Chapter 434 Yueshi

Yueshi Royal City.

On the street, camels carried specialties from the Western Regions, led by merchants, to the market in Yuezhi King City.

As the most important node connecting the east and west, Yuezhi Royal City's commerce is particularly developed. Here, you can see merchants from various countries in the Western Regions and even further west, and sometimes you can also see envoys from the Huns.

It's just that today, an unusual disturbance broke out in the market. Using noise as the most standard judgment, the sound was a bit too much.

The window was opened a crack, and a glimmer of light filtered through the dark room.

Mokdu's eyes looked at the carriages on the street and the people beside them.

"looking at what?"

A pair of white arms hugged Mokdu from behind, and with a little naughtiness, the charming woman blew gently into his ear.

"Are those Qin people?"

The woman glanced at it and didn't seem to care.

"Maybe! My husband told me that a caravan from Qin State recently arrived, bringing a hundred carts of goods."

"Is that so?"

Mokdu murmured, with a bit of hatred in his eyes.

The door of the room opened gently, and a maid lowered her head and spoke softly.

"Madam, the master will be back soon."

After the maid finished speaking, she left, not daring to look inside the room.

A joy that still has traces of it in the house. The woman holding Mokdu kissed him, feeling a little nostalgic.

"The good times are always so fleeting."

Mokdu smiled softly and held her hand.

"I'm looking forward to having a good time with you next time."

The woman stood up, naked with her tall and beautiful body, only wearing a thin gauze dress, and walked out of the room.

Mokdu seemed a little tired, turned over and lay on the bed, closing his eyes.

Soon, Tudor came in from outside and opened all the windows.

The dark room suddenly became very bright, and Mokdu squinted his eyes, looking a little lazy.

"Teacher, what are you doing?"

"Who was that woman just now?"

"Yamina, the wife of Stellan, the deputy captain of the palace guard, is a rare beauty."

As he spoke, Mokdu smiled, a little joyfully, and with the pleasure of revenge.

"Yamina complained to me that even though Stellan is tall, strong and handsome, he always raises his nostrils when he sees me, but that's not the case with him."

Tudor frowned and spoke sternly.

"You are not doing your job these days. Apart from hooking up with those ladies, what else have you done?"

"Teacher, I think you should find a woman. The Yueshi Royal City is prosperous and there are many beauties who like you."

Mokdu was lying on the bed, with a shaggy beard but very charming, and a look of melancholy in his eyes.

With a snap, Tudor knocked away Mokdu's outstretched hand.

"Have you forgotten Zhao Shuang's hatred for seizing the city?"

After listening to Tudor's words, he seemed to be stimulated, and Mokdu's words were filled with anger.

"What can I do? I was driven out by Zhao Shuang's army and fled here like a dog. Until now, I don't even know what my enemy looks like."

Tudor sat down, put his hands on Mokdu's shoulders, and comforted him.

"Listen, Mokdu, you are a king! The road to becoming a king may be difficult and dangerous, but you must get through it."

"but I……"

Feeling his teacher's gentle gaze, Mokdu lowered his head.

"There is an opportunity, and you must seize it. Barrett will hold a banquet recently, and you and he will have a quarter of an hour to talk. You must seize it."

"But what should I do? That old guy doesn't even want to see me. Even for a quarter of an hour, it may not be useful."

"This time is different."

Tudor said, a little excited.

"I have inquired clearly. Among the major Xihous of the Yuezhi, Barrett and his allies do not support trade with Qin."

"Why?"

"Barrett had a good relationship with the Huns and monopolized trade with the East. But Zhao Shuang got involved and his interests suffered a lot."

"I see!"

The huge room, as grand as a palace, is brightly lit at the moment.

In the center of everyone's attention, the protagonist of the party stood.

The Great Lord Barrett and his wife Kulak.

Barrett is exquisitely and luxuriously dressed, and is one of the great princes. However, the exquisite clothes could not hide his fatness and ugliness.

The woman standing next to Barrett was young and beautiful. There are many beauties in this room, but compared with them, they are like maids.

The guests at the banquet were all prominent figures in the Yuezhi family, and there were even many nobles from small countries in the Western Regions.

After Barrett delivered his speech, he and Kulak went to a nearby courtyard to rest.

The banquet was very joyful, and while Barrett was resting, many people came over and presented gifts as usual.

When Mokdu arrived, Barrett's eyes lost the perfunctory look before and became serious.

"You are Mokdu, the man who captured the city by the Qin people."

Mokdu lowered his head. Although he was stung by these words, there was still a smile on his face.

"Yes, noble Lord Xi. This is my gift to you and your wife."

Kulak stood by, looking at the handsome and strong Mokdu, with a strange look in his eyes. Mokdu's eyes were like gems, exuding charming charm. Compared with Barrett, he was like God's beloved creation and a kicked-over shit basin.

Kulak opened the box and saw two luminous pearls in the box, with a look of surprise on his face.

"This is……"

"Only the most precious and beautiful luminous pearl can be worthy of the prince and his wife."

Kulak was very happy, leaning against Barrett and talking coquettishly.

"Xihou, I am very satisfied."

Barrett clapped her hand, turned to look at Mokdu, and asked a question.

"Do you know Hanyang Lord Zhao Shuang?"

"He is a young lord of the Qin State, with a powerful army in his hands. Everyone in Qin is aware of the greed for land, and sometimes, in order to seize land, they will choose to trade first. This is how I was captured. .”

Mokdu's half-truths made Barrett frown, seeming worried.

"Are you saying that the feudal lord of Qin also desires the Yueshi's land?"

"Zhao Shuang may not dare to offend the powerful Yuezhi for the time being, but at this time, the city he built on the border contains great ambitions."

"Then what are your countermeasures?"

"The military is the foundation!"

Mokdu took out another box and handed it to Barrett. When he opened it, he was a little surprised.

"This this……"

"This is the military art used by the great king a hundred years ago when he conquered countless countries. By training the army with this method, it will surely be able to withstand powerful enemies."

Barrett looked at Mokdu with some caution and asked.

"Why give it to me?"

"Because I have a common enemy with Lord Xi."

Barrett fell into a long silence. At this time, Kulak was blowing wind next to him.

"Marquis Xi, I think this guy is good. Why don't you give him a chance and let him try?"

A smile appeared on Barrett's face, and he held Kurak in his arms, lovingly.

"Okay! Since Madam has spoken, I will let him try."

"In this way, I have an army of a thousand people, you can be their commander first!"

"Thank you, Xihou!"

Mokdu bowed, and when he saw the gaze cast by Kulak in Barrett's arms, he immediately lowered his head and smiled at the corner of his mouth.
