Thousand Monsters Kingdom. In my opinion, the possibility of forming an alliance is very high. After all, Ye Fei insulted the Princess of the Ten Thousand Monsters Kingdom. How can the Ten Thousand Monsters Kingdom just let it go?"
"At that time, we, the Heavenly Soldiers of Northern Qi, and the army of Ten Thousand Monsters Kingdom will be added to the army. I am also very curious, how will the Rouxin Empress respond?"
Xuerou wanted to cut the envoy in front of her into pieces with a thousand knives, but she couldn't do that.
Once he does this, Shen Yuan will prove to her that he is not a person who likes to joke.
But do what you say.
If Princess Dongyi is humiliated like this, the face of the Dongyi royal family will be completely wiped out!
And just as Shen Yuan expected, Xue Rouxin didn't want to fight.
Once the war really starts, she will have to face not only Northern Qi, but also the Ten Thousand Monsters Kingdom!
She can't afford it! Dongyi needs development, Dongyi needs stability.
Moreover, according to previous reports, the demon tribes of the Ten Thousand Monster Kingdom at the Dongyi border are ready to move, and they do seem to have the intention to move eastwards.
But, can it really be reduced to the point of ceding territory and replacing people to seek peace?
Xuerou hates it!
Isn't it a great shame and humiliation for Dongyi to cede territory?
Since she ascended the throne, she has been thinking about the four Qingyan states that were annexed by Northern Qi after the Demon Slayer Battle.
Now that the four states of Qingyan have not been recaptured, the three counties of Hengzhou must be ceded!
At this moment, she was filled with resentment and resentment, but she couldn't help but ignore the envoy in front of her.
"Let me consider the matter of ceding the land for some more time. The envoy should go down and rest first..."
After a long silence, Xuerou finally suppressed her anger and resentment and spoke these words with extremely suppressed emotions.
The envoy bowed and retired.
"Thank you, Your Majesty, I will take my leave."
"However, I still want to kindly remind His Majesty."
"Your Majesty, Prime Minister, your patience is limited..."
