"Pour out the water and tidy up the room. I have something to do when I go out!" After Zhao Xuanyi finished speaking, he walked out.
"I wish you never come back!" Du Xinyu whispered.
Zhao Xuanyi called Shen Wei, and then took Tang Tianli and four Qilin guards with him to transport the car containing the coral. "Tang Tianli, you transport this to another house and wait there. The eldest princess will send someone to pick it up! If not Don’t give it to the eldest princess!”
"Yes!" Tang Tianli looked at the things in the car. "General, what is this thing? It doesn't look like a medicinal material, and it can't be eaten!"
Zhao Xuanyi smiled, "This thing is just a decoration, but it's worth 20%! It was originally from the bottom of the sea! You don't understand even if I tell you, just follow my orders!"
"Yes! Let's go first!" After Tang Tianli finished speaking, he led four Qilin Guards to transport the coral to Zhao Xuanyi's house in Baijuntang!
Zhao Xuanyi and Shen Wei came to the teahouse in the alley. According to the rules, after Zhao Xuanyi said the secret code, he went up to the second floor and sat in a private room to drink tea. Only then did Zhao Xuanyi seriously think about it!
What's going on with this coral? Most people can’t afford this stuff! Was it really shipped here by a foreign businessman to sell? Or is this for the big shot? Isn't it possible that I secretly ruined someone's good deeds?
No matter, we have brought all the things. Let's discuss it with her when Zhu Yuejun comes. Just like this, Zhao Xuanyi drank tea and waited. Half an hour later, Zhu Yuejun arrived.
"General Zhao, you have been very busy recently! I haven't seen you for a long time!" Zhu Yuejun said with a smile.
"Is everything okay, princess?" Zhao Xuanyi said with a salute.
"It's okay! What have you been busy with recently?"
Zhao Xuanyi chuckled, "I was busy with some small things. I went outside and slaughtered a group of bandits a few days ago to do justice to God!"
"A lot of good things were seized, right?" Zhu Yuejun said Zhao Xuanyi's purpose in one sentence!
"No, but I really found a good thing. How dare you keep it secretly? I plan to give it to the eldest princess!"
"Oh? What good thing?" Zhu Yuejun asked.
"This time, they robbed a lot of good things from the bandits' den. There was a cart containing a huge piece of coral. It was red. It was useless for me to keep it. I planned to give it to the eldest princess!"
When Zhu Yuejun heard about the coral, her eyes widened in surprise, "Coral? Where did you get it?"
"The bandits snatched it from who knows where, so I plan to give it to the eldest princess!"
After Zhu Yuejun heard this, he didn't care. He picked up the tea cup and took a sip of hot tea. "Sure, you have a conscience. Where is it?"
Zhao Xuanyi put a small note on the table, "The eldest princess sent someone to get it from this place, and it's right here!"
Zhu Yuejun picked up the note, looked at it, and nodded gently, "Sure, I get it! You can do it this time!"
Zhao Xuanyi poured a cup of tea for Zhu Yuejun, "Eldest Princess, let me ask you about someone!"
"Yeah! Tell me!" After receiving the gift, Zhu Yuejun was in a great mood!
"Have you heard that there is a man named Chen Lingfeng?" Zhao Xuanyi asked.
It would have been better not to say this. After Zhao Xuanyi finished speaking, Zhu Yuejun looked at Zhao Xuanyi in shock, and his eyes became very cold, "Where did you hear this name?"
"That's what the bandit leader said when I was suppressing bandits. He said I couldn't offend this person. The name he mentioned was Chen Lingfeng, but I didn't know him at all!"
After Zhu Yuejun heard this, he didn't speak immediately, and his eyes became very complicated. Zhao Xuanyi felt bad when he saw Zhu Yuejun's troubled eyes. I won't get into trouble, right?
After a long time, Zhu Yuejun finally said, "It turned out to be him, no wonder there are such precious items!"
Zhao Xuanyi listened quietly, waiting for Zhu Yuejun to tell him. Zhu Yuejun looked at Zhao Xuanyi, "Do you know how many princes we have in Ming Dynasty?"
"I only know King Yong'an, the person behind Li Wenzhou!"
Zhu Yuejun nodded, "There are three princes of the Ming Dynasty, King Yong'an Zhu Tianyou, and two princes, one is King Yongle and Zhu Qicheng! Together with King Taikang and Zhu Mingshang! And the Chen Lingfeng you are talking about is the godson of King Yongle Zhu Qicheng!"
When Zhao Xuanyi heard this, he felt bad. Did he really get into trouble with such a difficult person? "Princess, how is King Yongle? Does he have a good temper?"
Zhu Yuejun sneered, "How good would a man be if he allowed his godson to collude with bandits outside? It's just because he is the emperor's uncle, so he is arrogant and domineering!"
"Then... is my little life in danger?" Zhao Xuanyi asked with some fear. It would be easy for others, but I would have to fight with him, but when I meet this royal family, it will be difficult!
Seeing Zhao Xuanyi being so scared, Zhu Yuejun couldn't help but laugh, "What? Now the high-spirited General Zhao is still scared? Isn't it cool to have Qilin Guards under his command? Are you regretting it now?"
"Not really. If it were an ordinary person, I would be fine. But when it comes to your royal family, no matter how capable I am, it will all come to nothing in the end!"
Hearing Zhao Xuanyi's answer, Zhu Yuejun felt a little strange in her heart, because she knew the other meaning of Zhao Xuanyi's words. Zhu Yuejun sighed, "Don't worry, even if Chen Lingfeng has a bad temper, he will not be able to handle this matter." After all, it’s untenable and I don’t dare to trouble you, and you’re famous now, so I don’t dare to measure you!”
Zhao Xuanyi finally felt relieved after hearing Zhu Yuejun's words. It seemed that he had passed the test this time.
"You...couldn't you just get this coral? Are there any other good things?" Zhu Yuejun asked with a questioning look on his face.
"There is more, but the eldest princess probably won't be interested!" Zhao Xuanyi said with a smile.
Zhu Yuejun could tell at a glance that Zhao Xuanyi must be hiding something, so he directly asked, "Are you going to tell it yourself, or are you waiting for me to check it out myself?"
"Yes, you are the master, I will find some silver, but I have agreed! I don't plan to keep the money for myself. The Qilin Guard is too expensive, I plan to use it for military purposes!"
Zhu Yuejun nodded, "I understand your difficulty in building the Qilin Guard. I'm not interested in this! What else?"
"And...?" Zhao Xuanyi really didn't want to say it, because he knew this princess too well. If he told her, the princess would definitely snatch her away! But if she didn't say anything, she would still have a way to find out.
"Get some wine from the Western Regions!" Zhao Xuanyi said.
Zhu Yuejun was very excited after hearing this, "Are you talking about the Western Region agate wine? A wine that is as red as blood and as fresh as honey?"
As soon as Zhao Xuanyi saw it, he knew in his heart that he could not escape the princess's plan, "I was planning to give a few pots to the eldest princess!"
Zhu Yuejun narrowed his eyes and looked at Zhao Xuanyi, "Why don't I believe it? You would give this good thing to me? Humph!"
"Really! But this kind of wine is not as easy to store as our liquor. So I plan to build a wine cellar at home to store these wines! When the eldest princess is in the mood, I will provide it to you slowly!" Zhao Xuanyi said with a smile.
"Humph! It's done! I will host a banquet for you in a few days. Just come with some good wine!"
"No! Don't! The eldest princess's good intentions have finally taken over, so let's forget about the banquet!" Zhao Xuanyi hurriedly refused!
Zhu Yuejun was very unhappy after hearing this: "What do you mean? You actually refused my invitation?"
"No, the key point? You only order that kind of food every time at the palace banquet. It's not enough to fill your teeth. You have to sit and watch those women dance. It's really... the general is really not used to it!" Zhao Xuanyi heard this every time. If you don't want to go to a banquet, you'll suffer!
Zhu Yuejun laughed after hearing this, "So these are the things you said. Don't worry. I will entertain you alone. You will lead the army to go out during the Chinese New Year to help me earn face. I will treat you well and I will definitely let you." Eat enough!”
alone? Is this the kind of loneliness you want? Zhao Xuanyi was doubtful, "Really?"
"Of course! Wait for my summons!" Zhu Yuejun said.
Zhao Xuanyi stood up in a hurry, cupped his fists and saluted, "Then we will wait for the good news from the eldest princess!"
"Sit down, but recently I heard that General Li Yukun mobilized 30,000 troops from the border. What is going on?" Zhu Yuejun asked.
Zhao Xuanyi thought about it and estimated that his father-in-law would tell Zhu Yuejun later that telling her was not a leak. "Actually, it is like this. This time he went to the eastern theater to recover five cities, which made the reputation of Qilin Guard spread instantly. His father-in-law saw The Qilin Guards are so powerful in combat, so they plan to let me expand the size of the Qilin Guards!"
After Zhu Yuejun heard this, he understood what Li Yukun was doing. This was to transfer all the elites from the border areas and let Zhao Xuanyi train them to ensure that he had an invincible army under his command!
"I see. It seems that General Zhao's strength will be improved soon! There will be an army called a legend in the future!"
Zhao Xuanyi smiled, "Eldest Princess, please stop teasing me. I don't know if this thing can be done. I have been busy with these five hundred people for more than half a year. I am not afraid of your jokes. When I take back five cities, , the entire Qilin Guard establishment is still immature, and the supplies of weapons and armor are all patchworked here and there!"
"Now let me expand the Qilin Guard's establishment. My father-in-law just stood up and talked without hurting his back. He spoke loudly and said that he didn't have to worry about military pay. What's the result? He didn't even give me a tael of silver. I was forced to do nothing. This I just went outside to suppress the bandits, otherwise my brothers would be starving!"
When Zhu Yuejun heard this, he nodded. To raise a strong army, the military pay must be indispensable. "In this case, I will go back and discuss with the emperor to see if I can give your Qilin Battalion a separate military pay. If you can really By expanding the Qilin Guard, our Ming Dynasty will have an extra shield to resist foreign enemies, and at the same time, we will also have an extra sharp sword to pierce the Huns!"
"The eldest princess is smart, I will thank you first!" Zhao Xuanyi saluted again.
Zhu Yuejun stood up, "If there is nothing else to do, I will go back first. By the way, I will see if the coral that General Zhao gave me looks good."
"Then she must not be as good-looking as the eldest princess!" Zhao Xuanyi said hurriedly.
When Zhu Yuejun heard this, he was in a very good mood, "I just like hearing you tell the truth!"
"Farewell to the eldest princess!" Zhao Xuanyi said with a smile.
After seeing off Zhu Yuejun, Zhao Xuanyi walked out of the teahouse and went home with Shen Wei. Shen Wei came to Zhao Xuanyi and said, "Young Master, this incident did not have serious consequences, right?" After all, Shen Wei also knows the importance of the coral. Sex, there are probably not many of them in the entire Ming Dynasty!
Zhao Xuanyi smiled slightly, "It should be fine. The eldest princess said she will take care of it. By the way, when you go back later, find a few people for me to dig a small secret room for me next to the ice cellar, and then put the wine that was brought back in the small room." In the secret room, if it’s too cold or too hot, the wine from the Western Regions can’t be preserved!”
When Shen Wei heard this, he couldn't help frowning, "This wine from the Western Regions is really troublesome! Storage is so complicated!"
"All good things are delicate!" Zhao Xuanyi said with a smile.
Two people were walking on the street when a carriage came towards them. After seeing Zhao Xuanyi, they stopped instantly, and a special voice came from the car: "General Zhao, please stay!"
When Zhao Xuanyi heard this, he thought, are you calling yourself? When he turned around, he saw a strange carriage that he didn't recognize! There were no guards around the carriage. Whose carriage was this? I have no memory at all, and Zhao Xuanyi, the driver, doesn’t know him either!
Zhao Xuanyi rode to the edge of the carriage and looked inside. The curtain was not raised, so he couldn't see who it was, but the voice was very familiar, very thin, and very sharp! It seemed as if someone had strangled the throat to say it.
When Zhao Xuanyi was hesitating, the curtain of the carriage was lifted, and a middle-aged man's face was revealed from inside. When Zhao Xuanyi saw this face, his heart beat rapidly, his face turned pale, and his breathing was messed up. How could it be him?
I saw that the person sitting in the carriage was none other than King Jingrong, the Duke of Dongchangchang! When Wang Jingrong saw Zhao Xuanyi, a murderous smile appeared on his face, "Isn't this General Zhao? It's been so long!"
