Fish swimming around the world

Qi and Han were stunned, looking at each other, and suddenly their eyes lit up - yes, they were really stupid. This is King Xiaoyao, and I am equivalent to becoming his subordinate. The martial arts resources are nothing! Is there any need to go around taking jobs like a killer to get those few resources?

The two people who figured it out were immediately overjoyed, clasping their fists and kneeling on one knee: "I am willing to listen to the prince's orders!"

"Get up." Jiang Fan looked at the two of them and said, "Do your best, I won't treat you badly, but..." He narrowed his eyes: "If you dare to betray me, you will know the consequences..."

The two of them didn't even dare to say anything.

"Boy Jiang, how are you doing next?" Mr. Tian said as he picked up the sickle.

Jiang Fan smiled faintly: "How? It depends on what the arbiter wants..."

——

The name of the capital of Daxia is simple, it is called - Xia Capital.

There is the famous Qilin Lane in the south of the Xia capital, where dignitaries gather. There is only one home at the end of the alley, which is a huge mansion covering hundreds of acres. The towering courtyard wall is almost as high as the city wall of an ordinary small town. On both sides of the vermilion gate, there are two unicorns more than one foot tall, also covered in vermilion, full of nobility and majesty. Qilin Lane got its name from this.

The dignity of this family can be seen from the fact that they dared to erect a unicorn in front of their door and named the most noble gathering place of nobles after it.

The four large gilt characters written on the gate also fully prove this point - Qilin Prime Minister's Mansion.

Yes, this place is the residence of Prime Minister Zhang Yi, the most powerful person in the Great Xia Dynasty, known as Qilin Prime Minister.

This Zhang Yi is the new top dignitary in Daxia.

Many people know that Zhang Yi is the only son of Zhang Zhiling, the Prime Minister of the Five Kingdoms, and he is the son of an old man. Zhang Zaifu has always valued him very much. Zhang Yi also lived up to expectations. At the age of fifteen, Gui Gu valued him and accepted him as his disciple. At the age of eighteen, he became one of the two first disciples of Yin and Yang in contemporary Guigu, alongside Li Xiu, the left prime minister of the Qin Dynasty.

He left the army at the age of twenty-five and traveled around the world. At the age of thirty, he climbed Mount Tai and became an official in the Imperial Court of Zhou Dynasty. However, due to disagreements with his father's political views, he abandoned his official position and left. After that, the five countries rushed to invite him, but he lived in seclusion in the countryside and remained unmoved.

It was not until he was now fifty-five that he accepted the invitation of Jiang Yan, the king of Daxia, and became the prime minister of Xia.

Xia King Jiang Yan respected him very much and immediately entrusted him with the important task of overseeing the military and political power of the Xia Dynasty. He also built this huge mansion to show his honor and favor.

It is said that in order to please him, the King of Xia located his study in the middle of the lake in the courtyard. It was built with white stone at the foot of Kunlun and decorated with thousands of bamboos of Taihua. It was called Bamboo and Stone House. The luxury seems to contain respect for the Prime Minister of the Five Kingdoms.

At this time, in the center of the lake, among the bamboos and rocks, the powerful Prime Minister of the Xia Dynasty was looking at a person intently.

To be precise, looking at a person's back.

The man was naked and his back was messy with blood.

Zhang Yi looked at it for a long time before slowly sitting upright. He picked up the tea cup and took a sip.

"What else could he say?"

The man turned around and knelt on the ground: "I have nothing to say to the prime minister."

Zhang Yi looked calm and just said lightly: "Then you are of no use..."

The man was startled and hurriedly prostrated himself on the ground: "Mr. Prime Minister, please spare my life! Mr. Prime Minister, please spare your life!"

However, Zhang Yi didn't even look at him again, and dragged him out forcefully regardless of his desperate struggle.

Zhang Yi closed her eyes and meditated for a long time, then opened her eyes and said slowly: "Ban Yue Ming Dy apologizes, I apologize in person... Haha, what a Xiaoyao King, young man, he has a very loud tone..."

An old man with a scarred face beside him said, "I have to take action myself."

Zhang Yi waved her hand slightly: "No need."

"Does the Prime Minister really want to see that yellow-mouthed boy?"

Zhang Yi said calmly: "We are the ones who did it. No matter how you say it, we are in the wrong. Now that they have made conditions, we can't give up the truth."

"The Prime Minister thinks too highly of that fisherman." Disdain flashed in the scar-faced old man's eyes.

Zhang Yi stood up slowly: "I... I was just a farmer back then."

The scar-faced old man frowned slightly: "I'm sorry to say this, but this person doesn't look like the Empress, and his title of Xiaoyao King is not in the ancient system. He's just Caotou Xianwang. I'll meet you at the end of the month. If you spread the word, you will lose your identity."

Zhang Yi smiled slightly: "With just one and a half months of sounding the dynasty, you can clear the clouds and see the sun. It's worthy of seeing you."

The scar-faced old man said solemnly: "Then I will accompany the Prime Minister on a trip."

Zhang Yi said: "I need to call someone else."

"who?"

"Mrs. Tian."

…

Qingliu Lake covers an area of ​​thousands of hectares, with rippling blue waves and light mist in the breeze and drizzle.

There is a small boat on the lake floating leisurely towards a painting boat in the center of the lake.

On the bow of the painted boat, a famous old man in brocade robes sat in meditation with his eyes closed. A woman with a voluptuous figure, purple clothes and purple hair stood beside him, holding an umbrella with her bare hands.

"Master Xiang is very leisurely." A clear voice came, and the old man slowly opened his eyes and stood up.

A small boat was slowly approaching in front of me, and an old boatman wearing a bamboo hat was rowing. There was a young man in white clothes fluttering, standing on the bow of the boat holding an oil-paper umbrella. A snow-white hairband hung on his shoulders with his long hair, and he had handsome features. , indescribably elegant and free.

The old man smiled slightly, nodded and said, "King Xiaoyao, you are really Xiaoyao."

"Prime Minister Qilin is very hardworking." Jiang Fan stood on the bow of the boat and looked at each other calmly.

The old man stared at the young king who was famous all over the world, and the young prince also stared at the Qilin Prime Minister. The two of them looked at each other without saying a word.

"You are younger than I thought." After a while, Zhang Yi spoke softly.

"Older than the boy imagined." Jiang Fan replied casually.

"I am not as good as the prince. I have many worldly affairs and work hard, so I will naturally grow older."

"The Prime Minister cares about everything, including national affairs, family affairs, and world affairs. Even this little thing about a boy, the Prime Minister pays a lot of attention to, so it is inevitable that he will have to worry about it."

Zhang Yi smiled slightly: "The prince has something in his words."

Jiang Fan shook his head: "That's because Mr. Xiang thinks too much."

Zhang Yi said: "Since the prince invites you, why not board the ship and talk about it?"

Seeing that Jiang Fan didn't make any move, he said: "There are only me and the owner of the boat in the boat, so there is no need for the prince to worry."

Jiang Fan said calmly: "The prime minister misunderstood, there are storms, and I just hope that the boat will stop more safely."

Zhang Yi's eyes showed deep meaning. After a moment, Jiang Fan stepped onto the boat.

Zhang Yi cupped his hands and said: "Da Qin is the king of the country, I am polite."

Jiang Fan also clasped his fists slightly: "I have met the Qilin Prime Minister of the Xia Kingdom. This is a formal meeting. I wonder if Prime Minister can prepare some wine?"

"Haha..." Zhang Yi stroked his beard and chuckled: "I have heard for a long time that the prince became an immortal in wine, how could I not be prepared?"

"If Qingliu makes wine like this, I'll just ask for two cups."

"Your Majesty, please." Zhang Yi reached out sideways, gesturing for Jiang Fan to come in.

A small table, four dried fruit snacks, a silver pot, and two silver cups. The young and old sit opposite each other, and the woman in purple burns incense and pours wine.

Zhang Yi looked at the old man sitting cross-legged on the bow of the boat: "Your Majesty is young. He only takes an old servant with him when he goes out. This is not what a young and romantic man would do."

Jiang Fan watched the wine glass being filled, and smiled: "I am as blessed as Mr. Bu. The spring rain is like wine, and the bare hands add fragrance, which makes me envious."

Zhang Yi laughed loudly: "I have heard for a long time that Wang Xiaoyao's poems are immortal and ci sage, and the young man is romantic. I specially chose this painting boat. I wonder if the prince is satisfied?"

Jiang Fan glanced at the enchanting woman wearing a tight-fitting purple dress with exposed arms and thighs, and smiled softly: "The beauty is stunning."

Zhang Yi said: "Does the prince like it?"

Jiang Fan said: "The age is inappropriate."

Zhang Yi shook her head and laughed: "It was my mistake. The older the wine, the better."

Jiang Fan gently picked up the wine glass and took a deep sip: "Linjiang Pavilion Shao Knife, this is not an old wine, but it suits my taste, I am satisfied."

Zhang Yi also raised the wine glass: "Your Majesty is in front of you with fine wine and precious jade. How dare I entertain you with dirty wine?"

Jiang Fan was slightly lost in thought: "If we are in love, even if it's Zhuojiu, it won't hurt... Speaking of which, I also met a famous senior, Zhuojiu..."

Zhang Yi was leisurely fascinated: "That day when my father came to the Jiang Pavilion, he had to catch a fisherman and Linjiang Immortal, which comforted him all his life. It's just ridiculous that there are many famous people in the world, but only that young fisherman can be called my father's close friend."

Jiang Fan said: "The Prime Minister of the Five Kingdoms has worked hard all his life just to unite the world, avoid disasters and wars, and make the people happy and enjoy peace in the world. He is worthy of respect."
