Chapter Fifty-Seven: Two City Lords

Hearing that Xia Zixiu came to visit, the nineteenth princess was a little surprised, this new Xiyuan City Lord seemed to be coming too fast! The decree has just been announced, and it will come soon!

In fact, Xia Zixiu, like the nineteenth princess, was also very unhappy when he heard this appointment! It feels like the Seventh Princess has arranged a person of her own in her own territory, and she is still a princess! But Xia Zixiu can't help it, because Zhao Meng, who is now temporarily guarding Xiyuan City, is the general under the Seventh Princess, speaking of which, Xiyuan City can still maintain relative stability, and the Seventh Princess is indispensable!

Xia Zixiu still didn't dare to complain about the seventh princess, he had a deep grudge with the fourteenth princess of the sixth highness, and he couldn't look down on Xia Zeyuan, the king of Yong'an, and Xia Zeyuan, the king of Ming. His most friendly person is Xia Zewen, the king of Wen! Now that the troubled times are about to rise, I will never dare to offend the Seventh Princess!

Of course, Xia Zixiu also has his own judgment, he has followed his father to take care of Xiyuan City for three years, and he already has some foundation, not to mention that there are still 20,000 horses! It should be said that you are more proactive! I heard that this nineteenth princess doesn't have much strength, and her men and horses are pitiful!

But Xia Zixiu still couldn't wait to meet the nineteenth princess, he was afraid that the nineteenth princess would also want to be the fourteenth princess, so it would be difficult to coexist!

The fourteenth princess took a fancy to Xia Zixiu and took the initiative to confess, but Xia Zixiu politely refused! This led to one of his concubines being forcibly robbed by King Xia Zesheng afterwards, and he was forced to put on a green hat! This incident caused a lot of trouble in the imperial city at that time. Xia Zixiu's father, Xia Zhongkun, went to the emperor! But then it was reversed! led to the assassination of the concubine. In the end, it was over!

"Xia Zixiu see the princess!" Xia Zixiu entered the front hall and bowed. Although he is the lord of the city, one level higher than Xia Zhen'er, but the other party is a princess, so he has to salute first! This is also the place that made Xia Zixiu rush to be depressed!

"You're welcome, Xia City Lord, please take a seat!" The nineteenth princess said lightly.

The nineteenth princess took a closer look at Xia Zixiu. I can't help but be shocked when I see this! This Xia Zixiu is really the same as rumored, very handsome and chic! The figure is slender, the appearance is good, and the special temperament of the palace nobles on the body is very outstanding! It makes people feel good!

And after Xia Zixiu sat down, he also quietly looked at it, and his heart was also very surprised, this nineteenth princess was so delicate and beautiful, but her beauty was completely different from the fourteenth princess, it was a very reserved and elegant beauty! It's exciting!

"Princess, I received the holy decree and knew that the princess would go to Xiyuan City, and I was overjoyed, and I came to congratulate you! It is a great honor to be able to manage Xiyuan City with the princess! Xia Zixiu was originally dissatisfied, but now he suddenly has a very good impression of Xia Zhen'er, so what he said actually had such sincerity!

"Hmmm! This is also the trust of the father and the recommendation of the seventh sister! It is to let this princess go to the mayor of Xiyuan City to see for a long time, and when the time comes, I will ask Xia Junshou to give a lot of advice! The nineteenth princess is still comfortable with these kind words. But he does have a good impression of Xia Zixiu in front of him, he is humble and has a very Confucian style! I heard that Xia Zixiu is still a second-level martial artist, isn't this a talented man who is both civil and military! No wonder the fourteenth princess took the initiative to show her goodwill!

Without such deep hostility, the two city lords actually talked happily with each other, Xia Zixiu's literary style was outstanding, not worse than Ji Zhihui at all! Don't hurry to tell the nineteenth princess about some customs and local characteristics of Xiyuan City! The nineteenth princess actually nodded frequently when she heard it, and asked some questions from time to time, and asked the maid to serve tea to Xia Zixiu a few times! In the end, he also feasted Xia Zixiu in the mansion! Of course, this banquet could not have been at the residence of the little treasures!

As the accompanying Chief Wu and Wu Yue, the thoughts in their hearts are also completely different! Chief Wu frowned a little, this Xia Zixiu's diligence disgusted him, and the rumors about him and the fourteenth princess of the Sixth Highness have always been the mustard of Chief Wu.

And Wu Yue's feelings are similar to those of the Nineteenth Princess, and she also thinks that this Xia Zixiu is very good! Originally, she was also very dissatisfied with the position of deputy city lord! But now it's starting to be recognized! The mood of the girls is almost the same, and they all like such young talents!

When the banquet was over, Xia Zixiu also said goodbye in a very measured manner! This made the nineteen princesses feel a little unfinished! After Xia Zixiu left, he looked at the gifts he sent, which turned out to be very valuable fur and other specialties of Xiyuan City. And twenty more horses! This made the ninth princess very happy! The war horses guarded by her house were all bought with money, but the quality was average! And the twenty war horses sent by Xia Zixiu are very miraculous! Although it can't compare to those famous horses! But they have all been on the battlefield, and their foot strength and speed are very strong! It's much better than the existing war horses in the Princess's Mansion!

This made the Nineteenth Princess, Wu Yue and the others even more satisfied! This Xia Zixiu is still very good at doing things! Especially Wu Yue, she immediately rode a war horse and ran several laps in the martial arts arena, and when she stopped, she was still very excited! This horse was much faster than the one she had ridden!

"Uncle Wu! What do you think of these horses? The nineteenth princess also jumped off the war horse with satisfaction after a test ride, and then asked.

"It's a good horse! But the princess still has to pay attention, we don't know much about this Xia Zixiu! Don't be too gullible! Chief Wu reminded cautiously.

"I know! I just want to know more about Xiyuan City! Nothing else! The nineteenth princess said a little unpleasantly!

"Yes! Princess Mingjian! "Manager Wu also felt bored, after all, Xia Zixiu showed quite sincerity, maybe he was too cautious!

But what I didn't expect was that Xia Zixiu came again the next day, this time he was born and cooked, the nineteenth princess actually invited him to the Jiuqu Bridge in the house, Xia Zixiu also brought the piano, and the two actually played the piano and wrote poems here in the Jiuqu Bridge, and the scene was very poetic!

This time, even Chief Wu is not qualified to follow him! Wu Yue was even more not interested in these things, she was still interested in the twenty war horses! In the past two days, all the female guards have been fighting for these war horses, and everyone wants one! Now Wu Yue is really embarrassed!

And at this time, Ji Zhihui is a little indignant here in Zhu Xiaobao! I didn't expect this Xia Zixiu to please the princess so much!

Zhu Xiaobao didn't care about these things, he was busy reopening the furnace to build the treasure knife! Zhu Xiaobao has built a katana for himself! According to the length of the knife, this should be called 'Tai Dao' or 'Hit Knife', the knife body is bent as 'hit', and the knife body is bent down as 'Tai'! It's just that Zhu Xiaobao has made it shorter according to his own figure, the blade is two feet, and the handle is less than one meter, which should be called 'fighting the knife'!

The reason why he chose the katana was because he didn't need too heavy weapons, and besides, he thought this kind of knife was very practical! Since then, this knife has been recognized all over the world because it is very easy to use!

Although it is the same as the last time, this time it is much more proficient, and the casting technology has also been greatly improved. Colleague Zhu Xiaobao created two more one-foot-long short knives, which were made for Wu Yue and the Nineteenth Princess, in fact, unconsciously, Zhu Xiaobao would think about Wu Yue and the princess in everything he did!

Now Zhu Xiaobao and Ji Zhihan are sitting together drinking, he has just finished his work, so he has time to eat with Ji Zhichen!

"What a thing! It's not relying on the foundation he laid for him! Now I still want to seduce the princess! Don't look at yourself if you can do it! Ji Zhihui was very dissatisfied and complained, when he went to the nineteenth princess today, he happened to see Xia Zixiu, and he had to admit that Xia Zixiu's demeanor was indeed stronger than him! Although Ji Zhixi's appearance is not inferior to Xia Zixiu, he does not have that aristocratic temperament! That's cultivated by the heritage of a big family! It can't be imitated!

And the nineteenth princess was a little perfunctory about Ji Zhihan's report. In a few words, Ji Zhihui was sent away! Then I went to Jiuqu Bridge with Xia Zixiu, played the piano and wrote poems!

"Hey, hey! What does this have to do with you, is it possible that you still want to be a colt? Zhu Xiaobao couldn't help laughing, but he also felt a little sour in his heart! The speed of development seems to be a little faster!

"Whew! I'm worried about the princess! Are you going to Xia Zixiu to get those rumors? I heard he was a eunuch! Not a real man at all! Ji Zhihui whispered a little obscenely to the ear of the cancellation bar.

"How do you know about such a thing? It's all rumor-mongering, right? After all, they are so good, so some people spread rumors and slander! Zhu Xiaobao shook his head, he didn't want to bring this world to gossip everywhere!

"Hey, hey! Quite possibly true! At the beginning, he rejected the fourteenth princess, and then his concubine was snatched away by the Sixth Highness, and some said that the concubine followed the Sixth Highness herself! Because Xia Zixiu didn't have that ability, the little concubine couldn't help but suffer, so she took the initiative to run away with His Royal Highness the Sixth! Ji Zhihan said with a little schadenfreude.

"It can't be, right? If he doesn't have that ability, why does he marry his wife and concubine? Isn't that a waste? Zhu Xiaobao said suspiciously.

"Really, really, at this time, His Royal Highness the Sixth said it himself, and it spread all over the Imperial City at that time! His Royal Highness also clarified that it was not him who robbed people, but that the concubine herself was willing to run with him! As soon as this matter came out, Xia Zixiu didn't make a fuss, and then the concubine was assassinated! I heard that it was done by an absolute master! Ji Zhihui said vividly, and took a sip of wine from time to time. It seems that the depression in my heart has been released a lot!

"And then! That's it! Zhu Xiaobao was also taken aback, this thing is too terrifying, it kills people at every turn!

"So what! People are dead! But then things were a bit unexpected, Xia Zixiu married more than a dozen concubines in two years, and gave birth to two girls and a man one after another! Ji Zhihan said with a smile!

"That's not over! The facts prove that they are eloquent, and they are proving that they have no problem at all! Oops, he is really rich, and he has married more than a dozen concubines in two years! Tsk, big spending! Zhu Xiaobao shook his head and sighed.

"Hey, hey! But I always feel that this thing is very strange, in the first few years, I couldn't give birth to a single one, but at a critical time, I actually gave birth to three at once! And then it didn't produce again! Isn't that a little weird? Ji Zhihui said a little hintly!
