She looked at his back with an uncertain expression on her face.
When did I ever flirt with this guy? Also, what do you mean by 'little girl'?
For so many years, there were people who called her a Daoist Master, and there were also people who called her a fairy. However, this was the first time she heard someone call her a little girl. Moreover, it was someone who called her that in front of her.
Was that Qi Zixiao's brother? That butcher from back then? He was thousands of miles away and didn't know he was here, but Zhao Prince Consort …
She gently gritted her teeth and heaved a sigh of relief. Her face returned to its original tranquil state.
Ren Baqian stomped his feet in anger for a long time. He vowed that he would go and raid Tong Zhenye and Qin Chuan's houses tomorrow. In any case, other than the two of them, there shouldn't be anyone else.
Then, as if he suddenly thought of something, he turned to look at Li Yuanzhu and cupped his fists. "I'm sorry, Spiritual Master. I spoke without thinking!"
"It's nothing! Zhao Prince Consort, you don't have to worry too much about it. This kind of experience is also quite special! "
Ren Baqian laughed and apologized again before saying, "Brother-in-law and Protector General Xi, there will be a group of experts heading to the Sixty Thousand Mountains this time. If you find traces of the alien races, don't alert them. This is a very important matter. I estimate that they will arrive in five months. "
"Who is it?" Qi Ziting asked.
"You must have heard that in order to fight against the foreign races, Her Majesty has taken the lead and established an organization. These experts are the deacons of the organization. You should have heard of many of their names, like Ma Hongyu, Xu Gongsou, Lin Dong, Gao Yi, Gluttonous Shi Hao …" Ren Baqian listed more than a dozen names in a row.
"Humph! These guys! "Qi Ziting snorted from afar.
"If it was back then …"
"Forget it, a hero doesn't boast about his past achievements!" Ren Baqian interrupted Qi Ziting's plan to reminisce about the glorious past and said, "In any case, these experts are working hard for the human race, so I have to say hello to you first!"
"Alright, I got it," Qi Ziting, who had been interrupted, said resentfully. "I won't look for trouble with them!"
The corners of Xu Gongsou's mouth twitched.
If it was the Qi Ziting of the past, he would still have some confidence in his words.
However, ever since his leg was broken, Qi Ziting's strength had decreased greatly. Who could he find trouble with?
Furthermore, everyone didn't have a good impression of Qi Ziting. Back then, his reputation was notorious outside of Dayao, and many practitioners from the Yun Nation had died at his hands.
If it was another occasion, it was hard to say who would find trouble with who. Did he really think that they were the same as the martial artists of the Yun Nation who had died in his hands?
But for Qi Zixiao's sake, it wasn't good to be calculative with him now.
However, it would be a different story if he came looking for trouble.
He then spent some time teaching these experts how to use the radio station and how to charge it.
For those who had never come into contact with this kind of technology, it still took some time. It took a full hour for everyone to master it.
During this period, although no one said anything, they were amazed in their hearts.
He had seen too many new things in Dayao this time.
Whether it was the radio station, the street lights, or the water tower that was being installed in Lan City, water was pumped through electric pumps to dozens of water towers that were built in Lan City and then flowed through pipes to each household.
Although only Beihong District had been completed, it was said that this water supply equipment was provided to all the people in Lan City.
In addition, the ox carts in Lan City also caught their attention. This was because the frames of the carriages in Lan City weren't as bumpy as horse carriages. After understanding them, they found out that the tires of these carriages were wrapped in a layer of rubber, and the interior of the carriages was said to use something called "cushioning."
Not to mention the potatoes, sweet potatoes, and jack-o '-lanterns all over the streets. Even the poor people could eat their fill.
These experiences refreshed these experts' understanding of Dayao.
Based on the current situation, Dayao might be able to catch up with Great Xia in some aspects in a decade.
These changes were all brought about by Zhao Prince Consort.
Given the strength of Qi Zixiao and the aboriginals, coupled with the strange things that Zhao Prince Consort had, it had to be said that Qi Zixiao's foresight wasn't bad.
Ren Baqian wondered where she found such a person.
…
"When are those people leaving?" the empress asked casually during dinner.
In the past, the empress rarely spoke when she ate. Perhaps she had been infected by Ren Baqian, but she had developed the habit of chatting while eating.
"Do you dislike them, Your Majesty?" Ren Baqian asked with a smile.
"Yes," the empress said bluntly. "However, I know how to deal with them.
In fact, although both sides have been hostile for so many years, these feelings will ease with more interaction in the future. "
"We'll talk about it when the time comes!" the empress said after drinking a glass of wine.
Ren Baqian looked at the wine glass in the empress's hand, rolled his eyes, and said, "I met Minister Tong and Minister Qin today, and they said that drinking alcohol isn't good for the fetus."
"Both of them?" The empress looked at Ren Baqian suspiciously.
"Your Majesty is pregnant with the future empress of Dayao, so they will definitely be concerned!" Ren Baqian laughed.
"I will talk to them tomorrow!" The empress narrowed her eyes, and a cold glint flashed in them.
"In any case, I believe in Your Majesty. Your Majesty's understanding of your own body isn't something that outsiders can speculate about! They shouldn't have speculated about Your Majesty's private affairs. "Ren Baqian chuckled.
"Hmph!" The cold glint in the empress's eyes intensified. When she looked up at Ren Baqian, the coldness in her eyes eased. "Of course, I know my own body."
Ren Baqian looked at the row of calcium milk beside him. Recently, the empress had reduced her alcohol tolerance from two bottles a day to one bottle.
He was quite satisfied with this result.
The next day, many experts set off with two radio stations. A group of winged cavalry warriors accompanied them to avoid any trouble along the way.
When Ren Baqian returned to the palace, he saw Tong Zhengye and Qin Chuan coming out with bruised noses and swollen faces. When they saw Ren Baqian, they didn't know what to say.
"Ministers, what's going on?" Ren Baqian asked with a friendly smile.
"I don't know who told Her Majesty that I was speculating about Your Majesty's private affairs. Could it be Zhao Prince Consort?" Tong Zhengye asked with an unfriendly expression.
"What private affairs were the two of you discussing? Discussing Her Majesty is also discussing me. Let me hear it. "Ren Baqian brushed it off completely.
"Hmph!" Tong Zhengye snorted.
"Could it be that the two of you revealed each other's secrets?" Ren Baqian asked casually.
Tong Zhengye immediately became vigilant and asked, "What do you mean, Zhao Prince Consort?"
"Nothing, just a casual guess. Or did one of you accidentally say something that Her Majesty found out about? However, I'm really curious — what exactly were the two of you discussing in private? "
Tong Zhengye ignored Ren Baqian's question and snorted, "If Zhao Prince Consort wants to sow discord between the two of us, then forget it!"
Ren Baqian laughed in his heart. Of course, there was no need to sow discord between the two of them.
Sure enough, Qin Chuan immediately turned hostile and said, "What relationship do I have with you? On the other hand, my saber wants to build a relationship with you. Why don't the two of you get closer? "
Tong Zhengye's face turned black as he turned around and scolded, "If it weren't for your brainless actions, would I have been punished by Her Majesty?"
"You are obviously the one who has been doing shameful things all day long! I am the one who has been implicated! "Qin Chuan didn't back down.
Seeing that the two of them were quarreling again, Ren Baqian leaned against the palace gate, took out a bag of melon seeds, and watched the show.
In less than a minute, the two of them switched from quarreling to fighting. Qin Chuan used his ultimate technique, the Nine Chain Chains, while Tong Zhengye retaliated with the Thirteen Chain Chains …
For a moment, the square in front of the palace was filled with the two of them.
Ren Baqian was helping them count how many floor tiles they had broken. He still had to send the bill to their houses later.
Eh? Whose corpse was it that was shaken out of the ground by Qin Chuan's kick?
