The Number One Catcher In The Capital, You Call This A Dog Leg?

Chapter 326: Chu State With A \\"Dirty\\" Heart

The little girl stroked the hair that Xu Qingpan had made into a flying fairy bun, jumped off the chair, and ran out, apparently to find her sister Su.

During this period of time, Su Qian has conquered Xiao Ruxue with absolute force. No matter where Su Qian goes, Xiao Ruxue will follow wherever she goes, just like a follower, and Su Qian's progress is still getting faster and faster. Of course Xu Qing is also fast.

Su Qian's rapid progress was due to "The Sun and the Moon", thanks to the martial arts classics sent by various generals in the court, and thanks to the martial arts classics brought by Xiao Ruxue from the palace.

Of course, Su Qian's talent is needed, such a mastery, coupled with the diligent study and hard training with Xu Qing, Su Qian is today.

This is something Xu Qing can't compare to. His attitude towards martial arts is limited to physical fitness and self-defense, so he is far less proficient in martial arts than Su Qian.

If they are sorted by force value, it is: Su Qian>Xiao Ruxue>>Xu Qing.

Xu Qing's start was really too late. When he was practicing martial arts, his bones had already been formed. It would be a miracle that he could reach half of Su Qian's achievements in this life.

Xianwang Mansion

Since it was the grand wedding of His Royal Highness, the Palace of Xian Wang was naturally decorated in an extremely gorgeous way.

Although King Xian seemed a bit sloppy in choosing the time, but he was not at all sloppy in the layout of the scene.

At this time, it was already nightfall, and the entire Xianwang Mansion was brightly lit, as bright as day.

At the gate of Prince Xian's Mansion, there are special people checking invitations, and of course, people are also accepted.

Gifts and the like are not allowed to be brought in according to the old rules. If anyone brings a gift, just put it in the place outside the door where gifts are specially piled up.

There is also a special person singing at the door:

"Master Li, Minister of the Ministry of Officials, send an authentic work of Saint King Xizhi, worth 8,000 taels!"

"Master Zhang, Shangshu of the Ministry of Punishments, give me a pair of emerald jade bracelets, worth five thousand taels!"

"My lord, Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry, give me a set of white jade floating cloud bottles, worth six thousand taels!"

"Qin Xiang sent a set of Qingqiong carved vases, worth seven thousand taels!"

"The censor, Mr. Song..."

"Jiang Xiang..."

"Master Wang..."

...

...

The envoys of the State of Zhou also received the invitation, but the voice was indeed a bit jarring. Are all the officials of Da Chu so rich? Six thousand taels, five thousand taels, whatever?

Is it stupid?

Finally, Deputy Envoy Zhou Guo was in line, and Deputy Envoy Zhou handed over a bank note with embarrassment on his face.

The person who sang the ceremony: "Zhou Guo, fifty taels..."

This opening formed a stark contrast, directly cutting off two zeros from the lowest five thousand taels.

This made the faces of the envoys of the Zhou Kingdom who came with the Deputy Envoy of the State of Zhou feel hot, how could they do it? !

But the problem is not here, the problem is what did the person who sang the ceremony say?

"Zhou Guo, fifty taels!"

If so, he would just say fifty taels of deputy envoy of the state of Zhou or fifty taels of the mission of the state of Zhou. What the person said was "Zhou Guo, fifty taels!"

Not representing a person or a group, but a country, a huge state of Zhou, gave fifty taels of silver! It's not as much as a fraction of any official in Chu State.

In their ears, it hurt even more their self-esteem.

Just when Deputy Envoy Zhou Guo was going to walk in as if he hadn't seen it, there were some voices of discussion on the side.

...

"Is Zhou Guo like this? Fifty taels are you willing to give it away? It's too embarrassing!"

"Fifty taels for a country... tsk tsk tsk..."

"Zhou Guo, what's wrong..."

"Hahaha, Zhou Guo, fifty taels, I laughed so hard!"

"Is this the face of Zhou Guoren?"

"Really, it's thicker than the corner of the city wall!"

"..."

...

After these voices came out, some envoys of the Zhou State showed their anger one after another, and they actually made the Chu State, which had suffered a disaster for a year, look down on them? How unreasonable!

At this time, the envoy behind Zhou Guo's deputy envoy suddenly took out a silver note from his pocket: "Five hundred taels!"

Another envoy took out the bank note from his sleeve: "Eight hundred taels!"

"Six hundred taels!"

"One thousand taels!"

...

The deputy envoy Zhou Guo was unmoved when he heard these voices. He just kept his face sullen and refused to pay a penny more. The money was earned by him through hard work. The little aggressive general obediently took out his own money?

As long as he has no morals, no one can kidnap him!

It was at this moment that the voice of opposition appeared.

"The amount of money you give depends entirely on your own will. You are kidnapping morality! It's shameful!"

"That's right! Zhou Guo has a vast land and rich resources, and the deputy envoy is handsome and unrestrained. Yushu Lingfeng, how could it be only fifty taels? This is called low-key! Do you understand low-key?!"

"Are you washing the land for the state of Zhou? You are simply pretending to be from the state of Chu!"

"Hehe, I'm just telling the truth. It's shameful to be kidnapped by morals like you. If Chu is like you, I'd rather go to Zhou!"

"Presumptuous! Do you know what you're talking about?"

"What's wrong with my saying that the deputy envoy is handsome and rich? I said that the state of Zhou has a vast land and rich resources, and the door is not closed at night, and the road does not pick up things. What's the matter with yearning for the state of Zhou? Deputy envoy, you can judge me, am I right?"

The Deputy Envoy of the State of Zhou saw that someone was supporting him, so he immediately held his head up and said: "That is, I have a vast land and rich resources, and I don't pick up lost things on the road! This fifty-two is a low-key move by the Deputy Envoy, and you and the people of Chu State are like this." Eyes but no eyes!"

The man said angrily just now: "That's right, they dare to look down on Mr. Deputy Envoy. This is fifty taels that symbolizes the friendship between Zhou and Chu, but fifty taels is the price of goods. How can they understand it?"

The deputy envoy of the state of Zhou admired the person who spoke for him more and more: "Exactly! Is it possible that ordinary people like you from the state of Chu can understand it? Is this deputy envoy a person with little money?"

The man continued: "Since these ordinary people have blind eyes and don't understand the good intentions of the deputy envoy, I think it's better for these ordinary people to use ordinary things to silence them! lest these ordinary people look down on the deputy envoy!"

"It's reasonable! A group of common people! This envoy is ashamed to be with you!" Deputy Zhou Guo's head became hot as he said that, he took out a stack of silver bills from his arms, and slapped them on the table.

After the person who sang the ceremony made it clear, he gathered the rest of the people and said, "Guo Zhou, 13,000 taels!"

...

"Ah! The Zhou Kingdom is worthy of being a big country, with a size of 13,000 taels!"

"Admiration, admiration!"

"Yes, yes, it's not simple, Zhou Guo is really not simple!"

"..."

Deputy Envoy Zhou Guo heard the praises, with a smile on his face, he walked in with his head held high.

Only the many envoys behind were left standing still, and they took part of the silver they had accumulated over the years as a face of Dazhou. The total amount of money was only three thousand taels. It would hurt the flesh, but it would not hurt the muscles. moving bones.

Although they were angry at the contemptuous words of those despicable Chu people, they still restrained themselves.

Although the country is important, money is more important in their hearts.

But why did the deputy envoy give 10,000 taels each! Where did so much money come from? Shouldn't you even take out your old books?

Ten thousand taels!

Isn't this a proper and cheap Chu country?

After the rest of the envoys walked in with Deputy Envoy Zhou, one of them couldn't help but turned his head and looked towards the door.

I saw that the group of people who were still belittling Zhou Guo just now and the group of people who praised Zhou Guo actually got together happily at this moment, clapping each other's hands and counting the money.

The messenger suddenly felt cold...

Damn! It's all fake!

Conspiracy, all conspiracies!

The heart of Chu State is really dirty!
