Chapter 229 Leave the Gunpowder

Dare to say that he is a coward, Yan Ming raised the curtain of the carriage angrily.

"Young Lord, who is most favored by the emperor in the Chu Kingdom, really lives up to his reputation!"

It's a pity that the emperor of Chu is just a puppet, and the Empress Dowager Qi is the real person at the helm.

Seeing the expression on Yan Ming's face, Meng Changfeng smiled.

"Of course, since I can be favored by the emperor, it means that my methods are not ordinary. If the king doesn't want Pu Jing Kingdom to be turned into ruins, then let the humble minister leave here as soon as possible."

The Empress Dowager Qi should still have gunpowder, of course this is just a guess in his mind.

After a while, Yan Ming got out of the carriage, and he walked up to Meng Changfeng step by step, their eyes meeting each other in the air.

The soldiers standing behind Yan Ming were also very vigilant, some of them were still about to move.

"Meng Changfeng, your real purpose may not be as simple as making me pay taxes, is it?"

Of course, if it was really that simple, he would not have come to Pu Jinguo.

"Then what does your majesty think is the purpose of this humble minister?"

Yan Ming's smile was half a smile, he moved his nose.

Seeing his actions, Meng Changfeng became nervous. Could it be that Yan Ming really knew that he had brought gunpowder?

"Why did your majesty do such a thing? I really haven't bathed in the past few days, and it's normal to have a smell on my body."

The air was stagnant, Yan Ming's expression became much more indifferent, and he silently took a step back.

"I just feel that the smell around here is a bit strange. Could it be that envoy Meng didn't smell it?"

So much gunpowder is soaked in water, how could it be tasteless?

"I didn't smell it. By the way, I have caught a cold these few days, and my nose is not very good. Please don't blame me, Your Majesty."

Hearing the words "infected with wind and cold", the soldiers standing behind Yan Ming immediately took a step forward, blocking Meng Changfeng's view.

"You are so bold, why didn't you tell about your illness earlier, if the king is ill, we will definitely not let you go."

There was still vigilance in their eyes.

Meng Changfeng took a deep breath: "Just kidding, don't be so nervous, but I want to know what the purpose of Wang's visit last time was, maybe he wanted to execute the humble minister."

If he really executed Meng Changfeng, the Empress Dowager Qi would use this excuse to send someone to attack Pu Jinguo in a few days, and he would not hand over the opportunity to her.

Yan Ming shook his head: "Meng Envoy was joking, how could he kill you like this, anyway, you are also from Chu State, even if I want to kill you, I will send someone to send the Empress Dowager Qi first." letter."

Why not send a letter to the emperor?Meng Changfeng's eyes darkened a lot.

"Do you know that I am from Empress Dowager Qi?"

No matter which dynasty or country it is, the emperor is more noble than the queen mother, of course, Chu is an exception.

For Yan Ming to say this, it means that he already knows the situation in the court of Chu State.

"Isn't this something that everyone knows? By the way, Envoy Meng, are you planning to leave here now?"

Hearing that he was asking knowingly, Meng Changfeng didn't even bother to answer, so he kept silent.

After waiting for a long time for an answer, Yan Ming was not angry.

"You can leave if you want, but you have to meet one of my requirements."

Words are affirmative, and you have to agree if you don’t agree.

Meng Changfeng clenched his fists, he was finally willing to look back at Yan Ming.

"any request?"

Wouldn't it be to ask him to go up the mountain of swords and down into the sea of ​​fire, or let him instigate rebellion.

"Leave the gunpowder."

How is this possible?Without even thinking about it, Meng Changfeng directly refused.

"The gunpowder was given to me by the queen mother. Even if it has been soaked in water, I have to take the gunpowder back to the original owner. So sorry, my lord, I can't meet your request, otherwise Would you like to change it?"

It was already found that he was carrying gunpowder. It seemed that there was an inner ghost around him, so Meng Changfeng smiled self-deprecatingly.

"Your Majesty is really capable. He was able to quietly place eyeliner beside the humble minister."

The message flashed across the eyes of Bai Yan standing behind him, and this touch of emotion was also captured by Yan Ming, and he glanced at Bai Yan with a half-smile.

"I didn't put eyeliner around you. You are too ostentatious. Besides, five hundred loads of gunpowder is not a small amount. The moment you stepped into the Pujing Kingdom, I already began to suspect you."

He was simply talking nonsense with his eyes open. If Yan Ming hadn't planted eyeliner by his side, how could he know about gunpowder?Meng Changfeng took a deep breath.

"Can you change your request? Gunpowder really cannot be left behind."

The temperature dropped suddenly, the smile on Yan Ming's face was gone, and the coercion emanating from his body made people shudder.

"No, you can only choose to agree. If you don't agree, I can only kill you first, and then take away the gunpowder."

"You can't be so cruel. I'm an envoy of Chu State, and I'm still the young prince of Chu State. Do you want Empress Dowager Qi to have a reason to declare war on Pu Jin State?"

Meng Changfeng had a showdown, he didn't want to pretend anymore, he had to admit that Yan Ming was a formidable enemy.

"It doesn't matter, isn't it just fighting? People in Pu Jinguo are naturally warlike."

This is indeed true, and some soldiers have already started rubbing their hands.

"That's right, Your Majesty, why don't you kill them first, Chu is already suffering from internal and external troubles, and they can't beat us at all."

The emperor is an idiot, and the Empress Dowager Qi is full of ambitions. She only cares about fighting for power, and doesn't care about the life and death of the people at all.

They really don't know, if the Empress Dowager Qi and the emperor fall, who can be the new emperor of Chu?

Their every word made Meng Changfeng feel like facing a cold river.

It turned out that Yan Ming was really not joking, and the last bit of luck in his heart was gone.

I don't know how long it took, the sun had already set in the mountains, Meng Changfeng raised his head, his face was still full of vicissitudes.

"Okay, I promise you, I can keep the gunpowder, but you have to let us return to Chu State safely."

They might meet assassins and robbers on the road, anyway, gunpowder doesn't belong to him anymore, so it's better to take this opportunity to ask Yan Ming.

Yan Ming narrowed his eyes.

"You are not qualified to put conditions on me."

"Then you just kill me. Anyway, after returning to Chu, I will be severely tortured."

Empress Dowager Qi's methods of torturing people are top-notch. Just thinking about it, panic grew in his heart.

……

When sitting in the carriage, Meng Changfeng was still unwilling. He really didn't want to leave the gunpowder to Yan Ming. He always felt that Yan Ming was plotting a very big conspiracy.

"Master, do we really want to leave the gunpowder to Yan Ming?"
