The middle-aged guard stood respectfully at the door and truthfully reported Ji Ke's words to the young man in white robe.
After he finished speaking, he added a few words with anger still lingering.
"Your Highness, you are the eldest prince of our Changfeng Kingdom, how noble your status is!"
"It's her honor that you are willing to invite her. I didn't expect that girl to be so rude!"
The young man in white robe sat at the table, holding a wine glass in one hand and his chin in the other, with a sneer on his lips.
He thought for a moment and murmured as if to himself: "It is really rare to find such a beautiful, lovely, and spiritual girl."
"I have traveled to Changfeng and Mao Rong and other countries, but I have never seen such a lovely girl. Her beauty and agility are almost comparable to Xuanxuan..."
"However, she has a soft spot for that ordinary boy in black robe. What a pity!"
The middle-aged guard frowned and thought for a moment, then a cold light flashed in his eyes, and he lowered his voice and said, "Your Highness, would you like me to teach that boy a lesson?"
"My subordinates will kidnap that girl later. She will be at your mercy tonight, Your Highness..."
He had done this kind of thing for the eldest prince before, and more than once. He was very familiar with doing this kind of thing.
It was precisely because of this that he gained the respect of the eldest prince and was taken by his side.
The eldest prince frowned slightly, pondered for a moment, then waved his hand and said: "No need, put this matter aside for now."
"Go check how many banknotes we have with us and prepare all the money. I will go to Tianbao Tower later."
"There will be a Wanling Jade Pillow in tonight's auction. It is said that this thing has miraculous effects. It can regulate yin and yang and cure all kinds of illnesses."
"Xuanxuan has been tortured by extremely cold and cold poison since she was a child. If this prince were to receive the Ten Thousand Spirits Jade Pillow as a gift to her, she would definitely treat me..."
The middle-aged guard accepted the order and quickly went down to count the money and belongings in the luggage.
In the lobby on the first floor, Ji Tianxing and Ji Ke continued to eat.
Although she was disturbed by an inexplicable young master just now, it did not affect Ji Ke's mood.
The two of them were eating when they heard guests chatting at several tables next to them. Their words were mixed with words such as auction and Tianbao Tower.
Ji Ke listened for a while and got a general idea.
She showed an interesting expression and said to Ji Tianxing: "Brother Tianxing, I heard that there will be an auction at Tianbao Tower in the city tonight. This is an annual event."
"The reason why the city is so lively tonight is probably because of this auction. Let's go and have a look, too?"
Ji Tianxing frowned slightly, shook his head with a chuckle and said, "Keke, let's not join in the fun."
"When we were in the Imperial City, we witnessed many auction events. This Fengyang City is far less prosperous than the Imperial City. It's just an auction. It's okay not to watch it."
Although Ji Ke had some yearning in her heart, seeing that Ji Tianxing disagreed, she could only purse her lips and said bitterly: "Okay, listen to brother Tianxing."
While the two were talking, a handsome young man at the next table kept listening to their conversation with a smile.
This young man in a blue robe is about the same age as Ji Tianxing. He has a tall and tall figure, a handsome face, and a majestic appearance.
There were two middle-aged warriors standing beside the table, obviously his bodyguards.
After hearing what Ji Tianxing said, the young man in blue robe smiled slightly and said to Ji Tianxing: "What this brother said is wrong. Brother, you don't know something. This Fengyang City is the only place where the three surrounding countries enter the Hengchuan Kingdom.
It is also an important place for merchants to trade.”
"Tianbao Tower is a large business house with industries spread all over the three surrounding countries. The auction held every year is a top event for the three surrounding countries. Otherwise, Fengyang City would not have gathered so many merchants and warriors tonight."
Ji Tianxing raised his eyebrows, stared at the blue-robed boy, and listened to him quietly without interrupting.
Ji Ke's beautiful eyes once again filled with yearning, and she was obviously moved.
Seeing this scene, the young man in blue robe got up and sat down at Ji Tianxing's table. He lowered his voice and said, "Brother, all kinds of priceless treasures will appear in all auctions. Most of them are treasures of heaven and earth that warriors dream of."
"In tonight's auction, it is said that Tianbao Tower will also bring out a rare and rare treasure for auction, which is a Ten Thousand Spirits Jade Pillow!"
"People who suffer from serious diseases or yin and yang disorders can be cured by this product. Women who sleep on this jade pillow can stay young and beautiful forever."
"Even if warriors use this object to practice, they will get twice the result with half the effort and quickly increase their strength... In short, this treasure has an extraordinary origin and has miraculous effects."
Hearing the words eternal youth and beautiful appearance, Ji Ke's eyes suddenly shone with crystal light, and she couldn't wait to see them.
Ji Tianxing still looked calm and looked at the blue-robed boy with a scrutinizing look in his eyes.
A stranger who had never met him took the initiative to introduce the Tianbao Tower auction to him and described it in a very alluring way.
He had to be vigilant and suspicious, could this strange young man in blue robe be the sitter of Tianbao Tower?
The young man in blue robe obviously also noticed Ji Tianxing's suspicion. He was not embarrassed at all and still had a hearty smile on his face.
He bowed to Ji Tianxing and Ji Ke and announced his family status: "This brother, this lady, I am Nie Hao, the direct grandson of Marshal Mao Rongguo Qiankun."
When he mentioned his grandfather, Marshal Qiankun, pride naturally appeared on his face.
Ji Tianxing understood immediately, smiled kindly at Nie Hao, raised his hands and said in return: "It turns out he is the direct grandson of Marshal Qiankun, disrespectful."
Marshal Qiankun's name is Nie Qiankun. He is the military marshal of Mao Rongguo and the country's number one general.
The royal family of Mao Rongguo was weak and the emperor was fatuous and incompetent, but Marshal Qiankun was the mainstay of Mao Rongguo and was deeply respected by the people of the country.
Marshal Qiankun fought all his life, with brilliant achievements and few defeats. It was his iron-blooded army that protected Mao Rongguo for hundreds of years and made surrounding countries fearful.
Although there are many conflicts between Qingyun Kingdom and Mao Rongguo, the people of Qingyun Kingdom still respect Marshal Qiankun.
When Ji Tianxing saw that Nie Hao had extraordinary bearing and was upright in his words and deeds, with the demeanor of a descendant of a general, his doubts were naturally dispelled.
He exchanged pleasantries with Nie Hao, exchanged names, and then made a gesture of invitation, asking Nie Hao to sit down and talk.
After Nie Hao sat down, he asked: "Brother Nie, I would like to ask, how do you know so much about the Tianbao Tower auction?"
Nie Hao didn't hide anything. He smiled self-deprecatingly and said in a low tone: "To be honest, I passed by Fengyang City this time and stayed there for two days just to wait for this auction."
"My father has been fighting on the battlefield all year round to defend the territory. He suffered injuries that will never heal, and he will die soon."
"I inquired about the news and learned that the Ten Thousand Spirits Jade Pillow to be auctioned by Tianbao Tower can alleviate my father's injuries and help my father live a few more years, so I made a special trip to buy the Ten Thousand Spirits Jade Pillow."
