In the main hall of political affairs, all the civil and military officials of the Zhou Kingdom were standing. Cao Anguo, the Minister of Rites, walked in with a group of officials of the Ministry of Rites.
Emperor Li Chengkun asked: "Cao Aiqing, how is the matter?"
After Cao Anguo saluted, he stood up and said: "Reporting to Your Majesty, the people of Qianguo and Jingguo have made arrangements. It is just as written in the documents sent by the two countries."
"Jingguo is led by Prince Wu Guanhai, and Qianguo is Zhao Kang, the national advisor of Qianguo!"
In an instant, the eyes of countless civil and military ministers fell on Cao Anguo.
Zhao Kang!
The culprit who caused our great defeat and heavy losses on Monday actually dared to come!
"Haha, it seems that the Imperial Master of Qian Kingdom is more courageous than we thought."
A young man in a yellow robe in the court smiled coldly. His appearance was very similar to that of Li Muqing, who was killed by Zhao Kang.
This is not surprising, because he is the second prince of Zhou Kingdom and the biological brother of Li Muqing's mother, Li Musen.
Cao Anguo said softly: "Your Majesty, the second prince, Zhao Kang, the national advisor of the Qian Kingdom, should not be underestimated."
"Although this man is young, his words and actions are not arrogant at all. He is quite experienced. Since he dares to come to the meeting, he has something to rely on."
Li Musen lowered his eyebrows and smiled: "This is natural. Nowadays, many people in the academy regard the Qianguo Imperial Master as a great enemy. Has Mr. Cao made it clear that he will participate in this Four Kingdoms Cultural Conference?"
Cao Anguo frowned slightly: "No."
Li Chengkun closed his eyes: "Then it seems that we have to force this Qianguoguoshi."
A minister thought for a moment and said, "Based on our intelligence, Zhao Kang is as scheming and cunning as the sea. It will not be easy to trick him."
Cao Anguo smiled at this time and said: "Zhao Kang did not come alone this time, he also brought his family with him."
"Family members?" Many people in the hall looked suspicious.
The official who accompanied Cao Anguo to receive Zhao Kang nodded, with a hint of resentment in his tone.
"Zhao Kang's wife is truly a woman of unparalleled beauty and beauty. She is no less beautiful than the one in our academy."
"Oh? In that case..."
Li Musen's eyes flashed: "Then we can make a fuss about Zhao Kang's family."
Cao Anguo: "Wei Chen also thinks this way."
Li Chengkun: "Then let the people below prepare. All in all, this cultural conference must make Zhao Kang and Qian Guo pay a heavy price!"
…
Zhao Kang naturally didn't know that Zhou's ministers and the emperor were already discussing how to deal with him.
As the most powerful country in the North, the wealth and prosperity of the Zhou Dynasty cannot be denied.
Just in the commercial street where Zhao Kang and his two were located, they visited many shops, and the prices of the things were far more expensive than those of Qian Guo and Jing Guo.
The same thing can be bought for five cents in Qian Country, but it costs fifteen cents here.
The price difference also implies that Zhou's economy is far superior to that of the other three countries.
"How about this one?"
In the clothing store, Zhao Kang pointed at a red satin woven phoenix skirt and looked at Ye Hongxue beside him with some expectancy.
Rolling her eyes, Ye Hongxue said helplessly: "With your vision, why do you always choose such fancy things for me?"
"Don't all girls like the color red?" Zhao Kang sneered, feeling quite embarrassed. This was the first time he bought clothes for his beloved.
He couldn't help but reveal his straight male nature.
The waiter at the store next to him, who had already been immersed in Ye Hongxue's appearance and couldn't help himself, hurriedly came forward to please him and smiled flatteringly: "Sir, you are wrong. Not all women are suitable for red."
"As for this young lady, she is as beautiful as a fairy. The color red on her looks too tacky! Why don't you take a look at this one?"
The waiter pointed at a blue dress, and Ye Hongxue nodded with satisfaction: "This is good."
"Isn't it too monotonous?" Zhao Kang touched his chin, still feeling that the bright red one he had chosen was better.
Ye Hongxue didn't bother to pay attention to him and ordered the waiter: "Just this one."
"Get another shawl, goose down!" Zhao Kang added hastily.
The waiter smiled and responded, and a man walked in at the door. He was a young man in rich clothes.
As soon as he entered the door, he was attracted by Ye Hongxue's appearance and exclaimed: "What a beauty!"
Zhao Kang turned his head and glanced, but Ye Hongxue didn't express anything. She had long been accustomed to outsiders praising her when she grew up.
Unexpectedly, the young man walked straight over, his tone full of admiration: "This young lady, I am Chen Tianyi, do you dare to ask her her name?"
"I'm not familiar with you, so I don't have time." Ye Hongxue responded indifferently, and Zhao Kang snickered in his heart.
A hot face and a cold butt, but the young man who calls himself Chen Tianyi is not embarrassed at all.
Instead, he took a few steps closer and showed a warm smile: "Meeting each other is fate, but if we exchange names, why would the young lady reject someone thousands of miles away?"
Ye Hongxue turned her head and looked at Zhao Kang and blinked.
Zhao Kang took the clothes packed by the waiter with a smile on his face, pulled the woman behind him, and smiled at Chen Tianyi: "Brother, this beauty is already married to a famous woman, don't ask for trouble!"
Chen Tianyi was stunned at first, and then his eyes showed a hint of contempt: "Who are you? Why are you interrupting when I'm talking to this lady?"
Zhao Kang was stunned for a moment, there was actually someone more shameless than me, and he immediately laughed angrily: "I am none of your business, madam, go away!"
Ye Hongxue looked playful, stretched out her hand to hold Zhao Kang's arm and said with a smile: "Okay, sir."
Hearing this call, Chen Tian was stunned on the spot. He didn't even think about where he lost until Zhao Kang paid the money and took Ye Hongxue out.
Suddenly coming to his senses, Chen Tianyi immediately chased him out, still shouting.
"Miss! Wait a moment!"
"Damn it, you're not playing anymore, are you? You're so thick-skinned!"
Zhao Kang turned around angrily, showing a fierce look: "Don't you fucking know how to listen to others? If you follow me, believe it or not, I will break your three legs!"
Chen Tianyi stood still, looked at Zhao Kang and chuckled: "You are the first person in Yandu who dares to talk to me like this! I have taken a liking to this young lady. How much will I give you?"
wqnmlgbd!
As soon as the other party finished speaking, Zhao Kang kicked him out, sending the person flying five meters away and rolling twice on the ground.
Obviously, Chen Tianyi did not expect that Zhao Kang would take action at the slightest disagreement. He screamed and lay on the ground without reacting for a while.
It wasn't until Zhao Kang came over that he came to his senses and said with fear and fear: "You! How dare you hit me!"
"What's wrong with hitting you! You look like a human being, why can't you listen to others? I'll go to hell with you!"
Half of Chen Tian's face was red and swollen with a slap in the face. Zhao Kang beat him again and again while cursing angrily, which quickly attracted everyone to watch.
