Chapter 68: King Wen (Part II)

As soon as the nineteenth princess said this, King Wen and the princess looked at Zhu Xiaobao in great surprise, this little fat man didn't look like a strong martial artist, how could he save the life of the nineteenth princess?

"When I was in the fourteenth sister's mansion, I was hit into the lotus pond by a wicked slave, and he jumped into the water to rescue me, so I promised to free him from slavery!" In the blink of an eye, the nineteenth princess turned the culprit of her falling into the water into a loyal and brave subordinate who bravely saved the princess. Speaking of this, the nineteenth princess also covered her mouth and smiled secretly.

"Oh! I see, it should, it should, such a loyal and brave person should be rewarded! King Wen said a little abruptly, he already knew what happened to the nineteenth princess in the fourteenth princess's mansion at that time, but as for whether anyone jumped into the water to save her, it was not very clear, it should seem to be true, because this little fat man couldn't see anything unusual.

"Yes! That's why the little sister brought her here today, just to ask the third brother to make a move! The nineteenth princess also nodded approvingly and said.

"Someone! Take this ...... The little guy took it to Steward Qiu and asked him to handle the matter immediately! Oh, by the way, let Steward Qiu go himself! King Wen turned around and instructed his housekeeper to say, in order to show his attention, he also specially instructed.

"King Xie Wen is a thousand years old!" Zhu Xiaobao's heart was suddenly excited, and he couldn't imagine that the nineteenth princess would be able to fulfill her promise when she saw King Wen. After today, I'm a flat body, and I'm no longer anyone's minion! Zhu Xiaobao stood up and bent over, this was already a salute!

"Go ahead! Go ahead! The princess waved her hand and said with a smile, her mind was now all on these soaps, and she didn't want to be interrupted by these little things!

"Uh-huh! Princess Niangniang, you see, how delicate and elegant this soap is, especially this kind of soap that has been repeatedly processed and carved, is the best in soap! The nineteenth princess was also very pandering and said to the princess.

Really. If the two women talked about beauty and other things, they immediately found a common language, and the more they talked, the happier they became, and King Wen could only laugh with him on the side! But the good impression of the nineteenth princess is also getting more and more.

……

Zhu Xiaobao only came back in the evening, or was sent back by the family of King Wen's mansion in a carriage, the slave mark on the back of his neck was gone, and now it was a bit of a hot burning sensation, which took a day or two to recover. But Zhu Xiaobao's heart was very happy, and he couldn't imagine that he had regained his freedom, and it felt so good to be free!

But as soon as he arrived at his room, Wu Yue at the door was already standing there looking at him with a smile.

"What are you doing? To tell you, I'm in a good mood today and I don't want to fight with you. Moreover, this sister, who is standing in front of you now, is a flat body, just like you, should you think about whether to marry me? Zhu Xiaobao first took a step back vigilantly, and then said, but in the end, he became more and more proud, a little carried away!

"Really? I'm here to talk to you about that! Wu Yue snorted a little disdainfully.

"What to talk about? You're already thinking about marrying me? You're in too much of a hurry, aren't you? I'm not ready yet, but it's okay, I still have two thousand taels of gold, marrying you is enough, right? Zhu Xiaobao said very confidently.

"Marry you! Who is going to marry you! Wu Yue suddenly shouted angrily.

"Then what are you doing here, still staring at you, why do I feel a little scared?" Zhu Xiaobao shrank back, and then asked suspiciously.

"Humph! I'm here to warn you! Wu Yue stepped forward and grabbed Zhu Xiaobao's wrist, and said viciously: "Even if you get rid of your slave status, you are not allowed to leave the princess's mansion!" Otherwise, I'll kill you!" ”

"Huh? This is a forcible seizure, so what's the point of me getting out of slavery? Zhu Xiaobao raised his head and asked, wasn't he half a head shorter than Wu Yue, so he had to tilt his head and ask.

"Not seizure! Be...... Okay, okay, let's be honest with you, it's the princess who wants you not to leave! "Wu Yue was a little aggrieved, so she had to move the nineteenth princess out!

"Oh! I still have to listen to the princess, I have no intention of leaving! But, Yueyue, you're not interesting at all? Zhu Xiaobao asked very scoundrelly. The other hand was also on Wu Yue's hand, stroking back and forth, making Wu Yue very embarrassed, not letting go, not letting go.

"Alright, alright, if you can take your hand away, I'll tell you, yes, I don't want you to leave either! But I didn't think about marrying you! Wu Yue stomped her feet a little angrily and said, how can you always lose yourself in the end!

"Oh! Then this sister, can I buy two women as a partial house? Don't worry, I'll keep it for you! Look how crazy I am! Zhu Xiaobao asked as if he was very serious.

"You dare! You buy one and I'll kill one, buy two and I'll kill a pair! Wu Yue suddenly shouted angrily.

"Hee-hee! I'm going to buy the two of them, so you don't have to kill them both, do you? Zhu Xiaobao pointed to Lu Tong and Lu Fang behind Wu Yue and said.

"You! …… I'm so angry, what the hell are you trying to do? Wu Yue shouted angrily and anxiously.

"I want to treat you to dinner!" Zhu Xiaobao still said with a smile.

"Don't eat it!" Wu Yue refused without thinking about it, and immediately reacted and asked, "What, what did you say?" ”

"Lu Tong, Lu Fang, let's cook, I'll invite you to eat and drink, Wu Guard said she won't eat!" Zhu Xiaobao said to Lu Tong and Lu Fang very enthusiastically, and he didn't pay attention to Wu Yue when he shook his hand.

"Nasty! Dead little treasure, I'll eat! Wu Yue shouted a little annoyed in the back.

"Then don't hurry up, if you don't come, they won't dare to sit down! Hurry up, guys, and I'm going to have a good celebration today! ”

"Hate to die, you scoundrel!"

……

In King Wen's inner house, it is really as he said, for these twelve pieces of soap is already a lot of trouble, speaking of which, King Wen married those concubines are all talented women who are knowledgeable, but now in order to get a piece of soap, they are also making a lot of trouble, which makes King Wen also a headache! And King Wen has more than a dozen daughters......

"It's all done? I'm really going to be killed by them! King Wen asked, leaning back in his chair a little tiredly in the princess's room.

"What else can I do, I can only distribute the fifty pieces of soap promised by the nineteenth sister first, otherwise your daughters will not leave! Hey, the nineteenth sister shouldn't just talk casually, right? The princess also smiled helplessly. Although King Wen likes to recite poems with those talented women, the princess lives the most, and King Wen's eldest son and second son are born to the princess, so the princess has supreme authority in the inner house!

"Probably not! I just don't know when she'll be able to deliver it! We'll ask for it when we don't see it! King Wen said helplessly.

"Alas! It would be nice if the nineteenth sister could cooperate with us! was preempted by the seventh sister again. The profit in this is unimaginable, do you know what price a piece of soap is being fried in the imperial city now? Twenty taels of gold, the seventh sister only sold five taels of gold, I heard that it was still three taels at the beginning! It only went up later! The princess said enviously.

"Yes! The seventh sister's move is really powerful, the nineteenth sister is actually her puppet, and Xiyuan City is still in her hands! And you don't have to spend too much on your own! Even if the last nineteen sisters can't hold it, they can only go to her. Alas, the seventh sister is getting more and more powerful! Does she really want to compete for the throne? King Wen also sighed and said. Although he was relatively comfortable today, he was always worried about his future.

Once the princes fight for the throne, King Wen is the weakest, and his fief position is also the most dangerous, in the middle of the fiefs of several princes, let alone attacking others, it will be difficult to keep his fief from being violated.

"Don't care about Seventh Sister's thoughts, let's think about ourselves first, although you have run the fief very prosperously, but now the people in our fiefdom are greedy for comfort, and they have lost their bloodiness at the beginning. Some people have even given up practicing martial arts! Now the annual conscription is also delayed, and they are not willing to go out! If this fights, what will we use to compete with the eldest brother and the second emperor brother! The princess looked at King Wen with some resentment and said.

"Yes! These years have been too comfortable and not prepared in advance. It's really not good, I can only join forces, and now it seems that the seventh sister is the most worthy of our team! King Wen was a little annoyed, but he didn't want to compete for the throne, so he wanted to live this rich and leisurely life. But I didn't expect that what I thought was far away was already imminent!

In fact, King Wen is also whimsical, his fief is not connected to the fief of the Seventh Princess, but he is close to the second prince King Ming, but King Wen can't believe King Ming's personality. Ming King Xia Zeming is too insidious, very greedy, and very lustful. A few years ago, when King Wen paid his birthday to King Wen, King Xia Zeming of Ming was very rude to the princess and made teasing words, so King Wen and King Ming never had any contact. And the two have always been fighting openly and secretly, but King Wen is really weak, and he has suffered a lot of losses over the years.

At this time, the housekeeper came back to report: "Back to Your Highness, Steward Qiu has eliminated the slave mark for Zhu Xiaobao, but he said that he found something on which of Zhu Xiaobao's juniors......"

"Oh? What was found? King Wen frowned and asked, he had almost forgotten about this matter, but he didn't expect that there would be twists and turns in it.

"Which little treasure has a tiger head pattern on his back!" The butler said a little late.

"Huh? So what? Any questions? King Wen was a little dissatisfied with the butler's hesitation.

"It is rumored that the royal family of the Zirui Kingdom in the East China Sea will tattoo a tiger head after birth! But this is just a rumor, no one has seen it! Therefore, the subordinates are not sure if this little treasure is a descendant of the royal family of Zirui Kingdom! The butler said a little uncertainly.

"Zirui Country? Isn't that the Zirui country that Seventh Sister attacked after pacifying the southeast thirty-six? King Wen immediately thought of some of the achievements of the Seventh Princess.

"Exactly! But that time, the seventh princess didn't fight for long, and then withdrew her troops, but after that battle, Zirui Kingdom ascended the throne as the new king, and the new king was still a woman, called Yu Qianrou "The housekeeper immediately made a detailed report on the situation he found out to King Wen.

"Well, don't make a noise about this matter, send some people to check the situation of the royal family personnel in Zirui Country in the past few years, especially after the war with the seventh sister!" King Wen thought for a moment, and then instructed the butler.

"Yes, my subordinates will do it!"
