Zhaoguo, Wangdu, Lulongcheng, southern suburbs.

Sun Qing was routine, standing on the bank of the Bashui River, looking at the neat and well-placed city in front of him. For some reason, there is always an inexplicable emotion in my heart.

"Strange." Sun Qingxin said, "The specifications and safety of the house have been checked many times, and there are no problems. The castle walls, which can only be closed from the outside, and the boilers in each shop are also prepared. The land outside the foundation is sealed off to ensure that these people cannot dig tunnels and sneak away. ”

The piles and piles are all in place.

This small town on the outskirts of the city is a prison cage for the nobles of the Six Kingdoms, and it is heavily guarded, and it is not so easy to enter or exit whether you want to enter or exit.

But why, these days, are you always restless?

His brows were tightly knit, and all the people around him were afraid to breathe.

At this moment, a carriage drove into the town.

"Xun Shen?" Sun Qing sensed who was sitting in the car, and was even more puzzled, "He was just released by the king for a few days?" As soon as he heard that the Patriots had settled down, he ran to meet the Guard? ”

Don't want to die?

But this time, Sun Qing guessed wrong.

Before entering the city, Xun Shen asked the servants to ride a fast horse first and go to Wei Xiangwei Ping's house to inform him. He tidied up his clothes in the car and took a deep breath.

Wei Ping was also surprised when he heard the news of Xun Shen's request to see him.

Although he and Xun Shen can't talk about friendship, the relationship is not much worse, King Wei's treachery, resulting in Xun Shen being imprisoned by King Zhao, Wei Ping was worried for a while, but there is nothing to do.

As for Xun Shen being released......

Given that they had only been in Zhaoguo for three days, let alone understanding the situation, they didn't even find out the surrounding southeast, northwest, and northwest. Naturally, there is no way to inquire about such fresh news.

Although there are differences in their hearts, the two of them are both princes and princes of the country, and the etiquette cannot be abolished.

When Wei Ping received the news, he naturally changed into formal and neat clothes, came to the atrium, and saw Xun Shen being led in by the attendants, and immediately made a move.

Xun Shen still took a look, and the two walked into the main room side by side, looked at each other, and wanted to sigh in their hearts.

In Wei Ping's impression, Xun Shen is a typical prince of the Wei Dynasty, with a light fur and a slow belt, handsome appearance, and graceful demeanor, and is admired by women.

I haven't seen it for two years, but I found that the square pins stand upright, the wide deep clothes are put on the body, it looks like it is going to float away with the wind, and a few strands of white hair grow on the sideburns.

In Xun Shen's memory, although Wei Ping was gentle and elegant, there was always a trace of sadness between his eyebrows. It is a pain that puts a weak country on its shoulders, but it is powerless.

But now, probably because the dust has settled, or the jar is broken, although Wei Ping is facing a lot older, and his back is a little rickety, his mood is not so depressed.

Or maybe he already had a will to die.

However, in just two years, there have been such big changes, Wei Ping and Xun Shen are embarrassed. But soon, Xun Shen's eyes fell on a few furnishings in the main house.

Although it was only for a short moment, Wei Ping also noticed it, and couldn't help but smile bitterly and shook his head: "See it, Zhaoguo...... We didn't have our whole family's belongings stolen. ”

It's a bit hard to say that.

But Wei Ping is an upright person and will not add fuel to the vinegar and speak ill of people.

Therefore, he frankly told Xun Shen that Zhaoguo only took their fields, mansions, and books at home, and the first two could not be moved, and the latter was directly transported to the Shiqu Pavilion in the palace.

As for gold, silver, jewelry, antique jade, and silk and satin, they were all packed in boxes, and they were brought over as soon as they came, and the things arrived earlier than people.

When Xun Shen heard this, he couldn't help but be shocked: "Didn't you take a penny?" ”

"If you talk about quantity, not all of them can be matched." Wei Ping knows very well, with a lot of money in front, how can it be possible if no one reaches out?

For example, I don't know who has fallen into the hands of everyday utensils such as gold bowls and chopsticks. Most of the things that you are used to on weekdays are gone.

Some are because the value is high, some are because they are too cheap, and Zhaoguo doesn't ship everything to you.

How can a person who has lost his country deserve such good treatment?

But at first glance, most of the precious antiques, treasures, jade, court clothes and the like are there. Some of the gold bars and copper coins were also returned.

For a family, the most important thing is that these antiques and books can be preserved, which is already good. Not to mention, they still have money in their hands.

"When Brother Xun came, did you see the market outside the city?" Wei Ping was very emotional, "It was the businessmen who came to build it after they got the approval of the government, and they were specially selling things to us." ”

"Housewarming" a new home, all kinds of waste to be rebuilt, always buy something for daily use, right?

The businessmen had already inquired clearly, and all the skilled craftsmen who defended the country had entered Shanglin Yuan. In addition to the nobles, the housewarmers who moved over this time were their doormen and confidants.

Even if it is a servant, who lives under the big tree of the minister's house, not to mention pampering and pampering on weekdays, there are few who have to work in person, and let them boil water and chop wood to cook and laundry, which simply kills them.

So these merchants had already calculated that they would not sell anything but hot water, because there was a boiler that was boiling hot water all the time for everyone.

Daily utensils, three meals a day, clothes and shoes, pots and pans, charcoal and firewood......

Wei Ping didn't think there was anything wrong at first, the Wei family had a big business, and there were many things back. The things sold by the merchant were worth a few dollars, and he thought the things were crude!

It is food, although the stone mill has also spread to the six countries, but Zhaoguo is the base camp, the popularity is the highest, no matter the pattern or taste, it is much better than Weiguo.

But when the family bought all the things, Wei Ping looked at the expenses of the past three days, and immediately felt frightened.

Half of the cash money was spent!

When I interrogated the henchmen again, I didn't buy anything very expensive, it was all at a normal level.

To be honest, it is far less than the Wei family's previous use.

The henchmen still feel aggrieved, they failed to help Wei Ping maintain the pomp of the minister, so shabby, it's really embarrassing. You can only put a few expensive furnishings in the place where you come to support the scene.

In the past, the Wei family disdained such nouveau riche behavior at all.

Wei Ping suddenly felt bad.

In Weiguo, the reason why they can be so extravagant is because they have land, official positions, businessmen to worship, and there are many projects that come with money, so much so that Wei Ping doesn't have to be greedy at all, and his life can be extremely rich.

But when they arrived in Zhaoguo, what could they have? It's nothing more than the words "sit and eat the sky".

All kinds of trivial matters were entangled in Wei Ping's heart, so worried that he didn't even have time to think about what King Zhao would do to King Wei. Just thinking about how these patriotic nobles should live, he already has a few more gray hairs.

But these details, if you say it again, it will be a shame.

The reason why Wei Ping said so much was also because he noticed that Xun Shen's trip seemed to have brought a mission, but it was difficult to talk about it, so he threw bricks and stones to lead the way and slightly reported the shortcomings of the family, so as to make Xun Shen relax.

Seeing that the time was almost up, he pretended to ask casually: "I don't know what happened when Brother Xun came to the door?" ”

"I'm ashamed." Xun Shen smiled bitterly, "Xun is entrusted by others, and I hope to see the third prince of your mansion." ”

Wei Ping's face changed in an instant.
