Prince is a slave

"Iroka said, "The carriage of the Jue Mansion has already stopped outside the gate of the palace.Come back with me, it's getting late. "

Su Yue stopped what he was doing, straightened up and stared at Yi Luojia, with a sneering smile on his lips: "Ping Xijue, let me ask you, are you really going to be such a good person and take in a messy dog ​​in the water? "

"Maybe it's a wolf." Yi Luojia corrected him calmly, "Su Yue, how can your means be comparable to that of a dog in the water?"

Su Yue sneered: "...I won't be grateful to you."

"I know."

"Leave me at your house, I may wait for the opportunity to escape."

"I know."

"I might find a chance to take your head."

"I know."

Su Yue paused for a moment. For the first time, he looked at this man very seriously, from his slightly raised eyes to his straight nose, he looked at him inch by inch, and then he said: "Ping Xijue, I have a I want to ask you a question."

"You said."

"...Are you really 35?"

Yi Luojia raised his pale golden eyebrows in surprise, and stared at the serious Su Yue. After a while, he smiled and nodded without hesitation.

The hierarchy system of the Yibei Kingdom is similar to that of the Shang Kingdom. The highest rank is the king. The king usually enshrines the eldest son as the prince, and the rest are the sons. The descendants of the surname Yi can be granted titles.

Due to their noble status, the treatment enjoyed by the nobles is also very generous. They can take a carriage in the palace without having to go outside the palace gate. The carriage is quite spacious and is pulled by six horses. Inside the carriage is a soft couch, a long pillow, and a fox velvet quilt. , and even incense.

Yi Luojia and Su Yue walked down the corridor of the palace without a word. Su Yue's shackles had been loosened, but he was still wearing prison clothes. When the two walked down the long steps, a group of sergeants in armor rushed towards them.

Su Yue caught a glimpse of the heroic man among them, his complexion was slightly gloomy, and then he lowered his face, pursing his lips tightly, unwilling to meet him face to face.

"General Lin." Yi Luojia greeted the visitor.

Lin Ruizhe and a group of his subordinates stopped in their tracks. Lin Ruizhe nodded briefly to Yi Luojia and said, "The banquet is over?"

"It's over." Yi Luojia still had a gentle and polite smile, "General Lin rushed to Beizhao Hall in a hurry, but what happened?"

"I just received an urgent report that there is less money in the city's common survival insurance. This is the third theft since the beginning of spring. Some people suspect that the stolen money was embezzled by internal officials. I am going to talk to the Registrar's Office Wang. My lord, verify the situation..." Lin Ruizhe said, and glanced at Su Yue who was standing beside Yi Luojia, he didn't react at first, and directly looked away, but after a pause for a few seconds, he suddenly turned around again He looked at Su Yue in astonishment: "...is it you?...my king didn't kill you?"

"Fate is cheap, people are cheap, you can't die." Su Yue said coldly, "General Lin is unhappy?"

Lin Ruizhe looked at Su Yue, then at Yi Luojia, his long eyebrows were tightened suddenly, and he asked solemnly: "...What's going on?" Walked out of the gate of Beizhao Palace alive? ! "

"General, is this the vicious prince of Shang Kingdom?!" The subordinate next to Lin Ruizhe asked with wide-eyed eyes.

A soldier asked: "He killed the princess?!"

"It's this bastard? General, why didn't you kill him? Why didn't you avenge the princess?!"

"That's right, I killed Yi Xiaona. I am the Crown Prince of the Shang Kingdom." Su Yue looked coldly at these warriors with cracked eyes and gritted silver teeth, and said without fear, "But your master You haven’t spoken yet, why are you barking like a bunch of wild dogs?”

"Su Yue! Shut your mouth, you are just a prisoner now! I won't allow you to insult my subordinates!" Lin Ruizhe pulled out the sword from his waist and pointed it at Su Yue's throat.

Su Yue looked along the sharp sword, and looked at the familiar black eyes, which were rare in Yi Beibei, the pupils of Shang people, and the pupils of his hometown.

He laughed, but there was only coldness in his eyes.

"Lin Ruizhe, you ignorant idiot..."

The sharp point of the sword pierced Su Yue's skin too fast, and after a moment's pause, the blood flowed down silently along the texture of the skin, dyeing the point of the sword as bright red as a maple leaf.

"General Lin, calm down and put down the sword first." Yi Luojia stepped forward and said to the furious Lin Ruizhe.

"What do you want to do? I killed him to avenge the princess. Is there any problem?"

"No problem." Yi Luojia replied calmly, "But General Lin, Su Yue is not afraid of death and life, and he has never made a trip to survive. The reason why he can get out of Beizhao Palace alive is only because of me. "

"because of you?"

Yi Luojia looked at Su Yue, then at the soldiers brought by Lin Ruizhe, and said, "Please take a step to speak."

Lin Ruizhe hesitated, he stared at Su Yue for a moment, bit his lip, finally lowered the tip of his sword, and followed Yi Luojia to the side.Yi Luojia talked to him calmly, with a gentle smile on his lips. Without knowing it, others would think that he was discussing with Lin Ruizhe which dish was the best for the dinner.

After a while, Lin Ruizhe seemed to be understood by Yi Luojia, but his complexion was still not very good. He returned to the steps with a livid face, gave Su Yue a hard look, waved his hand, and said to the soldiers: "Let's go!" .”

"General Lin, won't you kill him?"

Lin Ruizhe ignored his subordinates, but turned to Iloka and said, "Ping Xijue, I will trust you for now and let him go... But you, please don't forget your promise."

"Naturally dare not forget."

Yi Luojia smiled and agreed, and then watched as Lin Ruizhe led the still aggrieved soldiers past them and rushed deeper into the palace.

"What did you promise him?" When their backs disappeared around the corner, Su Yue turned around and asked Yi Luojia.

However, Iroja just shook his head and led him towards the six-horse carriage waiting outside the hall.

The author has something to say: After reading it again, I found that the dialogue between Su Yue and Yi Luojia was indeed somewhat familiar, so I made some revisions. Thank you for the readers who gave comments below~ Ha ha

7. Entering the government...

The wheels of the wheels rolled over the blue brick ground, and Iroka raised a corner of the thick snow-blue curtain, looking at the night outside the carriage.

From Wangcheng to Pingxi Juefu, it takes about three cups of tea. On the way, you have to pass through the most prosperous market in Wangcheng. Compared with Shangguo, Yibei’s commodity trading is relatively free and loose, and the time and space of trading are not limited. Neighbors There are small stalls and big shops everywhere in the alleys.From Shenji Steamed Bun Shop in the west to Aker Inn in the east, from Fuxiang Brothel in the south to Besuna Bank in the north, there are all kinds of products ranging from bamboo stick earrings to wooden water-turning carts. all available.

The loose trading environment in Elbe makes the business here develop like weeds. The variety of products increases almost explosively every day. The largest market is full of people every hour. The dawn market opened again, selling all kinds of porridge and pasta, a thriving and prosperous scene.

"This sapphire headgear is a top-grade genuine product that can be exchanged for fakes. It costs three hundred and nine Nabels, and I won't sell it for a penny less."

"Three hundred and nine nabels? Don't talk nonsense. How is this sapphire? Do you think I don't have eyes? Ninety nabels. If you don't sell it, forget it."

The sound of buying and selling at the roadside jewelry stalls can be heard.With a gentle smile, Iroja sat in the luxurious and comfortable carriage quietly watching the lively night scene outside the window, and the strings of broken copper bells hanging on the window curtains jingled.

Su Yue was not interested in these vendors. He sat in the shadow of the corner of the carriage. After a long time, Iroja finally broke the silence: "The market price of Elbe's sapphires was not so expensive."

"..."

"However, the Huya Pass was defeated, and Elbe lost the most important trade route connecting Dawu. Every time he buys goods, he has to go around Guipo, which greatly increases the cost of transporting sapphires." Yi Luojia said lightly, "You Look, now you dare to sell three hundred and nine nabels."

Su Yue said: "...you led the army in the battle at Huyaguan, but you lost in the end."

"You are really ruthless and accurate in fighting, without any scruples."

"To be honest, I also narrowly won at Huya Pass. Of the [-] soldiers I took with me, less than [-] returned to the Shang Kingdom alive. Although your commercial avenues have been strangled, the losses have been heavy." Su Yue said calmly. explain.

"I have never met an opponent as difficult as you. In order to win, you dared to poison your own soldiers, then soaked them in water, infected a group of your soldiers with plague, and then threw their bodies At the water source of our army, my brothers who didn’t know about it were killed and crippled..." Yi Luojia smiled bitterly, "Su Yue, since I fought with you on the battlefield, I have I have firmly remembered your name, and I will never forget it, I think I will never meet another person like you who has no conscience but is full of means."

"Excellent reputation." Su Yue said lightly, "Whoever fights has stepped on thousands of bones and sucked blood from the soles of his shoes. The wicked have already done it, so why bother to pretend to be merciful."

Yi Luojia raised his eyebrows and said, "That's true. Su Yue, have you always spoken out like this without any shyness?"

"I didn't say it before. Because those people violated my will, I will directly send them to the gallows."

After a pause, he said: "But now I no longer have the status of being under one person and over ten thousand people, and I no longer have the right to take people's lives at will, but I still have a
