The Eternal Beauty of the City of Wealth

Duke Ling of Qi was very pleased after receiving Zixuan's report.

It seems that City Lord Zixuan is really obedient and reports everything to him for decision. That's very good. A Confucian scholar can be taught.

He immediately wrote back to Zixuan: "I have seen the report. I will not participate in the alliance in the land of Wu."

"City Lord Zixuan, don't go there either. Just focus on governing your fiefdom."

When Zixuan saw King Qi's attitude, he began to admire him a little.

It seems that this little old man still has some backbone.

At the meeting in Wudi, the absence of Duke Ling of Qi and City Lord Zixuan affected the strategic deployment of Jin to a certain extent.

In the end, Jin and Chu reached some kind of agreement on the issue of Chen, but the specific details and results were not made public.

This time, it was because Duke Ling of Qi and City Lord Zixuan refused to join.

This also planted the seeds of resentment deeply in the hearts of Jin State and the rulers of the various vassal states participating in the alliance.

In the summer of the same year, due to the wars for hegemony among the vassal states and natural disasters in various countries.

This resulted in a large number of refugees fleeing famine pouring into Fugui City like a tide.

In an instant, Fugui City became a refuge for people and a paradise on earth that people longed to reach day and night.

In just a few months, Zixuan took in nearly one million refugees fleeing famine.

She welcomes all refugees who want to settle down in the wealthy city.

Zixuan knew that there were many factories, land, mines, etc. in the city that could provide them with a variety of jobs.

After arriving in Fugui City, these refugees saw that they were really living a good life, so they wrote letters to their relatives, friends, and neighbors.

They talked about how great Fugui City was and how prosperous the people here lived.

In a short time, Fugui City became famous throughout the continent. People spread the word and traveled together.

There were even entire villages that moved away and flocked to Fugui City.

Zixuan stood on the tall city wall of Fugui City, looking at the refugees who were still walking into the city from below the wall. He felt so happy.

If I could rely on this strong city wall to protect these suffering people, it would be such a great act of kindness.

This was her favorite thing to do in her previous life and this life.

She felt even happier at this moment than when she inherited the title.

She wants to take in lots and lots of refugees, preferably 10 million... no... 20 million, haha, I'm so happy, so happy, so happy...

Just as he was admiring the beauty, he suddenly saw a boy of about fifteen or sixteen lying unconscious on the ground beside the moat.

Immediately, people nearby gathered around curiously and started talking about it.

Zixuan was shocked and hurriedly took the elevator down the city wall and ran quickly to the side of the young man.

Zi Chi also quickly led the guards to follow.

Zixuan came to the young man, squatted down, touched his forehead, and flipped his eyelids.

The child's forehead is so hot and his face is red.

She felt her pulse again and found that her heartbeat was still a little weak. It must be a temporary shock caused by the fever.

She immediately ordered the guards to help the young man up to the city wall.

The guards agreed and hurriedly carried the young man to the lounge on the city wall.

Zixuan immediately notified the boss and quickly found a few doctors to wait in the medical room.

After the boy was carried to the bed in the lounge, Zixuan drove everyone out.

She used her mind to transport the boy to the medical room in the space.

Several doctors and medical staff were already waiting there. When they saw Zixuan transfer the person in, they immediately provided treatment to the young man.

Zixuan returned to his villa and waited patiently for the rescue results.

Ji Shiyi peeled a big apple and handed it to her.

Zixuan also felt that his mouth was tasteless, so he took the apple and started to chew it.

Half an hour later, the attending doctor came in.

After paying his respects, he said to her, "Your Majesty, this young man has a severe cold that has caused lung inflammation, leading to a fever and temporary shock."

"We have now conducted a comprehensive examination on him and all his organs are normal."

"It's just a little skin injury, probably from when I fainted."

"We have given him the right medicine now. He will probably wake up in about half an hour."

"Okay, got it," Zixuan waved his hand.

After the doctor left, she moved the boy out of the space again and placed him on the bed in the lounge.

Half an hour later, the boy slowly opened his eyes and looked around with a puzzled look.

When he saw Zixuan, he asked in surprise: "Miss, who are you and where are you?"

Seeing that he was awake, Zixuan immediately asked Zichi to pour a glass of boiled water for the young man: "Little brother, this is the lounge of the tower of Fugui City. I am Zixuan, the lord of Fugui City."

Ah! The young man was shocked when he heard this and was about to get up and salute Zixuan.

But Zixuan pressed her down on the bed: "Don't move. You just woke up and your body is still very weak. It's not suitable for you to walk around."

At this time, the young man also felt dizzy and weak in his limbs.

So he said embarrassedly: "Your Majesty, I am so worthy of your personal care."

Zixuan smiled lightly: "It's okay, where are you from, what's your name, Hui, and how old are you?"

The young man smiled slightly, a hint of red appearing on his pale face. "Your Majesty, my surname is Kong, my given name is Qiu, and my courtesy name is Zhongni. I am from Zouyi, Lu State, and I am sixteen years old this year."

"What? You, you are Confucius!"

Zixuan screamed immediately after hearing this and shouted without thinking.

The sage smiled bleakly: "Your Majesty, you are praising me highly. I am just a scholar in Zouyi City. How can I be called a sage?"

Zixuan calmed himself down and then remembered that Confucius was still a teenager and had not yet become famous, so it was a bit early to call him a sage.

So, she touched her nose awkwardly and said, "Well, that, Zhongni, I just made a mistake, please don't mind it."

The sage gave a bitter laugh and said, "Your Majesty, what are you talking about? You saved Confucius' life. How dare you take such a statement seriously?"

"Very good, as long as Zhongni doesn't mind. May I know why you came to my wealthy city?"

When the sage heard Zixuan ask him this question, the bitterness on his face became even more intense.

He sighed and said slowly, "Alas, my king, it is because of the continuous heavy rain in Zouyi that has caused flooding. Most of the fertile fields have been submerged and houses have collapsed."

"Zhongni's family was not spared either. The flood came suddenly, and my family and I were anxious to escape, so we lost contact."

"While fleeing, I heard people talking about the city of wealth and honor. Out of curiosity, I followed the passersby and came to your city of wealth and honor."

"Because he was drenched by the heavy rain and blown by the cold wind, Confucius caught a cold."

“I didn’t have enough money with me when I fled my home, so I couldn’t get medical treatment.”

"So his illness worsened, and he fainted by the moat, only to be rescued by the king."
