The Empress came ashore and beheaded the meritorious officials, forcing me to wear the yellow robe

result……

Li Jize's cold eyes swept across the crowd and he said, "Do you know why I hit him?"

The barbarian delegation at the scene: "..."

"Because my wife is right, he is a traitor seeking fame and fortune!"

"You can still be called an envoy, but Kong Youxiang, who the hell are you? You're actually shouting and yelling here!"

Having said that, Li Jize quietly took out another pistol and aimed it directly at Kong Youxiang.

Kong Youxiang, who had just been shot in the knee, became a little panicked. He kept shouting, "King of Qin! King of Qin, let's talk it over. I know I was wrong! I know I was wrong!"

"Kong Youxiang, I won't kill you! Go back and tell your regent to clean his neck and wait for my Qin army!"

boom!

After that, another shot was fired, and Kong Youxiang let out another shrill scream.

Because of this shot, his other leg was directly broken.

Kong Youxiang wailed, and at Li Jize's signal, he and the barbarian envoys were directly driven out of the Qin Palace.

Throughout the hall, counselors and generals looked at Li Jize with excitement. This was their King of Qin! How could he forget the greater good for the sake of petty gains?

What was our original intention in raising an army?

If he married their princess out of fear of the barbarians and finally reached an alliance, Li Jize could afford to lose this person, but his subordinates could not.

Even the Princess of Qin, Wang Yuanya, looked at Li Jize with shining eyes, and her face was slightly hot.

this moment……

She really felt that Li Jize was a good man and very handsome!

There is a word in later generations: this man is so manly!

……

Li Jize used forceful means to break Kong Youxiang's legs and drove away the barbarian envoys.

but……

The Southern Court doesn’t know about this, right?

Look, the eunuch sent by the empress to announce the decree, after crossing Tianjiang, rode non-stop and chased all night long.

He hurried back to the southern court and went to see his master, Empress Dowager Zi.

The empress was still worried about the empty treasury and the battle between Gao Pan and Zuo Santong ahead.

It’s so fucking terrible!

As an emperor who successfully restored the country, how does she feel now?

In your previous life, you had a hard time living because you had no money, and eventually died in poverty.

As a result, after traveling through time, you swore solemnly that you must live a good life in this life and would never let such a thing happen again.

Who would have thought that after traveling back in time, it would be nothing...

Still nothing has changed!

Your final outcome will still be death in poverty.

How could the empress not feel heartbroken and uncomfortable?

Especially after a new batch of supplies and money was sent to Gao Pan, the military intelligence received was that the front line had not made much progress at all.

This feeling is so fucking special...

All my money is really wasted.

At this moment, someone came from outside to report that Eunuch Gao, who had gone to Qingzhou, had returned.

Ok?

The Empress looked at the time after hearing this and was quite surprised. Did he run so fast? He was back in just a few days?

Even though it is all water travel, the speed is quite amazing.

Of course, this is not the Empress's main concern. Her biggest concern right now is...

What happened to the arms? Did Li Jize bring them back?

"Hurry up!"

"According to the order!"

Soon, the dusty eunuch entered the Empress's Hall of Mental Cultivation. The first words he said were, "Your Majesty! I am back. I have finally seen Your Majesty."

The empress was not surprised by this exaggerated way of expressing "loyalty". It was nothing strange, right?

So she didn't say anything. After the eunuch finished speaking, the empress finally asked, "Eunuch Gao, you have worked hard. Did you gain anything from your trip to Qingzhou?"

Eunuch Gao was stunned for a moment, then couldn't help but complain, "Your Majesty, that Li Jize is simply too cunning! When Your Majesty asked to requisition firearms, he feigned ignorance, even saying that the craftsmen had seized his factory because he had no money! Without the money, he couldn't obtain the weapons at all."

"what?"

The empress widened her eyes when she heard this, looking incredulous. She and Eunuch Gao had exactly the same idea.

What kind of international joke is this?

You, Li Jize, command a large army, even possessing muskets and artillery, yet your factory was taken over by a few craftsmen? You were unable to extract the weapons?

It's absolutely ridiculous!

It's obvious that they are just making excuses and don't want to hand over the muskets and cannons.

Of course, so what if I knew?

So what if you know?

Even if the empress was very unhappy, she couldn't lose her temper. It would only do her harm if she fell out with him.

Think about the current stalemate on the front line. If weapons are not supplied to Gao Pan, the war will probably continue to be stalemate, and she will spend even more money!

Thinking of this, the empress took a deep breath and said, "If that's the case, he's stingy! I won't force it on him. You go on another diplomatic mission, and I'll pay for it!"

Finally, the empress compromised. Although silver is good, as long as she has conquered enough territory, why would she be afraid of not having silver?

"This……"

After his master finished speaking, Eunuch Gao fell into a dilemma, and the empress was stunned when she saw this.

"What? You old dog, do you have anything else to say?"

"Your Majesty! This time during my trip to Qingzhou, I discovered a great secret. I don't know whether I should tell you or not!"

Ok?

The empress was stunned. Is there another important secret?

"But is it about Li Jize?"

"Exactly!"

"Tell me quickly, what's the secret?"

The empress was still very concerned about Li Jize's affairs.

So...

Eunuch Gao could only hesitantly and stammeringly tell the whole story.

Sure enough, after hearing that the barbarians had sent envoys to contact Li Jize, the empress panicked!

What does this mean? Barbarian envoys have appeared in Qingzhou. Does Li Jize want to make peace with them? Or is Li Jize planning to surrender to the barbarians?

If that's the case, that would be terrible!

The barbarians were already invincible, and now they are relying on Li Jize and the rebels to cause trouble for them in the north. Once Li Jize surrenders, how can they fight back?

Aren’t the barbarians preparing to move south?

Thinking of this, the anxious empress looked at the eunuch and hurriedly asked, "Did you find out what the barbarian envoy is doing in Qingzhou?"

"Your Majesty! I've inquired!"

"Hurry up and tell me, Li Jize wants to make peace with the barbarians?"

"no!"

The empress just breathed a sigh of relief, but unexpectedly, this damn eunuch said, "The barbarians are here for marriage!"
