What to do if you have too many golden fingers? Walk sideways!

The next day.

The fake Turkic Khan and Khatun came to the government hall together.

When the ministers saw this, they couldn't help but shake their heads and sigh.

Ever since their Khan got this stunning Khatun, he has not attended court for several days. Today he went even further and even brought the Khatun with him.

After the ministers finished reporting the matters that needed to be decided by the Khan, Chu Zhao casually responded with a few words and then said to everyone:

"Last night, I received a secret letter from Yili. He recruited tens of thousands of warriors from the tribe, but they were short of weapons. Now is the critical moment to attack the Anning Kingdom. We must do our best. I just don't know how many weapons are left in the treasury?"

One of the ministers walked out of the queue quickly, bowed and replied:

"Great Khan, the current weapons inventory includes 5,000 swords, 3,000 spears, 5,000 longbows, and about 50,000 arrows."

Chu Zhao frowned, "This is not enough. Tell all the guards in the capital and the palace, as well as the soldiers in your palace, that all weapons will be temporarily handed over to the national treasury for unified allocation. Once they are collected, they will be sent to the front line."

The ministers were horrified.

"Great Khan, no! How can the guards of the capital and the palace be without weapons? If an enemy attacks, won't they just sit there and wait for death?"

Chu Zhao waved his hand, "Don't talk too much. Given the geographical location of Suiye City, it is impossible for the enemy to attack in the short term, and the war in the south is the top priority. If Yili takes over Anning Kingdom, what will Suiye City mean? When the time comes, everyone will go to the capital of Anning Kingdom, which is the real prosperous place."

The second prince stepped forward, bowed and said:

"Father Khan, if the palace guards are without weapons, what if someone with ulterior motives plots a rebellion?"

As he said this, he glanced at the third prince meaningfully.

The third prince had always been at odds with the second prince, and he immediately said angrily:

"Second brother, the person with ulterior motives is probably you, right?"

The two of them quarreled for a while and were about to fight. Chu Zhao, who had been watching the show for a while, pretended to be angry and said:

"You two, kneel down!"

The two men dared not disobey and both knelt on the ground.

"I believe that you are all good children and will not rebel. Moreover, most of the troops are in the hands of your eldest brother. If you rebel, you will be courting death!"

Finally, Chu Zhao made the final decision:

"It's settled. Go and get this done quickly. Before nightfall, I want all the weapons in Suiye City to be delivered to the national treasury! Anyone who disobeys will be killed without mercy!"

It is more effective to deter others if you show off your power and then leave immediately.

Chu Zhao walked out of the government hall with a stern face, and Gu Xi followed behind him. After leaving the hall, they smiled at each other and Gu Xi gave him a thumbs up.

"Khan, that's great!"

Who dares to disobey the Khan's decision?

On that day, Suiye City became busy.

Cartloads of weapons were sent to the national treasury, and even the soldiers guarding the city gates were left with nothing.

Chu Zhao and Gu Xi came to the place where the Turkic Khan Khatun was imprisoned.

Hu Guilin stepped forward and said:

"Major General, Captain Qi, the Turkic Khan has woken up."

The two nodded and walked into the secret room together.

Ashina Shalu's eyes were red at this moment, staring at the couple who came in.

He struggled to say something, but his mouth was sealed with tape and he could only make low whimpering sounds.

Gu Xi signaled Yu Xiangdong, who was dressed as a palace maid, to tear off the tape on his mouth.

"Who are you? How dare you commit treason!!" Ashina Shalu roared.

Chu Zhao was calm and composed, with a slight smile on his face.

"We are Han Chinese. There is no such thing as treason. The only thing we can do is to destroy the country and the Turks."

"Impossible! How could he be a Han Chinese?" Ashina Shalu couldn't believe it.

Their Suiye City basically does not allow Han people to enter. Even if they enter, the inspection is quite strict and someone will be assigned to guard it.

Moreover, these people clearly look like Turks!

But when he thought about their disguise skills again, Ashina Shalu began to believe it a little.

Chu Zhao said coldly:

"What? Are you Turks allowed to go south to plunder, but we are not allowed to counterattack?"

Gu Xi recalled the massacre of Caogou Village and his eyes flashed with ferocity.

She is bound to destroy the Turks!

Looking at this brutal couple, Ashina Shalu, as the king of a country, did not tremble in fear like the Khatun and his servants, but laughed out loud.

"Hahaha... Even if you kill me today, so what? My eldest son will soon invade Anning State. He will use his cavalry to flatten every inch of your Central Plains land and capture all of you Han people as slaves. He will avenge me!"

Chu Zhao laughed and said:

"You are overthinking it, Ashina Yili? He died three days ago, and the Turkic army no longer exists."

"Impossible! I don't believe it! You lied to me!" Ashina Shalu widened his eyes, full of disbelief.

Chu Zhao looked down at me, "You are already a prisoner, what else is there for me to deceive? I will not kill you, I will hand you over to the emperor of our Anning country. If you don't believe me, you can just wait for your son to save you."

When Ashina Shalu thought that he had not received any message from the flying eagle in the past two days, his face turned pale and his body began to tremble involuntarily.

He slumped on the ground with empty eyes, as if he had lost all hope.

Then he raised his head again and looked at the two people in front of him, his heart filled with hatred and despair.

"Just wait, the goshawk on the grassland will never surrender!" he said gritting his teeth.

After that, no matter what Chu Zhao asked, Ashina Shalu remained silent.

In that case, then I won’t ask. Anyway, he is the “Turkic Khan” now, so if he wants to know something, he can just ask others.

Then, Gu Xi and Chu Zhao happily went to raid the Turkic royal palace.

Whenever he saw something valuable, he would collect it. He also accidentally discovered Ashina Shalu's private vault, which was much more satisfying than raiding Zhen Wude.

After all, he is the king of a country.

As for the concubines, princes, and princesses in the harem, they did not move for the time being so as not to arouse unnecessary suspicion from the outside world.

When it was dark, Yuan Da, who was in charge of the national treasury, went to the palace to report that all the weapons in the city had been stored in the warehouse. He also asked the Khan who should be arranged to deliver the weapons to the front line.

Chu Zhao pretended to say:

"Take Ben Khan and Khatun to the treasury first and then make a decision."

Yuan Da immediately led the way and sent the male and female to the gate of the treasury. Little did he know that he was actually sending a mouse into the rice jar.

The door opened, and Chu Zhao said to Yuan Da:

"Give the key to me, and wait outside. No matter what happens inside, you are not allowed to come in unless I call you."

Yuan Da was stunned. The Khan took Khatun in alone? How could this be so strange?

He thought about it for a while and then his thoughts went astray.

"Hehe..." An evil smile appeared on his face, and some disgusting scenes emerged in his mind.

It is said that the Khan has a special fetish in that aspect. Could it be that he is tired of playing in the palace and wants to seek different excitement with the Khatun in the treasury...
