Chapter 47

“The city lord is back!” The person in charge of guarding the post was Jiang Chaosheng, who habitually called this King An the city lord.

Hearing this voice, the others who followed Jiang Chao looked over, and sure enough, the door that had been closed for several days opened, and they saw a familiar figure at a glance. They waited on the shore for a few days, and the more they waited, the more anxious they became. They were planning to go into the water to find someone, when they saw Jiang Chaosheng came out with Ji Xuanbing in his arms.

These people breathed a sigh of relief and greeted them with happy faces: “My lord, you are back. If you don’t come back, I will go to sea to find you.”

Jiang Chaosheng frowned: “I didn’t send someone to inform me, but I will come back in two days.” He and Ji Xuanbing were going to stay at the bottom of the sea, and they had specially arranged for people from the sea clan to deliver the letter. These sea monsters can maintain their human form for a short period of time. The inside will not be exposed so easily.

“It’s not that you didn’t say it beforehand, and we can’t help worrying if you suddenly change your plan and don’t see anyone.” Jiang Chaosheng temporarily changed his attention. This princess’ “mother’s house” is strange and doesn’t allow outsiders to enter at all. They are strangers here. Staying on the deserted island, it was inevitable that he would murmur in his heart, worried that the princess’ family would directly detain the prince and act as a husband.

Jiang Chaosheng is not only an ordinary official, but also a prince. If something happens, they have no good fruit to eat. If you are someone’s door-to-door husband, you will lose face to the royal family, and it may cause a lot of trouble.

“Okay, it’s been delayed for a few days, let’s go back now.” Jiang Chaosheng didn’t care too much about this issue, he boarded the boat with Ji Xuanbing’s hand, and a group of people followed behind the team with heavy boxes.

“What are these boxes?” The deputy who came over murmured, Jiang Chaosheng accompanied Ji Xuanbing back with a lot of gifts. If all the gifts were returned, wouldn’t it mean that their prince was disliked.

“It’s the high priest…”

Just as Ji Xuanbing was about to speak, he was interrupted by Jiang Chaosheng: “It’s the princess’s elders who are distressed. They gave him the things that he used to use on weekdays, and put them away carefully for this king.”

Jiang Chaosheng squeezed Ji Xuanbing’s hand gently, and whispered into the other’s ear: “Don’t mention the high priest outside.”

He was afraid that the little merman would accidentally leak his mouth and reveal the whole situation of the deep-sea merman family. Originally, there was not a piece of iron bucket around him, even if everyone is sincere now, but the people’s hearts have changed, and if they are not balanced, they will have other thoughts.

“It’s alright, you see that the black flood dragons have run away in a daze.” Ji Xuanbing didn’t care.

But under Jiang Chaosheng’s gaze, his expression became serious: “Husband is right, I will listen to you.”

In fact, Jiang Chaosheng didn’t like to talk about big truths, and to say something reprimanded. The two of them are husband and wife, equal partners, not teachers and students. Seeing the little merman’s perfunctory mouth, he only said one sentence: “Is the cub very weak and needs more protection.”

Ji Xuanbing immediately froze: “You’re right, we should wake up.”

It is not easy for the merman clan to have cubs. When one appears, it is a notification that the whole clan must beat gongs and drums, but the protection of the clan is very tight, and the cubs who are not grown up are always followed by adults. He and his husband’s cub must have been born. Everyone loves it. Anyone who sees it wants to steal it with a sack, so he must be vigilant.

Ji Xuanbing didn’t want to be separated from Jiang Chaosheng in the first place, but now it’s alright, basically sticking to Jiang Chaosheng’s body righteously, and returning to Wangzhou City from the island, the two of them never separated along the way. After a month or two, Jiang Chaosheng had to be there for whatever he did.

Jiang Chaosheng felt that it was fine, but some people in the city had opinions. The more grumpy Curl was the first to express his dissatisfaction: “For serious matters, I don’t like having extra people present, it really affects the efficiency.”

He actually has no objection to the city lord’s wife. Ji Xuanbing is very good-looking, and it is the most expensive kind of vase, but Ji Xuanbing comes every time, but he doesn’t do business. Every time he yawns and sleeps, he stares at Jiang Chaosheng. Look, it really affects the atmosphere.

It has been almost two or three months since the two got married. They all said that the newlywed honeymoon was three months. Lou Zhan couldn’t stand this embarrassment, and he couldn’t bear the grievance.

In front of many people, Curly Er made a very disgusting remark: “I don’t care what you do at other times. In such a serious occasion, there is me without him, and he without me!”

This is too serious, and Jiang Chaosheng’s face changed immediately: “This king invited you to come here, not for you to point fingers at the princess!”

The two of them quarreled so badly that day, the curling ears left directly, and they also took away many of their own students. The two of them didn’t talk in private. There were many outsiders present that day, and the story of the two sides tearing up their faces quickly spread.

As the lord of a city, there are people staring at every move, and Jiang Chaosheng’s affairs are immediately arranged in private near Qiongzhou.

The deputy city lord of Wangzhou City said: “I see that the new city lord can’t do anything, and he still relies on his mother to help. Now it’s better, he was fascinated by a woman, and the helpers that the third prince finally invited for him were all thrown out. out.”

The fifth son of the city lord just got married, and the relationship between the husband and wife is good, but they have their own opinions: “I think that curling ears is also, thinking about it and knowing that being a mistress is more important, he said it so ugly, normal people must be choose his own wife.”

The love story of Qiongzhou City is still circulating in many places. If King An hurts his wife’s heart for an outsider, the love myth will be shattered, and it will also affect Jiang Chaosheng’s reputation.

The city lord glanced at his youngest son: “People are telling the truth, no mistress is in charge of business affairs, and women should be in charge of the house. What do you know, if King An scolds his wife for the sake of curling his ears, that means he is a good lord. .”

A strategist, or a strategist who thinks he is very talented, definitely hopes that the lord will see himself as very important, and some words are harsh, but in the eyes of some people, what he makes is a very serious request, and he does not let him. The city lord divorced his wife, just to tell the other party not to keep irrelevant people by his side all the time, this is not an exaggeration at all.

Which is a serious man, who sticks with his wife every day and cannot be separated. Qiongzhou City’s main color is one of the reasons, and Qiongzhou City’s wife’s life is too leisurely for another reason. Others have to serve their parents-in-law, socialize with others, and raise their children. Even if they don’t need to do some chores, they are enough to worry about.

The city owner’s wife didn’t like to socialize with people at all, she didn’t accept any social events, and there was no in-laws to serve, and there were no concubines fighting back and forth.

As for opening a shop and managing his career, Ji Xuanbing obviously doesn’t have any career aspirations. He can sell pearls for a lot of money just by crying. After showing his identity to his husband, he doesn’t need to cry. Many gems he collected before can be sold for money. .

There are not many things that the merman likes, those shiny pearls and gems, the stuff on his seabed is much better than the human world, Ji Xuanbing is very picky, and he doesn’t like it at all. Although he eats a lot, Ji Xuanbing’s family is rich, and he can eat those things for a lifetime.

His favorite thing, fighting is barely the same, but unfortunately now that he is pregnant with a little shark, it is impossible to go to Hei Jiao’s territory to fight with each other.

The second son of the city lord felt that his father paid too much attention to his new neighbor: “Father, I think King An is ineffective. During this period of time, he is just messing around. He has his own elder brother, and he can’t help him. You don’t have to worry at all.”

The people under him said every word and every word: “That is, Qiongzhou City is so broken, and I have to start from scratch, I have so many hundreds of hands, anyone can revitalize the dead water, they bought some over there. There are only a few thousand slaves, how much money can they have to buy slaves.”

In order to avoid self-respect for the army, the imperial court stipulated the number of officials and nobles to keep slaves. Buying a few thousand is the upper limit for Jiang Chaosheng to own slaves. The emperor has so many sons, and King An is really unsatisfactory.

After a few discussions, they decided to withdraw some of the people who were inquiring about Qiongzhou City. Their people went to Qiongzhou City to do business, and during this time, they sent a lot of money to the next door.

“cuckoo” “quack”

The seagull put away its white wings, stopped in front of Ji Xuanbing, and repeated the private meeting of the fish in the city next door.

Various seabirds can often be seen in the seaside city, they park on the high palm trees, and will not attract the attention of others at all. Everyone only knows that parrot starlings can learn to speak, and they usually don’t care about seagulls who can’t speak human words.

Ji Xuanbing translated what the seagull said to Jiang Chaosheng word for word again, and among these people, Lou Zhan, who was also “dissatisfied” with the city lord’s wife, was also there.

After listening to Ji Xuanbing’s translation, his resolute face showed a bit of guilt: “This period of time has sullied Madam’s reputation.”

Ji Xuanbing waved his hand very generously: “I don’t care if you can’t eat reputation or something.”

Saying so, Ji Xuanbing still stared at Jiang Chaosheng: “Anyway, my husband will definitely not treat me badly because of people outside?”

Jiang Chaosheng drank water strategically: “Yes, you are a disaster, I am a sex/ghost. None of us dislike anyone.”

Jiang Chaosheng was not in a hurry. As soon as he returned to Qiongzhou Island, he specially wrote a letter to the palace to announce the good news, telling the imperial concubine’s mother Ji Xuanbing that she was pregnant and needed to recuperate. Some people who shouldn’t be sent here will destroy the harmony of the family.

However, along with the gift of the “daughter-in-law” sent by the concubine, there was another letter, the old emperor was suddenly seriously ill and was bedridden, and he might not be able to last for too long.
