The Eternal Beauty of the City of Wealth

Ji Xiang was so beautiful that she thought, this time it works. So she bowed again and said, "Mother."

"Ji Xiang is very fond of Gongzi Ri. I don't want you to punish him. I beg you to grant me marriage and let Gongzi Ri marry me."

Zixuan looked at his son and asked, "Are you willing?"

Zi Ri quickly waved his hands: "No, no, no! Ri'er doesn't agree!"

Zixuan looked at him doubtfully: "Why don't you agree? Tell me your reasons."

"Mother, I think, I think marrying the princess is unfair to Peng Ruo."

Zixuan nodded and thought to himself that his son was quite loyal and righteous.

She looked at Ji Xiang and said, "Princess Thirteen, you heard it too. Zi Ri doesn't agree. I cannot grant this marriage."

Ji Xiang was anxious, crawled two steps on her knees and said, "Mother, you are wrong. It has been normal for men to have three wives and four concubines since ancient times."

"Zi Riruo is willing to marry Ji Xiang, and Ji Xiang is willing to be Peng Ruo's equal wife, and serve the young master together."

This... Zixuan thought about it and decided that this was fine. If his son didn't marry the princess, she would have already given herself to him. How would he explain this to the child?

If I don't agree and something really happens, I will be sorry for the princess's family.

Thinking of this, she nodded and said, "Okay, in that case, I will grant you three marriages."

"However, you are still young now. You must wait until you are twenty years old before you can get married."

Ji Xiang was overjoyed after hearing this. She knelt on the ground, kowtowed and thanked loudly.

Zi Ri was dumbfounded this time. How would he explain to E'er after returning to Yan State? Sigh! This time, Ji Xiang had the upper hand!

The next day, Zixu and his party also bid farewell to Zixuan and prepared to return to Lu.

Zixuan did not try to persuade him to stay, because he knew that the child was grown up and would have his own ideals.

After giving her children a few more instructions, she watched them leave.

At this time, the eunuch came to report that Fan Yang wanted to see him. Zixuan was stunned. Why didn't Fan Yang come with his father?

After entering the hall, Fan Yang bowed deeply and said, "Your Majesty Zixuan, I have come here today mainly for three reasons."

"First, I bid you farewell. Tomorrow, my father and I will be returning to Jin."

"My father has caught a cold and is unable to come and say goodbye, so I'm sending someone else to do it for him."

"The second thing is, I think the off-road vehicles you have here are great, and I want to buy two."

"It just so happens that the distance between Jin State and Fugui City is quite far, so driving this car back will be much faster."

Zixuan shook his head after hearing this: "I'm sorry, General Fan!"

"All vehicles in Fugui City, including electronic products, are not allowed to leave the city."

"You can buy it if you really want, but it can only be used in this city and cannot be driven out of the city."

Fan Yang asked in confusion, "Why can't we drive out of the city?"

"Because cars are powered by electricity and gasoline, there's no point in me selling it to you."

"A car cannot start without electricity and gasoline, so it will just be a pile of scrap metal if you buy it."

Fan Yang suddenly realized: "Oh, I see, King Zixuan, Yang thinks Fugui City is very, very good."

"Can I buy a separate house in Fugui City? I want to live here when I get old. Do you think it's feasible?"

Zixuan shook his head again: "General Fan, it's not that I won't sell it to you."

"It's just that the real estate and land in Fugui City are all public property. They can only be rented and not bought or sold!"

"Public property? Are all the houses in Fugui City public property?"

Zixuan nodded "Yes!"

Fan Yang asked in confusion: "Then, isn't there a private house in Fugui City?"

"What about the private property of the former landlords and ministers?"

"All the land, houses, and minerals in Fugui City have been acquired by me."

"Acquisition? How much money would it cost to acquire such a huge and wealthy city?"

Zixuan chuckled: "Haha, I'm not short of money."

"General Fan, if you want to live in Fugui City, you might as well rent an apartment so you can buy a car and drive it."

Fan Yang thought for a moment and said, "Alright, I'll rent one then."

"King Zixuan, I have something else I want to discuss with you."

"Is the exclusive export rights for agricultural and sideline products I promised you a few days ago still valid?"

Zi nodded and said, "Of course it counts, but you haven't fulfilled the two conditions I proposed."

Fan Yang smiled slyly: "Lord Zixuan, I'm afraid my father won't agree to this."

"But I can do it. Once I rent a house, I'll let you stay there first. Then I'll send my trusted confidant back to Jin to kill my sister."

"After the contract is signed, I will return to Jin with food and other supplies. What do you think?"

Zixuan looked at Fan Yang with contempt and thought to himself, you are much more cruel than your father. You even dare to kill your own sister for the sake of profit.

But this is not bad either. A gentleman has the advantages of a gentleman, and a villain has the advantages of a villain. I will also take this opportunity to take advantage of the villain.

She immediately put on a smile and said, "Great! Since General Fan is willing to help, I am very happy."

"After this is accomplished, I will sign a contract with you, General. All future trade between Fugui City and the State of Jin will be handled solely by you, General."

Fan Yang was overjoyed after hearing this. He stood up and bowed deeply, saying, "Thank you, King Zixuan! Thank you so much!"

"In that case, I will take my leave and go to rent a house first, and then arrange the assassination of my sister."

Zixuan smiled and nodded: "General Fan, please do as you wish!"

After Fan Yang walked away, Zixuan snorted bitterly: "Bah! A greedy villain!"

The next day, Yan Ying came to the palace to pick up King Jing Chujiu, and also planned to leave Fugui City and return to Qi.

But Chuju refused to leave no matter what, so Yan Ying had no choice but to persuade him kindly: "Your Majesty, this Fugui City is great, but you can only stay temporarily and not for long."

"Our Qi Kingdom is still waiting for the king to govern the country. If you don't return, this great kingdom of Qi will be taken away by others."

Little Duke Jing refused to listen. He stiffened his neck and said, "I won't go back! Qi isn't as good as Fugui City, and it doesn't have all the delicious food and fun!"

"I don't want any bullshit kingdom. It's not fun at all."

"Since the Prime Minister says Qi is a good kingdom, I will leave it to you. How about you not let me go back?"

Yan Ying was at a loss whether to laugh or cry when he heard this. He bowed deeply and said, "Your Majesty, this cannot be done!"

"You are still young and don't know the pros and cons of this. Stop playing around and go back with me!"

After saying this, he winked at the servant behind him. The servant understood, stepped forward, picked up the pestle and mortar and left.

Chuju was so angry that he yelled, "Assholes! Let me go now, or I will kill you!"

The attendant didn't listen at all. No matter how the king fought and shouted, he just refused to let go.

Seeing that he couldn't scare them, Chuju quickly turned his attention to Zixuan.

He shouted at Zixuan: "Sister, save me! I don't want to go! I don't want to leave Sister Xuan! Wow wow wow..."

As he was talking, he suddenly burst into tears.
