Chapter 280 Arrival of Envoys from Two Countries

After Trier came down from the Dong'an Military Port, he was always on tenterhooks.

He had never been to Dong'an, and the only impression he had of this place was the exquisite utensils and terrifying military strength.

He may have despised this eastern country before, but since the defeat of the coalition forces and the annihilation of the entire army, his contempt has turned into fear.

Now, as the envoy of the defeated party, with only a dozen or so assistants coming to this land of the victor, it is understandable that he would feel uneasy.

Fortunately, the soldiers at the military port did not make things difficult for him, and followed the rules completely, and led them to the residence where the envoy was received.

After landing, Trier immediately asked the soldiers to report.He wanted to see the court officials in Dong'an as soon as possible for a diplomatic conversation.

Zhang Qian was in charge of Dong'an's diplomatic department. After the news reached him, he also notified Lu Wuyou.

Lu Wuyou used to often talk with envoys from various countries, and he has rich experience in this area.He didn't delay, and immediately found Su Yuan to report.

"Is it the foreign minister of Xifeng Kingdom?"

"Yes." Lu Wuyou said, "A total of ten people, headed by Minister Trier."

Xifeng's foreign minister was visiting. The Xifeng government had notified Dong'an of this matter in advance, so as not to cause misunderstandings, and the ship sent over was sunk inexplicably.

Su Yuan was not surprised by this matter, he had known for a long time that Xifeng Kingdom would definitely send someone to discuss it.

There is no doubt that there is only one purpose, which is to get the captured sailors and warships back.

"They want to get the invading troops back, but it's not that easy." Su Yuan said.

Of course Lu Wuyou understood what Su Yuan meant, and said with a smile, "Your Majesty, are you ready to make Xi Feng bleed?"

"of course."

Since he had already prepared for Trier's arrival, Su Yuan had naturally drawn up the negotiation conditions in advance.

He said to Lu Wuyou: "Go to Xun Yu. He has a list of claims."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

"By the way, the envoys from the Saxon Kingdom are also here?"

"Yes, they arrived yesterday."

"Okay, remember to arrange for them to live with Trier and others." Su Yuan smiled, "That scene must be pretty good."

Lu Wuyou suppressed a smile and nodded.

In the other courtyard where the messenger lived, Trier couldn't sit still in the room and went out to walk around.

Before being received by court officials, they could not leave the Messenger's Courtyard, but could only walk around in the courtyard.

After Trier came out, he found that a group of people were already walking in the yard.

As soon as he saw the leader, he immediately widened his eyes: "Powell!"

"Um?!"

The man suddenly turned his head to look, the mouth hidden under the beard opened wide: "Damn it, Trier!"

When Trier saw Powell, his heart was furious. He walked up to him quickly and asked, "What are you doing here? Is there some conspiracy between you Saxons!"

Powell is the Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Saxon Kingdom. His job content is similar to that of the Foreign Minister, and his status is also equivalent.

The two have known each other for a long time. Saxon and Xifengguo have negotiated several times, and they lead each other's team. It can be said that they are old acquaintances and old enemies.

Both of them look down on each other, and every time they meet, they will choke each other.It's just that none of them expected that they would meet each other on the territory of Dong'an.

Facing Trier's doubts, Powell sneered: "Conspiracy, hum. I'm just representing the Saxon country to discuss cooperation with Dong'an. But what about you? Trier, don't you come here to bow your knees and plead for mercy?"

Powell's sarcasm sent Trier into a rage: "You!"

He wanted to yell, but couldn't.

Because although Powell's words are ugly, they are actually true.He Trier did come to intercede.

Seeing that his old enemy was speechless, Powell felt very happy in his heart, and his face was full of color: "Haha, Trier, I really didn't expect you Xifeng to end up in this situation. Tsk, it seems that our Saxon country is more important." It's a winning chip, and it's the right bargaining chip."

At the beginning, the Saxon Kingdom resisted the pressure and did not join the alliance. It insisted on maintaining business cooperation with Dong'an, which was tantamount to putting chips on Dong'an's poker table.

Now that the result is out, Dongan wins, and Saxon naturally wins the future.

Trier's face was gloomy, and he said in a threatening tone: "Powell, you'd better not be too complacent. Don't forget, we are all the same kind of people. The closer you get to the Orientals, the more you will be punished when you are liquidated in the future." It will get worse!"

"Liquidation? Trier, I think you are still dreaming!"

"Bastard! What did you say?"

"You dare to scold me?!"

The two became angry and began to insult and push each other.

Their respective assistants came to stop them one after another, trying to pull them apart.But the tempers of the two are very hot, and seven or eight people can't help it.

At this time, the Dong'an soldiers who heard the movement here rushed over and shouted: "What are you doing! Fighting is not allowed here!"

The two of the seven or eight assistants who couldn't hold back just now calmed down and stopped after being scolded by Dong'an soldiers.

They gave each other a hard look, turned and went back to their room.

After entering the room, Trier closed the door, frowning and paced back and forth.

"Oh no, this bastard, Powell, will come. I'm afraid he wants to persuade the Dong'an court not to return the prisoners. In this way, the naval power of the Saxons will surpass that of Xifeng! Our position will be in danger!"

"Damn it! Why come to spoil the situation at this time!"

On the other hand, Powell also stroked his beard anxiously after returning to the room.

"That bastard Dalz sent Terrier here, probably ready to bleed heavily in exchange for captives. In this way, the hole cards in my hand may not be enough... No, I have to apply to the higher authorities immediately, asking for more permissions !"

The two had their own thoughts, anxiously waiting for the summoning of the officials of the Dong'an court.

It was not until several hours later that Dong'an soldiers came to call for someone.

The first one to be called was naturally Powell, the Saxon envoy who had a more friendly relationship with Dong'an.

Lu Wuyou received Powell in an open-air pavilion. The two sat down on a stone bench covered with velvet cushions, and someone beside them poured two cups of hot tea.

"Mr. Lu, seeing is better than hearing a hundred times. I didn't expect you to be so young. I really feel ashamed!"

Powell opened his mouth with a compliment.But it is also from the heart.

Lu Wuyou was only a few years older than Su Yuan, and compared to Powell who was only forty, it would not be an exaggeration to say that he was a brat.

But Powell will not have the slightest contempt, he knows that Su Yuan is only this year, and in the history of the Western Kingdom, there are also talents who succeeded to the throne in their teens.Ability is not necessarily proportional to age.

Moreover, the previous disastrous defeat of the coalition forces has also proved this point.

"Mr. Powell is amused."

"Haha, no, I really mean it!"

The two exchanged a few words of greeting, drank a few cups of hot tea, and finally got down to business.

Powell went straight to the point, directly pointing out the tasks he shouldered this trip.

"To tell you the truth, Mr. Lu. Your Excellency the President asked me to come to your country this time. There is only one most important purpose. That is to hope to establish a friendly relationship with Dong'an like Wen Laiguo."
