Domineering space queen

Chapter 729
When the team set off on the second day, Heng Yuanba and Tao Yao came to bid farewell. They decided to go to Daishan to practice in seclusion!
Shu Tonghun didn't care!

Zhao Wang was so happy that he didn't close his eyes all night when he learned that the national teacher taught his son a set of formulas for immortality!

He was also afraid that others would be jealous and dare not show off. His son wanted to hide from the world and practice, and he also raised his hands in approval!
The troops set off again, and the rest went smoothly, and finally arrived at a majestic city in the evening!
This place is a border town on the border with Beirong. The city guards opened the city gate early and waited by the roadside!
After entering the city, the group was arranged in a palace in the city!
It is said that it was built by the Supreme Emperor in the past, and he was demented before it was completed. The King of Zhennan was afraid that he would not be able to convince the crowd when he was in power, so he would not leave the capital easily!

After the completion of this palace, only a few people are left for daily maintenance, and Hengxuan and his party are the first batch to move in!

Shutong naturally occupies the largest and best yard!

That night, there was a big banquet, Shutong was really impatient to listen to the officials' flattery, so he ate in his courtyard!

Although she was the only one, there were all kinds of delicacies on the table, most of them were local specialties, and most of them were meat, but they had a unique flavor!

After dinner, Hongxia came in excitedly, "Master, do you think this is beautiful?"

She is holding a tray in her hand, which is colorful and as bright as clouds!
But it is a mass of gauze, unfolding, like clouds in the sky, the thin and gorgeous gauze scarf, embroidered with gold and silver threads to create beautiful pictures, which makes people dizzying!

Shutong nodded secretly, "It's pretty, where did it come from?"

Hongxia grinned, "On the way into the city, the servants saw women all over the street wearing such beautiful scarves. I asked Xiaoluzi to buy them on the street just now. Master likes them!"

A total of four square sand towels are brought, and the four colors are very exquisite and gorgeous!

Shutong did notice that the people in the border city dressed differently from those in the capital city!
It seems that women like heavy makeup and gorgeous clothes!

Some women walking alone should be women from ordinary families, and they are also well-dressed. Almost all women will wear such a beautiful veil!

"Master likes it too, how about I put it on for you, how about trying it?" Seeing Hongxia's flushed face in excitement, Shutong was a little moved!
At this time, the second master was outside the door and replied, "Master! The little one has brought you something!"

Hongxia hurriedly opened the door, only to see Erdang came in with a group of people carrying seven or eight trays.

"These are bought from the street, and they are all kinds of local costumes!"

Hongxia was pleasantly surprised, "Butler Tang is still thoughtful and has a good eye!"

But it turned out that the second master brought not only beautiful veils, but also local special costumes!
The second master gave her a frightened look, and he was a little younger than this little girl, so to serve the master, he had to be fully prepared in every way!

"These are clothes, this is jewelry, and these are the veils that local women must wear. The city is windy and sandy here, and women are used to wearing a scarf whether they are at home or going out!"

"Don't look at this small one, it takes a lot of effort to embroider it, it's not cheap!"

Although he has only just arrived in the border town, he has walked around the streets and has already learned about the local customs and habits!
"This thing is not only a woman's clothing, but also a family property. Even a poor family must do its best to buy a suit for its daughter. Otherwise, that woman has the best character, and no one will marry her!"

Hongxia exclaimed, "If you are so poor that you can't afford food, do you want to buy this body?"

Erdang laughed and said, "Poor people have their own ways! Of course, rich people's clothes should be as gorgeous as possible, with gold, silver, and jewelry embellishments!"

"This poor family uses ordinary silk threads. Although they look similar, the prices vary widely! Besides, the local women learned embroidery from an early age. These are all made by themselves, and they can also be sold to support their families!"

Hongxia nodded, Xiaoluzi bought back a few items that were already pretty enough, and the ones brought back by the second leader are even more gorgeous!
The costumes are quite different from those in the Central Plains, and the skirts and cuffs are even more studded with gemstones of various colors, which is extremely dazzling!
"It's so beautiful, the servant girl dressed up for the master, how about we go shopping?"

Shutong is still thinking about learning the two-stroke whip technique, a little undecided!

Er Dangjia laughed and said, "Master, you should go shopping in the streets. The customs here are completely different from those in the capital. Most of the streets are women!"

Shutong was surprised, he has been here for several years, and he can feel the patriarchy here!
Although she has surpassed ordinary people and is not restricted, most women still seldom go out, unless they are running around for a living and have no choice but to show their faces!
The second master talked eloquently, "At the beginning, he followed Emperor Taizu to conquer the country. After the world was settled, one of them voluntarily stayed in the border town to guard the gate of the country. Emperor Taizu named him King Yi, and this place was his fiefdom!"

"The city lords of the past generations are the descendants of King Yi, but it is difficult for the descendants of King Yi to be heirs. This generation of city lords is a woman, and there is only one only daughter under her knees!"

"The city lords of two consecutive generations are all women, and the status of women in this city has been greatly improved!"

Hongxia exclaimed again, "Can a woman also be a city lord, a prince?"

The Erdang family laughed and said, "Before the Zhennan King was in trouble, he had already cut off the title of King Yi, but this Xin family has been entrenched in the border city for several generations and is very prestigious. The city owner is still her family!"

Shutong nodded, and suddenly suspected that the purpose of Hengxuan's trip was to take back the city by the way?
She doesn't want to pursue these political issues!
However, the second master lowered his voice mysteriously, "The little one was wandering outside, but I heard a few gossips!"

"What gossip?" It was Hongxia who asked quickly again, and it was because her master was always generous that she dared to interrupt a few times!
The second master also wants to show off, after all, the master also likes to listen to gossip and gossip!

Immediately said, "City Lord Xin's only daughter has turned eighteen, and she has a pretty face. I don't know how many suitors she has, but the City Lord has no intention of finding a husband for her!"

"I heard that they plan to send this beauty to the palace to accompany the king!"

"Oh?" Shutong wondered, "Her family plans to hand over this city?"

The second master laughed and said, "Probably not! It is said that the city lord recruited a handsome gentleman himself, and planned to have another son and a half daughter to continue the inheritance of the Xin family!"

Shutong blinked, "This is to give up the eldest daughter, is there some family grievance in it?"

The second master smiled and said, "It's hard to say, the heirs of the Xin family are difficult, even if they give birth to a daughter, they are raised like a baby, find a husband for her, and continue the incense!"

"This City Lord Xin also recruited a husband in the same way. After marriage, she only had one daughter. Her family has always had few children, and she loves her daughter in every possible way!"

"It's a pity that her ex-husband committed a crime and annoyed her, so she kicked him out of the house with a divorce letter!"

"Divorce letter?" Hongxia exclaimed again, "I've never heard of a woman divorce her husband, this female city lord is really amazing!"

Shutong sneered, "A man can divorce a woman, and a woman can naturally divorce a man. What did he do to make the female city lord go to war?"

The second master laughed and said, "It's not a secret at all. I inquired about it on purpose. It is said that the son-in-law was unwilling to be alone. He hooked up in the city lord's mansion and was caught by the city lord on the spot. Naturally, he couldn't be tolerated!"
