Li Jing was stunned when he saw this scene. What is going on?
Your Highness went on a trip to the Southern Territory. Are you giving away the beauties of Loulan City to Lian Wo?
No, only one of these people is a woman from Loulan. The others are not from Loulan, but look like women from the Central Plains.
"Your Highness, these women are..."
Li Ke knew that his father-in-law would definitely ask. No one could accept the sudden appearance of so many women!
Now even I can't accept it. If it weren't for money and the power of their family, I wouldn't betray my sex.
"Father-in-law, these women are arranged by the hidden family in the Central Plains to serve this king."
Li Jing counted three women from the Central Plains and one woman from Loulan from the Western Regions. Each of them had stunning looks. Even in the entire Tang Dynasty, they were definitely outstanding.
Compared to his own daughter, her beauty is even on a higher level.
Li Jing secretly sighed, blaming his daughter for not living up to her expectations. If she lived up to her expectations, the position of the princess would never be shaken. Even if the prince becomes the prince in the future, she will definitely be the princess, and even her mother-in-law in the world. of queen.
But now, his daughter has not given birth to a son, and the prince is surrounded by so many beauties. If someone gets pregnant and gives birth to a son, his daughter will be out of luck.
At this time, four more women came up from behind, also with extraordinary looks.
"Ah, this...what else?"
Li Jing couldn't help but glance at Li Ke again, thinking, what does this kid want to do?
Have you already started preparing for the harem?
Li Jing secretly cried out in his heart, daughter, your husband is looking for many women behind your back, and your father is powerless and unable to stop him!
From now on, it all depends on your ability. If you can seduce these women, you will still be the princess. If you cannot succumb to them, then the rest of your life may be very miserable.
"Your Highness, the Tang Dynasty and the Western Turks are about to start a life-and-death battle. If you bring so many women to this army, I'm afraid it will have a bad impact on you."
"How about sending it to Yumen Pass or Liangzhou, and when the war is over, you can take it directly back to Prince Qin's Mansion?"
Li Ke smiled and said, "What's wrong with women? Women can hold up half the sky. Don't worry, father-in-law, my son-in-law will never treat them as women."
"When fighting, they will go into battle. They are all masters."
"Ah this..."
When Li Ke saw Li Jing, he wanted to persuade him. In fact, he was helpless. He had finally collected money and people from others and sent them back. How could the experts around him help me? Only their young lady was here. Only then can they fight to the death to kill the enemy. biquge.biz
"Father-in-law, come with your son-in-law. My son-in-law has something to say."
Li Jing was confused. Is His Highness trying to find excuses for his philandering?
"Father-in-law, do you know how much these people are worth?"
Li Jing turned around and took a look, how much is it worth? Could it be that your boy spent a huge sum of money to buy them?
What a prodigal!
You are such a prodigal!
My daughter works so hard, getting up early and working hard every day, to make money for you in Chang'an City. How about you, have you started buying women?
"Your Highness, how much did you... spend on these women?"
Li Ke was stunned for a moment, and his face turned dark instantly: "Father-in-law, you are too arrogant. You made her family pay and send their daughters to be spies with me."
"This king took these women and stole seven million taels of gold from their families, which is enough to pay the taxes of the Tang Dynasty for several years."
"Also, have you seen those strong men? They are all tricked by me. They want to contribute to our Tang Dynasty. This time, if we want to kill the masters of the Ashina family, we will first send them as cannon fodder."
"How can I be that kind of lecherous person? All this is for the sake of my country and the country of the Tang Dynasty!"
Li Jing was also shocked. More than seven million taels of gold and seventy or eighty masters were obtained by the prince.
If he were thirty years younger, he would definitely be able to sacrifice himself for the Tang Dynasty like the prince.
"Don't worry, father-in-law, I only have Shu Wan in my heart, and only Shu Wan is my heart's content."
"Your Majesty is wise!" Li Jing finally grinned after hearing this.
Everyone finally entered the city.
Li Jing followed beside him and said with a smile: "I didn't expect that Yiwu City would be built so quickly. It's just that, Your Majesty, you asked people to build so many houses, and there aren't many people left in Yiwu."
"First they were massacred by King Gaochang, and then they were harmed by the Western Region Allied Forces. Yiwu originally only had about 30,000 subjects, but now there is not even one out of ten."
Li Ke smiled and said: "The thing we are least afraid of is people. This time I went to the Southern Territory and found the Loulan clan. I have already discussed it with Queen Loulan. They will submit to the Tang Dynasty and become the people of the Tang Dynasty. It will be convenient soon." Bring your tribe to move to Yiwu City to live here."
"And the houses in Yiwu City are not all residential areas, there are also commercial areas!"
"After all, Yiwu will be the only way for the Tang Dynasty to lead to the Western Regions in the future. Business travelers who have passed by will definitely stop here. This place will definitely develop into a prosperous place."
Following Li Jing, everyone was walking on the street. At this moment, slaves and craftsmen continued to work overtime on the construction.
But looking at the two- and three-story buildings rising from the ground, as well as the wide streets and smooth roads, these eldest ladies from the hidden families in the Central Plains were surprised.
In their impression, places like the Western Regions were inhabited by barbarians, who lived with livestock in tents or mud houses, and the ground was littered with cow and sheep excrement.
But today they arrived in the Western Region. The northwest was extremely desolate, but when they saw this huge city and the things in the city, they were still shocked.
After all, they have never even been to Chang'an. At most, they have been to some small counties, and then they have been living in a hidden family. Naturally, there are no large buildings and no worldly prosperity in the hidden family.
Tuo Luojia's face was full of joy. He looked at the tall and spacious houses and the wide streets. He was extremely satisfied. Is this the city that the prince has prepared for the Loulan clan?
This is really great, much better than their Loulan City, and from now on, the Loulan people can live openly on this land, no longer afraid of war, because they have the support of the Tang Dynasty behind them.
After Li Ke and others arrived at the post station, they stopped there. The post station was now under the management of the postal service.
It is considered a state-owned enterprise. When the employees heard that a high-ranking official had come from above, the arrangements were very appropriate and a place for the women to take a bath was arranged. This was extremely considerate.
Li Ke watched it in the post station. It was built according to his regulations. The post station was divided into two parts, one for military use and the other for civilian use.
Military inns must be kept vigilant at all times and cannot be probed by anyone. They can only be used by messengers coming and going. Everything is free.
The civilian inns are open to the outside world. Whether they are officials, sergeants, traffickers or foot soldiers, they can spend money at the civilian inns. Of course, consumption here is only slightly cheaper than other places, but it will definitely not be free.
An inn is actually very big, including accommodation, meals, purchasing goods, free rest, etc.!
To put it bluntly, it is equivalent to the high-speed service station of later generations.
After Li Ke and Li Jing had a meal together, they walked on the road outside the inn and learned about the current situation in the Western Regions from Li Jing.
The seven or eight women first washed themselves, then put on their favorite clothes. After having had enough wine and food, they were ready to hook up with Li Ke tonight.
