surnamed Wang

Chapter 209
When the four of them arrived at Zhenjian Mansion, the first thing they did was to find an inn. It wasn't because they were too tired and wanted to rest, but because the woman named Ah Cha smelled too much.

After ordering Xiao Er to prepare the bath water, Yan Rongrong and Moon Cake stayed behind to help her clean up, while Wang Gangquan and the other two went to a nearby restaurant to order a table of meals.

An hour later, the three women also came to the restaurant.

At this time, Ah Cha was no longer unkempt and unkempt, but changed into a clean navy blue shirt, and Yan Rongrong trimmed her messy hair, and the front half of her hair covered her burnt face , and the other half of the hair was combed to the back of the head.

There is no woman in the world who does not love beauty. As a woman, Yan Rongrong knows this best. Although Ah Cha's hairstyle is not very good-looking, it is much more pleasing to the eye than before.

The two men on the second floor saw the three of them from afar through the window. They were amazed at Ah Cha's change, and then waved at them.

"It really depends on clothes. If it wasn't for being burned, this Ah Cha should be a pretty woman."

"Hey, who said no, it's a pity."

When talking about women, men's ideas are always surprisingly unified.

This is why no matter how old a man is, he is in love with a young woman.

……

When everyone arrived, Wang Gingquan ordered Xiao Er to start serving the dishes. As the dishes were brought to the table one by one, Ah Cha, who was covering her face with her hair, suddenly became at a loss.

She is usually chained, and eats leftovers when she eats. In order to prevent hunger, they usually rush to the food as soon as the food is poured on the ground, and they grab it with their hands and stuff it into their mouths regardless of whether it is clean or not. inside.

It's really worse than livestock.

Now she was suddenly asked to serve on the table, and the exquisite bowls and chopsticks were prepared, so she didn't know what to do for a while.

Yan Rongrong looked at this woman who was still slightly dark even after taking a shower, and once again she felt sympathy overflowing, and she taught him how to use chopsticks step by step.

However, chopsticks cannot be learned overnight. After practicing many times to no avail, I finally had to serve her the food and let her continue to eat with her hands, and practice slowly later.

……

After dinner, it was already afternoon. Several people discussed and planned to purchase some supplies first. After all, the next stop would be three days away, and there would be no place to rest on the way, so they had to make sufficient plans in advance.

Naturally, it was no accident that Wang Gangquan and Pu Wen were the two big men to do it, while the remaining three women were going to go shopping around, buying some clothes or rouge and gouache.

"Brother, do you think we will have a chance to see that Donghan woman again?"

"What's wrong, your soul hasn't come back yet?"

"Senior brother, you are a full man and don't know how to be hungry. I have been a bachelor for more than [-] years. When I see a beautiful girl, I naturally can't walk."

Wang Gangquan smiled when he heard this, and stopped laughing at the other party.Everyone is a man, he naturally understands, not to mention Pu Wen, even when he sees the Donghan woman, his heart can't help but tremble, but these words can only be known by God, and cannot be said.

"You said they are all women, why is she so big?"

"Who said no?"

What can two men talk about when they get together, isn't that the only thing.

……

On the other side, Chu Lixia, who fell asleep until late afternoon, continued on the road after cleaning up briefly.

The four fur-clothed men who walked with her along the way were also tightly wrapped and silent as before.

"The four of you are really boring. You don't even say a word. You are all men. Why don't you express your feelings like the little brother yesterday?"

"..."

Her answer was still the expected silence.

"Father asked you to protect me on the surface, but in fact it was just monitoring. The rare time before I got married was wasted on you boring guys. It's really boring."

The woman said bitterly, she didn't know whether to tell the guards who were deader than the dead, or to herself.

This woman who pretends to be a business traveler in front of outsiders is actually Princess Donghan.

He is the only heir of the over fifty King Donghan.

If we were to say why the Great King of Eastern Han was willing to let his only daughter come to the Central Plains, it would be thanks to the power of the king.

On that day, the envoys of the Eastern Han Dynasty went to the Central Plains in an attempt to marry the princess of the dynasty.

This matter is just as everyone guessed, marriage is fake, but temptation is real.

Unexpectedly, Wang Gangquan got involved in the middle of the journey, and he was supposed to show off his strength, but ended up being slapped in the face.

At that time, in order to kill the prestige of the envoys of the Eastern Han Dynasty, Wang Gangquan turned the opponent into an army and asked them to marry the princess.

If you don't want to talk, the speaker has no intention, but the listener has intention.

The envoy turned around and really told their king the request of the dynasty. The king of Donghan didn't want to agree at first. Since his son died, he had only one daughter left, but after repeated persuasion by the ministers, he also realized that Reached the importance of peace.

Who gets married is not the most important thing, so what if the servants pretend to be themselves?

If this relationship can be formed with the dynasty, then it will be crucial to the economic development of Eastern Han Dynasty.

Unlike the Central Plains, which has always emphasized agriculture and suppressed commerce, Donghan emphasizes commerce, and commerce is the lifeblood of their country.

However, just 20 years ago, they were still the same as the current North Turkistan, heavily armed, and the status of businessmen was extremely low.

All these changes originated from their current prime minister, the one who assisted the king to ascend to the throne by himself 20 years ago.

At that time, the Great King of Eastern Han Dynasty was a concubine with mediocre ability and no power. Compared with the other brothers who had many followers, no one believed that he would be the one to succeed the Datong.
Then the facts are always beyond everyone's expectations. The prince rescued a hunted Central Plains man at the border in a moment of kindness, and has since become even more powerful.

He first attached himself to the most powerful eldest prince in the name of refuge, and then defeated the other princes step by step through the strategy of the Central Plains man.

After these princes failed, they were either exiled or assassinated. When the whole of Donghan believed that the eldest prince would be the final answer, the concubine prince who had endured for three years stabbed his elder brother to death without hesitation.

This move of his was too blatant and rebellious, but Donghan, no one else was qualified to inherit the throne except him.

If this matter is placed in the Central Plains, I am afraid that he will be drowned in the spittle of scholars before he succeeds.

But here, Donghan, where martial arts are respected, doesn't have so much sour smell, and there is no benevolence, righteousness and etiquette, and some of them just win the king.

This prince whose original name was Chu Xiu and later changed his name to Chu Buxiu, a person who was not worthy of having a royal name at the beginning, actually had the last laugh.

And all of this is inseparable from the counselor from the Central Plains.

No one knows what the counselor's last name is, only that he calls himself "Wen Jiang", a Tsing Yi paper fan, a literati general who kills without blood.

It may not be appropriate to say that he was a general, because no matter directly or indirectly, less than ten people died at his hands.

But a mere commoner can disturb the entire Eastern Han royal family's peace in just three years, and one person is like a general, but he can also be regarded as the word "literary general".

After Chu Buxiu succeeded to the throne, regardless of the objections of the ministers, he resolutely entrusted this Central Plains man named Wen Jiang with a heavy responsibility, and made him a "Prime Minister" that is unique to the Central Plains.

This Central Plains native, who should have been boiled to death by a rabbit, suddenly had the power to be under one person.

Anyone under the impact of power will inevitably have unsteady feet, and when they are unsteady, they will easily fall.

But this green-clothed scribe, who suddenly changed from an ordinary person to a ruler, did not feel uncomfortable at all.

The first thing he did when he took office was to develop the economy and education, so that Donghan, which had always been known as a barbarian, could learn the culture of the Central Plains and encourage the people to do business.
