Ten days later, the capital of Lingguo, Lingzhou.

At the city gate, pedestrians come and go, people enter the city in an endless stream, some people rush to gather, some people carry goods, and on the side of the city gate, there are one or two wanted notices.

There are soldiers at the city gates, who are checking one by one.

When it was Xiao Yuan's turn and the others, several people also handed out the identity cards that had been prepared for a long time.

The soldier looked down at them one by one, and after confirming that they were correct, he glanced at Xiao Yuan and the others, and at the same time took out a portrait and kept comparing them.

finally put it away, and his eyes fell on Xu Hu's shoulder: "What is in the baggage?" ”

"Some coils, and household items." Xiao Yuan said with a smile.

"I didn't ask you!" As a result, the soldier directly reprimanded.

He was a little soldier, and when he said such words to Xiao Yuan, Xu Hu was furious and was about to have a seizure, but Xiao Yuan hurriedly held him down vaguely.

At this time, the soldiers looked around Xu Hu again.

The latter has a straight waist.

"Open it and take a look!" As he spoke, the soldier reached out to snatch the burden from his shoulders.

"You're bold!" How could Xu Hu endure it, but Xiao Yuan held him down again, and at the same time took off the burden on his shoulders and handed it to the soldiers, still smiling and saying:

"My subordinate, who has been a soldier, has a rude temperament, don't blame the little brother, please check."

"Humph! Little Diao Min, who is bold! The soldier first snorted coldly and glared at Xu Hu fiercely, then took the burden and checked it carefully.

Inside the baggage, there were some broken silver, clothes and other personal belongings, and after the soldier checked it, he handed it back to Xiao Yuan, and at the same time looked it up and down, and said:

"Seeing your appearance, it looks like a rich boy who came out to play, let's go."

"Thank you." Xiao Yuan was still tepid, and the group entered the city.

Lingzhou is so big, it is needless to say, compared to Qinzhou, it is much more prosperous.

After entering the city, Xiao Yuan was strolling and walking, looking at it casually, while Xu Hu looked sullen.

"Big" He was about to say something, but he realized that something was wrong, and immediately changed his words: "Childe, the soldiers at the city gate just now were really arrogant!" Dare to be so rude to Childe, you should really teach a lesson! ”

Xiao Yuan said with a smile: "Seeing the wanted notice at the city gate, because there is a big case in Lingzhou, so strict investigation, the soldiers are not wrong, why bother, cause some unnecessary trouble, that will only delay our own time." ”

At this time, Liang Yuan said with some concern: "Childe, we will accompany these people, if"

Before he finished speaking, Xiao Yuan raised his hand: "Don't worry, since I dare to come, I am sure enough." ”

Yes, the Spirit King is not a fool, he can't and doesn't dare to do anything to Xiao Yuan, on the contrary, he will be very worried about what happened to King Qin in the Spirit Kingdom.

In Lingzhou City, on the wide streets, you can see people from time to time, humble and polite, it can be seen that this place is prosperous, and the women are also delicate and fair-skinned.

Nanshui raises more gentle and beautiful people, and the spiritual country is like that.

After walking a few more streets, Xiao Yuan asked casually: "How many days are there until the birthday banquet?" ”

"Back to Gongzi, the day after tomorrow." Liang Yuan hurriedly returned.

"Yes." Xiao Yuan nodded, "Let's go to Splendid Mountain Villa first." ”

Splendid Villa, Gu Xue's father, Gu Tong, is the chief manager, mainly responsible for the export of Shu brocade in Qin.

The place where he mainly operates is also Lingguo, and it can be seen from the clothes of many rich and noble people in the market that the sales of Shu brocade should be very good.

Gu Tong's business is very large, and Splendid Villa, which is also equivalent to the current state-owned enterprises, is all over the place.

Shu brocade is the best in the world, and the price is the same as other brocades, so it will naturally be favored by people, but in this way, it will be jealous of the same industry.

When Xiao Yuan arrived at the main store, it was already surrounded by a large number of soldiers, and the surrounding people were pointing and pointing, and his shopkeeper was also in a hurry, still negotiating something with an officer.

After inquiry, Xiao Yuan learned that it was his peers who made trouble, led the servants, and fought with the servants brought by Gu Tong, and then they were all invited to the official mansion.

He had no choice but to rush to the government office again to check the situation.

At this time, it was not uneventful here, Gu Tong and a man who also looked like a businessman were standing in the hall, and outside, there was a crowd of onlookers.

Above, an official slapped the table and said sharply: "Dare to disrupt the people!" When you see this official, don't kneel down yet! ”

The merchant hurriedly knelt on the ground.

Gu Tong sneered, raised his head slightly, pouted and said, "Kneel you?" Just because you're a little government official? Don't say it's you, even if the Spirit King is here, it won't work! ”

"Okay, you daring man!"

The official's nose was almost crooked, he was furious, and immediately commanded left and right: "Beat this person to his knees with a stick!" ”

"No!" The guards responded in unison, and just as they were about to step forward, Gu Tong was already glaring and shouted:

"Who dare!?"

"The old man is the father of Princess Qin! Give me a try! ”

What the!? Hearing this, the left and right guards couldn't help but glance at each other, and they all stopped, not knowing what to do.

The officials were visibly stunned.

"You, what did you say?" He didn't come back to his senses for a while.

"Do you need the old man to repeat it?"

As Gu Tong spoke, he also looked at the official, and said coldly: "Today, if you dare to touch the old man, the old man promises that this matter will soon become a diplomatic incident between Qin and Ling, and you can afford it as a small official!" ”

"This, this." Officials were stunned.

Gu Tong is right, if this is the case, if this is the case, how can the king of Qin give up after beating the father of the princess of Qin, he will definitely find trouble, in terms of the diplomacy of the two countries, when the king of Qin puts pressure on the king of his own country, then he, a small official, will have to come out and bear the black pot!

Thinking of this, the official broke out in a cold sweat.

In the past, I only knew that Splendid Villa was a merchant of Qin, but I didn't expect that the chief steward behind the scenes was actually the father of Princess Qin!

This old man Gu will really take advantage of the situation to borrow the name of his daughter Princess Qin, or rather, the name of his son-in-law.

But King Qin, you can't afford to provoke it!

The official swallowed hard, and his face was a little ugly, because he originally wanted to favor the local businessman.

"What proof do you have by saying this?" He stammered again.

"The old man's surname is Gu Mingtong, do you think that Princess Qin's father is someone who dares to pretend to be anyone?" Gu Tong said lukewarmly.

"This" official has nothing to say, yes, this is a businessman of the Qin State, if it is not true, how dare he say that he is the princess's father, that is to exterminate the nine clans!

He was already completely convinced.

At this time, the merchant who was kneeling on the ground also knew that he had provoked a person he couldn't provoke, so he hurriedly said: "My lord, the villain is willing to settle this matter in private." ”

"Huh?" The official was stunned for a moment, and then he couldn't ask for it, and he said again and again: "Okay, you businessmen should mediate with each other, and you can discuss anything."

As he spoke, he looked at Gu Tong again and said tentatively: "Then, then Master Gu, this case is nothing to do with the official."
