Kang State was the center of the Zhaowu Kingdom and the suzerain state.
There were three ministers in the country who jointly assisted King Kang in handling state affairs, and there were also a number of officials in charge of various ministries.
After receiving the summons from King Chuhe, three ministers and officials rushed over.
Seeing that everyone had almost arrived, Chu He said to the ministers and officials: "Let Master Mu tell you."
Master Mu then said to everyone: "Everyone, I have just received news that a Tang Dynasty envoy of more than 200 people is advancing towards our country on the territory of Cao State.
According to the spies' investigation, the purpose of their trip is to Convince me, Zhaowu Kingdom, to send troops to attack Tuqishi.
According to reliable information, Shi Kingdom and Bakhanna Kingdom have agreed to send 10,000 and 5,000 troops respectively.
The specific situation is still unknown.
This is the situation."
In the main hall, everyone was whispering to each other and discussing, and the expressions of ministers and officials who were highly sensitive to politics could not help but change drastically.
Upon seeing this, Chu He said: "It's all clear now, how should we respond to the arrival of the Tang Dynasty mission?"
For Chu He himself, he was extremely conflicted.
He hoped to connect with the Tang Dynasty and ask the Tang Dynasty to send troops to repel the cannibals, but he was also worried that his true thoughts would be known by the cannibals and lead to death.
Therefore, he did not want the Tang Dynasty envoy to come to Kangguo, lest the cannibals misunderstood that this Tang Dynasty envoy was brought by him.
At this time, a minister stood up and saluted: "Great Khan, I believe that the Tang Dynasty envoys should be received with high standards of etiquette.
On the one hand, it can show the magnanimity of our country, and on the other hand, it can also show goodwill to the Tang Dynasty."
"Absolutely not."
Another minister stood up and objected loudly, "Great Khan, if we receive the Tang Dynasty envoy with high standards of etiquette, then we will put the Dashi Kingdom in the wrong place.
You need to know where the Arap Muslim General of the Dashi Kingdom will be.
Lead the army and station it in the city."
"Master Peiro's words are wrong."
The third minister also expressed his opinion, "No matter which country's envoy comes to our country, our country must receive it with due etiquette.
Even the big food country cannot say anything.
Even if the relationship between the Tang Dynasty and the Great Food Kingdom was hostile, the mission was still protected. , does the Great Food Country want to risk the disapproval of the world and ignore diplomatic etiquette?
What's more, the Tang Dynasty and the Great Food Country have not yet had a substantial conflict.
If we shut out the Tang Dynasty envoys from the country or are sloppy in etiquette, can we let the Tang Dynasty Do countries think that our country is just a foreign barbarian who doesn’t understand etiquette?”
After the three ministers expressed their opinions, other officials also supported their ministers, and the hall suddenly became noisy.
Chu He was upset by the noise and had a splitting headache.
He couldn't bear it anymore and shouted: "Enough, enough, shut up!"
The ministers and officials were angry when they saw Chu He, and they all saluted him in fear: "I am waiting for death penalty."
Chu He waved his hand: "Forget it, it won't work this way, that won't work either.
You guys should tell me what we should do."
At this moment, loud laughter suddenly came from outside the hall: "Hahaha, since the Great Khan doesn't know what to do, why don't I, the general, give the Great Khan an idea?"
Everyone in the hall changed their minds when they heard this voice.
Everyone knew that the owner of this voice was Alap Muslim, the commander-in-chief of the Dashi Kingdom's garrison in Kang.
Chuhe's face was extremely ugly.
Although he was a little afraid that Alapup would be unfavorable to him, if he didn't say a word at this time, he would really lose his dignity.
"General Dulepu, why did you barge into this place without notification?"
Palace, do you still take me seriously?"
Dulepu, the guard stationed in Kang State by the Dashi Kingdom, did not show any guilt or uneasiness at all after hearing Chu He's words.
Instead, he smiled and said indifferently: "Khan, I'm really sorry.
It's too troublesome to report anything.
Yes, look at me walking in like this, it’s quick and hassle-free, how nice it is.”
"You" Chu He was so angry that he couldn't stop cursing in his mind.
First, he cursed Dulep, and second, he scolded the official who reported the news to Dulep.

The forest is big and there are all kinds of birds.
Among the officials of Kang State, it is inevitable that there will be a few people who want to hug the thick legs of the food country.
Du Lepu came here because he got a tip from a certain official.
Lord Perro, one of the three ministers, saw signs that Chu Huo and Dulep were falling out again, and he quickly stepped forward to smooth things over: "Don't be angry, Khan.
Don't be angry.
General Dulep is an outspoken person.
I think Dulep must The general doesn’t mean any harm, so the Great Khan should let General Dulep tell him what he has in mind.”
Chu Huo stared at Pero, wishing to eat his flesh and drink his blood.
He already knew that Pero had turned to Dulep, and Dulep knew that they were discussing this matter and it must have been Pero who tipped off.
Although he hated Pei Luo deeply, Chuhe knew that this matter was not the time to fall out with Dulep.
Although Dulep only had a thousand soldiers and horses in the city of Samat, it would be very difficult for Kang to kill these thousand people.
Easy, but the ensuing revenge from the Dashi Kingdom will probably destroy Kang State.
This is a disaster that he cannot bear, and it is also a disaster that all the people of Kang State cannot bear.
Chu He could only swallow his anger and hummed: "Okay, I would like to hear what General Dulep has to say."
Arap smiled and said: "Great Khan, on behalf of our country, this general does not welcome the Tang Dynasty's envoys to the Sogdian countries.
This is the attitude of this general and our country.
Your Majesty, you know what to do."
Chu He's face turned the color of pig liver again.
Another minister felt bad when he saw this, and immediately stood up and said: "General Arap, if you say that, our country really doesn't know what to do.
Even if it is a hostile country, It is also common for envoys to be sent to each other to exchange ideas, not to mention the merger of the Great Food Kingdom and the Tang Dynasty.
There is no substantive conflict.
If our country sends people to drive the Tang Dynasty mission out of the border or detains them, this will not only discredit our country, but also make the country of food be criticized.
Others will say, how can we say that the country of food is also A big country with civilization and etiquette, how can it be that it has no sense of humility and is so devoid of etiquette?"
Talking about the war of words, how could a vulgar warrior like Arap be the opponent of these seasoned veterans in the officialdom?
He was rendered speechless in just a few words, but he had a bad temper.
He said angrily on the spot: "In any case, the Tang Dynasty envoy cannot be allowed to come to Kangguo.
Since you don't know what to do, I will tell you directly and send an army to rush over immediately."
Everyone in the Tang Mission killed, buried and erased all the bodies and all traces.”
When Chu Hue and other ministers and officials heard this, they were all horrified.
Attacking the mission was really terrible.
Once the news was leaked and the Tang Dynasty found out, the consequences could be imagined.
It would be a definite declaration of war.
One of the ministers pointed at Arap and shouted: "General Arap, are you crazy?
Attacking the mission is tantamount to starting a war with the Tang Dynasty.
The Tang Dynasty will definitely raise troops to attack.
If you want to cause trouble to the great food country, please don't."
It is harming our country.
Our country has few soldiers and cannot withstand the attack of the heavenly soldiers of the Tang Dynasty."
Arap rolled his eyes and said with a smile: "What's so big about this?
I, the general, have thought of a good idea, which can completely separate your country from ours.
The Great Khan only needs to give an order to send an army out to attack the Tang Dynasty mission."
It was enough to let them all dress up as horse bandits before.
If the Tang Dynasty accuses them afterwards, the Great Khan only needs to send someone to say that they belong to the horse bandits and have nothing to do with us.
How about this, this is a good idea, hahaha."
Everyone in the hall was dumbfounded.

There was silence in the whole hall.
After Chu Hao reacted, he came over and yelled angrily.
He pointed at Alap regardless and shouted: "Only people like you can dream of having the army dress up as horse bandits."
As you can imagine, all the soldiers of Kang State are Zheji warrior, you cannot do such a disgraceful thing to your identity, Arap.
If you go crazy, this Khan will not go crazy with you.
If you want to send troops to attack the Tang Dynasty envoy, send troops yourself.
I will never do this.
This kind of thing is a retreat."
After saying that, he stood up and walked away.
When the ministers saw this, they looked at each other, shook their heads and walked out of the hall.
After everyone left, Alapu walked out of the hall.
Outside the hall, a deputy general from the Dashi Kingdom asked: "General, how are you doing?"
Alapu shook his head and said: "Chu He is not stupid.
He didn't agree.
It seems that the general was a little too hasty."
The deputy general asked: "Then let's let the Tang Dynasty envoy come to Kang Guo to take care of it."
"How can that be done?"
Arap said firmly: "Our country finally has such a big influence in Sogdia.
We absolutely cannot let the Tang Dynasty envoys come here to win them over.
Since Chuyue dare not do this, this matter As long as we do it ourselves, come back with me right away and lead 800 people to intercept and kill the Tang Dynasty envoys on their way.
We also have to dress up as horse bandits.
This kind of thing cannot be done openly and can only be done as horse bandits.
This time you will lead the team, and no one will be left alive."
The deputy general nodded: "Understood":
