Chapter 587: The Xiongnu Representative Team

~7 min read 1,265 words

Huh?

Everyone was stunned.

Then, everyone couldn't help but burst out laughing.

"Hahahaha!"

"What is going on?"

"What are they doing?"

"Pfft..."

Everyone in the entire Jinghua was clutching their stomachs in laughter, unable to control themselves.

What happened to intimidating Longyan?

What happened to applying pressure?

Just this?

At this moment, the thousand-man Envoy delegation from the Xiongnu Royal Court could be seen, in the sweltering heat, wearing their Grassland attire; they didn't even dare to ride their War Horses, nor did they dare to wear their swords. Every three steps, these thousand people would kneel down once and kowtow. Every nine steps, they would kneel down and prostrate themselves... Although their faces were filled with humiliation, they were decisively kneeling, decisively kowtowing...

"This..."

Gu Jin, who was by Liu Zheng's side, couldn't help but cover her mouth and laugh.

This was just too hilarious, right?

Who among the people of the Longyan Dynasty had ever seen the once-arrogant, fierce, and terrifying Xiongnu Royal Court act so humble? Begging for mercy like this?

Boom!

After the laughter, the whole scene exploded.

For the first time!

This was definitely the first time the people on the scene had seen the Xiongnu act so humble.

Because they were afraid!

In just two days, they had been beaten into fear by the Liangzhou Governor!

Dominating!

"Longyan!"

"Longyan!"

"Long live Longyan!"

"Long live the Emperor!"

"Long live, long live, long, long live the Emperor!"

Everyone knelt and shouted in unison again.

The sound, like a mountain collapsing and a sea roaring, made one's blood boil! This was the pride of Longyan, the glory of Longyan, the dignity of Longyan, and the foundation of Longyan's confidence!

"Good!"

Xie Tianyao, on the Zhuque High Tower, couldn't help but shout, joy welling up in the corners of his eyes.

Trampling the enemy underfoot and ravaging them—who wouldn't love such a feeling?

The Empress, Noble Consorts, Virtuous Consorts, and others by his side also congratulated the Emperor in unison, speaking of subduing the four seas, governing the world with virtue, the barbarians submitting their hearts, Longyan Culture, civilizing the wilderness, and so on and so forth...

Xie Tianyao laughed heartily, noncommittal.

In fact, everyone knew.

This Xiongnu Royal Court was beaten into fear by the Liangzhou Army, beaten into fear by Liu Zheng...

But regardless...

The Liangzhou Governor was also a Longyan person, and also a subject of the Emperor, wasn't he?

And so.

The tense atmosphere people expected did not arrive; instead, such a joyous scene appeared. These Xiongnu also knew that the Grassland they relied on for survival was about to be lost, and at this time, they had to admit defeat.

Such a long Zhuque Street...

They were determined to kneel their way across it, step by step.

The commoners had already begun to shout and cheer, filled with joy.

Xie Tianyao's vanity was satisfied to the greatest extent, and only then did he laugh and wave his hand: "Let them rise! I have already acknowledged this display of filial piety... As for the matter of the Xiongnu Royal Court, I will decide for them."

Once this news was announced, those Xiongnu wept bitterly, offering another round of gratitude and singing the praises of the Longyan Emperor.

Liu Zheng watched, also unable to laugh or cry.

He hadn't expected that the first to appear would be such a comical scene...

Blame himself.

All blame himself.

"Young Master, then we..."

Jiang Xuan was suppressing a laugh beside him.

A sharp glint flashed in Liu Zheng's eyes, and he waved his hand: "Stop fighting, eighty miles north of the border is enough!"

"Yes!"

Gu Jin, listening from the side, had stars in her eyes.

Good heavens...

What was it they said about talking and laughing while the enemy's ships were reduced to ashes? Could this be it? Ever since her perspective was changed by Liu Zheng's artificial ice and snow, the way she looked at Liu Zheng no longer held the previous skepticism... but shock, shock, and more shock!

What kind of treasure of a man was this seemingly delicate and handsome man?

This Xiongnu was forced by him to kneel and kowtow all the way here...

How long had it been since such a person appeared in the Longyan Dynasty?

Sister Manqing...

What truly good luck...

Gu Jin gently bit her own tongue, lost in thought.

"Cowards!"

"Trash!"

"These Xiongnu, they really are..."

At this moment, the various Envoys already prepared at the city gate, seeing this performance by the Xiongnu, were instantly furious, feeling a Bitter Remonstrance at their incompetence.

Wasn't it agreed upon early on that they would bring out their best skills?

To intimidate the Longyan?

To exert pressure?

As a result, just as it started, you, the leader, have already chickened out?

Cowards!

Trash!

"I hope we are the second to appear..."

At this time, a man dressed all in black sneered coldly.

Everyone who heard this stiff voice couldn't help but gasp and look over.

This person was none other than the great general from Wa, Mizuno Masashige!

An unparalleled great general from the Tokugawa Clan of Wa!

This man was a great general under the current Tokugawa Shogunate. Mizuno, this surname came from the head of the Tokugawa maternal relatives. During the Warring States period of Wa, the Mizuno Clan followed the Tokugawa Clan in battle, gradually gaining the trust of the Tokugawa Clan.

Afterwards, Wa entered the Edo Period, and the Emperor became a puppet.

The Tokugawa Clan became the true rulers of Wa, and from then on began the policy of national isolation, which officially started the Edo Period. During the Edo Period, Wa achieved great development. Whether in economy or culture, including agricultural production, farming techniques, and irrigation facilities, there was great progress. In terms of military, it naturally rose accordingly.

This period was precisely the most prosperous era of the Edo Period in Wa.

The base of the Mizuno Clan was in Mutsu, Wa! It was only separated from the Li Dynasty by a strait, so by relying on the military strength of the Mizuno Clan, the Mizuno Clan had already beaten the Li Dynasty into constant retreat. The Wa army of this period was quite active and full of self-confidence.

Mizuno Masashige was a demonic existence in the Li Dynasty who could stop children from crying at night!

"Good!"

"With General Mizuno taking the field, victory is certain!"

"This time, it all depends on General Mizuno!"

Mizuno Masashige laughed heartily: "What Longyan, what Governor Liu, this time, I will let them witness the power of the Mizuno Clan!"

The other Envoys flattered him one after another.

As luck would have it.

At this moment, the Envoy of the Xiongnu Royal Court finally humbly received the approval of the Longyan Emperor Xie Tianyao and was welcomed in. Grand Eunuch Zhou also continued to shout at this time.

"Welcome, the Wa Envoy to the capital!"

"Welcome the Wa Envoy to the capital!"

"The Wa Envoy to the capital!"

The people of this Envoy group were all overjoyed.

It really was the second?

It really was exactly what they were hoping for!

Mizuno Masashige vaulted onto his horse and shouted fiercely: "Let's go!"

Wa?

Liu Zheng heard this, his brows twitched, and he looked carefully.

This country was one he was destined to destroy...

But he was just a little curious...

What kind of character these Wa pirates of this period had.

The Wa representative team.

Appeared.

No one expected it.

This second appearance would give Xie Tianyao a big, ugly surprise.
