God Three Group Chat: Three Kingdoms

...

As soon as Liu Tong finished speaking, the civil and military officials of the court made the necessary preparations.

Lantu, who was about to leave, stopped in his tracks and turned away. He said angrily, "I've long heard that the Great Han Empire is a land of etiquette. Is this how you treat your envoys?"

"The etiquette of the Han Dynasty is for friends. As for you, hmph!" Liu Tong's expression turned cold, setting the tone for the whole affair.

"Very well, this is the Han Empire. I've seen it for myself. I hope we can still talk like this next time we meet!" Lan Tu showed no mercy, directly mobilizing his internal energy and using his swift methods to launch a long-range attack on Liu Tong. Finally, he used a secret technique to escape and fly away.

There weren't many military generals participating in the grand court assembly, but there were quite a few whose strength had reached the level of internal energy separation, and these people were also within Lantu's observation range.

Lantu, who was already some distance away from these people, realized that if he attacked Liu Tong first, there was a high probability that the others would come to his rescue, and thus, his chances of escaping would be even higher.

During this period, Chang'an City was not suppressed by any cloud formations, so he could fly directly back to the Kushan Empire and report everything that had happened there back to the empire, so that the empire would understand what had occurred.

As for whether his actions would provoke the anger of the Han Empire, Lantu said he didn't care at all, and even liked it.

As long as the Han Empire does not agree, the empress will remain the same empress, and her political influence will remain unchanged.

In addition, since the Han Empire launched the war out of anger, he could also use this war to gain merit and move to a better, more powerful position.

As for the losses caused by this operation, the biggest ones were only the team of envoys, but what does that have to do with him?
They were just some old men from the five branches of the Yuezhi, a group of old guys who occupied high positions and refused to move. They died, which is good for making room for younger people.

The world needs young people, it needs the power of young people!
Faced with this long-range attack, Liu Tong, sitting in his seat, didn't even blink. He watched as the attack stopped three zhang in front of him and then slowly disappeared, as if it had never appeared at all.

Lan Tu, who had just stepped out of Weiyang Palace, was standing below the jade steps of the dragon throne, his clothes disheveled and his appearance unkempt.

A person appeared beside Lan Tu, and Liu Tong looked at this person and said, "Thank you for your trouble, Grand Minister of Agriculture."

"I'm so sorry for disturbing everyone!" Zhao Yun nodded in response, then apologized to the people around him before returning to his original position.

Lantu lay on the ground, feeling the wounds inside his body and barely able to sense his limbs. He could only barely move his eyes to look at Zhao Yun's back, not understanding why someone could be so fast and so strong!
Is this really something a human could do?

Standing behind Liu Xiu, Awende, who had also stepped forward to help after realizing the situation was wrong, stopped in his tracks upon seeing the rapidly changing circumstances.

“You are a Yuezhi person, and you shouldn’t be making any moves under these circumstances. However, I will let it go this time and explain the reasons to His Majesty.” After sensing the protective layer of internal energy that appeared on the surface of his body, Liu Xiu turned his head to look at Awende and spoke in a calm tone.

Hearing those words, it would be a lie to say that Liu Xiu wasn't angry.

They were both princesses, both princesses of the Han Empire, so how much better could she be?

Because of this association, Arvind himself was also implicated to some extent. However, since Arvind was able to provide protection immediately in case of an emergency, the resentment towards him personally has lessened. Nevertheless, the factor of being linked by his identity still exists, and it will certainly have an impact in the short term.

Realizing the distance created by his words, Arvind even had the urge to kill Rantu on the spot.

Ever since he regretted giving up last time, Awende has been working tirelessly to get closer to Liu Xiu.

He not only consulted Ma Xinde, but also many renowned experts in love in Chang'an. Through long-term efforts, he was only one step away from that position. Now, he almost returned to his original position. This kind of fall is really hard to accept.

Having experienced it once, Arvind had absolutely no desire to go through it a second time.

However, in this situation, Arvind had no choice but to accept his bad luck and nod on the spot, standing quietly behind Liu Xiu, waiting for the final verdict.

“Lantu, you are right about one thing.” Liu Tong rose from the dragon throne, dressed in phoenix-patterned robes, and slowly descended the jade steps, approaching Lantu step by step until he reached the last jade step in front of Lantu. His clear voice echoed throughout the Weiyang Palace, “The Empire is confident that it can get what it wants, because we are the Empire, the Great Han Empire!”

Others' extravagant desires and tributes are your thoughts, not our actions.

It's only because you're sensible that you're unwilling to do it yourself. If you wanted it, you wouldn't be able to get it.
"Wishful thinking... The Empire will not let you succeed." Enduring the pain from his injuries, Lantu did his best to control his body and then refuted Liu Tong's words.

"Is that so?" Liu Tong glanced down at the blueprint on the ground, then looked at the civil and military officials around him and said seriously, "The Great Han Empire has been established for four hundred years. To be enfeoffed as a marquis based on military merit is such an opportunity. I wonder what you all think?"

These words immediately silenced the court.

Then a voice came from behind, and the entire Weiyang Palace became unified.

"Wind!" "Wind!"

...

Listening to the conversations around him, Lantu instantly realized that the situation in the Han Empire was different from what he had imagined.

The woman before him was not a puppet, but a real emperor with imperial power, and even a very capable one.

It seems he made the wrong choice.

Just as he was about to lose consciousness, feeling that his life was about to end, Lantu vaguely heard a sentence.

"Don't worry, you won't die. Only by witnessing the destruction of the Kushans can you atone for your rudeness today. You will live on until the day the Kushans fall. At that time, you will be buried with them, disappearing into the annals of history, just like the Huns of old. Perhaps even less than the Huns, since you couldn't even defeat them..."
