Chapter 736 As expected, she is Concubine Qi. She is indeed not an ordinary person!
All of these women were beautiful, and they all learned the skills of how to serve men. However, Gao Yao only went to the post station occasionally to indulge himself.
For those women who were kept in the post station by Gao Yao alone, although he gave them a lot of money, he also set a clear rule - they were absolutely not allowed to get pregnant. This rule undoubtedly degraded the status of these women to just tools for Gao Yao's entertainment. They were just Gao Yao's playthings in his spare time and were not allowed to do anything beyond the limit.
Not only that, Gao Yao didn't go to the post station very often. Sometimes he would go two or three times a month, and sometimes even once a month was considered very good. When he was away on a campaign, these women didn't even have the chance to see him.
When these women's time at the post station was over, they were not abandoned. Instead, they were sent to other cities to start their lives anew. Although they would bear the reputation of being widows, the money they had in their hands was enough for them to live a rich life. They were fully capable of becoming rich girls, or choosing to remarry. Even if they were unable to marry in the end, with Gao Yao's wealth, supporting a few more women would be nothing more than a drop in the bucket for him.
However, the Concubine Qi in front of him was very different from other women. Although her appearance was not as stunning as that of Lu Su and others, she was definitely elegant and refined. More importantly, the charm she exuded was something that no other woman Gao Yao had ever met had. This unique temperament seemed to be innate, and everyone had their own unique charm.
At this moment, Qi Ji raised her head slightly, and her peach-like eyes gently swept across Gao Yao. Just by looking at each other for a moment, Gao Yao felt an indescribable heat in his heart, as if a flame was burning in his abdomen. It was obviously just a simple glance, but it made people feel an irresistible charm.
Gao Yao suddenly realized why Concubine Qi could make Liu Bang so obsessed and reluctant to leave. Just this one glance was not comparable to that of an ordinary woman. At this time, Kuai Tong was also secretly observing Gao Yao's reaction. When he saw that Gao Yao's eyes were completely attracted by Concubine Qi and he was staring at her intently, Kuai Tong was secretly delighted in his heart, knowing that this gift was just right.
"Prime Minister, this girl is the sworn sister of the King of Wei. She is specially given to you in the hope that we can be together forever!" Kuai Tong said with a flattering face.
Gao Yao raised his lips slightly, revealing a faint smile, but that smile revealed a hint of disdain. He thought to himself: "Good fellow, this stepsister recognized me so quickly! Isn't it just to get a better relationship? And she said it so high-soundingly, as if it was really true."
However, Gao Yao still maintained his politeness on the surface. He slowly said, "Well, go back and tell the King of Wei that I like this gift very much. Someone, send the envoy of the King of Wei to the post station and entertain him well."
"Yes!" Following Gao Yao's order, two personal soldiers immediately responded and stood respectfully beside Kuai Tong, waiting for him to stand up.
Upon seeing this, Kuai Tong quickly stood up, saluted to Gao Yao, then turned around and followed his personal guards out of the main hall.
Just as Kuai Tong was about to step out of the main hall, Gao Yao suddenly stopped him: "Kuai Tong, my true words still count. People should look forward and not just focus on the small piece of land in front of them. You raise fish in the pond that suits you. If your vision is limited to a small range, it will inevitably limit your development. Only when your vision is broadened can you see more things, do you understand?"
Although Gao Yao's words were plain, the deep meaning contained in them made Kuai Tong startled. He stopped, turned around, looked at Gao Yao, nodded thoughtfully, and then said: "Thank you for your teachings, Prime Minister. Kuai Tong will definitely keep it in mind."
After saying this, Kuai Tong bowed to Gao Yao again before turning around and leaving, disappearing at the door of the main hall.
Kuai Tong could never have imagined that Gao Yao would be so obsessed with him at this moment when the beauty was in front of him! This feeling of being valued was something Kuai Tong had never experienced in his first half of his life. He couldn't help but feel a ripple in his heart, but he didn't forget the purpose of his visit, so he respectfully said goodbye to Gao Yao.
Next, it was Concubine Qi's turn. Gao Yao stared at Concubine Qi, who bowed her head and said nothing, and wondered in his heart how to properly deal with this special woman in front of him. After all, Concubine Qi's situation was indeed a little different. Her fate in her previous life was extremely tragic, and Gao Yao had never expected that in this strange combination of circumstances, Concubine Qi and Lu Zhi, the two enemies, would meet again in his hands.
Of course, the Lu Zhi of today is not the Lu Zhi of history. The Lu Zhi of history had gone through countless hardships. Before Liu Bang ascended the throne, she had hardly had a good day and was even abandoned by Liu Bang many times. All these things had already caused a huge change in her mentality.
With Gao Yao by her side, Lü Zhi basically never suffered any hardship except for some hardships on the way to the southern border. She had always lived a life of luxury, and Gao Yao also gave Lü Zhi corresponding power and treatment, allowing her to fully display her talents. It can be said that Gao Yao did not treat Lü Zhi unfairly.
"Someone, go and call Lu Zhi to me." Gao Yao ordered.
"Yes!" the servant responded, but hesitated for a moment.
Although he was a little hesitant, Gao Yao finally decided to call Lu Zhi to find out the situation in person. He thought, let's first see if the two of them were born incompatible. If so, then he could simply place Concubine Qi in a separate courtyard and go there occasionally to enjoy herself.
Not long after, Lu Zhi came to the main hall with light steps under the order of the attendant. When her eyes fell on Qi Ji who was kneeling below, her eyes tightened slightly, but she cleverly concealed it in an instant. Then, Lu Zhi walked straight to Gao Yao and bowed down.
"My dear, why did you call me here?" Lü Zhi said softly with a smile on her face. However, her eyes did not fall on Concubine Qi beside her, as if she did not exist at all.
Although Lü Zhi's voice was gentle, it revealed a hint of majesty. Her posture was elegant, and her every move exuded a noble temperament.
"Qi Ji, raise your head and let the lady see you." Gao Yao's voice sounded beside Lu Zhi.
