Chapter 4 Jiaodong ([-])

One month later

Summer heat
Jimo City

"stop!"

The Jiaodong soldiers guarding the city gate stopped Wang Taihao's carriage.

"I am Taihao, the lord of the Liaodong King's family, and I come to pay my respects to the King." Wang Taihao lifted the curtain of the carriage, and after speaking, he threw the sword in his hand into the soldier's hand.

Since Jimo is the capital of Jiaodong Kingdom, it is very important to guard the city gates here, so Jiaodong Kingdom specially arranged for rare senior soldiers who can read and write to guard and check here.

After the soldier took Wang Taihao's saber, he showed it to the other soldiers, and finally checked that there were no other suspicious objects in the carriage. Long wait."

"Ah."

Wang Taihao hummed, then took back the saber engraved with "Given by the King of Jiaodong", and ordered the coachman to drive into the city.

When he entered the city, looking at the bustling scene in the city, Wang Taihao couldn't help but miss Wang Laojiao.

Originally, she wanted to bring Wang Luojiao to Jimo City, but her cousin Wang Luojiao seemed to be still sullen and insisted on staying in Xu Township to help third uncle Wang Song sell goods.

In desperation, Wang Taihao had no choice but to come to Jimo City alone in a carriage.

"Scallion pancakes, freshly baked scallion pancakes."

"Candied haws, big and sweet candied haws."

"Kite, make sure it's a strong kite."

"Girls, the young master of the Li family is here again, come and welcome the guests!"

Wang Taihao was dazzled by some food and services with Central Plains characteristics. He had never eaten such a rich food, and he had never seen this kind of flower building full of beautiful girls. He was obsessed with the colorful world here.

In Wangjiazhuang, Liaodong, sesame seed cakes are a very delicious delicacy. On weekdays, everyone hunts in the mountains and forests, and then sprinkle some sea salt on the barbecue.

Especially in that flower building, Wang Taihao, who was eating and sleeping in the open all the way, couldn't wait to go in and save those girls, but he looked at the Jiaodong King's Palace in the distance, and forcibly held back.

"Business matters, business matters."

Thinking so in his heart, Wang Taihao had already arrived at the gate of the palace, but he saw many people coming out of the gate. Those people were wearing uniform blue cloth clothes and holding uniform sabers. They left one after another without staying for a moment, as if it was very urgent.

"Who are they?" Wang Taihao couldn't help asking a guard in front of the palace gate.

"Who are you?" Unexpectedly, the palace guard turned his back on the guest and asked Wang Taihao's identity first.

"Eh..." Wang Taihao was stunned for a moment, then hurriedly threw out the saber in his hand as he did when he entered the city, bowed his hands in the direction of the palace and said respectfully: "The Lord of Liaodong Wang Taihao, come to pay your respects to the king."

After the guards checked everything was correct, they bowed their hands to Wang Taihao and said respectfully: "My lord, please enter the palace on foot. Except for the imperial sword, no other weapons are allowed, and your followers are not allowed to enter."

"Naturally." Wang Taihao agreed, and then continued to ask about the incident just now: "However, who are those people in Tsing Yi just now?"

"They..." The guard hesitated, wondering if he could say it.

"The royal family of Liaodong is the family bestowed by the king, and they are absolutely loyal. Besides, it will be known to everyone in a few days. There is nothing to say." At this time, another guard stepped forward and reprimanded the one who dared not answer. The guard then bowed respectfully to Wang Taihao and said, "Your Majesty, those people are envoys from the Kingdom of Wu. They just entered the palace to discuss the trade between the two countries with the King. Now they are going back to the Kingdom of Wu."

"An envoy from the State of Wu?" "He came all the way to discuss trade?"

Wang Taihao was a little puzzled, but these things were beyond his reach, so he could only keep them in his heart, and he was ashamed to ask more questions, so he followed the guard's advice and entered the palace on foot.

After a long time, Wang Taihao finally traveled through most of the palace and came outside a main hall of the palace.

"This palace is too big. Walking so far on foot almost exhausted me."

Wang Taihao, who finally arrived at the destination, muttered in his heart, then knelt down at the steps outside the main hall, and shouted loudly in the direction of the main hall: "Liaodong Wang Patriarch Taihao, pay homage to the king!"

After a while, a little eunuch came to Wang Taihao and said, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty let you enter the palace."

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Wang Taihao saluted again, then got up and was about to go to the main hall, but was stopped by the little eunuch.

"My lord, have you forgotten something?" The little eunuch smirked.

"Eh?" Wang Taihao was pulled like this, and he began to think about whether he had forgotten something, but after checking, the saber and everything were there. Finally, he glanced at the little eunuch with a smirk, and suddenly understood what it meant The corner of his mouth twitched, and he hurriedly took off a jade pendant from his waist, put it in the palm of the little eunuch and respectfully said: "Tai Hao has a bad memory, but he forgot to return this jade pendant to you, please take care of him. "

"Hahaha, Wang Zhujun is talented and intelligent, and he will have a bright future in the future." The little eunuch put the jade pendant in his pocket with satisfaction, and said some compliments with an embarrassed smile.

"Then thank you for your auspicious words." Although Wang Taihao felt sorry for giving away his jade pendant for nothing, he still had to show a smirk in return, and then walked up the steps and walked towards the hall.

After entering the main hall, I saw Jiaodong King Liu Xiongqu and his fourth aunt Wang Yue sitting on the main seat in front. On both sides were the Xiangguo and ministers of Jiaodong Kingdom, and some dancing girls were dancing in the middle.

"It seems that it is a special banquet for those envoys from the Wu Kingdom just now."

Naturally, Wang Taihao knew that it was impossible for the King of Jiaodong to hold a special banquet for him. This banquet should be held for those envoys from the Wu Kingdom just now, but he just happened to meet the time when the banquet was about to end.

"But Taeho? Come in quickly!"

The Jiaodong King Liu Xiongqu obviously knew Wang Taihao, so he waved his hand and called Wang Taihao who was standing at the door.

"Thank you king!"

Wang Taihao thanked him again, then got up again, took off his shoes, stepped on the cloth socks, walked quickly into the center of the hall in small steps, and then knelt down again: "Wang Taihao, the head of the Wang family, pay homage to the king!"

"Hey, Taihao, do we still need to do this between us? Hurry up, that's your place, and this banquet will be held just for you." King Jiaodong laughed happily, pointing forward casually Although he said that Wang Taihao didn't need to be so polite, he was actually very happy that Wang Taihao was so polite to him, so he turned his head and smiled at the beloved concubine Wang Yue in his arms: "Yueer, what are you doing?" Eldest nephew, the widow loves it very much, it would be great if he was my son, haha!"

Wang Taihao, who had just taken his seat, sensed the opportunity, so he hurriedly shouted respectfully to King Jiaodong: "Your Majesty's benevolence and righteousness are well known in the world. If I can be the righteous son of my Majesty, I, Wang Taihao, will be lucky in my life!"

"Hahaha! Well, well! My son Taihao is like a tiger with wings added to his wings, so why not worry about a big event! Hahaha!" Today's Jiaodong Wang Liu Xiongqu is very happy, and for some reason, he simply recognized Wang Taihao as his son. Yoshiko.
