The Eternal Beauty of the City of Wealth

Chapter 266: Moving the Capital to Xiacai

After hearing this, Fist and Slap jumped up and down with joy: "Master, you are so kind! I love you so much!"

Seeing this, Zhen Meng hurriedly shouted, "Slow down the slap! You're still pregnant!"

The slapping stopped at this point: "Oh, I get it, Master!"

Ji Yan stood up and hugged Zi Xuan and said, "Dear Xuan."

"You're a wealthy woman now! Looks like I'll have to live off a rich man from now on!"

Zixuan kissed his pink lips gently: "My dear, you can come as you please."

"From now on, I will grant you endless glory and wealth."

Ji Yan was flattered: "Thank you, Your Majesty! Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Well, Zixuan let him go: "Now that we have collected all the gold, let's go back. If we are any later, the Queen Mother will be anxious."

"Okay, shall we still ride the tiger?"

"No need, I have the ability to teleport and will reach Shangcai City soon."

Great! Ji Yan hugged her again: "Xuan, you are so great!"

Zixuan touched his handsome face lovingly, and with a thought, he instantly returned to the villa in Shangcai City.

At this time, the queen was walking around the room anxiously, looking outside from time to time.

Seeing Zixuan and the other two coming back, he immediately came out to greet them: "Oh my Xuan'er!"

"Why did you take so long? Mother must be worried sick!"

Zixuan smiled and took his mother's arm: "Mother, isn't Xuan'er back now?"

"Oh, by the way, Xuan'er, Marquis Zhao just sent someone to say that once the young master has recovered, he should be allowed to return to the palace immediately."

"Didn't Lord Zhao say anything was wrong?"

"I didn't say it."

"Oh, Yanzi, you go back first. We'll go out and play together tomorrow."

"Okay, I'm leaving, Xuan. See you tomorrow. Bye!"

Bye! Zixuan blew him a kiss, and Ji Yan walked away reluctantly, looking back every few steps.

Seeing his brother coming back, Marquis Zhao said with a smile, "Yanzi, today He Qi's daughter He Fang came to see me."

"I said I was willing to get engaged to you again. This time you're finally getting married."

When Ji Yan heard about this, he immediately refused: "My brother, I don't like him, so let's forget about this marriage!"

"How can that be possible? Ever since you contracted the brain disease, the ministers' daughters have all stayed away from you. No one wants to marry you."

"I finally found someone willing to marry you, but you still don't agree. Are you going to be single for the rest of your life?"

Ji Yan rolled his eyes: "Who said I want to be single? I already have a girlfriend now!"

Ji Shen was delighted: "Really? Whose family is she from?"

"It's not a girl, it's an old lady."

Huh? Ji Shen looked at him in surprise: "Yanzi, is your brain disease acting up again? Why would a young man like an old lady?"

Ji Yan said mysteriously, "This old lady is extraordinary. She is the Marquis of Donglai and the Lord of Zixuan City in Fugui City!"

What? Ji Shen was surprised and delighted: "You like City Lord Zixuan?"

"Then, then would they be willing?"

"Of course I am willing. Have you forgotten that I am the one and only handsome man in the Great Cai Kingdom?"

Ji Shen nodded repeatedly: "This is the truth. If we really marry the Lord of Zixuan City, our State of Cai will no longer be afraid of invasions by other princes!"

Ji Yan laughed evilly: "It's not if, it's already!"

"Zixuan and I have already had physical contact, she is mine now!"

"Zixuan promised to take me back to Fugui City. Soon my brother will be the Queen! Hahahaha..."

Ji Shen was also very happy after hearing this: "Okay, okay, after you become the king, don't forget the State of Cai and your brother!"

"If the princes attack and the State of Cai is in trouble, remember to ask City Lord Zixuan for help!"

"Of course. Don't worry, brother Wang. If the Cai Kingdom is in trouble, I will definitely not sit idly by."

"Oh, by the way, my prince, the prince has been in close contact with the ministers recently, so you have to be more careful."

"I'm afraid that if those ministers instigate the prince to rebel, you will be in great trouble."

"If he dares, I will definitely not show mercy if that day ever comes. I will kill him!"

Two days later, Prince Shuo received a report that Jinshan had collapsed, and He Qi and five hundred servants all fell into a deep pit and disappeared.

Upon hearing this news, the prince collapsed to the ground, muttering to himself, "It's over! All my hard work was in vain!"

The next day, Ji Shen hosted a banquet in the palace for Zixuan to drink. At the table, he asked Zixuan:

"City Lord Zixuan, do you have an answer to the question I asked you?"

Zixuan replied, "As a king, you must act decisively and not hesitate."

"If you want to move the capital, then move it. If you don't want to move it, then don't move it. You must not let the ministers control you."

"If that's the case, then you, the king, are nothing more than a decoration."

Ji Shen nodded heavily: "City Lord Zixuan's words make sense. I have made up my mind to move the capital to Xiacai."

"I have a favor to ask of City Lord Zixuan. Could you please wait until I move the capital before leaving?"

"With you in charge, I am not afraid of those ministers causing trouble."

Zixuan thought for a moment and said, "Well, you are Yanzi's brother, after all. I will help you this time."

Ji Shen hurriedly stood up and bowed deeply: "Thank you, City Lord Zixuan!"

The next morning at court, Ji Shen issued the order to move the capital to all ministers.

The ministers were very angry after hearing this. Although they did not dare to say anything in the court, they all ran to the prince's residence after the court was dismissed.

"Your Highness, the King insists on moving the capital. Why don't we start the rebellion now?"

Ji Shuo shook his head: "It's not the right time yet. I heard that Wang Shuyan and Zixuan have already arranged marriage."

"If we start a rebellion now, Zixuan will definitely help us. Don't try to steal the chicken but end up losing the rice."

"It's not too late to take action after Zixuan leaves!"

The ministers nodded. They all knew how powerful Zixuan was, and no one dared to take the risk.

So Ji Shen moved the capital to Xiacai City with great fanfare.

A month later, the capital was moved, and Zixuan was relieved to see that no rebellion had occurred.

He then said goodbye to Ji Shen and prepared to go to Xu State as his next stop. Ji Shen tried hard to keep him, but Zixuan was determined to leave.

Ji Shen had no choice but to send Zixuan ten miles out of Xiacai City before returning.

Since the capital was moved to Xialai City, the conflicts between Marquis Zhao and his ministers have been escalating.

The rebellion finally broke out a few years later, and with the tacit approval of Crown Prince Shuo, the ministers launched a palace coup.

On a rainy night, they led their army into the palace.

Ji Shen was awakened from his sleep and tried to escape but it was too late.

The ministers rushed into the palace and killed Ji Shen with a flurry of swords, ending his life.

He then supported Crown Prince Shuo to ascend the throne and became the new King of Cai.

After Zixuan led a group of people to leave Cai State, they originally planned to go to Xu State, but Ji Yan suggested that she go to Wu State.

Because Wu State was very close to Xiacai City, Zixuan accepted his suggestion and slowly walked towards Wu State.

At this time, King Fuchai of Wu was fighting a decisive battle with the Yue army in Fuju City in order to avenge his father.
