Meng Yuan's diplomatic mission traveled day and night.
In just a few days, they arrived at Xianyang City.
After presenting the relevant documents, he was brought to Zhangtai Palace.
"What is the reason for your visit?”
Ying Zheng sat on the throne, sizing up the envoys of the Mengyuan.
Although Ying Zheng still looked a little immature at the moment, he already had the appearance of a monarch.
Especially after Lu Buwei had handed over all his power, his influence in the Great Qin Dynasty Hall was like the sun at noon.
Ying Zheng had also heard about Lu Buwei's whereabouts.
However, he showed his magnanimity and did not take it to heart.
When he was still young, Lu Buwei had done him a favor, and he had done his best for everything in the country.
Lu Buwei had been removed only because he held too much power and had affected him.
"Meng Yuan's envoy, Thor, has received orders from my father, Tie Muzhen, to demand an explanation from Qin.”
Thor took a step forward. He was the fourth son of Genghis Khan.
The fact that he was in charge of this handover showed how angry Genghis Khan was.
"Explanation?"
Hearing what Thor said, Ying Zheng was stunned.
Although Qin and Mengyuan were neighbors, they had been living in peace all these years.
Moreover, both sides often took what they needed and had good economic and trade exchanges.
He originally thought that Meng Yuan had sent an envoy here to make some deals with Qin Zai.
However, he did not expect the other party to ask Qin to give an explanation.
This made Ying Zheng somewhat confused.
"Qin and Meng Yuan have been at peace for a long time. What do you need to explain?"”
When Thor heard this, he snorted coldly and said,"Qin sent a land immortal to kill my Mengyuan General Zhe Bie in the north of the Great Xia. Could it be that the King of Qin wants to let this go?”
Hearing this.
Ying Zheng was completely dumbfounded.
He looked at Meng Ao, only to find that Meng Ao was also confused.
In an instant, Ying Zheng understood that there must be some misunderstanding.
"I don't know what you're talking about. Is there some misunderstanding?" he said calmly.”
However, Thor didn't appreciate it.
He inherited Genghis Khan's bad temper and said directly,""Misunderstanding? Could it be that the King of Qin thinks that someone in Great Xia can kill Great General Zhe Bie of Mengyuan?”
Hearing this.
Ying Zheng's eyes turned cold.
He had wanted to explain properly, but he did not expect the other party's attitude to be so tough.
He was just an envoy, yet he dared to humiliate himself again and again in the Great Hall of the King of Qin!
His eyes were cold, and a terrifying aura suddenly spread.
Ying Zheng looked at Thor coldly and said," I have good intentions to maintain the friendship between Qin and Mengyuan, but you are so obstinate. Could it be that you are here to seize the opportunity to start a war with Qin?"!”
"If Meng Yuan wants to start a war, I will accompany him! But have you thought about how the other vassal kings would react if the two countries were to fight?”
Ying Zheng's personality was overbearing.
Not to mention that Meng Yuan had come with a groundless matter and was about to explain it.
This made Ying Zheng a little angry.
He saw the change in Ying Zheng's expression, and sensed the terrifying power.
For a moment, Thor was drenched in cold sweat.
Only then did he realize that his first impression was that Ying Zheng did not have any real power.
But in reality, this person was a vassal king who was not inferior to his father, Genghis Khan!
He quickly said," Your Majesty, Torre was just impatient. Please forgive me. Everything I said is true. If you have any questions, please send someone to investigate. It won't be too late to talk about this later."”
Hearing this.
Only then did Ying Zheng's face look a little better.
He looked at Meng Ao and said,"Quickly investigate and see what's going on."”
"Yes!" Meng Ao nodded. He stood up and went to investigate.
At this moment.
" You must be tired from the long journey," Ying Zheng said to Thor." Go and rest for half a day. I will give you an answer tomorrow."”
He vaguely sensed that something was wrong.
However, he couldn't tell what the problem was.
It seemed that he could only wait for Meng Ao to investigate the truth.
.............
It was night.
In Zhangtai Palace.
Ying Zheng did not leave.
He had been thinking about what had happened today.
He naturally knew Zhe Bie. He was Great General Meng Yuan. Regardless of status or martial cultivation, he was not inferior to Meng Ao.
How was it possible that such a person was killed within the borders of Grand Xia?
Moreover, from Thor's expression today, it was not something unfounded.
Who would kill him?
Why would Meng Yuan suspect him?
The more he thought about it.
Ying Zheng's thoughts became even more chaotic.
This was something that could not be connected at all.
Just as he was at his wit's end.
Meng Ao had returned.
"Great King!" Meng Ao frowned, his expression ugly.
"Have you investigated thoroughly?" Seeing Meng Ao come over, Ying Zheng's face looked much better.
"Your Majesty, this matter is too strange." Meng Ao said.”
"The evil sect started the rebellion in the three northern counties of Great Xia. This should be Meng Yuan's move to tarnish the name of Great Xia.”
"However, when I asked the people, they said that it was the Great Xia army that killed all the heretics.”
"After an in-depth investigation, I discovered that Great Xia had already sent over a thousand people, but they were slaughtered by the evil sect. It's impossible to mobilize more people now.”
"Moreover, there are rumors that Great General Zhe Bie of Mengyuan was killed in one move. To do this, it must be a land immortal.”
"However, I did not find any traces of land immortals, but I found a large number of Qin country's standard armor.”
Hearing this.
Ying Zheng frowned as well.
He felt as if he had fallen into a trap.
Moreover, it didn't seem like it was just a trap. He even took the blame for others!
Thinking about it carefully, if he had received news of Meng Yuan's movements earlier, he would naturally have sent an army over.
After all, if the 3 Northern Desert counties obtained it, they would be able to gain the upper hand in the future war.
But the problem was…
He did not receive this news at all, and he did not send anyone to take action.
"What did Meng Yuan's envoy say?”Ying Zheng asked with a frown.
"Envoy Meng Yuan said that the person who killed Zhe Bie claimed to be the Prime Minister of Great Xia. However, from the information we received, the current Prime Minister of Great Xia is a weak scholar.”At this point, Meng Tian was speechless.
Could it be that the Prime Minister of Great Xia was a land god?
Who would believe this?
Great Xia was only relying on a one-armed Sword God to maintain its reputation. This was something that the seven vassal kings all knew.
Moreover, with the current matter, all the signs pointed to the Qin country, and it was impossible to get away with it.
"Do I really have to give Meng Yuan an explanation?”
Ying Zheng's voice was cold, and his eyes were burning with rage.
Meng Ao sighed and said," It seems that this is the only way. If Qin and Meng Yuan start a war, the other vassal kings will definitely interfere. Li Tang and the Han King are not good people."”
"Right now, Your Majesty has just taken control of the Imperial Court, and Great Qin has yet to completely take control. It will take at least three years before it can start a war without fear of any vassal king.”
"It's a little too early now.”
Ying Zheng stood up, the veins on his forehead bulging.
"I killed Lao Ai, expelled Lu Buwei, and took control of the imperial court. All the generals of Great Qin are famous in the world, and all the soldiers of Great Qin are ferocious.”
"But now, I still have to endure and give Meng Yuan an explanation.”
He looked at Meng Ao." Tomorrow, you will meet the envoys of the Mengyuan. You will agree to whatever conditions they offer."”
"But I will take back what I lost a thousand times over!”
"Your Majesty, you don't have to be so angry. As long as Lord Wu 'an comes out of seclusion, who in the world can stop the tigers and wolves of Great Qin?”Meng Ao said in a deep voice.
Hearing this, the unwillingness in Ying Zheng's heart was slightly reduced.
His cold eyes looked outside the hall." You can leave first. I want to rest."”
