I was fucked by Zheng Ge as soon as I crossed over

"Oh? He went to pick it up in person? Do you know what the letter said?"

In the deep and dark hall, candlelight flickered, and the light source shone on the hem of Ying Zheng's dark golden dragon robe, illuminating the auspicious clouds embroidered with gold thread on the robe as if they were real objects, making it look particularly mysterious.

The black-armored guard knelt on one knee, clasped his fists in salute, and respectfully replied, "Your Majesty, Fu Xiling did not open the letter after obtaining it. He turned and left, and only opened it and read it carefully after returning to the study. I am incompetent and did not find an opportunity to investigate."

Ying Zheng raised his hand slightly, his eyes flashing with a majestic and cold light, and slowly said: "I don't blame you, just keep staring."

"Yes! We will monitor the situation day and night and will not neglect it in the slightest."

After the black-armored guard finished speaking, he stood up from where he was, lowered his head, and looked at Ying Zheng's boots.

Ying Zheng's brows knitted slightly, a hint of suspicion flashing in his eyes, "What else?"

"Zhao Gao..." the black-armored guard continued, "He passed the news of the abandoned jade to a horse attendant, who traveled south to Hanzhong."

A solemn look appeared on the black-armored guard's stern face.

"Strangely, the messengers kept changing, and when they reached Nanjun, something unexpected happened. The messenger quietly split the letter in two, sending one to Nanyang and the other continuing south, straight down to Lujiang."

"Lujiang County?" Ying Zheng's face became increasingly gloomy.

He tapped lightly on the armrest of the dragon throne, thought for a moment, and snorted coldly.

"Humph~ What a false pretext to escape."

These are hidden so deeply.

"Keep watching closely, don't alert the enemy. Once you make a move, make sure it's foolproof!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!" The black-armored guard responded loudly and stepped out.

At this moment, a gust of night wind blew, and the candle flame jumped violently, as if it was about to jump out of the lamp.

Light and shadow intertwined on Ying Zheng's stern face, and his figure seemed to blend into the dark night.

Only in those cold eyes was there a sense of impending storm.

A glimpse of the leopard in the tube can be seen.

Things are getting interesting.

The big plan that Su Jinyue had painted for the Lu family finally became a reality after the New Year holiday.

Inside the majestic imperial court hall, all the civil and military officials were in a good mood after their vacation, and today's meeting was particularly harmonious.

Until Su Jinyue stepped out, breaking the silence in the hall.

"Father, I would like to recommend Lu Shizhi, the second son of the Lu family, as a diplomatic envoy to various countries in the Western Regions to conduct trade, explore their conditions, obtain high-quality seeds, and enhance the prestige of our Great Qin!"

The Lu family? Whose family?

The home of the Imperial Master, Empress Lü Zhi?

Who is Lü Shizhi? Why haven't I heard of him?

All the ministers looked confused, wondering what talents this man had that could be recommended by the imperial preceptor himself.

Only Lu Zhi and Lu Ze, who were standing behind the ministers, were staring nervously ahead.

Whether the second brother can make the trip depends on this one move.

Although they had great confidence in the Imperial Master, they couldn't help but feel their hearts beating faster and their palms sweating.

When the ministers' discussions died down, Ying Zheng finally spoke: "Oh? Lü Shizhi? Summon him into the palace."

"Announce Lü Shizhi's audience—"

The messenger immediately passed the message.

The voices of the messengers spread outside the palace.

The Lu family, who had been anxiously waiting at home, hurried into action upon receiving the news that the emperor had summoned them.

"Yes, my son, that's good! Yes, yes!"

Lu Gong looked Lu Shizhi up and down anxiously, and adjusted his clothes from time to time.

Several people followed the messenger all the way to the carriage outside the Lu Mansion.

"My son, think again about what you are going to say. The adults will definitely test you. Don't be nervous, stay calm."

As Lü Gong walked along, he kept saying, "It doesn't matter if you're wrong. The most important thing is to deal with it properly and calmly."

Lu Shizhi listened to his grandfather's nagging and could not remember a single word.

Before getting on the carriage, he took a deep breath, turned his head, and looked at Lu Gong with a firm gaze.

"Don't worry, grandpa, I'm leaving!" After saying that, he turned around, got into the carriage, and closed his eyes to rest.

The sound of horse hooves pounded forward.

Lu Gong looked at the carriage with worry, muttering to himself, "Good! Good! My son, do your best. I won't worry about you anymore. I won't worry about you anymore."

Only when the carriage disappeared from his sight did Lu Gong reluctantly retreat back to the Lu Mansion.

Lu Zhi and Lu Ze, who were equally worried, had no time to consider how long it would take for Lu Shizhi to arrive.

because.

Round after round of discussions had already taken place in the main hall regarding the diplomatic mission to the Western Regions.

"Your Majesty, this matter should be handled by the Imperial Court and the Interpreter. Even if Lü Shizhi is recommended by the Imperial Master, he cannot handle it alone. He should accompany the others."

Ying Zheng nodded, he also had the same idea.

Su Jinyue has it too.

This was something they had discussed long ago.

Therefore, she did not refute it.

After making her remonstration, she returned to her original seat, listening calmly to the arguments among the civil and military officials, staying out of the matter.

As if this argument wasn't caused by her, just for fun.

After Dian Ke finished speaking, the generals were not to be outdone and spoke one after another.

"Your Majesty, the Western Regions are plundering by nature. How can we send only these scholars? We must send military commanders!"

"That's right! Your Majesty, if you don't send me, I promise to bring them back in their original state! If we encounter that stubborn place, we can also take down a piece of it, hahahaha!"

When he spoke of something cheerful, all the ministers started laughing.

A civil official pointed at the general and scoffed, "You scoundrel! I went there to investigate the state of the country, but you're calling it a land grab? If you were to put it that way, wouldn't it be more to your liking to just send a large army and attack?"

"Hahaha!" The general stopped making a fuss and laughed even louder.

"That's even better. Finally, I'll give them a few divine thunders and scare the shit out of them!"

"Hahaha!"

The ministers laughed even louder.

In such an atmosphere, a messenger came to report, "Lü Shizhi has been brought here."

"Xuan——"

The ministers returned to their original solemn and dignified appearance and turned around to look at the figure at the palace door.

Lu Shizhi lowered his head respectfully, walked slowly forward, and officially stepped into the court hall that represented the pinnacle of power, starting his magnificent life.

"Student Lü Shizhi pays homage to His Majesty. Long live His Majesty, and long live the Great Qin!"

With standard etiquette and a clear voice, the young man, dressed in the uniform of a student from the Great Qin Academy, knelt respectfully in the center of the hall.

Ying Zheng looked at Lu Shizhi like this, his eyes becoming more profound.

He raised his head and glanced at everyone in the hall.

There were Xiao He who was beside the Minister of Grain, Lü Ze who was behind the Minister of Commerce, and Lü Zhi and Xu Fu who were among the people in the National Master's Mansion.

Soon, he will be surrounded by more celebrities.

"No need to formalize, please stand up." Ying Zheng's voice echoed in the hall, carrying with it the unquestionable imperial spirit.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Lu Shizhi took a deep breath and stood upright in the middle of the civil and military officials, not daring to slack off in the slightest.

Ying Zheng's voice rang out again, "Lü Shizhi, the Imperial Master has recommended you as the Imperial Guest, to be sent on a diplomatic mission to the Western Regions to enhance our nation's prestige. However, the ministers are unaware of your talents. Do you dare to answer the three questions of the ministers who have assisted you in receiving this honor?"
