Prince Wu Guanhai was a little excited and quickly asked his father.
"If that's the case, Father, do you think we can keep Zhao Kang? With him here, our scenery will definitely take on a completely new look."
Wu Rulong glanced at his son: "There is no need to worry about this matter. Let Ye Hongxue contact him first, and we will just wait for the opportunity."
"This girl is the same. Xu Qing didn't inform me in advance about such a big thing. This shows that the relationship between her and Zhao Kang is very delicate."
Wu Guanhai was no doubt the crown prince, and he immediately understood the twists and turns: "Father, are you saying that the reason Lord Ye is like this is to help Zhao Kang kill Xu Qing?"
"good."
Wu Rulong hummed: "If she had told me in advance that she could use any Turtle Breath Technique to put Xu Qing into a state of suspended animation, Zhao Kang would not be able to tell if he is not proficient in martial arts."
Wu Rulong said while stroking his beard and squinting: "This girl, doesn't she have a crush on Zhao Kang?"
Wu Guanhai was stunned. If this was really the case, Zhao Kang was so powerful that he actually captured the most beautiful woman in Jingguo.
"Okay, let's do this for now. By the way, go tell the imperial kitchen and let them study the two dishes Zhao Kang made."
Wu Rulong snorted: "A group of masters are not as good as a scholar. I deserve to be damned if I have been eating pig food for so many years!"
The prince couldn't help but nodded in agreement.
the other side.
As soon as Zhao Kang arrived at the arranged residence, Ye Hongxue arrived immediately.
Seeing the woman's unhappy expression, Zhao Kang touched the tip of his nose and said with a smile, "Why does your face look so ugly?"
Ye Hongxue said angrily: "You couldn't be more tactful before. Do you know how many people in the court have murderous intentions towards you today?"
"Anyone who can serve as an official in Jingguo, even a civil servant, is a person with good cultivation. You are really not afraid of death!"
"Hey, what do I mean?"
Zhao Kang said indifferently: "It's not a big problem if this is not a good thing."
Ye Hongxue snorted coldly: "If the Protector hadn't been sensible and abiding by the rules, do you think you could really kill Xu Qing?"
"Okay, okay, I understand. Thank you very much this time. I have to say that the atmosphere among Jingguo's monarchs and ministers is indeed quite good. People are quite reasonable."
Zhao Kang hurriedly laughed and pulled Ye Hongxue to sit down. Looking at his playful and smiling face, as if he was not afraid of boiling water, Ye Hongxue felt a little helpless.
Fortunately, the matter was over after all, and His Majesty also issued an order to establish a good relationship with Zhao Kang.
She asked: "The letters of alliance have been exchanged, what are you going to do next?"
"After waiting for a day or two until the injuries of my subordinates in Langshan are almost recovered, I will return to Qian Kingdom to advise His Majesty on how to prepare for mining the Yunshan mineral vein."
Zhao Kang thought for a while and said, "You will need to make some efforts when the time comes."
Ye Hongxue immediately cheered up: "What needs to be done?"
Cooperation in mining between the two countries is a big deal. Zhao Kang said: "It will naturally bring together the miners and some blacksmiths from Jingguo. In addition, a large number of troops will be responsible for transporting the ore."
"This thing requires a lot of people. I will make a good plan after I go back. You guys will wait for my news. When the time comes, I will provide explosives for mining."
Mining in this era is not an easy task. The explosive method is used. The cracks on the surface of the mine expand and contract with heat and break to extract the ore.
It is undoubtedly much more convenient to have explosives.
Ye Hongxue thought for a while and then said with some embarrassment: "That Zhao Kang."
"what you want to say?"
Ye Hongxue hesitated for a moment and then said: "That explosive."
Zhao Kang rolled his eyes: "I can't decide this matter. If I give it to you, will Her Majesty the Empress skin me?"
Ye Hongxue sighed inwardly, as expected, this thing is not so easy to obtain.
Zhao Kang consoled him: "Don't worry, as long as our alliance does not break down, the explosives will not fall on your Jingguo."
"Things are unpredictable, who knows." Ye Hongxue said helplessly.
Zhao Kang didn't care: "We'll talk about it then."
There is a saying that the general trend of the world will unite if it divides for a long time, and it will divide if it unites for a long time. He doesn't know if he will see the time when the world will be unified.
However, he has no control over these things, let alone wants to control them. He just wants to help Xiao Linglong protect the country of Qian.
The alliance was formed. Accompanied by Ye Hongxue, Zhao Kang spent two days in Hua Jingcheng. During this period, he was accompanied by Prince Wu Guanhai.
This humble prince asked Zhao Kang for advice on some academic matters from time to time, which made Zhao Kang miserable.
I'm just a copycat. I don't understand what you're talking about. I don't understand.
Therefore, Wu Guanhai often asked questions again, and Zhao Kang answered very few questions.
I was really desperate, so I copied a sentence from Mencius: "The people are noble, the country is noble, and the king is light."
Wu Guanhai was astonished and admired for a moment, and felt that Zhao Kang was even more extraordinary.
Today, when Zhao Kang and Ye Hongxue were wandering on the street, a group of forbidden troops rushed over to find them.
As soon as the leader saw Ye Hongxue, he immediately knelt down and said: "Master Ye, your Majesty has summoned you to enter the palace as soon as possible."
Ye Hongxue did not hesitate and headed straight to the palace with Zhao Kang.
On the way, Zhao Kang couldn't help but wonder, what happened in such a hurry?
When they arrived at the palace, Ye Hongxue remembered that Zhao Kang beside him was not suitable to follow, and quickly found a few eunuchs to send Zhao Kang to the side hall to wait.
After expressing his apology, he went to the main hall. Zhao Kang didn't have any grudges in his heart. Naturally, he, a Qian countryman, couldn't interfere with the affairs of other countries.
It was time to leave, and I would say goodbye to Wu Rulong and others later.
In the main hall.
Ye Hongxue came late and frowned slightly when she saw a few strangers in the court.
Wu Rulong sat on the dragon chair and said with a smile: "Master Ye is here. These are envoys from Zhou and Qi. They just arrived in our country today."
Ye Hongxue frowned slightly and said calmly: "I've seen the envoy. What's the reason for your visit to our country?"
The man in the official uniform of the Zhou Dynasty sneered and looked at Ye Hongxue: "Master Ye, the third prince of our country, Li Muqing, and the King of Han Dynasty, Liu Hanlong, have not returned to the country yet."
"Mr. Ye went to work with them and returned together. I'm afraid we have to give an explanation for this matter, right?"
A visitor from the Qi State also said: "Yes, it has been almost two months since you joined the Qiang Dynasty. The whereabouts of our royal family are unknown at the moment. What is going on!"
Ye Hongxue said calmly: "If I remember correctly, when your country sent people to inquire half a month ago, I already wrote two letters to explain the matter. After leaving Jiayin Pass, I, Ye Hongxue, parted ways with them and returned to the mainland alone. scene."
"What does it have to do with me that Li Muqing and Liu Hanlong didn't go back?"
"Hmph, excuses!"
The envoy from the Great Zhou Dynasty said coldly: "The third prince is one of the heirs of my Great Zhou Dynasty. He left the Qian Kingdom with you. Now his life and death are unknown and his whereabouts are unknown. When you say that it has nothing to do with you, do you think that I, the Great Zhou Dynasty, am a three-year-old child?" !”
After all, the two countries came to investigate and punished each other. Ye Hongxue was a little lucky that she had just realized what she was doing and didn't bring Zhao Kang to the palace.
She opened her eyes, and a powerful aura erupted from her body, looking at the two people who had raised an army to accuse them.
"I said I don't know, I just don't know. What can you do to me?"
