Chapter 454: Building a More Intimate Relationship
Originally, it was a few polite words, but who knew that Princess Beizhao nodded without hesitation.
"That's what I mean."
When she said this, she specially glanced at Qi Jingxing, who was pretending to watch a play, but in fact secretly glanced at Shen Youqiu's location, and there was a smile on the corner of her mouth that she didn't realize.
"You Da Song not only have these good things you said, but also very good people."
After speaking, she groaned, blinked her long eyelashes, and said playfully: "Your Majesty, when I visit your capital, I naturally need your people to be my guide, can I ask the emperor to borrow someone, just lend me a few days, be my guide."
"Hahaha, who do you want to borrow?" The Emperor laughed.
"Oh, that's it." The princess pointed to Qi Jingxing, who was sitting not far from them, "This little general came to escort us and left a deep impression on us, can you lend him to me?" Chinese Net
"The princess has a lot of vision." The emperor touched his beard and smiled, "Okay, then let Qi Jingxing be your guide, if you want to stay in our Great Song Dynasty for a few days, he will be your guide for a few days!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Daya immediately bowed her head slightly and saluted with a smile.
At this time, Qi Jingxing, who was still looking at his daughter-in-law and smiling, didn't know that he was about to fall into the pit, and was laughing, when the emperor's chamberlain came over and informed him of the task, the smile on his face suddenly froze in place.
"The princess has appointed me to accompany you?"
"Exactly." The waiter smiled, "The little general is the dragon and phoenix among the people of our Great Song Dynasty, and the princess asked the general to accompany you, which shows that you are not ordinary, hehe, the little general, this important task of accompanying foreign guests will be handed over to you."
Qi Jingxing was stunned for a moment, looked back in the direction where the princess was, and it happened that the princess also looked over, and beckoned with a smile, looking very happy.
He could only nod his head slightly in respect, and then sat back down, ignoring it.
I just hope that this princess will not affect Yocho.
Thinking about it, he raised his head again and looked in the direction of Shen Youqiu, but found that this girl was eating the fruit he had sent over, and while eating, she also commented on the repertoire on the stage, looking very happy, and she didn't notice her side at all the whole time.
So, he subconsciously smiled, and after laughing, his face turned black again.
This girl, is she thinking about him?
And the absent-minded people at the banquet, in addition to Qi Jingxing, there were also the noble ladies who were sitting in Shen Youqiu's place.
Because of Qi Jingxing's gaze from time to time, as well as the gentle and intoxicating smile on the corner of his mouth, most of the unmarried girls in this place, and even some married ladies, couldn't help but feel their hearts sprout, and they looked at Qi Jingxing from time to time, looking forward to an inadvertent ambiguous look.
Therefore, none of these girls had time to find trouble with Shen Youqiu.
On the contrary, they are constantly suspicious and quarreling with each other.
The banquet soon came to an end, and the emperor and the envoys also talked about some rough points of the trade between the two countries, and after learning that a small half of the land area of the Northern Zhao Kingdom actually had iron ore distribution, the emperor's heart couldn't help but shake.
He almost immediately thought of the idea of using iron to make weapons from a few generals before him.
As a king, he naturally knows the importance of weapons and equipment and military strength to a country, but the disaster in the Great Song Dynasty last year was too serious, so he must now pacify the people as much as possible, and to pacify the people well, what he has to do is to satisfy them in the four aspects of clothing, food, housing and transportation.
Therefore, he ordered the large-scale production of iron tools and farm tools, and because the amount of iron tools needed was too large, if the iron ore of the imperial court was used in large quantities for the production of agricultural tools, and then wanted to use it for the production of weapons, it would be somewhat insufficient.
But if you can get the iron ore of Beizhao Kingdom, then the situation will be different.
On the side, the princes and concubines naturally heard these conversations, and for a while, they each had their own thoughts.
In view of this
A big business, the emperor wants to keep the princess for a while longer, of course, if the princess can be completely left in the Great Song Dynasty, maybe the relationship between the two countries can be more close.
Thinking, he looked at his crown prince.
But the crown prince now has a crown princess.
If this princess were his own concubine......
Thinking of this, his old eyes couldn't help but swell with some fiery heat unique to young people.
To be honest, he still likes this princess, young, beautiful, energetic, and has a fiery feeling that they don't have in the Central Plains, this feeling makes him admire youth incomparably, and can't help but recall what he looked like when he was young.
However, I am afraid that my body will not last for a few years.
In case he is really gone, I am afraid that it will affect the relationship between the two countries, but being able to become his woman is actually an honor for this princess of Beizhao, after all, Beizhao is much smaller than Da Song.
Just thinking about it, the eldest prince looked at Princess Beizhao with a smile and said directly, "Princess, why don't you change me to be your guide."
He looked calm, with a confident smile on his face, "You don't know, this little General Qi didn't grow up in the capital when he was a child, but grew up in the border pass, and he is actually not familiar with the capital, if you really want to find a guide, in fact, His Royal Highness is more suitable."
"What's more, the status of a princess is noble, and if I accompany you, it will show our respect and respect for you even more."
He said this lukewarmly, anyway, it was not a matter of a day or two to have a bad relationship with Qi Jingxing, so he said it directly.
The expressions of the people were uncertain, but the emperor was still a little satisfied in his heart, he didn't like his sons to get too close to the generals.
Because the generals of the Great Song Dynasty are all really powerful.
And Qi Jingxing was also relieved in his heart, he didn't want to accompany this princess of Beizhao Kingdom, not to mention, this princess was a little strange.
So, he pushed the boat down the river and said, "Yes, princess, otherwise, let His Royal Highness the Great Prince accompany you around the capital, His Royal Highness is noble, and it is more suitable to accompany you."
Seeing this, the emperor was also ready to order the eldest prince to accompany him.
If the eldest prince can win the heart of this princess, he can also form a good relationship with Beizhao Kingdom.
Who knew that the princess just glanced at the eldest prince and showed no interest.
"No, you're boring to watch."
She smiled and looked at Qi Jingxing, "I think you are more in line with my eyes, and you are the benefactor of our mission, so I want you to accompany me to play, what, don't you want to?"
