Immemorial Sacred Capital!
Heaven's Equal Marquis Manor
Heaven's Equal Marquis sat in a large hall with his eyes closed. His fingers were gently tapping the table beside him with a faint smile on his face, as if he was thinking about something.
Mister Shui Jing and a black-robed man were standing before him.
"Marquis, it's a pity about what happened yesterday!" The black-robed man said.
"What's a pity? Ling Feng, don't you feel that things are getting more and more interesting?" Heaven's Equal stopped tapping and opened his eyes.
"Interesting? I don't find it interesting. "The black-robed Ling Feng shook his head.
"Shui Jing, what do you think?" Heaven's Equal Marquis looked at Shui Jing beside him.
"I don't understand what you mean." Shui Jing shook his head.
"Don't understand? Haha, it's fine if you don't understand. Qianyou is very rational, and it's even harder to move her heart than that so-called Ice Mountain Prideful Lady. But in just a few years, she's actually been moved by Zhong Shan. This Zhong Shan is truly an expert in terms of men and women. It's only interesting to have such an expert as an opponent. "Heaven's Equal Marquis smiled.
"Are you that confident?" Shui Jing stared at Heaven's Equal Marquis.
"That's right, I'm that confident. Do you know the origin of my title? Who dares to have such a title in the entire Daluo Dynasty? Even the four princes don't have such an honor. Heaven's Equal, Heaven's Equal, who dares to be Heaven's Equal? Only me! "Heaven's Equal Marquis said with pride.
"Congratulations, Marquis!" Shui Jing and Ling Feng said at the same time.
"You will know the reason for Heaven's Equal in the future. However, Shui Jing, do you have something to say to me? "Heaven's Equal Marquis' tone changed as he looked at Shui Jing with a smile.
"Yes, Marquis. In nine days, I will be heading to Princess Qianyou's residence for a banquet. I seek your permission!" Shui Jing immediately said.
"Oh? Qianyou invited you? "Heaven's Equal Marquis was surprised.
"Yes." Shui Jing immediately nodded.
Staring at Shui Jing, Heaven's Equal Marquis' expression changed as he revealed a meaningful smile, "Is Jiuniang also invited?"
Taking a deep breath, Shui Jing's mood suddenly changed, "Yes."
"Haha, alright, I'll allow you to go. However, you have to help me pass a message to Zhong Shan. "Heaven's Equal's eyes flashed.
"Marquis, please speak." Elder Shui Jing exhaled.
"Tell him that in two months, if he can't enter the top three in the imperial examinations, he'll have to kowtow to me when he sees me!" Heaven's Equal suddenly laughed.
"Yes!" Shui Jing replied immediately.
"Marquis, why is it that if he doesn't enter the top three, he will have to kowtow to you in the future?" Ling Feng asked doubtfully.
"That's because he was able to protect the princess this time. It's a great merit, hahaha!" Heaven's Equal laughed.
However, Ling Feng was still puzzled. Why did he have to kowtow for such a great merit? Could it be that he didn't need to kowtow just because he didn't have a great merit?
At the same time, in a corner of the business street in Immemorial Sacred Capital, there was a small shop.
The shop was located in the most remote corner of the city. It wasn't that it was inconspicuous, but that it was impossible to find if one didn't look for it seriously.
The shop's name was Jifan Zhai. At the bottom corner of Jifan Zhai's signboard, there was a small golden word 'Rong'.
The Darong Chamber of Commerce was a shop in Immemorial Sacred Capital.
The shop was closed today, but the door was slightly open. Ah Da stood at the door and waited while Zhong Shan walked in alone.
In a side hall, an isolation flag array was set up.
Zhong Shan sat at the head of the table, holding a cup of tea and smiling. Standing in front of him was the crown prince of the Daikon State, Zhong Cheng.
"Zheng 'er, you did well this time. If you want the Darong Chamber of Commerce to gain a foothold in Immemorial Sacred Capital and quickly gather resources, Jifan Zhai is very suitable. It's unconventional and the most ordinary thing. It won't make anyone jealous. As long as you work hard with the managers and the local tyrants, your luck will not decline." Zhong Shan praised.
"Thank you, Father!" Zhong Cheng immediately smiled.
"Here, you and I are not monarch and vassal. We are father and son." Zhong Shan said.
"Yes, foster father!" Zhong Zheng immediately replied with a smile.
"Father, according to your request, I will remove the 'Zhong' and use the 'Zheng' name. Jifan Zhai has been open for a while now, so I'm just waiting for you to come and organize it." Zhong Cheng said again.
"I'm not worried when you do things. However, I have something for you to do this time. If you do well, it will be a promotion for my Jifan Zhai. "Zhong Shan said.
"Father, please give me your orders." Zhong Cheng said.
Zhong Shan smiled and took out a jade scroll, gently handing it to Zhong Cheng.
Zhong Cheng took it in his hand and checked it. Then, he frowned and looked at Zhong Shan in surprise. "Father, is it really that exaggerated?"
"Everything will be in place in nine days. I will let Princess Qian You talk to the subordinates and cooperate with you. The time is a bit tight, but isn't it often like this in Xuanjing?" Zhong Shan said.
"Yes!" Zhong Cheng nodded.
"In the next nine days, there may not be any rest time. At that time, I will let Princess Qian You transfer a large number of experts, even some Nascent Soul experts, for you to use. It will be done as soon as possible. After nine days, I want to see the results. "Zhong Shan said.
"Father, don't worry. With Princess Qian You's instructions and a large number of cultivators working together, there won't be any problems." Zhong Cheng smiled.
"Good. You are now the president of the Darong Chamber of Commerce. This battle must be fought beautifully." Zhong Shan said.
"Yes!" Zhong Cheng replied with a smile.
Nine days later. At night, in Princess Qian You's residence.
Zhong Shan and Princess Qian You stood in the square outside the Orchid Palace, looking at the magnificent night sky together.
"Sir, you borrowed nearly ten thousand people from me. These ten thousand cultivators were borrowed from my father. What do you need so many people for? Where did they go? "Princess Qian You stared at Zhong Shan and asked.
"In order to fulfill the promise I made to the princess ten days ago!" Zhong Shan smiled.
"Oh? Ten thousand people? Without using spells to create a scene even grander than those millions of flower petals? "Princess Qian You said in surprise.
"That's right. However, the princess has invited people again today. We should wait for them to arrive before we start. Otherwise, if we get too engrossed and they don't notice us when they arrive, it will be bad!" Zhong Shan smiled.
"No, they are not outsiders. This time, I only invited two people mainly to repay Shui Jing's help." Princess Qian You said.
"Oh? Shui Jing? Repay him? Who else is there? "Zhong Shan asked doubtfully.
"There is another one, the Grand Xuan King's Ninth Princess Consort. It was her existence that tied down Shui Jing, this shocking talent, to the point that he was willing to be a subordinate of the Grand Xuan King and not ask for an official position in the Heavenly Empire. "Princess Qian You said.
At this time, Ah Er quickly flew over and said, "Princess, Mister Shui Jing is here."
"Let him in!" Princess Qian You said.
"Yes!" Ah Er flew out immediately.
Soon, Mister Shui Jing was brought in by Ah Er. Looking at Mister Shui Jing, Zhong Shan's eyes lit up. Mister Shui Jing was way too abnormal today. Mister Shui Jing was dressed very brightly. He had never seen him like this before.
In the past, the Mister Shui Jing in Zhong Shan's heart only wanted him to be clean and tidy. But now, he looked like a handsome uncle. He kept his feather fan and held a folding fan in his hand. He looked like an elegant gentleman.
"Shui Jing greets Princess Qian You and Mister Zhong Shan." Mister Shui Jing said immediately.
"Mister Shui Jing, you are …" Zhong Shan was surprised.
"Mister, don't mind it. Every time I invite Shui Jing over, he will change his style and dress up elegantly." Princess Qian You smiled.
"Thank you, princess, for your help." Shui Jing said to Princess Qian You immediately.
"No worries. I haven't seen my Senior Sister in a long time. Since she's back, I invited her over to catch up." Princess Qian You said.
"Thank you!" Shui Jing said again.
Smiling, Princess Qian You looked at Ah Da who was flying over.
"Princess, the Ninth Princess Consort of Da Xuan is here." Ah Da said.
"Hurry and invite her in! Erm, get her sedan bearers to wait outside. Don't let her in. "Princess Qian You said immediately.
"Yes!" Ah Da flew out quickly.
Not long after, Ah Da came back with a woman who was dressed extravagantly.
The woman's looks were not outstanding, but she had a rosy face and round cheeks. Her eyes were playful. Even before she spoke, Zhong Shan could tell that she was a cheerful and lively girl.
"Qian You, you're back? You've been away for so long. "The woman said excitedly. She grabbed Princess Qian You's hand and looked happy.
"Senior Sister, you are a princess now. You have to be more dignified!" Princess Qian You smiled.
"Alright, alright. You're not an outsider. Erm, Shui Jing? You're here too? "The woman smiled.
"Shui Jing greets the princess." Shui Jing immediately went forward. When he looked at the woman, his eyes flashed with an indescribable pain.
"Every time I come to Qian You's place, I see you. Are you working under my husband, but secretly working under Qian You? Hmph, I'm going to tell my husband when I get back." The woman immediately teased.
"It's all a coincidence." Shui Jing immediately shook his head. He looked at the woman in a daze, but didn't dare to look too much, as if he was afraid that the woman would notice.
"Alright, alright. I still have someone here." Princess Qian You smiled.
Only then did the woman look at Zhong Shan.
"This one is Zhong Shan, the princess' bodyguard. Greetings to the princess." Zhong Shan immediately said.
"Oh? Golden Core? Qian You, when did you find a Golden Core bodyguard? "The woman immediately looked at Princess Qian You and asked curiously.
"He's my husband." Princess Qian You looked at Zhong Shan and said.
"Husband? Erm, the kind like Shui Jing? "The woman immediately asked.
"You can say that." Princess Qian You nodded. (To be continued, if you want to know what will happen next, please go to www.qidian.com, there are more chapters. Support the author, support the original reading!)
