Mind reading, the emperor saw my fist hard

Chapter 318: Sowing discord and adding fuel to the fire

To the house,

"Your Majesty, I have fulfilled my mission. This is General Xie's letter of surrender. There is still war in the border town. When the border town is more stable, General Xie will come in person to express his gratitude."

"Good! Good! Good! Gu Qing is indeed my right-hand man and important minister. He brought me the Xie family army, a battle-hardened army, without spending a single soldier."

Emperor Xuan laughed heartily.

But the Dai Viet delegation that was called in for no apparent reason was not so good.

The head of the Dai Viet envoy: Where am I? What am I doing! How come the Xie family army surrendered? Everything outside was turned upside down, but I didn't receive any news at all.

General Xie was confused: My father rebelled, how come I didn’t know about it?

Emperor Xuan was not going to let the poor leader of the Dai Viet envoy go, and said to General Xie with a smile: "General Xie, your father sent your mother and grandmother here, you can go and settle them after the court is dismissed."

"Oh~~"

General Xie agreed to that statement like a wandering soul.

The next moment, a slap landed on General Xie's head. General Xie covered his head and said angrily: "Who dares to hit me..."

Then, after meeting the angry gaze of the head of the Dai Viet envoy, he was unable to utter the following words.

He feels guilty.

The head of the Dai Viet envoy was so angry after being confused that he didn't even care about the emperor of Daqian who was sitting above him.

"Okay! I was wondering how you got into the delegation. Are you here specifically to pass on a message to the Emperor of Daqian and your father?"

"How dare you flirt with the princess who is preparing for marriage? What do you want to do? Do you want to get in the way of both sides?"

The head of the Dai Viet delegation attacked people in a fit of rage. As a young general, Xie Chengwu could certainly beat the head of the Dai Viet delegation, but the young man was not as shameless as the old foxes.

He can only be beaten passively.

The officials around pretended to block it, but they just moved their mouths without moving their hands.

"Oh, Lord Jiang, how can you hit General Xie? It's not easy for General Xie. He is so young but has to shoulder such an important responsibility."

This sentence further confirmed that General Xie sneaked into the delegation in order to deliver a message to his father and the Emperor of Daqian.

Lord Jiang from the Dai Viet delegation beat people even more fiercely.

"Young man Mu Ai, is it normal for Princess Lingyue to like General Xie?"

"Besides, there is no problem for Princess Lingyue to marry General Xie. General Xie will be a member of our Daqian in the future. If the princess marries him, it will be regarded as a marriage between Daqian and Dayue. Lord Jiang should not be angry."

·······

With these people adding fuel to the fire, the fight between the two people in the center of the court became more intense.

[Wow! I said that those who can become high-ranking officials are not good people, they are all old foxes, and they are really ruthless. ]

[Lord Jiang from the Dai Viet delegation hinted that the Xie family wanted to have their cake and eat it too, sowing discord. The officials from Daqian fanned the flames, exacerbating the conflict between the Xie family and Dai Viet, and completely severing the relationship between the Xie family and Dai Viet.]

[If I didn't have the system, I would simply think they just wanted to watch the fun. ]

hey~~

The civil and military officials looked back in amazement. How could Lord Xu say that? This is the basic quality of being an official.

Also, when was Lord Xu released? Wasn’t he under house arrest? They didn’t notice it.

Emperor Xuan on the dragon throne raised the corner of his lips. How could he miss Xu Jinyu at this time? If the Xie family was pretending to surrender, Daqian would suffer a great loss.

But it’s different with Xu Jinyu. With just Xu Jinyu, Daqian will know clearly whether the Xie family is sincere in surrendering.

[Aiya! Why didn't Xie Chengwu fight back? Your father was also forced to do it. It was the emperor of Dai Viet who was not a human being. As soon as someone impeached General Xie, the emperor put Xie's family under house arrest. ]

The Minister of Revenue rolled his eyes and kicked the person in front of him. The person immediately understood what the Minister meant.

Rushed to the two people who were fighting, pretending to stop them from fighting.

"Master Jiang, please stop fighting. I have received news from Daqian that General Xie has no choice but to rebel. The emperor of your Dayue has placed the entire Xie family under house arrest. If General Xie says one wrong word, your emperor will exterminate the entire Xie family."

"What! My whole family is under house arrest." Xie Chengwu was anxious.

I thought of my elderly grandmother, my mother who has to take medicine all year round, and my younger brothers and sisters.

[What's house arrest? That Prince Qing was planning to make things fait accompli with the young lady of the Xie family and force the Xie family to side with him. If it weren't for the people of Daqian who rescued the Xie family, who knows what would have happened to the Xie family.]

The head of the Ministry of Revenue's eyes lit up. This Da Yue people are really powerful.

"Not only that, General Xie, that Prince Qing wants to make it a done deal with your sisters! Tsk tsk tsk tsk..."

General Xie clenched his fists, "Prince Qing! That bastard!"

It seems that I didn't hit him lightly last time.

As for his third sister, he didn't know what had happened to her. He pushed Lord Jiang aside, grabbed the head of the Ministry of Revenue by the shoulder and asked anxiously, "Do you know what happened to my third sister?"

"Don't worry! Don't worry! Your sister has been rescued and everything is safe. She is living in the border town now." The head of the Ministry of Revenue comforted Xie Chengwu.

Then he looked at Xu Jinyu. The attempt to sow discord was only halfway through and he urgently needed Lord Xu's support.

[Oh my! The Emperor of Dai Viet is really a bad person. He asked his favorite concubine's brother to take over the Xie family army. He also wanted to see if the favorite concubine's brother is suitable for this job. ]

[He was hung on the city wall by the Xie family that day.]

Director of the Ministry of Revenue: Lord Xu is as awesome as ever.

"Also, General Xie, do you know the favorite concubine of your Dai Viet Emperor?"

Xie Chengwu's face was icy cold: "I know! How could I not know? Concubine Rou's useless brother, his specialties are eating, drinking, gambling, and flirting with women. If he didn't have a favorite sister, he would have died countless times."

The head of the Ministry of Revenue narrowed his eyes and said, "The Emperor of Dai Viet sent the brother of this favorite concubine to take over your Xie family army."

"He looks down on the Xie family army. What does he think of the Xie family army? A loser dares to think he can be in charge of the Xie family army." The veins on Xie Chengwu's fists bulged.

No wonder his father chose to join Daqian. If he didn't, he would have no way to survive.

Faced with the furious General Xie, the head of the Ministry of Revenue smiled and retired.

Lord Jiang from the Dai Viet delegation still did not give up and wanted to add fuel to the fire: "Xie Chengwu, His Majesty has always been forgiving. As long as your father is willing to return to Beijing, your Xie family will definitely be safe."

"Ah!"

Xie Chengwu sneered, you are kidding, what forgiveness? The emperor is so stingy, forgiveness, you can only fool fools.

“It’s not your family that’s under house arrest.”

"Xie Chengwu!" Lord Jiang shouted angrily.

"Boom!"

Xie Chengwu punched Lord Jiang on the head.

Lord Jiang rolled his eyes and fainted.

"I would also like to trouble General Xie to send Lord Jiang back to the Honglu Temple." The head of the Ministry of Revenue who was trying to sow discord said with a smile.

[Hey, this master is really good at sowing discord, it seems he is an expert. ]
