At this moment, a majestic voice suddenly came through the door, and then a man in military uniform pushed the door open and broke in.

And this person turned out to be Lu Renxi, Emperor Chu's personal guard.

"Lord Zhao Yan!" Lu Renxi bowed.

Seeing Lu Renxi, I was a little surprised: "Why are you here, could it be that Emperor Chu is also here?" ”

Lu Renxi shook his head: "No, Renxi just happened to have something here, and then received a message from His Majesty flying pigeons, so what happened to your subordinates here, Renxi already knows, and where he came, Renxi has already investigated first, and the fault is not your subordinates, so Renxi will handle this matter well." ”

I smiled slightly: "Now that you know the ins and outs of the matter, then I will leave this matter to you." ”

"Yes!"

"Dong Ting, Wanyun, let's go!"

I shouted, and then left with Dong Ting and Wanyun.

After that, I don't know how Lu Renxi interrogated General Deng, but the next day, the General Deng and Qian Jinbao were both imprisoned, waiting for the fate of Emperor Chu.

"County Lord, I'm sorry we caused you trouble!"

Huatou said guiltily.

"Say what? Since you are all my workers, how can I watch you being bullied, besides, you are not wrong in this matter, why should you apologize? ”

"County Lord!"

Huatou, they were so moved that they didn't know what to say.

It seems that they really follow a good master, after all, they have seen too many people's faces, and there is only Zhao Yan who treats poor households like Zhao Yan as human beings!

Seeing that they were all silent, I said again: "I am a very simple person, people respect me, I respect people, the same, as long as you don't cause trouble, the fault is not you, I just do my best, and I will definitely protect you, this is my standard of life, so you must not go back to the previous road, otherwise don't blame me for turning my face and showing no mercy." ”

"County Lord, don't worry, we are already very satisfied with this kind of life now, and we will definitely not do those things that stole chickens and dogs in the past."

"That's good, but this incident reminds me that although the world has signed an alliance, it doesn't seem to have changed much except that there is no war."

Huatou's affairs, in fact, part of them are probably because they are outsiders, it is precisely because they say that they are from Zhao Guo, Qian Jinbao will be even more unscrupulous, and this also reminds me that in order to really run in the four countries, you have to start from the roots, as long as they are contacted, they can really change.

"How could it not have changed? It's much easier for us to get into town now. Wanyun was a little skeptical of my words.

I shook my head: "That's just for us, we have a relationship with Emperor Chu, so it's easy to come in, as long as we take out the special waist given to us by Emperor Chu and say that we are names, I believe no one dares to stop us, but what about us?" Can't anyone else come in? This is a bit complacent and does not do any good for future development. ”

"What do you mean, county lord?"

I sighed slightly and said, "I still have to change, between the four countries, if you want to really become friendly, it is necessary to open the city." ”

"Open city? How is this possible? ”

As soon as these words came out, not only Wanyun and Dong Ting were surprised, but even Lu Renxi, who came to report the progress of the matter to me, also widened his eyes.

"Lord Zhao Yan, why do you have such thoughts? That's a no-no, you think! If the city is really opened, what if any country has evil intentions? So what to do? ”

"If any emperor has a bad intention, isn't that exactly what the other three or four mean? The four countries form an alliance, as long as one of them is tempted, the other three countries will work together to punish them, and of course the world will be divided equally, then the remaining three countries will become even stronger, so do you think anyone dares to act rashly? ”

Hearing this, everyone was shocked, what a black-bellied treaty!

Now that I think about it, the treaty signed with Zhao Yan is really terrible, if you are not careful, if you move some delusions, you will be doomed, it is really a great containment treaty.

I smiled slightly again and said: "Open the city, friendly treaties of all countries, common prosperity, this is the way to get rich together, and I believe that as soon as the city gate is opened, whether it is your Chu State, or Qin State, Yan State, and Zhao State, between the four countries, you are all eager for others to do it, because as long as you do it, the other three countries can justifiably embezzle the countries that violate the alliance, don't you say?" ”

Lu Renxi nodded, and then shook his head again: "No one dares to move, if you move, you will die." ”

"So, do you think there are any problems with opening up the castles of Shikoku?"

Everyone quickly shook their heads.

Isn't there just no problem, it's just too no problem, the Overlord Treaty, everyone is really convinced.

Later, I explained the situation to Shikoku, and sure enough, the four emperors were all smart people, so no one objected, it should be said that they really wished that a thorn would pop up in their hearts, so they would work together to clean it up.

Huatou and their little incident passed, and they went around the city, and everyone bought their own things, and they went back.

Back in the small kingdom, it's time to rest, it's time to play, and everyone has started to work in earnest.

According to the design drawing, I asked them to start from the very center and go all the way to the peripheral mines, and this huge project took three years, and in these three years, in addition to running around the world, I went back to the small kingdom to check the progress and see if there were any changes.

During these three years, commerce between countries has gradually developed.

And I have always adhered to the use of poor people, sure enough, let their lives keep up, but also completely drive the whole country, the four countries, in the past three years, although it can not be said that they have become rich, but also have let poor households out of poverty.

Some clever and foundational ones can also be independent.

Standing in the tall building of the small kingdom and looking at the busy crowd, I suddenly sighed: "It's been three years, and looking at this established city, it seems like a few days ago. ”

Over the years, I have been busy every day, running between countries every day, and although it is hard, I am still moved to watch the economies of various countries prosper and watch my kingdom be established bit by bit.

"County Lord, you're so busy that you've forgotten your days." Wanyun said with a smile.

Wanyun: "No, county lord, if you want me to say, you should have a good rest now, you look at you, you seem to have lost some weight recently." ”

I smiled and said, "But I'm still a lot fatter than before." ”

"That's right, now you, who can see you as the little thin and short Zhao Yan before, you have grown a lot taller in the past three years, and you are taller than me."

"I'm eighteen years old this year, and if I don't grow taller, I should be worried." I smiled helplessly.

Now I, after the past three years of conditioning, my body has really grown a lot taller, although it is not too tall, but I really don't dislike the height of about 1.63 meters, after all, compared to the dwarf winter melon before, it is really much better now.

And over the years, I have finally grown some flesh on my body, and although it seems that I am still a relatively thin person, it is no longer like before, and it looks like a bamboo pole from a distance.

Wanyun covered her lips and chuckled: "Perhaps, if you don't grow taller, Master Li and the Thirteenth Master should also be worried, I guess I have to think about whether to wait for you to 'grow up' a little bit before marrying you into the door!" ”

"Wanyun!" Dong Ting glanced at her secretly.

This stupid girl is really, which pot is not opened, Zhao Yan has long reached the age of marriage, but getting married is like a luxury for Zhao Yan, out of reach.

Seeing Dong Ting's eyes, at this time, Wanyun also realized that she had said something that she shouldn't have said: "I'm sorry, county lord, I didn't mean to say that." ”

Wanyun secretly blamed herself, and hated herself to death in her heart.

blamed her for being careless for a while, and even mentioned this matter again, didn't this make Zhao Yan feel blocked?

I blinked and said with a smile: "What are you doing, it's not just a matter of getting married, and it's not something that can't be said." ”

In fact, I don't introduce them to mention, firstly, it is a fact, secondly, I want to get married, and I don't have a partner now, because over the years, I have been busy running around, Li Chunqin and Zhao Li are often not by my side in order to share the burden for me, as for Wu Chengsi, since the quarrel that day, it didn't take long for Dexiu to return to the capital.

So it's still far away to get married!

Or......

It's never possible.

As if to see what was on my mind, Dong Ting said: "County Lord, I don't want to go back to Zhao in two days, or I ......."

"No!" Before she could finish speaking, I already shook my head: "It's mine, I can't run, it's not mine, if you chase him, he will run too." ”

And I promised Tokuxiu that I wouldn't bother Takeseiji's life again until I thought of a solution, so no, or better.

Hearing this, Dong Ting and Wanyun felt distressed for me.

"County Lord, you are like this, we look distressed, you said that you have done so much for this world, but why can't you get your own happiness!" Wanyun's eyes were about to fall, and her eyes were red.

"County Lord, why don't you talk to the four kings about this matter and see what they mean, after all, you are all eighteen years old this year, and you have reached the age of marriage, you can't really be married for the rest of your life, right? And you've done so much for them, they have to make a statement, don't they? Dong Ting proposed.

I looked up, looked at the clouds in the sky, and said in a faint voice: "What's the use of telling them?" In front of me, they will certainly not say anything, but what about the heart? You tell them not to worry, but are they really not worried in their hearts? That's impossible, as long as I have something on me that involves the power of their four countries, they can't have a day of peace of mind, so it's just a vain talk. ”

And I, too, have seen through it a long time ago, and I no longer ask for anything.
