Chapter 96: Husband, do you have any surprises that I don’t know about?
Next two days.

Bai Yuji was quite obedient and just stayed at home with Qin Muye.

But she also became more careful.

If possible, stay away from the bedroom. Otherwise, if they look at each other, the atmosphere will easily become ambiguous, and then Qin Muye will want to do something harmful to his body.

Seeing that Qin Muye seemed to be interested in witchcraft and poisons recently, which happened to be the things she was good at, she took the opportunity to tell him a lot about witchcraft and poisons, and even took him to Baicaofang to identify them one by one.

Just to consume his vigorous energy.

Qin Muye saw through her little thoughts, but did not expose them.

because……

Learn!

Cool!
He just felt that his learning ability and the sharpness of his five senses had reached a skyrocketing level.

Do not!
It can't be said to be the five senses.

Because he can also identify some colorless and odorless medicines.

Odorless only means that the medicinal properties do not dissipate. Changes will still occur in the body after smelling it.

Even the slightest change can be captured by him keenly.

He now understood why Li Xingluo performed so amazingly in the secret realm. Not only did he observe all the details in the chaos, but his nose also used the same method as a spectral analyzer to identify all suspicious drugs.

Anyway, after two days, he had asked about all the tricky medicines and was confident that he would never be drugged again in his life.

soon.

The first diplomatic negotiations after the imperial examination of all races began.

Li Xingluo, who had not been seen for two days, also put on Wu Lu's vest and stood at the gate of Zhennan Mansion again.

Qin Muye invited her to the carriage and joked, "You haven't shown up in the past two days. Are you so busy with cultivation?"

Li Xingluo's face froze for a moment.

As a princess, she has always been very busy.

But it’s not to the point where he doesn’t even have time to change his identity and meet Qin Muye.

But in the past two days, whenever she closed her eyes, she would think of the unbearable scenes involving Qin Muye.

Sometimes it is the perspective of an observer, sometimes it is the perspective of an eyewitness.

With so many distracting thoughts in my mind, how could I dare to see Qin Muye?

Fortunately, after two days of meditation, she finally completely suppressed all the desires aroused by the totem source energy.

She smiled and explained half-truthfully, "I've been practicing a little too eagerly for quick results lately, and I've been showing some signs of going astray, so I haven't dared to go out."

"Oh……"

Qin Muye nodded thoughtfully, but didn't say much.

After all, he still has some pure love.

At least for now, he has no intention of teasing Li Xingluo.

After everyone was seated, he signaled to the coachman that they could set off.

Soon, the three of them arrived at the Honglu Temple.

Because of the promotion, the officials along the way became more respectful.

Look at the sky.

The agreed time has arrived.

But Qin Muye did not intend to go directly into the meeting hall. Instead, he took them to the second floor of the Yating not far from the meeting hall and sat for a while.

After all, the scenery of Honglu Temple is still good.

In order to take care of those evil officials, the entire Honglu Temple has the style of a southern Xinjiang jungle, and even a magic circle was specially set up to maintain the temperature and humidity, so that people have to take off their cotton clothes every time they come here.

After sitting down.

Qin Muye was just about to tell Bai Yuji a few words.

But suddenly I realized that I could faintly hear the sound of reading coming from somewhere.

Turning around, I saw a few young men sitting on the ground next to a rockery in the distance, holding the book in both hands and reciting with their heads up. They could not recite any more after a few sentences, then looked down for a few times, and then looked up again to recite a few more sentences.

Repeatedly.

Hard work and inefficient.

Seeing this scene, Qin Muye and Bai Yuji looked at each other and couldn't help laughing.

It’s not that they are of low quality.

Instead, he found a familiar face among this group of people... or rather, among these evil officials.

Hu Huan!

At this moment, Hu Huan was no longer as arrogant and domineering as before.

Even its body shape has shrunk, and it looks like a pale, thin, weak and introverted little milk snake.

Qin Muye asked curiously, "Aren't they studying in the Demon School? Why are they here?"

Li Xingluo smiled and said, "I heard this from the princess. She said that they couldn't learn anything in the demon school. His Majesty thought that this might be because they were not familiar with the environment, so he moved the demon school to the Honglu Temple."

"hiss……"

Qin Muye took a deep breath and said, "The Honglu Temple is full of acquaintances. What's the difference between this and Ling Chi and the others?"

Li Xingluo also looked gloating: "That's right! After His Majesty proposed this idea, they opposed it fiercely and almost knelt down to beg. His Majesty said that as long as they memorized the Four Books and Five Classics, he would let them go back to their original places."

Qin Muye: “…”

He has to be the emperor.

This move is too cruel.

He lay on the railing and continued to spy on Hu Huan from a distance.

It happened that Zheng Wang and his gang passed by the rockery, and their eyes subconsciously moved towards Hu Huan and his gang.

Just a casual glance.

Hu Huan immediately reacted, rolled up the book and pointed at them fiercely: "What are you looking at? What are you looking at? You just like looking at others, right?"

The voice was shrill and hoarse.

Like an old sister-in-law.

Niu Pingtian couldn't stand it anymore and retorted, "Just look, just look, just look! You recite the book so well, why don't you let people see it?"

Hu Huan was furious. He put his hands on his waist like an old sister-in-law and said passionately: "Niu Pingtian, how dare you say that to me? I have fallen to this point because of you. It would be fine if you didn't kneel down and apologize, but you are still here making sarcastic remarks?"

Niu Pingtian stiffened his neck: "It's all because of you..."

Qingqiu Mei'er noticed something was wrong and quickly reminded him in a low voice: "Niuniu, don't provoke him. Yayu may not have left Kyoto yet."

Niu Pingtian was immediately discouraged, but he still spat out in a cowardly manner: "What bad luck!"

Then, he left quickly with Zheng Wang and the others.

Hu Huan was still cursing from behind: "Na na na na! Are you feeling guilty? Ugh!"

"Pooh!"

"Pooh!"

"Pooh!"

The other evil officials also started to curse, and the old sister-in-law's voice rose one after another.

Hu Huan was so angry that he chopped his feet and said angrily: "Just now you didn't dare to scold me, but now you are scolding me fiercely!"

An old lady with cat ears laughed and said, "Brother Hu Huan, we don't have the same background as you..."

"Grass!"

The other old lady with a bird's mouth threw the book to the ground and cursed: "I won't read this damn book anymore!"

The cat-eared old lady advised: "Brother Hu Huan, you have to study hard. If you don't study, you will never get your own demon pill in your life."

The old lady with the bird's mouth panted for a long time, but finally picked up the book, cursing all the time: "At the beginning, they promised us nice things, saying that coming to Daqian would be more noble than the aristocratic families, but when we got into trouble, not only did they not help, they also added insult to injury. They are really a bunch of beasts, and they brainwashed us every day that we are a family. My family is their mother's spiral valley!"

The cat-eared old lady whispered, "Brother, what you said is a bit self-deprecating. Who among us is not a beast?"

The old lady with the bird's beak snorted, "I am a bird, not an animal."

Cat-eared sister-in-law: “???”

In the elegant pavilion.

Qin Muye was so amused: "How come these evil officials have all become old sisters-in-law? They are so resentful!"

Li Xingluo explained with a smile: "The essence of the demon cultivators is all condensed in the demon pill. If the demon pill is dug out, not only will their cultivation be greatly reduced, but the yin and yang in their bodies will also become weak and disordered. Just like a man, his personality will definitely be distorted over time."

Qin Muye: "Uh..."

Bai Yuji: "Uh..."

Li Xingluo realized that his words had hurt someone by mistake, and quickly said, "Of course, the lord has a broad mind and a strong will, and with the help of the mistress, he is already a real man who stands tall and proud. Naturally, he cannot be lumped together with them."

Qin Muye rubbed his head and said, "It's almost time, let's go into the hall!"

Having said that, he strode towards the council hall.

Li Xingluo reflected secretly. She didn't know why, but whenever she changed into the identity of Wu Lu, she couldn't control herself and wanted to let go. She seemed not very stable.

But come to think of it, this seems to be a good idea.

If I act too calm, it would be bad if Qin Muye guessed my true identity.

She shook her head.

Suddenly I remembered the scene of that day.

Qin Muye now seems to be a real man who "stands tall and upright"!

Why am I thinking of this again?

She shook her head and quickly followed.

……

Inside the meeting hall.

The envoys from various countries are already waiting impatiently.

Ever since the imperial examination for all races came to an end, they have been in an extremely tormenting state.

During these three days, many people went to Zhenguo Mansion to find Qin Muye privately, wanting to discuss the share of the trade.

But without exception, all were turned away by the doorman.

We finally made it to today, but Qin Muye was late again!
Just when everyone's anger could no longer be suppressed.

Finally, footsteps were heard from the direction of the gate.

Following the sound, they saw Qin Muye smiling and bowing to everyone: "Sorry for waiting, I'm late! Actually, I didn't want to be late, but I have too much work to do..."

The envoys looked at each other and suppressed their anger.

They all felt a little strange.

Has this person changed his gender?

He never mentioned being late before, but today he actually told me the reason.

Is this equivalent to a disguised apology?

Who would have guessed.

Qin Muye changed the subject: "But I finished my official duties yesterday, and I arrived at the Honglu Temple early today. Logically, I shouldn't be late, but I thought about it. I won the top prize in the Ten Thousand Races Imperial Examination, and my position as Shaoqing was also formalized. I would be sorry for myself if I didn't show off, so I deliberately left you alone for a while."

Lan Li: “???”

Luo Cheng: “???”

Xu Yuyao: “???”

Wamuha: “???”

All envoys: “???”

They really couldn't suppress the urge to hit people.

But at this time, Qin Muye and the other two had already taken their seats, and one of them...

Ulu!?!?!

They all stopped talking immediately. After all, they had all seen Wu Lu's horrific behavior in the past few days.

He is at the peak of the fourth rank at the age of less than 25, and will surely be a killing god in the future.

Not even later.

Right now in the meeting hall, Wu Lu can beat anyone he wants.

Just with the Blade Storm that he had released before, there were not many people present who could block it.

Their anger was stopped twice when they were about to explode, and their faces became uglier and uglier. They thought they had already adapted to Qin Muye, the crazy young minister.

But unexpectedly, I still overestimated his qualities.

Only Luo Cheng could remain calm. He asked with a smile, "As long as Qin Shaoqing can come, it will be fine. We have been looking forward to it for a long time. The issue of the mutual market share has been pending for a long time. Qin Shaoqing has been busy with official duties for so many days, so I believe he has already come up with an idea!"

Qin Muye nodded: "Indeed, I have an idea!"

talking.

He clapped his hands twice.

The next moment, the clerks from the Honglu Temple each held a stack of books and placed them in front of the envoys.

Everyone opened their own booklets, which contained the grain, cloth, elixirs and other resources that Qian Kingdom planned to trade with other countries, as well as the spices, cordyceps and minerals that it planned to purchase.

The variety is quite complete.

But the quantity is a bit...

Lan Li was somewhat dissatisfied: "Qin Shaoqing! Since your country has decided to trade, shouldn't you show some sincerity? Isn't this a small transaction volume too..."

Qin Muye interrupted with a smile: "Envoy Lan, I must remind you that the mutual trade was not proposed by Daqian. We just saw that our friendly countries were living in too tight a situation, so we agreed to the mutual trade in order to promote peace and friendly exchanges."

Lan Li was very angry: "You..."

Qin Muye interrupted again: "In addition! What is written in your booklet is only the basic transaction volume proposed by Daqian. There is also a flexible transaction volume of almost the same amount that has not been written down yet."

Luo Cheng was originally very dissatisfied with the contents of the booklet.

When I heard this, my eyes immediately lit up: "What is flexible trading volume? And how should it be traded?"

Qin Muye did not answer, but snapped his fingers.

next moment.

A map appeared in everyone's hands.

After opening the map, they were quickly attracted by two places on it.

This is a map of Qian Country and its surroundings, but there are two differences. There are two more small cities near the north and south borders of Qian Country. These two cities happen to be within the radiation range of the important border towns of Qian Country.

Qin Muye said calmly: "A few days ago, His Majesty has sent craftsmen to the border to build a city. If there are no accidents, it will be completed in three months. All future transactions will be carried out in these two cities.

The so-called flexible trading volume means that every season, Daqian will list a new trading list based on domestic demand, and everyone present will bid for it. If the bid is successful, you can get the trading share of the season.

Also!

Until the candidate to host the bidding is decided, this official will take over the duties temporarily, and two puppets will be sent to the border permanently.

We are all old acquaintances, so communication is more convenient.”

Everyone: "???"

This, is this too overbearing?
The newly built city was completely destroyed by the swords of the Qian army.

There is no doubt that entry and exit of the city must be subject to the supervision of Qian State.

Because the basic transaction volume in each country is low, everyone has to rush to bid.

Conflicts in the process are inevitable, and we even have to coax the official in charge of the bidding in Qian State, that is, Qin Muye.

overbearing!

Shame!

Except for Qian State, no other party has autonomy.

Who came up with this clause?
Luo Cheng's face was not looking good. He originally thought that Baiyue could get a relatively generous share by relying on Bai Yuji's relationship. At worst, he could still benefit from the flexible trading volume.

result……

In fact, as long as Bai Yuji continues to stay with Qin Muye, Baiyue's bidding will definitely be easier.

But the change in share this quarter has created too much uncertainty.

If others spend a lot of money to lick Qin Muye, will Baiyue want to lick him?

He said in a deep voice: "Qin Shaoqing, I think this plan is inappropriate and we need to discuss it in detail..."

Qin Muye interrupted directly with a wave of his hand: "No need to discuss in detail, this is a notice, not a discussion!"

Luo Cheng: “???”

Other envoys: “???”

Bai Yuji also widened her eyes and looked at Qin Muye in disbelief.

Of course, she knew how much power Qin Muye would have if this was finally decided.

At that time, as long as I stay by his side safely, I can gain endless benefits for my people.

even……

You should know that the southern one of the two cities is quite close to the homeland of Nanzhao.

This……

She thought of what Qin Muye said a few days ago when he wanted to seek the greatest benefits for the remnants of Nanzhao.

At that time, she didn't know how big the largest one was.

Now it seems.

It is indeed big.

It was so big that I could hardly bear it.

So pleasantly surprised.

Luo Cheng was so angry that his face turned blue: "Qin Shaoqing! This matter..."

Qin Muye interrupted him with a wave of his hand and stood up. "If anyone is not happy, they can just quit. Daqian will never stop them. But you all saw that the basic orders are in short supply. If you give up your own orders, you will suffer less grievances, others will make more money, and Daqian will feel less guilty towards its allies. It's a win-win for everyone! I am not feeling well, so I'll take my leave first. Please consider it carefully."

Say it.

He grabbed Bai Yuji's hand and strode away, with Li Xingluo following closely behind.

Leaving behind everyone with ugly faces.

The clerks of the Honglu Temple turned a blind eye to their anger and placed the treaty, which was stamped with the official seal of the Honglu Temple of Qian State, in front of the envoys with an expressionless face.

Then they all retreated.

The attitude is already obvious.

Sign it if you want!

The envoys were in a stalemate; no one had expected the situation to deteriorate to this extent.

Before coming, they were still thinking about mediating.

As a result, they turned around and were stunned by the iron fist of the so-called imperial examination which was actually a military exercise.

I contacted the Great Sage Temple, but received no response at all.

The Qian Kingdom also put forward the most overbearing terms when all other countries were in the most passive situation.

Isn't this like begging on your knees?

Humiliation and anger made them want to tear up this so-called covenant immediately.

But if it is torn off, this share will definitely be divided up crazily by other companies.

After years of war and blockade, people in all countries are exhausted.

If it is because of so-called humiliation, then abandon the covenant.

Forget about defeating Daqian and dividing the Central Plains in the future. Once the neighboring countries recover their national strength, I'm afraid they will be the first to attack me.

at last.

"Wolf Dang!"

An envoy cursed and signed the treaty on the spot.

With someone taking the lead, others followed suit.

They all saw that Qian Guo’s attitude was very tough.

And... have strong capital!
Those evil officials may still have the idea of ​​cooperating with the various states, but they will definitely not provide any help in trade.

……

Qin Muye was in a good mood. He held Bai Yuji's little hand and hummed a tune as he walked.

He suddenly remembered something and turned to look at Li Xingluo: "After such a good fight, you don't even praise your lord for his domineering and shrewdness!"

Li Xingluo was very supportive and immediately clapped his hands in praise: "My Lord, you are too domineering, a real man should be like this! Moreover, once this conspiracy is used, it will definitely alienate the relations between the states and resolve their evil intentions of jointly attacking Qian without bloodshed."

Bai Yuji pursed her lips and smiled, just looking at Qin Muye sideways.

Li Xingluo also found it funny, thinking that Qin Muye still had the youthful mentality of liking to show off.

It was clear that most of the plan just now came from the guidance of his father.

When she met Li Hong these days, she often heard him mention Qin Muye and the trade fair. Naturally, she knew that these were all taught by Li Hong himself.

Of course, Li Hong also said that Qin Muye is quite talented in this area and can basically understand everything at once.

They can even draw inferences about other situations.

For example, the idea of ​​freeing up flexible trading volume for bidding by officials of the Qian State was Qin Muye's own idea. He also said that since he wanted to sow discord, he might as well carry it out to the end.

Li Hong was quite surprised at that time and praised Qin Muye a few words.

Qin Muye was also good at coaxing people, saying that it was all thanks to the teacher.

Li Hong laughed and scolded him for being better at flattering than at doing real work.

Qin Muye was not ashamed but proud of it. He smiled and said something that she still remembers vividly: "It's not that I took a good picture of it, it's obviously that you pouted well."

The vulgarity of his words made Li Hong so angry that he kicked him out of Yongqing Palace.

But when I mentioned this to myself later, I couldn't help laughing.

It was clear to her then.

My father likes this boy very much.

The son of the Marquis of Zhennan had the same personality as Qin Yanying: he was easygoing and casual about small matters, but never lost his integrity in big matters.

Although his words and actions were often inappropriate, it just showed that in his heart he already regarded the emperor as his elder.

It's really good.

Li Xingluo also likes chatting with Qin Muye.

Just look at him and Bai Yuji snuggling together and smiling at each other, their eyes are about to become tearful.

She was suddenly a little scared. When did these two people suddenly get entangled with each other again?

The impact of that scene on her was really too strong.

She said quickly, "My Lord! I have benefited a lot from following you today. I need to think about it carefully. You and the mistress should go back first. I will be there in the evening."

"it is good!"

"call……"

Li Xingluo heaved a sigh of relief. He calculated that there were still three hours left until evening. That should be enough time for them to finish the job, right?
Escape first!

Qin Muye watched her leave and then pulled Bai Yuji into the carriage.

Just got on the carriage.

The beauty sat directly on his lap.

He held her face and sucked it.

After sucking it, Bai Yuji realized that something was wrong.

She quickly sat next to him and said "thank you" with a red face.

Qin Muye laughed and said, "I thought you would blame me for embarrassing your sister and brother-in-law!"

"Why blame?"

Bai Yuji shook his head: "Although we are related by blood, and they have helped my people a lot, but after all, they are considering the interests of Baiyue, and it is impossible for them to think from the perspective of our people.

You were right to ask me not to contact them these days. If I contact them, it will only have a bad impact on you, and it will also be bad for the Nanzhao people."

Qin Muye smiled with relief.

My wife is not stupid either.

He thought for a moment and asked, "However, what happened today has offended them after all. Your people are still in Baiyue territory. Have you thought about how to deal with them?"

Bai Yuji pursed her lips and said, "This is indeed a bit troublesome, but I don't want to think about it now."

"So what are you going to consider?"

"you guess!"

Bai Yuji smiled in her beautiful eyes and slowly put her hair up.

Qin Muye: “!!!”
