Emperor Shen's charming wife

Chapter 159 Unwarranted Accusations

He knew very well that the emperor of this country was ambitious and had always wanted to conquer the entire continent and create a vast empire. Shen Yu thought again and again and decided to negotiate with the emperor of this country, hoping to reach a peace agreement. He properly arranged the envoy in the palace, and then hurriedly sent people to investigate the details of this country. After staying in the palace for a few days, the envoy set off. Shen Yu looked at the envoy's departing back, with a lot of worries in his heart. He understood that the ambitious emperor would never easily give up his ambition to conquer the continent. Shen Yu had made up his mind and was determined to negotiate with the emperor of the other side and urge a peace agreement. At the magnificent banquet, envoys from various countries and important officials of the court gathered together. When the foreign envoy was toasting, he suddenly attacked, pointing the finger at Shen Yu's policies in recent years, intending to provoke a dispute. "Your Majesty, the Emperor of our country has asked me to send you greetings." The envoy saluted respectfully to Shen Yu, but there was a hint of cunning in his eyes. Shen Yu nodded slightly and smiled, "I have received the greetings from your Majesty." The envoy raised his wine glass and said to Shen Yu, "Your Majesty, I toast you a glass." Shen Yu smiled and raised his wine glass and clinked glasses with the envoy. The envoy raised his head and drank it all, then put down the wine glass, his face straightened, and said, "Your Majesty, I came here this time to discuss some trade matters with your country." Shen Yu nodded slightly, motioning the envoy to continue. The envoy said: "Your Majesty, in recent years, your country's trade policy has been somewhat biased towards your country, resulting in some unfair phenomena in the trade between our country and your country. For example, our silk is taxed too high in your country, while your porcelain enjoys preferential treatment in our country. This makes our merchants miserable. I hope Your Majesty can adjust your country's trade policy to make our trade with your country more fair and just." Shen Yu frowned slightly and said: "Your country's envoy, our country's trade policy is formulated according to our national conditions and is not biased towards our country. Our country has always been committed to establishing friendly trade relations with various countries and promoting their economic development. Take silk for example, our country originally The silk production in the country is limited. In order to protect the domestic industry, it is reasonable to increase taxes moderately. "The envoy smiled slightly and said, "Your Majesty, I know that your country's trade policy is formulated according to your national conditions, but it has indeed brought many inconveniences to our trade with your country. Our merchants have suffered heavy losses because of this. I hope Your Majesty can reconsider it. "Shen Yu nodded slightly and said, "Your country's envoy, our country's trade policy is not immutable. After discussing with the ministers, I will give your country a satisfactory answer. But the premise is that your country also needs to show sincerity and jointly maintain the trade balance between the two countries. "The envoy smiled slightly and said, "Then wait for your Majesty's good news." Shen Yu and the other emperor launched a long and difficult negotiation. After several days, the two sides finally reached a peace agreement. Shen Yu felt relieved, but he always had a trace of uneasiness in his heart. When the envoy left the palace, he looked at Shen Yu meaningfully, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised, as if with a sly smile. Shen Yu's heart tightened. He knew very well that this envoy was not a good person. He must have other intentions for coming here. Shen Yu decided to host a banquet to entertain the envoy to find out his true intentions. At the banquet, the lights were bright and the food was fragrant. Shen Yu and the envoy had a good chat and the atmosphere seemed harmonious. However, when the envoy stood up to toast, a barely noticeable smile suddenly appeared on his face. The envoy raised his glass and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, your policies in recent years have led to unfair trade between the two countries, which has put the lives of the people of our country into difficulties. I hope you can change this situation so that the people of both countries can live a happy life." Shen Yu was slightly startled, and his face instantly became gloomy. He knew very well that the envoy was deliberately provoking and wanted to provoke a dispute between the two countries. Shen Yu took a deep breath, stood up slowly, and said with strong resentment: "Your Excellency, Envoy, you have misunderstood. My policies in recent years are for the happiness of the people of both countries, and have not led to unfair trade between the two countries." The envoy was slightly startled, and his face showed that imperceptible smile again. He put down the wine glass and said: "Your Majesty, you don't need to explain. I already know what you think." Shen Yu's face became more gloomy, took a deep breath, and said coldly: "Your Excellency, Envoy, what do you mean by this?" The envoy still smiled slightly, with a sly smile flashing in his eyes, and slowly repeated: "Your Majesty, you don't need to explain. I already know what you think." Shen Yu glared at him and asked coldly again: "Your Excellency, Envoy, what do you mean by this?" The envoy still had the same expression, repeating the same words slowly. Shen Yu's face was so gloomy that it seemed as if water could drip out. He clenched his fists tightly, and the anger in his heart was burning. Shen Yu had made up his mind and decided to negotiate with the other emperor and strive to reach a peace agreement. He properly placed the envoy in the palace, and then quickly sent people to thoroughly investigate the specific situation of the country. A few days later, the envoy set off. Shen Yu looked at the gradually receding figure, and his heart was shrouded in worries like a haze. He knew very well that the ambitious emperor would never easily give up the arrogant idea of ​​conquering the continent. Shen Yu was well aware of the ambitions of the emperor of this country. He had always wanted to dominate the entire continent and build a boundless and huge empire. So he carefully prepared a grand banquet in the palace and sincerely invited the foreign envoy to come. At the banquet, the lights were bright and the table was full of delicacies. Shen Yu and the envoy raised their glasses to drink, and the atmosphere seemed harmonious. Shen Yu looked at the envoy and said with a smile: "Envoy, I have long heard of your country's reputation for strength. Today I see that it is indeed worthy of its reputation." The envoy smiled and responded: "Your Majesty, your majesty is too kind. Your country is also powerful. Our emperor also admires your country." Shen Yu smiled and looked sincere: "Envoy, I intend to establish friendly diplomatic relations with your country. What do you think?" The envoy was slightly stunned, still smiling, and said: "Your Majesty, your country is far away from our country. If we establish diplomatic relations, I am afraid we will face many difficulties." Shen Yu said with a firm look: "Envoy, I know that there will be obstacles to establishing diplomatic relations, but I firmly believe that as long as our two countries work together, we will definitely be able to establish friendly diplomatic relations. We can build friendly diplomatic relations." The envoy still smiled and repeated: "Your Majesty, your country is far away from our country. If we establish diplomatic relations, I'm afraid there will be some trouble." Shen Yu continued: "Envoy, I know that establishing diplomatic relations will be a little troublesome, but I believe that as long as our two countries work together, we will be able to establish friendly diplomatic relations." The envoy smiled and said: "Your Majesty, your country is far away from our country. If we establish diplomatic relations, I'm afraid there will be some trouble." Shen Yu smiled and said: "Envoy, I know that establishing diplomatic relations will be a little troublesome, but I believe that as long as our two countries work together, we will be able to establish friendly diplomatic relations."
