It's the cyber age now, and you're still playing traditional villains?

"Can't we meet together?"

"I guess not?"

Xiaomei curled the corner of her mouth. She knew that the two sides were now somewhat at odds with each other, and no one was willing to get together.

There is even a lot of discussion about which party to meet first. Logically, should we go to the Holy See first? They are more powerful overall.

"Too."

Xu Shi sighed, "Then let's go to the royal family first."

For him, it doesn't matter where he goes first.

"……Row."

Xiaomei wanted to persuade him, but Pan Cheng also told her before leaving not to interfere with his ideas, so she gave up the idea and said, "Then I will lead the way. This way, please."

I have to say that although she looks big and strong like a Barbie doll, she is very meticulous in her work. After getting off the boat, she arranged everything without stopping, and even chose the best and most comfortable carriages.

With the pass, they would not encounter any obstacles and the guards at the city gate quickly let them pass.

"Your main city is quite prosperous."

Looking at the hustle and bustle of the surroundings, Xu Shi couldn't help but sigh that, apart from anything else, the living atmosphere here was indeed much better than that of the Night City of Sin.

The main thing is that it is more lively - pedestrians coming and going, hawkers in the market, soldiers and priests preaching from time to time, and people talking and laughing among themselves.

This is not seen in the Night Crime City. People often don't have this idea, and most shops are unmanned. Who would have nothing better to do than spend time chatting and arguing?

“In fact, it’s just like this in the main city.”

Xiaomei smiled and said, "There are many counties under the empire, but those places are not so lively. They are even more sparsely populated than Silver Pine Island."

"Is that so?"

Xu Shi nodded, "I always feel that Miss Xiaomei knows a lot. No wonder Brother Pan sent you to be our guide."

"The royal family's new court mechanic is my master."

Xiaomei did not hide it from him, "The current one is my senior brother... I left Yinsong Island for a long time before, and I was visiting various places at that time."

"I see."

Xu Shi understood that it was not just a simple matter of understanding, but that he had connections in the court to help him get things done. No wonder the procedures coming and going did not seem difficult at all.

"Hey? What's that?"

Xia Ke'an's attention was not on this, but was attracted by a shop on the roadside, "Dad, dad, I want that!"

Looking in the direction of her finger, I saw a small stall selling snacks.

What they sell are sugar-coated apples. The stall owner is very skillful. He carves all kinds of exquisite patterns on the fruits with his hands, then pours syrup on them. When illuminated by a small stone lamp, the patterns look very beautiful and are very popular among children.

"Then buy it."

Xu Shi was not a stingy person. It was natural for him to spend money on his beloved daughter. He immediately stopped the carriage and stuffed a few silver coins into her pocket. "Go pick what you like."

"Dad is so nice, thank you!"

The white-haired loli smiled like a flower, now he is not a bad father anymore.

"My husband is partial, I want one too."

Jiang Chengcheng suddenly felt a little jealous when she saw this, and she pulled Xu Shi's arm and started to act coquettishly.

She didn't necessarily want to eat it, but she had to have one.

"Okay, okay, buy, buy, buy."

Mr. Xu was very wealthy, so he thought about it and decided to jump off the carriage. He came back with a bunch of candied apples. "Here, this is for you."

"And this is yours, my Lady Xia."

"Thank you."

Xia Wuyou also smiled and couldn't let go of the small gift.

"There's a share for both of you, too."

Xu Shi handed one to each of the sisters Feng and Ling. They could see that they wanted them very much. It was obvious that they seldom came to the main city of the empire, and there was no such thing on Silver Pine Island.

"Thank you, Master!"

Pan Feng took a big bite.

"Thank you, master."

Pan Ling was much more elegant, and the joy of sweets diluted her inner entanglement.

"What about mine?"

Xie Qingyan, who was left aside, felt a little indignant and stretched out his hand towards the dog man with a sour face.

"How will you be here?"

Xu Shi looked as if he had seen a ghost. "If you hadn't said anything, I would have forgotten about it...Haha, I was just kidding. Look, this one is a pig. It suits you very well."

"Huh, I wonder who the pig is."

The bitch rolled her eyes at him, this guy just wouldn't say nice things... Forget it, just treat this pig as him and bite him off in one bite!

"Would you like to have one too, Sister Xiaoqin?"

No one forgot about Xu Shi, even Shen Qin had a copy.

"I……"

Shen Qin didn't want this kind of thing at all, but she didn't dare to refuse it, so she had to take it carefully and held it in her hand, at a loss.

"That's not right."

Xu Shi asked seriously, "What should I do if I take the things?"

"……Thanks."

Shen Qin lowered his eyes and pretended to take a bite.

It’s quite sweet. Very sweet.

The taste is not unpleasant, it is completely different from the forced pleasure in the mind.

For a moment she was a little touched, but she quickly dismissed the idea.

"Xu Enren's family is very harmonious."

Xiaomei saw this and couldn't help but praise him.

"right?"

Xu Shi was very pleased and asked, "Would you like one too?"

"Forget it. I have a toothache after eating it."

"Then I'll eat two."

So the final scene was very interesting. When Xu Shi and his party passed through the city and entered the royal castle, everyone was holding unfinished candy apples in their hands...

When they arrived at the palace, the ministers who were on high alert were dumbfounded for a moment when they saw this scene.

What's going on? You're here for a spring outing with your family?

Xu Shi didn't care. He finished his apple in a few bites and said with a smile, "Xu Shi, the envoy of Night Sin City, represents the city-state to meet the Empress of the Empire."

Then he discovered that there seemed to be no women here, not even a female official.

What about people?

"...Her Majesty is still dressing up. Please wait for a moment."

A middle-aged man spoke up. He looked like a military commander? Even in the court, he was still wearing armor and carrying a sword. It was obvious that he was of high status.

As soon as he spoke, everyone else fell silent.

The waiting time was not very long, just one or two minutes later, the voice of a female official was heard from behind the scenes, "Her Majesty the Queen has arrived!"

Seeing the supreme ruler of the Hualan Empire slowly walk out, everyone was stunned for a moment.

Because this is a beautiful girl with blonde hair and blue eyes, wearing a long white stockings dress.

At first glance, she was about Gu Yi's age, not very young, but among this bunch of untidy middle-aged and elderly ministers, it would not be an exaggeration to say that she was a little loli, giving people a feeling of being out of place.

Xia Wuyou, Jiang Chengcheng and Xia Ke'an blinked, and then all cast strange looks at Xu Shi.

How do you know?

You've been here secretly before, right?!

Chapter 220 Night City Iai, Boy (asking for monthly tickets!)

Good luck!

I just said something without thinking, who would have thought that it turned out to be correct?

Looking at the Queen of Hualan Empire who was teasing him exactly the same way, Xu Shi suddenly doubted whether he was born with the dual supernatural powers of making his words come true?

No wonder the girls looked at him with such expressions. Even the clothes were described exactly. Do you dare to say that you have never been here?

I am wronged! If I really have this ability, I will make a wish now that all the "just people" will turn into fluff balls when they go out... Xu Shi secretly complained, but he couldn't show it on his face, and still bowed slightly politely.

"Envoy Xu Shi from Night Sin City, on behalf of our country, greets Her Majesty the Queen."

He was very polite - he had specifically consulted Pan Cheng before coming here, and seeing this, others also followed suit and showed courtesy.

When you first meet someone, always be friendly.

Of course, it's hard to feel this when you see the whole family, young and old, chewing on a candy apple when you first entered the house...

"Night Crime City...huh?"

The queen on the throne blinked and showed a lovely and sweet smile, "I heard about it from Duke Gu Jian before!"

"No outsiders have ever come to the Hualan Empire. You are the first group."
