I, who disguised myself as a woman, turned out to be a queen! ?

Chapter 668: The World Cultural Expo opens!
After waiting for so long, the world will finally begin.

On the last day of the Qingming Festival, before dawn, every household in the big city of Luoan had already turned on the lights, and the streets were crowded with people, all heading towards Anshefang.

Some people were wearing the exclusive clothes distributed by the officials for participants, looking particularly impressive. They were ordinary people with no money and no power, but they had such a skill. They didn't expect that it could bring glory to Daxia. How could they not be proud of it?

Moreover, I heard that the Queen said in person that no matter how big or small the matter is, the best thing is to win honor for Daxia and not be inferior to other countries.

When passers-by on the street saw these people participating in the meeting, their faces were filled with envy. Who could have thought that such an unpopular craft would be turned into such a thing.

Some people also shouted "Come on!"

With the previous Zoroastrian assassination attempt on His Majesty and the Queen, even if the government released the news and all the conspirators have been caught, the people are still angry. So it doesn’t matter if we lose to other countries today, but we cannot lose to those Zoroastrian people from the Western Regions!
Anshefang is very large and is divided into several areas, ranging from literature to martial arts, from crafts such as making sugar figures to tea and acrobatics.

Although everyone knew that this world meeting would last for ten days, and that every day there would be traditional cultural displays that had never been seen before for the people to visit and enjoy, the excitement of the first day was the most novel.

Especially on this last day, we heard that there was a military exercise of our Great Xia outside the city, but the people didn’t know whether it was true or not and could only wait.

Yu Taohua got up early today. Although she was always harsh in her words, drank, and had recently developed the habit of playing mahjong, it did not affect her habit of getting up before dawn every morning to practice martial arts.

But that doesn't mean Yu Taohua has to join in the fun early in the morning. Last night, when Yu Taohua was playing mahjong and chatting with Xun Kuang, she learned from Xun Kuang that today was the first day for many officials to go, and there were many things like opening ceremonies.

Xun Kuang knew that Yu Taohua wanted to join in the fun, so he asked them to come around noon. Anyway, the Empress and His Majesty would not be coming, so there would be no point in them going. And it was a good thing that His Majesty and the Empress did not come, otherwise who knows what kind of rules would be broken.

Yu Taohua and Xun Kuang felt that they had met each other too late these days, especially when it came to how to get money from Yuan Ruxi's pocket to buy wine. As soon as they looked at each other, they came up with ideas.

Yuan Ruxi was helpless, but also willing to be fooled.

Instead, Su Wan'er was unhappy. Her master hadn't even married yet, and with just that little money, how could he have been cheated by you? So every time, Su Wan'er would specifically explain this to Yuan Ruxi.

But Yuan Ruxi didn't listen for once.

This caused Su Wan'er to call Mr. Shuiyun.

Mr. Shuiyun and Yuan Ruxi are not like Xun Kuang and Ji Shuying. It is said that one day Yuan Ruxi expressed his feelings to Mr. Shuiyun under the moonlight.

Yuan Ruxi wanted to marry Mr. Shuiyun, but Mr. Shuiyun knew the path Yuan Ruxi was going to take and could not bear to disturb her, so he said that there was no need for marriage and that he could talk about it after your business was done. If you just want to be responsible for me and want to marry me out of fear of delaying me, then it is better not to marry me, and I am willing to wait for you.

After Mr. Shuiyun heard this from Su Wan'er, he smiled, then took out some silver from his cabinet and asked Su Wan'er to give it to Yuan Ruxi, saying, "Your master is very happy these days, Wan'er, don't make trouble. Give this money to your master. If it's not enough, come back for more."

Su Wan'er was puzzled and unwilling in her heart, but she still obediently gave the silver to her master.

But Su Wan'er still didn't understand. How could she be happy after being cheated? She thought that when she saw her elder sister again, she would definitely want me. Why?

At about noon, Yu Taohua went out and met Shewang and Li Cai, whom she had seen once or twice since she came to Beijing, as well as Xun Kuang and Mr. Shuiyun.

They were all in pairs, which made Yu Taohua wonder whether she should bring her wife, son and daughter with her. But then she changed her mind and felt that it was inappropriate. After all, they came to Beijing to ask about the sword, and she didn't know what would happen to her.

The person who wanted to ask about the sword couldn't feel or detect anything, but he could be sure that the person was really alive, and if Yu Taohua guessed correctly, the person was in the palace.

Once, Yu Taohua went to Yan Yunxiao to ask about this matter.

Yan Yunxiao just shook his head, unwilling to say more about it, or rather, not to mention the Empress Dowager at all.

Yu Taohua was depressed, but there was nothing she could do. She would never give up on this sword, but she just had to wait for a long time. Yu Taohua was a little worried. Although they were only separated for a few days, she really missed her wife and two children.

When several people walked towards An She Fang, many people were in a hurry on the street. Some people who came out said, "It's so lively." "Oh, why didn't I know that old Zhang was so good at blowing sugar figures? And old Li, that old guy is so good at hiding his skills. The porcelain he made looks like a living person." "I went to the martial arts field, it was so exciting. I heard that these were only two people of the fourth and fifth ranks. How exciting would the seventh, eighth, eighth and ninth ranks be."

Everyone agrees.

Not so lively!

Compared with the Lantern Festival, it is not much different.

Several people walked along the street and looked at the grand occasion. Shewang sighed: "Sometimes we really have to sigh at the Queen's intelligence."

Li Cai nodded.

The couple have actually been staying at the Shen Ce Mansion these days. Yan Yunxiao wrote in a letter, "Either I'll go over, or you two can come by yourselves."

Not to mention the couple, even the old mountain master became anxious. He cursed for a long time, saying what a piece of shit you Yan Yunxiao!

But when he saw that his son and daughter-in-law didn't move, he became anxious and scolded them, asking them to pack up and go to Beijing. Could it be that he really wanted Yan Yunxiao to come?
The reason these two were called here was not just to forge swords, but also to bring other things. The couple had never seen those things before, but they felt they were extremely magical.

Fortunately, after these days, I have fulfilled my mission, but I am a little slow with the sword. But as Yan Yunxiao said, there is no need to be in a hurry and I can just take my time.

The two knew that Yan Yunxiao wanted to forge this sword for the Queen Mother. Especially when they saw the swords that Yan Yunxiao took out to melt, they knew they couldn't be impatient, as this was a big job.

Yuan Ruxi looked at Mr. Shuiyun and asked, "Where is Mr. Bai going to the exhibition tomorrow?"

Mr. Shuiyun and Baiqi are considered senior and junior brothers and sisters.

After nodding, Mr. Shuiyun said, "Brother said that the Queen sent someone to find him, hoping that brother can see if he can paint this magnificent scene, so brother should not go there these days, and may look at it from a high place or somewhere else."

Yuan Ruxi nodded. It would be a wonderful thing if he could really record Luoan like this in a painting and pass it down through the ages.

Yu Taohua looked at Mr. Shuiyun. She didn't say a single word to Mr. Shuiyun. Instead, when she saw him for the first time, she immediately pointed at Yuan Ruxi and said to Mr. Shuiyun, "Tell me why you like this guy!"

Mr. Shuiyun smiled and replied, "I liked it with my eyes."

Very good, Yu Taohua didn’t know what to say, she really just saw it with her eyes.

The second time was when Yu Taohua tricked Yuan Ruxi into paying for a good meal for him, but unexpectedly Mr. Shuiyun came over halfway through the meal and ordered a lot of dishes. In the end, Mr. Shuiyun paid the bill and said to Yu Taohua, "If Brother Yu wants to eat more good food, go directly to Qingya Restaurant. You can write down the bill first and I'll pay for it later."

This made Yu Taohua a little worried, and she couldn't figure it out, but in the end she simply stopped thinking about it. She sneaked into Yuan Ruxi's room in the middle of the night, and then looked at Yuan Ruxi and said, "You kid, hurry up and marry Shuiyun for me, otherwise, believe it or not, I will break your sword! If you don't have money, I will borrow it for you. I see that Sister Liu has money, and she will definitely lend it to me if I go to borrow money, not to mention Xinglan. At worst, I will go to Sister Yunxiao."

It's not easy to meet a girl you like, and it's even harder to meet a very good girl you like.

Just like when Yu Taohua came down from Jianshan Mountain, she became famous in one battle, cut off the sword of the old master of Jianshan Mountain, and ranked among the top ten in the world. At a miscellaneous soup stall at the foot of the mountain, she met a little girl. The little girl looked at Yu Taohua and said, "I can give you a bowl of soup, and you don't have to pay me. You just have to come back and pay me back when you become rich in the future." Yu Taohua had just finished a fight, her clothes were tattered, and her sword was casually hung on her waist. The scabbard was broken, so she could only be stuck on her waist casually, right?

At that time, Yu Taohua looked at the woman, but actually didn't feel anything.

Can I, Yu Taohua, be considered a beggar? This is ridiculous!

So he turned around and left, not knowing where to go, as if he had no destination. He always went wherever he wanted. When he got tired of it, he changed direction, doing whatever he wanted.

It was only the next day after leaving that place that Yu Taohua returned to the stall because she had been thinking about that bowl of offal all night.

The woman didn't care. She served Yu Taohua a bowl and said, "I'll keep a record, so don't even think about not paying it back."

Yu Taohua chuckled.

For the first time, Yu Taohua stayed in one place for more than a month, and a bowl of mixed soup every day became like her daily routine.

On the last day, Yu Taohua "borrowed" some money from Jianshan, thinking of paying it back.

I had just walked to the offal soup restaurant when I saw the woman.

The woman saw Yu Taohua and said, "I'm coming. Wait a moment."

Then he served Yu Taohua the offal soup with ease.

Looking at the offal soup with chopped green onions floating in the bowl, you say it tastes good, it tastes really good, but actually it’s not that good, but it seems that Yu Taohua has gotten used to it.

Because for the first time I started to think about whether I should just stay here without paying.

When Yu Taohua realized that he had this thought, he scared himself, because how could a man like him, Yu Taohua, who had wind in his blood, have such a thought?
The woman came over, holding a notebook, and looked at Yu Taohua, "It's been a month, are you planning to stay at my house?"

Yu Taohua could actually take the gold ingot out of her arms and leave, just as he thought.

But he looked at the woman, smiled and said, "You haven't found a job, have you?"

The woman rolled her eyes and said, "How shameless! If my father hadn't agreed, I wouldn't have let you eat for so long."

Then she turned around, but after two steps, the woman looked back and said, "You don't get tired of eating offal soup every day. I'll make noodles for you tomorrow. Do you want to eat it?"

Yu Taohua was stunned for a moment, then smiled and nodded.

Yu Taohua herself didn't know why she nodded, but once the thought was moved, the intention would give rise to the cause and effect, which is the truth.

That day, Yu Taohua threw several swords on Jianshan, and one of them, named "Wanderer", trembled, and even the swords on the entire Jianshan trembled along with it.

Yu Taohua's sword intent also reached a higher level on this day.

Yu Taohua said, "Bai Qi is actually not kind."

Yu Taohua continued, "My junior sister was thrown aside by a heartless man, and he didn't even say anything to vent her anger."

While speaking, Yu Taohua looked at Yuan Ruxi and almost cursed her directly, "You, did you hear me?"

Yuan Ruxi sighed.

Between kendo and life, Yu Taohua chose the latter, so she did not appear in the martial arts world for many years.

But Yuan Ruxi didn't know what to choose. He wanted to choose life, marry Shuiyun, and then teach. He didn't think about creating his own path.

But Shuiyun was unwilling.

There was also a sense of unwillingness in his heart, so he didn't insist, but he couldn't explain it. Especially after meeting Wan'er, Yuan Ruxi saw hope and became even more unwilling.

However, Yuan Ruxi talked about this with Mr. Shuiyun, and Mr. Shuiyun smiled and said, "Then go ahead and try it. I said I'll wait for you, and I'm not going anywhere."

Mr. Shuiyun smiled lightly but didn't say much.

Seeing that more and more people were walking on the road to Anshefang, Mr. Shuiyun smiled helplessly. He knew he should have used some connections earlier. However, after looking at Yuan Ruxi beside him and then at the long queue, he didn't mind queuing.

Li Cai saw something and couldn't help but ask, "Isn't that Qing Shu and the others?"

Right where the people were queuing, Liu Xuer's three disciples stood at the end.

Yu Taohua looked over from a distance and immediately sighed: "Hey, if I go over there, the third girl will be worried and anxious again. My charm has nowhere to go. Lao Yuan, Lao She, if the third girl insists on going to the world club with me, remember to stop her. Brother has a wife and children, and can't do such things."

As she said this, Yu Taohua was stunned because she noticed the person right behind the three of them.

It was a woman, wearing a red dress and a bamboo hat, and her face could not be seen. She was an ordinary person, but
Yu Taohua was confused for a moment, but didn't think too much about it the next moment.

I just think that this girl, even though I can’t see her face, her back view is really pretty.

If you think a woman looks good from behind, then only look at her back. Never look at her face, as you will easily be disappointed.

Yu Taohua had done a lot of things like this, so at that moment she didn't care at all what the girl's face looked like under her hat.

Yuan Ruxi and Mr. Shuiyun also saw the girl, but they felt that her back seemed familiar, as if they had seen her somewhere.

Somewhat like the Queen.

……

Ps: I will find time to make up for the update. I went out to do some things at noon today and got a little heatstroke. It’s not a big problem, but I was thinking of lying down for a while.
