Chapter 157: Jiuxian Tower belongs to my husband?
"but."
"Wang Wan and his men have stretched their hands too far."
In turn.
A hint of coldness appeared on Ying Zheng's face again.
Then.
"Weak."
Ying Zheng finished speaking.
"I am here."
Dun Ruo came from the back hall.
"Investigate the case of embezzlement of annual salaries for me. There is no limit to the number of people involved."
"Besides that, focus on investigating Wang Wan and Wei Zhuang."
"Don't make anything public for now and report it to me." Ying Zheng said slowly.
"I obey your order." Dun Ruo nodded immediately and then retreated.
Black Ice Platform intervened in the investigation.
No matter what happens, we have to face the King of Qin directly. This is not something that the Shaofu or even the Tingwei can suppress.
certainly.
This time, Ying Zheng really ordered the Shaofu and Tingwei to investigate corruption and abuse of power in front of the whole court.
Li Si would definitely not miss this great opportunity to suppress Wang Wan and others.
Xianyang is only one street away from the palace.
A mansion is located here.
A brand new plaque has been hung on the mansion.
Zhao Mansion!
Obviously.
This is the mansion bestowed upon Zhao Feng by the present King of Qin.
"Yan'er, this will be our home in Xianyang from now on." Looking at the mansion in front of him, Zhao Feng smiled with satisfaction.
Although he hasn't entered yet, Zhao Feng can guess that this mansion is definitely no smaller than the royal palace.
"Husband."
"I didn't expect that the king would give this mansion to you." Wang Yan looked at the mansion, and a strange look appeared on her pretty face.
"Is there anything different about this mansion?" Zhao Feng asked with a smile.
"This is the mansion where the king lived when he returned to Qin, but it has been idle for all these years."
"I didn't expect it to be given to my husband." Wang Yan said with a smile.
Although they haven't married yet, Wang Yan already calls him husband.
"The king is indeed very good to me." Zhao Feng nodded, with a complicated expression on his face.
"If I may."
"It would be great if the King of Qin could live forever."
"Such kindness is indeed unforgettable." Zhao Feng couldn't help but think secretly in his heart at this moment.
He really enjoyed this kind of atmosphere.
The future can be imagined.
Think about the future.
He knew very well that the King of Qin could not live forever. Birth, aging, sickness and death were inevitable.
"If history doesn't change."
"In the end, it was Qin II Hu Hai who succeeded to the throne."
"My king, just because you are so open-hearted to me and so kind to me."
"I will also protect your bloodline and will not let Hu Hai kill his brothers and sisters. I will definitely protect them."
"This is my promise, Zhao Feng."
now.
Zhao Feng also secretly made a vow in his heart.
"No matter what, this will be our home in Xianyang from now on."
"Bring mother and sister over here in the future, so that the family can always be together." Zhao Feng said with a smile.
"Yeah." Wang Yan nodded obediently.
When she was in the army, she was quite a heroic woman, but after she had a one-night stand with Zhao Feng and gave birth to a pair of children, her personality and temperament have also changed.
"Qi'er, Ling'er."
"Dad will take you home."
"Your future home."
Zhao Feng smiled, picked up his children again, and walked into the mansion.
And in the mansion.
The one hundred attendants bestowed by the King of Qin had already lined up and were waiting.
When he saw Zhao Feng coming in.
They all knelt down and said, "Welcome back, Master."
These servants were all slaves and had no status. The fact that they were granted the privilege of serving Zhao Feng was because of their good performance, otherwise they would not have received such an opportunity.
"Everyone, get up."
Zhao Feng said.
"Thank you, sir." Many servants said respectfully.
They all lowered their heads and bent their bodies, not daring to look directly at Zhao Feng.
"Who is the housekeeper?" Zhao Feng took a glance and asked.
"It's a slave."
A slightly older man came out.
"What's your name?" Zhao Feng asked.
"My lord, I am Lin Fu," the housekeeper said respectfully.
"kindness."
"From now on, all matters in the mansion will be handed over to you."
"I have my wife by my side, and her words are my words."
"Is there any money in the treasury?" Zhao Feng asked.
"The money the king has bestowed is more than enough," Lin Fu said respectfully.
"Zhang Ming."
Zhao Feng shouted to the outside world.
"My Lord."
Zhang Ming immediately walked over quickly.
"Let the guards stationed in the palace, and stand guard like a military camp."
"And Lin Fu, prepare camps for 500 people in the mansion, send people to recruit enough chefs, and prepare enough meals. If there are not enough people, go and recruit more. If there is not enough money, tell me." Zhao Feng instructed.
"I obey your command." Lin Fu nodded respectfully.
And Zhang Ming did so immediately.
"That Qi'er, Ling'er."
"Do you want to get familiar with the house?"
"This is your home."
Zhao Feng rolled his eyes and asked as he looked at his two children.
"We want to follow daddy." The two little guys looked at Zhao Feng with wide eyes.
"You guys go get familiar with it first, and then daddy will take you out to play tomorrow, how about that?" Zhao Feng said with a smile.
"Where are we going to play?"
Hearing about playing, the two little guys, who were over two years old, became interested.
"Where do you want to go?" Zhao Feng asked.
"We want to ride horses, eat candied haws, and eat many, many things." Zhao Qifeng described with exaggerated gestures.
"Okay, Daddy promises you all."
"Butler, find two maids to help them get familiar with the mansion and keep them company for a while longer." Zhao Feng immediately said to Lin Fu.
"I obey your orders."
Lin Fu immediately replied respectfully.
"Sir, Miss."
"Follow me, my servant."
Lin Fu immediately stepped forward and spoke to Zhao Qi and his sister very respectfully.
"Daddy, Mommy."
"We went to play."
The two little guys were very brave and curious, so they followed Lin Fu.
Saw the two little guys leave.
Zhao Feng was naturally not polite and directly picked up Wang Yan by the waist.
“What…what are you doing?”
Wang Yan's heart was beating fast and she said shyly.
"I was inexplicably harmed by you in the military camp before, but this time the situation is going to be reversed." Zhao Feng laughed.
He walked directly into the depths of the mansion.
What happened next is naturally self-explanatory.
After four years of fighting, it was time to enjoy the day. ——Time was passing by!
For Zhao Feng, it was naturally enjoying the most common pleasure of this era.
And in Xianyang.
Since yesterday's court session, the prince's palace and the eldest son's palace have also become busy.
In the middle of this month, first the daughter of King Qin, Princess Liyang, got married, and then the eldest prince Fusu married the daughter of Li Si, one of the Nine Ministers.
Naturally, these two mansions have to go through a lot of preparation.
certainly.
Naturally, these two things also spread.
Various discussions were also heard from all over Xianyang.
Five days later, Zhao Feng returned to Xianyang.
Another major event occurred in Xianyang City, but it was not related to the various countries, but to matters concerning the people.
Jiuxianlou opened a branch in Xianyang.
Today is the opening day of the store.
now.
In the inner city of Xianyang, several three-story houses are connected together, with a plaque with the sign "Jiuxianlou".
The door of the restaurant has not been opened yet, but many people have gathered outside.
It seemed crowded, with people everywhere, densely packed.
It is hard to imagine that a newly opened restaurant can have such a large flow of people, and it is even harder to imagine that everyone is rushing to get in, fearing that they will be a step behind.
"Don't be anxious, my dear guests. Today is the first day that my Jiuxianlou opens in the capital of Qin State. It is also the first time that I come to Qin Capital to do business."
"But please rest assured, my guests."
"The wines in our Jiuxianlou are still the same as those in other branches, with the same price and taste."
"Today is the first day of opening. We at Jiuxianlou have prepared enough fine wines, which is definitely enough for most guests to buy one."
"certainly."
"The restaurant has limited space, so we still have to follow the rules of our Jiuxianlou."
"Only guests who have purchased over 100 gold coins at the Jiuxianlou can enter the second floor. Guests who have purchased over 1,000 gold coins can enter the third floor. There is no limit on the first floor."
"Now, those with VIP credentials can enter the restaurant first."
"Someone, open the restaurant door and open the VIP channel." The restaurant owner shouted.
"yes."
A group of strong guards quickly opened up a VIP passage.
No matter in which era, having power, money and status are different.
"I have already bought more than a thousand gold coins' worth of fine wine at Jiuxianlou. This is my VIP card." A man laughed and walked over with a card in his hand.
"Please come in, distinguished guest."
The guard took a look and immediately walked away.
"VIPs may go to the second and third floors."
"As for the lobby on the first floor, please enter in an orderly manner."
"certainly."
"If the house is full."
"Guests outside can also buy wine and take it home to drink."
"Jiuxianlou has fine wines of all levels." The shopkeeper said with a smile, then moved sideways and opened another passage leading to Jiuxianlou.
Suddenly.
The crowd surged, all wanting to enter the Jiuxian Tower.
Look at the world.
The fine wine of Jiuxianlou is already famous throughout the world, and there are few dignitaries in various countries who are unaware of it. Even the dignitaries are intimidated by this fine wine, let alone ordinary people.
When Zhao Feng gave the recipe to brew the Jiuxianlou wine, he set various specifications.
There are corresponding levels for both common people and the powerful to ensure that everyone can afford it.
Make a lot of money.
The development of Yan Ting is also linked to the money earned by Jiuxianlou. Zhao Feng once needed to invest a lot in Yan Ting, but now Zhao Feng has become rich enough to rival a country relying on Jiuxianlou.
This shows how popular this fine wine is.
only.
Zhao Feng was still enjoying peace at home.
The two little guys each occupied one of Zhao Feng's legs, feeling so comfortable.
Sitting next to him was Wang Yan.
With Zhao Feng, Wang Yan's face became even more radiant, but there was something wrong with her walking posture.
"Husband."
"Tomorrow is my eldest brother's wedding."
"Should we prepare something as a gift?" Wang Yan asked gently.
"Don't worry, I've already prepared it for my uncle."
"When I send it over, my uncle will definitely like it."
"But Yan'er, what gift do you want? Just tell me, and your husband will give it to you." Zhao Feng asked with a smile.
"As long as my husband is here, I don't want anything else." Wang Yan said obediently.
Hearing this.
Zhao Feng looked at Wang Yan carefully and said with some sarcasm: "Yan'er today is completely different from the former military commander Wang Yan. Back then, Yan'er could ride a horse and shoot arrows, but now she has become a beautiful girl from a small family."
"Husband, you are making fun of me again." Wang Yan blushed.
"Haha." Zhao Feng laughed.
At this time!
Zhang Ming walked over slowly: "My Lord."
"What's the matter?" Zhao Feng looked at Zhang Ming.
Zhang Ming glanced at Wang Yan and seemed a little hesitant.
"Yan'er is my wife and also your mistress. You can tell me anything." Zhao Feng said after taking a look.
"Jiuxianlou has been successfully opened in Xianyang, and business is booming."
"All the drinks prepared on the first day were sold out, and we earned a total of more than 8,000 gold." Zhang Ming reported respectfully.
"Jiuxianlou is already famous, and Xianyang is the capital of the Qin Dynasty. There are many wealthy people there, so it is natural that they can make more money than in Yingchuan."
"Let Han Xi continue to manage it. I have no control over how he runs it." Zhao Feng said in a deep voice.
"Yes." Zhang Ming stepped back immediately.
Wang Yan, who was standing by, was shocked: "Husband, is Jiuxianlou yours?"
"yes."
Zhao Feng nodded: "Mine."
"I opened it right after we destroyed Korea."
"It's just that this is unknown. Apart from my personal guards, you are the only one who knows about it."
Hearing this.
Wang Yan was immediately touched: "Don't worry, my husband, I will never tell anyone."
As Wang Yan was born into a military family, she naturally knew how valuable Jiuxianlou was. Once people knew that Jiuxianlou was opened by her husband, it would definitely bring unnecessary trouble to her husband.
"Yan'er."
"My husband still has many secrets, but now I can only let you accept them slowly."
"This Jiuxianlou is just the first one. You will start managing it for me in the future." Zhao Feng said gently.
"Husband, thank you for your trust. I will not let you down." Wang Yan said with emotion.
"Okay, let's get ready later."
"I have to attend two wedding banquets in a row recently." Zhao Feng smiled.
"By the way, my husband, what are you going to give to the eldest son?"
"He is the eldest son of the king and is regarded by the whole court as the person most likely to become the crown prince. We need to prepare well for his wedding banquet," Wang Yan suggested.
"Don't worry."
"I will prepare a gift for him." Zhao Feng nodded, but deep down, he didn't take it that seriously.
Inside Zhangtai Palace!
"Your Majesty."
"Jiuxianlou is now open, and just like other places, it is packed with customers."
"However, the situation of Jiuxianlou and the people behind it have not been thoroughly investigated by the Black Ice Platform."
"Please punish me, Your Majesty." Dun Ruo reported respectfully.
"It's been so long, and we still haven't figured out the details of this Jiuxianlou?" Ying Zheng frowned.
"I sent secret soldiers to lurk, but they were discovered by the people of Jiuxianlou after they entered. Moreover, even if there were some who succeeded in sneaking in, they became menial servants and were dismissed after a short time."
"It's as if the people from Jiuxian Tower can distinguish the people from Black Ice Platform." Dun Ruo said strangely.
A look of surprise flashed across Ying Zheng's face: "Who can identify the people on the Black Ice Platform?"
"That's it, my king."
"In the past two years, I have sent more than a hundred people to investigate, but all of them, young and old, men and women, were inevitably dismissed."
"The story behind this Jiuxianlou must be complicated."
"But one thing is certain, the people from those countries have no connection with the people in Jiuxian Tower." Dun Ruo said affirmatively.
Although Jiuxian Tower could not be infiltrated, the Black Ice Platform of various countries had infiltrated quite a bit. If Jiuxian Tower really had connections with various countries, it would definitely not escape the detection of the Black Ice Platform.
"Then what kind of power is this Jiuxianlou?"
"Could it be some hidden force?" Ying Zheng frowned.
Such a restaurant suddenly appeared in the territory of his Great Qin. Not only did it make a fortune every day, but it was also so mysterious.
This made Ying Zheng feel out of control.
"Your Majesty."
"I will continue to send people to investigate. If I find that they have ill intentions towards our Great Qin, I will immediately send Heibingtai to suppress them." Dun Ruo said respectfully.
"Yes." Ying Zheng waved his hand.
"I'll take my leave." Dun Ruo immediately retreated.
At this time!
"Your Majesty."
"Princess Liyang requests an audience."
Zhao Gao walked slowly over and reported respectfully.
Hearing the word "Liyang", Ying Zheng also showed a gentle smile on his face: "Come in."
The next moment.
A dignified and polite woman walked slowly into the palace.
When she arrived in front of Ying Zheng, she immediately bowed and saluted: "Your son greets you, father."
"Liyang, you are getting married tomorrow. Why did you want to come to your father?" Ying Zheng said with a gentle smile.
Ying Zheng was always strict with his children, but he was very kind and gentle to Liyang. He was not too strict with him, but rather very doting on him.
The reason for all this is naturally because of Chang'an Jun, Ying Chengjiao.
Because Liyang was the daughter of Ying Zheng's younger brother, he showed extra kindness and care to her. After all, she was his younger brother's only blood. "Liyang will never forget the kindness of my father in raising me. I have come here today to pay my respects to him."
Speaking of.
Liyang bowed to Ying Zheng, full of sadness.
See here.
A hint of tenderness welled up in Ying Zheng's eyes.
immediately.
Ying Zheng stood up, walked slowly towards Li Yang, and slowly helped him up: "Li Yang, I have watched you grow up since you were a child. Now you are finally getting married. This can be considered as an explanation to your parents."
"Don't worry."
"The Wang family is the best home your father has chosen for you. If you marry into the Wang family, they will not treat you badly."
"Besides, Wang Ben is a very affectionate person. He won't treat you badly."
Ying Zheng said in a gentle voice.
"Father, thank you."
Li Yang nodded and said.
"Tomorrow, my father will personally send you off to marry."
"I will hand you over to the Wang family personally." Ying Zheng held Li Yang's hand and said in a gentle voice.
Time flies!
The next day!
A red carpet extended out from the palace.
When a princess gets married, the royal family is in charge of the etiquette.
The guard of honor led the way.
Heading towards the palace.
And outside the palace.
Wang Ben, surrounded by his father's personal guards, headed towards the palace.
The sound of festive drums and music could be heard all along the way.
This also attracted countless people in Xianyang to stop and watch.
As the palace gate opened.
A black and red imperial carriage pulled by nine horses slowly drove out, with the imperial guards leading the way.
Obviously.
This was Ying Zheng personally sending his daughter off for marriage in a royal carriage.
"The king actually personally sent him off in a royal carriage."
Outside the palace.
Wang Ben couldn't help but be shocked when he saw this scene.
"The king is truly very kind to Princess Liyang."
"I'm actually sent off by the Wang family." Wang Ben said in his heart.
"Guards, clear the way."
"Send the princess to the door."
Ren Xiong shouted loudly.
The imperial guards marched forward in an orderly manner, guarding the imperial carriage and also guarding Wang Ben's wedding procession.
This scene.
It pushed this wedding banquet to an unprecedented peak.
"The guards will lead the way and escort the princess to her wedding."
"The king's favor towards Princess Liyang is truly limitless."
"yes."
"This will give Princess Liyang enough confidence. When she marries into the Wang family, the Wang family won't dare to do anything to her. After all, the king has favored her."
"The Wang family is married to the royal family, and has the youngest general of our Great Qin as a son-in-law. They are truly the most prosperous family."
"Isn't it?"
"General Wang Jian is already a powerful figure, holding a high position of authority, his son-in-law is also a general, and his son even married a princess. This status is truly unmatched."
…
On both sides of the official road, countless people were watching the excitement, many were talking about it, and naturally many were envious.
As the Guards led the way.
The wedding procession slowly moved towards the palace.
At the gate of the palace.
Wang Jian and his wife personally greeted them at the door.
This shows how much importance the princess holds. In addition, almost all the civil and military officials in the court came to the palace to attend the wedding banquet.
After all, Wang Jian was a general in a high position with great power, and he always tried not to offend anyone in the court, so naturally he didn't have many enemies.
This wedding banquet was naturally unprecedentedly grand.
This is how it should be when a princess gets married!
certainly.
The same may happen to Fusu's wedding in two days.
After all, the eldest son of the Qin Dynasty married the daughter of the Chief Justice.
