Yang Liuqing put a letter on the table and said, "Master, uncle, they should arrive tomorrow."
Miss Liu Er put down the martial arts classics collected by the Wu Kingdom royal family in her hands, stood up and walked out of the palace.
Yang Liuqing watched her walk out and sighed softly.
She walked outside the palace and said to Chen Qing, who was standing there waiting: "Tomorrow, the two uncles will arrive in the imperial capital. Can you please General Chen to greet them on my behalf?"
Chen Qing said quickly: "No trouble, I haven't seen His Highness King Jing for a long time."
Chen Qing followed Yang Liuqing from the chaotic land step by step, and fought all the way to the imperial capital. He was one of the important ministers who assisted Yang Liuqing in ascending the throne.
His status is equivalent to that of the founding general, which is completely different from what it was a few years ago.
Even if envoys from Jing State or Qi State arrive, he does not need to go out of the city to greet them in person, but this time it is different.
After receiving the order, he left in a hurry.
Tomorrow I go out of the city to meet King Jing. If I don't call Wei Liang, I'm afraid he will have trouble with me in the future. Blind Fan will also have to call me. They have all been favored and taught by King Jing, so these etiquettes are what they should do.
Miss Liu Er returned to the palace, took the autumn water, and said to Yang Liuqing: "I will be away for a while. Although you are tired from state affairs, you must not neglect your martial arts training. This will be of great benefit to you."
Yang Liuqing nodded and said, "Disciple knows."
Not long after, the white-haired old man walked into the hall from outside and asked doubtfully: "Why is your master gone?"
Yang Liuqing thought for a while and said, "Master..., she has some things to deal with."
Yang Wanli stopped asking about this matter and suddenly asked: "I heard that the boy named Li is coming?"
Yang Liuqing nodded and said, "Uncle will be here tomorrow."
"That's good..." A smile appeared on Yang Wanli's face and he said, "This guy has a lot of bad ideas and a lot of bad ideas. Let him help you with more ideas when the time comes..."
…
Li Yi had seen the capital of Jing State, the capital of Qi State, and the capital of Wu State.
Excluding personal emotional factors, comparing the three, Qi's capital should be the most impressive, at least from the outside.
Of course, overall, Kyoto is more prosperous.
The imperial city of Wu Kingdom is the shabbiest among the three.
Along the way, Li Yi and Ruyi learned more about Wu State.
After the Wu Kingdom experienced ten years of turmoil, it was a long-term matter to restore the country's roots, and it could not be accomplished overnight.
Yang Liuqing had just ascended the throne, and everything in the Wu Kingdom was in dire straits. Although she had a small notebook tailor-made for her, nothing could be accomplished overnight.
The natural punishment of Wu Kingdom is that after the domestic war ends, the chaotic land will no longer be supplied.
Li Yi thought this was unnecessary before, but now he is afraid that he will have to change his plan again.
Every few days, he would hear the news that Qi State had wiped out a small country in the west. With Qi State's current strength, it was only a matter of time before it swept through all the countries in the west. By then, there would be nothing on this continent that would prevent him from becoming the world's leader.
The only ones left were Wu Guo and Jing Guo.
If Qi State really goes all out, Wu State may not be able to win despite being punished by heaven.
If there is no natural punishment, then Zhao State is likely to be a lesson for them.
Of course, Jing Guo would not just watch Qi Guo annex all the countries. At that time, it would really be time to reshuffle the forces on this continent.
He and Ruyi entered the city gate, inquired about the location of the palace, and walked in that direction.
Ruyi sighed softly and said: "My husband wrote that letter first. If Ruyi knew that we had arrived, I am afraid he would deliberately hide."
Of course Li Yi knew that Miss Liu Er would deliberately hide, but if she hadn't figured it out, even if he and Ruyi appeared silently, she would still leave, and it would be more serious than if she took the initiative to hide.
Li Yi smiled, held her hand and said: "It doesn't matter, we have nothing to do anyway. We will chase her wherever she hides. When she gets tired of hiding, she will naturally come out."
The imperial capital of Wu Kingdom was indeed shabby.
The roads are full of potholes and sewage and garbage are everywhere. It can't even compare to a second-tier city in Jingguo, let alone Kyoto, which has all replaced cement roads.
Even the main roads of important cities in Qi's Gyeonggi region are paved with neatly cut bluestone slabs.
Of course, this is also Li Yi's own negligence.
Most of what he recorded in the small notebook he gave to Yang Liuqing were revolutionary experiences, and he also dabbled a little bit about how to govern the country after winning the fruits of victory.
However, there was no mention of these infrastructure constructions.
"Get out of the way, get out of the way!"
A horse galloped from behind, and pedestrians on the street ducked.
Li Yi and Ruyi stood on the street, watching the young man riding on the horse, laughing and riding away, frowning slightly.
In the capital of a country, there are people running wildly on the main streets. How did Yang Liuqing become the queen?
He leaned over and helped up an old man who accidentally fell to the ground when he was dodging just now. He couldn't help but ask: "There are people running wildly on the streets of the imperial capital. Don't the government care?"
The old man sighed and asked, "Is the young master from other places?"
Li Yi nodded.
"Young master, you don't know something." The old man looked ahead and said, "The one who was riding on the horse just now was the young master of the Zhang family. Several people in the Zhang family are high-ranking officials in the imperial court. When His Majesty attacked the traitor who usurped the throne,
, The Zhang family has helped His Majesty a lot. How can the government dare to take care of this kind of thing? Even if someone is really killed, it will be in vain..."
The majesty mentioned by the old man is naturally Yang Liuqing.
When Yang Liuqing and others invaded the imperial capital of Wu Kingdom, they actually did not expend much effort and did not use heavenly punishment. It could even be said that it was effortless.
Because at that time, the original tyrant of the Wu Kingdom had turned away from his will, and the officials, dignitaries and major families in the imperial city were eager to overthrow his tyranny.
When Yang Liuqing and others arrived here, the gates of the imperial capital were wide open, and the people lined the streets to welcome them. They entered the imperial capital very easily.
But this is not the reason for her connivance towards these families.
Or maybe she herself didn't know that these people in the imperial capital were so arrogant.
But no matter what the reason was, her little nephew still had a long way to go before she could become a qualified queen, and she still needed to be trained and trained by him.
There is no "tune".
…
"Mom, I want to eat candied haws."
On the streets of Huangdu, a little girl pointed to the vendor selling candied haws in the middle of the street, turned her head, looked at her mother, and begged.
The woman took out two pennies from her arms, handed it to her, and said, "There are only two pennies left. Go and ask how much a candied haws a stick is."
"Yeah!" A smile immediately appeared on the little girl's face, her eyes turned into crescents, she ran to the middle of the street, spread her hands, showing the two cents in her hand, and said: "Brother, brother, I want a candied haws!"
The vendor selling candied haws on a stick was a boy of 17 or 18 years old. He was holding a stick in his hand. Above the stick was a raised haystack, and the haystack was filled with candied haws.
He looked at the two pennies in the little girl's hand, touched his head, and said with some embarrassment: "My candied haws, only three pennies each..."
The little girl's eyes dimmed instantly, she said "Oh", turned around and walked outside.
The young man stood in the yard, thought for a moment, and suddenly said: "Little sister, please wait a moment."
He took a candied haws from the haystack, handed it to her, and said, "Forget it, I'll sell you one for two cents. Don't tell anyone else. If I sell them all for two cents, I'll lose money!"
A smile immediately appeared on the little girl's face, she took the candied haws, nodded heavily, and said, "Thank you, brother!"
The young man smiled, turned around and left, shouting: "Candied haws on a stick, candied haws on a stick, sweet and sour candied haws on a stick..."
The little girl stood in the middle of the street and took a bite of the candied haws with a happy smile on her face.
"Get out of the way!"
On the street, the crowds were dodging one after another, and a fast horse galloped from behind.
The woman looked at the little girl standing in the middle of the road, her face instantly turned pale, and she lost her voice: "Girl!"
The little girl raised her head and saw a big horse charging towards her. She trembled and the candied haws in her hand fell to the ground.
boom!
An extremely dull voice suddenly sounded.
The horse fell to the ground, its head broken, and it made no sound.
The young man on the horse flew straight out. After landing, his body bent strangely and he lay on the ground, howling miserably.
The boy who was selling candied haws looked at the candied haws scattered on the floor with a pity expression on his face.
The candied haws were scattered all over the ground, and the haystacks at the top of the sticks also flew out.
He pulled off the gray cloth wrapping the stick, and everyone saw clearly that it was not a wooden stick at all, but an iron rod as thick as a child's arm.
It was precisely because of this that he was able to kill the horse with one stroke of his stick.
It's just that this young man is really powerful. Such a thick iron rod seems to be weightless in his hand...
The little girl had recovered from the fright, looked at the young man blankly, and murmured: "Brother, you are so powerful, as powerful as Sun Dasheng..."
The young man was stunned when he heard this, turned the iron rod in his hand, and said sheepishly: "Really? In fact, many people say so..."
