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

Hu Yanzhuo's words were reasonable and well-founded, and Hu Yanjun indeed fell into deep thought.

Hu Yanzhuo knew that pressing the matter further would backfire, so he said, "Uncle, think it over carefully. If the two of us join forces, we might be able to keep them here completely. If not... well, I don't see any hope at all."

Hu Yanjun's heart tightened.

What this kid means is that if we don't team up with him this time, he'll be even less likely to try anything in the future.

That makes sense, the Zhao delegation couldn't stay here forever. Once the delegation left, even if they wanted to, they wouldn't be able to reach them.

Seeing Hu Yanjun's increasingly somber expression, a smile flashed in Hu Yanzhuo's deep eyes: "I won't disturb you any longer."

After saying that, Hu Yanzhuo turned and left.

The tent curtain was lowered again, and a ruthless glint flashed in Hu Yanjun's eyes.

This kid was wholeheartedly loyal to the Great Zhao before, and the Great Zhao delegation came to support him this time. How come he has developed rebellious intentions?

Although Huyan Zhuo said he couldn't stand the Zhao people swaggering around on the barbarian territory, Huyan Jun felt that such an excuse was reasonable, but not enough.

It wasn't enough to justify Hu Yanzhuo's ruthless attack.

What if this was a trap set by Huyan Zhuo and the Dazhao people in collusion against him?

Upon realizing this, Hu Yanjun's expression tightened.

It is indeed possible.

We shouldn't act rashly right now; we should observe the situation first.

For the next few days, Hu Yanjun didn't go to see Hu Yanzhuo again; things were extremely quiet.

Hu Yanzhuo remained calm and composed. He didn't make any moves when Hu Yanjun didn't come to him, and on the surface, he continued to deal with the delegation flawlessly.

The more meticulous he was in his explanation, the more Hu Yanjun believed that he was dissatisfied with the mission.

The reason is simple: Hu Yanzhuo's way of dealing with people is all too familiar to him.

Isn't this the same way I dealt with myself back then?

Hu Yanjun looked closely and found it increasingly familiar.

With Hu Yanjun being so honest, the delegation had no room to maneuver for the time being.

After all, they need a reason to come here, but now that Hu Yanjun is lying there quietly, they can't find a reason to make a move.

Therefore, the delegation became increasingly anxious, and some unknown young people in the delegation even began to sarcastically curse Hu Yanjun in front of him.

They said that he was old and of seniority, yet he was suppressed by a junior and couldn't hold his head up. He was the most pathetic person they had ever seen in their lives, without exception.

They also said that he was probably unlucky and had a bad birth chart, otherwise how could he be the only one alive after his parents and brothers had all died? Maybe those people were cursed to death by him.

Hu Yanjun deeply resented that he could understand the language of Da Zhao, and was even proficient in it.

Those words, each one pierced my heart, it hurt so much!

Hu Yanjun is not one to hold back his anger. When he could no longer tolerate it, after being criticized behind his back for several days, he finally snapped.

As he prepared to go to Huyan Zhuo's camp to discuss taking action, he saw the delegation's guards from a distance.

Hu Yanjun's eyebrows twitched.

Instead of walking straight over, he went around to the back of Huyan Zhuo's tent, crouched down, and listened intently to the sounds inside.

“Huyan Chanyu, you didn’t say that before we came.”

Hu Yanjun immediately recognized the voice as belonging to the leader of the delegation, who seemed to be some kind of duke.

"You're the one who said your uncle was causing trouble among the barbarians, so you called us over to lend a hand. Now look at him, lying on the ground like a dog, not even baring his teeth. How could he be as bad as you described?"

Hu Yanjun was immediately struck in the heart by an arrow.

"That's right, your uncle doesn't seem like a capable person at all. How come you couldn't even handle someone like that? Did you snatch this position of Chanyu yourself?"
