"When you see me, you must kneel!"
Six words.
The originally harmonious atmosphere instantly dropped to freezing point.
Ji Mu's face looked a little ugly. He looked up at Ying Wuque's expression and found that he looked indifferent. He even looked at him with his nose down. It was obvious that he was not joking.
then.
His expression became even uglier, and he clasped his hands and said, "King Gan! I am an envoy of the Emperor of Zhou, not a minister of Gan. How can I kneel down?"
"oh……"
Ying Wuque jokingly said: "You are not a Gan minister! If you are not a Gan minister, why did you come to our Gan country? Go back!"
Jimu: "???"
I am an envoy. What else should I do if I don't come to your country?
He finally realized that Ying Wuque had no intention of talking properly.
But there is no way, because the initiative is in their hands.
But even so, he felt extremely angry.
He snorted coldly and said, "All under heaven belongs to the king, and all the people in the land are his subjects! The King of Gan is one of the princes in the world, and he is a subject of the Emperor of Zhou. You and I are both subjects of Zhou, so why can't I follow the Emperor's order and come to Gan's land?"
"Oh... Is the whole world the king's land?"
Ying Wuque's smile became even more playful: "So, Han is also the land of your Zhou emperor? Your land was attacked, why didn't the Zhou emperor send troops to guard his own land?"
Ji Mu: "..."
This is a slap in the face.
The Zhou emperor could defend the land of Han, but could he do it?
This new King was clearly showing off his muscles, but Ji Mu had no way to stop him.
Ever since Haojing was conquered by the Quanrong in the past, the Zhou royal family has lost its real authority and has barely managed to save face after the dualization of politics and sacrifices.
However, after the failed battle to pacify the demons and regain political discourse power, it seemed that no one wanted to give them face anymore.
There is nothing we can do about this.
In the past, I was content to be a mascot. Everyone smiled when they saw me and it felt quite festive.
Later I found out that this mascot was taking tonic medicine to grow muscles in an attempt to be your father. Who could feel happy about this?
The most embarrassing thing is that I failed in my attempt to be a father.
When Ji Mu received the mission from the King of Zhou, he felt that this mission was difficult. He had no military threat capability at all. How could he stop the Gan army from attacking Han?
But he just felt it was difficult, but he didn't expect Ying Wuque to be so rude.
He took a deep breath and said loudly: "The Zhou Dynasty has long stopped interfering in the political affairs of other countries, so why would it send troops to defend the land of Han..."
“So that’s how it is!”
Ying Wuque interrupted directly: "Then you can stand, but you'd better be sober. If you say anything to ask the Gan army to stop, you'll have to get out of the hall!"
He was a little nervous at first.
They were afraid that South Korea would put up a stubborn resistance and waste the best time for the country.
But now that the Zhou emperor's envoys have come, it means that Han can no longer hold on. Moreover, the fact that the Han envoys did not come, but the Zhou envoys did, further shows that Yan, Wei and Han have a crisis of trust in the Zhou emperor.
That being the case.
Why don't you take a higher stance?
Ji Mu's expression became uglier.
The more he feels, the happier Ying Wuque feels.
You've been beaten to the point of asking for peace, so why are you still pretending to be so high and mighty?
Ji Mu was so angry that his breathing was shaking. He didn't expect Ying Wuque to be so stubborn. The Emperor of Zhou was not his father yet, but he wanted to be the Emperor of Zhou's father first.
I said half a word to make Gan Jun stop, and then you threw me out?
If I don’t talk about this, what else can I say?
Ji Mu asked with a sullen face, "Does the King have to do this?"
Ying Wuque sneered and asked, "Do you really have to talk about South Korea?"
Ji Mu: "..."
He was silent for a long time, then nodded and said, "What if I must tell you?"
Ying Wuque: "Then kneel down!"
Ji Mu asked again: "What if I don't kneel?"
Ying Wuque: "Then just hold it in!"
Ji Mu: "..."
He really wanted to ask another question, what if I were standing and still wanted to speak?
After thinking it over, he still didn't say it out loud, because that would be asking for humiliation.
The scene was a bit awkward.
Ji Mu stood there, his expression was extremely conflicted. He knew that the dignity of the Zhou royal family was like a thin piece of inferior porcelain placed right in front of his feet. As long as he knelt down, it would shatter into pieces and could never be put back together again.
But if you don't kneel, you will return empty-handed.
If you fail to complete the task assigned by the Zhou Emperor, you will be scolded.
Then……
He figured it out.
You gave me such a difficult task, and you scolded me when I failed to complete it. How can I leave you with any dignity?
Kneeling doesn’t matter who you are.
The Zhou emperor could kneel, but Ying Wuque couldn’t?
"thump!"
Ji Mu knelt down immediately: "I, the minister of Zhou, Ji Mu, pay my respects to His Majesty King Gan!"
Ying Wuque suddenly had a brilliant smile on his face and waved his hand: "Stand up! What are you doing here this time?"
Ji Mu took a deep breath and said loudly: "Your Majesty, please withdraw your troops..."
Ying Wuque waved his hand and interrupted, "No!"
Jimu: "???"
He was incoherent.
You made me kneel.
I knelt down.
And then you said no before I even finished speaking?
Ji Mu could no longer hold back: "Your Majesty, King Gan and Han are both vassal states appointed by the emperor. They should be on good terms with each other. Why do we have to resort to violence?"
Ying Wuque sneered: "When Wei and Han surrounded and annihilated 10,000 elite soldiers of our country, you didn't speak up for justice. Didn't the Emperor of Zhou say that he would not interfere in the affairs of other countries? Why are you taking sides now?"
