"I've heard that the Great Xia Dynasty is incredibly wealthy..." The Kushan envoy said, but then realized that Li Fengnian didn't seem interested in the matter.
"The King of Northern Liang".
"We have brought a large number of gifts for the King of Northern Liang this time."
"Someone, bring these gifts up here."
The leader of the special envoy clapped his hands.
Soon, a dozen or so muscular, dark-skinned, curly-haired, barefoot Kushan people carried up several large wooden crates.
Li Fengnian immediately became interested when he saw the wooden boxes.
"You're too kind, Special Envoy." Li Fengnian's face beamed like a chrysanthemum.
"Open the wooden box."
At a command, the several huge wooden crates were opened one after another.
Soon, an unpleasant odor filled the palace hall.
A wooden box was filled with ivory.
As the King of Northern Liang, Li Fengnian was accustomed to seeing ivory.
These ivory tusks were nothing special to him, and they were small and not made into any ivory products.
What Li Fengnian found even more unbearable was that the ivory was stained with blood.
This indicates that the ivory tusks were recently cut off.
Soon, all the boxes were opened.
The remaining boxes were filled with all sorts of spices and curry.
"What is this?" asked Prime Minister Li Chungang, who was standing next to Li Fengnian.
"These are spices and curry. With these things, you can make the most delicious food in the world."
After he finished speaking, the envoy walked to the last box and opened it.
The box was filled to the brim with something that looked like poop.
Moreover, these things are not dry stools; they look like runny stools.
"What is this thing?" Li Fengnian and Li Chungang lost interest immediately upon seeing the thing that looked like runny excrement.
"This is our curry rice. Your Highness, the King of Beiliang, please have a taste."
"Get all of these things out of here. I don't want to see them for even a moment longer."
"promise……"
"Throw all these bastards out of Beiliang. From now on, they shall never be allowed to set foot in Beiliang again."
Soon, the Imperial Guards rushed over.
"Everyone get out of here before we have to take action."
The Kushan envoys were immediately enraged.
“You little Northern Liang dare to be so arrogant in front of us.”
Don't refuse a toast only to suffer the consequences.
"We, the Kushans, have deployed 300,000 troops on the border."
"If you dare to lay a finger on us, our 300,000-strong army will attack and leave you with nothing."
Li Fengnian was furious upon hearing this: "You bunch of Indians, how dare you be so arrogant in front of me, the King of Beiliang? I can wipe you out right now."
"Hahaha...you give it a try."
I gave you face, but you don't appreciate it.
"Li Fengnian, we originally intended to deal with the Great Xia Dynasty this time. Since you don't know what's good for you, then we'll take care of your Northern Liang as well."
The people of the Kushan Empire have always been arrogant.
They take this disgusting curry around and give it away, shamelessly claiming it's the best treasure in the world.
They've always been ineffective in combat, yet they've caused trouble everywhere.
And he considered himself the greatest in the world.
"A mere 300,000 troops dare to act so arrogantly in my Northern Liang?" Li Fengnian sneered.
To his surprise, the Kushan envoy Singh burst into laughter.
"Throughout my journey, I have traveled through Tibet, Western Xia, and Dali."
None of these countries are not afraid of us.
I'm just letting you know.
"If you don't want to cooperate with us, then you're doomed."
Li Fengnian stood up: "You're threatening me. I hate being threatened the most."
Just then, Qi Dangguo, who was standing nearby, quickly said, "Your Majesty, please calm down. We do not yet know the strength of the enemy. Do not act rashly."
Wang Tianyou: "Your Majesty, we have always maintained close relations with Western Xia and Dali. If these two countries are also subdued by them, we should be careful."
"Take them down first." Li Fengnian waved his hand.
These dozen or so Kushan envoys were taken away.
Li Fengnian frowned deeply.
"Tell me, what kind of country is the Kushan Empire?"
Wang Tianyou: "We don't know anything about this country. We've never heard of it before. These people are all dark-skinned, but they are completely different from the Kunlun slaves."
They reeked.
Qi Dangguo: "This matter should be asked of the Court of State Ceremonies, they are in charge of foreign affairs."
"Go and fetch the Minister of the Court of State Ceremonies for me. I have never heard of such a country before."
Half an hour later.
Li Xuan, the Minister of the Court of State Ceremonies, knelt respectfully before Li Fengnian, the King of Northern Liang.
"Today, the Kushan envoy acted arrogantly in front of me, and that bastard even presented me with several boxes of gifts."
"You're knowledgeable and experienced, and in charge of foreign affairs. Tell me, what kind of country is the Kushan Empire?"
Li Fengnian pointed to the boxes of things.
Li Xuan walked up to the offerings.
"The Kushan Empire is located in the southwest, and it is said that their population is over 100 million."
The moment Li Xuan uttered those words, everyone was stunned.
The entire population of Northern Liang was less than 20 million.
The other country has hundreds of millions of people.
Even if only 10% of this population of over 100 million joins the military, that's still 100 million.
