Chapter 559 Ming Dynasty: The Emperor Guards the National Gate (48)
Wei Zhongxian looked at the crowd that surrounded him, without a trace of fear on his face.
"When two countries have diplomatic relations, they don't kill envoys. What does this mean, Great Khan?"
Huang Taiji laughed in anger, "You will soon know what this Khan means."
As he said this, Huang Taiji waved his hand and had Wei Zhongxian taken away.
—
Amid the noisy sound of war drums, Huang Taiji led the Later Jin soldiers to the front of Ningyuan City.
Seeing Zhiyu wearing a bright yellow dragon robe in Ningyuan City, Huang Taiji raised his hand and ordered someone to bring Wei Zhongxian over.
"Emperor of the Ming Dynasty, you wrote to my Khan, asking for peace, yet you sent an old eunuch to provoke me."
"These past few days, I haven't seen any sincerity in the Ming Dynasty's quest for peace. Since the Ming Dynasty isn't sincere in seeking peace, don't blame me for being rude."
As he spoke, Huang Taiji winked at the soldiers around him, and the soldiers immediately drew their swords, ready to kill Wei Zhongxian.
"block……………"
At the critical moment, an arrow flew through the air and hit the soldier's sword steadily. The soldier only felt his arm numb for a moment, and the sword in his hand was blown away by the arrow.
The sudden change made Wei Zhongxian, who was almost killed, feel relieved. Fortunately, the emperor kept his word, otherwise he would have died under the sword of the barbarians today.
Seeing his men's swords being knocked away by arrows, Huang Taiji felt a chill on his back and looked in surprise at the bright yellow figure on Ningyuan City who was easily throwing the bow to his follower.
Wasn't the legendary new Ming emperor a weak woman? Why was she so good at archery?
If the arrow she had just shot had not hit the knife but his head, would he still be alive now?
After Zhiyu threw the longbow to the people around him, Huang Taiji, who was standing in the court, said with a smile: "Two countries should be magnanimous in their negotiations."
"The Khan must not kill people out of anger just because the negotiations failed."
"I have always wanted to meet you, but no matter who I sent to invite you, you, Khan, never came."
"In desperation, I have sent the 9,900-year-old of the Ming Dynasty to ask the Khan for help."
"He is nine thousand nine hundred years old. If he said something foolish that offended the Khan, please forgive him."
"Now that the Khan has arrived, why don't we discuss peace talks between our two countries?"
Hearing Zhiyu's tone, which was neither light nor heavy, Huang Taiji's face looked extremely ugly.
He pointed at the bound Wei Zhongxian and said, "Emperor of the Great Ming, your so-called invitation is to send some insignificant people to anger me?"
Zhiyu raised an eyebrow, "Why is it irrelevant?"
"The one I sent is the most powerful minister of the Ming Dynasty, nine thousand nine hundred years old? How can you, Great Khan, say he is insignificant?"
As he spoke, Zhiyu smiled at Wei Zhongxian, who was tied up at the foot of the city, and said, "Sir Wei, perhaps the people of the Later Jin Dynasty don't understand your current status in the Ming Dynasty. Please explain it to them."
"We can't let them misunderstand me."
Looking at Zhiyu with a smile on her face on the city wall, Wei Zhongxian felt his scalp tingling. If he couldn't explain well at this moment, he was afraid that he would lose his life.
Facing Huang Taiji's scrutinizing gaze, Wei Zhongxian feigned composure and said with a wry smile to Zhiyu on the city wall, "Your Majesty, I have read very little and I don't know how to explain this."
Hearing Wei Zhongxian's words, Zhiyu on the city wall laughed out loud, "Sir Wei, this one sentence of yours is worth a thousand."
"I think the Khan has already understood your status in the Ming Dynasty."
