At this moment, Jiang Zheng felt more comfortable than ever before. The only doubts in his heart were dispelled, and a smile finally appeared on his face.

He had no doubt that all Zhao Hao's answers today were carefully planned.

However, not long after this boy was born, Han Jianfeng became the concierge of Zhenguo Mansion. It can be said that every move of this boy is under his gaze.

These actions were in line with his temperament, especially his attitude towards Ning Wanli and his strong desire for revenge.

You can’t say that this kid has been acting since he was born, right?

The corners of his mouth raised slightly, and he suddenly walked to the desk and spread out a blank imperial edict.

"My eldest companion, what do you think of this woman Ning Wanli?"

Eunuch Cao was stunned for a moment. He was clearly talking about Zhao Hao just now, why did he suddenly mention Ning Wanli?

He was confused in his heart, so he could only express his opinion honestly: "This woman is indeed extremely smart, but it would be a bit reckless to go directly to the Duke of Zhenguo in such a way."

Jiang Zheng smiled and shook his head: "It is indeed a bit reckless, but you don't know the internal situation of Qi State. Now her situation in Qi State is worrying. Although she has avoided the fate of marriage this time, if she goes back empty-handed, she will still just

Can sit still and wait for death.

That’s why she tried her best to show her intelligence and ambition to me and Duke Zhen Guo. Although it seemed a bit reckless and showy, it was a last resort."

Eunuch Cao heard what Jiang Zheng meant: "Your Majesty, do you want to help her?"

Jiang Zheng did not answer immediately, but took out the jade pendant with the word "Wan Li" engraved on it from his arms, thought for a moment, and then nodded gently: "This jade is Lantian Jade from Han Qi, and it is the national jade of Qi State.

, extremely rare, each piece should be recorded in the record, and it can only be held after being rewarded by the Emperor of Qi.

It is Ning Wanli's ambition to win over Li, and it is also the expectation of the Emperor of Qi. It seems that he also intends to make this woman his crown prince. In the current situation, if Huang Guo wants to forge ahead, it will inevitably have to rely on the financial resources of Qi.

You can't let an ignorant person sit here. Since this woman has already shown her resourcefulness, she might as well do this favor!"

Having said that, the pen moves away from the dragon and the snake.

After handing the imperial edict to Eunuch Cao, Jiang Zheng smiled slightly: "Go! After the edict is announced, go to the gate of the Zhenguo Mansion and call that bastard out for questioning. This farce should be over."

"yes!"

Eunuch Cao bowed respectfully and left Qianqing Palace with small steps.

…

Embassy of Qi State.

"Ning Wanli accepts the order!"

Seeing Eunuch Cao arriving, Ning Wanli's heart skipped a beat.

I had just returned from the Zhenguo Mansion, and Eunuch Cao had arrived. Could it be that my move had offended the Emperor of the Wild Kingdom?

Probably not.

Now that the relationship between Huang and Qi is good, even if he acts recklessly, he will not be punished.

Then why did Eunuch Cao come here this time?

With doubts, Ning Wanli knelt down to receive the order: "Foreign minister, receive the order!"

Eunuch Cao took a deep look at her, and then said: "The emperor has decreed that there is a daughter from Qi State, who is immortal and beautiful, and extremely talented. I can't get married. I think about the clouds, clothes, flowers and appearance. Wen Wanli's mother's family, Li

The silk and gouache in his name are both exquisite, and he is specially given to Yunshang Yulou and the Li family. Don’t forget the friendship between Huang and Qi. I appreciate this!"

"Long live the Emperor, long live the Emperor!"

Ning Wanli received the imperial edict, a ray of joy lingering in her heart.

She understood that Eunuch Cao came to say good things, but what was Yunshang Yulou doing?

She couldn't wait to ask: "Father, this Yun Shang..."

Eunuch Cao smiled and said: "The Yunshang Jade Tower is opposite the Zhenguo Mansion and will be completed soon. The emperor also hopes that the people of Huangguo can buy Li's silk and rouge gouache inside!"

Ning Wanli was immediately overjoyed. Although Huang Qi had formed an alliance and had many exchanges with each other, the taxation during the trade process was very heavy, and it was impossible for Qi merchants to open a branch in Huang.

But now that the emperor has directly opened a Yunshang Yulou in Kyoto, the Li family will definitely gain an absolute advantage compared to other Qi merchants.

And because of the improved status of his mother's clan, he will regain the right to speak in Qi State!

If the Li family had such a status before, they would not have been forced to come to the desert country to get married.

This is a real benefit. It allows me to have the capital to speak, but it will not make other royal family members feel unhappy.

She immediately raised her hands to Eunuch Cao: "Eunuch Cao, on behalf of the foreign ministers, I would like to thank the emperor!"

Eunuch Cao covered his mouth and laughed: "The princess has brought so much benefit to the Huang country, how can we in the Huang country be petty? It's getting late, and I have to go to the Zhenguo Mansion, so I won't bother you!"

After that, he left the Qi embassy with a smile.

Ning Wanli stood there silently for a long time, but she was trying to figure out what Jiang Zheng meant.

Although it was a reward for himself, the imperial edict was not about the unfulfilled marriage. It also specifically mentioned "the clouds are like the clothes and the flowers are like the face", and then reminded him of what happened when he visited the Zhenguo Mansion and was discovered by the emperor's men.

So the meaning of this imperial edict is...

I like you because Zhao Hao likes you. Don't speculate on my relationship with Duke Zhen. Anyway, it's much better than you guessed.

The relationship between the emperor and the Duke of Zhen is really delicate!

Ning Wanli shook her head. It was better not to consider this. The purpose of coming to the Wild Country this time had been achieved, so there was no need to interfere with the internal affairs of the Wild Country.

It's just that the Yunshang Jade Pavilion is built opposite the Zhenguo Mansion, so I don't know what Jiang Zheng has in mind.

…

Outside Zhenguo Mansion.

After Eunuch Cao arrived, he did not enter the mansion for a long time. After ordering someone to go in and report, he stood on the carriage and waited for Zhao Hao to come out. After a while, he attracted a large number of people.

After all, Eunuch Cao is the emperor's servant, so they don't dare to be presumptuous, they only dare to watch from a distance.

On normal days, they would not be interested at all when Eunuch Cao went to announce his decree.

But at this sensitive time, Eunuch Cao specially came to the Zhenguo Mansion, specifying that he had a relationship with Zhao Hao, and it was very likely that he was urging Zhao Hao to reply.

Wouldn't that mean...

Is it closing?

Therefore, all gambling dogs are eagerly looking forward to it. Although this market has not been open for a few days from beginning to end, rumors and gossip are flying all over the sky during these days, and brothels and gambling houses are blooming, which makes everyone obsessed.

Coupled with the influx of countless Qi businessmen, the gambling pool has become several times larger than before, and it seems to be close to saturation.

Everyone wants to see the outcome of this amazing gamble.

Under the gaze of everyone, the door of the Zhenguo Mansion opened, and a carefree young man walked out.

It was none other than Zhao Hao.

I saw him jumping on the carriage and hugging Eunuch Cao's neck affectionately: "Old Cao, why don't you go in and sit for a while? You are standing outside, making it seem like our old Zhao family doesn't understand any etiquette! Let's go, let's go, let's go

, come with me in and feed the horses together!"

Eunuch Cao smiled and said: "No need, Master Hao! I am here with the emperor's mission this time!"

Zhao Hao smiled and said: "Oh? What mission?"

Eunuch Cao's voice rose a notch: "The seven-day period is coming soon. Your Majesty asked your servant to ask you, have you chosen which princess you want?"

Zhao Hao curled his lips, thinking that this emperor was really stingy.

I originally thought about delaying it for a few more days and relying on the servants of the Meng and Zhou mansions to make more money, but I was interrupted in advance.

If you are unhappy, you will definitely be unhappy.

But Eunuch Cao has been forced to this place, so it seems inappropriate to delay in not answering.

But just giving it away for free is not Zhao Hao’s style.

After thinking for a moment, he raised his voice and said:

"Of course it's Princess Anyang! Old Cao, go back and tell the emperor's grandfather quickly, don't delay any more!"

still?

Eunuch Cao was stunned for a moment, you never said that before?

He suddenly felt that something was not right, and then the whispers of passers-by appeared in his keen perception.

"Who is Princess Anyang? Why don't you remember her at all?"

"still?"

"Could it be that Zhao Hao has decided on the candidate before? Then why does it take so long?"

"I understand! This bet is run by the Emperor. I asked why all kinds of rumors are flying around, but it turns out that it was the Emperor who started it!"

"I just said, how can a dude like Zhao Hao have such wisdom?"

"Princess Anyang..."

Eunuch Cao's face suddenly froze.

He also didn't expect that Zhao Hao would be so angry that he would even dare to cheat the emperor after being cut off from his financial resources.

Are you really not afraid of being beheaded?
