After rebirth, I married the emperor's uncle and overthrew my ex-husband's kingdom

Lu Lingye frowned. If he signed the document, it would be solid evidence. If people knew that he was colluding with foreign enemies in the future, he would be condemned by scholars and students even if he sat on the throne!

In extraordinary times, extraordinary measures are needed. This is just a temporary measure. However, he still plans to give it a try.

"Master Tuoba, let's forget about this written document. I will give you a token as proof."

The Tuoba envoy paused holding the brush, and a sneer rose from his lips, "Prince Rui, words are not enough. Although this thing is yours, if you insist on denying it, we can't do anything to you. It's better to sign a written agreement. What do you think?"

"My words are as good as gold. I will not go back on my words."

"You can't know a person's heart by looking at his face." Envoy Tuoba put down his wolf-hair brush, his expression suddenly turned cold, "If Prince Rui is not sincere in cooperating, then please leave!"

It was a verbal agreement, but it was a good thing he could say it.

She wants to be a whore, but also wants to be a virtuous woman. She has done things that are treasonous for personal gain, and is still afraid of leaving any evidence.

He sneered in his heart, how could he be threatened in the future if he didn't have any evidence?

Lu Lingye was actually just testing him. Since he didn't agree, he could only sign the contract.

It's just a borrowed knife. After all the people in the Zhenguo Mansion are wiped out, he will definitely find a way to destroy this contract!

He raised his lips and chuckled, "Since Master Tuoba doesn't believe me, then just sign the document. This way, Master Tuoba can explain to your king."

"Haha, Prince Rui is very righteous."

As he wished, the Tuoba envoy's face was immediately filled with smiles.

He picked up the pen and copied down all the conditions proposed by Lu Lingye. He couldn't wait to sign their king's name and stamp it with the royal seal on his body.

After everything was done, he made a gesture of invitation, "Prince Rui, please!"

Lu Lingye picked up the document and took a look at it. After confirming that there were no loopholes, he signed his name and stamped it with his own seal.

"Good good!"

Envoy Tuoba couldn't stop smiling as he held the signed document.

After he finished, he carefully folded the silk and put it in his arms, then looked at Lu Lingye with a smile, "Prince Rui, since the cooperation has been reached, when will you send your city defense map?"

"What city defense map?"

Lu Lingye frowned and his tone turned cold.

The Tuoba envoy chuckled, "Prince Rui, the Yueguan City is heavily guarded, and the Duke of Zhenguo is personally guarding it. You don't think we can break through the Yueguan City just by talking to him, do you?"

If it was so easy, why would they have been blocked outside the pass and trapped by the yellow sand for hundreds of years?

Lu Lingye pursed his lips, his expression gloomy.

The border city defense map is so important that it is not easy to get it. But without the city defense map, it is impossible for these barbarians to capture Yueguan City.

"I will find a way to deal with the city defense map. You should first complete the peace letter."

"Okay, I will go to Yueguan City again in a few days."

The Tuoba envoy responded with a smile.

He had not originally planned to go back like this. This year there was a drought, the cattle and sheep had no grass to grow, and the fresh water was dry. If he could not take some food back from the Great Zhou, who knows how many people would starve to death this year.

Even if this group did not exist, they would fight against the Great Zhou Dynasty at the risk of their lives.

After negotiating the terms, Lu Lingye put on a large black hood and a bronze mask, and quietly left Qinling Mountain while the night was still dark.

Lu Si and Lu San emerged from the darkness only after the sound of horse hooves disappeared.

The two men did not rush back to the city. Instead, they dressed in black, put on black scarves, and quietly went to the tent of Tuoba envoy.

When the person inside heard snoring, the two men each slashed the throat of the guard in front of the tent with a knife.

After dragging the body into the tent, they took out a tinder and immediately started searching around.

There weren't many things in the tent, and after searching they didn't find what they wanted. Finally, their eyes fell on the person snoring loudly on the bed.

Envoy Tuoba was also very cautious. He hid the document close to his chest. Lu San and Lu Si took a lot of effort to carefully pull the thing out of his arms.

Of course we can't kill him. We have to wait for him and Lu Ling to work together inside and outside at night and fall into the trap.

After getting the things, the two rushed back to Yueguan City as quickly as possible. It was almost dusk at this time.

The Duke of Zhenguo took the document from his hand, and after reading the contents clearly, he wished he could pick up a big knife and cut that traitor Lu Lingye into pieces right now!

The frontier soldiers had not had enough food and clothing before, and it was her granddaughter who worked hard to earn money to support them. These people enjoyed wealth and glory, but they did such cruel things for their own selfish reasons!

Lu Zhen stood beside him, and after reading the contents, his expression became frighteningly gloomy.

"How dare you collude with foreign enemies for your own selfish interests and plot against our Great Zhou!"

"How could he do this? Five cities, 100,000 taels of gold, countless gold, silver and treasures, but the people of the Great Zhou supported such a beast!"

He drew the sword from his waist and walked out, "I'm going to kill him right now!"

"return!"

The Duke of Zhenguo stopped him.

Lu San and Lu Si also held him back, "Dad, don't be impulsive."

"Okay, no matter how old you are, you still can't change your reckless habits!"

The Duke of Zhenguo glared at him unhappily, folded the silk and put it away, "Everything should proceed as planned. If you ruin everything, I will skin you alive!"

Lu Zhen shuddered when he heard that. He pretended to retreat with the help of his two sons, still muttering, "Humph, if you two hadn't stopped me, I would have killed that traitor!"

My father always keeps his word and never talks nonsense. If he says he will skin you alive, even if he really doesn't, he can still make you skin off a layer of skin.

Lu San and Lu Si looked at each other and pursed their lips to hold back their laughter.

His father is not obedient to anyone, and only his grandfather can discipline him.

While people were furious here, on the other side of Qinling Mountains, Tuoba envoy was sitting on a chair with a green face.

The things were just signed last night, and they were stolen without anyone noticing. He hadn't even had time to warm them up yet...

"My Lord, what should we do now?"

Without the document, what can we use to threaten Prince Rui of the Great Zhou in the future?

Envoy Tuoba gnashed his teeth for a long time, then said coldly: "No one is allowed to leak this matter before Yueguan City is captured!"

It goes without saying who stole the document, but as long as Prince Rui doesn't know about it, it doesn't matter whether the document exists or not.

Lu Lingye indeed had no idea that the document had been taken by the Duke of Zhenguo before it had even warmed up to the ground. At this moment, he was still planning on how to get the city defense map of Yueguan City.

Zhao Zhong thought for a moment, "Your Majesty, how about I go to the Duke of Zhenguo and steal the things?"

It is simply impossible to get the Zhenguo Bus out. Not only will it arouse suspicion, but if it is lost it will also leave a handle for people to criticize.

It seems that the only way left is to steal.
