Chapter 147 Have you seen that rich man without a belly?
Tianqi Capital.
When Emperor Tianqi received the good news sent by Tang Zhenhong, he happily shouted "good" three times.
"Great! I didn't expect that Princess Jing not only has medical skills, but is also incredibly courageous. She actually went deep into the enemy camp with Prince Jing, killed the enemy's corpse soldiers, and robbed the enemy's food and grass. More importantly, she captured the Crown Prince of Western Shu.
"They have made a great contribution to this great victory. I will reward them handsomely when they return," said Emperor Tianqi.
Gao Ming also happily agreed: "Your Majesty is wise."
Emperor Tianqi rolled his eyes at him and said, "Old man, I knew you were on Prince Jing's side."
Gao Ming chuckled, "This old servant's heart follows the emperor. If the emperor says it's okay, then it's okay."
Emperor Tianqi snorted coldly, but he was not angry. He smiled and said, "Send the order and summon all the ministers to the palace to discuss the compensation issue of Xishu."
"The slave obeys the order."
After Gao Ming retreated, Emperor Tianqi began to write an imperial edict to Tang Zhenhong, ordering him to escort the Prince of Western Shu back to the capital.
At this time, in the Queen's Qingluan Palace, she also received news that Gu Lingyue and Long Shang had penetrated deep into the enemy camp and captured the Prince of Western Shu alive. She was so angry that she smashed all the teacups on the table to the ground and broke them into pieces.
"Bitch! Bitch! She deceived my son. It turns out she was hiding her true identity the whole time!"
"Your Majesty, please calm down. Please take care of yourself." Nanny Jin comforted her.
Queen Shen took a deep breath to calm herself down, and after pondering for a while, a sinister light flashed in her eyes.
"Yes, I can't be angry. Not only can I not be angry, I have to be happy. Prince Jing and Princess Jing won this battle for Tianqi, and I also want to do something for them.
Since Prince Jing doesn't have time to marry a concubine, then I, as his mother, will help him marry a concubine into the palace."
"Yes, Your Majesty is wise." Nanny Jin praised.
"Jinsuo, I'll leave this matter to you. Remember, you must send this person to Prince Jing's Mansion for me."
"Please rest assured, Your Majesty. I will definitely complete your instructions."
After Nanny Jin left, Empress Shen sneered, "Are you supposed to be united as a couple? I want to see how you can still be united as a couple after having a few more women."
At this time, Gu Lingyue and Long Shang did not know that Queen Shen wanted to alienate them. They were driving on the road to the border of Western Shu.
The two set out at night, and when the sky was already turning pale, they were less than ten miles away from Wuyue City, the nearest city to the border of Western Shu.
Gu Lingyue put the car into the space, and the two of them used their lightness skills to quickly arrive at a place not far from the gate of Wuyue City and stopped, hiding in the dark to observe.
At this time, the city gate was closed, and some people were waiting at the gate to open and enter the city.
Gu Lingyue looked from afar and saw that the people were wearing clothes not only of people from Western Shu, but also of a man wearing clothes of Apocalypse.
Long Shang said: "Before Tianqi and Xishu were not at war, merchants from the two countries had trade exchanges, so the people of the two countries could visit each other."
Gu Lingyue nodded in understanding.
The city gate is not open yet, so they can't get in for the time being. Gu Lingyue takes Long Shang into the space.
After washing up and having a simple meal, the two of them went to bed to rest. When they woke up, the clock in the space had already pointed to three o'clock.
After dinner, Gu Lingyue put makeup on herself and Long Shang respectively. She also stuck a fake beard on Long Shang and made a beer belly, dressing him up like a businessman, while she dressed herself up as a servant beside Long Shang.
Long Shang looked at his current appearance with a look of disgust, "Yue'er, this belly is no longer needed, right?"
Gu Lingyue rolled her eyes at him and asked, "Have you seen that rich guy without a belly?"
After she finished speaking she laughed.
If Long Shang becomes like this in the future, she probably won't eat him again.
Seeing Gu Lingyue smile, Long Shang looked helpless.
He secretly swore in his heart that he must maintain his figure and never let Yue'er dislike him.
After they dressed up, they left the space and walked towards the city gate.
Because they had just suffered a defeat, the gates of Wuyue City were heavily guarded. People entering the city had to line up, and everyone entering the city had to be searched. If anyone was found to have valuables, they would have them confiscated. If they refused to give anything, they would be beaten up.
When Gu Lingyue and Long Shang were about to reach the city gate, Gu Lingyue discovered that the man wearing Apocalypse clothes that she saw in the morning was thrown aside. His body was covered with wounds and he kept spitting blood from his mouth. Judging from his face, the man did not look very old, probably less than 20 years old.
She subconsciously looked at Long Shang.
At this moment, Long Shang's eyes were filled with murderous intent.
Even when the two countries were at war, Tianqi did not make things difficult for the people of Xishu. However, the soldiers of Xishu actually killed the people of Tianqi at will. They deserve to be put to death!
Long Shang looked at Gu Lingyue, and when he noticed her worried eyes, he restrained his murderous intent, calmed his aura, smiled at Gu Lingyue, and reassured her.
At this time, the Western Shu soldiers were mumbling something, and after saying a few words, they pointed at the Tianqi people on the ground and whipped them, then cursed them a few words.
Gu Lingyue didn't understand the Western Shu dialect and knew that what was said was not a good thing, so Long Shang explained it to him in a low voice.
"He said that people from Tianqi are not allowed to enter the city, and if you dare to force your way in, you will be killed without mercy."
Gu Lingyue frowned, said nothing, and followed Long Shang closely.
It will be their turn soon.
The soldier yelled something and pointed at her and Long Shang.
Gu Lingyue guessed that the soldier wanted her and Long Shang to be separated and searched.
At this time, Long Shang also said a few words to the soldiers of Xishu, but those soldiers ignored him and continued to yell at Gu Lingyue to go over for inspection.
But Gu Lingyue only put on makeup on her face, which would be exposed if she was checked. Seeing this, Long Shang was ready to take action.
At this moment, a carriage came galloping out of the city and stopped at the city gate. A middle-aged man in his forties wearing Western Shu clothes got off the carriage.
He first ran to the injured man and took a look. When he found that he was still alive, his distressed hands trembled and he didn't know how to start to help the injured man up.
At this time, the soldier who asked Gu Lingyue to go over yelled at the middle-aged man.
The middle-aged man quickly stood up and walked over, taking out a piece of paper from his pocket.
Seeing this, Gu Lingyue knew that her opportunity had come. She took out a silver ingot from the space with her sleeve and pretended that it had accidentally dropped on the ground. Then she bent down in panic to pick it up. Seeing this, the soldier who was searching Long Shang stepped forward and kicked Gu Lingyue into the city gate, saying something.
Gu Lingyue pretended to want to go forward and ask for silver, but the soldier drew his sword, and scared Gu Lingyue so much that she ran towards the city. While running, she looked at Long Shang and shook her head at him.
At this time, Long Shang clenched his hands and was about to attack the soldier, but he saw Gu Lingyue shaking his head at him. He endured it, looked at the soldier who kicked Gu Lingyue again, and then walked into the city.
They had not gone far when the carriage that had just come galloped past them and ran forward.
It was already dark, and they definitely couldn't leave the city now. The two planned to find an inn to stay in first, inquire about the current situation in Xishu, and buy a carriage after dawn. After all, it would be inconvenient to drive after arriving in Xishu.
