Chapter 519 Niangniang, my aunt is going to be snatched away
After the beginning of spring, the ice and snow melted, the road conditions improved, and caravans from all over the country flocked to the city, and Xidu became lively again.
Many caravans traveling to and from Xidu were surprised to find that after a winter, the roads in Xidu had changed greatly, from the mud and gravel roads to the wide and solid stone avenues, the wheels were rolling, the road was smooth and smooth, and the journey was much faster.
Seeing this scene, a merchant of a caravan who traveled back and forth to Xidu to do business all the year round couldn't help but sigh: "Xiguo is really a day by day, the development is too fast, last autumn, this section of the road was just a gravel and mud road, and in a blink of an eye, it became a solid stone avenue!"
Another businessman answered: "With the current development speed of Xiguo, I'm afraid it won't be long before all parts of Xiguo are such good roads, and the roads are connected, I'm afraid that my stay in the country for ten years will not be as good as Xiguo's development for one year!"
"Who said it wasn't..."
......
The carriage rolled forward, and Shang Jia's emotion attracted the attention of a middle-aged man in a fancy costume, he was a Qi refiner in Jiang Guo, a four-grade cultivator, and he came to Xiguo to talk about the matchmaking on the order of the nobles.
The reason is that the nobleman's staff came to Xi to practice, and he respected the king of Xi and praised him again and again, claiming that he was worthy of friendship, and the nobleman was also quite moved after hearing about it, so he sent him to Xi Guo as a matchmaker, intending to marry Jiang's granddaughter to King Xi, and the two countries formed an alliance and friendship.
When the middle-aged man first received this assignment, he was still full of slander in his heart.
Jiang Guo is a principality, the monarch Jiang Gong is even more powerful, the deep Son of Heaven is heavy, prominent for a while, and Xi Guo is just a mere country, and it is located in a reckless land, and the noble girl marries far away, which is undoubtedly wronged.
However, the middle-aged man came to the Southern Wasteland Realm, and after hearing a lot of rumors about Xiguo, his mentality changed subtly.
Hearing the envy of Xiguo with the feelings of the fellow merchants, he immediately became more and more curious, walked over, and after a conversation with these merchants, he asked:
"Xiguo has only been promoted from a small country to a country in recent years, and its national strength is really so good, paving roads and repairing bridges is a big project, and if it is not done well, it will cost the people and money, and the country will not be a country, Xibo is not too impatient, listen to you, Xiguo still sends people to work in winter!"
When Shang Jiajia heard this, he immediately shook his head and retorted: "Eh, you are not from the Southern Wilderness, you don't know how powerful Xiguo is, the people of Xiguo are living well, where do you come from to work and lose money, people Xiguo is so amazing, the people are all well-governed, and slaves are more capable than civilians abroad, one top two!"
Shang Jiayi: "That's right! Xiguo is so powerful, we can't say how much, but the contemptible people did business with Xiguo in the early years, and watched Xiguo from a remote town back then to the most prosperous and richest place in the Southern Wilderness step by step, and King Xiaoxi's ability to govern the country is absolutely powerful." ”
Shang Jiajia: "This is reasonable, the contemptible people have traveled to the south and the north, and there are no less than 100 vassal countries that have traveled, but there is no one who can compare with the king of Xi, well, to be precise, not even half of the king of Xi." ”
Shang Jia Bing: "Hahahaha, I praise this for a long time, the world often says that the monarch of Izumo is a hero, and he is the lord of the prosperity of Izumo country, and he is expected to lead Izumo country to become a new generation of overlords of the Southern Wilderness, but in my opinion, Xi Guoguo will become the new overlord of the Southern Wilderness one step ahead of Izumo country!"
"Hahahaha, brother Tai Gao!"
......
The middle-aged man's "fishing problem" aroused the attention of the businessmen, and in a short time, more and more businessmen participated in the discussion.
Even the male lords of Chu Hou and Izumo Bo have no awe at all, and there are no taboos, but once they mention Xiguo, all the businessmen show respect on their faces, and when they mention the monarch Yao Yun, they use honorifics, calling "King Xi", and less "Xibo".
Such discoveries made the middle-aged man feel novel, as if his whole worldview had been refreshed, and he had never seen merchants and people from other countries have such respect for the kings of other countries.
"Why do you respect King Xi? I admire King Xi for being able to live a good life for the people in the country, I heard that last winter, King Xi broke through to become a three-grade Qi refiner, tsk, a three-grade Fengbo realm powerhouse who is less than twenty years old, in the past, some people always said that King Xi has the ability to govern the country, and his talent in practicing is not high, hahaha, who else says this now, give you an ear scraper!"
"Hahahaha, no one must have said it! But I heard that the monarch of Chu intends to marry his daughter to King Xi, and the dowry is all good, so he is waiting for someone to make peace. ”
"Hey, Chu Hou also means this? I heard that the Mo Kingdom is going to marry the eldest princess to the Xi Kingdom, and the person who said that the relatives will arrive in the Xi capital as soon as the spring starts, and I don't know if the King of Xi has responded. ”
"Alas, it can't be drip so quickly, I heard that many clans in Wu and Yue also have this thought..."
"Yes, I heard that the Son of Heaven also intends to marry the emperor to King Xi. ”
"Who said it, is this news true or false .... I heard that King Xi was also the emperor's son, and the two are also a good match, and I approve of this marriage!"
......
The middle-aged man listened with interest at first, and his impression of Xiguo and Xibo Yao Yun in his heart changed greatly, thinking that it would not be insulting for a noble girl to marry Xiguo.
But then he listened to the merchants of various countries discussing the princes of all walks of life, and the major clans were interested in marrying Xiguo, and his face suddenly changed.
In the past, he thought that his trip should be very smooth, and the declining Xiguo could marry Jiang Guo, who was in full swing, wasn't that Gao Pan, how could Xibo have a reason to refuse.
But now...... This King Xi is simply a golden nest, everyone wants to get involved, and it is hot.
......
Ten thousand caves in Qingqiu Mountain!
"Niangniang, it's not good, it's not good!
The tranquil and quiet morning was broken by a babbling sound, disturbing people's dreams.
The tassel lying lazily on the jade bed woke up slowly, and when she heard this cry, she was still in a trance: "Uncle, what uncle!"
A snow-white nine-tailed fox jumped in front of the tassel, turned into a human form, and knelt on the ground: "Hui Niangniang, aunt... It's the king, he's getting married, and he's going to marry a wife and a concubine!"
"What!Yao Yun is getting married?" Tassel sat up vigorously, although her face was a solemn and dignified goddess demeanor, but the urgent gaze betrayed her true thoughts in her heart.
The little vixen was stared at by his own mother, and immediately panicked, and stammered and explained: "No... No, the king hasn't said who he wants to marry, but now that Xidu has come to talk about matchmaking, behind them are either the princes of one side or the clan members, and the eldest princess is the daughter of the princes...... Woo woo, my uncle is going to be snatched away. ”
