Chapter 411: Finding Allies
Xie Yutang couldn't help but be a little stunned, but he quickly reacted, coughed a little embarrassed, looked away, and shook his head, "The new emperor ascended the throne, Lando has actually been marginalized, and it is unlikely that the monarch of Shanglin Country will listen to him." ”
"Then why did you write it......
Xie Yutang smiled bitterly, "Because I also think that buying with money is the easiest way." ”
The others, though they are all favored now, are shrewd to death, and they have to be bloodied to let them help, but they don't have that condition at all.
Chi Wan also felt a little distressed, and said in a deep voice, "In this way, aren't we here as businessmen, so it's better to visit them one by one, so we can take the opportunity to observe their reactions." ”
Hearing this, Xie Yutang bowed slightly, "I also have this intention." ”
The two discussed for a long time, and did not go to bed until late at night.
The next day, the two of them finished their breakfast and began to go outside to understand the situation, but for the sake of caution, they did not knock directly on the doors of the big officials.
Just kidding, if you just knock on the door and enter, you might be arrested as an assassin.
Now they have no money or power, so they fled here alone, and they don't know where to go to redress their grievances when they die. But it didn't work like this, and in the morning, except for hearing some gossip, the two of them didn't get anything done.
"Well, if only I could know the princess." Sitting in the restaurant, Chi Wan sighed.
Xie Yutang didn't speak, but there was some frustration on the expression on his face.
Chi Wan said, suddenly felt that her proposal was very good, and her eyes became brighter and brighter, Fei pulled Xie Yutang's sleeve and said, "I mean seriously, Yutang, you see, we have been here for the past few days, and what we have heard the most is about the princess, and it can be seen that the monarch listens to her very much, if the princess can help us say a few words, it will definitely get twice the result with half the effort." ”
Xie Yutang took a sip of Lin Guo's wine, only to feel that the taste was very bland, so he put it aside without any interest.
"It's not much easier to know a princess than a monarch." Xie Yutang pointed out bloodily for a while.
"Then what should I do, everyone is here, we can't do nothing." Chi Wan's tone was low, besides, she didn't want to see King Chu so arrogant again.
Xie Yutang gave her a chopstick dish, but he looked unhurried, and said with relief, "It's okay, you can rest assured, there will be a road before the car reaches the mountain." ”
Chi Wan glanced at him, and he knew what he said, but if they didn't work hard, how could this road come out and emerge on their own?
The two of them ate for a while, and suddenly there was an earth-shattering cheer below.
They were taken aback and hurriedly asked, "What's wrong, what's going on?" ”
The shopkeeper smiled and said with relief, "Don't worry, guests, today, it's the day when the princess comes out to parade the streets, there are more people who come to see the excitement, and it is inevitable that it will be a little noisy, but there are not many opportunities to see the princess up close, so you might as well come out and take a look." ”
As she said this, the princess's float had slowly passed, and Chi Wan stuck her head out of the window to see that the whole street was full of people. The Imperial Foresters were slowly approaching a float as tall as a two-story building.
There was a person sitting faintly in the middle of the float, but the distance was too far for Chi Wan to see clearly, and she only saw that many people on both sides were throwing silver coins down, causing people on both sides to cheer and grab it.
Chi Wan turned his head to Xie Yutang and said, "This is too dangerous, so many people go to grab silver coins, it is easy to cause stampede chaos." ”
Xie Yutang also glanced at it twice, his eyebrows furrowed slightly, obviously thinking about this problem.
When he was talking, there happened to be a child who was pushed to the ground by a group of adults, because there were too many people around, he couldn't get up, people didn't care about the child at all in order to grab money, and seeing that the child was about to be overwhelmed by the crowd, Chi Wan was so frightened that she grabbed Xie Yutang's hand.
"What to do, that kid is still so young, he will be trampled to death by them." Ji Wan was so anxious that she couldn't watch a human life disappear in front of her eyes.
And now, people are in extreme excitement, and they can't hear any sound from the outside world at all, and Ji Wan's face is so anxious that her face is white.
Xie Yutang also looked solemn, he patted Chi Wan's hand, and said solemnly, "Don't be afraid, I will save him." ”
As soon as Chi Wan wanted to say, there are so many people, how can you save people, but she saw Xie Yutang suddenly jump out of the window and fall lightly in the direction of the child, Chi Wan was stunned for a moment, then reacted, and shouted to the people below, "Let me go, let go quickly." ”
People unexpectedly noticed that something fell above their heads, and they were so frightened that they avoided it, Xie Yutang took the opportunity to fall to the ground and picked up the child who was lying on the ground with a painful face.
Only then did everyone realize that this man had come to save people, and they didn't know when they trampled a child under their feet.
After figuring out the situation, people also gathered around worriedly, "What's wrong, this kid?" ”
"Oh my God, if this guy hadn't come down, I wouldn't have known there was a kid in there."
"Me too, this child is also fateful, and there are nobles to save him, otherwise he would almost die."
The crowd was talking, Xie Yutang didn't care, he first checked the child's condition, and found that he was only stepped on a few times, and there was no major problem on his body, and then he was relieved.
"Whose child is this, take a good look, there are so many people, don't let the child come out."
After saying this several times, a woman ran out crying and claimed it, and when she saw the child's eyes closed, she cried even louder.
The person next to him persuaded, "This kind-hearted person just checked and said that your child is fine, so take someone to the hospital to take a look, I guess I was scared." ”
The woman froze for a moment, and originally wanted to rely on Xie Yutang, but so many people watched, so she had to reluctantly thank Xie Yutang, and then left in a hurry with the child in her arms.
It was just a small episode, and the streets were soon bustling again.
However, the people on the float set off turbulent waves in their hearts.
Is that...... Xie Yutang? The person by the window turned out to be Ji Wan?! How did the two of them get here?
Chi Xia was shocked by the six gods and no masters, and stood up all of a sudden, and her move also made the people on the street even more crazy.
"The princess has stood up, the princess has stood up, and the princess will personally send us silver coins!"
The shouting was endless, and Chi Xia felt very irritable, his eyebrows furrowed deeply, and he couldn't wait to throw everyone into the moat, it was too noisy.
"Princess, what's wrong?" The grandmother who was guarding outside noticed it for the first time and immediately asked.
Chi Xia's face was a little ugly, and he restrained himself from looking in Chi Wan's direction, and pretended to be calm, "It's okay, did something happen down there just now?" ”
Mama hurriedly reported, "A little child fell, but someone rescued him, so the princess doesn't need to worry." ”
Chi Xia pinched the corners of his clothes tightly, and nodded calmly, "Who saved people, he did a good job, go and check, this princess will be rewarded." ”
Seeing Mama's surprised face, Chi Xia explained, "Today is a special day, if something happens, I'm afraid it will displease my father, so, that ...... The knight helped me. ”
With such an explanation, Mama also understood, and secretly said in her heart that this folk princess still knows how to advance and retreat, and she did not rely on the emperor's love to fly high.
"The old slave is asking people to check now, but there are a lot of people, and it may take some time."
Chi Xia said softly, "It's okay, Mama just needs to find someone." ”
The grandmother nodded in response, and was about to go to instruct someone, but Chi Xia suddenly stopped her again.
"Mama, this matter is coming quietly, don't let that chivalrous man know." Chi Xia commanded softly.
After thinking about it, Mama understood, "Rest assured, princess, the old slave will do as you say." ”
After the others left, Chi Xia's expression changed instantly. An originally soft face has become extremely distorted, these two people are really ghostly, and they follow wherever they go!
"Princess Chitose Chitose Chitose!"
Chi Xia looked at the fanatical faces of the people below, and raised her chin slightly, this is her life, no one wants to destroy it!
Because of such a thing, Chi Xia has been a little uneasy in the future. She tried to find Ji Wan, but there were too many people, and soon the two of them were drowned in the sea of people.
Suppressing the uneasiness in her heart to finish the whole parade, Chi Xia hurriedly returned to the palace and went to the emperor, she obediently asked for peace, picked some fun things and said something, making the emperor laugh, seeing that the time was almost up, she got up and retired, not caring about the ugly face of the concubine who accompanied the emperor.
When she first entered the palace, the concubines were quite friendly to her, and everyone wanted to show their magnanimous side and win her over, but Chi Xia was unmoved.
Later, everyone came back to the senses and found that she was very pleasing to the emperor, and a sense of crisis gradually rose in their hearts, and now there are few concubines who are sincere to her.
Chi Xia has a clear heart, but she doesn't care at all, isn't it just a few insignificant concubines? As long as she envelops the emperor, she still needs to be afraid of them? I'm afraid they'll come and beg her.
Returning to his palace without squinting, Chi Xia immediately closed the door and summoned someone to ask.
"Who the hell is that man?"
The subordinate in charge of investigating the identities of Xie Yutang and Chi Xia replied, "Princess Hui, those two are businessmen from neighboring countries who came to do business. ”
When Chi Xia heard that it was a neighboring country, he chuckled mentally.
Sure enough, they are really Chi Wan and Xie Yutang!
After confirming this, the fear in Chi Xia's heart almost overflowed, and his face was ugly and terrifying.
Mama held her and hurriedly asked, "Princess, what's wrong?" ”
Chi Xia waved his hand, lowered his eyes and pondered for a moment, and finally beckoned his subordinates as if he had made up his mind, "Come here, this princess has something for you to do." ”
