Chapter 704: Deliberate Delay (4000)(2/2)
"Sir, a dwarf who claims to be the envoy of Yamatai Kingdom has come to ask for an audience with a woman. He is now waiting outside the house."
Dian Wei quickly came in from outside and reported to Wu Liang.
"Finally I couldn't hold my breath any longer."
Wu Liang, as if he had expected it, said to Dian Wei with a smile, "Invite them in, I will meet them in the living room."
"promise."
Dian Wei responded and went out to invite people.
Wu Liang, on the other hand, unhurriedly called Bao Rou in to help him change into more formal clothes, and then went to the living room unhurriedly.
Wait until he arrives.
The tea on the table in front of Qilitong and Hu was no longer hot.
However, their faces did not show the slightest hint of impatience. When they saw Wu Liang, they quickly stood up and bowed to salute.
"Sit down, don't be formal."
Wu Liang waved his hand and walked straight to the main seat.
"Thank you Taishi Wu."
Qilitong and Hu finally straightened up after Wu Liang sat down and carefully sat back in their seats...
It has to be said that the Japanese people are very good at these etiquette.
However, Wu Liang would not have too much affection for them because of this. As a time traveler from later generations, he had long been dissatisfied with the Japanese people's behavior of "knowing small etiquette but not great righteousness, fearing power but not being moral."
As we know, this style of behavior was not just during World War I and World War II, it had appeared in the history books of the Celestial Dynasty since ancient times.
"Why did you come to my house to ask for an audience?"
Wu Liang smiled and asked calmly.
"?"
As soon as these words came out, Qili Tong immediately felt like a lump in his throat.
What is the question?
A few days ago, in the court hall, didn't His Majesty, the Emperor of the Han Dynasty, order you to help me find the whereabouts of Lord Xu of Qin?
I have been waiting for several days, and I really couldn't wait for you, so I had to take the initiative to visit you. As a result, you looked like you had completely forgotten...
However, Qilitong's reaction was not slow, and he quickly adjusted his mood. Then he saluted Wu Liang and said with a smile: "It is really rude to come to the house to disturb me. Please forgive Wu Taishi. Actually, I just want to ask.
Ask Wu Taishi, what are Wu Taishi's plans for the matters that His Majesty the Emperor decided a few days ago?"
"What is the matter that His Majesty has decided?"
Wu Liang looked suspicious.
"..."
Qili Tong felt a little bad. He had never seen such a dishonest minister. He could even forget everything the emperor told him. If he didn't take him out and behead him, how could he keep it for the New Year?
"oh"
As soon as he finished speaking, Wu Liang finally showed a look of realization, patted his thigh and said, "You mean looking for Xu Fu's whereabouts, right? This matter is not trivial, and I haven't found any clues worth pursuing yet.
Therefore, I think we should take a long-term approach. As the saying goes, you don’t need to be too impatient. You can stay here for now and wait until I find the exact clues before setting off, so as not to waste a lot of time."
Seeing Wu Liang's evasive and procrastinating attitude, Qili Tong suddenly became a little anxious and couldn't help but said: "How come there are no clues? Some of the existing history books of the Han Dynasty clearly recorded many events related to Xu Jun of Qin.
Information?"
"Is there any?"
