Chapter 35: Starting to cause trouble as soon as you arrive in Northern Qi?

Li Chengde was not the only one who went to Northern Qi.

Of course, the so-called Qing Kingdom delegation also accompanied them.

In fact, almost all of them were replaced by Tiger Guards.

This secret force secretly trained and controlled by Fan Jian usually serves as guards for members of the royal family.

This time, Li Chengde was going to travel far to Northern Qi and go deep into the heart of Shangjing, so the emperor naturally made full preparations.

But what was surprising was that no one from the Prince of Wei's palace sneaked into the delegation.

If we have to say, the only person from the Prince of Wei's Palace among those who followed the delegation to Northern Qi was Si Lili, the former courtesan of Liujing River.

No one expected that His Royal Highness the Prince of Wei would actually go to Northern Qi with his confidante!

The shock that the King of Wei brought to Kyoto this winter was so great that they even forgot his age.

It is normal for young men to be full of vigor and vitality and need the company of beautiful women!
On the day when His Royal Highness the Prince of Wei and the delegation left Kyoto, the City Patrol Office had already set up checkpoints, and the streets were empty, with only soldiers guarding various places.

The convoy drove out of Kyoto City calmly and headed north under the escort of the Imperial Guards and the Black Cavalry.

When they reached Wuduhe Town, it was no longer convenient for the Black Cavalry and the Imperial Guards to move forward, so the Imperial Guards and Embroidered Uniform Guards of Northern Qi were responsible for their escort.

Moreover, the young emperor of Northern Qi also sent several maids and maids to bring Si Lili back to the palace.

But Si Lili still stayed in the same carriage with Li Chengde and was unwilling to leave early.

These people had no choice but to follow the delegation.

But fortunately, the atmosphere was harmonious and no trouble occurred.

Although the Northern Wei court was destroyed more than 20 years ago, the Northern Qi only inherited most of the territory, but even this part of the territory was also very large.

It was so big that even though Qing had used years of war to gradually nibble away at and annex much of Northern Qi's territory, the other side was still a behemoth!
"Your Highness, it seems that there is still a huge territory waiting for us to conquer!"

Tiger Guard Commander Gundam used his true energy to allow his honest voice to be heard in the carriage.

Li Chengde smiled slightly and nodded, "Well, Daqing still has to rely on talents like Commander Gao."

Gundam, who was driving the carriage outside, chuckled and said, "I will follow Your Highness in the Northern Expedition, bring this territory under the jurisdiction of Qing State, and help Your Highness unify the world!"

Li Chengde's smile faded and he reminded him, "I am also helping His Majesty."

Gundam panicked and quickly admitted his mistake, "Your Highness, did I say something wrong?"

Li Chengde said calmly: "Be careful next time."

"Yes."

There was silence outside the carriage again.

However, there was a soft voice that did not reach the outside world, but suddenly sounded inside the carriage.

"Your Highness, do I need to go back to the palace after arriving in Shangjing City?" Si Lili placed her slender hands on Li Chengde's shoulders and kneaded them gently.

Her voluptuous curves were perfectly accentuated by her gorgeous clothes. Her black hair was lightly tied up with a jade hairpin inserted diagonally in it.
Her lips are red, her eyes are moving, her eyebrows are as dark as distant ink, and she is stunning in every direction.

She grew up in the Northern Qi imperial palace. After arriving in the capital, the young Northern Qi emperor would definitely ask her to return to the palace.
But of course she wanted to spend more time with Li Chengde, after all, she would be staying in Shangjing City from now on.

Li Chengde's eyes were gentle as he grasped her delicate hand and said, "Don't worry, I will probably stay in Shangjing City for about a year this time."

Si Lili's eyes were somewhat surprised. She didn't know about this. "Your Highness, you hid it from me so hard..."

Li Chengde raised his lips slightly, "Don't enter the palace for this year. Unless the little empress of Northern Qi comes to ask for you personally, I will not let you go easily."

These words touched Si Lili a little, but she also noticed a problem. His Highness seemed to know that the little emperor of Northern Qi was actually a woman!
Ever since she met His Royal Highness the Prince of Wei, she has been looking for an opportunity to tell this story.

But I didn't find the right opportunity.

However, she never expected that this matter was not a secret to His Highness! Si Lili's face suddenly changed, and she apologized on the spot, "I knew about it but did not report it, please punish me, Your Highness!"

Li Chengde moved his hand down and hugged Si Lili's slender waist, letting her sit in his arms. "How do you want me to punish you?"

Si Lili's face instantly turned red, and she whispered, "Your Highness, please have mercy on me..."

The sound insulation of the carriage is actually very good.

Unless one deliberately uses one's true Qi to make a loud noise, the outside world will have no idea what is happening inside.

The convoy crossed most of the territory of Northern Qi.
It was not until the roof of the car was covered by a dark cloud that the extremely magnificent and majestic Shangjing City suddenly appeared before our eyes.

It is much taller and more majestic than the capital city of Qing State, and the extremely high city walls give people a strong sense of oppression.

A feeling of solemnity and majesty suddenly emanated from this enormous city wall.

At this time, the city gate had already been cleared and there were no outsiders waiting. Only officials from the Northern Qi Dynasty were waiting there.

Although Li Chengde came from an enemy country, he was a prince after all, so he had all the etiquette that a prince should have.

And because of the "Seeking Truth Newspaper", there is no one in the capital of Northern Qi who does not know the Fourth Prince of Qing, and even many literati are his fans!

There were a large number of officials at the scene, who came to the city gate with a pilgrimage attitude to welcome the Fourth Prince of Qing Kingdom!

But what they didn't expect was that the Fourth Prince's carriage did not stop at all, but went straight into the city.

The Northern Qi officials were all stunned.

After a brief thought, someone put forward his own idea, "I understand! The Fourth Prince is hinting that we should not make such a big scene!"

"Although I have never met His Majesty the Fourth Prince, we have read those articles. They are articles that only saints can write!"

"Think about it, would a saint be bound by such vulgar formalities? Of course not!"

"Yes! We are so superficial! If I had known earlier, I would have asked His Majesty to cancel this extravagant ceremony!"

"What should we do now? The students of the Imperial Academy and His Majesty are waiting!"

"Since the Fourth Prince doesn't like this kind of thing, let's keep it simple!"

The officials of Northern Qi began to get busy.

The imperial ceremonial procession specially prepared for Li Chengde was cancelled, and a large number of officials followed the carriage closely.

Soon, they saw Li Chengde stop in front of a money house from a distance.

They were not unfamiliar with this money house.

This money house was opened when the fourth prince of Qing State just set out for Northern Qi, and it also came into the sight of the Northern Qi court.

Everyone in the Northern Qi court knew that the owner of the money shop came from the Wei Palace of Qing State, so the master behind the scenes was self-evident.

So they were not surprised that the Fourth Prince of Qing got off the car here.

But then, someone walked out of the money shop and put up a wooden sign at the door of the store.

The above content is very simple. From now on, as long as you deposit money in this bank, you can get large interest.

For example, if you deposit one tael of silver, you can take out two taels of silver five days later, which is doubled!
The officials of Northern Qi were so shocked by the profits that they simply couldn't believe their eyes!
How can this be? !
It is incredible that the income can be doubled in just five days!

The money house can pay such a horrific interest, which means it can earn more!
But, how is this possible?

At this moment, no matter how much they respected the Fourth Prince of Qing, they could not control their emotions.

"Is your Highness the Fourth Prince crazy?!"
