Chapter 31: Eavesdropping on the Corner
"Don't worry, you will definitely assist the three of you to secretly find His Royal Highness Hu Ji, and please don't worry about the three of you, why don't you stay in the house for a few days?"
"This doesn't have to be, the three of us are used to being casual, and we still live in the inn more comfortably, but I heard that the situation has been bad recently, and there seem to be signs of a big war, I don't know why?"
"Hey, I'm ashamed, although my Lace City is small, it has stood on the border of this world for hundreds of years without falling, which is inseparable from our strong and neutral attitude for a hundred years, and the reason for our strength is nothing more than the Huajia Purple Iron Mine."
"I have long heard that there are good soldiers in Huacheng, it turns out that it is because of the iron mine, why does the Lord of Huacheng tell us such an important secret?" Gao Minglang's eyes were sharp, and he didn't know what the intentions of the person in front of him were.
"Hehe, this is no secret for a long time, no matter how rich the mineral source is, there will be a day when it will be exhausted, since my father's generation, the purple iron has been slowly depleted, and there is not much left in my hands."
"...... all these years"
"That's right, in the past ten years since I succeeded to the outside world, in addition to relying on bluffs to the outside world, Lace City has secretly collected purple iron, so that peace can be maintained."
"But this is not a long-term solution, as far as I know, purple iron is tough and rare in the world, not only sharpening iron like clay, but also resisting the power of demons."
"Hehe, it's still Brother Minglang who learns a lot. Just a few years ago, Donghua Kingdom, which is adjacent to Lace City, handed an olive branch, wanting to marry Changping Princess Changqu of Dongyao and form an alliance with Lace City. When Donghua saw Dongyao's move, he also repaired a copy of the book to my mother, saying that they would also send a princess. ”
"Isn't that a good thing! And it's a good thing in pairs! ”
"Good thing!? Brother Ling Xiao is sure that he is not laughing at him, hehe, my leg is ...... So I didn't plan to marry, besides, whether it was Donghua or Dongyao, they were all here for Zitie, and the two princesses were just victims of their forcible stuffing. ”
Gao Lingxiao glanced at his legs when he was in the rain, and on the way here, they all heard that the lace city lord was handsome and extraordinary, and he was extremely resourceful, but he couldn't get married for a long time because of his broken legs.
“…… Forgive me, city lord! I didn't mean that! I forgot about you for a while, Brother Hua, ......"
Hua Yushi smiled bitterly: "It's okay! The lord of this city has been like this for many years, and he has long been used to it, so don't take it to heart! ”
"Yes, city lord, Ling Xiao and I didn't mean this, but the marriage is a matter of diplomatic relations, and I heard that the old lady is handling it again, so it's really hard to refuse, but why are the two countries fighting again?"
"Brother Xian doesn't know, originally the eldest princess of Donghua's family sending team has set off for Lace City, but who wants to have an accident halfway, the princess was kidnapped, Donghua insisted that it was Dongyao who did it, so there was something later."
Gao Lingxiao sneered: "The princess of a dignified country was kidnapped by thieves...... That's a lot of information! ”
Yun Kongkong didn't understand, and asked again: "What kind of information?" The scene was a little awkward.
"I heard that more than ten years ago, the former city lord of Lace City, Hua Jieyi, was not dead, but missing, when it rained, you took over Lace City at the age of seven, and survived in the cracks of the Eastern Thirty Kingdoms, and it was still not easy to make Lace City prosperous, which shows that Brother Hua is resourceful, and this current predicament will not stump Brother Hua."
"Minglang virtuous brother praises, now Lace City has become a military stronghold between the two countries, Lace City wants to survive, there are only two ways at the moment, take refuge in Dongyao, or take refuge in Donghua, but no matter which side you take refuge, you will inevitably be harassed by war. The only thing I fear is the displacement of the people of Lace City. ”
Of course, there is a third way, the Hu dynasty......
But when it rains, it is clear that the small lace city can't enter the eyes of Emperor Hu, who has a hundred vassal states in the world. Fortunately, God opened his eyes and let him see a glimmer of hope at this critical juncture.
Hua Yushi's thoughts, naturally couldn't hide Gao Minglang, he regretted coming to Hua Yushi for help, but at this moment, the words have been spoken, and it is too late to take it back, so he can only try to appease.
"What does Brother Hua command, although it is said, as long as you can find Hu Ji and ensure the safety of His Royal Highness, I believe that Emperor Hu will not let Donghua and Dongyao mess around."
With Gao Minglang's words, a hanging heart was slightly lowered when it rained.
"Brother Minglang is polite, His Royal Highness Hu Ji has been eccentric since she was a child, she is determined to avoid the three, it may not be easy for you to find her, Hua Mou will order to go down, the whole city, oh, no, the city inside and outside the city will send people, even if the lace city is turned over, the city lord will help you find His Royal Highness."
"Then I will borrow the auspicious words of the virtuous brother, and hope that we will see His Highness as soon as possible."
……
Hu Ji came to the yamen and saw Fu Wenjun first, and Fu Wenjun was not surprised to see her, but shouted: "It's not too late to come." ”
Fu Wenjun led the orchid to the prison cell, where Fu Renjie was on duty.
"Fu Lang, just pity me, if you don't accept Feng Ying, Feng Ying has only a dead end."
Before she saw Fu Renjie, Hu Ji heard a miserable and resentful female voice, who is Liu Fengying? !
"Feng Ying, you know, I promised Hu Ji to marry only one person in this life, why do you force me like this?"
"But that woman is five big and three coarse, so vulgar, how can she be worthy of you, are you willing, if you are really willing, why did you leave home that day to see me, I heard that I am willing to be your concubine, why did you take me back to Huajia Village, the person in your heart is obviously me."
"I ......"
"Fu Lang, I am willing to commit myself to you, and I only have you in my heart!"
Liu Fengying's tone suddenly became low and tactful, her soft waist was also attached to Fu Renjie's body, and the handkerchief in her hand was raised, brushing directly over Fu Renjie's cheeks.
Fu Renjie only felt that the tip of his nose was fragrant, and then he was a little dizzy, and he unconsciously reached out to stop Liu Fengying's waist.
The conversation between the two was listened to word by word by Hu Ji and Fu Wenjun, Hu Ji was already on the verge of anger, Fu Wenjun saw that the situation was not right, and wanted to scold his younger brother, but who wanted to be directly pointed by Hu Ji.
"Wait a little longer...... "Wait a little longer?" What are you waiting for!
Fu Wenjun was really afraid that his younger brother would say something out of the ordinary or do something out of the ordinary, so he hurriedly brought Hu Ji in, which could be regarded as moving a stone and hitting his own feet.
"Brother Renjie, I beg you, as long as you want me, even if you don't have a name, I am willing, otherwise, tomorrow my aunt will sell me to that village tyrant Huang, he is in his sixties, and there are seven or eight concubines in the family, and he married me just to be happy! I had no choice but to die. ”
"What? Is there such a thing? You...... Why didn't you tell me earlier. ”
Fu Renjie's remaining reason pushed Liu Fengying away, but Liu Fengying was like glue, and she couldn't push it away.
"Woo ......"
"Hey, don't cry, the person who cries has a headache! If you really don't want to get married, I'll find a way to help you, but I still need to go home and discuss this matter with Orchid, she's actually a good girl, see if I can ......"
