The Eternal Beauty of the City of Wealth

So he ordered the defenders in Gaotang to have a good rest at night and prepare for the general attack.

After Zhuichao and Gongluhui returned home, they immediately opened the note.

What was written above was that Zixuan ordered them to arrange an insider in the city, and to carry a rope down the city at midnight tonight.

Go to the King of Qi's tent to report the military deployment in the city and arrange a defense plan.

After reading it, the two took immediate action, each finding their trusted friends and explaining to them the current interests of Gaotang City.

At this time, these soldiers were also worried about their future.

Today on the city wall, I saw that Duke Zhuang of Qi's words and actions showed no intention of negotiating peace.

If the city is captured, they will become real rebels.

Although he followed Fengshawei, he never thought of rebelling and harming the country.

So, they agreed to help Zhuichao and Gongluo as traitors in order to make up for their mistake.

At 11 o'clock in the evening, Zhuichao and Gongluhui lowered ropes from the city wall and secretly came to the Qi army camp.

When the two men met Duke Zhuang of Qi and Zixuan, they handed them the city defense map.

He also said that personnel had been arranged in the city and action could be taken at midnight.

Under the guidance of Zhichuo and Gongluhui, Zixuan and Duke Zhuang of Qi made corresponding arrangements for the defensive fortifications in the city.

As soon as midnight arrived, Zhuichao and Gongluhui led Zixuan's 30,000 troops and quietly approached the city wall.

Using advanced rock climbing equipment, we easily climbed up the city wall.

At the same time, the insiders in the city quietly opened the city gate and let the Qi army in.

Fengshawei and his soldiers were captured while they were still asleep.

The soldiers knew that the situation was hopeless and did not put up much resistance.

Feng Shawei originally wanted to end his life with a spectacular battle.

Unexpectedly, I was betrayed by my subordinates. Well, that's it, I have to accept my fate.

Fengshawei was brought before Duke Zhuang of Qi. He looked at Jiang Guang and asked, "Your Majesty, will you spare this humble servant?"

Duke Zhuang of Qi looked at him with disdain and sneered, "You are a eunuch, a rootless person! What's the point of asking for your life?"

"Your Majesty! If I wanted to kill you today, it would be as easy as taking something out of a bag. Yan Youer is in great glory now!"

"Haha! Who told you not to kill me? I didn't ask you to let me go!"

"You are clearly taking advantage of the situation and hoping that I will spare your life at this moment! Humph, what a daydream!"

"I'm asking you! Was it your idea to dethrone me as Crown Prince?"

Seeing that there was no hope of survival, Feng Shawei simply stopped being afraid. He thought that he would die anyway, so he might as well let the moment come sooner.

So, he raised his head and chest and cursed loudly: "Jiang Guang, you villain! The idea was mine! What can you do to me! Hahahaha..."

Upon hearing this, Duke Zhuang of Qi flew into a rage: "Come here! Chop that traitor Fengshawei into pulp!"

“Yes! Yes!” the soldiers agreed, raised their weapons, and attacked Fengshawei.

A quarter of an hour later, Feng Shawei's tall body immediately turned into a pile of meat paste and was piled in front of Jiang Guang.

Duke Zhuang of Qi looked at the meat paste of Feng Shawei, and his stomach churned. He vomited out of nausea.

The reason why Fengshawei had such a tragic ending was because of his identity as a eunuch.

Who would be willing to follow a person who has no descendants? Following such a person will only make your future hopeless.

Zixuan had just finished explaining the matter to Zhichuo and Gongluhui when he heard that Fengshawei had been captured, so he hurried to Jiang Guang's tent.

When he saw the pile of meat paste on the ground, he vomited in disgust.

After the army rested in Gaotang City for two days, Duke Zhuang of Qi prepared to return to the capital.

He listened to Zixuan's advice and appointed Zhichuo as the governor of Gaotang County and Gongluhui as the garrison commander.

He also rewarded the two with a generous bonus and beautiful dancers and concubines, and then led the army back to Linzi.

After Duke Zhuang of Qi returned to Linzi, he ordered people to comfort the families of the deceased and gave the accompanying soldiers three days off.

Zixuan and Boyuan spent two more days sightseeing in Linzi. Seeing that there was nothing left for them to do, they prepared to return to Fugui City.

Before leaving, she warned Duke Zhuang of Qi: "Brother Guang, don't be too fond of Cui Zhu."

"I don't think this man is a loyal and righteous person. You should be more careful in the future."

Duke Zhuang of Qi smiled faintly and said, "Don't worry, sister. I know what's going on."

The two of them exchanged a few words of concern and then reluctantly parted ways.

Since Duke Zhuang of Qi put down the rebellions of Gao Hou and Fengsha Wei, he took the initiative to establish good relations with the State of Jin.

Thus, after years of fighting, the two countries temporarily put aside their hostility and reconciled.

Time flies, and fourteen years have passed in the blink of an eye.

By 548 BC, Zixuan's wealthy city had become famous throughout the world, and the kings, ministers, and wealthy people of various vassal states all rented houses in her city.

Zixuan's female robot has given birth to nearly a hundred children for her.

She was very happy and proud. How could she not be happy when she was about to become the battalion commander?

Zixu is also eighteen years old and has grown into a handsome young man. He looks not much different from Boyuan.

Zijin, Zizhi, Ziyu and Ziye are also fifteen or sixteen years old. They are all as beautiful as flowers.

Each of the concubines in the harem adopted a child of Zixuan. They loved these children very much and treated them as their own.

After the court meeting was over that morning, Zixuan was just about to go back to the bedroom to rest when Boyuan came to her with a sad face.

Seeing that he looked unhappy, Zixuan asked with concern, "What's wrong, Queen? Are you feeling unwell?"

Bo Yuan immediately hugged her shoulders and began to sob: "Xuan'er, grandpa, he passed away? Wuuwuwu..."

Zixuan was stunned. He knew that Boqu had been in poor health in recent years, but he didn't expect that he would pass away so soon.

She patted Bo Yuan's shoulder and said comfortingly, "Don't be sad. My dear old Lord Bo is already over eighty years old. It can be considered that he has passed away at a ripe old age."

"I will give you a two-week vacation. Go back and help your father take care of your grandfather's funeral."

Bo Yuan wiped his tears and stopped crying: "Thank you, Xuan'er, I will leave the palace immediately."

"Let Xu'er go with you, and let him see Grandfather off as well."

Bo Yuan nodded repeatedly: "Okay! I'll go find Xu'er right away."

Zixuan looked at Boyuan, whose temples were a little gray, and shook his head with heartache.

As soon as I reached the bedroom, Zijin rushed in and yelled, "Mom! Let's go play badminton with Jiner!"

Zixuan rolled his eyes at her and said, "Jin'er, you're already such a grown-up girl, but you're not steady at all!"

"You act like a wild boy all day long. How can you ever get married? Which gentleman would dare to marry you?"

"Mother, who said I'm getting married? Jin'er will never marry and will stay with you forever."

After Zi Jin finished speaking, he threw himself into his mother's arms and started to act coquettishly.

Zixuan hugged his daughter lovingly: "Okay, okay, Jin'er, whatever you want, mother will do as you wish."
