Shop of All Worlds: The First Customer Princess Jinyang
Chapter 252: The Vile Liu Bang
These people are none other than the Black Ice Guards under Qin Shi Huang’s command.
Their duties were somewhat similar to those of Li Shimin’s Hundred Cavalry Division and Zhu Yuanzhang’s Embroidered Uniform Guard.
They were all responsible for secretly protecting Qin Shihuang’s safety, as well as collecting intelligence from across the country and monitoring all officials.
With the Black Ice Guards going to look for the three little guys, Qin Shihuang immediately lost his previous anxiety and a calm look appeared on his face.
Qin Shihuang slowly took out a cigarette he had bought from Ye Jiangnan’s Wanjie Store, lit it skillfully, and started smoking leisurely.
This cigarette is not only harmless to the body, but also has many benefits. It can refresh the mind and instantly restore vitality to the tired body and mind, and it can also nourish the body and is of great benefit to health.
The people passing by saw Qin Shihuang puffing out smoke and just glanced at him lightly without showing too much surprise.
They had already seen that many high-ranking officials and aristocratic children had something called “cigarette” in their mouths.
So it’s not surprising.
At this moment, Qin Shi Huang was smoking comfortably here, quietly waiting for the Black Ice Guard to bring back news about the three little guys.
On the other hand, Liu Bang was not so relaxed. He was in dire straits.
Lü Zhi grabbed Liu Bang’s ear with one hand, her eyes revealed fierceness and dissatisfaction, stared at Liu Bang straightly, and asked sternly:
“Tell me the truth, what did you do behind my back?”
“I actually lost more than two thousand taels of gold!”
Although she is now the queen, Lu Zhi had experienced countless hardships with Liu Bang in her early years and lived a hard life.
Because of this, she attaches great importance to money and power, and will not tolerate any waste or loss.
Liu Bang had a bitter face, full of helplessness and pleading, and said quickly:
“Queen, please let go first. As long as you let go, I promise to tell you everything!”
However, Lu Zhi didn’t buy Liu Bang’s tricks at all. She said in a harsher tone:
“You’d better say it now!”
“If you don’t tell me, I will grab your ears and call all the ministers over to show them what you look like!”
Liu Bang was in a panic and had a look of embarrassment on his face, but under the pressure of Lv Zhi, he had no choice but to say helplessly:
“Okay, okay, I’ll tell you, it’s not okay!”
Lu Zhi snorted coldly, her eyes revealed a hint of majesty, and ordered:
“Say!”
Liu Bang did not dare to hide anything and told everyone the details of how he came to Ye Jiangnan and how he got to know Qin Shihuang and others.
In fact, he had planned to greet Ye Jiangnan and Qin Shihuang after some time, then find a suitable opportunity to tell his son and queen, and finally take them to Ye Jiangnan’s Wanjie Store.
But who could have thought that plans could not keep up with changes, and before he could even open his mouth, the matter had already been exposed.
After Liu Bang finished speaking, Lu Zhi stared at him suspiciously, her eyes full of suspicion.
Liu Bang’s words seemed to be logically flawless, but for some reason, they always sounded like a lie.
Fairy?
First Emperor?
Fusu?
Hu Hai?
The future emperor?
These people and things sound too bizarre to be believed.
As for other people and things, Lu Zhi might not know much about them, and had never heard of them, but she knew them very well about the First Emperor, Fusu and Hu Hai.
Her own emperor actually said that he had met these three people, and they did not beat Liu Bang to death or disable him. To Lu Zhi, this was unbelievable and impossible.
Therefore, Lü Zhi said mercilessly:
“Do you think I will believe your nonsense?”
“Tell me the truth, who did you go gambling with?”
After that, Lu Zhi changed her tone and tried her best to persuade him:
“Your Majesty, you are now the emperor, and your status is extremely noble. You should no longer indulge in gambling.”
“gamble……”
As she spoke, Lu Zhi’s emotions gradually calmed down and her hands unconsciously loosened.
Seeing this, Liu Bang hurried forward and took Lü Zhi’s hand, his eyes full of sincerity, and said softly:
“Queen, I really didn’t lie to you. I really did meet an immortal!”
“If you don’t believe me, I will take you to see the immortal right now and let you see it with your own eyes.”
Under Lü Zhi’s suspicious gaze, Liu Bang took out the store membership card and said confidently:
“Queen, I’ll take you there right now!”
As soon as he finished speaking, a dazzling white light instantly enveloped Liu Bang and Lu Zhi.
Under Liu Ying’s shocked gaze, Liu Bang and Lu Zhi just disappeared out of thin air.
Liu Ying opened his eyes wide, looking at everything in front of him in disbelief. He looked around quickly, but still could not find any trace of his parents.
“Is it really gone?”
Liu Ying muttered to himself, his face full of shock and confusion.
Suddenly, he seemed to remember something important and shouted:
“Father, I haven’t gone yet!”
“Please take me with you!”
However, how could Liu Bang, who had already gone to Ye Jiangnan, hear Liu Ying’s call?
……
Store of All Worlds.
Liu Bang and Lu Zhi appeared in Ye Jiangnan’s yard in a flash of light.
Liu Bang had a proud smile on his face, as if this was his home, and said to Lu Zhi proudly:
“Queen, look, this is the residence of the immortal.”
“How about it, I didn’t lie to you?”
Lu Zhi nodded blankly, her eyes full of curiosity and surprise.
Liu Bang continued to introduce with great interest:
“See that room ahead?”
“That’s where the immortals sell their magic items. There are many rare treasures in there that you have never seen before.”
“The tree next to it was planted by an immortal himself. I heard from the First Emperor that the fruit on the tree is an immortal fruit. Eating one can prolong your life and prevent all diseases.”
“The cute creature lying under the tree is a pet of an immortal. Its name is Moyu. It is an iron-eating beast. It is not only cute, but also very intelligent.”
“And that river over there…”
Liu Bang enthusiastically introduced to Lu Zhi the various scenes of the Wanjie Store one by one. These were all what he had carefully inquired about from Qin Shihuang.
Even though Liu Bang only played cards with Qin Shi Huang every time he came.
However, every time they played cards, Liu Bang would ask about Ye Jiangnan and Wanjie Store.
These were no secrets, and Qin Shihuang was happy to tell Liu Bang.
Anyway, he has nothing to lose and can even show off his prowess in front of Liu Bang, so why not do it?
Lu Zhi still nodded blankly, with curiosity flashing in her eyes, and couldn’t help asking:
“That person over there must be the immortal, right?”
“I didn’t expect that the immortal is so young!”
Lu Zhi looked at Chenxiang who was sitting cross-legged and practicing next to Mo Yu. The immortal she had originally imagined was an old man with a sage-like demeanor, white hair and a youthful face. However, the scene before her was completely different from her imagination, which surprised her very much.
Liu Bang followed Lu Zhi’s gaze and explained with a smile:
“Queen, you misunderstood. That is not an immortal.”
“He is the disciple of the immortal.”
Lu Zhi suddenly understood and nodded.
She thought to herself, I said it myself, an immortal should be otherworldly and full of fairy spirit, how could he look as young as her own child Liu Ying?
“Where is the immortal?” Lu Zhi asked again.
Liu Bang looked around but didn’t see Ye Jiangnan. When he was about to speak, Ye Jiangnan and Yu Shu came out of the elevator hand in hand.
“The Immortal is coming!”
Liu Bang said quickly, with a respectful look on his face.
Lu Zhi followed Liu Bang’s gaze and saw Ye Jiangnan and Yu Shu walking towards them hand in hand.
Ye Jiangnan wore a clean white shirt on his upper body, black trousers on his lower body, and a pair of clean white shoes on his feet. He looked refreshing and capable.
Yu Shu was wearing a black dress, which was elegant and graceful, showing her feminine beauty.
The two people’s attire seemed very strange to Lu Zhi, completely different from the clothes she usually saw, which made her stunned.
“Fairy!”
Liu Bang hurriedly saluted Ye Jiangnan respectfully with a very pious attitude.
Then, Liu Bang turned to look at Lu Zhi beside him, with a respectful look on his face, and said anxiously:
“Hurry and pay your respects to the Immortal.”
Lü Zhi finally came back to her senses from her shock, a trace of panic appeared on her face, and she quickly bowed and saluted, with a hint of nervousness in her voice, and said:
“Lü Zhi has seen an immortal.”
Ye Jiangnan nodded gently, his eyes moved away from Lu Zhi and fell on Liu Bang’s face. With a hint of doubt in his eyes, he asked:
“Why did you come suddenly?”
“Did Lao Zhao invite you to play mahjong again?”
Ye Jiangnan frowned slightly, thinking secretly in his heart. He really couldn’t understand why Qin Shihuang was always keen on inviting Liu Bang to play mahjong. Was it really just because Liu Bang had once destroyed the Qin Dynasty?
“No no!”
Liu Bang quickly waved his hands, an awkward smile on his face, a hint of helplessness in his eyes, and explained.
“It was my wife. She didn’t believe that I had really seen a fairy, so I brought her here to see for herself.”
“Also, I lost some money playing mahjong with the First Emperor and his men before, but my wife didn’t believe it and insisted on coming to confirm it in person.”
After listening to Liu Bang’s explanation, Ye Jiangnan shook his head slightly, looked at him helplessly, and muttered to himself: You, Liu Bang, are the king of a country after all, but you are so afraid of your own wife. Who would believe it if I tell this to others?
“Okay, I get it.”
Ye Jiangnan sighed softly, nodded, and spoke in a calm tone.
Then, Ye Jiangnan turned his gaze to Lü Zhi who was beside Liu Bang, raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a gentle smile, and asked softly:
“Do you believe it now?”
Lu Zhi’s cheeks flushed slightly, and a hint of embarrassment flashed across her eyes. She lowered her head in embarrassment and stammered:
“I believe it. I believe it.”
Ye Jiangnan did not go out of his way to entertain the two of them. He simply told them to be casual, and then he sat on the sofa with Yu Shu, turned on the TV, and watched it leisurely.
Liu Bang didn’t dare to disturb Ye Jiangnan’s pleasant time, and carefully took Lu Zhi into the store.
He had only been into the store a few times.
Every time he entered a store, Liu Bang wanted to buy something, but in the end he didn’t buy anything.
It’s not because Liu Bang didn’t have enough things to exchange for currency to buy things.
It’s just that he is a person who cares about his reputation and is a little shy. He is afraid that others will see what he bought and feel that he has lost face.
As for what he wanted to buy…
If Zheng Ge and the others saw him buying it, he would be so ashamed.
Inside the store.
“Why did you pull me here?”
Lu Zhi frowned, her tone filled with impatience.
“I haven’t bought that comb and mirror over there yet!”
“By the way, I also saw cosmetics being sold over there. According to the description, applying them can make your skin glow and keep you young. I was planning to buy some.”
Lu Zhi glared at Liu Bang with dissatisfaction. She had not had the time to buy the things she liked, but was dragged here by Liu Bang. Anyone would be unhappy if it were her.
Liu Bang put on a flattering smile, with a sly look in his eyes, and said with a wretched look:
“Queen, please don’t be anxious. I have seen a few pieces of clothing and I want to buy some for you.”
Lu Zhi frowned even more tightly, her eyes revealed disdain, and said:
“Come on, your vision is nothing compared to mine.”
“I can choose my own clothes.”
Liu Bang said hurriedly:
“Hey, Queen, please take a look first and then tell us.”
“I can guarantee that this dress will look great on you. It will make you look like a fairy when you put it on.”
Lu Zhi looked at Liu Bang suspiciously, hesitated for a moment, and said:
“Okay, I’ll take a look then.”
“Where are the clothes?”
Liu Bang showed a smug smile on his face and pointed behind Lu Zhi, signaling her to look back.
Lu Zhi looked in the direction Liu Bang pointed, and her face instantly turned red.
I saw the clothes on the shelves at the back. The fabrics were very thin and the designs were very bold.
Simply put, those cannot be considered clothes, they are just very simple fabrics.
Although Lu Zhi had never worn such clothes and it was the first time she saw them, she immediately understood the purpose of these clothes with her woman’s intuition.
“Your Majesty, the child is already this big, and you are still so disrespectful.”
Lu Zhi gave Liu Bang a cold look with a look of reproach in her eyes.
Liu Bang smiled obscenely and said shamelessly:
“What’s that?”
“We can also give Ying’er another brother or sister.”
Lu Zhi rolled her eyes and said unhappily:
“If you want to give birth, go ahead and give birth yourself. I won’t give birth to any more.”
“Do you think having a baby is an easy thing?”
“When I gave birth to Ying’er and Lu Yuan, I suffered enough pain from giving birth.”
Liu Bang smiled and said:
“Queen, it’s okay not to have a baby.”
“I also saw something over there that is not used for having children.”
Lu Zhi rolled her eyes at him again, then quickly picked up a few pieces of “clothes” and threw them into her shopping bag with a hint of embarrassment on her face.
“hey-hey……”
Liu Bang smiled awkwardly, thinking to himself that he would have to “serve” the Queen well tonight and might not even have time to sleep.
–
Da Qin, Xianyang City.
The three little guys were brought back by the Black Ice Guards.
At first, the three little guys thought that the Black Ice Guard was a human trafficker with ill intentions. They were very vigilant in their eyes and even secretly practiced their skills, preparing to resist.
The Black Ice Guard learned from his own Majesty how powerful the three little princesses were. He did not dare to be negligent and hurriedly showed his identity card, which was clearly engraved with the exclusive mark of Qin Shihuang.
Ying Yinman recognized it as her father’s token at a glance, and then she remembered that she seemed to have lost her father.
So, the three little guys put away their guard and followed the Black Ice Guard obediently to the side of Qin Shi Huang. (End of this chapter)
