Seeing the appearance of the middle-aged man in front of him, Lu Yun was quite confused at the moment, feeling that there was something wrong with his complexion.
Moreover, there was a strange smell emanating from his body, which seemed familiar.
Lu Yun: I feel like I've smelled it somewhere before, but I can't put my finger on it.
Seeing him like this, Bai Xiaoxiao thought he was frightened and whispered quickly, "You have to kneel when you see my father. Don't be stupid, kneel down quickly."
Lu Yun was stunned for a moment, then bent his waist and spoke with a bow.
"Greetings to His Majesty the Great Emperor."
Bai Xingzhi, also known as the Barbarian King, is handsome and powerful.
He looked at Lu Yun in confusion and asked, "Why don't you kneel before me?"
Lu Yun smiled softly: "Your Majesty, I am very strong-willed and have never knelt before anyone in my life."
"If I kneel down, it might have an impact on His Majesty."
Bai Xingzhi was quite confused and asked, "Really? Then please tell me in detail what the impact will be."
Lu Yun spoke eloquently and defended himself, "Your Majesty may not know that I have no father or mother and have been an orphan since I was young.
And there was no one else at home, and I've knelt before."
"But almost everyone I knelt to died, so a fortune teller told me I shouldn't kneel down to others easily."
"Even the emperor, the supreme ruler, can't do that. After all, it's still for the safety of others. Maybe it's my fate?"
Bai Xingzhi was stunned when these words came out. He had never thought that someone could come up with such a shameful excuse, saying that it was his fate...
He also said that he was thinking about other people's lives. What a joke! How is this possible?
But I can't refute it. There is a saying that goes, it is better to believe it than not to believe it.
"Okay, I allow you not to kneel."
"Are you Lu Yu?"
"That's me."
Bai Xingzhi suddenly realized that this must be his daughter's sweetheart. The two hit it off at first sight. Although they had only been together for a short time, they had already fallen deeply in love with each other.
"I never thought you could actually win over so many young talents in this martial arts competition. I never expected that. It seems my daughter has good taste."
"Lu Yu, I heard that you are from the Great Zhou. You can win both the literary and physical battles in the martial arts competition. You must be quite strong."
"I want to ask you this: In your opinion, should the Great Zhou and our Barbarian Kingdom go to war?"
Lu Yun shook his head and explained, “Your Majesty, I don’t think we should go to war. Instead, I think we should coexist peacefully.
You grew up on the grasslands, and you've become accustomed to life on the grasslands. The grasslands are vast and majestic, something we in the Great Zhou don't have."
"So, Your Majesty, even if your Barbarian Nation can conquer our continent, you won't be able to sit still on our territory."
"I think the best way is to have friendly exchanges. It would be better to barter and open up trade to allow resources to circulate."
"At the same time, we can also promote development in various aspects, such as making your Barbarian Country and our Great Zhou as close as one family.
Our people can go to your place, and your people can come to our Great Zhou."
"how?"
For a moment, Emperor Bai Xingzhi really did not expect that his newly recruited son-in-law would have such an idea.
This is indeed unexpected. Is he really just an ordinary person?
His identity is definitely not simple, and he is definitely hiding something, otherwise he would never say such a thing.
Bai Xiaoxiao also thought so. Why did Lu Yu talk so eloquently about the state affairs between the two countries? He seemed to be particularly clear about this matter.
As an ordinary person, why do we have to think so much and care about major issues between countries?
It's impossible that I'm just bored. This is too ridiculous to say, I don't even believe it myself.
"I didn't expect that you, Lu Yu, would actually research this matter. It seems that you usually care a lot about the affairs of your Great Zhou."
"Your Majesty, thank you for your compliment. There's a saying that goes, 'Every man has his share of responsibility for matters of state and family.'"
"We, the little guys, usually pay more attention to these things. In fact, our caravan certainly does not want a war between the two countries.
Because if we go to war, it will be more difficult for us and we won’t make any money.”
"I see." Bai Xingzhi touched his beard, feeling somewhat doubtful, but he did not speak these words directly.
He then asked, "Now that you have become my daughter's son-in-law, you two naturally need to get married."
"So you must become a citizen of our Sun City, a citizen of our Barbarian Country. Are you willing?"
Lu Yun was stunned for a moment, then quickly agreed, "Your Majesty, I figured it out the moment I participated in the martial arts competition.
I am from your Barbarian Country, and this will never change."
"good!"
Bai Xingzhi nodded, feeling quite happy, but suddenly, his face turned red and he started coughing violently, not knowing what was causing it.
The eunuch serving beside him took a look and became anxious, and quickly brought him a cup of tea.
But it didn't help after I drank it.
Seeing this, Lu Yun quickly stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, I have known some medical skills since I was a child. Would you mind letting me take a look?"
"Okay." Bai Xingzhi said lightly with tears in his eyes. These tears were caused by his cough, so naturally his whole body felt uncomfortable.
Lu Yun stepped forward cautiously and, after feeling the pulse, suddenly realized, "Your Majesty, you... you've been poisoned."
"What!"
Bai Xingzhi was extremely surprised. What was going on? How could he be poisoned?
Lu Yun reacted at this moment. No wonder he felt that the smell was familiar. It turned out to be because of the insect!
I'm used to this smell when I'm with the general.
It is really strange that a barbarian king was poisoned by a poisonous insect and was completely unaware of it.
"Isn't this a secret technique unique to the Miao Kingdom? How could it exist in our Barbarian Country? The Miao Kingdom is so far away from us, separated by the Shu Kingdom and the Zhou Kingdom..."
Lu Yun shook his head. "No, Your Majesty, the Miao nation's Gu worms are indeed unique, but they can also bring their own people to your Barbarian nation. Besides, other people can also learn it."
Bai Xingzhi suddenly understood and looked very surprised.
At this moment, Bai Xiaoxiao was also completely shocked. She didn't expect that her father was still poisoned!
This matter was discovered by Master Lu, and no one else noticed it.
That shouldn't be the case. There are the best doctors in the palace... Could it be that they didn't see it?
