As Qin Fei had predicted back then, when Cai Wei finished telling her story, the emperor ordered someone to put away the sharp knife. When Mary's story was finished, the Emperor asked the two of them directly what they wanted.

"Do you want to pardon the rebels of the Toyota family? It's a bit tricky! These things have always been handled by the general, and I don't need to bother with them. ”

This time, Cai Wei didn't hear the coldness in the emperor's hoarse voice, but she heard a trace of helplessness.

She thought for a while and said, "Your Majesty the Emperor, you are the monarch of the Fusang Kingdom, although the general is your grandfather, but also your courtier, and the face of the Emperor is the most noble in this country." What's more, those rebellious ministers in your mouth have been wandering at sea for more than ten years, and the general must not mind pardoning their past sins after severely punishing them, as a sign of leniency. ”

"Zhou Jun, you are really a very good talker! I will keep my word, and until I fulfill your wishes, I will ask you to stay here for a while and tell me stories every day. ”

Seeing that they had been living in this palace for more than 20 days, His Majesty the Emperor still had no intention of letting them go. Whenever they asked, the Emperor always said in a hoarse voice: "I have not yet fulfilled your request, so please calm down." I wonder what unique story the two of you will bring to me today, which really makes me curious? ”

Cai Wei is okay, she can still calm down, but Ma Li is a little panicked, "Wei, this emperor's ability is really bad, how long do we have to wait here, so we can tell it day and night, seven or eight stories a day, and the stories I know are almost finished for her!" ”

She was about to complain, but Cai Wei suddenly stopped her, "Shhhh ”

The door of the Japanese-style house was pushed open, and a maid dressed in green walked in with her head bowed.

Ma Li saw that she had closed the door as soon as she entered, and she felt a little strange in her heart, but what made her even more strange was Cai Wei's behavior.

The princess, dressed as a man, took advantage of the green-clothed maid's back to close the door, and rushed directly to her, and out of nowhere conjured a sharp blade five or six inches long, extremely narrow, and shaped like a long needle, against her waist.

"Who are you? Why did you come into our house in the guise of a maid, and what was your plan? If you don't tell us the truth, we'll shout for help and let the guards arrest you? ”

Cai Wei has been dealing with Fusang people for more than a month, she is already smart by nature, and she learns everything very quickly, not to mention that this Fusang country not only copies the text of Huaxia, but also refers to the pronunciation a lot. Because of this, she learned Fusang dialect faster than learning Xilan, and in just these dozens of days, she can already speak a lot of Fusang language.

After she finished speaking a string of Fusang words, it took a long time before she heard a man's voice say weakly: "Princess, your subordinates are not Fusang people, your subordinates are Qiu Wu!" ”

"Ahh

"Ahh

Cai Wei and Ma Li let out an exclamation one after another.

Cai Wei heard the sound of this maid walking before, it was not like the sound of the maid walking in this palace, and when she came in, her head was almost down to the bottom of her neck, her hands and feet were very uncomfortable, and she didn't understand the etiquette rules in this palace. The most important thing is his height, there are few men in Fusang country, let alone women.

So Cai Wei concluded that this person should be someone from outside the palace, most likely a man, she thought it was a ninja sent by the Toyota family, because she waited too long and didn't get the news of pardoning their family, so she sent someone to Kyoto to investigate, but she never imagined that this suspicious person would be Qiu Wu!

Although the voice sounded absolutely right, Cai Wei still said, "Turn around and let me see!" ”

When Qiu Wu turned around, Cai Wei and Ma Li stared at his face with moth eyebrows and painted □□ for a long time before they recognized him. Cai Wei was fine, but she smiled, but Ma Li was trembling with laughter, and her tears were about to burst into laughter.

Thinking that he is a big man, it is already depressing enough to put on a woman's clothes in desperation, and he has to pretend to be a woman from the Japanese country, wearing such a green dress, and painting his face like a ghost painting, Qiu Wu really thinks about it, the more he feels that he has no face to see people, and he can't wait to find a hole in the ground to bury himself.

After Cai Wei smiled, countless questions immediately surged in her heart, "Qiu Wu, why did you come here?" Did you escape on your own, or have the Toyota family been pardoned? ”

Qiu Wu immediately fell to his knees with a puff, and said in his heart: "It's still the princess who is sympathetic to her subordinates, in the end, she is a big thing, unlike that Fanbang woman who knows how to watch jokes there!" ”

"Back to the princess, as early as ten days ago, the people of the Toyota family had been pardoned by the shogun, and this widow was still trustworthy, and as soon as he was exempted from the crime, he let us go, threw us a small boat, and let us row back to Daqin on our own. But if we don't see the princess, we won't leave Fusang even if we die. ”

"We were discussing how to go to Kyoto to find the princess, but those thieves raised by bitches actually rushed over in a boat and shot at us, and we questioned them, only to know that the emperor had given them a secret order, ordering them to kill all of us, so they released people first and then killed."

"And then?" Cai Wei said urgently.

"I think even God can't see the treachery of this gang of stinky thieves, and suddenly a storm broke out on the sea, and the fog was filled, and although we killed and injured several brothers, we still escaped a few people, and by the fog, we swam back to Fuso."

Cai Wei knew that the shogun would definitely approve the emperor's invitation, after all, he couldn't always let this emperor cut off people's ears to play if he had nothing to do, right? It is said that more than 20 people have had their ears cut off by the emperor in the past six months, and there is no shortage of people in this world who want to hit the luck, but they have failed, and they are only one pair of ears less, and they will not become deaf. But if you cut off dozens of ears every year, it will always be bad for the emperor's reputation.

However, although she guessed that the shogunate would issue a pardon order, and was vaguely worried that the emperor would not let them go, she didn't expect that the emperor would even kill them if he wanted to leave her and Ma Li in Fuso forever to tell him stories for the rest of his life?

Ma Li said worriedly, "Wei, the Emperor of Fuso doesn't want us to stay here all the time to tell her stories, right?" I'm almost done telling my story, and when I can't tell it, will he cut off my ear? ”

This, Cai Wei really can't answer her, because this emperor is too mysterious and unpredictable, and a little moody, and can't guess it with common sense at all.

Qiu Wu knew that time was pressing, so it was easy for him to disguise himself and sneak in, in addition to finding the princess, he also had amazing news to tell her. Hurriedly said: "Princess, don't worry about this for now, my subordinates heard a great news half a month ago, Your Highness has guarded Quanzhou!" Not only did they hold it, but they also beat the Tartars back! ”

"What did you say?" As soon as she heard Qin Fei's news, Cai Wei immediately felt uncomfortable, he was still alive, he was still alive! Quanzhou City is still there!

"The details of the situation, the subordinates don't know, but I heard the Fusang people say that His Royal Highness got the help of General Zheng Yihu and won the battle in Quanzhou, and Yingzhou Island is still in our hands."

This is simply the best news she has heard these days, as for the details, she can only know when she returns to Quanzhou, but the question is, how can she return to her homeland, return to Quanzhou, and return to Qin Fei's side now that she has become the emperor's royal storyteller.

Qiu Wu came up with an idea on the side and said: "Princess, my subordinates will take you away, our people are waiting by the sea, I ordered them to prepare the boat, and as soon as you arrive, we will set sail back to ......." ”

Before he could finish his sentence, there was a commotion outside, and someone shouted, "There are assassins, protect the emperor!" ”

"It seems that you have been discovered by the Fuso people, hurry up and wash your face, find a Fuso warrior to knock you unconscious, change into his clothes and run away, don't pretend to be a maid anymore, you are so short in life, as long as you forget to curl up and shrink your body, anyone can see that something is wrong with you."

Qiu Wu hurriedly said: "But I'm leaving, what should I do with the princess?" ”

Cai Wei asked rhetorically: "Can you take me away now?" Even if this Fusang Imperial Palace is not as heavily guarded as the Great Qin Palace, but those Fuso warriors and ninjas are not vegetarians, you will never be able to take the two of us with the power of one person today. ”

"You go out first, and with you outside, I'll find a way to get out." After Cai Wei finished speaking, while he was washing his face, he thought about it intently, and finally told him again, and drove him out of the side door.

As soon as she closed the side door, the middle-aged woman closest to Emperor Guangmei, Lady Zihime, had already led a team of Fuso samurai in, saying that there were assassins in the palace, and they wanted to search carefully for the safety of the two distinguished guests.

Anyway, the assassins had already run away from their house, and Cai Wei calmly let them search them. Seeing that those warriors searched meticulously for a long time and found nothing, she was about to raise her hand to see off the guests, but she didn't want Mrs. Ziji to suddenly say: "His Majesty the Emperor has an order, and only Zhou Jun will be invited to accompany him tonight and give a lecture for His Majesty." ”

Cai Wei was slightly shocked in her heart, she and Ma Li had always gone to tell stories to the emperor for more than 20 days, why did she go alone tonight?

To her surprise, before evening, Lady Shihime had asked her to accompany her, but instead of going to the Emperor's residence, where they used to tell the Emperor, she led her towards the garden.

"His Majesty the Emperor has prepared sake and food in the Huayin Pavilion, and this is to dine with Zhou Jun! The concubine has been waiting for His Majesty for so many years, and it is the first time that he has seen His Majesty willing to have someone to dine with him! ”

Faced with Cai Wei's question, Lady Zi Ji replied with a smile.

"Zhou Jun must take advantage of such a good opportunity! Don't let down the love of His Majesty the Emperor for you! ”
