Reborn Daqin, I am the emperor

Chapter 39 Zhao Tuo is Dead
"Ah... Young Master Di, you...what are you talking about, I...did I do something shameful?"

Xu Chu's face changed, and he quickly argued.

It's a pity that as an honest person, he doesn't have the strength to lie, and he stutters as soon as he speaks, giving people a feeling of guilt.

"Enough Xu Chu, tell me, what happened?"

Ying Shou frowned slightly, and couldn't bear to see this guy's smartness.

You know, although this guy was a fierce general during the Three Kingdoms period, he was also a well-known honest man in history.

It is said that once, before following Cao Cao, because his family was short of food, he had no choice but to exchange his family's cattle with bandits for food.As a result, the cow ran back the next day.

If it were someone else, if the cow ran back without being afraid of the bandits, there would be absolutely no reason to return it. In the end, this guy was lucky enough to drag the cow back a hundred feet with his bare hands, intending to send it to the bandits.

Its power was astonishing, and the gangsters were terrified. Wherever they dared to ask for cattle, they ran away one by one, and their reputation spread from then on.

It can be said that under Ying Shou's command, everyone can lie, but no one dares to lie. Only this guy, who obviously can't lie, is the most daring to lie.

"Your Majesty...you...you see it?"

After being scolded by Ying Shou, Xu Chu's face suddenly changed, and he could no longer maintain his pretended calm.

"Hehehe, this is Mr. Xu Chu, whom the emperor often talks about. He is really brave, but unfortunately he is not good at lying. Not to mention Your Majesty, the old man has already seen it!"

Sitting in front of Ying Shou, Di Renjie said with a smile.

Hearing this, Xu Chu's old face darkened, and he hesitated to walk in front of Ying Shou.

When he took the last step, he suddenly stopped as if he had made a huge decision.

"Your Majesty, Xu Chu did have something to hide. It's not that Xu Chu didn't want to say it, but he just didn't know how to say it. Since His Majesty asked the question himself, I won't hide it. But let me say it first. This is my problem. If Your Majesty is not happy, don't hesitate Don't involve other people, at worst, His Majesty will kill Xu Chu!"

Standing in front of Ying Shou, Xu Chu pouted, with an expression of resignation to death.

Seeing this scene, Di Renjie couldn't help laughing again. I have to say, Xu Chu is indeed a bit too honest, which makes people laugh!

"Speak!"

Ying Shou had a cold face. The smarter this guy was, the more he had the urge to hit someone.

You said that you are an honest person, isn't it good to be honest?Do you have to learn from those scheming people and play tricks with yourself?
"Your Majesty, that's what happened. Didn't I send you a letter almost two months ago, saying that Zhao Tuo rebelled and killed the envoy of Great Qin?" Xu Chu was silent for a moment, lowered his head, a little afraid Looking at Ying Shou's expression, he said.

"and then?"

Ying Shou said coldly.

"Then...then just a month ago, I...I discovered a very important problem...I definitely discovered this problem, Your Majesty, you must remember my contribution!"

Xu Chu continued to speak, but before he finished speaking, it was time to claim credit.

"It's over!"

Rao Ying Shou has a calm personality, facing this guy's fits and starts, he couldn't help but lose his temper, and shouted in a cold voice.

"Oh, that's what happened. I found out that Zhao Tuo has not been seen in the whole of Lingnan for more than a month. What kind of person am I? Think carefully, it's not right!"

"If Zhao Tuo dared to kill my Great Qin envoy, he was preparing to rebel. Since he rebelled, he must dispatch troops! After more than a month passed, Zhao Tuo couldn't help but didn't dispatch troops. Instead, he didn't even show his face. Pass!"

While speaking, Xu Chu, who was frank and lenient, spoke more and more smoothly. Gradually, the whole person paced back and forth in the room, describing the whole thing vividly.

"I know that there must be something unknown here, so I mobilized all my strength to investigate Zhao Tuo, only to find out that he miraculously disappeared, and it seemed that there was no Zhao Tuo in the whole of Lingnan." !"

"Oh, my mother, this surprise is not small. In the end, after all my efforts to investigate, I discovered an earth-shattering event!"

Ying Shou and Di Renjie listened quietly. It was okay at first, but after hearing that Zhao Tuo had disappeared, both of them couldn't help frowning, feeling something was wrong.

"Your Majesty, guess what earth-shattering event it is?"

As a result, just when the most important point was mentioned, Xu Chu came up with a black face and said winkingly.

"roll!"

Ying Shou was waiting for this guy to say his next sentence. At this moment, he got stuck and was so angry that Ying Shou kicked him.

"Oh!"

"Oh!"

With a scream, Xu Chu flew upside down and lay on the ground, shaking the ground.

"I don't know what earth-shattering event is, but I know, if you dare to talk nonsense, I can take your head right now!"

Ying Shou said coldly with a gloomy face.

"Forehead!"

Xu Chu forced himself to get up from the pain, and couldn't help but look embarrassed. When it came to forgetting his feelings, he almost didn't notice that he was talking to this person.

"hey-hey!"

Immediately, Xu Chu hurriedly laughed twice, and said: "Your Majesty, the matter is like this. The earth-shattering event is that Zhao Tuo died!"

"what?"

As soon as Xu Chu finished speaking, Di Renjie suddenly stood up and said, "Zhao Tuo is dead?"

Ying Shou also narrowed his eyes suddenly, looked at Xu Chu, and said, "You said Zhao Tuo is dead?"

Xu Chu nodded quickly and said, "Yes, Zhao Tuo is dead!"

This time, without waiting for Ying Shou to ask, Di Renjie hurriedly asked: "How did Zhao Tuo die, please tell me quickly?"

Hearing this, Xu Chu looked Di Renjie up and down, and said, "You old man, didn't you notice that I was talking to His Majesty? Your Majesty didn't even speak, what are you in a hurry for? Also, who are you old man, in front of His Majesty If you dare to sit on an equal footing, you are not afraid of losing your head?"

When Di Renjie heard this, he was almost dumbfounded.

"Shut up Xu Chu, Mr. Di Renjie and Mr. Di in front of you, come with me this time, so don't be unreasonable in the future, and answer Mr. Di's questions quickly!"

Ying Shou's eyes widened. What he was most afraid of was this kind of person who always changed the subject unintentionally while chatting.

"Oh, good Your Majesty!"

Xu Chu hurriedly responded, and said, "Zhao Tuo's death, you may not be able to believe it, but he actually died outside Hengpu Pass, and was intercepted and killed!"

"Outside Hengpu Pass, was it intercepted and killed?"

Ying Shou and Di Renjie frowned one after another. Outside Hengpu Pass, they were outside the border of South Vietnam.

Now that Zhao Tuo has declared his rebellion, it is still possible to hide in Nanyue. If he runs out of Nanyue, isn't that the same as courting death, where the Central Plains directly belong to the world!
