Chapter 178 The Great Zhou's Conspiracy
Next day
It took them another half day.
The final three prizes for this Yuedan Conference were determined, and the envoys from the three countries all signed the agreement.
Xie Xunfeng looked at the prize and thought to himself that this prize was definitely the biggest one in history.
"First of all, there is the issue of tariffs, as well as the disputed twelve cities on the border between Xia and Zhou, and the prize of five million taels of gold jointly held by the three countries!"
The Emperor of the Great Zhou looked so happy.
Because they have also planned an open conspiracy!
After confirming the prize.
The Great Zhou suddenly announced that this time, envoys from various countries did not have to stay in the palace waiting for the Yuedan Meeting to begin.
Envoys from various countries were allowed to leave the palace.
Then he lived in the villa arranged by the royal family of the Great Zhou Dynasty.
The purpose is also to take care of them.
The royal family of the Great Zhou Dynasty said in a nice way that their delegation was in the palace and all their actions were restricted.
There is still more than half a month left before the monthly party.
So, let them out.
They can also appreciate the local customs and culture here.
That being said.
But everyone’s heart is as clear as a mirror.
In fact, the people of Da Zhou were there just to facilitate their assassination.
After all, as long as the key personnel in the other camp are assassinated, there will be no threat at the Yuedan Conference.
This will also give them an advantage at the monthly party.
After all, the person died in the palace, so the royal family of the Great Zhou cannot escape the blame.
If they died outside the palace, they would definitely conduct a thorough investigation, but in the end, nothing would be done about it...
…
Xie Shanhe stood on the wall of the imperial city, looking at the two delegations from Beiliang and Daxia walking out of the palace.
Xie Shanhe said sternly, "Yi Ren, have you arranged everything?"
"Father, don't worry. Everything has been arranged!" Xie Yiren revealed a faint smile.
Xie Shanhe nodded slightly, then said, "Where's Princess Yuan? Any news?"
Xie Yiren shook his head and said, "Father, there is no news...it seems like he disappeared out of thin air."
Xie Shanhe said to Xie Yiren, "Go find him. If he's alive, I want him to be found. If he's dead, I want his body to be found!"
Xie Yiren cupped his hands and said, "As you command, Father. Are you worried? Are the rumors true?"
Xie Shanhe said in a cold voice, "Yes, if Wang Yuanyuan disappeared without anyone noticing... it means that she might have really used the Anbu. Only the Anbu can rescue people from the palace without anyone noticing. This also explains why you guys set up a trap and still let her run away... Wang Yuanyuan has been pretending all these years... "
"Father, it's all my fault for not thinking it through!" Xie Yiren bowed and said humbly.
Xie Shanhe waved his hand and said, "It has nothing to do with you. I have always been hoping for the best... If I really can't find him, I will keep an eye on that fool Xie Xunfeng. Wang Yuanyuan must have escaped this time to help this fool."
Xie Yiren bowed and agreed.
…
After the Daxia delegation left the city, they were directly arranged on Street No. 1, not far from the imperial palace.
The mansions built on No. 1 Street are all very elegant.
Moreover, these are the places where the powerful and wealthy gather.
It can also be said that it is the place with the best public security besides the imperial palace.
Arrived at the gate of a mansion.
The plaque at the entrance of the mansion has been changed to "The Great Xia Kingdom's Envoy's Mansion".
Guan Chong, Wen Qingrao and the others were like birds out of a cage, they were extremely happy.
Yan Song, however, found Xie Xunfeng with a worried look on his face.
"Xie Jizi, how can you still be so relaxed... They drove us out of the palace, which was obviously to attack us. We only have more than ten guards, and they only have six guards. If someone really wants to kill and silence us , these guards can't defend at all. I know that you and General Shi Yan are very skilled, but there are so many people in our delegation. You can't always have personal guards."
Xie Xunfeng smiled and said to Yan Song, "Master Yan, I was just about to come look for you. Since you are here, come in..."
Looking at Xie Xunfeng's expression, Yan Song said to him, "Xie Zhizi, do you have a perfect plan already..."
Xie Xunfeng nodded, then poured a cup of tea for Yan Song.
At this time, Jing Fei had already called all the core members of the delegation over.
They are just Old Man Wen, Wen Qingrao, Guan Chong, and Xiao Yiran.
After everyone came over, they looked at Xie Xunfeng curiously.
Xie Xunfeng couldn't help but smile and said, "I believe that although everyone has come out, they still have some worries in their hearts. It is obvious that the people of Da Zhou must have evil intentions in letting us out this time. Therefore, for the sake of everyone's safety, I am going to give everyone a life-saving artifact!"
As he spoke, Xie Xunfeng clapped his hands, and Jing Fei came in with two Da Xia guards carrying a large wooden box.
Then the large wooden box was opened.
The wooden box contains small wooden boxes.
Xie Xunfeng took out one and placed it on the table.
"This is a magical tool ! I wanted to give it to you before, but then I forgot about it."
"A life-saving artifact?" Yan Song said as he looked at the wooden box with a hint of doubt.
After Xie Xunfeng opened the wooden box, everyone gathered around him.
Then he took out a homemade flintlock rifle from the wooden box.
It was obvious that no one had ever seen this thing.
"What is this? Can this small piece of wood save my life?" Yan Song asked with a hint of surprise.
Xie Xunfeng tried it out in front of everyone.
Accompanied by a bang and the sound of firing.
But everyone present was shocked, and the vase that Xie Xunfeng was facing also broke into pieces.
"This thing is called Sui Fire Gun. Its advantage is that it is small and can be used by anyone. You can use it by lightly pulling the trigger... Even when facing some experts, you can shoot them from a long distance..." Xie Xunfeng introduced the use of this gun.
Then, he asked Xiao Yiran to try it again.
Under Xie Xunfeng's guidance, Xiao Yiran was soon able to hit the target with every shot at close range.
"It's really a magical weapon! Brother, with this magical weapon, why do I need to practice martial arts... Brother... give me one... give me one..." Guan Chong said excitedly.
Xie Xunfeng said to Guan Chong unhappily, "This firearm can only fire three shots in a row... after three shots, you need to reload it. It can only be used in emergencies! For small-scale assassinations. If you rely too much on it , you may not even know how you died..."
Guan Chong smiled awkwardly, then said to Xie Xunfeng, "Brother... I was just kidding."
These fire lances were made by Xie Xunfeng himself, but since the casting technology and level as well as the materials of that era were so poor, it was not easy to make such fire lances.
Although it is a bit crude, as he said, it can still play a big role in small-scale assassinations and is sufficient for self-defense.
