Chapter 66 The Japanese envoy comes to demand an explanation? Guards, drag him out and execute him!

Liu Laowu was a military strategist who rose to power through military force.

When he heard that Liu Fu had captured Chizhou City in the middle of the night, he was shocked beyond words!

How did Lao Ba (the Eighth Prince) break through Chizhou City?

"Damn it, we can't even figure out a way to break through the city, how did this kid manage to do it?"

Liu Laowu was so excited. Although he was swearing, he was actually overjoyed. In addition, he was a military enthusiast. If he didn't figure out this method of breaching the city as soon as possible, Liu Laowu wouldn't be able to sleep at all.

This is so tormenting!

At the same time, the generals of the Later Han Dynasty, upon learning the news, also inquired about the details and eventually came to see Liu Laowu to discuss the matter with him.

Liu Fu's capture of the city successfully piqued everyone's curiosity, and news of another great victory also spread.

Upon hearing that Liu Fu was about to enter the capital, Liu Laowu decided to lead all the civil and military officials to personally welcome his son.

Upon seeing Liu Fu in his imperial golden armor, riding a dragon horse with imposing grandeur, Liu Laowu was overjoyed.

Proud! So proud!

This is his own son, an unparalleled military genius!

The Later Han Dynasty had just unified China, but after more than two hundred years of fighting and killing, the Central Plains were left riddled with holes, and the people could not survive. The people of the Later Han Dynasty were exhausted.

At a time when morale was low and the people were demoralized, Liu Fu's appearance, his several great victories, and his torment of the Liao emperor in Liao territory truly boosted the morale of the Later Han dynasty.

Their triumphant return to the capital today is truly a sight to behold!

"Eighth Brother, you're back?"

Liu Laowu held his son's hand tightly, and tears welled up in his eyes with emotion.

"Good Eighth Prince, good son! I am so happy to have a son like you, and the Later Han Dynasty is so proud to have a prince like you!"

Liu Laowu became more and more excited as he spoke, and walked side by side with Liu Fu.

In the dead of night, in the palace, the eight sons and three daughters of the Liu family gathered together in celebration.

Liu Laowu, the father, personally cooked a few dishes and warmed several jars of wine. They ate a family meal together, chatting and laughing.

"Eighth Prince, in a few days at court, your father will bestow upon you a great title!"

Liu Laowu was extremely excited. The reason he did not immediately confer an imperial edict on Liu Fu was because he wanted to give Liu Fu special authority. At this moment, he was ordering craftsmen to speed up the production of a weapon of power.

Three days later, the more than ten million taels of silver, hundreds of thousands of bushels of grain, jewelry, military supplies, and other items seized from Chizhou City were all delivered to the Han capital under Zhou Zhenguo's escort.

When Liu Laowu saw the piles of silver and military rations, he was so moved that tears welled up in his eyes!

"The people are saved! The drought in Xijun and the snow disaster in Liaodong are both saved!"

"Let's go back immediately and write an imperial edict to distribute disaster relief grain and silver. The situation in our Later Han Dynasty is starting to improve, hahahaha!"

Seeing Liu Laowu so happy, like a 150-pound child, Liu Fu was happy for him too.

Finally, one day, Liu Laowu summoned Liu Fu and inquired about the details of the city's fall:

"Eighth Brother, I've always been curious about how you managed to break through the entire city of Chizhou in the middle of the night?"

"Given how fortified Chizhou City is, this shouldn't be the case!"

Liu Fu decided not to hide anything from his father.

"Dad, I have a secret. Do you want to know?"

Liu Laowu was taken aback:

"Secret? What secret?"

"Father, you must dismiss everyone else and leave only you in the Imperial Study before I can speak with you."

"It's best if we don't spread this information publicly right now."

Liu Laowu was even more stunned:

Is it that mysterious?

Liu Laowu complied, after all, his own son wouldn't harm him for no reason. The Liu family had risen from humble, honest farmers to become emperors, and over the years, they had always been a loving father and a filial son.

Liu Laowu immediately emptied the entire Imperial Study. Liu Fu then opened a corner of the Beast Breeding Ranch, revealing a unique spatial passage.

Liu Laowu peered into the entire space and was immediately taken aback, freezing in place!

What kind of space is this?

It's practically a giant zoo of behemoths!

A colossal beast as large as a mountain, the Suanni, three giant beasts, and the Qiongqi, which has wings on its ribs and can soar through the air!

In addition, there are dragon horses, tigers, lions, prairie ground otters, treasure-hunting rats...

Liu Laowu felt dizzy and disoriented.

At that moment, a giant gorilla suddenly stood up and sneezed, which sounded like a thunderclap in one's ear!

Liu Laowu was so frightened that he took several steps back and stood there stunned for a long time before he could react.

After calming down, Liu Laowu covered his heart with his hand and took several deep breaths.

He was absolutely shocked!

I never expected that Liu Fu would possess such a terrifying giant beast space!

He suddenly understood. With such a terrifying behemoth to help, breaking through Chizhou City would be a piece of cake.

After realizing what had happened, Liu Laowu, filled with immense shock, asked Liu Fu:

"Eighth Brother, where did you get these giant beasts from?"

Liu Fu, of course, wouldn't say he had a system with him, so he simply told a lie:

“Father, I had a dream a while ago. I dreamt that an immortal said I was a reincarnation of a celestial being, here to help you strengthen our Han people in the Central Plains. He said I have supernatural powers and magic that I can use, and he taught me how to use them in the dream. From then on, I was able to command these divine beasts.”

Liu Laowu was shocked to hear this, but at the same time his face lit up with joy!

"I knew it! I didn't misjudge him!"

Liu Laowu said excitedly:

"Eighth Prince, do you know why we haven't held court to officially confer titles on you for several days now?"

As he spoke, Liu Laowu took out the Longquan Shangfang sword hanging behind the dragon throne and unfurled it in front of Liu Fu:

"We have specially crafted a Longquan sword for you, so that you can act more easily in the future. The sword should be finished today. When we officially confer your title tomorrow, we will also bestow upon you a Longquan Shangfang sword. From now on, you can act first and report later."

Originally, Liu Laowu had some ideas about who should be the crown prince. His fifth son, Liu Yong, was adept at handling political affairs, and his seventh son, Liu Jia, was invincible in pacifying the country. These two princes were Liu Laowu's favorites.

However, since Liu Fu suddenly broke through the encirclement, he has also become one of the candidates for crown prince.

But now that Liu Fu has fully revealed his strength, it seems that Liu Laowu already has the answer in his heart: he will most likely be the future crown prince!

The next day, at the morning court session.

Liu Fu was finally summoned today, and the time had come for him to be granted the title of king.

After being a prince for so long, I can finally be a king.

Liu Fu and some other officials waiting to be summoned waited in the corridor outside the Golden Palace.

At this moment, several short men appeared in the distance, with samurai swords hanging at their waists, wearing white socks and wooden slippers, and sporting small mustaches.

Is this some kind of leisurely life?

Liu Fu immediately spotted several Japanese men. At the same time, the Japanese men also saw him and became furious, pointing at Liu Fu and chattering in a language he couldn't understand.

Liu Fu was furious and questioned Taiji beside him:

"What are these bastards doing here in our Great Han?"

"Your Highness, you killed the Japanese envoy in Liao last time. These Japanese have come to our court today to demand an explanation."

"What?"

"To demand an explanation?"

Liu Fu was furious and said:

"I'm already being lenient by not causing them any trouble, yet they dare to come all the way to the Han Dynasty to cause me trouble?"

"Guards, drag these Japanese envoys out and execute them!"
