Scheming Prince’s Rampant Again - Chapter 194
No country above Zhongzhou has a longer history than Nanming.
The vast Wenhe River traverses the fertile land with rich products, which gave birth to the earliest ancient country and civilization. Most of the hegemonists who once stood aloof have risen from this time. However, no one can tell exactly when it started. Nanming, the most glorious country in the past, is holding back the magnificent mountains and rivers and heading for decline.
However, these distressed people only belong to a very small number of people in Nanming who still have a little feeling of family and country.
When I first came to Nanming, even Mo GUI, who has seen a lot, was shocked by the beauty and magnificence of the place. He walked on the moist soil with the smell of wheat under his feet, but when he looked up, he could see the towering mountains covered with snow caps not far away. This kind of scenery is rare in other parts of Zhongzhou.
“This mountain is called Tianping mountain, which is a natural boundary. On the other side of the mountain is the Luocha sea, and across the sea is hordu, the notorious bandit country. Had it not been for Tianping mountain, hall would have stretched out his black hand for a long time, and now he sends ships from time to time to try to cross Tianping mountain to Zhongzhou. ”
At the junction of Xiping and Nanming, Shi tongzui introduced the natural landscape nearby with great interest. Bu Qingyi took a deep breath, and his nose was full of the faint aroma of mature wheat, which was refreshing.
“It’s really a beautiful place, and along the way, I feel that the people of Nanming are also very simple. Should they live a long life here?”
“If you like, you can choose Nanming to settle down.” When the same drunk blink of an eye, smile Yingying way, “I have a few houses in Nanming, bu girl do not dislike the old, I can sell you at a low price!”
“It’s really a unscrupulous businessman. He’s always thinking about making dirty money.”
Mo GUI makes up a mockery at the right time, but is stabbed by Bu Qingyi’s elbow. He takes a breath and shut up.
In the smell of vinegar, a soldier rushed to report: “princess, the official from Nanming has arrived. Your highness King Jin, please take Princess Arnold to the front.”
Bu Qingyi gently nods his head toward Mo GUI and turns back to pull up Princess ano’s little hand.
Due to the smooth journey, the team of Xiping arrived four days earlier than expected. Nanming’s official in charge of reception was still in the nearby town. After receiving the notice, he came in a hurry. While waiting at the border, bu Qingyi took Princess Arnold to the caravan for a tour. Princess Arnold was not surprised to get drunk with Shi tongzui and had a good chat, which was another blow for Mo GUI.
There was vinegar, but he was no longer as angry as before.
After finishing Princess Arnold’s clothes, bu Qingyi took her to the front of the line on horseback, and a group of curious guys were following her.
When I saw Lu Jingyi, there was a young man standing opposite him. His clothes and accessories were different from those of Xiping people. I think he was an official of Nanming state. That popular Yu Xuanang, smile like a spring breeze, just looking at it, let life out of a sense of gratuitous closeness.
Seeing that Bu Qingyi came with Princess Arnold, Lu Jingyi nodded to her calmly and said, “this is Duke Shen of Nanming who is in charge of contacting us.”
Shen Gong? Is it the same time when he was drunk that Mr. Shen?
When Bu Qingyi was guessing, the man took the initiative to bow his hand to him, with a gentle smile between his eyebrows: “I think this is Qingxiang princess, who is well-known to everyone in Xiping.”
“Even Nanming has heard of her name?” Lu Jingyi was amused when he was surprised. “It seems that the most famous person in Xiping is Princess Qingxiang.”
Hearing Lu Jingyi’s joke, Shen Junhong shook his head with a smile: “it’s only out of personal relationship that I’ve heard about it. Your highness and the princess don’t know. In the past six months or so, nine of brother Zui’s ten letters have mentioned Princess Qingxiang. They are full of praise words. I can’t even hear them! ”
“Drunk brother?” Bu Qingyi was stunned for a short time, then couldn’t laugh or cry, “you said drunk brother, should it be…”
“Yes, that’s me.”
Shi tongzui suddenly emerged from behind Bu Qingyi and pointed to his cheek with pride. It seemed that he still wanted to take credit.
Bu Qingyi suddenly didn’t know what to say. He could only take a deep look at it and shake his head with a silent sigh.
Shi tongzui told her too many things about Nanming. Although these things were not confidential, they were not the inside information that ordinary people could understand. So at that time, bu Qingyi speculated that he might have contacts with Nanming officials. However, she never thought that Shi tongzui and Shen Junhong had known each other for a long time, and from Shen Junhong’s address to him, they were not ordinary friends.
It seems that his identity is far more than her guess.
“I have to talk to my boss when I have time.” Bu Qingyi turned her eyes to Shen Junhong and nodded slightly, “since my name has caused trouble to Mr. Shen, I don’t need to introduce myself. Let’s get to the point.”
Shen Junhong looked up at the sky and said, “that’s what I said. It’s getting late. Please follow me to the town first, and tomorrow we’ll have another day’s journey to the palace. “The land at the junction of Nanming and Xiping is the most fertile, and the climate is also very good, so the capital of Nanming is near here. Under the guidance of Shen Junhong, the Xiping mission first spent the night in a nearby town. Lu Jingyi and Princess Arnold were arranged to stay with a rich gentry. Bu Qingyi and Mo GUI chose a nearby Inn and did not live with the rest of the mission.
“It’s not easy for you to be separated from that boss, because he cheated you, so he was dissatisfied?” In the guest room, Mo GUI, who seems to be in a good mood, holds his shoulder and asks clearly.
Bu Qingyi squinted at him: “you don’t go back to your room to sleep in the middle of the night. What are you talking about here?”
“What room? There are two rooms left in the inn, one of which has been given the South candle. I can only live with you tonight. ” Mo guihao shrugged his shoulders in his spare time and looked at the extra bedding on the bed. “You see, I ordered an extra bedding. Don’t tell me to go out to sleep. It’s Nanming here. It’s like mosquitoes flying all over the place. If I go out to sleep, I’ll probably only have a pile of gloomy bones tomorrow morning. ”
At this time, Nanming was warm and humid, and there were more mosquitoes, but it was not so terrible to eat people. Bu Qingyi understood that this was just his exaggeration, but he was reluctant to let him go out to feed the mosquitoes. He could only glare at him and acquiesced in his wishful thinking.
They asked the kitchen to make some local wild vegetables and yellow rice. They had dinner in the room. They put down the dishes and chopsticks here and asked the young man to clean up. There were uninvited guests knocking on the door.
When I opened the door, the first thing I saw was Shi tongzui’s sunny face, and then Shen Junhong, who was standing behind him with a look of apology.
The visitor is a guest. He can’t fight with one punch. Bu Qingyi asked them to come in and sit down, but he didn’t intend to pour a cup of hot tea for them.
“When it’s over, I’ll say that girl Bu will be angry, right? You see, how much sacrifice did I make to help you? What a loss Shi tongzui pretended to be distressed and pulled Shen Junhong’s sleeve to complain.
Shen Junhong looked at Bu Qingyi with a bitter smile: “the princess should not believe that I let drunk brother cheat you, right? What this guy is good at is throwing the pot to others. I don’t know how much I’ve suffered for him since I grew up. ”
Bu Qingyi sat opposite them, quietly raised the teapot and said, “is it small? No wonder the relationship is so good. I’m a little curious. Since Mr. Shen and uncle Guo are cousins, the boss should not be an ordinary family when he was young? So is the so-called business identity just a skin to cheat people? ”
“No, Miss Bu misunderstood that being a businessman is my most important identity. Really, you believe me. ” When drunk, sit upright, trying to make a honest appearance.
It’s a pity that Shen Junhong immediately turned his back on him.
“Zui Ge began to do business only in recent years. His purpose is to travel around the world, learn some advanced culture and technology, and learn more about other countries. Although he always looks like a fool, speaking of status, Shaofu is not a low official position! ”
“Shaofu?” Bu Qingyi and Mo GUI share the same voice.
The official system of Nanming is different from that of other countries. In other countries, Nanming is just a young Fu holding an honorary position, while in Nanming, he is a real and prominent official position, which can only be held by someone who has both ability and learning as well as the ability to assist the country. However, to have such experience and ability, it usually takes decades of accumulation and learning. Therefore, Nanming Shaofu in the past were all old men with white beard and flowers, and it was difficult to get in touch with him when he was young.
But in other words, it also proves that shitongzui is a rare talent?
Bu Qingyi shook his head and sighed, showing a look of disappointment: “I didn’t expect that, boss No, Shi Shaofu has a high position in Nanming. It seems that my small calculation is in vain. ”
“I told you, you are not the same people.” Ink to light a, still can smell light vinegar.
When he was drunk, he scratched his ears. In his embarrassment, he was still a little curious: “what’s the abacus? For me? Don’t you know who I am? No, you don’t look surprised! ”
It’s a secret to win Shi tongzui over to Lu Jingyi, but Shi tongzui and Shen Junhong are very frank with her. However, after a few words of conversation, they tell Shi tongzui their true identity. Bu Qingyi thinks that they should come with sincerity. No matter what the ultimate goal is, it’s reasonable to disclose a little bit of information to them based on the principle of fairness.
“In fact,” Bu Qingyi blinked, trying to make his expression look sincere. “The Xiping imperial court is almost occupied by the old men, especially the lack of young blood, so I am entrusted by someone to find some talented people from the people to recommend as officials. At that time, the boss was well-informed and methodical. I intended to recommend him to the Ministry of officials to see if he could be appointed as an official
“Ah! That’s not to say that girl Bu didn’t treat me as a friend at all. She just wanted to dig the wall! ”
When the same drunk three wronged seven injured expression let Mo GUI greatly enjoy, not from the corner of the lip a hook: “just understand?””That makes it more embarrassing.” Shi tongzui turned to Shen Junhong and said in a low voice, “we are not friends or confidants, but we are really like each other! The more you talk, the more like it is! Right, hours? ”
Bu Qingyi was at a loss for a moment, but she quickly reflected that she couldn’t laugh or cry. When she pointed to her, she was drunk: “you should not get close to my purpose…”
“Well, that’s it.” Shen Junhong nodded his head, instead of Shitong Zui, and said, “brother Zui is chasing the princess for the purpose of bringing the lords to our side.”
