Selfish? Self-interested? Hearing this word, Wei Zijun smiled, because this was the first time someone had said that to her.
Moreover, the person who said this was a member of the same clan.
"You can still laugh? Why did my elder brother and sister-in-law give birth to an unfilial and rebellious daughter like you? You are such a bastard." Wei Shulin became even more angry when he saw her reaction.
"How did you find this place?" Wei Zijun didn't want to waste time talking to him about boring topics, so he asked directly what he wanted to know.
"Hmph, who told you to live a low-key life after running away, but to be so high-profile? There was a businessman who visited the caravan in Xuzhou City before. He was good at painting and greedy for drinking." Wei Shulin said happily.
When the caravan arrived at the border of the Yangli Kingdom, they had wine with the local businessmen and talked about the six cities. They said that business was easy here, and naturally they talked about Mrs. Gu, the lord of the six cities.
The businessman proudly claimed to have seen Mrs. Gu, but no one believed her, so he took out the portrait.
In fact, even if he took out the portrait, the people at the table were still dubious. After all, none of them had seen Mrs. Gu. Who knew whether the portrait in the businessman's hand was actually Mrs. Gu.
However, it happened to be such a coincidence that the Wei family was also entertaining friends in that restaurant at that time. When they came out of the private room and went downstairs to pay the bill, they saw the portrait.
This businessman's painting skills were so good that the Wei family member immediately felt that he looked very similar to the eldest daughter of the family.
So, he ordered the boy to keep an eye on the merchant and quickly went back to report to the clan leader.
Since the eldest daughter of the eldest family ran away from home, people in the clan have not stopped looking for her.
Therefore, even though they were not sure that Mrs. Gu, the Lord of the Six Cities, was the person they were looking for, they decided to send someone over to confirm.
Because of the long distance and the special identity of the suspect, the final candidate was the arrested Wei Shulin.
In fact, on the way here, he was thinking that most likely, his trip would be in vain.
The eldest daughter of the eldest cousin's family has never experienced hardships since she was a child. She is a girl who is loved by the elders of the clan because she has special blood.
How could such a person travel such a long distance alone in troubled times? How could he become the Lord of Six Cities?
You know, women do have that kind of special intelligence and talent, and they can control the family house very stably, but the prerequisite is the rear house.
How is it possible to take six cities in three countries as one's own? How is it possible to have such great ability to turn a desolate and abandoned city into an enviable place that people want to seek refuge in?
Of course, he had also heard the rumor that someone else was behind the Lord of the Six Cities.
Anyway, no matter what, he is going to come this time.
It was also because of the special nature of the Wei family towards the royal family that he joined the palace as a guard in the imperial barracks. Wei Shulin knew that he did not work in the palace based on his abilities.
When we were discussing a trip to Dama City in the Mingli Kingdom, he happened to return to his clan, and he recommended himself.
Regardless of whether this trip can confirm whether Mrs. Gu is Wei Zijun, the eldest daughter of the Wei family, at least in the eyes of the palace, he has meritorious service, so his trip is worthwhile.
After traveling all the way to Damascus, I discovered that this place, one of the six cities, was not much different from the rumors.
I used my brains to sneak into the city and found that although it was not as prosperous as the capital city of Yangli State, it was much better than other state cities in the country.
Outside the city and inside the city are clean and fresh. There are people wearing clean mandarin jackets, holding brooms and baskets. When they see stolen goods and garbage on the ground, they clean it up immediately.
The door panels of the shops in the city are arranged in an orderly manner, and the stalls on the roadside are not in a mess. Although most of the people on the street are wearing the most ordinary coarse clothes, they are all neat and tidy.
Whether they were in a hurry or strolling by leisurely, their expressions gave Wei Shulin the feeling of being at ease and contented.
Wei Shulin had originally planned not to rush into asking about Mrs. Nagu's affairs after entering the city, so as not to arouse suspicion from others, and to be more cautious.
However, what I didn't expect was that I was caught on the first day after finally sneaking into the city.
This shows that people noticed him when he entered the city and were already watching him. It is a pity that he, who has been in the Forbidden Army for so many years, did not notice anything unusual.
I was arrested while I was sleeping.
He thought he had been cautious enough, but he still stumbled into a big mess.
Wei Shulin was in a very complicated mood at this moment.
Being someone's prisoner should be a very embarrassing thing, but when he opened his eyes, what he saw was the person he was looking for on this trip!
Before setting off to come, several elders in the clan explained that his main task was to confirm whether Mrs. Gu was Wei Zijun.
They didn't even expect him to take the person back. After all, if it was really confirmed that the Lord of the Six Cities was the person they were looking for, how could he possibly take the person away based on his ability alone.
When Wei Shulin came, he thought about many ways to approach the scene where He met Mrs. Gu on the way. But he did not include the one in front of him. It can be said that apart from the difficulty and effort when entering the city, the meeting
She is really too simple.
As soon as he closed his eyes and opened them again, the Wei family and the people in the palace found the person who had been searching for Yangli Kingdom from east to west and from south to north for thirteen years in front of them.
Who would have thought that she is not in her own country?
Instead, he went to another country. It was not a neighboring country, but the Mingli Kingdom, which was separated from the Yangli Kingdom by a Gaoqiu Kingdom.
Everyone thought so because she was a spoiled young lady and would not run that far even if she escaped. The key point is that the Mingli Kingdom was still a place where wars had been going on for years and their own people were fleeing in all directions.
The eldest niece in front of him looked at him without any trace of nervousness or panic, as if everything was under her control. Wei Shulin thought a lot, and suddenly felt a little regretful.
She is no longer the little canary that was carefully fed back then. After more than ten years of experience, she has become an eagle dominating the sky.
I don't know why, but the eldest niece's eyes were calm but powerful, which made Wei Shulin feel a strong sense of oppression.
At this time, after hearing Wei Shulin's words, Wei Zijun was silent for a long time.
Is it like this? She also found it quite surprising. In recent years, she has encouraged the people in the six cities to set up various workshops, helped think of new products, and encouraged the caravans in the six cities to transport the goods from the workshops to sell them.
Caravans from outside are also encouraged to come, and there are many preferential policies for foreign caravans.
For example, when a caravan comes from outside, they stay in an inn at 20% off the room rate. The local government provides a warehouse for storing goods free of charge, and also arranges for people to guard it.
Because there are many workshops in these six cities, and the products they make are not available elsewhere, it is easy to sell when shipped out, and the profits are stable, so caravans from all over the country are willing to come here.
Sometimes, Wei Zijun would meet with them when he was not busy and ask for their opinions and suggestions.
Therefore, there are many foreign businessmen who have seen her.
So, did she expose herself? Wei Zijun really didn’t know how to describe her mood at the moment!
"Zijun, I am your elder." Wei Shulin saw that she had not said a word for a long time, so he thought for a moment and reminded her...
