As Qin Feng and Jing Ci broke out, the people around them became quiet.
Seeing the tense situation between the two, everyone realized that they had mistakenly blamed Jing Ci. For a moment, many people at the scene were blushing. Some timid people even rubbed oil on the soles of their feet on the spot for fear of being held accountable.
Jing Ci never thought that this seemingly low-level double act would actually work.
I felt complicated in my heart. I didn't know whether I should lament the ignorance of the people or thank Qin Feng for his secret help.
In order to appease the masses, Jing Ci could only continue to act.
"Transaction cancelled? Okay! When the time comes for the two countries to trade, your Qin family will be prohibited from entering our Dadi to do business. I want to see how tough you can be!"
What are you afraid of? These words directly touched Qin Feng's weakness.
Qin Feng felt chilled, but fortunately, Jing Ci was just acting on the spot and did not take what he just said seriously.
Qin Feng didn't dare to continue acting, for fear that it would be a fake show.
Under the gaze of everyone, Qin Feng waved his hand and left without looking back.
After a moment of silence, deafening cheers erupted.
"Hahaha, little thief Qin Feng, aren't you crazy? When you meet Her Royal Highness, aren't you at your wits' end?"
"Hmph! This is my territory of Dadi, how can I allow you to make mistakes!"
"As expected of Your Highness!"
"Your Royal Highness, the princess, is a thousand years old and may you show your country's prestige!"
Listening to the cheers coming from all directions, Jing Ci couldn't help frowning, looking at Qin Feng's retreating back, feeling tangled in his heart.
If Qin Feng hadn't helped her just now, she would have been ruined.
In the face of national events, taking one step may lead to falling into an abyss.
Jing Ci was grateful to Qin Feng from the bottom of his heart, but when he thought that he was Princess Dadi and Qin Feng was the minister of the "enemy country", the gratitude that had finally arisen in his heart was replaced by cold hostility.
The play just now was not just as simple as acting, it also sounded a wake-up call for Jing Ci.
No matter what, as a citizen of Dadi, she must stand on the opposite side of Qin Feng and nip the good feelings deep in her heart in the cradle.
Almost as soon as Qin Feng walked out of the crowd, Zhang Bingguo led troops from the Ministry of War and hurried to the scene.
Seeing that the restlessness at the scene had subsided, Zhang Bingguo couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and quickly bowed to Qin Feng and saluted: "Zhang Bingguo, the Minister of the Ministry of War, has long admired the name of the Marquis of Qin, so it is polite."
"I am holding a banquet at the best restaurant in the capital to welcome the Marquis of Qin."
Take the wind and wash away the dust?
Qin Feng looked Zhang Bingguo up and down, and hummed in his heart. He was indeed an old fox who could sit in the position of minister.
He never mentioned the turmoil just now!
Qin Feng didn't even bother to act with Zhang Bingguo. He patted Zhang Bingguo on the shoulder and said sincerely: "I accept Zhang Shangshu's kindness with all my heart. I will skip the banquet."
"I have already experienced the enthusiasm of the emperor and the subjects of your country. As for those curses and abuses, I will pretend that I have not heard them and will never make a big fuss about them."
"Excuse me, Zhang Shangshu, to send a message to General Chen. I will host a banquet for General Chen tonight. Firstly, it is a good friend to reminisce about the past, and secondly, I want to apologize to General Chen."
"I didn't know until I arrived in your capital that Chen Mou and Chen Li are relatives of General Chen."
Qin Feng didn't give Zhang Bingguo a chance to answer the call, and said bluntly: "I wonder where the post house is? After traveling thousands of miles, I am really tired of people and horses. I just want to have a good rest. Can you help me lead the way?"
Zhang Bingguo smiled brightly and quickly made a gesture of invitation: "Why are you still standing there? Quickly lead the way for Marquis Qin."
Watching Qin Feng leave, the smile on Zhang Bingguo's face disappeared instantly.
Turning his head and glancing at the shoulder that Qin Feng had just patted, he patted it with a look of disgust and snorted coldly: "I don't know what it means!"
The Minister of War who was accompanying him also had an extremely ugly expression.
"Your Majesty, you are the Minister of Finance. He is a minister of Dadi. How dare you, Qin Feng, slap your Lord on the shoulder? How arrogant!"
Zhang Bingguo's face was full of disdain: "More than just arrogance? This is clearly a threat to me!"
"Child Qin Feng is very shrewd. He naturally understands that today's turmoil in the city and the gathering of people are all due to the intentions of the court officials."
"He made no secret of it and pointed out how powerful it was. He was just warning us that forget it this time and let us make our own decisions next time."
"Haha, what General Chen said is absolutely right. This guy looks like a cucumber egg at first glance, but in fact he has been cooked for a long time."
The Minister of War had a gloomy face and looked in the direction where Qin Feng left with a sharp look.
"He has arrived in the capital of Dadi and still dares to be so rampant. Doesn't he know that in addition to rational officials like me, there are also some lunatics who have been targeting him for a long time?"
"Those lunatics do things regardless of the consequences."
Zhang Bingguo flicked his sleeves, turned around and walked back, saying angrily: "Why do you care so much? People in this city who want to fight Qin Feng can line up from the palace gate to the city gate."
"You and I don't have to get involved in this mess."
At the same time, Qin Feng, led by officials from the Ministry of War, had arrived at the post office.
The posthouse seemed extremely busy. A dozen handymen were panting, moving tables and chairs, and cleaning the lobby.
Seeing this situation, Ning Hu said angrily: "Cramming before the battle? Why did you go there earlier? Brother Qin, they don't take you seriously."
Qin Feng smiled: "On the contrary, they take me too seriously."
Ning Hu was confused: "How to say?"
Qin Feng pointed to the broken table in front of him: "This is the post house in Beidi Capital. It is specially used to receive foreign guests. Even if it is bad, it will not drop in price like this."
"I'm afraid the post office found these crappy things from all over the place, just to embarrass me."
"But now the direction has changed. They were afraid that I would make a fuss about war reparations, so they made temporary remedies."
After Qin Feng's explanation, Ning Hu suddenly realized.
Instead of feeling angry, I felt proud.
"Haha, Brother Qin, even though you haven't done anything, the capital of Beidi is already in chaos."
"These guys want to eat you alive, but when they actually face you, they are scared to death."
Qin Feng was not in a hurry to go in, he just leaned against the door and waited for the handyman to clean the post house.
As for whether Beidi officials are afraid of themselves, it actually doesn't matter.
According to Qin Feng's guess, Beidi officials can be divided into three factions.
The first faction is naturally the dove faction, focusing on follow-up work and putting national interests first.
The second faction, the hawks, tried to find a way to kill Qin Feng.
The third faction is the lunatics. Compared to the hawks, these lunatics are the ones that Qin Feng is truly afraid of.
