The old marquis slapped the table and glared at Su Xiaoxiao with a look of disappointment: "Girl! How can you talk to the general? You always ask for money! Does the general have no gold? Who are you looking down on?!"
Qin Canglan said, "Calm down, calm down. You are already old, and you are talking about gold all the time. Are you obsessed with money? You have corrupted your children!"
The Northern Yan delegation wiped their sweat and thought, fortunately, there is someone who understands what is going on.
Qin Canglan continued, "Can the life of General Helian be measured by those material possessions? He can defeat thousands of troops alone. He is the guardian of the country of Northern Yan. He must be exchanged for a few cities at least!"
The Northern Yan delegation vomited blood.
Damn it!
Each one is darker than the other!
Your family is full of bandits and bullies!
The old marquis said, "Oh!" and sat back on the futon, very impressed: "I am too narrow-minded."
It is impossible to risk one's life, but if one loses, one loses. If one does not pay the price, Beiyan will appear to be a piece of shit. There are 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 levels of shame, and one cannot lose more than 5.
Wei Ting suggested at the right time: "Why not just make up for the half of the annual tribute that Beiyan didn't pay?"
That is also a considerable amount of money, almost the tax of most of the city.
But what could Beiyan say? He could only bite the bullet and give it.
They wanted to write an IOU again, but Su Xiaoxiao didn't buy it and looted the Beiyan delegation, even using Helian Ye's heirlooms as collateral.
If his clothes weren't worth much, he seriously suspected that the chubby girl in front of him would strip him of his underwear.
Su Xiaoxiao looked at the table full of food and said, "These are not enough."
Helian Ye, who was robbed and bankrupt, said coldly: "What else do you want?"
Su Xiaoxiao raised her eyebrows and said, "Give me a token that allows me to freely enter and leave Beiyan. Don't say you don't want to give it to me. If your life is not worth as much as a broken token, then you are really worthless!"
Helian Ye gritted his teeth, pulled down his general's mansion token and threw it to her!
Su Xiaoxiao was very satisfied.
She turned and looked at Emperor Jingxuan in the hall: "Since it is an annual tribute, then I will present it to Your Majesty!"
The old marquis said fiercely, "You are so stupid! What do you think of His Majesty? His Majesty is a wise ruler. How could he covet something won by a little girl like you?"
Emperor Jingxuan felt pained: "... You, just keep it."
Su Xiaoxiao smiled and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty!"
After passing the clear road, everything is finally mine! Outside the palace, Xiao Chonghua and Jing Yi stood in the light and shadow of the corridor.
They were delayed by official business and arrived a little late, just in time to catch Su Xiaoxiao and the Princess of Beiyan playing the piano. Su Xiaoxiao's piece was simply heavenly music.
Jing Yi asked: "Cousin, do you regret it?"
Xiao Chonghua whispered: "Is regret useful?"
Jing Yi shook his head decisively: "It's useless."
Xiao Chonghua glanced at him: "Then why are you asking?"
Jing Yi said fearlessly: "Oh, stimulate you a little."
Xiao Chonghua: "..."
With this heavenly music, the following songs and dances seemed to lack some flavor. The more people savored it, the more they felt that they wanted more. They didn't know if they would have the chance to witness that vocal feast again in this lifetime.
At the end of the banquet, the young princess of the Western Jin Dynasty handed the almost bald Wuhu to Su Xiaoxiao and said, "I'll give you Wuhu again. Can you bring Wuhu to play with me tomorrow?"
Su Xiaoxiao said softly: "Little Princess, Wuhu will lend it to you for a few days, you don't have to return it to me in such a hurry."
The eyes of the young princess of the Western Jin Dynasty sparkled: "Really? Can I bring the Five Tigers back to the inn?"
Su Xiaoxiao nodded.
If you don't bring the Five Tigers back, how can they act as spies?
The young princess of the Western Jin Dynasty went happily holding the Five Tigers.
Su Xiaoxiao finally came before Princess Hui'an.
Princess Hui'an turned her face away: "Humph, you still remember to come back?"
Su Xiaoxiao took out a sapphire and said, "Give it to the princess."
These were just looted from the Northern Yan delegation. Such bright and beautiful jewels complement the bright and charming Princess Hui'an perfectly.
Princess Hui'an snorted, "Am I the only one who has it, or do others have it?"
Uh... Lin Daiyu is possessed...
Su Xiaoxiao said: "Only the princess has the gem."
Princess Hui'an then took the gem and put it away carefully.
Princess Jingning said: "You played very well. I benefited a lot from your performance today."
The two talked for a while, and then the princess of the Western Jin Dynasty came over.
She came to Su Xiaoxiao to ask for the music score.
The princess of the Western Jin Dynasty said, "Mo Xie really likes your music, but she is too embarrassed to come over to ask for it."
Su Xiaoxiao looked at a guard with a cold face not far away. Is this the erhu musician who just played with her?
How come he looks like a killer? Or... you can't be a killer without some talent these days?
Su Xiaoxiao said: "If Guard Moye is not in a hurry, I will write it tonight and send it to the post house tomorrow."
The princess of the Western Jin Dynasty turned and looked at Moye.
Mo Xie stood straight with a serious expression: "Yes."
The princess of the Western Jin Dynasty smiled.
This was the first time Su Xiaoxiao saw her smile.
The Ice Beauty has a very beautiful face. With just a faint smile, even the glaciers seem to melt.
The Northern Yan delegation suffered a great loss and left in disgrace.
Su Xiaoxiao was surrounded by the daughters of the palace again. In fact, it was not just them. Many officials and their wives also wanted to come over and exchange a few words.
Isn't this a chance? After bidding farewell to the daughters, Su Xiaoxiao called out to Su Xuan, who was about to leave quietly, "Fourth cousin!"
Su Xuan paused, turned around and looked at her, his expression very gentle: "Cousin."
In Su Xiaoxiao's memory, Su Xuan was a quiet, handsome man, even a little weak. However, the tremendous power that erupted from his flute playing tonight was shocking.
Su Xiaoxiao came in front of him and realized that he was very tall, at least taller than Su Li.
She asked, "Fourth cousin, you play the flute so well, but your family doesn't seem to know?"
Su Xuan smiled and said, "You can play the piano, but no one knows it."
Su Xiaoxiao blinked: "I have a secret, does my fourth cousin have one too?"
Su Xuan smiled and said, "I didn't."
Looking at Su Xuan's departing back, Su Xiaoxiao touched her chin suspiciously: "You denied it so quickly without even asking me what secrets I have."
"Gone?"
Wei Ting was waiting for her.
“Here it comes!”
Su Xiaoxiao walked towards her handsome husband in a good mood.
At the palace gate, he ran into Princess Beiyan who was about to get on the carriage.
Su Xiaoxiao glanced at her with a smile: "Princess Beiyan, did you feel happy losing tonight?"
Princess Beiyan said coldly: "Don't be so proud!"
Su Xiaoxiao spread her hands: "You may be mistaken, I am not proud, I am simply mocking you!"
Princess Beiyan had never seen such an arrogant person!
Wei Ting sighed and said, "Don't make me angry."
Su Xiaoxiao raised her eyebrows and smiled: "Yes, I am still counting on the help of Princess Beiyan to get rich. If I come a few more times, I don't know if I will have the chance to become the richest man in the world. She is collecting wealth from the people, and I am the only one."
Princess Beiyan was so angry that she almost vomited blood: "You will regret it! You will come back to beg me! You definitely will! You all will!"
On the other side, the young princess of the Western Jin Dynasty returned to the inn.
The first thing she did was to carry Wuhu to the lotus pond.
"I knew you were here!"
She walked over to the man and sat down.
"You didn't go today, so I met a new friend and she gave me a little parrot to play with."
The man didn't say anything, but just quietly played with the rusty iron bell in his hand.
The young princess of the Western Jin Dynasty asked, "Are you looking at it again? Is it important to you? Why can't I even touch it? Can you tell me?"
It’s almost the end of the month, so if you still have monthly tickets, please vote for them quickly.
