Datang: Longevity for Thousands of Years, Exposed by Xiao Sizi

"The countries that I have been directly arguing with these past two days are none other than the six countries. I'm not sure whether it's Tubo, Daqin, Nanzhao, or Waguo."

"But no matter which country it is, the impact is not big. We just need to let other envoys know that the envoys of these countries are petty. Just because I produced some evidence, they want to attack me. Anyone who dares to cooperate with such a country without bottom line and principles should be prepared to be betrayed."

"I want to see who dares to cooperate with them after what happened."

He waved his hand and said, "Just throw the body to the post station, and then tell all the envoys that I, Shen Lian, was assassinated. After investigation, the assassin was a secret guard of a certain country. Who is it specifically? Because I don't want to delay the progress of the Ten Thousand Nations Parliament, I will not discuss it for now! I hope that country can restrain itself. Otherwise, if this happens again, I will never let it go."

Jinyiwei blinked when he heard Shen Lian's words: "Commander Shen, do you know which country he was sent from?"

Shen Lian chuckled: "Of course I don't know, but... As the saying goes, a person's reputation is like a tree's shadow. If I say I don't know, maybe those guys won't believe it."

"So why not just let them think I know, and then let them scare themselves and reveal their true colors? Isn't that better?"

The two Jinyiwei looked at each other.

I couldn't help but nod my head repeatedly.

Not to mention the envoys.

Even they felt that Shen Lian was fooling them...
With Commander Shen's ability, how could there be something that Commander Shen doesn't know.

So, if even they think so, others will think so too!

In this case, the envoy sent out by the Jinyiwei would definitely be terrified and might not even be able to sleep soundly. After all, he is not sure when Shen Lian will take revenge on him!

In this way... maybe he will really be exposed!
Shen Lian laughed and said, "Okay, it's getting late. The envoys are probably going to rest. Go quickly, before they fall asleep. Make the envoy worried and scared, and say goodbye to sleep from now on."

Jinyiwei: ".......ruthless, Commander Shen is still the most ruthless!"

However, despite their feelings, the two Jinyiwei still took quick action.

Soon, he left with the corpse.

At this time, Shen Lian stretched slightly.

In fact, he could probably guess which country the envoy came from.

After all, at this time, sending secret guards to deal with him is tantamount to being a stupid act.

Neither the Arab Empire nor the Tubo prince was so stupid.

Therefore, it is definitely not something a big country can do to make such a decision and send out such a stupid and arrogant secret guard envoy.

Therefore, the scope is narrowed down a lot.

There are only one or two targets.

However, Shen Lian's purpose is not to find out the person behind the scenes, but to consider the bigger picture.

And even if there was no secret guard, Shen Lian was prepared to direct and act out the assassination scene himself.

But I didn't expect that someone would cooperate with me so much.

This really surprised Shen Lian!
After all, this is more realistic and has fewer loopholes.

And up to now, all the preliminary preparations have been officially completed.

Preparations on the eve of the Parliament of All Nations have been completed.

Next, it will be the real battlefield of this visit of all nations - the Parliament of All Nations!

A parliament that can completely change the world!
The real show is finally about to begin!
And all the preparations Shen Lian had made before will begin to truly demonstrate their value.

Shen Lian's eyes flickered slightly and the corners of his mouth rose slightly.

"Beichen, the chessboard has been set up, the layout has been perfected, and next... it's time to really control the chess pieces to kill! But how many chess pieces do you have left? And which chess piece are you...preparing to strike me with a thunderbolt?"

"I am waiting for you."

The next day.

After getting up in the morning, Shen Lian went to his office near the envoy's residence and sat there for the whole morning. Then after lunch, he slowly went to the post station.

After arriving at the post station, Shen Lian stopped in front of the sign in the courtyard of the post station.

Looking at the sign, he saw that the quota for the Thirty-Sixth Courtyard of Tiangang was full.

Among the 72 Disha courtyards, except for the 71st courtyard which no one chose, the rest have been occupied.

The last courtyard was occupied by Japanese envoys.

The second to last one is empty.

The envoys from other countries all tried to choose the front courtyard as much as possible. For example, Japan chose the last courtyard on the first day of their arrival, which was considered to be unique.

Although there is still one courtyard left empty, a vacant space has been created due to the annihilation of the Bolor envoys.

There are a total of one hundred and seven countries.

It includes all the countries around the Tang Dynasty, no matter how big or small.

Even during the most prosperous period of the Tang Dynasty in history, it was no more than this.

"Commander Shen, you are here."

At this time, Zhao Hai from the Honglu Temple came over.

Shen Lian nodded slightly, and without turning his head, he asked: "What is the atmosphere among these envoys?"

Zhao Hai smiled bitterly and shook his head, "The atmosphere is terrible."

"On the first day, many envoys gathered together to discuss something secretly. But later, some envoys' residences were occupied and driven away by envoys from powerful countries. The relationship between these envoys became delicate."

"The envoys from the Tiangang Court and the Disha Court seem to have a clear distinction between them. They don't like each other."

"After that, the Bolor envoys were annihilated, and Commander Shen also produced evidence that the six Turkic countries were suspects. Then these six countries were almost isolated. Before, there were many envoys from small countries trying to curry favor with them, but now... those envoys from small countries seem to be afraid of becoming the next Bolor, and they stay away from them when they see them."

After all, the post station is a post station of the Tang Dynasty.

There are countless eyeliners inside.

The envoys of these countries may think that they are doing things very secretly, but in the eyes of Zhao Hai, Shen Lian and others, it is tantamount to that their whole bodies are emitting a dazzling light, and they cannot hide anything they do.

Therefore, Zhao Hai saw all these things clearly.

Zhao Hai was also very emotional when he said this.

When these envoys first arrived at the post station, they were united in their hatred of the enemy and were very difficult to deal with. Zhao Hai felt bad at the time. If these envoys united to deal with the Tang Dynasty, the Tang Dynasty might really suffer a great loss.

After all, it is the trend of the times.

He was really worried to death at that time.

But who knew that in less than three days.

In just two and a half days, this stable alliance was easily broken up by Qin Wenyuan.

Now, these envoys, let alone working together, don’t even dare to trust each other.

Even the foundation of trust in the alliance is gone.

This is really fatal to the alliance!

He looked at Shen Lian and said with emotion: "And last night, before these envoys were about to rest, another Jinyiwei brought a corpse and asked these envoys to claim it."

"I heard from the Royal Guards that..."

Zhao Hai looked at Shen Lian: "Is this man a secret guard of a certain country and assassinated Commander Shen?"

Shen Lian knew that Zhao Hai might think that he was crying wolf, so he smiled and said, "Don't look at me like that. I, Shen Lian, did intend to cry wolf, but this guy was not me, he was a real assassin." He smiled and said, "How was the effect?"

"Okay!"

Zhao Hai exclaimed: "If the effect is amazing, those envoys will hear that this is the thief who assassinated Commander Shen, and they will quickly shake their heads and wave their hands, saying that it is not their secret guards."

"Then, probably some envoys who had some hatred for the other party spoke up directly, saying that they seemed to have seen this person in the other team, and then... they almost got into a fight."

"Everyone is really worried about themselves. On the one hand, they are afraid of being misunderstood, and on the other hand, they are very wary of others! Because since the thieves dared to attack Commander Shen in Chang'an, it means they will definitely dare to attack them, so... now, they really don't dare to trust anyone, and everyone looks like a guy with bad intentions."

Shen Lian's eyebrows curved when he heard this.

"It seems that the effect is really good. Now I can rest assured."

Shen Lian smiled and said, "Originally, I was worried that I would not be able to destroy the trust and alliance between them at the beginning of the Ten Thousand Nations Congress, so that my Tang Dynasty would be suppressed and forced at the Congress. But now... there is no need to worry. Even if some guys are deliberately acting for us, there are definitely many envoys who really don't dare to believe anyone."

"As long as they don't have complete trust, I have a way to dominate the parliament."

Zhao Hai understood Shen Lian’s painstaking efforts.

He knew how much effort Shen Lian had put in to create such a situation.

It seems that Shen Lian takes every step with ease.

But in fact, every word Shen Lian said and every thing he did was well thought out.

It seems easy, but in fact, I don’t know how long I thought about it before finally using it in the most appropriate way.

He looked at Shen Lian and said, "I believe Commander Shen will definitely be able to gain enough benefits for the Tang Dynasty."

Shen Lian smiled: "Of course."

"The reason why they want to use this negotiation method to suppress our Tang Dynasty instead of sending troops to plunder the Tang Dynasty is because of the countless loyal bones buried under our feet."

"I have defended this country with my blood and lives. No matter what I say, I will not let this country lose even an inch of its power in my hands."

Zhao Hai paused after hearing this.

He couldn't help but look at Shen Lian.

Under the shining light, Shen Lian's whole body seemed to be emitting light.

The young man stood on the ground.

Carry the sky on your shoulders!

"All right."

At this time, Shen Lian suddenly laughed and said, "Lord Zhao, please send someone to notify all the envoys and tell them that the Parliament of All Nations will be convened starting tomorrow. Let them prepare for it."

"Tomorrow? So urgent?" Zhao Hai was a little surprised.

Shen Lian said calmly: "It's just taking advantage of the situation. Everyone is emotionally unstable right now, so this is a rare opportunity."

"and……."

Shen Lian's eyes sparkled: "Someone promised to give me, Shen Lian, a big gift. I can't wait to know what gift he will give me as a token of his loyalty, so I will give him a chance. I hope he won't let me down."

Zhao Hai's face was full of confusion.

What kind of gift?
He doesn't understand at all.

Shen Lian did not explain. He walked towards Dishayuan and said, "Let's do this. Zhao Siqing will pass on the message. I will go to Dishayuan to express my condolences and be a good person to see if I can poach some people."

"By the way, give me the list of envoys who will be driven away. These people are most suitable to be backup."

Zhao Hai: “…….”

Although he didn't know what the term "spare tire" meant, he always felt that Commander Shen had bad intentions.

He couldn't help mourning for those envoys.

Being driven away is bad enough.

Now Shen Lian is targeting him again.

He was really worried that these guys would eventually be eaten by Shen Lian until there was not even a bone left.

In this way, Shen Lian began his training as the Sea King.

Send warmth, give condolences, raise fish in fish ponds, and cultivate spare tires...
Time just passes slowly like this.

Finally, the next day dawned.

The time for the Parliament of Nations has come.

On this day, Shen Lian got up at daybreak.

He put on a proper official robe and carefully adjusted his appearance in front of the bronze mirror.

Today is the day when the Parliament of All Nations officially convenes.

And I will attend this meeting on behalf of the Tang Dynasty.

Therefore, Shen Lian also took it very seriously.

After all, Li Shimin would not participate until the Parliament of All Nations reached a final decision.

All the bargaining, forming cliques, creating advantages, etc. in the early stage were handled by Shen Lian alone.

It can be said that in the next few days, every decision made by Shen Lian will determine the future direction of the Tang Dynasty and the development direction of the entire world.

Li Shimin had absolute trust in him. Except for the last day when Li Shimin needed to formally sign the agreement, Shen Lian would be fully responsible at all other times.

Therefore, Shen Lian was usually lazy and didn't care about those envoys, but today, he was serious and meticulous.

When only representing himself, Shen Lian can act as he pleases.

As he can represent the image of a country, Shen Lian does not allow himself to have any problems.

The country was won by the blood of the soldiers, and the majesty of the Tang Dynasty was exchanged for the lives of the ancestors. Shen Lian would not allow anyone to look down on him because of himself.

After carefully making sure that there was nothing wrong with him, Shen Lian pushed the door open and walked out.

When he went out, he saw three people standing outside waiting for him.

Abao, Ali, and Shen Lian’s student Li Xiangyin.

Normally, Shen Lian let Li Xiangyin study with those nobles. After all, Li Xiangyin is still young. Although his abilities are no worse than those of adults, studying is not a bad thing at this age.

Shen Lian felt that it was necessary for Li Xiangyin to read more books, get to know more people of the same age, accumulate some connections, and learn some skills.

So when Li Xiangyin had nothing to do, he would be sent to the school by his teacher Shen Lian.

But today, Shen Lian specifically called Li Xiangyin over.

Because he wanted Li Xiangyin to personally feel the atmosphere of the Wanfang Conference and let Li Xiangyin see the true faces of other countries.

Let Li Xiangyin understand a truth.

If a country wants to stand in the world, it must have a strong fist.

Any promise, any alliance is a joke in the face of interests.
