System: [Hehe, the biggest mistake is that this young spy is the one who faked his death.]

The courtiers' pupils trembled: !!!

what? !

Disguised as his own bastard? !

When the court officials were surprised, Prime Minister Wang looked at Prime Minister Li thoughtfully and whispered, "Your idea."

Prime Minister Li paused and gave a fake smile: "You are too kind."

Prime Minister Wang: ...

Still not admitting it?! You have a criminal record.

Yuan Ruan's pupils trembled: [What?! These two spies are the same person? Didn't Chen Guo find out? ]

System: [I didn't notice it. Originally, Xia Country's disguise technology was very good. Later, with the addition of Tian Langjun, the disguise ability was ten blocks ahead of other countries. How did you notice it?]

Yuanruan's chubby face showed confusion: [Xia country is so short of spies? ]

System: [Xia Country has no shortage of spies. It should be said that they just want to create the feeling of "Wan Wan is like you". ]

Yuan Ruan was stunned for a moment: [Huh? A minister also needs a substitute? The risk is too great, is it necessary? ]

System: [High risk, but useful. The Emperor of Chen originally promoted the illegitimate son of an old friend because he missed his old minister. Since he saw the characteristics of his old friend in the son of his old friend, the Emperor of Chen has trusted the spy more and more. Anyway, your brother's operation not only won a victory for Daxia, but also caused a crack in the three-nation alliance headed by Chu. ]

Everyone:! ! !

Yuanruan showed an admiring expression: [Brother, you are awesome! Awesome!]

The system electronic seal applauded: [Yeah, awesome! Very cool! ]

The corners of the emperor's mouth curled up slightly.

After a while, Yuan Ruan sighed again: [Who came up with this "I stand for myself" trick? It's absurd yet a bit powerful, and it actually controlled the Emperor of Chen. ]

System: [Hahaha, this was also planned by your brother. But he didn't come up with this idea, it's because your brother has encountered the exact same routine before, and he has a deep understanding of whether it works or not.]

emperor:……

Courtiers: !!!

My ears perked up instantly! What do you mean, Your Majesty has also experienced Wan Wan Lei Qing? !

The Minister of Rites, who had stepped forward to ask the Chen envoy some questions, paused. He retreated in silence. After all, the person in front of him was a family member, so he was not in a hurry to negotiate. But this kind of royal gossip was worth a lot, so he couldn't be distracted.

Yuanruan's eyes lit up: [What is it?!]

System: [You still remember Prime Minister Li’s former son Bai Yueguang, right? He unfortunately passed away that year, and your brother was very sad. Prime Minister Li was also sad for a while, but he valued power and felt that the relationship between Bai Yueguang and your brother should not be wasted, so Prime Minister Li disguised his other son to look like Bai Yueguang, and then took a similar route to come to your brother.]

Yuan Ruan turned his head in disbelief and looked at Prime Minister Li: [Wa Qu, this guy is too fond of scheming. ]

Many court officials also turned to look at Prime Minister Li in shock.

Prime Minister Li felt uneasy and stole glances at the emperor.

Emperor: ...Close your eyes.

System: [Yes. Your brother was also shocked by the appearance of a substitute, and was in a trance for a while, but then he became furious. To be honest, if your brother hadn't remembered the old friendship of Brother Li who had died less than two months ago, I'm afraid you wouldn't have seen Prime Minister Li today. But because of this, your brother sent Prime Minister Li away to live in the wasteland for two years.]

Prime Minister Li was shocked: What?! He had always thought that it was because his eldest son was gone and the emperor no longer cared about his old friendship that he was sent out to suffer for two years, but he never expected that it was his own fault.

Yuan Ruan: [It's wrong! Prime Minister Li did not do this right. ]

System: [Aruan is right.]

Prime Minister Li's face turned even paler.

He now wanted to kneel down and beg the Imperial Master to stop talking, but he didn't dare. He could only look at the Emperor pleadingly with a thick face.

However, the emperor closed his eyes early and was completely unable to receive any signal from Prime Minister Li begging for mercy.

Yuan Ruan continued to sigh: [But then again, you are indeed my brother. With just a few tricks, you made a lot of money and three cities.]

System: [No, no, no, it's a large sum of money and five cities.]

Courtiers:? ? ?

Wait a minute, didn’t this spy just say he wanted to redeem two cities? ! Didn’t His Majesty agree to it? !

Yuan Ruan also asked: [Ah? Didn’t you just agree to return the city to Chen State? ]

System: [Yes! Ah Ruan, do you remember? Your brother got the map to Dayuezhi, so he planned to transfer some troops to Dayuezhi immediately. But in this way, the garrison troops of the five cities are insufficient. Your brother thinks that instead of letting the Xiongnu cause chaos, it is better to let Chen State take care of it first. When the army comes back, we can take everything back.]

Yuanruan was stunned: [6]

The generals' eyes lit up: Your Majesty, this is a good idea! Very good! Excellent!

The civil officials were thoughtful and some were eager to try.

In the entire hall, only the Minister of Rites and the Minister of Revenue had strange expressions. The Minister of Rites was thinking with a frown on his face, while the Minister of Revenue clenched his fists and gritted his teeth.

After a while, the Minister of Revenue took the initiative to find the Minister of Rites who was sighing softly, and whispered: "Sir, this is not appropriate! If we send troops again..." The national treasury is already in debt, and if it continues to burn, it will go bankrupt.

Before the Minister of Revenue could finish his words, the Minister of Rites took over.

"Yes, if we send troops again, we will have no legitimate reason!" The Minister of Rites turned his head and looked at the Minister of Revenue, his expression was very solemn, even worried, "When two countries go to war, we must occupy the high ground of public opinion. How can we go back on our word so quickly after we have already agreed on the terms? Minister of Revenue, you are well-informed, can you think of a better reason to justify the war?"

Minister of Revenue: ...Get lost.

At this time, Yuan Ruan said again: [If we have to mobilize troops again. Can the male mother come back before the New Year? ! ]

The system suddenly laughed: [Don't worry! Your brother is sending troops to secretly go to Dayuezhi, and the male mother is the commander-in-chief. Such a big goal must be returned to the capital of Xia State! When the time comes, pounce on him and bury your chest. ]

Yuanruan was a little embarrassed: [Tong'er, I'm grown up now. How can I dare to pounce on you?]

Everyone nodded repeatedly, eager to point fingers at the system.

System, can you understand something? Stop instigating our little imperial master!

The system said seriously: [Aruan, don't be scared! You are not even three years old yet, but she is a male mother. If you poke her, she will still bounce back. If you hold her, she will feel warm, secure and strong! Are you really not going to bury her? ]

Yuanruan thought for a moment and said honestly: [Bury.]

emperor:……

Courtiers:…

After that,

The system and Yuanruan will also reveal the words of the young envoy from Chen State word by word.

In other words, with Yuan Ruan's intelligence, the court officials were very clear about Chen's bottom line, and what benefits the spy could secretly bring to Daxia after agreeing to the young spy's conditions.

Because of this, the attitude of the court officials of the Xia Kingdom towards the envoys from Chen's spies became more and more friendly, and during the negotiations, they nodded in agreement without hesitation, and there was no discussion or wrangling in between.

This made Chen the spy envoy feel a little weird.

Did the Imperial Master reveal his mind?! Or was it some other reason?! After all, he couldn't hear his inner voice now, so his judgment was a little unstable.

After a moment, he secretly wrote down the names of several people with the friendliest attitudes, including the Vice Minister of War and the Vice Minister of Rites, and prepared to report them to the Emperor of Daxia after the court session, in order to be wary of these officials who might be pro-Chen.
