The vanguard of the Qi army reported to the Marquis of Jin that Hangu Pass was in front of them. After passing Hangu Pass, they would enter the territory of Great Zhou.
Jin Hou ordered. He had to speed up and not delay.
Among the many vassal states, Jin was the closest to Great Zhou. The Jin army, after rushing all the way, was the first to arrive at Haojing and was treated warmly by King You.
After the Marquis of Jin learned the whole story, he frowned and thought," So it turns out that the promised rescue is to meet the vassals. The King of Qin thought that it was like this. He ran all the way here and his legs were crippled. His legs were thin."
A few days later, in the meeting hall of the Great Zhou Imperial Court, King You of Zhou, Guo Shifu, Cai Gongyi, Yin Qiu, and Marquis Jin sat in their respective positions.
Since Jin Hou was here, he had to gain something. Jin Hou wanted to use this opportunity to marry into the Great Zhou Empire. His future glory and wealth would be just around the corner.
When the marquis of Jin arrived at Haojing, Guo Shifu advised King Youyou,
"Jin is the closest to Zhou. From a strategic point of view, the king wants to rope in Jin Hou and make Jin act as Zhou's safety barrier.
To the marquis of Jin, they could give him land, money, titles, or a marriage alliance between the two countries. All of these could firmly tie Jin to the chariot of Great Zhou.
It can guarantee that the king will be safe for thousands of generations."
The King of You nodded and said,"Duke Guo, I'll leave this matter to you. You have full authority to handle it and take advantage of it. Just report to me after the matter is over."
Wherever the ruler and his subjects sat, they each had their own thoughts. First, the King of You said,"My dear minister, I have been running around all the way here and have stayed here for a while." Are the soldiers that I have brought with me properly arranged? If there's anything inappropriate, just tell me and the three country dukes."
Jin Hou quickly knelt down and bowed to the King of Hades.
"Your Majesty is the ruler of a country, and I am your loyal subordinate. It is only right for me to come here. If the king has any orders, I will die for them.
Hearing this, King You was also quite moved and said to Marquis Jin,
I have seen your actions, and I am very satisfied.
Jin Hou quickly said,
" Your Majesty, I came here to help the king and save the emperor. I didn't bring any gifts and wanted to give them to Your Majesty. Please forgive me."“”
The King of You nodded and said,"I am rich in the world and do not need your gifts. I only need your loyalty. You are the first duke to enter Haojing. No matter what, I can see your loyalty."
Third, I am very happy today. If you want anything, just say it again today and I will agree.
Jin Hou thought to himself, it would be best if he could raise the title, but the title was a matter of national importance. Without extraordinary achievements, the emperor would not easily promise it. It was better to give it something practical.
Jin Hou quickly bowed again,
Your Majesty, I have three daughters. They are smart, knowledgeable, and understand the etiquette of Zhou. I want to marry your daughter. I wonder if your Majesty will allow it?
The king said,"If you like my child, just tell me. There's no need to be polite."
The Marquis of Jin thought that the most promising sons of King You were the Queen and Princess Consort. One was Yijiu, and the other was Bofu. Why don't I marry a daughter to each of these two children? It'll be foolproof.
Jin Hou said carefully. Your Majesty, I heard that the Crown Prince of the Queen is intelligent, knowledgeable, powerful, and has the support of his subordinates.。。，
Jin Hou raised his head slightly to look at King You's expression and saw that King You's eyes were deliberately mocking him.
The Marquis of Jin thought,"Did I say something wrong?" Look at His Majesty's expression? This? Hmm? Duke Guo gave me a look, and his lips moved as if he was saying that Uncle Ji was convinced."
Marquis Jin hurriedly said,"I also heard that the princess 'son, Bofu, is smart and young. His temperament is the most like His Majesty. I want my two daughters to marry Prince Yijiu and Prince Bofu."
The King of You laughed and nodded when he heard Jin Hou praise Bao Si's son for being the most similar to him.
King You thought to himself, This Marquis Jin is really a sly old fox. He actually wants to marry my two sons. However, King You felt that the Marquis of Jin was loyal and brave, and he also wanted to make this happen, so he nodded and said,"Since you have such a wish, I will agree. Do you have any other requests?" Say it all at once, and I'll grant you one by one.
Jin Hou thought to himself, let's just forget about it, greedy for more and lose more, wouldn't it be better to marry first? This was also an important political resource.
The Underworld King paused and said,
"Jin Hou will be staying in my Hao Jing for a while. As for the marriage, it's a matter of love. Jin Hou will pay a visit to my queen and my beloved concubine when you have time.
I still have some things to deal with, so I'll leave the rest to my three dukes to receive you."
The Underworld King left in a hurry.
King You cupped his hands and watched King You leave.
The Duke of Jin whispered to Guo Shifu. Did the Duke think that the Emperor had something urgent to attend to and left in such a hurry?
Guo Shifu said softly,"It's not a big deal. It's just some family matters, but these matters have indeed kept our king busy for a while."
A few days before Jin Hou came to Haojing, King You had indeed encountered a troublesome matter.
In these two days, the King of Hades was like a mouse in a bellow, suffering from both sides.
A few days ago, the Queen and Bao Si had gone to King You's bedchamber.
The two of them had just arrived in front of the King's sleeping chambers when they saw the King's personal handmaidens come forward to greet him. The King was resting. Could the Queen and Princess Consort sit in the front hall?
The queen glared at her and slapped the maid's face. She berated,"How dare you! This queen is going to see her own husband, yet you still look down on me? Scram!"
The servant girl didn't dare to say anything after being beaten up and quickly knelt to the side.
The Queen continued with large strides and entered King You's bedchamber.
At this moment, the Underworld King was lying on his large bed with a beautiful woman in his arms. After the two of them had just done it, the woman leaned into the Underworld King's embrace and said,
"Your Majesty, when did you let our child enter the imperial clan? ChenQie is worried about our son's future.
King You hugged the woman's waist and said lovingly,"I am the ruler of a country. Leave such a small matter to me. Don't worry."
This woman, who was not pretty, leaned against the King again and said,"I'm just worried about the Queen."
The King of You laughed when he heard that."That yellow-faced woman. I've long been annoyed by her. There's no need to mention this matter again. Leave it to me. After all, your son is also my son."
After a period of time, I will properly handle the matter for my beloved concubine.”
The two of them were lovey-dovey under the covers when suddenly, the King You noticed that the concubine in his arms had suddenly burrowed into the covers, as if she had stopped.
The maids serving him by the side of the bed all knelt down and faced the door.
King You felt his right eyelid twitch and turned to look at the door. He saw that the door to his bedroom had opened at some point in time. Standing in front of the door was his queen, looking at him in shock. Behind her was his beloved concubine, Bao Si. Bao Si covered her mouth with her sleeve, looking puzzled.
If he had known earlier, King You would have hugged her and coaxed her last night, saying that Bao Si was the woman he loved the most in his heart. This man's mouth? alas
Why did she hug another one today?
Then, the Queen casually picked up the teacup beside the table and threw it on the ground. She scolded," Your Majesty, Wudi actually violated the laws of our ancestors. Zhou Li said that we can't sleep together during the day. Has Your Majesty forgotten?"
This was what the Underworld King was feeling. He hadn't looked at the almanac today and was being blocked in bed by his first and second wives.
This was a difficult situation, but King You was the ruler of a country after all. His aura was present, and King You did not explain anything. He ordered the maid by the bed to come and change.
The maidservant at the side hurriedly went forward to help the King put on his clothes and pulled up his pants. King You said to the Queen and Baosi,"Both of my beloved concubines are here. I have to deal with government affairs, so I won't accompany you. King You swaggered to the door of the bedroom and headed to the main hall."
What was the Nether King feeling? This was the first time she was pinned to the bed.
When the King You walked to the door of his bedroom, he saw his personal attendant kneeling there. He went up and kicked the attendant to the side with a loud bang. He scolded,"A bunch of useless people. They can't even stop two madams. I'll go to the chief justice and punish myself with 20 strokes."
The personal attendant thought to himself,'Your Majesty, do we dare to stop you?' Blocking the Queen would result in her death!
King You had left, but this woman had suffered a lot. This woman was really unlucky. She had been blocked by the Queen and the Second Mistress of the royal family! He was conflicted. The woman's eyes were filled with fear. At this moment, she did not know whether to wear her clothes or not. She knelt on the bed.
The maid hesitated and wanted to help her get dressed. However, she saw the king step forward and slap her body to the ground. He scolded her,"Why are you still wearing clothes for doing such an indecent thing?" You slut, get off the bed and kneel there.
The weather was already cold. The woman quickly rolled under the bed and prostrated herself at the queen's feet, kowtowing like a chick pecking at rice.
The queen sat on a chair at the side, coldly watching the woman kowtow and confess her guilt, ignoring her.
Although Bao Si was angry, her concubine felt pity for the woman. She wanted to go up and help her, but after glancing at the Queen, she lost her courage and obediently hid beside the Queen, silently watching as the woman kowtowed.
At this moment, a young man ran to the beautiful woman's side. He was stunned for a moment and quickly knelt at the Queen's feet. He kowtowed vigorously and shouted at the same time,"Queen, calm down. Queen, calm down. I kowtow to the Queen and admit my guilt." As he spoke, he kowtowed. Every time he kowtowed, his head would hit the floor with a loud thud.
The Queen's anger had not subsided, and she watched the mother and daughter kowtow and confess.
For about an hour, the mother and son had been kowtowing on their faces, causing them to be covered in blood. Then, they fainted on the ground one after another.
The queen shouted sternly. Someone fetch some water and splash these two b * tches awake with water.
The queen's maid quickly brought water and splashed it on their faces. The two of them snorted and woke up one after another. The queen said angrily,"What is this?" Tell me the truth. If you dare to lie to me, I'll beat you to death.
The mother and son slowly woke up and took a deep breath. The woman held back her grievances and her body. She reluctantly knelt down and did not dare to raise her head. She sobbed and said in a low voice,"Your Majesty, I am the daughter of Uncle Qin. That day, King You rode a horse in the land of Qin and saw me herding the horse. He felt that I had caught his eye. It was in that world that His Majesty had taken pleasure in me."
Seeing that this little girl was sensible, he brought this little girl into the palace and raised her secretly. The Emperor was worried that the Queen would find out, so he kept this little girl by his side as a maid.
Because there were many matters in the queen's six palaces, this princess also had many private matters. The Emperor often visited this little girl. Unexpectedly, this little girl became pregnant and gave birth to this child.
I dare not offend the Queen, but my status is low and I dare not offend you. We didn't dare to offend His Majesty, which is why we did such a disobedient act. Please, Your Majesty, please forgive us on account of this little girl's pity. We have to serve His Majesty no matter what."
The Queen picked up another teacup and threw it on the ground. She only hated the You King in her heart. She thought to herself, This You King, it's fine if he has Baosi, but this beloved Baosi is like a lacquer ladder. He doesn't even come to visit me in my bedroom, and now he has found another little fox.
He originally wanted to carry the mother and son to death, but seeing that the mother and son did not seem to be cunning people, he was moved.
The Queen gave Bao Si a look, and Bao Si understood. She quickly called the maids to put on clothes for the mother and son and let them drink some water. They would wait for a while to recover before waiting for the Queen to decide.
The woman and the boy kowtowed three more times and hid at the side, not daring to speak.
After all, Bao Si was also a concubine, so she sympathized with the mother and son, so she took extra care of them.
The Queen had wanted to beat the two to death, but looking at Bao Si's handsome face, she thought to herself," This concubine, Bao Si, has completely charmed the Emperor. With this little girl here, I have to think of a way to deal a blow to each other." The waiter and mistress were at each other's throats.
I can use this little girl to stay by Bao Si's side as a spy. I know what's going on. Thinking of this, the Queen made up a random excuse to let Bao Si leave.
The queen said coldly. You two, mother and son, slowly tell me.
This beautiful little girl replied,"Reporting to the Queen, this little girl's original name is Ying, Ying Jing. This child's name was given by His Majesty, Ji Yingqin."
The queen said coldly. It seemed that it wasn't easy for you. I wanted to give you a chance to forgive you. The queen continued,"Did you see that woman just now?" Her name is Bao Si, and you will follow her as her maid. If anything happens to Bao Si, you must tell me immediately. If you do well and make this queen happy, this queen will think of a way to let this child enter the imperial clan.
If you have second thoughts, I can drag you out at any time and beat you to death.
The woman called Ying Jing hurriedly kowtowed again. She brought the child and bowed to the queen, saying,"Don't worry, queen. I will follow the queen closely and do my best."
After the Queen left, Bao Si returned. As concubines, Bao Si smiled at the mother and son." We are both concubines and cannot be compared to a doctor like the Queen. From now on, you will follow me. I will eat and I will not mistreat you."
Because the Queen had already given instructions to the mother and son, Ying Jing quickly whispered," Thank you for your love, Princess Consort. I will follow you."
It was quiet here. King You received the news from his servant and returned as if nothing had happened. He hugged his beloved concubine, Bao Si. Bao Si said with tears in her eyes,"Yesterday, the king said that he only loved his concubine. Today, he hugged this woman and had a child. It seems that His Majesty does not only have his concubine in his heart."
King You said,"This little girl was really an accident. I didn't expect her to be pregnant. This little slut is pestering me. I can't act out on account of her father, Uncle Qin."
Hearing this, Bao Si ignored him and continued to cry.
Seeing that he couldn't be coaxed, King You turned around and went to the Queen's bedroom. Before King You entered, he saw the Queen smashing cups and slamming the table. She called him shameless, polite, and strict. Seeing that he couldn't gain any advantage, the King of Hades could only retreat.
By right, the Queen had a noble background and was also from a wealthy family. However, because her father, Marquis Shen, had spoiled the Queen since she was young, she had developed the habit of being a shrew. After marrying the King, her temperament did not change at all. The King was a rebellious person. He only liked to go along with her, not this kind of strong woman. Because of their temperaments, the two of them often quarreled with each other and did not give in to each other. Many years later, when the King of Hell met Bao Si, he immediately liked Bao Si's gentle temperament.
How do you Taishi know so much? As if he was there?
Ji Yanyan couldn't help but interject," This, these things, how do you secret historians know? Is there a camera in the room?" Do you have a phone that you can see at any time?
Grand Preceptor Shi Jin said carefully,"Our ancestors and clansmen are in the bedroom and witnessing all of this."
Ji Yan was stunned for a moment before asking,"Could it be that the emperor and his beloved concubine are performing the Duke of Zhou ceremony together, and you guys are also watching from the side?"
Grand Scribe Shi Jin said," Yes, we Grand Scribes, regardless of gender, are responsible for recording historical events. We are either historians or female officials. We have to record the daily life of the royal family."
Hearing this, Ji Yan felt goosebumps all over his body. He thought about how there would be another pair of eyes watching him in the future.
This was Grand Scribe Shi Jin saluting. Young Master just said what a camera and a mobile phone were. Although I am not talented, I am well-read. Why have I never heard of these two objects?
Ji Yan only understood when he heard this. This was the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, and they didn't know about these two items. Ji Yan laughed and said," I heard that only immortal cultivators have them. How could ordinary people like us have them?"
Hearing Ji Yan's words, Shi Jin found it inconvenient to ask further.
