Mind reading, I used the concubine system to become the empress

I thought to myself, is this envoy sick? Why go find Qin Zheng instead of someone else?

Putting aside the question of whether it is a weapon or not, this guy's internal strength alone is enough to break the knife.

What's more, his sword was specially made. In Dayan, perhaps only her father's sword could compare with it.

Qin Zheng had a blank expression on his face, but there was some impatience between his brows. He turned around and glanced at the shadows.

Shao Feng, who was hiding in the dark, laughed. He happened to be on duty today, responsible for protecting the emperor's safety. Seeing such an interesting scene, he naturally had to help.

So while the envoys were searching everywhere, he called Qin Zheng, who was practicing martial arts in the palace, over.

Lin Shu probably guessed what had happened and reluctantly repeated his request.

Qin Zheng didn't waste any words. He drew the sword from his waist and slashed it with his hand. The knife on the ground was broken from two pieces into three.

After doing all this, Qin Zheng bowed to the emperor, turned around and left without any hesitation.

"Your Excellency, the quality of this knife does not seem to be very good."

Lin Shu's voice was trembling as he tried to hold back his laughter.

The envoy's face turned pale and blue, and he was filled with shame.

He never imagined that the treasure he brought from afar was actually something discarded by Dayan!

It's not even as good as the sword of an ordinary boy.

Moreover, being exposed in front of others was such a huge shame and humiliation!

The envoy's face turned red and he wished he could find a crack in the ground to crawl into.

After a long while, he murmured, "We were indeed deceived."

He took a deep breath before continuing.

"Even if this knife is fake, we from Northern Frontier still have other precious gifts for you."

Lin Shu and the emperor looked at each other, and both felt that there was still a joke to be laughed at.

The envoy took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down.

He took out a brocade box from his sleeve and opened it carefully.

"This is the colored glass lamp that our Northern Frontier King bought at a high price. It is crystal clear and rare in the world."

As he spoke, he handed the brocade box to the eunuch beside him.

The eunuch took the brocade box and presented the glass cup to the emperor.

The emperor looked at the glass cup, a hint of amusement flashing in his eyes.

This glass cup is from Dayan. It would have been rare two years ago.

But nowadays, it has become a common thing.

How come it became a rare thing in the world when it came into the mouth of the envoy from the northern border?

Lin Shu stood aside, looking at the glass cup with excellent workmanship, and almost laughed out loud.

That's it?

Could it be that he was fooled by the merchants in Dayan?

"This glass cup..." Lin Shu pretended to be an inexperienced person and asked curiously, "What is it made of? Why is it like this..."

She paused, as if searching for the right adjective.

"So... ordinary?"

When the envoy heard this, he immediately became anxious.

"Your Highness, you may not know that this colored glass lamp is a priceless treasure in our Northern Frontier!"

"Oh?" Lin Shu pretended to be surprised. "Priceless?"

"But this glass lamp can be found almost everywhere in Dayan."

When the envoy heard what Lin Shu said, he immediately opened his mouth to refute.

"This"

"This..." The envoy hesitated and couldn't explain it for a long time.

Lin Shu sneered in his heart but remained expressionless.

"Since the envoy doesn't know how much it is worth, why not..."

She rolled her eyes and figured it out.

"How about this, we in Dayan also have some rare things, why don't we take them out and exchange them with the envoy?"

When the envoy heard this, he immediately became interested.

"I wonder what Her Royal Highness wants to exchange for it?"

Lin Shu smiled slightly and waved outside the hall.

"Someone, bring me the glass tea set in my storeroom."

After a while, a palace servant came in carrying a tray covered with red silk.

Lin Shu personally walked down the steps and lifted the red silk.

On the tray, there was a set of crystal clear glass tea set.

Teapots, teacups, tea trays, everything you need is available.

Moreover, each piece is exquisitely carved and lifelike.

Compared with the crudely made glass cup brought by the envoy, it is simply heaven and earth superior.

The envoy was stunned.

Only then did he realize that what Lin Shu said was true, and these things could really be seen everywhere in Dayan.

They were fooled in the northern border.

The messenger's face turned pale, and he finally took out some things he had prepared, such as night-shining pearls.

Both Lin Shu and the emperor looked uninterested.

Lin Shu took in the envoy's expression and laughed inwardly.

It seems that the news from Northern Xinjiang, it seems that their merchants have concealed this information very well!

"How is it? Your Excellency, does my glass tea set appeal to your taste?"

Lin Shu asked with a smile.

The envoy stared at the glass tea set with his eyes wide open.

He nodded subconsciously, then came to his senses and quickly shook his head.

"No, no, no, this is too expensive, I can't accept it!"

Lin Shu stuffed the tea set into his hands without saying anything.

"Your Excellency the Envoy has come from afar. This is a small gift from our Great Yan. Please accept it!"

"You don't have to think it's expensive. You'll know when we have dinner. We'll give you some small gifts then. They are the latest products developed by Dayan."

The envoy wanted to refuse, but Lin Shu had already turned around and returned to his seat.

"Daddy, what do you think?"

The emperor looked at Lin Shu's quirky appearance with eyes full of doting.

"Since it's a gift from the princess, just keep it."

After hearing what the Emperor of Great Yan said, the envoy knelt down and thanked him, saying, "Thank you, Your Majesty, and thank you, Princess!"

He looked very happy, holding the glass tea set as if it were some rare treasure.

He thought that since it was a gift from the royal family of Dayan, it must be some valuable treasure.

Lin Shu laughed in his heart as he watched, and had already begun to imagine the expression on the envoy's face during the meal.

At lunch time, the envoy was completely stunned when he saw the table was covered with glassware.

He just felt a little proud, thinking that the emperor prepared those things specially for him.

They thought that the Emperor of Dayan was still afraid of their northern border, so he attached so much importance to him.

Who knew that this was not the case at all, because when he looked up, he saw these glass products in front of all the ministers.

There was no excitement in their eyes, and some of them were even sighing.

Especially the people around him, who were muttering in low voices.

"Why are all the glass products used? I'm already numb to them."

"Not even as good as porcelain."

The envoy from the Northern Frontier was completely unable to hold back his excitement. He looked at the box in his arms and felt like a fool.

He finally understood why the people around him looked at him with such pity.

After he figured it out, he wanted to cover his face and didn't even want to see anyone.
