Daqin: The Greatest Sage of Confucianism and Taoism

He felt like he was really worried about his daughter!

......

At midnight, the Pearl Palace was brightly lit and filled with faint fragrance.

Mrs. Mingzhu sat on the soft chair with her legs crossed, looking at the book in her hands with interest.

This is a vernacular story book called "Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio". In the beginning, she just used it to kill time, but later she was gradually attracted by the characters and plots. Every time after finishing reading it, she began to look forward to the latest plot.

What's annoying is that the author of this book updates too slowly, only updating one story every three days. If possible, she really wants to lock that guy in a small dark room until she is satisfied and then let him out.

After reading the latest story, she stretched lazily and looked out the window absentmindedly.

Not coming again?

There was a barely perceptible hint of disappointment in her eyes.

"Are you thinking about me, Madam?" A magnetic voice echoed in the room. When Madam Mingzhu reacted, Su Xuan was already sitting on the soft chair, holding Madam Mingzhu in his arms.

Although this behavior seemed presumptuous to outsiders, Madam Mingzhu was used to it and even took the initiative to move closer to Su Xuan's arms.

"You have never been so unpunctual before." Mrs. Mingzhu's tone was calm, and no emotion could be heard.

"I went to prepare a surprise for the queen." Su Xuan felt the softness and plumpness in his hand, reluctantly withdrew his hand, and took out a finely carved little figure from his arms.

The little man is only the size of a palm, but he is very lifelike, perfectly replicating human facial features, even the hair and jewelry are exactly the same.

This is a small figurine carved after Madam Mingzhu.

"Does the queen like it?"

Mrs. Mingzhu took the crystal figure and looked at it again and again.

Su Xuan, on the other hand, set his sights on Madam Mingzhu.

Today, Mrs. Mingzhu is wearing a black lace dress. She has a graceful figure, skin as crystal clear as jade, a slender waist, a plump chest, and a proud cleavage that is a feast for the eyes.

The semi-hollow black lace not only shows the charming and enchanting outline, but also adds a hazy feeling, which arouses endless reverie.

If Yan Lingji is naturally charming and can ignite the fire in one's heart, then Madam Mingzhu at this moment is extremely charming and enchanting, arousing the deepest desires in one's heart.

She is like a poppy, beautiful but also containing deadly poison. Once you are infected with it, you can no longer extricate yourself.

Mrs. Mingzhu carefully placed the figurine on the table, moving very gently, as if she was afraid of breaking it.

"You just use some cheap stuff to fool me." Madam Mingzhu gently lifted the hair beside her ear and glanced at Su Xuan casually, with a lot of charm in her eyes. "I'm not so easily bribed by you."

As early as half a month ago, she knew the value of these things.

"Your Majesty, don't you like it?" Su Xuan seemed a little regretful, "I spent most of the day making this."

"You enemy, do you want me to tell you everything clearly?" She gave Su Xuan a look of anger and resentment.

"Don't you know what my intentions are?" As she said this, she placed Su Xuan's hand on her chest, allowing Su Xuan to feel it carefully.

Su Xuan was not surprised by the changes in Madam Mingzhu. During this month, he had brought many surprises to Madam Mingzhu.

What do the noble ladies in the deep palace need most?

No need to think about it, of course it’s companionship!

He not only gave Mrs. Mingzhu enough company, but also gave her enough surprises and enough happiness.

Every time he came, he would bring some special little gifts, like this figurine. Although it was not expensive, it made Mrs. Mingzhu feel her thoughtfulness.

Including "Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio", which he also gave to Mrs. Mingzhu so that she could use it to pass the time. Even if Su Xuan was not around, she would think of Su Xuan the first time she saw these things.

"Your Majesty, I still prefer the second time we met." Su Xuan looked at Madam Mingzhu with a smile.

When they met for the second time, their relationship was far from being so close.

He whispered softly in Madam Mingzhu's ear.

"Your Highness is even more charming when she resists."

......

Chapter 102: The Considerate Lady Mingzhu

Han Wangan left Honglian's residence in a happy mood. He was very satisfied with the results of the meeting.

He knew that with just a little more push, he would be able to accomplish his goal.

But it is not appropriate for him to continue to take charge of the next matter. It is obviously more appropriate to let Madam Mingzhu, who is also a woman, take charge.

Thinking of Madam Mingzhu, an enchanting figure appeared in his mind. He swallowed subconsciously and felt his mouth dry.

He didn't know why, but Madam Mingzhu had become more and more attractive during this period of time. She seemed to be radiant and so eye-catching that she almost made him obsessed with her.

It only took him a cup of tea to arrive at the Pearl Palace.

"The king is here!" the attendants shouted loudly.

"Everyone, step back." Han Wangan waved his hand and strode forward, seeming a little impatient.

"Your Majesty, I am so honored to be here. I have to travel a long way to greet you. Please forgive me."

Behind the pink curtain, a charming figure can be vaguely seen, and it seems that she wants to stand up and salute.

Hearing Madam Mingzhu's slightly hoarse voice and cough, Han Wangan's face changed, "Madam, there is no need to be so polite."

"What's wrong, ma'am?" he asked immediately.

"Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty. I just caught a cold, cough cough..." Madam Mingzhu said weakly.

Han Wangan had no doubts, but a trace of disappointment flashed in his eyes, "Come here, call the imperial physician."

After hesitating for a moment, Han Wangan said, "Madam, please take good care of yourself. I will come to visit you again in a few days."

“Hmm…” Madam Mingzhu responded, looking at Su Xuan with resentful eyes.

This bastard is really too troublesome!

Su Xuan leaned against the head of the bed, hugging the charming Madam Mingzhu, and felt refreshed.

Madam Mingzhu leaned on Su Xuan's shoulder, her hair loose and half of her shoulders exposed. She raised her head slightly, her phoenix eyes fell on Su Xuan's face, and she smiled charmingly, "My dear, how about I help you find a few more beauties?"

Su Xuan was shocked. Are there any considerate women in this world?

He felt relieved when he thought about Madam Mingzhu selecting a large number of young women to enter the palace to please King Han.

This is an extremely smart woman!

"There are three thousand lakes of water, but I only take one." Su Xuan replied with a smile.

Madam Mingzhu was stunned for a moment, then burst out laughing. "What I said is true. There are tens of thousands of women in the world, and there are countless beautiful ones, some are charming, some are petite, and some are dignified. They are all different. Don't you want to experience them carefully?"

Looking at her serious and solemn expression, Su Xuan was a little confused.

No, are you serious?

Seeing Su Xuan's surprised expression, Madam Mingzhu smiled and explained, "Sir, you may not know that in today's world, it is normal for a powerful person to have many wives and concubines. Among them, there are many people with special fetishes, who especially like twin sisters, and there are also mothers and daughters who share one person..."

Su Xuan raised his hand to stop her. If she continued talking, she might even help him choose a concubine.

"I appreciate Madam's kindness. If you see a girl you like in the future, it would not be a bad idea to take her to be your maid." He put his arm around Madam Mingzhu's shoulders. "If I am not by your side, I can also accompany you to relieve your boredom and take care of you."

He sorted out the priorities at the first moment. Not only did he want the beauty, but he also wanted Madam Mingzhu to beg him to accept her!

Facing Su Xuan's downcast gaze, she looked dazed. In her opinion, men are fickle and no one can be favored forever. When youth is gone and beauty is gone, men will turn their attention to those young and beautiful women again.

They will always like only young and beautiful women.

But Su Xuan seemed a little different.

He also likes beautiful women, but the difference is that he does not just treat these women as objects, as things that can be discarded, and he never measures them by their value.

He treats a woman with sincerity and kindness.

She could feel the attention and care that came from the bottom of his heart. He put her on an equal footing with him, not just a vassal. This wonderful feeling made her fascinated and fall for him step by step.

She knew that she could no longer lose this man.

She nestled lazily in Su Xuan's arms like a kitten, listening to his strong heartbeat, feeling inexplicably at peace.

"If I want to take in maids, I'll take in more." She was broad-minded and laughed sweetly, her body shaking.

The two of them snuggled together, and after a moment of mutual dependence, Mrs. Mingzhu began to talk about business, "I got news from my cousin that the jade glass balls will be sold out soon."

Su Xuan chuckled, "It seems that the Blood Robe Marquis is ready to take over Ji Wuye's power."

"Millions of dollars in wealth, no one can resist such temptation, not to mention such a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity." She raised her eyes slightly, and her every move was full of charm.

Seeing Su Xuan's indifferent expression, she couldn't help but ask curiously, "Sir, aren't you tempted?"

"Who in this world doesn't love money?" Su Xuan said calmly, "Of course I am tempted."

"But right now, there are things that are a hundred times, ten thousand times more valuable than a thousand pieces of gold."

Madam Mingzhu looked stunned.

Is there really such a thing in this world?

She raised her eyes and saw Su Xuan looking at her. His sweet words made her heart tremble. "In my eyes, Madam is the most precious thing in the world. No matter how much money I have, it is not even one ten-thousandth of what Madam has."

Madam Mingzhu's body trembled, and she felt a strange tingling sensation in her heart, as if an electric current was rushing from her coccyx to the top of her head.

Her lips were slightly open, her chest heaving, and she stared at Su Xuan intently, her eyes full of possessiveness.

Su Xuan slapped Madam Mingzhu's hands away and said seriously, "Madam, we are talking about business!"

Madam Mingzhu felt her heart beating wildly. She bit her red lips lightly, her pearly teeth flashing with a crystal luster, and looked at Su Xuan with resentful eyes.

If her body didn't allow it, she would take the initiative right now!

"Madam, please come with me and leave Korea." He hugged Madam Mingzhu tighter.

During this month, he has gradually withdrawn his overt forces from South Korea.

Madam Mingzhu's expression was moved, but in the end she shook her head.

"If I stay in Korea, I can help you better." She looked determined, "And I believe that it won't be long before you can return to Korea."

"Are you so confident in me?" Su Xuan raised his eyebrows.

"Because you are the man I like!" She stroked Su Xuan's cheek with her jade hand, her eyes bold and confident.

.......

Chapter 103 Eight Linglong

The General's Mansion.

"General, the jadeite glass balls have been sold out. We made a profit of nearly a million gold from this transaction!" Jadeite Tiger toasted Ji Wuye with a glass of wine with a smile on his face, his eyes almost narrowed into slits.

Earning millions of dollars in profit in just one month, what a huge profit!

If I tell this to others, I'm afraid no one will believe it and will just think it's a fantasy.

But he did it!

This is an unprecedented feat. Even the Prime Minister of Qin, Lu Buwei, did not achieve such an achievement!

The huge wealth also made his ambition expand rapidly.

Lü Buwei was able to become the prime minister of Qin and hold all the power by relying on his status as a businessman. So can Jade Tiger do the same!

Thinking of those noble families who were proud of their noble status and bowed down before him, he couldn't help but feel a great sense of satisfaction and pride in his heart.

Ji Wuye sat on the general's chair, crossed his legs, and laughed, "Tiger, well done! Don't worry, this general will never treat you unfairly!"

During this period of time, Ji Wuye can be said to be in high spirits and has enjoyed a second spring in his life.

With the help of the emerald glass ball, he not only gained a huge amount of wealth, but also came into contact with the dignitaries of the other six countries. Even the Blood-Robed Marquis, who was always arrogant, bowed his head in front of him, and seemed to be following his lead.

He believes that it won't be long before South Korea has only one voice.

That was Ji Wuye's voice!

Talking about this business, at the beginning, he remained cautious and even sent out the Hundred Birds Killer to secretly monitor Zilanxuan.

It seems like a big gamble, but it is not. If the jadeite glass balls are popular, it will naturally bring wealth and happiness.

But if they are unsaleable, he will send troops to surround Zi Lan Xuan and return all the jadeite glass balls.
