Chapter 117

Dequan bowed and saluted each minister.

Only then stood at the front and said: "Your Majesty has a decree. Because of the cold weather, you can't come to court on time.
However, in order to sympathize with the hard work of the adults, the side hall of the Jinluan Hall is specially opened to light the fire for the ministers to keep warm. "

As soon as he finished speaking, two eunuchs opened the gate of the side hall.

It can be vaguely seen that a warm earth dragon has been raised inside.

Some people accepted it frankly, but some ministers said: "If you don't go to the court, then the next official will take his leave and go back to the government."

Eunuch Dequan responded with a half-smile: "This is a gift from His Majesty, if the adults don't appreciate it, the slaves will not be easy to explain."

The official understood, and nodded slightly: "It's because the lower official didn't think carefully."

Civil and military officials, together with foreign envoys, squeezed into the side hall together.

Fortunately, the side hall is wide enough to accommodate these people without any problem.

The gate of the palace was closed by the Imperial Guard.

It turned out that thin snow fell on the shoulders of these ministers.

But the earth dragon roasting in the side hall was as warm as spring, and soon, the snow on their clothes turned into a puddle of water.

The official robe was soaked.

Eunuch Dequan said very considerately: "Your Majesty expected this situation early on. In order to prevent adults from catching cold and catching cold,

Please take off your clothes in the hall!The slave will serve a bowl of ginger soup to each adult. "

Today's orders from the emperor are all strange.

But there are also careless people, such as Chang Sheng General Xiang Wei, who directly take off their robes to reveal their muscular upper bodies.

He drank the ginger soup bowl in one gulp, like drinking wine.

Not only that, but he also felt a little emotional: "Your Majesty is so concerned about the health of ministers and others, it is really our blessing!"

He has said so, and the rest of the officials seem to be ignoring the emperor's kindness no matter how stubborn they are.

So, there was only the rustling sound of robes being taken off in the hall.

Gong Yufei stood at the top of the hand, with indifferent brows and eyes, and glanced around.

Finally, it fell on the foreign envoy standing aside.

Eunuch Dequan understood, stepped forward and asked respectfully: "Your envoy, why don't you take off your robe? Be careful of the cold."

The envoy's complexion was tense, and the muscles on his face seemed a little tense.

"Thank you for your kindness, Eunuch and Your Majesty, but when I was in Changchao, I was already used to this kind of weather, so I shouldn't be afraid of this kind of cold."

The terrain of the Chang Dynasty was in the north, and it was frozen all the year round, and the winter was very long.

A sneer flashed across Eunuch Dequan's face.

He didn't say anything at that time, just nodded, turned and left.

However, when distributing ginger soup, Eunuch Dequan personally handed the envoy a bowl.

Suddenly, Eunuch Dequan seemed unsure.

The ginger soup tilted and directly spilled the envoy's entire sleeve.

Eunuch Dequan pretended to be shocked: "Why did you spill it? Come on, bring a towel."

He stretched out his hand to grab the envoy's sleeve: "Please take off your robe, I will arrange for the maid to wash it before sending it over."

The envoy withdrew his hand very vigilantly.

The action is fast.

But Eunuch Dequan had already pinched his arm.

He felt an unusual touch.

There seemed to be something tied to the envoy's arm!
Before Eunuch Dequan called out to the imperial guards, the envoy quickly drew out the cold blade and stabbed Eunuch Dequan directly.

It turned out that what he hid under his sleeve turned out to be a sharp knife as long as a baby's arm!
Eunuch De Quan was so frightened that he didn't have any martial arts skills, he backed away repeatedly.

As a result, I didn't know which minister stepped on the robe that had been taken off.

With a slip, he fell to the ground, his facial features wrinkled.

"Ouch……"

Seeing the opportunity, the envoy assassin immediately lowered the blade, intending to directly stab Dequan in the heart.
