The mad concubine of ancient martial arts who traveled through time

Chapter 21 The Road to Trade
what?
Close the northern Myanmar trade route?

Donghuang was dumbfounded by Yan Qianao's words.

You must know that the trade road in northern Myanmar has always been the main road for Dongling country and foreign regions to do business and communicate with each other. What is terrible is that this main road must pass through Mingbei country. Therefore, every year Dongling country meets Mingbei Guodu politely sent some valuable gifts, the purpose is to make Ming Beiguo convenient, which can be regarded as an excuse!
Now that Yan Qianao has closed the northern Burma trade route with a single sentence, the loss for Dongling Kingdom is not a small sum of money!
Empress Rong Zhen's face also turned green.

She also felt that she was out of luck today, what was wrong with what she said, and what was wrong with what she did. In the end, everything finally calmed down, and her jade bracelet angered Prince Ao again, and made them the only way to do business with foreign lands. The road is blocked again!

This... how can I make sense of this!
Your majesty, the concubine really... really didn't expect it!
She looked at Donghuang pitifully.

Donghuang glared at her fiercely, and growled in a low voice, "Go back and face the wall and think about it, I don't want to see you within three months!"

what?
three months?
emperor……

Empress Rong Zhen wants to cry but has no tears.

But Donghuang ignored her, stood up from the dragon chair all at once, flung his sleeves and left.

Those envoys from various countries present here, look at me, I look at you, the guests are gone, but the guests are still here, what's the point?
So, all at once, everyone patted their asses and left.

"His Royal Highness, Prince Xuan seems to have really taken a fancy to Miss Ruan Qi, and wants to fight you to the death?"

Xiao Guizi looked at his prince's calm and silent face, and said cautiously.

"Stinky girl dares to give things to other men!"

Yan Qianao's complexion gradually changed, first it was dark, then it was cold, and finally it was dark and gloomy.

"What did you say? He wants to fight the prince to death?"

"His Royal Highness, slave... slave..."

Faintly, Xiao Guizi felt the murderous intent, and was so shocked that he couldn't utter a complete sentence.

"A dog can't spit out ivory, slap it!"

Yan Qianao said coldly, then turned around and strode out.

It's so pitiful, the poor little noble son has suffered, beating this side, beating that side, beating him so that his eyes are full of gold stars... from now on, don't talk too much, from now on, don't talk, from now on, you can be a dumb eunuch and don't get beaten!

Behind him, there was a crackling sound of slaps in the face, and the mournful singing of the little noble son.

Luoying Bieyuan.

"Miss, Prince Xuan is holding a brocade box outside, saying that he is here to give you a gift!"

Danqing came in from the outside and said to Ruan Zhuqi.

"Who cares about any gift from him, let him go back!"

Ruan Zhuqi is catching ants in the yard. Those little ants look a little bigger than ordinary ants, and they are all red. When she was in modern times, her mother gave her an ancient book, which recorded that , This kind of ant is called Hongqiaochu, although it may be small in size, but a group of ants can kill an elephant in minutes!
They rely on their sharp teeth to bite, and what is fatal is that their saliva is poisonous. If they are bitten by it, if they cannot take the antidote immediately, they will definitely die!
She took out a small bottle and put all the ants she caught into it.

"Miss, Prince Xuan is not leaving. He said that if you don't accept his gift, he will stay outside the gate of the other courtyard!"

Danqing is back.

"Really? He said he would stay there forever?"

Ruan Zhuqi stood up, holding the small bottle in her hand, her eyes flashed brightly, "Danqing, bring me a basin of water, by the way, use my footwashing water from last night..."

"Miss, you poured out the water for washing your feet last night!"

Dan Qing said a bit embarrassed.

"You're so stupid, can't you wash your feet now?"

Uh?
this……

Danqing vaguely guessed what his young lady wanted to do, but the question is, is it really good to do that?
"Hurry up and wash it! Otherwise, I'll give you to Prince Xuan..."

"Ah? Don't do it, miss, the servant will go to wash right away!"

Danqing was terrified, and hurried into the back room.

Not long after, she came out with a blushing face, holding a copper basin in her hand, and the water in the copper basin was a bit muddy.

"Miss……"

"Go, go out with me!"

Ruan Zhuqi said, and walked out.

Outside the door, Xuan Shidu was walking around anxiously. The dignified prince gave a gift to a little woman without hesitation, but was rejected. If this kind of thing spread, his reputation as the second son in the world would be lost up!

But since he has already boasted in front of Yan Qianao, saying that he will give Ruan Zhuqi a gift, then he must try his best to deliver it, otherwise wouldn't he be ridiculed by him?

He was getting impatient, and the door of the other courtyard opened with a creak, followed by a beautiful woman with an indifferent face, who came out.

"Xiaoqi, you're here. The prince has been waiting for a long time. I'm thirsty. Just go in and have a cup of tea!"

Xuan Shidu thought that Ruan Zhuqi came out to invite him in, and wanted to go in as soon as he spoke.

"His Royal Highness is thirsty? That's terrible!"

As Ruan Zhuqi said, there was a flash of coldness in his expression, and then he said in a cold voice, "Xiaoqi is here to deliver water to His Highness the Crown Prince, are you ready to drink water, Your Highness?"

Uh?
What else do you need to prepare for drinking water?
Xuan Shidu looked up in surprise, but before he understood it, he just felt that a burst of cold water poured down on him from top to bottom to cool him down!
"Xiao...Xiaoqi, you..."

He stretched out his hand to wipe his face in embarrassment, and inadvertently the water got into his mouth, eh?Why does it taste a bit weird, it seems a bit salty, so I couldn't help asking, "Xiao Qi, what is this water..."

"Oh, I forgot to tell His Highness the Crown Prince. This water is the holy water of the sky. It waters the flowers and flowers, and fertilizes the land. As for watering people? Humans stink!"

After she finished speaking, she turned around and entered the yard, "Danqing, close the door!"

"Xiao Qi, Xiao Qi, wait a minute, I'll give you a gift!"

Outside the door, Prince Xuan didn't care about why the water made everyone smell bad, so he slammed on the door and shouted.

"His Royal Highness, please leave here immediately, otherwise the next time you will be showered with water for washing your feet!"

What?
Was that footwash just now?
Xuan Shidu's face turned pale in an instant, and he yelled angrily, "Come on, my prince wants to take a bath, take a bath..."

This voice was shouting so exasperatedly that it could be heard several miles away.

"Miss, he is the prince, is this really okay?"

In the yard, Danqing felt very uneasy when he heard Prince Xuan's out-of-tone shout.

"What's wrong? This tells people not to offend me, I won't offend others, if anyone offends me, I will offend! Those Yingying and Yanyan around him know that he gave me gifts, so why don't they hate me again?? Humph , He is clearly here to bring hatred to me, there is no good thing, it is all bad!"

Speaking of Xuan Shidu, Ruan Zhuqi thought of Yan Qianao.

That evildoer is not a good bird, he thinks of ways to take advantage of her, and when it's over, he doesn't even say anything, wishing that the whole world would know that he took advantage of her!

He just wanted to make his reputation so bad that he couldn't get married!
"Xiaoqi, you're being naughty again, aren't you?"

Ruan Yiyuan had a gentle face, walked in, and said reproachfully.

"No way! Xiaoqi is the most obedient, never causing trouble, if you don't believe me, ask Danqing!"

Ruan Zhuqi stood at attention, pouting her mouth, her two little hands seemed to be intertwined awkwardly, and her tone of voice became coquettish.

Uh?
I feel so cold!
Ruan Yiyuan shuddered for a moment, and looked at his seventh sister in fear, "Xiao Qi, can you speak well?"

"Cut, why don't you be a lady, and you are afraid of the cold, why don't you play around and play, and you don't like her being obedient? Ruan Yiyuan, what do you want from me?"

Got it!
That's the smell, Xiaoqi, you should correct yourself and stick to the old path!
Ruan Yiyuan's expression returned to normal, "Xiaoqi, you should take your medicine today. Brother has prepared rock sugar water for you. After taking the medicine, drinking rock sugar water will not be bitter at all!"

As soon as he waved his hand, a servant girl came in behind him carrying soup and rock sugar water.

"Miss Seven, your medicine is ready!"

"Uh? What kind of medicine is this? Why does it smell so bitter?"

Ruan Zhuqi searched the memory of the Seventh Miss Ruan Family, and the memory showed that she had to take a particularly bitter medicine in the middle of every month. The medicine was even bitterer than Coptis chinensis. They are all mobilized in groups, first to lure them to surrender, and then to coax them if they fail to do so. The coaxing is also seen through, that is, to rush forward collectively, pressing their legs, pressing their hands, Ruan Hongyu, the wife of the Ruan family, directly opened Miss Seven's mouth , and then poured a bowl of medicine down to her... Seventh Miss will be in a state of "doing" for seven or eight days after being poured, why did you cut General Ruan's court clothes with scissors?What smashed Mrs. Ruan's jewelry collection?Why put all kinds of poisonous insects in the rooms of the six brothers!
After such a tossing, no one dared to stop her. Who asked them to forcefully drug her?
Even though the medicine was administered to keep her life out of danger for the time being!
"Xiaoqi, be good, the medicine tastes bitter, it's good for your body..."

Ruan Yiyuan's forehead was dripping with beads of sweat. When they were in the Ruan family, they had to fight together to give medicine to the little sister. Now he is alone, so what should he do?
"Brother, I suddenly have a headache, can I sleep for a while, and then take medicine?"

To his surprise, Ruan Zhuqi had no intention of resisting at all, instead she frowned pitifully and rubbed her head with one small hand, oh, it hurts..."Why do you have a headache? Did you hurt your head when you jumped off the cliff?"

Ruan Yiyuan shouted to Gui Jie outside, "Gui Jie, hurry up and get the imperial doctor and let him show Xiaoqi, is there anything wrong?"

"Oh, no, big brother, I just want to sleep for a while, you wait until I finish sleeping, if it's still not good, then you can ask the imperial physician again, okay?"

As she spoke, she pouted her mouth high, looking very unhappy.

"Okay, okay, just do as you say!"
