Chapter 26 I feel pity for Mrs. Hu, the charming and seductive Miss Hu
"That's better. You promised to spend more time with me and go to the theater with me."
In response to Honglian's request, Gongsun Ce did not refuse and went to the stage to watch the play with Honglian.
The actors and actresses on the stage were performing a comedy show, and in the box, Honglian, who was sitting next to Gongsun Ce, was laughing so hard that she was bent over.
Recitation, comic performance, and singing and dancing are the three main elements of an actor's performance.
It was a bit boring for Gongsun Ce, but it was also one of the few entertainments in this era.
However, these actors and actresses were basically kept in the palaces by kings of various countries.
No matter how powerful Ji Wuye was, he never kept actors and actresses in the general's mansion.
Honglian smiled happily, but the people in the other two boxes were not happy.
The box to the left of Honglian's box belongs to Han Yu, the fourth son of Han Wangan. He is ambitious and capable, but his teammates are not strong enough.
The issue of the Baiyue refugees continued to ferment, and Gongsun Ce's evasion of the words of the car rental company boss became the beginning of everything.
Gongsun Ce told the owner of the car rental company that the cattle were stolen by Baiyue refugees, so the owner of the car rental company became the source of the rumor.
"You know what? A lot of Baiyue refugees came from outside the city, and they stole my cattle!"
"What! Hundreds of Baiyue refugees came from outside the city and robbed the girl from Lao Niu, the owner of the car rental company!"
"What! Thousands of Baiyue refugees came outside the city, threatening to invade Xinzheng and steal our girls!"
"What! There are tens of thousands of Baiyue refugees in the city. They want to attack the palace and steal the king's girl!"
Rumors stop with the wise and spread in the market. Gongsun Ce couldn't even imagine what the rumors would become when they reached Han Wangan.
Gongsun Ce thought that it might be that the Baiyue refugees wanted to kidnap King Han An as a concubine.
Therefore, Han Wangan became somewhat restless. During the morning court session, Han Wangan showed his strong character for once.
"General, don't you know about these rumors? Go and kill those untouchables!"
Han Fei suddenly felt that there seemed to be a slight possibility of saving South Korea.
Ji Wuye hesitated. He was also in trouble, and it was a big one. "Your Majesty, those students are still blocking my door. I always go through the back door when I come to court."
Only then did Han Wangan remember that the students were still making trouble at the gate of Ji Wuye's general's mansion.
So Han Wangan looked at Zhang Kaidi, "Prime Minister."
Zhang Kaidi shuddered. The Baiyue refugees were a hot potato, and he didn't want to take them on, so he quickly passed the buck, "The Baiyue refugees should be under the jurisdiction of the city defense army."
The city defense army opened their mouths and threw the pot back to Ji Wuye.
Han Wangan looked around and finally locked onto Han Yu and Han Fei. Han Fei was the Sikou and didn't care about these things, but Han Yu could represent Han Wangan.
"Old Four, I'll leave the matter of the Baiyue refugees to you."
Han Yu's palms suddenly began to sweat, but since Han Wangan had called him, he decided to accept the offer. He was determined to get this benefit.
Han Yu stepped forward and saluted, "I am willing to share your concerns, but this is after all under the jurisdiction of the city defense army, and I am powerless."
Although Han Wangan was dim-witted, he knew how to balance things out and immediately made the decision, "My dear Ji, the city defense army will be under the command of the fourth brother.
As for Lord Ji, I have decided to hand over part of the command of the Imperial Guard to you."
Han Fei wanted to say something but stopped himself, as the matter was done and there was no way to persuade him.
Han Yu took on this burden, but it didn't mean that Han Yu really had a solution.
Therefore, even though Han Yu was watching a comedy show, it was still boring and he couldn't laugh.
As for the box on Honglian's right, Miss Hu and Madam Hu were reminiscing about the past.
Lady Hu hugged Mrs. Hu, who was still crying, her eyes full of heartache. The disaster of wiping out the entire family was too much for the two sisters to endure.
The show soon ended, but Honglian's smile remained unchanged. "That actor just now..."
Honglian shared her funny moments with Gongsun Ce, and her desire to share was overwhelming. Gongsun Ce just listened quietly. After all, he couldn't get a word in.
Han Yu left in a hurry, while Lady Hu and Mrs. Hu watched the entire performance. Therefore, when Honglian left with Gongsun Ce, she happened to meet Mrs. Hu and her sister.
The moment Lady Hu saw Gongsun Ce, her eyes lit up. Gongsun Ce was much more pleasing to the eyes than King Han An.
Gongsun Ce's gaze stayed on Lady Hu for a little longer, which caused Honglian great dissatisfaction.
"Do you men all like this kind of fox, um..."
Facing the jealous Honglian, Gongsun Ce could only respond with actions.
Gongsun Ce lowered his head and sealed Honglian's red lips, suppressing all of Honglian's dissatisfaction.
Night falls quietly and silently.
Gongsun Ce did not leave the King of Han's palace, but came to the cold palace of Zheng State.
The Zheng State Cold Palace, which was once desolate, is particularly lively today.
A five-man team of Bai Yifei's White Armor Army was searching the cold palace.
Judging from their familiarity with the terrain of the cold palace, they must have been searching for several days.
"Brother Wei Zhuang, what do you think?"
Not far from Gongsun Ce was Wei Zhuang, who was born in the cold palace of Zheng State. Since Guigu returned to Han State, he would occasionally come to the cold palace in the middle of the night.
"During his reign, the overlord Duke Zhuang of Zheng made the State of Zheng powerful for a time, and its power eclipsed that of the Emperor of Zhou.
The Zhou emperor united four kingdoms and tried to weaken the power of Zheng, but was defeated by Duke Zhuang of Zheng.
People all over the world were curious about the source of power that enabled Duke Zhuang of Zheng to rise to become the overlord.
There is a legend that there are seven stars, seven countries, seven secrets, and the core of the Blue Dragon.
Legend has it that whoever masters the secret of the Blue Dragon's Seven Stars will have the power to rule the world."
Wei Zhuang's words became more difficult to speak. Although he did not explain it, Wei Zhuang was certain in his heart that the rise of Duke Zhuang of Zheng was related to the Seven Stars of the Blue Dragon.
Moreover, Wei Zhuang felt that this group of people were looking for clues about the Seven Stars of the Blue Dragon in the cold palace.
However, Wei Zhuang was born in the cold palace of Zheng State, and no one knew every tree and blade of grass here better than Wei Zhuang.
Gongsun Ce asked Wei Zhuang a question, "Can you swim?"
Wei Zhuang's face changed. Apparently he realized that there was indeed a place in the cold palace that he was not familiar with - under the water.
Gongsun Ce believed that the Seven Stars of the Blue Dragon did exist and were extremely powerful.
With Chi You's military demon gods as a foundation, it is estimated that the power of the Seven Stars of the Blue Dragon can at least be comparable to the sum of all the military demon gods.
Chi You has eighty-one Gundam-like military demons.
Gongsun Ce stroked his chin and looked at the busy White Armor Army team in front of him. "Brother Wei Zhuang, how long do you think it will take for these five idiots to realize this problem?"
"Fools only look at the present and fail to see the future."
After a moment of shock, Wei Zhuang easily regained his usual aura of forcing the king.
Gongsun Ce knew that Wei Zhuang was trying to make excuses for himself. After all, he didn't expect that there was still something underwater that he hadn't found.
Gongsun Ce did not continue to watch what was happening in front of him. He tapped his toes lightly and used his lightness skills to enter the King of Han's harem.
After a long period of self-cultivation, King Han An mustered up the courage to enter the harem because of a word from Madam Mingzhu.
"My sister Hu Meiren and I will serve the king together today."
Even though King Han was unable to do so, he could not let this beautiful scenery go to waste.
What's more, the two concubines who usually don't get along with each other work together to serve him.
