Zhu Er was still a little confused when he stood outside the house in the south of Huitong South Hall in Dongjiang Mixiang, which was specially used to receive Goryeo envoys. He was suddenly given a big task without any preparation, and it also came with a very important secret of a fake imperial edict. For Zhu Er, who had never had the opportunity to get involved in the court affairs, it was definitely not a pie in the sky.
That was because he was bombarded with blasts all over his body by the cannons in the sky! When would it be Zhu Er's turn to take on such a task
But he didn't need to look to know how high-spirited the expressions of Zhang Dakuai and Ji Jiu behind him were. He could even guess that the two guys must have felt that being able to take on this task represented the trust and reliance of the emperor. So, after standing there for a long while, he suddenly turned around and dragged the two men aside with one hand each.
Before the two guys could question him, he whispered, "The emperor wants us to invite the King of Zheshan from Goryeo to visit the capital, but can we really just report it and go to see him? In the past, when the Goryeo delegation came, there was never such a thing as the sons of noble families coming forward to invite and entertain them. This is unusual, and if it arouses their vigilance, how can we find out?"
Zhang Dakui was always straightforward. He was stunned for a moment, scratched his head and asked, "What should we do?"
Ji Jiu, who had just been in a state of panic, gradually calmed down. He glanced at Zhang the big guy with disdain, and then said with some annoyance: "What Zhu Erge said is that the Goryeo envoys have nothing to do with us, the children of officials. It has nothing to do with us. The most important thing is that we are not in the Imperial College now, so we can't even use the excuse of visiting future classmates as an excuse."
"That's right. I just feel that if we go straight to them like this, it's like we are using them to highlight their dignity!" Zhu Er felt very comfortable when Ji Jiu called him Brother Zhu Er. He nodded to Ji Jiu very friendly and said to Zhang Dakuai, who looked confused, "So, we have to outsmart them, not outmaneuver them."
Zhang the big guy frowned irritably: "But we didn't intend to fight... We are not here to fight with others!"
Zhu Er's smile froze on his face. It was impossible to talk to a man who only cared about muscles! So he looked at Ji Jiu with hope, hoping that this guy, who was also famous for his cunning when he was in the Banshan Hall of the Imperial College, could come up with a feasible idea.
The three of them were informed by Zhang Shou to gather together. When Zhu Er was confused, the other two were so excited that they rushed here without any discussion. At this time, Zhu Er placed his hopes on Ji Jiu, who was racking his brains and thinking hard, when Zhang the big guy muttered in annoyance.
"If it really doesn't work, why don't we use Zhang Chen's excuse? Didn't they say that this Zheshan Jun openly rode a sedan chair to the city gate? We can just rush in and teach him a lesson, and then laugh it off. Isn't that great?"
Zhu Er was speechless. Do you have any misunderstanding about "a smile to end all grudges"? Besides, can this word be used in this place? However, just as he was about to let Zhang Dakuo know that things should not be done so simply and crudely, he heard Ji Jiu suddenly lightly punch his fist.
