Chapter 50: The Three Princesses of the Kingdom of Qi
The First Emperor followed Qin Wen and Long Ao, who disguised himself as a servant, and finally came to the capital of Qi after a few days.
Looking at the bustling traffic in the capital of Qi State, the endless flow of vendors, and the crowd, a solemn and glorious scene, people can't help but feel the prosperity of Qi State, Qin Wen's eyes are full of yearning, and the First Emperor is quiet, such a scene is like a little witch to him, Xianyang under his rule is not much stronger than Zhi, and Long Ao is face is calm, for a cultivator like him, except for strength, there is nothing else in his eyes that can attract his attention.
Qin Wen sighed with emotion: "Ah, it really deserves to be the national capital, and it is so prosperous." "There was pride and pride in my eyes.
Seeing this, the First Emperor smiled coldly: "Although the Qi State is prosperous, but for the Qin State, the prosperity of the Qi State can only be regarded as a small witch. ”
Qin Wen was surprised: "It's just a little witch who is so prosperous, so how powerful should the Qin country be." Sir, don't you fool me? ”
The First Emperor smiled, "Hehe, I... When you have been to the Qin State and seen the prosperity of the Qin State again, you will know what prosperity is and what prosperity is. ”
When Qin Wen heard this, he suddenly revered for a while: "There is such a prosperous era in the world, Wen must take a look at it and see why the prosperous era in Mr. Wen's mouth is prosperous." ”
The First Emperor smiled and said, "I can guarantee that you will be shocked when you see it, okay, let's find a place to live first." On the way to Qi, the first emperor has mastered all the basic information of the capital of Qi, such as this Renyun Inn, which is the largest inn in the capital of Qi, and it is also a place where high-ranking officials of Qi gather.
The first emperor entered the Renyun Inn and saw that there was a huge stage in the center of the inn, there were singing and dancing performances on the stage, there were guests all around, the seats for entertaining guests were built around this stage, there were only five floors high, the first emperor found the law at first sight, the bottom layer was all peddlers and pawns, the second floor was the merchants, the third floor was the children of the eunuchs, the scholars and literati, the fourth floor were all bureaucrats, and the fifth floor must be high-ranking officials and nobles.
The First Emperor saw through the rules here in an instant, and then Xiao Er came to the three of them and asked, "Is the guest officer going to stay in the hotel or rest?" ”
The first emperor said: "Stay in the hotel, open a private room to be alone, well, let's have some wine and food first." ”
Xiao Er was stunned for a moment, this private room is alone, it is not a separate room, but a separate garden, and those who can live here must be rich and expensive, because the cost of living alone is as high as one hundred gold coins every day, which is not something that ordinary people can afford, and only powerful people can have it.
Since the development of the Earth Star Realm, the currency has replaced the previous currency with three currencies of gold, silver and copper, one hundred copper coins for one silver coin, one hundred silver coins for one gold coin, and an ordinary family of three has only two or three gold coins per year.
Xiao Erleng paused for a moment and hurriedly said with a smile: "Guest officer, please come with me." Xiao Er hurriedly led the way ahead and led the three of them to a separate room on the fifth floor.
The first emperor looked out the window, just in time to see the big stage below, the actions of the first emperor and others also attracted everyone's attention, generally people who can go up to the fifth floor are not ordinary people, even if there are many second- and third-grade officials in the court, they can also go to the fifth floor, after all, although there are many second- and third-grade officials, it is difficult to support such a high consumption.
The people underground were talking about who it was, and even the original people on the fifth floor were stunned, after all, the three first emperors were new faces, and there was a message from one of the rooms: "Ya'er, you go and inquire, who are those three people?" ”
A maid bowed her head and said, "Yes, Your Highness the Princess." Then he exited the room, apparently to inquire about the identities of the three First Emperors.
Xiao Er quickly served the wine and food and said to the First Emperor: "Three guest officers, there will be an auction to be held in our Renyun Inn tonight, if the three guest officers are interested, they can participate, and if they have any favorite things, they can also auction them." ”
The First Emperor asked, "Auctions?" Will there be an auction at this inn? ”
Xiao Er suddenly smiled when he heard this: "The three of them must not be locals, our Renyun Inn, there will be an auction every month, there are countless rare treasures in the auction, there are also cultivation cheats, there will be pills, rare medicinal materials or something, everything is available, if the guest officer is interested, you can take a look." ”
The First Emperor smiled slightly and said, "This is quite interesting, it's okay, just take a look, this is a reward for you." After saying that, the first emperor casually threw a money bag and gave it to Xiao Er, Xiao Er hurriedly took it, looked at the golden gold coins in the money bag, and was overjoyed and hurriedly thanked him.
The First Emperor smiled: "Okay, you go down, don't disturb our meal, and when the auction starts, come and report it." ”
Xiao Er hurriedly responded, and then left the room.
After Xiao Er left, Qin Wen said: "Unexpectedly, it turns out that Mr. is a rich and noble person, please redeem Qin Wen's clumsiness, but he has never seen it." ”
Seeing that his face was calm, the First Emperor seemed to have realized something, and immediately scolded with a smile: "Okay, you Qin Wen, you have already seen it, why bother with me like this." ”
Qin Wen was seen through and suddenly smiled a little embarrassed: "Hehe, don't be surprised, sir, it's just a little playful, Wen knew that Mr. was extraordinary from the beginning, and the servants around Mr. were not ordinary people, let alone Mr., but Wen was curious about what Mr. was?" ”
The First Emperor smiled, "Now is not the time to tell you, but I will tell when I feel it is appropriate." ”
Qin Wen didn't get entangled, and said with a chic smile: "This is Qin Wen's abruptness, since Mr. thinks it's not the time to tell each other, then drink, Qin Wen doesn't want to ask anymore, and when Mr. thinks it's appropriate, I'll tell you." After speaking, he sat down, picked up the wine jug and poured three glasses, picked up one and drank it alone, and his eyebrows were full of pride.
When the First Emperor heard this, he also smiled and said: "Okay, drink, come, Long Ao, you drink too, today regardless of master and servant, no matter how big or small, drink to your heart's content." ”
Long Ao bowed down to express his gratitude and sat down to drink the wine glass, there was no toast or compliment, but the three of them drank very happily.
Just after the three of them had drunk three rounds, a voice came from the door: "My princess has invited three gentlemen to the table." "The person who came was the maid of the princess of Qi who wanted to know the identity of the three emperors.
The monarch of Qi has two sons and a daughter, the princess is the third princess of Qi, it is rumored that the three princesses are outstanding, more than a hundred times stronger than the two brothers, but it is a pity that the daughter has no chance to take the throne, but the power in the court is extremely strong, not only appreciated by Prime Minister Fan Jigao, but also praised by Lin Ran, and he has a strong army, and the monarch of Qi is also very fond of him, which can be said to be loved by thousands of people.
The third princess asked people to inquire about the identities of the three emperors, but they couldn't, and the three princesses immediately asked the maid to invite the three of them over.
When the First Emperor heard this, he frowned and said, "Princess? This princess of Qi is really strange, we have never met her, why invite us. "The First Emperor's words were mainly for Qin Wen, after all, Qin Wen was from the Qi State.
Qin Wen was stunned for a moment, and then listened to the words of the first emperor: "The third princess of Qi is the youngest daughter of the monarch, her strength is outstanding, it is said that she has reached the late stage of the innate realm, and she is only one step away from the realm of practicing qi, and she also has an extremely strong army in her hands, I heard that this army is not weaker than General Lin Ran's cavalry, and all of them are equipped with martial arts, I heard that her two lieutenants are both strong people in the innate realm, but her most powerful thing is not these, but his excellent political acumen, this Qi country can have such a prosperous scene, Half of the credit goes to the third princess. Qin Wen's face was full of yearning when he spoke, this is the yearning for the strong, the yearning for his political ability.
When the first emperor heard this, he was stunned, and at the same time he had a strong interest in the third princess of Qi State, so he said: "Since it was invited by the princess, then we will go to pay a visit, please wait for a while." ”
Then the First Emperor stood up, the true qi in his body was running, and he immediately slapped all the wine on his body out of his body, and then the first emperor put one hand on Qin Wen's body, and the true qi was running, Qin Wen suddenly felt clear-headed, and the wine on his body disappeared without a trace, and Long Ao also expelled all the wine on his body when he saw this.
After the three of them tidied up, the first emperor took the two out of the room and went to the third princess's private room under the leadership of the maid Ya'er.
Seeing the third princess, Qin Wen bowed down and said, "Qin Wen has seen the third princess. ”
When the third princess heard this, she asked, "Mr. is Qin Wen, but he is the son of Qin Xiang?" ”
Qin Wen bowed again and said, "Exactly." ”
The third princess smiled: "I didn't expect it to be the son of Qin Xiang, the world brother does not need to be polite, think about it, I am still Qin Xiang's disciple, the world brother is the son of Qin Xiang, presumably the tiger father has no dog son, and the talent of the world brother must be extraordinary." ”
Qin Wen said modestly: "Princess Miao praised, Wen is far worse than the father of the family. ”
The third princess nodded, then turned her head to look at the First Emperor and Long Ao and asked, "I don't know who the two gentlemen are?" ”
Long Ao arched his hand and said, "I'm just a servant, not worth mentioning. ”
The First Emperor just said lightly: "Qin people, Zhao Zheng." ”
Seeing that the First Emperor was so arrogant, Ya'er beside the third princess suddenly said angrily: "Bold fanatic, Her Royal Highness the princess is so arrogant in front of her." ”
The third princess frowned and said, "Bold, how can you talk to Mr. like this, palm your mouth." ”
The maid looked unconvinced, but when she saw the princess glaring angrily, she didn't dare to speak, so she could only slap herself twice.
The third princess smiled and apologized: "It really made Mr. laugh, it was Tian Fei's lax discipline, and I hope that Mr. Haihan is still looking forward." ”
The First Emperor shook his head indifferently and said, "I didn't care, I don't know what the princess invited us to come to?" ”
The third princess said with a smile: "Just because the three of them have extraordinary bearings and are new faces, they must be extraordinary people, Tian Fei likes to make friends by nature, so he takes the liberty to disturb, and I hope the three gentlemen will forgive me." ”
The First Emperor frowned slightly, but didn't say anything, but said lightly: "It's okay, we have heard the name of the princess for a long time, and it is a pleasure to meet today." ”
