Song Qingci and Shan Li stood on the city wall and watched the large army leave.

Not only soldiers but also many craftsmen from all walks of life came together this time.

Especially farmers who are good at planting and doctors who are good at making medicine.

Nanyue is not completely unsuitable for cultivation. Experienced farmers are good at overcoming various difficulties.

Moreover, because of the geographical environment, the medicinal materials in Nanyue are better than those in Dachen.

However, there are few doctors who are good at making medicine.

This time we brought people in this field with us, and I believe that they will hear good responses soon.

"Aci, what did you just say to King Nanyue?"

Shan Li couldn't help himself after all and asked the question in his mind.

While he was explaining this to Shan Heng, he caught a glimpse of A Ci having a pleasant conversation with the new King of Nanyue.

However, due to the distance between them, he did not hear what they were talking about. He just looked at their expressions and felt that they must have said something good.

"Nothing much. I just told her that as long as she can sort out Nanyue's internal affairs within two years and find a suitable place to build a market, then the trade can also be opened in Nanyue."

As the new King of Nanyue, Duan Xinghe's road ahead will not be easy.

This time when she goes back, she will have to pay a lot.

The basis of trade is stable living conditions, so Song Qingci gave her two years.

Now that she has been given the opportunity, it depends on herself what she can achieve.

With Duan Xinghe's departure, the rumors that were originally rampant in the capital died down within a few days, as expected.

Even though we were talking passionately before, there is no need to continue now.

Soon, it was replaced by new gossip.

Now the latest gossip is that the emperor in the palace is going to hold another beauty contest!

This is more exciting than the erotic rumors about foreign princesses. After all, those rumors can only be followed and hyped. They are of no benefit to oneself. But this talent show is different.

I heard that the scope of the beauty pageant has been relaxed this time.

Not only the women of officials who have reached the age but have not yet been engaged, but also the girls from good families with clean backgrounds, good looks, talents and good morals, can also participate in the selection as long as they have a guarantor to recommend them.

You are always the last to know gossip about yourself.

Even the emperor is no exception.

There was going to be a beauty contest in the palace, and he was the last one to know about it.

Li Jianguo stared at the woman in front of him, "What did you just say? I didn't hear it clearly!"

Queen Zhou felt her scalp tingling when she was stared at, but as the queen, there were some things she had to say and some things she had to do.

"According to convention, it is indeed the day of the selection. Your Majesty has suspended the selection twice before. If he were to stop it again this time, I'm afraid it would be unreasonable."

No woman likes to find a woman for her man, but they are suppressed by various rules and etiquette and have to do it.

Queen Zhou did not expect that such pressure would come from her own family.

Thinking of what her aunt said, she realized that what she thought was just what she thought.

The Zhou family's attitude towards her as the queen was really too ordinary.

Li Jianguo did not notice the subtle expression on Queen Zhou's face and sneered, "You are really my good queen!"

After saying this, he no longer looked at her and simply walked out of Kunning Palace.
