May this scumbag husband, who favored his concubine over his wife, rest in peace.

Fortunately, Wen Yuanshu and Lu Chengyuan were there, allowing the three siblings to be reunited alive.

Seeing them like this, Wen Yuanshu felt bad.

She was genuinely happy for them, but the thought of all the hardships these three children had endured made her sad.

Lu Chengyuan squeezed her hand and said calmly, "I'm not doing this entirely for you; there's no need for that."

Wu Lichuan pursed his lips.

That being said, Lu Chengyuan's help to them was genuine.

"From now on, the Ministry of Justice will probably be coming to see you frequently, so you should go back and rest early."

After leaving those words, Lu Chengyuan put his arm around Wen Yuanshu and walked away.

The three siblings bowed again to the backs of the two figures before turning and leaving.

Taking a walk around the Golden Palace in the morning is really not easy for them, so they really need to rest well now so that they will have the energy to cooperate with the Ministry of Justice.

Everything in the capital returned to normal. The Wu Hao case was reopened under the cooperation of the Ministry of Justice and the Embroidered Uniform Guard, and the delegation finally entered the barbarian territory.

Unlike the Dazhao people, the barbarian tribes have lived on the grasslands and deserts for generations and have to migrate frequently. Therefore, there are no sturdy buildings here, but rather one tent per family, which makes it convenient to migrate with them.

It's a bit tragic, but the place where the royal tent was located was still very luxurious and magnificent.

The tents, large and small, were arranged in a pleasing manner, surrounding the most luxurious tent in the center. Guards patrolled the tent with swords at all times, creating a solemn atmosphere.

Faced with a folk culture completely different from that of the Great Zhao, the group was curious but showed no sign of it, maintaining the demeanor of a great nation.

Huyan Zhuo had known the delegation was coming for a long time, so he personally led people to greet them outside the royal tent and personally welcomed the Duke of Li and others into the main tent.

Once the distinguished guest was seated, someone brought over an exquisite gold cup and offered mare's milk wine.

"Last time I went to Dazhao, I saw a lot of things, but I'm afraid you gentlemen have never tasted our mare's milk wine before."

They were treated to a warm welcome, and the Duke of Li and his entourage naturally drank their share.

Duke Li was the first to drink the mare's milk wine, and said, "This wine is rich in milk flavor, and has a pleasant sweet and sour taste. It's really good!"

This is a completely different flavor from the wine of Da Zhao, which is really novel.

"I'm glad our esteemed guest is pleased," Hu Yanzhuo said with a smile. "Last time I went to Dazhao, I didn't pay my respects to the Duke, which was truly impolite."

No sooner had he finished speaking than a heavy, cold snort rang out.

Everyone looked in the direction of the voice and saw a burly man with a thick beard looking displeased: "What kind of Duke is he? No matter how high his status is, he is still a subject. As a leader, how can he take the initiative to pay respects to his subjects? Doesn't he feel ashamed!"

"It's just making friends, what's shameful about it?" The Duke of Li's gaze fell on the burly man, his tone extremely cold.

Hu Yanzhuo's smile deepened: "What the Duke said is true. There is nothing shameful about making friends. A person who says such a thing must not have many friends."

I've disliked that person for a long time.

Taking advantage of his age, he repeatedly suppressed him. For every word he said, the other man would have ten more to say. However, the other man was very prestigious, and he couldn't do anything to him for the time being.

Now, relying on the power of the Great Zhao, even if they can't take action, they can still indulge in some verbal sparring.

As expected, with people from the Great Zhao present, the man, though unwilling, dared not say anything more.

The officials of the Great Zhao Kingdom took in the undercurrents within the royal tent, but none of them showed any emotion.

The person who had been rebuked fell silent, and Hu Yanzhuo's gaze fell on the person sitting next to the Duke of Li.

He noticed this person as soon as he saw the delegation. This person was the youngest in the delegation, yet he stood directly next to the Duke of Li. His identity must be extraordinary.

Noticing Hu Yanzhuo's gaze, the Duke of Li said, "His Majesty values ​​the barbarians highly. This time, he sent a nobleman to accompany him to demonstrate the court's respect for the barbarians."
