Following closely behind were some Hu people, who brought a lot of high-end things.
What followed was some remote small country that the old emperor himself had never heard of.
There were even some people from further away who couldn’t even speak Chinese, and they were chattering away in a way that no one could understand.
"Which country are you from?" asked the old emperor.
“*&¥*(……)” It’s a bunch of jumbled jumbles that I can’t understand.
The old emperor took the gift list handed over by Chen Decai.
"Hippopotamus? What country is this? Are there many hippopotamus in the country?"
[Hahahaha, Hippo Country, what a weird name, but what it said is really unpleasant, it's damn English.]
[The people from Hippopotamus came from the Western Regions. I heard from the Western Regions that the Central Plains is very prosperous, so these people came here on behalf of Hippopotamus. The gifts they sent, uh, just ignore them. Anyway, the old emperor doesn't care much about the gifts they sent.]
Old Emperor: Actually, I still care a little. Of course, it doesn’t matter if you don’t give me expensive gifts, but it would be better if you are willing to give me expensive gifts.
The people of Hippopotamus found that no one present could understand what they were saying, and finally they had to leave at the signal of the ceremonial officer.
[The people of Hippo Country are pretty awesome, and have a strong sense of adventure. They have traveled to almost all of the continent, and now they have come to Daye. They are studying painting, and they draw wherever they go.]
Many of Daye's officials quickly noticed something different.
So those few people just now also drew the border areas of Daye, right?
The General of Cavalry gulped down a large bowl of wine, and when he opened his mouth, the strong smell of alcohol filled his nose.
"It's okay. They can't go to important military locations, so it's okay to paint some frontier landscapes."
[Hey, system, look, this world has already made a telescope. Those guys also know that some places cannot be entered, so they use the telescope to check the general situation of the places that cannot be entered.]
The cavalry general, who was full of confidence just now, stopped drinking, wiped his mouth and whispered in confusion: "Telescope? What is that? Can it see the appearance of places that you can't go to? It's so awesome."
Both the old emperor and the prince were very curious about what this thing was.
Since you are curious, you need to know what it looks like.
The old emperor gave the Dragon Scale Guards a warning.
Soon, those people from the Hippopotamus Kingdom disappeared quietly at the banquet.
After the banquet, the old emperor did not go to rest.
[Ahhhhh, I thought I could go home early. ]
At this time, the system, which had been silent all this time, spoke.
[Host, the old emperor is in his sixties or seventies, which is the prime of his life, while you are only in your early twenties but are about to die.]
"snort."
Shen Zhiyi decided to ignore that stupid system.
A system that can't even fix bugs is not worthy of talking to her.
"Come, change your clothes and follow me to meet some people."
Several people took off their official uniforms and changed into casual clothes, then followed the old emperor to a room in the courtyard.
[So mysterious, what's going on? ]
Zhang Sheren didn't know either, he looked at Shen Zhiyi curiously.
[My goodness, why did the old emperor kidnap those people from the Hippo Kingdom? Didn’t he say that he would not kill the envoys? What’s going on now? ]
The old emperor took it for granted that those people were not envoys, so what would be the harm in beheading them?
Several people entered a room. At this time, the high-nosed people from the Hippopotamus Kingdom were tied up like hairy crabs, and there were several door gods standing next to them.
Shen Zhiyi stood behind the old emperor, and for some reason he always felt that the man in the Dragon Scale Guard uniform guarding the door was familiar.
An Jiu didn't dare to move. If Shen Zhiyi found out, he would be laughed at to death by his colleagues for the rest of his life.
[I remember now, this guy seems to be the one named An Jiu in the Dragon Scale Guard. He has always had a crush on An Qi, but because he couldn't beat him, he didn't dare to confess.]
An Qi, who was about to hand something to the old emperor at this time, was a woman with ordinary looks and a reserved aura.
An Qi turned his head to look at An Jiu. At this time, An Jiu's ears had turned red and there was a flash of surprise in his eyes.
What follows is panic and regret.
You know, the Dragon Scale Guards are not allowed to have feelings. The old emperor believes that the Dragon Scale Guards, who work specifically for him, cannot have personal feelings, so he is determined to put an end to office romances.
【Ahhhh, this is so sweet.】
At this moment, Shen Zhiyi had no time to care about where he was or what he was doing. His eyes were fixed on An Qi and An Jiu in the surveillance video.
[An Qi would never have thought that every time he was injured during a mission, the medicine that suddenly appeared on his desk was given by An Jiu.]
[An Qi would never have thought that the snail in his room was actually An Jiu.]
[An Qi's personality is very similar to mine. To put it nicely, the style of his room is casual, but to put it bluntly, it's a doghouse.]
An Qi smiled awkwardly.
I am so busy doing tasks every day that I don’t have time to clean the room.
Unexpectedly, I came back one day to find that the room was very clean and all my belongings were there.
[At first, An Qi thought that the room was haunted by ghosts, so he found a Taoist priest. The Taoist priest said that it was not a ghost, but just a land fairy who liked to clean diligently. ]
Shen Zhiyi looked at this and held back his laughter.
[No, hahahaha, you big shot, you just believe it. ]
[Do you know that the Taoist priest was hired by An Jiu? He gave him one tael of silver.]
Dark Seven: ...
It really takes a lot of effort.
An Jiu turned his head away, his mind was full of regret. If Shen Zhiyi had not been here, he would have already knelt down to the old emperor at this moment.
He was the one who had a crush on An Qi, and it had nothing to do with An Qi.
[Oh, based on my many years of experience in CP, this Dark Seven must also like Dark Nine. ]
An Jiu: ???
My heartbeat suddenly stopped for a moment and then started beating wildly again.
His mind was full of it at the moment.
What! An Qi actually likes him too!
Is there anything more joyful in this world than this?
In the air, the two people's eyes met and collided.
Soon, both of them lowered their heads, and the tips of their ears were rosy.
No one cares about An Da's life or death.
Damn, I didn’t expect that I would have two love-sick people.
He looked up at the old emperor cautiously. Who would have thought that the other party would actually follow Shen Zhiyi to ship CP?
No, Your Majesty, where has your stern attitude of rejection gone?
[Alas, it is a pity that the old emperor rejected office romances. This pair of lovers will eventually be cruelly separated by the old emperor.]
The old emperor restrained his expression when he was called out.
Look, after being told this by Shen Zhiyi, I almost forgot about the important matter.
He nodded at the Dark Seven and Dark Nine.
Implicit meaning: Make time to come and see him in the evening.
An Qi and An Jiu immediately looked ready to die.
