"You care if I know you or not?"
Cai Miao was quite arrogant, "It doesn't matter that I know you, but it doesn't matter that I don't know you. I just want to ask you, do you dare to rob me?"
Bai Tao frowned slightly.
There is no point in spending a thousand pieces of gold to buy five dyed pigeons. The girl in front of you is obviously in competition.
She thought about it for a moment, and then said with a wicked smile, "I dare you."
She bid: "One thousand and one gold!"
"Twelve hundred gold!"
Baitao said calmly: "One thousand two hundred and one gold."
"Fifteen hundred gold!"
Baitao only followed a little bit each time, "One thousand five hundred and one gold." "
Cai Miao sarcastically said, "You are not only cowardly, but also stingy. Do you deserve it?" She shouted, "Two thousand gold! Do you still dare to ask me for a price?"
At this moment, more and more people from Lao Qin were surrounding them, and they began to gape at Cai Miao's arrogance, "This, this, this"
"Grandpa Heavenly Emperor, am I neither deaf nor blind?"
"Two thousand gold, I can't even think about it in my life, just to buy these broken pigeons."
"That's not right. Tsunagi-kun has only been prime minister for a few years. Where did he get such a large salary?"
Baitao stopped playing this childish game and said, "Two thousand taels of gold are just for five dyed pigeons. This girl is really a big injustice."
She moved to the crowd nearby, picked up a tame eagle from someone's shoulder, and threw a bag of gold to the person.
Considered a purchase.
The eagle's feathers were jet black, its eyes were ferocious, its back was like a cliff, and its mouth was like a hook for pulling out fire. It was extremely obedient and well-behaved in Baitao's hands.
Baitao held the eagle and tilted her head and said, "I don't know who is better, the eagle I bought for fifty gold or the five pigeons you bought for two thousand gold? Or do you think your pigeons are worthy of my eagle?"
The eagle also tilted its head, its eyes locked on the five pigeons in the cage.
Cai Miao's chest rose and fell, and she said loudly: "If you lose, you lose. If you can't defeat me, you will be my loser."
She cried again, "Grandpa said I don't want to fight with you, huh, why don't I fight with you?"
"I just want to fight with you! Now everyone says that you want to be the queen and the wife, so why can't I do it? Your Majesty is the strongest warrior in the Qin Dynasty, and I want to be the woman of the strongest warrior!"
As soon as these words came out, everyone in the audience was shocked.
However, the custom in Xianyang is very open, and some people even still retain the custom of "men and women traveling together, no coal and no employment". It is just about the love between men and women, and there is nothing difficult to talk about.
Everyone applauded this enthusiastic and straightforward girl, "Okay! If you want to be a woman who wants to be a king, she is the granddaughter of Lord Tsunagi, and she and King Qin are also from a famous family, so they are a perfect match."
"Hey, maybe our Qin country will have a Queen Cai."
"Just do it, there's nothing to be ashamed of."
Another person said, "Don't worry about the queen. Your Majesty needs to see the right person. It's not you who is marrying a wife. What do you order?"
"Ha ha ha ha!"
"If King Qin sees right, he will marry your old wife and become his queen!"
"Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!
"Bah! Hahahaha."
The people of Qin were excited to see the excitement, and they all started talking in a lively manner. They put their hands in their hands and moved their postures, and they talked so much that saliva flew everywhere.
Only the merchant, who was still immersed in the joy of two thousand gold, heard that selling a pigeon was actually involved in the Qin court. Especially this girl with half a peach blossom face, why should she be a queen?
He was so frightened that his legs weakened and he almost knelt down.
My dear mother... I should have known this...
When no one was paying attention, the merchant quickly closed his stall and ran away.
"boom."
Stepping on a well-proportioned calf on the stall, Cai Miao put one hand on her hips and rested one elbow on her kneecap. She raised her long eyebrows and protested to Baitao, "For a man, I want to challenge you to a duel!"
The stall closing was blocked, and the merchants complained endlessly.
Baitao touched the black satin-like falcon in her arms, and finally understood the reason why Cai Miao was inexplicably targeting her, "If you want to be a queen or a wife, you go and win over the king. Why are you fighting with me here to win or lose? It’s not that if you win against me, you can become the queen and the wife.”
pity.
The little fox still thinks that jealousy between women is too simple.
Cai Miao saw how indifferent she was about her beloved, and said unfairly: "I just want to fight with you, I just want to win you. I want you to see clearly, see clearly, who is the most qualified to match him." woman!"
Baitao: "..."
Cai Miao patted her chest and sneered when she saw Baitao's small body, "You're just like this, you're just mediocre."
Anyway, it doesn't make sense. Baitao is also spirited and won't talk nonsense: "Okay, then let's fight."
There are many people outside, and the heat is surging.
Baitao simply went into a nearby inn with Cai Miao.
Good inns all have separate courtyards, which are spacious and can be used for competitions.
Regardless of whether he was competing in terms of skill or anything else, Baitao still didn't believe that he couldn't beat any mortal.
However, as we walked towards him, we met an acquaintance, Ba Qing.
Ba Qing, with her waist twisted and graceful, was scolding a waiter with foam at the mouth. When she saw Baitao wearing a hood, she picked her out from the crowd with her sharp eyes, "Oh, good sister, my good sister. , do you still remember me, my old sister?"
Baitao was a little surprised: "Sister Ba Qing, don't you open an inn near Xianyang City?"
Ba Qing covered his face with a handkerchief, "It's not just that the business is getting bigger and bigger, all the shops here have gone bankrupt, so who can complain about the money? Naturally, I bought these bankrupt shops. Now there are three out of the ten inns in Xianyang." It's opened by my Ba family, it's just a matter of paying business taxes on time."
She twisted off the veil and asked Baitao to Cai Miao next to her, "Good sister, who is this?"
Before Baitao could answer, Cai Miao said, "I am Tsunade-kun's granddaughter, Cai Miao."
"Oh, Tsunade-kun. Although I am not from the Qin State, I know that he is the former prime minister of the Qin State, right? The one who later took up the idle post?"
Cai Miao looked embarrassed.
Ba Qing's lips showed a smile, and he left a little room for Cai Miao, who had a bad look. "Hey, girl, don't be angry, I'm just a little businesswoman, how can I know so much, and I'm not someone else?" I believe whatever you say, I just listen to the wind and it rains, I have very thin eyelids.”
Cai Miao was angry in her heart, but she couldn't let it out after being told like this, "Get out of the way."
Ba Qing swayed her waist and looked back a few more times. She saw that the cold-faced man next to Baitao had not yet followed her.
He quickly came up to her casually, "Sister, do you want to compete in another courtyard?"
Baitao was slightly stunned: "How do you know?"
The gold-plated old full-green glazed rhinestones on Ba Qing's ears were dazzling. She nodded at her with the end of her eyes and said with a smile, "It has already reached the entrance of Old Sister's shop. It's so lively. How can Old Sister do this?" Not rare."
I see, but maybe she was looking down from upstairs just now, so Baitao didn't notice her presence.
Cai Miao: "Are you done yet? You still talk so much during the competition."
Ba Qing covered his mouth with a smile, and leaned against Baitao inadvertently, "Well, seeing that my good sister is here, do you want to talk about old times more? Miss Cai Miao, don't worry, what kind of villa do you want? The flowers are pretty Yes, civilian women have this."
"Hmph, no need."
Cai Miao took out the token and entered the entrance of an elegant, deep, quiet and spacious villa.
She glanced directly past Ba Qing, who was twisting around, and looked at Baitao, who was supporting Baqing, "You are an orphan from Zhao Guolai. You were raised as a princess in the harem. Your name is Baitao, right?"
Knowing quite clearly, Baitao nodded.
"I know you haven't endured much hardship, so I won't compete with you on horseback. It seems like I'm bullying you. Let's compete with bows and arrows. We have frequent wars in Daqin, and both men and women, old and young, are soldiers. If you dare to say that you If you don't know how to shoot, wouldn't you be holding your Majesty back?"
Baitao: "Anything is fine."
She didn't say that her equestrian skills were well taught by Brother Zheng, and asked: "How to compete in archery?"
"Didn't we compete for pigeons just now? Let's compete with who can shoot more pigeons in a short period of time. If you shoot fewer pigeons than me, then you lose. The loser will automatically withdraw from running for queen in the future."
As she said that, she pushed open the lacquered wooden door of the other courtyard, "As for how to testify and who to testify with, I happened to have a bunch of sisters who made an appointment with me to order tea and throw pots here. I saw you on the street and were delayed. Now they It just so happens that they are all here, so it is not unfair to let them judge and compare.”
Baitao's eyes were on her hand that pushed open the courtyard door.
"Squeak——"
The door opened.
The yard is covered with yellow flowers and the fence is fragrant. There are more than a dozen young girls standing or sitting inside, laughing and playing.
They were dressed in extremely luxurious clothes, followed by a bunch of serving girls, and there was a stove in the middle, where they were cooking fragrant fruits.
Hearing the movement outside the door, they all turned and looked back.
But at that moment of turning around, there was a beautiful and charming figure in the world.
Appraising eyes came over one after another. Among these girls, a girl in red wearing a beaded hairpin took the lead and spoke loudly, "Let me see who is coming. Oh, it turns out to be our Miss Cai. She's coming late." Sometimes, we sisters can be asked to wait."
Cai Miao went over and said, "It's a little late. Sisters, come and see who this is."
In this group of Xianyang ladies, it is obviously the girl in red who is talking.
The girl in red looked at Bai Tao, who was wearing a hood, "Yeah, she looks familiar and pretty, but it's a pity that she doesn't show her face. Who is this little girl?"
"This is Baitao, the young master of the harem."
Cai Ze walked over and took a pot of tea, poured it in a slurping manner, and said to Baitao, "This is the legitimate daughter of Prime Minister Lu and Mrs. Lu, Lu Qiujing."
"White peach?"
"Is it the white peach?"
Like pebbles thrown into Pinghu, the moment the identity was revealed, it instantly stirred up waves. The surprised or surprised eyes of these noble ladies were like paintings inlaid with silk.
After a breath, Lu Qiujing stared at Baitao and murmured to Cai Miao, "Good sister, are you trying to bluff us? This little mistress of Baitao, who is raised in a deep palace, even my father, who is very busy with official duties, is talking about it." As I said, you said you wanted to offer him as a treasure, how dare you actually invite someone here?"
The other ladies were also suspicious, but they didn't dare to say anything.
Cai Miao tapped the white peach with the end of her eyes.
Baitao Luoluo took off her hood generously and said calmly: "I'm not bluffing, the mistress of the harem is me."
As she did this, she took off her hood.
It is as if it is telling the world what it means to be radiant and what it means to be untouchable when the bright moon rises into the sky. Even Xianyang Shumei, who boasts her excellent beauty when taking photos of herself in the surroundings, feels ashamed.
"hiss---"
Among the ladies, uncontrollable gasps could be heard one after another.
When they saw Baitao Dao's appearance, their expressions were not too tense.
The girl's family was waiting to leave the cabinet.
Naturally, he would think about what kind of husband he would marry in the future, and the King of Qin was young, promising and handsome, and there was only one person in his harem.
That person is still a helpless orphan, and it will be easy to think about it in the future. Thinking about it, King Qin is really a too good husband.
Water flows to lower places and people climb to higher places.
It's impossible to say that they didn't want a place in the harem, but when they saw the white peach in front of them, they felt like they were being pinched and wilted as they pulled out the weeds.
How can they compare? How can they compare?
Lu Qiujing came from a good family and was born with etiquette and dogma. Her expression was quite natural: "No wonder your Majesty wanted to hide him. For so many years, we only know his person but not his appearance. It turns out that he really has flowers. "
Cai Miao curled her lips and said: "Both the left and the right are human beings. They are divided into high and low, just beautiful and ugly. To be the queen of a country, among other things, you must at least be able to convince everyone. If you don't convince everyone, then this queen will not win. Admit it, isn’t it just a fake display?”
It just so happens that the King of Qin is going to be crowned this year. I think it's about 20 to 20, and it's time to marry the queen.
Cai Miao also got into trouble and became aggressive, so she insisted on finding a chance to compete.
Baitao's agreement was exactly what she wanted.
Cai Miao went to get two bows and arrows and threw one to Baitao, "Sisters, I can bear witness that as long as I lose, I, Cai Miao, will stay far away from King Qin and will not bother talking to my grandfather about marriage. If If this little master loses, he will automatically give up his position."
"good!"
A young lady on the cushion couldn't help but said, and after speaking, she lowered her head timidly.
Another noble girl said: "Sister Cai is an excellent archer and hits ten out of ten shots. I remember the last time I went hunting in autumn, when I saw Sister Cai returning home with a full load, I also praised Tsunaro-kun for raising a good daughter."
"Yes, she won the archery competition for sure this time."
Cai Miao exhaled and raised her eyebrows, and said to Baitao: "Archery is just a skill that I have practiced hard for ten years. If nothing else, it is just that I am very accurate. What's wrong? Are you afraid?"
Baitao let the falcon stand on her shoulders, freed her hand to pull the bow, "The bow is good."
"What's the use of looking good? It's a useless embroidered pillow." Cai Miao sneered, "I'll make you lose all the time later."
