Not long after, Zhao Rui walked in from outside the hall, looking a little dusty.
Ziyun who was following him still looked like a clay monkey.
After capturing Tuyuhun City, the two men rushed back to Luo City without taking a moment's rest.
Along the way, the group of them almost ate and drank on horseback, and had to spend time checking the mountains and terrain to find a shortcut from Tuyuhun City to Dashang. They had no time to pack their bags.
Zhao Rui strode up to the main hall. Whether he didn't see the map under his feet or did it on purpose, he stepped directly on it, with a majestic air that towered over the mountains and rivers.
"My lord, Zhao Rui, submit your order to Your Majesty!"
"King Zhao, there is no need to be polite!" Murong Bing hurriedly stepped forward to support Zhao Rui's body.
If this wasn't the court, I'm afraid she would have slipped into Zhao Rui's arms.
"Where did you come back from? Why are you like this! And we haven't received any news of the army's return to the court!"
As soon as these words were asked, there was a hint of suspicion in the eyes of all the civil and military officials present.
They looked so dusty and covered in mud, and only two people came back. Could it be that they suffered a defeat and lost all their troops?
But no one in the court dared to ask these questions.
The majestic King Zhao was the leader among thousands of people, and even the Emperor of Shang obeyed his words.
If you really want to make him unhappy, not only will your head be moved, but even the Nine Clans may not be spared.
Zhao Ruike didn't care what these people were thinking. He turned around and waved to Ziyun beside him.
Ziyun understood immediately, took off the leather bag he carried with him, and poured out two maps.
Zhao Rui took out the writing brush from his body, drooled casually, and compared it with the map in his hand, he sketched on the vast underground map.
This confused all the civil and military officials present, but they did not dare to lean too far forward, so they could only stand on tiptoes and watch from a distance.
But the important ministers in the court didn't care about this, especially those who were named Dukes of the Kingdom. They stepped forward one after another and came to Zhao Rui's side.
After he finished drawing, Sima Shang stroked his beard and pointed at the lines he had just drawn.
"I wonder what these lines drawn by King Zhao represent?"
Zhao Rui immediately handed over his hand: "This is the shortcut to enter Tubo that we found along the way!"
As soon as these words came out, all the civil and military officials present were stunned for a moment.
It seems that the place where Zhao Rui drew the line has gone deep into the territory of Tubo. Is it possible that he came from Tubo?
Sima Shang was also shocked: "King Zhao went to Tubo?"
"Not bad!" Zhao Rui took off King Yu's sword, held it directly at Gaochangguo's position with the scabbard, and then drew a line directly to Tuyuhun City.
"All the cities on this line are now the territory of my Great Shang! As a top priority, I need to urgently mobilize a group of craftsmen from the Ministry of Industry to go here to dig mountains and build roads to build a road for my Great Shang army to enter Tubo."
Everyone was shocked there, and everyone's eyes focused on Zhao Rui.
They were still discussing the attack on Tubo just now, but they did not expect that Zhao Rui had already opened up the channel connecting Gaochang State and Dashang, directly running a road through Tubo.
