Chapter Five Hundred and Nineteenth Goddess, the uncle will be robbed
Chapter 519: Empress, the son-in-law is going to be stolen
After spring, the ice and snow melted, the road conditions improved, and caravans from all over the country came in, and Xi became lively again.
Many caravans traveling to and from Yu Xidu were surprised to find that after a winter, the road in Xidu changed drastically, from the previous mud and gravel roads to the wide rocky road, with wheels rolling, the road was flat and smooth, and the journey was much faster.
Seeing this scene, a merchant from a caravan that travels back and forth to do business in Xidu can't help but sigh: "Xiguo is really like every day, and it is developing too fast. Last autumn, this section of the road was just a gravel and muddy road, and in a blink of an eye it turned into a solid stone road!"
Another merchant responded: "With the current development speed of Xiguo, it may not take long. There are such good roads in all parts of Xiguo, with roads connected. I am afraid that if I stay in the country for ten years, it will not be as good as Xiguo for a year!"
"Who said it wasn't..."
......
The carriage rolled forward, and the merchant's feelings attracted the attention of a middle-aged man in gorgeous clothes. He was a qi refiner in Jiang Guo, with a fourth-rank cultivation, and was ordered by the nobles to speak out with a mediator.
The reason was that the noble aide came to Xiguo to practice, and he highly praised the king of Xiguo and claimed that he was worthy of friendship. After hearing this, the noble man was also quite moved, so he sent him to Xiguo as a mediator, intending to betroth the Jiang family's legitimate granddaughter to King Xi, and the two countries formed an alliance and made a good relationship.
When the middle-aged man was sent to this mission, he still felt very distressed in his heart.
The State of Jiang was a principality, and the monarch, Duke Jiang, was even more powerful and powerful. He was highly valued by the emperor for a while. However, the State of Xi was just a mere Bo and was also located in a wild land. When the noble daughter married away, she was undoubtedly a grievance.
However, when the middle-aged man came to the Southern Wasteland Realm and heard a lot of rumors about Xiguo, his mentality changed subtly.
Hearing the merchants in the same industry sighed and envied Xiguo, he immediately became more and more curious, walked over and got close to these merchants. After a conversation, he asked:
"Xi Kingdom has only been promoted from a small country to a Bo country in recent years. Its national strength is really great. Paving roads and bridges is a big project. If it is not done well, it will cost the people and cause money. The country is not a country. Is Xi Bo too impatient? I heard you that Xi Kingdom still sends people to work in winter!"
When Shang Jia Jia heard this, he shook his head and retorted: "Hey, you are not from the Southern Wilderness. You don't know how powerful Xiguo is. The people in Xiguo live a good life. Where does it come from the waste of money and money? Xiguo is so amazing. All the people have good management skills, and slaves are more capable than foreign civilians. One is better than two!"
Shang Jia Yi: "That's right! Xiguo is so powerful, we can't say that there are so many. However, I have been doing business with Xiguo in the early years and watched Xiguo step by step from the remote small town of that year to the most prosperous and richest place in the southern wilderness. The ability of Xiaoxi's ruler is definitely the most powerful."
Shang Jia Jia: "This is reasonable. I traveled around the world and traveled to more than a hundred vassal states. However, none of the vassal kings who could compete with King Xi. Well, to be precise, there is not even half of King Xi."
Shang Jia Bing: "Hahahaha, I praise you for your words. People often say that the king of Yun is a talented man, and he is the lord of the revival of Izumo. He is expected to lead Izumo to become the new overlord of the Southern Wilderness. But in my opinion, Xi Guocheng became the new overlord of the Southern Wilderness one step ahead of Izumo! "
"Hahahaha, brother, the high-profile!"
......
The "fishing problem" of middle-aged men attracted the attention of merchants. In just a short moment, more and more merchants participated in the discussion. Merchants are the most knowledgeable type of people in the world. Everyone has the ability to "instruct the country" and criticize current problems.
Even the Majesty of Chu and the Majesty of Izumo Bo, who were not afraid at all, and there was no taboo. However, once the merchants mentioned Xiguo, they all showed respect on their faces. When they mentioned the king Yao Yun, they even used respectful words, called "King Xi", and "Xi Bo".
Such discoveries made the middle-aged man very novel, as if his entire worldview was refreshed. He had never seen merchants from other countries and the people respected the monarchs from other countries so much.
"Why respect King Xi? I admire King Xi for being able to live a good life in the country. I heard that last winter, King Xi broke through to become a third-grade Qi Refiner. Tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk t
"Hahahaha, no one must have said it! But I heard that the king of Chu intends to marry his legitimate daughter to King Xi. After the dowry is ready, he is waiting for someone to talk about peace."
"Hey, Chu Hou has this meaning too? I heard that Mo Kingdom was going to marry the eldest princess to Xi Kingdom. The person who said he was close to Xidu arrived in Xidu as soon as the spring was spring. I don't know if King Xi responded."
"Oh, it's impossible to be so fast. I heard that many clans in the State of Wu and Yue also have this idea..."
"Yes, I heard that the emperor also intends to marry the emperor's daughter to King Xi."
"Who said, is this news true or false... I heard that King Xi was once the emperor's son, and the two are considered to be of equal status. I agree with this marriage!"
......
The middle-aged man listened with interest at first, and his impression of Xiguo and Xibo and Yao Yun changed greatly. Thinking that the noble daughter married Xiguo far away would not be considered a humiliation.
But then, when he heard merchants from all countries discussing the princes and major clans intend to marry Xiguo, his face changed suddenly.
He used to think that his trip would be very smooth. The decline of Xiguo can marry Jiang Guo, who is in full swing. That's not a high-level position. Xibo has no reason to refuse.
But now... King Xi is simply a golden nest, and everyone wants to get involved, and it is very popular.
......
Qingqiu Mountains and Ten Thousand Caves!
"Empress, it's not good, it's not good! My son-in-law is going to be snatched away!"
The peaceful and quiet morning was broken by a sound of howling, disturbing people's dreams.
Liusu, who was lying lazily on the jade bed, woke up. When she heard this, she was still a little dazed: "Son-in-law, what kind of son-in-law!"
A snow-white nine-tailed fox jumped over and jumped to Liusu, turned into a human form, and fell to the ground: "Report to the Empress, my son-in-law... is the king. He is going to get married and marry a wife and concubine!"
"What! Yao Yun is going to get married?" Liusu sat up, and although her face was full of solemn and upright goddess style, her urgent eyes betrayed her true thoughts.
