~3 min read 453 words

But this was not the end.

Immediately following!

Another voice rang out.

"Great Qi Emperor's Special Envoy Tian Ying, for the sake of the interdependence and shared destiny of Qi and Qian, requests an audience with His Majesty, the Emperor of Da Qian!!!"

The Qi Kingdom envoy Tian Ying, in a refined green robe, rode over on horseback, wearing a warm smile, his voice clear yet extremely penetrating.

In an instant.

The Qi envoy's followers also shouted in unison.

"Qi Emperor's Special Envoy Tian Ying, for the sake of the brotherly nations of Qi and Qian and the eternal consolidation of our alliance, requests an audience with His Majesty, the Emperor of Da Qian!!!"

Hum!

The people of Changancheng felt their minds buzzing, as if struck by a heavy blow.

The Qi Kingdom also sent envoys?

Within a single day.

Envoys from three kingdoms arrived in Changancheng together!

And all of them were holding high the banner of "peace"!

Beating gongs and drums, attracting everyone's attention!

Zhu Que Street was silent for a moment, and then it boiled over!

The three kingdoms made moves simultaneously; what they sought was definitely not a simple request for peace!

Beneath this seemingly calm sea, monstrous undercurrents were clearly surging!

Soon.

This news, carrying the heaviness of an impending storm, rushed into the Imperial Palace!

When Wu Zhao stood before the altar and heard all of this.

Her expression was extremely ugly.

If the common people could see it clearly, how could she not?

Behind this peace was a poisoned blade!

"Have you verified their identities?"

Wu Zhao asked.

"Replying to Your Majesty, the Embroidered Uniform Guard went immediately; their credentials bear the Imperial Seal, no different from before. Their identities are confirmed beyond doubt!" Li Long reported.

Yan Zheng stood out and said, "Your Majesty, you must not see them!"

"These three envoy missions arriving together in one day suggests they harbor evil intentions and seek something great. The enemy is in the dark while we are in the light; we should avoid their sharp edge!"

For a time.

Some agreed, some opposed.

Wu Zhao's eyes flickered rapidly.

She took a deep breath and said, "We can avoid them for a moment, but not for a lifetime!"

"They are coercing public opinion and holding high the banner of hypocrisy. If I retreat, where will Da Qian's dignity remain?"

Wu Zhao's gaze swept over the officials, and she said again, "Since they have laid this trap, whether I see them or not, the blade will fall! Officials, follow me into the hall!"

"I would like to see what kind of tricks they are playing!"

Wu Zhao flicked her sleeves heavily and headed straight for the Jin Luandian.
