Chapter 239 Why did they withdraw their troops?
At this moment, a burst of hurried footsteps suddenly came from outside, as if someone was running from afar. Then, the servant outside the door opened the curtain -
"Your Majesty, the envoy from Yue has arrived!"
Envoy from Yue State!
The expressions of several generals changed.
Nan Yan, who was standing behind them, suddenly felt heavy-hearted.
The envoy from Yue State has arrived!
It was noon at this time, and it was obvious that he wanted to ask about the demands made by Xiahou Jiu during the peace talks yesterday.
She couldn't help but clench her hands, and her palms were full of cold sweat.
Zhu Feng raised his eyes, and his hawk-like eyes immediately searched Nan Yan, who was standing behind the crowd with a pale face, and the sinister look in his eyes deepened.
He asked someone to put on his clothes, and at this time, Ye Zheng and Jian Ruocheng also walked in. They saluted each other with the generals. Jian Ruocheng immediately saw Nan Yan standing in the corner.
His eyes flickered, as if he understood something.
At this time, Zhu Feng waved to both sides of them, and they stood on both sides of the table, making way for the door.
A middle-aged man holding a scepter slowly walked in from outside.
Nan Yan stood behind Jian Ruocheng and looked up carefully. She saw that the envoy was dressed in gorgeous clothes and had a long beard. However, his expression seemed very fawning, which was far inferior to the elegant and gentlemanly Jian Ruocheng yesterday.
However, his arrival made people a little nervous.
The envoy bowed and said, "Greetings to His Majesty the Emperor."
Zhu Feng only raised his eyelids, looked at him coldly, and said, "What is the important matter that brings the envoy of your country here?"
Nan Yan felt her heart beating like a drum.
She didn't even dare to look up, and could only lower her head. She heard the envoy say, "I have come to present a letter of credence to His Majesty the Emperor. This letter contains the matters concerning the peace negotiations that His Majesty sent yesterday to discuss with our country."
“…!?”
Nan Yan's heart trembled slightly, like a little rabbit feeling something strange, and slowly poked her head out of the hole. She raised her head carefully again.
Sure enough, I saw the envoy presenting the letter of credence with both hands.
Ye Zheng immediately stepped forward, took the letter, and presented it to Zhu Feng. When he opened it, Zhu Feng's face remained expressionless. He only nodded slightly and said, "Very good."
It seems that what was written in the letter was indeed what Jian Ruocheng had agreed upon with them before, and there was no change.
Zhu Feng closed the letter and asked, "Where is your general?"
"Here is the letter from the credential. The general is ready to return home."
“……!”
The people around were shocked again, and their eyes widened.
Nan Yan couldn't believe it and looked at Zhu Feng in surprise, who remained unmoved.
What's going on?
The envoy came and presented the letter of credence directly, and the terms should not have been changed. Xiahou Jiu had already withdrawn his troops.
So—what about what they agreed on yesterday?
Don’t we still have to ask them for people?
Except for Zhu Feng, everyone in the tent showed surprise. He waved his hand calmly and said, "The envoy has worked hard. Come, please let the envoy rest."
The messenger bowed and was led out.
As soon as he went out, everyone rushed up and yelled at Zhu Feng, almost overturning the tent.
"Your Majesty, what's going on?"
"Why did they withdraw their troops?"
"Are you not going to fight anymore?"
