Chapter 199: Frivolous Again (Subscription Request)
[Skill points: 121713]
At this Northern Qi banquet, Shen Qingzhou had an unexpected surprise. The eldest princess of Northern Qi did not expect that she had so many skill points.
There is also Shen Wan'er, who must be Shen Zhong's sister. She got down from her seat. There was a young man, Shen Wan'er must be the woman next to him. This young man was Yan Bingyun.
Since Sean didn't come back, he naturally wouldn't return to Qing Kingdom. It was normal for him to show up at the banquet now. However, there was a high probability that Zhan Doudou had tried to win him over. His real identity was Sean's grandson. I don't know if he would feel troubled when accepting this.
There is also the commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guard, who will replace Shen Zhong. I didn’t expect that he could contribute 500 points, but it’s better than nothing.
"I have had frequent correspondence with the Queen Mother of Qing..." The eldest princess of Northern Qi came to pay her respects to Shen Qingzhou and sat on the desk closest to Shen Qingzhou. Many people understood that this was a beauty trap.
The eldest princess looked at Shen Qingzhou, her heart in turmoil. Her mother asked her what her impression of Master Shen was. She had never seen him before, and her mother also asked her to attend the banquet. It was obvious that her mother wanted to bring her together with the master.
Frankly speaking, Shen Qingzhou was very satisfying. His appearance was not that great, but his martial arts was too strong, and coupled with the aura he had cultivated, his appearance was probably the least noticeable thing to him.
If she could become the Grand Master's legal wife, it would be great for Northern Qi. However, she felt a little unsure. There were rumors in the capital that the Grand Master had his eyes on her mother. She was also thinking that although her mother was beautiful, she was not young anymore, and the Grand Master was weird.
"The Grand Master is coming to Qi this time, and the whole country welcomes him very much. My eldest daughter has heard of the Grand Master's power and has admired him for a long time."
The Queen Mother spoke slowly. In the court of Northern Qi, there were always two voices. A bunch of welcome speeches were said, and then the Queen responded. Although Shen Qingzhou was a grandmaster, the Queen was an elder, and he himself did not like such fake occasions.
After returning to the Yellow Crane Tower, Huang Helou and Shen Qingzhou chatted about what happened at the banquet. In the final analysis, the Queen Mother wanted to marry Shen Qingzhou. Shen Qingzhou just said, "Let your aunt arrange it."
The queen felt that under the original circumstances, the eldest princess was indeed okay, but now that the protector of Northern Qi had been defeated by Shen Qingzhou, why did she need the eldest princess? Wouldn't it be better for the emperor to marry her?
Starting from the second day, the Queen started to travel in Shangjing. The style was different from that in Kyoto. And this time, the Queen Mother was accompanied by the eldest princess and the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry as guards, so of course nothing would go wrong. As for Shen Qingzhou, he entered the Imperial Academy. The culture of Northern Qi was much higher than that of Kyoto, and he wanted to find a way to accumulate his talent.
After a week, the queen returned with a full load, but Shen Qingzhou still got nothing.
"If you have free time, you can come to Kyoto for a visit." The Queen Mother saw Shen Qingzhou and the others off from Shangjing. They should leave quickly. With a great master from an enemy country around, they felt unsafe. The Queen was just being polite.
"Finally he left. Luckily, this little bastard didn't cause any trouble. He is so lucky to become a grandmaster." The Queen Mother couldn't help but whispered as she watched the carriage team, which had grown significantly in size, leave and returned to her own carriage.
The people of Northern Qi were about to go back and forth, but suddenly, a white light appeared, and when it stopped, it turned out to be the nineteenth master in the world, Bai Long. The person riding on it was naturally the young grandmaster. The people of Northern Qi were a little surprised. Why did you come back alone if you had left?
The Qing Kingdom's convoy also noticed something was wrong and stopped. Bai Long stopped in front of the most prosperous carriage. Shen Qingzhou got on the carriage without saying a word, which made everyone in Northern Qi terrified. What was he going to do? But they didn't dare to stop him.
Inside the carriage, the Queen Mother had just finished speaking when she realized something was wrong. A person lifted the curtain and walked in directly. She didn't even have time to scold who dared to be so bold, but she found out it was Shen Qingzhou.
"You, what do you want to do?" The Queen Mother was a little surprised.
"Let me remind you that the grand master has very good hearing." Shen Qingzhou came before the empress dowager, and the empress dowager understood that he had heard her cursing.
In fact, it's not that good, it's just that Shen Qingzhou is different, with a strong body and strong facial features. "You, what do you want to do?" The queen mother only had one sentence, and then, she felt her face tighten, Shen Qingzhou grabbed her face with both hands and rubbed it a few times, it was too embarrassing.
"This time, considering that you are accompanying your aunt to visit the capital, I will not punish you too much. Don't you think I am lucky to become a Grandmaster? If you dare to offend me next time, I will let you give birth to a child with the blood of a Grandmaster. You can try and see if it is luck. Also, you are not allowed to kill those people outside."
After several slaps, Shen Qingzhou walked away. The empress dowager grabbed her face, looking dazed. She was really molested this time, and he even slapped her buttocks.
"Go back to the palace." The Queen Mother's angry voice rang out. The others were silent. They didn't know what had happened, but it was definitely not a good thing. However, they didn't have the time to do bad things. They didn't understand.
The Qing State convoy continued to move forward, but the queen was very angry. She originally thought that the last time he was frivolous was just to challenge Northern Qi, and there would be no other communication this time. However, the behavior just now was a slap in her face. How could you like a woman with a child? It's all my fault. I'm narcissistic again.
As for the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry, they have absolute respect for Shen Qingzhou and will unconditionally support whatever Shen Qingzhou does.
However, people showed more respect to the queen. It seemed that some rumors were true. The queen noticed that the palace maids were changing the way they addressed her. They had started to change from "Niangniang" to "Mistress", as if she was her own person.
……
Dongyi City is the commercial capital of the world. It is a holy place for merchants because of its freedom, the largest bank in the world, its powerful military force, and its great masters.
In terms of prosperity, this place is far more prosperous than Shangjing and Kyoto. Shangjing and Kyoto are home to many dignitaries, but in Dongyi City, money rules the world.
When we first came to Dongyi City, we were all very curious about the endless seaside city. The most peculiar thing was that Dongyi City had no city walls.
"It's so prosperous here." The sky was just getting dark, but walking among the endless buildings, it felt like daytime. Every household seemed to be competing to see who had the most lanterns, and the ones with the most lanterns were various businesses.
There is even a night market here, which is really not easy in a feudal society with curfew.
"Yun Zhilan respectfully welcomes Grandmaster Shen to our Dongyi City." A loud shout was heard, and Yun Zhilan brought a group of Jianlu disciples dressed in the same clothes to welcome Shen Qingzhou.
He came to Dongyi City without any concealment, and everyone even knew his purpose.
Si Gu Jian has been sharpening his sword for a long time, just waiting for a battle. Among the grand masters, Si Gu Jian may be the most combative. This is a swordsman.
"Grand Master, Shen, Shen Qingzhou is here." Many people were whispering, this was a big shot.
A group of people settled directly in the City Lord's Mansion. Shen Qingzhou was a little curious. Was this the intention of Si Gu Jian or Yun Zhilan? This was already an attempt to please them.
But it’s normal, no matter whether you win or lose, you are still a grandmaster.
