Chapter 261 The World of Women 3
Chapter 261 The World of Female Sovereigns 3
In a room in the brothel, Gong Shangyu looked down at the three poems in his hand.
"The emperor's affairs in the world were settled, and he won fame both before and after his life. This pity happened in vain!" The man sighed, "The words are good words, but it's a pity."
"I always thought the poems written by the Seventh Princess to me were a little weird before, but now I understand them."
Gong Shangyu placed the paper with the poem on it above the candle and watched as the paper was ignited and burned up.
The candlelight flickered out, making Gong Shangyu's beautiful face look particularly gloomy.
Since the banquet, the Seventh Princess did not dare to appear in front of Yi Zhan for a while, for fear that she would be stripped clean by Yi Zhan.
However, she was not idle and did not write poems. She also had other ideas brought over from modern times. With these novel ideas, she captured the hearts of the other two noble gentlemen.
One of these two men is Qi Jun, the son of the Prime Minister's family, and the other is Chen Yuan, the son of the Minister of Civil Affairs.
They are two of the four young masters in the capital. They are all good at playing music, chess, calligraphy and painting, and they are good-looking. The other two are Yi Zhan and Gong Shangyu.
Although no one wants to marry Yi Zhan, he is really good-looking.
As for Gong Shangyu, being able to become one of the four young masters by virtue of his status as a brothel oiran shows how outstanding he is.
Three of the fourth young masters in the capital were captured by the Seventh Princess.
Just when she was ready to take down the remaining Yi Zhan, the border barbarians launched a war against their country.
In the end, although the border resisted the barbarian attack, it suffered heavy losses. The ministers of the DPRK and China proposed that the two sides make peace.
The barbarian kingdom made a series of demands, and the court felt they were acceptable, so they agreed.
One of them is to let Yi Zhan be the marriage partner and marry him to the barbarian country.
When Jia Jue heard this request, he jumped up.
The main force in repelling the attack of the Man Kingdom this time was General Yi, but the Man Kingdom asked her son to get married. What was their intention?
Isn't it just to humiliate General Yi?
Yi Zhan went to the barbarian country, will he live well?
I'm just afraid that I won't be able to survive.
"Cousin, you can't go."
Yi Zhan smiled bitterly: "The Holy Lord has agreed to the request of the barbarian country. I have to go even if I don't want to go."
Jia Jue was shocked: "The Holy One actually agreed? Doesn't she even care about her aunt's feelings?"
Yi Zhan's wry smile grew even louder: "This is what my mother requested in a letter. Sacrifice myself in exchange for twenty years of stability on the border."
Jia Jue was speechless.
Yi Zhan reached out and touched Jia Jue's head and stood up: "It's time for me to go back."
Jia Huan and Jia Jue watched Yi Zhan gradually walk away, his back disappearing bleakly from their sight, and Jia Jue couldn't help but shed tears.
Jia Huan patted Jia Jue on the shoulder to comfort his younger brother.
Jia Jue choked up and said: "Second brother, why should a man's fate be in the hands of others? Why can a man only marry? Why can't a man go to the battlefield like a woman? Why can't he be an official like a woman? Obviously men are no worse than women.
"
Jia Huan: "The social situation is like this. But it is not impossible to change."
Jia Jue looked at his third brother: What do you mean?
Jia Huan looked at the sky: "Maybe one day, the world will become equal between men and women. Both men and women can go out to work. Women can only have one husband, and men can only have one wife..."
Jia Jue began to fantasize as Jia Huan told her: "Is such a day really going to happen?"
"Yes." Jia Jue said softly but firmly.
At night, everyone else fell asleep, but Yi Zhan didn't sleep. He sat by the window in a daze.
Suddenly, a figure came into his sight, and the next moment, it was at Yi Zhan's side.
Yi Zhan was startled and was about to take action when he realized that the person coming was an acquaintance.
"Ah Huan, why are you here so late?"
The person who came was none other than Jia Huan. He took out a porcelain bottle from his arms and handed it to Yi Zhan: "Cousin, here is a drug that can fake death. You choose the right time to take it."
Yi Zhan stared at the porcelain bottle for a long time, then looked up at Jia Huan: "Ah Huan, why do you have this thing?"
Jia Huan smiled slightly: "Qianzhi Building is mine."
Yi Zhan's eyes widened in shock.
This Qianzhilou is an organization that sells information. As long as you pay enough, you can buy any information you want.
The royal family was very afraid of Qianzhilou and wanted to destroy this organization. However, they didn't even know where the main entrance of Qianzhilou was, let alone the clothes of the owner of Qianzhilou.
Any attempt to destroy Qianzhi Tower will ultimately be in vain.
The imperial court had no choice but to let it go.
Fortunately, Qianzhilou only sold information and was not involved in anything else, so the court reluctantly recognized it.
Now, his cousin told him that his cousin is the owner of the Qianzhi Building where Shenlong has never seen the beginning or end of the building?
Yi Zhan felt that he should slow down.
Jia Huan smiled and waited for Yi Zhan to calm down.
After a while, Yi Zhan put away the porcelain bottle and said to Jia Huan: "Ah Huan, I owe you once."
Jia Huan: "My brothers don't need to see anyone outside."
Yi Zhan: "Since we are brothers, would Ah Huan be willing to take me in as my brother?"
Jia Huan smiled and nodded: "Of course."
Yi Zhan needed a place to stay after he faked his death, and Qianzhi Building was naturally the best place to stay.
Yi Zhan remembered that Jia Huan suddenly appeared next to him just now, his figure was like a ghost, and couldn't help but ask Jia Huan how he did it.
That's naturally because of Qinggong.
This world is a world of low martial arts, and there is no such thing as internal strength cultivation and light gong.
However, Jia Huan's men all practiced internal and light skills, otherwise Qianzhi Tower would not have remained intact under the imperial court's encirclement and suppression.
When the court got the news and went to arrest the people in Qianzhilou, all Jia Huan's men used Qinggong to escape.
Jia Huansui taught Yi Zhan a set of internal skills and a set of light skills, which would make it easier for him to escape later.
As if Yi Zhan had found a treasure, he immediately began to study and practice.
After that, Yi Zhan spent all his time on cultivation and ignored other things.
Everyone thought that Yi Zhan had resigned himself to his fate and was numb. Although they sympathized with him, they did not dare to step forward to disturb him.
Only the Seventh Princess was a little reluctant because she hadn't caught up with Yi Zhan yet.
She decided to win Yi Zhan's heart before Yi Zhan left the capital.
Therefore, the Seventh Princess went to Yi's house every day to report, sending flowers and singing in the shape of a heart with candles, pursuing Yi Zhan in the same way that modern men pursue women.
Yi Zhan was so focused on his cultivation that he had no intention of watching the performance of the Seventh Princess.
The Seventh Princess tried her best to get Yi Zhan to look at her differently.
This made the Seventh Princess frustrated and angry.
"You deserve to be given to the barbarians." The seventh princess complained angrily, and her words reached the ears of Gong Shangyu.
Gong Shangyu's eyes flashed.
He originally thought that the Seventh Princess was different from other women in that she respected men, but now it seems that her essence is no different from other women.
Oh, he really made a mistake back then.
