In the afternoon, Baitao, who was full of worries, returned to the Palace of Prince Qin.

As soon as I entered, I was surrounded by a group of young and lively palace maids. They served tea, poured water, and came over to squeeze my shoulders and rub my legs.

"Little master, where did you go today? You came back a little early."

"Did you see anything new outside the palace?"

"You didn't hear enough about what happened last time, little master."

Surrounded by a group of orioles, Baitao spat out the tea leaves. Before she could answer, Rui'er rushed over and gave the little palace maids a few looks, "Go and go, don't you have to do any more work? There are so many new things to tell you."

.”

The little palace maids treated the little master casually, but they behaved well in front of Rui'er. Now they didn't dare to stay longer and ran away quickly.

Baitao said to Rui'er: "Since you became my eldest maid and the general manager of this palace, you seem to be getting more and more fierce."

"Who allowed this slave to have such a careless master? Naturally, he has to worry about his mother-in-law."

Rui'er glanced at her angrily, took out the hood she had just worn, opened it and said, "My lord, where is the pearl on it? Is one missing?"

Baitao: "..."

Baitao: "I just used it to pay for the house. I forgot who I paid it to."

"Pay the rent? What an expensive house of gold and silver will you live in?"

Rui'er clutched her chest and said sadly, "Little Master, this is not a simple pearl, it is a tribute pearl treasured by the destroyed Zhou Dynasty royal family."

Baitao: "?"

How many beads are there, so big?

"When the late king was still alive, he granted a fiefdom to Xiangbang. It happened to be near the Zhou royal family, and Xiangbang led his troops to destroy it. This pearl was found from the Zhou royal family's treasury."

"The late king originally planned to give it to the Queen Mother, but for some reason, your Majesty asked for it."

"These twelve pearls were handed over to the slave. I didn't know whether it was better to dress you or make jewelry for you. I was hesitant. Even the pearls had been covered in dust for several years. In the first half of the month, I just wanted to make the best use of them.

, I made a hood for you, and you still have it when you go out."

Rui'er cried sadly, "I don't know where the pearl has gone. My little master, don't you think this pearl is different from other things? It looks brighter?"

After hearing this, Baitao said hesitantly: "It's a bit...it's heavier to wear."

Rui'er will definitely fall.

After a while, she regained her breath and took out the pearl that Bai Tao had paid for casually.

"Fortunately, this is a priceless gift from the emperor, not an ordinary pearl. The innkeeper was afraid of beheading, so he hurriedly handed it over, otherwise the slave would have been unable to sleep all night."

"?"

The pearl was already in hand, and Baitao couldn't figure out what she meant by these words, "Didn't I find it already? Then you were still talking about me just now."

Rui'er didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "No, little master. I know that you don't value these external things."

"But I want you to tell me, this is a reward from your Majesty. No matter in the palace or outside the city, you are the only one who dares to sew the pearl on the hood and wear it. This is the only share given by your Majesty."

"The things your Majesty gave to my young master, including food, clothing, and supplies, are all the same. If you, my young master, also regard them as treasures, wouldn't your Majesty feel more happy?"

He is talking about great truth again.

Baitao reluctantly absorbed it, "Okay, I understand."

Rui'er always felt that she, a charming little master, was smart, but she always seemed to be confused about certain things.

But what is certain is that you have already plunged into it, and now you can only look at your side.

She added fuel to the flames: "My young master, your Majesty is playing harp and drinking wine with Prince Dan in the backyard. Would you like to go over and have a look?"

Prince Dan.

Ji Dan is the chicken breast that Zhao Guo HD met.

Baitao then remembered that the chicken breast was deceived by Gan Luo into being used as a hostage in the State of Qin.

And when I looked at him before, I thought he had tall eyes, but now after a few years, he is definitely not a good thing.

She said, "If you don't go, Brother Zheng will handle the political affairs. What should I do?"

"It's not about dealing with political affairs."

Rui'er smiled with two dimples, "Your Majesty and Prince Dan don't have so many political affairs to deal with. I heard that when your Majesty was a hostage in Zhao State, Prince Dan took good care of you, and little master, you are not

Have you and your Majesty known each other since we were in Zhao State a long time ago? They have all stayed in Zhao State, you can talk to them about the food, customs, and past of Zhao State HD."

"Then what's there to talk about?" Baitao said clearly, "I'm not going."

Rui'er paused and could only use her trump card, "Little Master, there is an old man in the north of the city. He specializes in raising crickets for a living. Now he has a cricket king, a rare white-toothed green one. If it is

My young master can go to the backyard, and tomorrow my servant will secretly help you settle it, so that your Majesty won’t find out.”

Baitao's eyes lit up and she immediately changed her words: "I'll go!"

You should have told me earlier.

backyard.

Under the involucrata tree, the green is as green as jasper, and the flowers bloom like white doves.

Sitting on the two rows of long desks were Ying Zheng and Ji Dan.

Ying Zheng was dressed in a black robe. Since he had not been crowned, his black hair was hanging down and tangled around his waist. The wind picked up his chin, like a breathtaking siren.

Ji Dan wore a jade crown and a blue robe unique to the Yan Kingdom.

His facial features were straight and his eyebrows were straight. After pressing the last note with his calloused fingertips, he said, "The King of Qin is not married yet, right?"

Ying Zheng: "Never."

Ji Dan smiled kindly and said, "I have several royal sisters who are at the right age and are waiting to be married in the Kingdom of Yan. They are really worried that they can't get married."

Ying Zheng said calmly, "Oh?"

"Especially the twelfth princess who is my mother's compatriot. Not only is she beautiful, she is proficient in chess, music, calligraphy, painting, poetry, singing, dancing, embroidery and bow. Her personality is quiet and indifferent. I think she is a perfect match for you, just like the King of Qin.

If you don't mind, I will send her over, and she will become a perfect couple with you, playing the harp and playing the piano."

After speaking, Ji Dan observed him with the corner of his eye, "I wonder what King Qin wants?"

"Not really."

Ying Zheng sipped the wine at hand, "The entire Xianyang City knows that I already have a sweetheart."

Ji Dan had already inquired about the people and things around King Qin in recent days. After hearing this, he said calmly, "Is it that Baitao?"

He didn't answer.

Ji Dan smiled: "She is just an orphan, with no father or mother, and no family to rely on. When the time comes, Brother Zheng will give her a wife and it will be a blessing."

He added: "Choosing a queen is different. Choosing a queen still requires consideration of major diplomatic matters. If Qin and Yan can form an alliance and join forces, will they be afraid of the barking dogs of the other five countries?"

Ying Zheng's eyes widened with sarcasm, "A strong alliance? Do you, the Yan State, want to use women to make a marriage alliance?"

Ji Dan was about to speak, but he sneered, "This is just a woman with absolutely no sincerity. How can I join forces with the Yan Kingdom?"

"you…"

The veins on Ji Dan's forehead popped out. Faced with the humiliation of the passage of time, he almost threw up his sleeves and walked away, but after enduring it, he said, "My father allows this prince to go to your Qin State, which is the greatest sincerity of the Yan State."

It is clear that the country is not as good as its people and cannot help itself, but it speaks volumes about its righteousness.

Ying Zheng played with the wine cup and said nothing.

"King Qin, do you still remember the time we spent in HD when you were young?"

Ji Dan's eyes were filled with ice and charcoal, "We have been friends in adversity since childhood. Now you are the King of Qin, and I will be the King of Yan in the future. We, Qin and Yan, have been brothers for generations. There will be no wars between the borders.

I always think it’s good.”

"After the alliance?"

"The world is divided into two parts, and Qin and Yan share it."

"Alliance."

Ying Zheng said coldly, "When you, the Yan State, joined forces to force Qin Jun to retreat to Hangu Pass, why didn't the Yan State think of something that was always good? What's more, throughout the ages, alliances have been nothing more than you cheating on me and me cheating.

You, the diplomatic friends, are only interested in the interests."

Ji Dan saw that he was not getting enough, and his voice hardened: "Everyone will die since ancient times. If you don't have faith, you will not stand. I am the prince of the Yan State. I have set an example for the Yan State, and I cannot break my faith to the people of the world or to a country."

My Lord, after this alliance is formed, if this prince betrays his trust, he should kill himself on the city wall to thank the world!"

Unexpectedly, Ying Zheng only turned the glass twice and looked sideways at a certain place on the path.

A beautiful girl walked over there. The girl's skirt was flying like flowers newly blooming on the branches. It was impossible to mistake her elegance at a glance.

Ying Zheng said calmly: "Stop arguing, my sweetheart is here."

Ji Dan now felt as if he had punched cotton in his heart, unable to go up or down.
