Chapter 350 Why Did You Mess with Him?

Ning Chen and his party, led by Fu Lu, came to a magnificent courtyard.

Zunwu Hall!

This Zunwu Hall is where Wu State receives envoys, similar to Daxuan's Siyi Hall.

Zunwu Hall has two doors.

One main door and one side door.

The main door is for people to leave.

The side door is for livestock and mules to leave.

Fu Lu smiled like a Maitreya Buddha and pointed to the side door, "Everyone, please!"

Shen Min and others' faces suddenly darkened.

Asking them to go through the side door is clearly a naked humiliation.

Everyone looked at Ning Chen.

Ning Chen looked calm, with a faint smile on his face.

He looked at Fu Lu, "We are guests, how can we walk in front of Lord Fu? Lord Fu, please go first!"

Fu Lu's expression froze slightly.

"Marquis Ning is a distinguished guest, so we must treat him with courtesy... Marquis, please go first!"

Ning Chen nodded slightly, "Okay, then I won't be polite!"

Fu Lu and other Wu officials looked at Ning Chen and others with a playful look on their faces.

"Go!!!"

Ning Chen clamped his legs against the horse's belly and gently pulled the reins.

Diao Chan neighed and raised her hooves high towards Fu Lu and others.

Fu Lu and others' faces changed drastically, and they dodged to both sides in panic, fearing that they would be stepped on by the horse's hooves.

Diao Chan's front hooves landed on the ground, and she walked through the Wu officials with a cheerful pace.

"Follow me!"

Ning Chen said lightly.

Pan Yucheng and others reacted and hurriedly rode their horses to catch up.

Ning Chen was too lazy to even get off the horse, and rushed in through the main gate.

Pan Yucheng and others followed closely behind.

A group of people entered through the main gate in a mighty manner.

After Fu Lu and others came to their senses, their faces were ashen.

Too arrogant!

Riding into the hall on horseback, this is a naked provocation and humiliation.

The horse's hoof seemed to step on their faces every time, making their skin hot.

Li Ruishi frowned and looked at Fu Lu, "His Majesty repeatedly reminded us that this is a peace talk and we should treat each other with courtesy... What does Lord Fu mean? Do you want to disrupt the peace talk?"

Fu Lu's eyes flashed with cruelty, but he smiled and said:

"Lord Li, what you said is serious. Since it is a peace talk, it is a dispute over interests... I just want to give the envoy of Daxuan a warning and strive for greater interests for my Wu country."

Li Ruishi said in a deep voice: "Is Lord Fu taking it for granted? That's Ning Chen."

Fu Lu smiled and said: "I was rash... I won't do it again later!"

"Lord Li, calm down, let's go in too!"

Li Ruishi didn't say anything more? Turning around and preparing to go in, he heard a clang.

All the officials of Wu country were stunned!

The main gate was closed.

The officials of Wu State looked at each other, their faces gradually darkened.

Fu Lu said angrily: "Open the door!"

A guard stepped forward and tried to push the door open, but he used all his strength and the door did not move at all.

"Sir, it is bolted from the inside."

Fu Lu's face twitched.

The officials of Wu State were furious.

The main gate was closed and bolted from the inside... If you want to go in, you can only go through the side door.

They can't tear down the main gate, can they?

It's more embarrassing to tear down the lintel by yourself than to go through the side door.

Besides, the plaque on the main gate was written by the empress herself, who dares to bump into it?

Fu Lu couldn't laugh at all, his face was so gloomy that water was about to drip out.

This is good, I wanted to humiliate the Great Xuan Envoy... but now I have made myself unable to get off the tiger.

The officials of Wu State looked at Fu Lu, each with a displeased look... You are so smart, why did you provoke Ning Chen?

Forget it if the people don't know about Ning Chen's deeds.

As a minister of rites, you should know Ning Chen well... Is Ning Chen a good person?

This time is a peace talk, for the peaceful development of the two countries... Are you bored? Why do you make things difficult for the delegation?

Now it's good, you've shot yourself in the foot.

In the yard, Feng Qizheng and others stared at the side door.

"Ning Chen, do you think they will come in through the side door?"

Ning Chen was about to speak, but Chen Chongjian smiled and said, "If they don't go through the side door, they can only tear down their own front door, which is even more embarrassing."

Shen Min smiled and looked at Ning Chen, "Your Majesty is wise, and there is nothing wrong with sending you here."

Li Hongzhuo frowned and said in a deep voice: "We are here for peace talks this time. Isn't this too much?"

Everyone looked unhappy.

Wasn't it the Wu people who made things difficult for us first? Why is this old guy so ungrateful?

Ning Chen glanced at Li Hongzhuo, "Lord Li is right. We are here for peace talks, and we really shouldn't go too far...Lord Li, to express our apologies, could you please open the main door?"

Seeing Ning Chen listen to him so well, Li Hongzhuo nodded with satisfaction.

He walked over and opened the main door.

The moment the door opened, Li Hongzhuo felt something was wrong.

Will the Wu officials think that he closed the door? And will they hate him?

He turned around and squinted at Ning Chen.

Ning Chen looked at him with a smile and said, "Lord Li, open the door quickly, please come in...You are really good, do you really treat this place as your own backyard?"

Li Hongzhuo's face suddenly became extremely ugly.

When he noticed the look in the eyes of the Wu officials, his eyes were about to spit fire...He realized that he had been tricked by Ning Chen.

He smiled awkwardly, "Lords, please come in!"

Ning Chen smiled and said, "Lord Li, this is the Wu Kingdom's Zunwu Hall, not our Daxuan's Siyi Hall. Why do you act like the host?"

"We are guests, how can we become the host?"

Li Hongzhuo's old face was so gloomy that water was about to drip out.

Fu Lu and others walked in.

All the Wu Kingdom officials snorted or looked unkindly when they passed by Li Hongzhuo.

Ning Chen turned over and got off his horse and greeted him, "Lords, I'm really sorry... Our Lord Li treats this place as his own backyard."

"I apologize to you on his behalf, please forgive me."

Fu Lu smiled but his face was not smiling. They were not stupid... Daxuan was led by Ning Chen this time. Without Ning Chen's approval, how could Li Hongzhuo dare to do this?

"Lord Ning and you have worked hard all the way. I will arrange a place for you to stay first."

They wanted to give the Daxuan delegation a warning, but they ended up being slapped in the face... It's better to quickly turn the page on such a shameful thing.

Ning Chen and others were arranged to the west courtyard of Zunwu Hall.

"Everyone, take a rest. I have ordered people to prepare a banquet. I will entertain you later!"

Fu Lu's smile disappeared and he said indifferently.

Ning Chen smiled brightly, "Okay, thank you for troubling Master Fu!"

Fu Lu and others left.

Shen Min shook his head and laughed, "This Master Fu doesn't seem to laugh anymore?"

Ning Chen's expression was playful, "Who can still laugh after being slapped in the face?"

"Okay, everyone is tired, let's take a rest... Old Pan, come with me."

Pan Yucheng nodded and followed Ning Chen into the room.

"Old Pan, help me keep an eye on Li Hongzhuo."

Ning Chen got straight to the point.

Pan Yucheng was slightly startled and didn't understand.

Ning Chen said word by word: "He knows about me and the Empress of Wu."

Pan Yucheng's face changed suddenly, "How did he know?"

Ning Chen said: "I suspect he is in collusion with the Regent of Wu."
