Chapter 435: Happy to miss Shu
There was a burst of applause from the audience.
Li Yong's kung fu and status are both plus points, but his appearance is a bit disappointing.
Liu Erdan was squeezed in the crowd. He was young and not in a hurry to find a partner. He came today to support his brothers.
He shouted with a megaphone:
"Brother Yong is famous, and he has a house in Yunting Yayuan!"
The men and women in the audience burst into laughter.
The matchmaker took the microphone and continued:
"Tsk tsk, it's not easy to buy a house in Yunting Yayuan. There are not many single guys of this quality. Girls who are interested can throw sachets to them!"
Taking into account that women of that era were not bold enough to go on stage to express their love, "A Date on the Magpie Bridge" would give each participating woman a sachet with a small bead with her surname hanging on it.
The scene was very lively and soon someone started throwing sachets of sachets onto the arch bridge.
There were two in total. The matchmaker picked them up and said with a smile:
"There are two girls who are interested in Lord Li. You can follow Hongniang to the teahouse in the back to have a private conversation with Lord Li."
Behind the matchmaker was a little girl in a pink dress. She took the sachet and took Li Yong to the back.
Li Yong was very happy.
Not bad, not bad, two girls are interested in him.
Two girls also quietly left the crowd and walked towards the teahouse at the back.
Li Yong would chat with the two girls individually in the private room of the teahouse and choose the girl he liked.
The matchmaker was inviting new single men to the bridge.
Leo stuffed the snacks he bought into the arms of the special forces soldier behind him, squeezed through the crowd, and ran onto the arch bridge.
The matchmaker was stunned. How come there was a foreigner here?
Leo talked a lot, but the matchmaker didn't understand a word and could only say awkwardly:
"Uh, this guy has fair skin. Is there any girl you like?"
The girls below didn't react.
Although Leo looks good, he has a scar on his face, which makes him look like a ruthless person. Moreover, in this era, the Han people are more or less exclusive of foreigners.
Leo imitated Li Yong and punched again, but still no girl threw a sachet at him.
The young men below were fed up and started to make a noise:
"Go down! Why is a foreigner joining in the fun?"
"Yes, how could a Han girl like a foreigner?"
"Stop taking up space!"
Although Leo couldn't understand what these people were shouting, he could tell from their expressions that they were trying to drive him down.
He said depressedly:
“What a lack of taste!”
Then jump off the arch bridge.
The monarchs of other countries standing below originally wanted to join in the fun, thinking that perhaps they were so charming that they could throw sachets all over the bridge.
But when I saw Leo's miserable condition, I thought it would be better to forget it. Not only did I not have a romantic encounter, but it was also embarrassing.
Tour guide Wen continued to show people around.
Even he himself couldn't help but sigh.
In the past, Kyoto was always deserted at night. Apart from the red-light district, there was no nightlife at all.
And now, less than a year has passed since Your Majesty ascended the throne, and there have been earth-shaking changes, as if a lifetime ago.
Everyone went shopping in the Hua Xia Department Store. The mall was so huge that it was almost midnight when they finished shopping. They went back to rest with a sense of unfulfilled desire.
The next day, Wen Qingyun took them on a bus to tour the new city of Kyoto and also went to the suburbs to see the fertile fields and crops.
The machines were watering and weeding, which made everyone sigh.
When we went back home at night, we let them ride bicycles and electric scooters.
As for cars, they don’t have a driver’s license, so they can only sit in them but not drive.
This alone fascinated the monarchs of various countries. Their royal luxury carriages were far superior to cars in terms of speed and comfort.
It's true that people have to die when compared with others, and goods have to be thrown away when comparing goods.
On the third day, Wen Qingyun took them to experience the high-speed rail and took a plane.
At this speed and altitude, the bodies and minds of the monarchs of various countries flew into the clouds.
Finally, he took them to the cinema to watch a modern war movie and told them that all the weapons in the movie were available in Fengyi Kingdom.
If anyone has evil intentions towards the prosperous Fengyi Kingdom, what awaits him will be bullets and cannons.
The three-day tour ended. On the fourth day, Wen Qingyun brought everyone into Chaoxi Palace.
This time, Gu Xi did not use the conference room, but the council hall.
Civil and military officials were separated on both sides. Dozens of monarchs walked in and saw the woman sitting on the dragon throne. She was majestic and noble.
Gu Xi said:
"Did you enjoy yourself these days, distinguished guests?"
Everyone nodded and praised the prosperity and wealth of Fengyi Country:
"Fengyi Country is indeed worthy of being called the Celestial Empire. What we have seen in the past few days has really opened our eyes."
Gu Xi smiled and said:
"As long as you are satisfied, then everyone, do you want your country and people to live like this?"
Everyone looked at each other in bewilderment. They were all foxes with thousands of years of experience, so they naturally knew that pie would not fall from the sky for free.
"Please tell me, Queen, what do we need to pay to achieve such a life?"
Gu Xi said:
"I will only help the people of my own country. If you are willing to submit to Fengyi Country, then what the people of Fengyi Country have, your people will naturally have too."
Gu Xi had already brainwashed them when he captured them, and he knew that mind control could suppress evil and promote good.
At this moment, when the monarchs of various countries consider things, they will stand at the height of the entire country rather than their own selfish desires.
Looking at them whispering below, Gu Xi was not in a hurry. She believed that these people would make the right choice, even if some of them were unwilling to accept it.
At worst, she could just change the prefect of this place.
Leo was the first to speak out:
"If Her Majesty keeps her word and allows the people of Sparta to live like this, I, as the king, can give up my duty. But I have one request. I want to join the army."
Gu Xi knew that this guy was still thinking about Gatlin.
"Okay, my original intention is to let you still govern your own territory, but to reduce the country to a prefecture, and you will be the prefect. Since you have this request, I will arrange a position of general for you."
This guy is energetic and warlike. If he is sent to America, he will surely make a name for himself.
Wen Qingyun also briefed them on the duties of the prefect. In fact, he was still the local top leader, but there was an imperial court under his jurisdiction.
In the end, most of the monarchs agreed to surrender. Some of them hesitated and said they wanted to go back to discuss the matter. Gu Xi nodded in agreement and gave them time.
After finishing the business, Gu Xi offered to send them back, but these people were still reluctant to leave Fengyi Kingdom.
One of them was chubby, and Gu Xi had forgotten which country he was the king of. He said regretfully:
"Your Majesty, can you let me stay here for a few more days?"
He admired the prosperity of Fengyi Kingdom very much, but he could not afford to provoke Fengyi Kingdom's military power.
It is better to surrender early.
Gu Xi said:
"Go back and work hard. It won't be long before your place will be the same as here."
Haha, I let you come here to broaden your horizons, and you are so happy that you don’t want to leave.
Gu Xi equipped each monarch, oh no, each prefect with communications soldiers and special forces to assist them in completing the regime change.
