"You guys…"
The Turkic envoy was at a loss for words, unable to refute.
He truly hadn't expected that those old ministers of the Sui Dynasty who had backed down would suddenly demand that he represent the Turks and kneel before the Emperor of Great Sui.
According to past marriages, the entire process would have been relatively smooth, and there would have been no problems. The Turkic envoys were already familiar with the process.
"Great Sui is truly insincere, making things difficult for our Turks.”
They were the eagles of the grassland, the only warriors sent by the heavens, how could they kneel so easily?
Moreover, Sui Chen must have deliberately made things difficult for him to make a fool of himself.
The Turkic messenger made up his mind, but he still refused to kneel in the hall.
"Where are the swordsmen in front of the palace?"
Just as the Turkic envoy refused to kneel and the officials were about to say something, a stern voice echoed through the hall.
"Your Majesty!"
In that moment, several valiant fruit guards stepped into the hall and folded their hands.
"Drag out that barbarian who looks down on the Celestial Empire and fry him alive.”
In Yang Zheng's tone, there was not much emotional fluctuation, as if it was an extremely insignificant matter.
"Yes!"
No matter what they did, the Vigor Guards would only obey the emperor's orders, regardless of the consequences.
The Turkic envoy's eyes widened. He had never expected that the newly ascended Emperor of Great Sui would be so ruthless as to fry him alive.
"Your Majesty, you must not…"
Many of the officials were alarmed. Frying the Turkic envoy was no different from a declaration of war. It would probably provoke a war between both sides.
"Come, I'll do it. In the blink of an eye, you're no longer a Turkic warrior.”
"If you blink, I can willingly kneel and come in.”
Seeing many of the Sui officials dissuade their emperor, the Turkic emissary was fearless and had a rough idea.
After he finished speaking, he pretended to spread his arms and let the Vigor Guard take him away.
"Your Majesty, this move is feasible.”
Some Sui officials had different opinions. The Turkic messenger looked and saw that it was his old rival, Zhangsun Sheng.
Yes, Zhangsun Sheng still wanted to go one step further and test the young emperor.
He wanted to see his overall ability, including his temperament, so that he could adjust his strategy in the future.
An emperor who had far-reaching political vision, extraordinary handling methods, and a calm mind needed to change his previous method of assisting.
"We agree."
Zhangsun Sheng had been with the Turks for many years, and he had never miscalculated. Wu Jianzhang and the other auxiliary officials trusted him unconditionally, and they all stepped forward to bow.
"I agree."
Seeing that the four auxiliary ministers did not object, Yang Su naturally supported the emperor.
As the auxiliary minister stepped out, a few elders of Kai Sui followed closely behind, bringing along many civil and military officials.
There was no need to mention Yuwen Huaji. He was good at changing the situation and deciding who to support.
The other ministers who were against it felt helpless and could only follow most of their colleagues.
We agree!
These few words echoed through Taiji Palace and struck the Turkic envoy's heart.
It was completely contrary to what they were thinking. The ministers of Great Sui agreed with this suggestion and fried themselves.
The Turkic messenger was instantly dumbfounded. There had been many Sui officials who had objected, but now there was no one.
"Come, I accept the Great Sui's deep-frying, but the Great Khan won't easily end this matter.”
Left with no other choice, the Turkic messenger could only bite the bullet and pretend to be a brave warrior while uttering vicious words.
Without any obstruction from the officials, the Vigorous Fruit Guards dragged the Turkic envoy out of the hall and prepared to throw him into a pot of oil and fry him alive.
As countless small bubbles appeared in the oil pan, bubbling sounds sounded one after another. Waves of boiling gas that contained extremely high temperatures rose.
Moreover, it was still rolling continuously, one wave sweeping up another wave, making one look daunting.
Gazing at the boiling pot of oil, the Turkic envoy could clearly feel its extremely high temperature, and he swallowed with difficulty.
"The temperature of the oil pot is enough.”
With the permission of their commander, several soldiers of the Valiant Fruit Guard carried the Turkic envoy and walked towards the oil pot.
Bubbles would occasionally fly out, and the Turkic envoy felt a burning pain on his face as his skin began to peel off.
In an instant, a huge pain swept through his entire body. It was really unbearable.
Just the bubbles alone had caused such pain. One could imagine how painful it would be when it was cooked.
The Turkic messenger was not afraid of death, but of how long he would have to endure before he could be freed.
Compared to the pleasure of dying in battle or being beheaded, the boiling oil was too much for the Turkic messenger to handle.
Moreover, since he had become an envoy who was proficient in the language of the Central Plains, he had not enjoyed enough glory and wealth. How could he die just like that?
"Wait!"
"I'm willing to kowtow to the emperor of Great Sui!”
In the face of extreme physical torture, the Turkic envoy chose to compromise with the Emperor of Great Sui and immediately cowered.
Ignoring the pain of being thrown down, the Turkic messenger glanced at the pot of oil with lingering fear, gasping for breath.
"Please, emissary."
Saying this, the Valiant Fruit Guard raised his weapon and pointed it at the Turkic messenger.
If he blinked, he would willingly kneel and enter!
The Turkic messenger regretted his words and wished he could slap himself.
If the Emperor of Great Sui wanted him to kneel down and salute, then so be it. Why would he not agree?
Now, not only did he have to kneel and salute, he also had to kneel from outside the hall to inside.
Otherwise, they would still be fried alive. The tragic scene was unimaginable.
"Foreign minister Tuli Xiang greets Great Sui's Majesty. I greet His Majesty on behalf of the Great Khan.”
The Turkic messenger knelt and kowtowed while shouting loudly, afraid that the Emperor of Great Sui could not hear him.
I, Tu Lixiang, pay my respects to Your Majesty of Great Sui. I greet Your Majesty on behalf of the Great Khan!
From outside the hall to inside the hall, every time this sentence sounded, they would kowtow once.
At this point, he knelt down in Taiji Palace!
