The Eternal Beauty of the City of Wealth

Chuju saw Zixuan get out of the car and quickly rushed over: "Sister Xuan! Sister Xuan!"

Zixuan picked up the little Jinggong who rushed towards him and said, "Slow down, don't fall!"

The ministers hurried forward and bowed deeply and respectfully: "We welcome the triumphant return of City Lord Zixuan..."

Zixuan smiled and said, "No need to be so polite, my lords. Please stand up!"

Yan Ying and Sima Rangchu hurried to the front of Duke Jing of Qi and bowed, saying, "Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you!"

Little Duke Jing waved in Zixuan's arms and said, "My two beloved ministers, please stand up!"

"Hurry up and order the army to enter the city. I have prepared fine wine and delicious food. Reward the troops immediately!"

Yes! Yes! After receiving the order, the two immediately led the army towards Linzi.

Zixuan carried the pestle and mortar into his carriage and took out a lot of snacks for him from the space.

When Chuju saw so many delicious foods, his eyes immediately narrowed into slits.

He picked up a jelly bag, opened it, and swallowed it with a slurp.

While chewing, he said to Zixuan: "Sister Xuan, I haven't eaten these for a long time."

"Oh? Have you finished the two carts of food that Sister Xuan gave you last time?"

"Yeah! Sister Xuan, it's been two years and we've already eaten it!"

"Well, now that you're done eating, I'll leave two more carts for you when I leave."

Really! After hearing this, Chuju happily hugged Zixuan's face and kissed him several times.

Zijin and Zizhi hurriedly pulled him away and said in mock anger, "Little King! That's my mother, you are not allowed to kiss her!"

When Chuju saw someone trying to snatch Sister Xuan from him, he immediately hugged Zixuan's neck.

And he said arrogantly: "She is still my sister Xuan. You are not allowed to compete with me for her!"

Bo Yuan and others couldn't help laughing when they saw the cute look of little King Jing.

Everyone talked and laughed along the way, and soon they entered Linzi City and came to Wu Palace.

As soon as he entered the palace, he saw a group of gorgeous palace maids surrounding a noble lady who came to Zixuan.

Chuju quickly introduced Zixuan: "Sister Xuan, this is my mother!"

Zixuan looked up and saw that Mu Mengji had delicate features and was dignified and elegant.

It looks very elegant, especially those two single phoenix eyes are bright and lively.

She hurried forward and bowed deeply: "Your Majesty, Zixuan, pays homage to the Queen Mother!"

Mu Meng quickly supported him with his hand and said, "My dear, please stand up quickly. You must have been exhausted from the journey these past few days. Come to the palace immediately!"

At this time, a middle-aged man in his fifties walked up to Zixuan, bowed deeply and said, "City Lord Zixuan!"

"Let me introduce myself. I am Chuju's maternal grandfather, Shusun Jiaoru."

"This time, thanks to the help of City Lord Zixuan, we were able to save Da Qi from danger. Please accept my humble respect!"

When Zixuan heard that this person was Mu Mengji's father, he immediately took his hand and said, "I have long admired your great reputation, Lord Shusun. Please stand up without further ceremony!"

The two chatted for a few more words and were then surrounded by the crowd and walked towards the dining hall.

Although the banquet was not as sumptuous as that in Fugui City, it was still the best in Qi State.

So everyone ate and talked about what happened on the battlefield.

When Shusun Jiaoru heard Yan Ying say that his younger brother Shusun Bao was also joining the other vassal states in attacking Qi, he immediately became furious.

He slammed his big hand on the table, pointed in the direction of Lu Guo and cursed: "Leopard, you bastard!"

"How can you be so confused! Don't you know that Qi is the kingdom of your brother's grandson?"

"They actually colluded with the other princes and attacked us together! This is really infuriating!"

Mu Meng hurried to persuade him: "Father, my uncle is also following orders. It is difficult to disobey the king's orders."

"Now that Great Qi has the protection of City Lord Zixuan, and we have defeated the coalition forces this time, I'm sure they will never dare to attack us again."

After hearing what her daughter said, Shusun Jiaoru's anger subsided a little. "Hmph! When I see him, I will not let him off easily!"

After the banquet, Zixuan and his mother and son were left to live in the palace.

The next day after breakfast, Mu Meng brought the pestle and mortar to Zixuan.

Both mother and son knelt on the ground and kowtowed three times.

Zixuan was startled and quickly supported him with his hands: "Your Majesty! Queen Mother! What are you doing? You are killing me. Please get up quickly!"

Mu Meng did not stand up. She grabbed Zixuan's hand and said excitedly, "My dear."

"This time you saved Qi, saved the Jiang royal family, and saved my mother and me!"

"This tribute is insignificant, my dear, you deserve it."

Zixuan also knelt on the ground and said humbly: "Queen Mother, your words are too kind. Zixuan is originally a minister of Qi."

"Protecting our home and our country, and sharing our king's worries, is my humble duty. How can I accept such a grand gesture from the Queen Mother and the King?"

Mu Meng was so moved by Zixuan's words that tears welled up in his eyes: "My dear, you are wrong."

"If it were someone else, and their country was destroyed by the Great Qi, they would wish that my mother and I would be killed by the princes immediately to relieve their hatred."

"You are so magnanimous that you have put aside past grudges and saved Da Qi from danger. How can I, mother and son, ever repay you for this great kindness?"

Zixuan smiled and said, "Don't say that, Queen Mother. What happened to our fathers is over."

"I help Qi State out of respect and admiration for the old man Taigong."

"Secondly, I am grateful to Duke Huanling of Qi for not exterminating the Zi clan and for preserving this drop of my bloodline."

"Third, because I had sworn brotherhood with Duke Zhuang, Jiang Guang."

"The debt he owed back then had to be paid off by his elder sister, me. It was worth it for us to be siblings."

"Fourthly, King Chuju and I are also destined to be siblings. I can't just sit there and watch my brother being bullied and do nothing."

"Besides, helping Qi is also helping myself. If Qi is destroyed, my Fugui City will not be better off either."

"Your Majesty, Queen Mother, do you think what Zixuan said makes sense?"

Mu Meng nodded repeatedly after hearing this: "Yes, yes! My dear, you are truly a gentleman!"

Little Jing Gong also nodded as if he understood, "Sister Xuan, you are so kind!"

The next day, Zixuan gave each soldier another 500 knife coins.

Just like the last time in Yan State, we have a ten-day holiday. We can eat and play as much as we want, but we are not allowed to cause trouble. Anyone who dares to disobey will be dealt with by military law.

When the soldiers heard that there was another bounty, they immediately cheered and threw Zixuan into the air again, eating, drinking and having fun as they did last time.

During these ten days, Zixuan Boyuan and his three children played all over Linzi City.

Especially Zijin and Zizhi, it was their first time to leave Fugui City.

I am full of freshness about everything in the outside world.

People on the street couldn't help but praise the family's good looks.

Wow! Look at how she looks, with her looks, skin, and figure, she's like a fairy descending to earth...

Yes, yes! Whose children are these? Why have I never seen them before?

Mm-hmm! Long Qi was the one walking in front. With that kind of aura, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say she was the queen of any country...

Hey, brothers, I heard that the City Lord Zixuan of Fugui City is in our Linzi City. Maybe this person is...
