Yao Zhong looked at him with a half-smile but said: "Your Highness Ji Rong, blaming someone else is not a good quality. It's obvious that you yourself don't like your mother and Brother Wang, but now you blame this outsider.
Isn’t it a bit too much?”
"An outsider?" The look on Ji Rong's face was a bit sarcastic.
Yao Zhong said: "Isn't it?"
"That's what you say." Ji Rong said coldly: "When can Xie Yan arrive?"
Yao Zhong spread his hands and said, "How do I know this?"
Ji Rong said: "Then you'd better urge him to hurry up. If he's late, he won't be able to catch up. I don't think Mr. Yao wants the regent to personally lead thousands of troops and horses to trek thousands of miles across the desert, right?" Yao Zhong looked casual and seemed to be distracted.
He didn't care, "It seems that Bai Jingrong's conversation with the Dayin people went smoothly. I'm curious, what benefits does she have for herself by doing this..."
Ji Rong looked at him coldly and said, "Just like you still haven't figured out why she wanted to harm your Yao family back then."
The expression on Yao Zhong's face darkened, and he looked coldly at the thin young man in front of him.
This is obviously a topic that cannot be mentioned, but Ji Rong is in a bad mood now and does not want Yao Zhong to be arrogant in front of him.
After a long while, I heard Yao Zhong ask: "So, you know?"
Ji Rong said: "A woman who has always been sought after by everyone and who is extremely proud of her success, the most intolerable thing is for someone to disobey her will. Back then, the Yao family might not have been wiped out. Mr. Yao, it was your pride that harmed you.
Yao family. You rejected the request made by the most beautiful woman in Dongling. If you don’t die, who will die?"
Yao Zhong's face was gloomy. He stared at Ji Rong for a long time and suddenly sneered: "So, she would rather cooperate with Yin Ren to bring down Ji Zhan. Is it for this reason?"
"You don't believe it?" Ji Rong raised her eyebrows.
Yao Zhong remained silent while Ji Rong took a clean cup from the side, poured another cup of tea and placed it opposite him.
"Or, the reason now is more solid. If she doesn't take action, the best outcome for her within two years will be to live in a corner of the palace of the Qi people's royal court, and become a queen mother with no worries about food and clothing, no power and no power. Do you think,
Can she bear it?"
No, Yao Zhong thought to himself.
Yao Zhong is different from all the women in the world, she seems to be born for power.
It would be more uncomfortable for her to let her give up her power and become a pampered ordinary woman than to kill her.
She will never give up, even if Ji Zhan wins, she will not stop. Ji Zhan knows very well what kind of person his mother is, so he will kill her sooner or later.
"The reason is indeed very good." Yao Zhong said thoughtfully.
Ji Rong said: "My mother was indeed born to be in power, but unfortunately... she was born at the wrong time, and the people she met always did not please her. But now... she is old. The next generation of the Bai family army who followed her is in her hands
Seeing that there is no hope, they have already turned to Ji Zhan, the just and righteous young master. How many of the older generation are really willing to ignore their wives and children? The Bai family army has been with the Qi people for many years, and most of them have already mixed with the Qi people.
There are already a minority of pure Central Plains people in the next generation. Therefore, she has already felt that sooner or later she will not be able to control the Bai family army, and by then Ji Zhan can be said to have won without a fight."
"So she needs new helpers." Yao Zhong said.
Ji Rong said: "I said, she is already old. She thought she could control King Chachin, but it's hard to say who is using whom."
Yao Zhong sat down opposite him and said, "What about you? What do you want?"
Ji Rong remained silent.
Yao Chong lowered his eyes and recited the Buddha's name, as if he was still the enlightened monk in Shangyong Temple.
“The donor’s obsession is too strong, I’m afraid it’s not a good sign.”
Ji Rong looked indifferent, "Master, people like you...even if they have experienced the hatred of destroying their families and annihilating their clans, they still can't understand people like us."
Yao Zhong raised his eyebrows, nodded and said nothing.
"I thought you would say something more." He didn't speak, but Ji Rong was not used to it.
Yao Zhong sighed: "Buddha crosses the fate of a destined person."
On the third day after Luo Junyao and Xie Yan got together, Qin Yaoer also arrived at the royal court.
With Qin Yaoer, Luo Junyao felt that it was much more convenient.
After all, Miss Yao'er's disguise skills are superb, much better than her own three-legged cat skills.
Qin Yao'er was even able to dress up Luo Junyao, who looked completely from the Central Plains, as a flawless Qi girl. Of course, given that Luo Junyao was not very authentic in Qi language, he ended up just dressing up as a girl who was obviously of mixed blood from the Western Regions and the Central Plains. girl.
Luo Junyao dressed up like this, naturally not just for fun.
Early in the morning, Luo Junyao followed a group of girls and walked into the Qi Clan Palace under the leadership of the palace steward.
The girls traveling together showed no curiosity or joy at this most gorgeous palace in the oasis. On the contrary, all of them had a bit of uneasiness on their faces.
They were not Qi tribesmen, but female slaves from surrounding small tribes who paid tribute to King Qi.
Some of them came here voluntarily for their families and tribes, and some were abducted and trafficked from countries in the Western Regions.
No matter which one it is, according to the news they received before, the Qi people are a terrifying existence.
They were told that those with good looks or special talents might be selected to serve King Qi or the Queen Mother, or they might be rewarded to nobles.
Those who were mediocre in appearance or not liked by the superiors would be sent to the female slave yard behind the palace to engage in manual labor.
They may stay and work in female slave houses for the rest of their lives, or they may be rewarded to ordinary Qi soldiers at certain special times.
From the moment they were sent to the royal court of the Qi tribe, they were no longer a person but an object.
Luo Junyao, like the girl next to her, lowered her head and followed the crowd. They were now going to be taken to the Queen Mother's palace.
The royal palace of the Qi people is not very big. Except for the Queen Mother, King Qi and the Queen have separate palaces, and everyone else can only live with others.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! These are all defective products left after being selected, and are not qualified to serve King Qi and become his concubines in Queen Qi's harem.
The only chance for them to escape from entering the female slave house is to be selected by a nobleman in the palace and become the slaves serving around them. Although they are both slaves and maids, it is much better than entering the female slave house.
It is said that no slave who entered the female slave compound could survive more than five years.
The steward led them to the door of a palace. Luo Junyao raised his head and glanced at the writing on the door of the palace, and immediately knew where he had arrived.
This is the palace where the Queen Mother lives, and Bai Jingrong's place.
Luo Junyao was not worried. It was impossible for Bai Jingrong to recognize her in her current state.
But how to let people keep her is a problem.
They were not qualified to enter the Queen Mother's palace, so a group of people could only stand in the open space at the entrance of the palace and wait.
After a while, a woman who looked like a manager walked in from inside. She was from the Central Plains, in her forties, with a stern expression and a arrogant look.
The steward who led them in was from the Qi tribe, but he did not dare to offend her.
"These are the female slaves sent this time?" the woman asked a little pickyly.
The steward nodded and said: "That's right. We will send them here first. Please choose the ones first."
The woman snorted softly and said, "There is no need for the Queen Mother to worry about such a trivial matter."
She glanced at everyone and said with disgust: "Why are they all barbarians from the Western Regions?"
This sentence was spoken in the Central Plains dialect, and most of the people present did not understand it. Those who did understand did not dare to speak. People number 20 or 30 could only stand there in silence, letting her choose while complaining.
Luo Junyao's appearance quickly attracted the woman's attention, "Are you of Central Plains descent?"
Luo Junyao immediately said: "Yes, my mother is from the Central Plains."
The woman sneered and said, "I hate these bastards who corrupt the blood of my ancestors the most!"
I go……
Auntie, are you too powerful? If I remember correctly, the current King Qi of your family is the bastard you say has corrupted the bloodline of your ancestors.
Moreover, the initiator seems to be your master.
The woman didn't give Luo Junyao time to react, and said coldly: "This won't work, just send it in..."
Before she could finish speaking, Luo Junyao whispered: "Auntie, His Majesty King Qi seems to have Central Plains bloodline. When you talk about corrupting the ancestral bloodline, do you mean the bloodline of the Qi people or the bloodline of the Central Plains?"
The woman's face changed slightly and she said coldly: "Are you threatening me?"
Luo Junyao shook his head innocently, "I'm just telling the truth."
"you……"
"Yun Chang, what are you doing?" A voice came from the door, with a hint of dissatisfaction: "It's just choosing a few people, why are you so slow? I have something to do with you."
The woman's face changed slightly, she glared at Luo Junyao warningly and said, "It'll be over soon."
A woman who also looked like a Central Plains person came out, a few years younger than that woman. She glanced at the people at the door and said, "Forget it, you go in first, don't let me wait, I'll do it here."
"But..." Yun Chang hesitated.
The woman whispered: "Don't delay, I'm in a bad mood."
Hearing this, the woman did not dare to stay any longer and quickly turned around and went in.
She originally wanted to tell her successor not to choose Luo Junyao, but she was afraid that Luo Junyao would make a fuss on the spot. That girl didn't look like a timid and peaceful person.
If the trouble gets too big, even if the queen doesn't punish her and the news reaches the king's ears, she will be in serious trouble.
So before leaving, he just glared at Luo Junyao again and gave up.
Watching her hurried in, the woman who stayed behind looked at everyone carefully, then selected a few people and asked a few questions at will, without making any trouble.
With the woman just now as a foil, the girls all felt that the later female steward was a good person. They all cast hopeful glances at her, hoping that they would be chosen.
The woman looked calm and unmoved, and raised her hand to nod four people.
Among them was Luo Junyao.
Luo Junyao followed the selected girls towards the palace, looking thoughtfully at the person leading the way.
Is this intentional or a coincidence?
