Chapter 426 The Strength of Baise City
A hint of helplessness flashed in Qian Zexi's eyes. He had never seen anyone who looked down on the royal family.
Su Hanchu took the imperial edict handed over by Caiyue, opened it carefully and placed it in front of Jun Moye.
"Aye, I've already reviewed this imperial edict in the Imperial Court. Please review it again. I've already asked Master Qian to return so he can report back. It's a long and arduous journey, so let's not embarrass Master Qian."
Jun Moye looked at the contents of the imperial edict and sighed, with a touch of emotion in his tone.
"I didn't expect that the Emperor's uncle still cared about me, the son of a criminal. It's a pity for my body. Otherwise, I would definitely go to the Imperial City, even if it's just to pay my respects to the Emperor's uncle."
When Su Hanchu saw that he had finished reading, he took the imperial edict from his hand.
Caiyue took it and handed it to Qianzexi.
Qian Zexi hurriedly bowed to Jun Moye and spoke.
"Young Master Jun, the Emperor has been thinking about you these past few years and has always hoped that you would be well. Since Young Master Jun also cares about the Emperor, why don't you accept this imperial decree and return to the Imperial City with me? There are the best imperial physicians in the Imperial City, and I believe that the Emperor will definitely summon them to take care of Young Master Jun."
Jun Moye was about to say something when Su Hanchu held his hand and looked at Qian Zexi.
"Master Qian, my husband is from Baise City, so it would be inappropriate for him to accept the imperial edict from Emperor Tianyuan. If Emperor Tianyuan truly misses his nephew, then this would be considered a marriage between Baise City and Tianyuan."
Then he looked as if he was thinking about it.
"I remember that Emperor Tianyuan's birthday is in March, which is the end of the year. Why don't you go back and tell Emperor Tianyuan that I would like to receive the same invitation as the Great Yan Jiang Kingdom?"
This is to be on an equal footing with the big countries. Bai Secheng is so arrogant, Qian Zexi said in a deep voice.
"The Lord City Lord is different from everyone I've met. He's able to stand on equal footing with the emperors of the three great nations. I sincerely admire the Lord City Lord's courage."
Su Hanchu smiled slightly when he heard this.
"I think Lord Qian is praising me. If I don't have enough courage, how can I support the ambition of being the lord of this city? What's more, I was lost many years ago and finally returned to my biological father. My father naturally doted on me. He gave me 100,000 Black Armored Army, over 100,000 White Se Army, countless wealth, and the White Se City, which is as large as three cities in a large country. If Lord Qian had such a father, I believe he would be very courageous too."
Upon hearing this, Qian Zexi had no choice but to speak.
"I really can't envy the blessing that the City Lord has."
Su Hanchu smiled and spoke when he heard this.
"Master Qian, please take your time to think about what I said. I have already had the food prepared as a welcome treat for you. Please go to Changle Palace first. I will help A Ye change his clothes and then come back."
Seeing this, Caiyue handed over the imperial edict again and made a gesture of invitation.
"Master Qian, I will lead the way for you. I have also arranged for the escorts you brought with you to be entertained."
Upon hearing this, Qian Zexi had no choice but to put the imperial edict away again and leave with Caiyue.
Seeing Qian Zexi leave, Jun Moye also restrained his weak look.
"Chu Chu, I guess Lord Qian is very angry with us."
Upon hearing this, Su Hanchu stood up to get him a set of clothes and spoke.
"He's already angry, so he'll have a lot to be angry about later. This is just the beginning, Ah Ye, we've been preparing for so many years, lying dormant again and again, isn't it just so that we can be glorious when we return to that place?"
Jun Moye stood up.
"Madam is right. Madam is smart enough to ask for an invitation from Emperor Tianyuan."
Su Hanchu handed him his clothes.
"This is not just a small invitation, but an invitation identical to the one from Dayan, the Kingdom of Jiang. When we arrive at the Imperial City of Tianyuan, the treatment we will receive will be completely different."
Qian Zexi, who followed Caiyue to Changle Palace, began to inquire with Caiyue with a gentle smile.
"Miss Caiyue, I just heard from the City Lord that Baise City has 100,000 Black Armored Soldiers and 100,000 White Armored Soldiers. The expenses for raising 200,000 troops are not small. The City Lord is really impressive for being able to support 200,000 troops."
Caiyue had a proud expression on her face when she heard that.
"Our City Lord is the most powerful person Caiyue has ever seen in her life. The 100,000 Black Armored Army was handed over to the City Lord by the old City Lord, but the 100,000 White Seer Army was established by the City Lord himself.
As for supporting these soldiers, the old city lord left some property to the city lord, and the city lord himself also has some property. At present, it is no problem to support another 200,000 soldiers. Moreover, the treatment of our Baise City soldiers is based on the standards of soldiers from great powers. Oh, and they will also have an extra set of cotton clothes for winter.
Upon hearing this, Qian Zexi couldn't help but marvel in his heart. In such a short period of time, Baise City has developed into this state.
In the imperial palace of Tianyuan Imperial City.
Hall of Longevity.
The Queen Mother watched Ningshuang taking care of Zhaixinghua from a distance.
"Looks a lot like her, doesn't it? Even the way she waters the flowers looks like my Wenhua."
Nanny Xue looked at Ning Shuang who was busy.
"Yes, she does. I watched Princess Wenhua grow up, and this girl does look a bit like her. Empress Dowager, if you like her, why not ask her to serve you personally?"
The Queen Mother looked at Ning Shuang upon hearing this.
"Has her identity been ascertained?"
Upon hearing this, Nanny Xue smiled and spoke.
"I have checked, and my background is clean, but I entered the palace late."
The Queen Mother smiled when she heard this and then walked towards Ning Shuang. Seeing this, Nanny Xue immediately went up to support her.
The Queen Mother always missed Princess Wenhua, and now there was someone who looked somewhat similar to her in front of her, which was a kind of comfort.
After Ning Shuang finished her work, she looked at Zhaixinghua with satisfaction. When she turned around, she saw the Queen Mother and Xue Moumou standing behind her, and she saluted hurriedly.
"This servant greets the Empress Dowager. May the Empress Dowager be in good health."
The Queen Mother had a smile on her face and personally stepped forward, bent down and helped her up.
"Come on, get up first."
Then he looked at Ning Shuang's face. The more he looked, the more his smile became. She really looked like his own Wenhua. It must be that God saw that he had missed Wenhua for too long, so he sent someone so similar to him to be by his side.
Ning Shuang felt a little nervous when the Queen Mother looked at her.
"Your Majesty, is there something wrong with this servant's face?"
Upon hearing this, the Queen Mother reached out and stroked Ning Shuang's face.
"Ningshuang, how about serving me personally from now on?"
Upon hearing this, Ning Shuang hurriedly knelt down and saluted with a look of gratitude.
"Your servant thanks the Empress Dowager."
The Queen Mother reached out and pulled her up.
"Madam Xue, take Ning Shuang for a tour of the Changshou Palace so everyone can recognize her. From now on, Ling Shuang will be my chief palace maid."
White City.
After Qian Zexi had a meal with Su Hanchu and Jun Moye, Su Hanchu arranged for them to go to the inn to rest.
At this time, he was playing chess with Jun Moye.
Suddenly looking at the board full of chess pieces, Su Hanchu remembered something.
"Cai Yue."
