Time flew by.
In the blink of an eye, more than half a month passed.
Just when Ying Chu thought that something had happened to the Xiongnu envoy, he finally received some news.
Tonight, the First Emperor would welcome the Xiongnu emissary from afar!
……
Night fell.
Looking at the Xiongnu emissary who looked like a country bumpkin, the courtiers subconsciously raised their heads.
It was as if he was saying," Do you see this? This is the golden age of the Great Qin Empire. You boorish people from the grasslands have probably never seen such a scene in your lives, right?”
That disdainful look made the Xiongnu emissaries led by Acton somewhat unhappy.
However, they could not say anything.
After all, they were in Great Qin's territory, and if they were not careful, they would die without a burial ground.
In addition, the carved beams, painted buildings, pavilions, red bricks, and green tiles along the way were indeed scenery that they could not see on the grasslands.
Compared to the yurts on the grasslands, there was nothing much to say.
Of course, it was useless even if they wanted to retort.
After all…
There was a language barrier!
However, the most important thing was that they were the defeated party and had no right to express their opinions.
The moment they arrived, they felt everyone's disdainful gazes. The few Xiongnu envoys were really speechless.
Looking at their deflated looks, Ying Chu smiled unkindly.
Although he had no feelings for the Xiongnu people, he really did not do it on purpose.
Can you imagine the confused, depressed, and aggrieved expressions on the faces of a dozen burly men with full beards?
Who wouldn't laugh at this scene?
Although they knew that it was inappropriate, the few courtiers around them could not help but laugh as he let out an unbridled laugh.
Even the First Emperor narrowed his eyes.
Seeing that the situation was getting out of control, Feng Quji immediately raised his wine cup and shouted,"Today, the Xiongnu envoys have come to pay their respects and are willing to serve Your Majesty as a vassal of Great Qin!”
"Therefore, this first cup of wine is to toast the Xiongnu emissaries who have come from afar. May the Xiongnu and Great Qin build a hundred years of friendship!”
The ministers present also raised their wine glasses and looked at the Xiongnu emissary opposite them."May the Xiongnu and Great Qin build a hundred years of friendship!”
Immediately after, Acton also stood up hurriedly and said a lot of things.
Before the interpreter could speak, many officials in the court began to nod slightly, as if they knew the Xiongnu language.
Ying Chu kept shaking his head.
This infuriated the tallest and strongest man among the Xiongnu envoys.
What was up with that child?
He was the first one to laugh at him.
Now, she kept shaking her head when they were talking.
Can you understand what they are saying?
Just as he couldn't help but glare at Ying Chu, Acton blocked his way.
Seeing this, Ying Chu didn't restrain himself. Instead, he glared at the other party in a provocative manner.
"You're about to become a vassal of Great Qin, yet you're still speaking in bird language? Do you know what respect is?"
This time, he definitely did it on purpose!
Of course, Great Qin's translator was not stupid enough to tell the Xiongnu envoys this.
However, just from Ying Chu's overly arrogant face, one could see that there were many problems.
No one was a fool.
This time, a few more envoys looked at Ying Chu with dissatisfaction.
Looking at the Xiongnu emissaries who dared to be angry but did not dare to speak, Ying Chu subconsciously moved closer to Emperor Shi.
In the next second, the few people on the other side lowered their heads.
They could still show some displeasure towards Ying Chu and the others, but towards the First Emperor…
Who would dare?
Yes.
As expected.
Being close to Qin Shi Huang gave him a sense of security.
Ying Chu smiled proudly.
Now, even if the system was up to something, he was not afraid anymore.
Yes, it was.
The reason why he dared to be so arrogant now was because of that damned Demon System.
Just as he was laughing loudly, the system's mechanical voice suddenly sounded.
Ding! [Mission: Provoke the Xiongnu Envoy!]
[Mission Reward: Proficient in eight languages!] (Note: You can choose!)
Damn it.
After resting for so long, who was he trying to scare to death by suddenly making a sound?
Dissatisfaction was one thing, but he still had to complete his mission.
After all, the number of treasures he had obtained from the System Space was decreasing at a visible rate.
His heart ached!
Moreover, what was there to be afraid of when Qin Shi Huang was protecting him?
Those Xiongnu envoys couldn't possibly beat him up in front of the First Emperor, right?
Besides, he would be proficient in eight languages after completing the mission!
When the time came, he would choose the Xiongnu language first, which would definitely give them a fright!
Thinking about it this way, Ying Chu felt that he could be a little more arrogant.
In any case, the Xiongnu would be a great threat to the Qin country sooner or later. Even if he was friendly to this group of people now, he would definitely turn hostile in the future.
Since that was the case, why bother?
Looking at Ying Chu's arrogant appearance, Acton clenched his teeth and swallowed his anger.
Why was this child even more annoying than their Chanyu's youngest son?
Although he hated Ying Chu, as the leader of the Xiongnu envoys, he still remembered his mission clearly.
"Your Majesty, we, the Xiongnu, have come to pay our respects today in order to become your courtiers. For this, we have specially brought the best gold, silver, jewelry, and thousands of fine horses from the Xiongnu…"
After taking a deep breath, Acton smiled as he handed a gift list to Emperor Shi.
With the explanation of the interpreter, the list of gifts was also delivered to the First Emperor's case through the eunuch's hand.
Ying Chu also hurriedly followed.
Hehe!
This was the advantage of sitting next to the First Emperor. If the First Emperor was willing, nothing could escape his eyes!
In order to show his respect, Chief Touman had specially copied this list of gifts from the best writers of Qin Zhuan in the entire Xiongnu.
However, Ying Chu only took two glances before he curled his lips in disdain.
The system reward had not appeared yet. Since that was the case, he did not mind adding fuel to the fire!
No matter what, he had to curb the development of the Xiongnu.
It was already 210 B.C. When Mao Dun succeeded to the throne next year, the Xiongnu would not be so easy to talk to.
After pondering for a while, Ying Chu finally decided to continue.
"You have the cheek to take out such a small thing? Do you think Great Qin doesn't have one?"
"Since you want to become our affiliated kingdom, you should at least give us something decent, right?”
After Emperor Shi finished reading the list of gifts, he quickly slapped the paper on the table.
Pa!
After a soft sound, he supported himself with his arm and said," Let's not talk about anything else. Since you have so many good horses, then offer them all. Give me a few more grasslands…"
"Since you're already a vassal kingdom, those things belong to Great Qin. It's already my father's kindness to let you live there!”
