Ming: I am fake, walking on thin ice

Chapter 200: The Demon Queen: This night, I am not clean

Dusk, guild hall.

Roujia didn't expect Zhu Qizhen to come at this time. She was a little excited. Could it be that he was here to spend the night?
"Close the door." Zhu Qizhen said coldly.

Roujia blushed and closed the door. She turned around again and looked up into Zhu Qizhen's cold eyes. She knew that Master Zhu was not here to spend the night, but to call her to task.

"Sir, what's wrong?" she asked in a low voice.

Zhu Qizhen looked at her coldly and asked, "Have you ever seen a person wearing a dog mask?"

According to Chao Xiaotian's information, the man wearing the dog mask went out from the back door of the guild hall. What does this mean? Is the Junshan Club in collusion with the guild hall? But he still believes that Ning Rongrong will stand on his side. After all, only he can satisfy Ning Rongrong's wish.

"Mr. Zhu finally found out." Roujia nodded slowly, "Yes, the man with the dog mask came to the guild hall to see me a few days ago."

Zhu Qizhen asked anxiously: "Who is he?"

Roujia shook her head: "I don't know. Not only do I not know, but the Ning family also doesn't know. Our association only knows that he is a big shot. Because he asked us to supply goods to the northwest before."

Will Junshan supply goods to the Northwest?
Those were the goods of the Chamber of Commerce, sent to the northwest by the Weiyuan Escort Agency.

Zhu Qizhen understood everything in an instant, and then asked: "Are you still supplying it now?"

"No more!" Roujia said with certainty, "Master Ning specifically told us that even if the other party came to threaten our guild, we would not supply goods to the northwest, even if it meant we would be in trouble. He also told me that if...if we really couldn't solve the problem, I should look for you, Master Zhu."

Zhu Qizhen snorted coldly: "You hid it from me before, and now that something happened, you know to look for me?"

Roujia knelt down and bowed, "Master Zhu, our young lady has no choice. The other party is powerful and we are forced to do so. Moreover, the young lady said that one of them knows where we are from. The Ning family said that when she goes to Japan, she will have the trust of Master Zhu. With Master Zhu, we will not be afraid of them anymore."

"It's really the Ning family, they have such a clear plan." Zhu Qizhen snorted and asked, "What else do you know?"

Roujia pondered for a while, took out a notebook and handed it to Zhu Qizhen, saying: "This is what the Ning family left for you. It contains the detailed route of our shipment. In fact, we are all following orders and have no idea of ​​the other party's background."

Zhu Qizhen took the book and quickly scanned it. It contained the detailed route of the Chamber of Commerce's goods, as well as which checkpoints to go through, who to find to pass through, etc. With this, he could catch some traitors in Shaanxi and Gansu.

……

Night falls.

Zhu Qizhen just returned to Kunning Palace and shouted as soon as he entered the door: "Shuangxi, hurry up, I am starving to death."

"Yes." Shuangxi bowed and said, "Your Majesty, I have been waiting for you for a long time. I thought you would not come."

The queen leaned lazily on the cushion, her long black hair cascading down behind her like a waterfall. She was wearing a purple dress, her figure was enchanting, and her mature and royal charm was fascinating.

"Why are you so late?" She slowly stood up, put on slippers on her fair and well-proportioned feet, and walked over.

Zhu Qizhen admired her unscrupulously and smiled: "I just came back from a trip out of the palace."

When the demon queen came to him, he opened his arms and embraced her, and asked softly, "Why don't you leave the palace recently? If you feel bored, go out for a walk more often."

"I'm too lazy to move." The demon queen slightly tilted her beautiful face.

Zhu Qizhen couldn't help but nibble on her red lips, and the Queen cooperated skillfully. The two kissed passionately, not caring about Shuangxi who came out with the dishes.

After a long time, the lips opened.

The queen's elegant and mature face was flushed, and her eyes were shy: "Shuangxi is here, let's have dinner."

"I can't see anything." Shuangxi said with his head down.

The Queen burst into laughter, resting her head on Zhu Qizhen's shoulder, her face flushed: "Shuangxi has been corrupted by you."

"Why blame me?" Zhu Qizhen held his forehead with his hand, "It's you, okay?"

Shuangxi on the side said helplessly: "Let's eat first, it will get cold later."

The two of them then sat down to have their meal. The Queen continued to eat elegantly, while Zhu Qizhen devoured the meal with relish.

"The silk from Jiangnan has arrived today." The Demon Queen said, "The silk from Ning's Cotton Mill is of excellent quality. I like it very much."

Zhu Qizhen asked as he ate: "Have all the palaces been divided?"

The Demon Queen shook her head and said, "You have to ask Consort Xian about this. Anyway, I have it in my palace."

Zhu Qizhen raised his head, smiling: "You really don't care about the affairs of the harem?"

"Yes, so that people won't say that I won't give up my power." The Demon Queen pouted, "Besides, I will be old and ugly sooner or later, so it's better for me to step down now."

Zhu Qizhen shook his head repeatedly: "You are the most beautiful! The most beautiful in the harem!"

The Queen raised her lips slightly and glared at him: "I don't believe you! I would rather live outside the palace. When are you going to stay in that small courtyard for two days? You said March already."

"In the next few days." Zhu Qizhen spread his hands, "Yu Qian wants to discuss the preparations for the Northern Expedition with me."

The Demon Queen said "oh" and continued to drink her soup gracefully with her eyes drooping.

……

Japan, the southern coast of Kyushu.

A large fleet was approaching the shore. Ning Rongrong stood on a warship, looking at the crowd on the shore. Bai Wuqi walked up to her and reported: "Mr. Ning, those are refugees from Japan. Our camp has expanded recently and we have recruited many refugees from Japan. As long as they have enough food, they are willing to do any dirty or tiring work."

"Pay them all a salary." Ning Da's eyes were sharp. "If we want to operate in Japan for a long time, we need to win the hearts of the people."

Bai Wuqi nodded: "Yes!"

Mr. Ning looked back at the fleet and said, "This time, we will mainly sell the supplies and arms to the Takeda clan of Kai and the Nagao clan of Echigo."

Bai Wuqi's eyes were filled with disdain: "What country? It's not even as big as the territory of a prefect in our Daimyo. These people in Japan are really sitting in a well and looking at the sky, and they still think they are heroes."

Mr. Ning frowned slightly.

She made her judgment based on the letter Zhu Qizhen sent her and the current situation in Japan. Zhu Qizhen mentioned in the letter the "Tiger of Kai" Takeda Shingen, the "Dragon of Echigo" Uesugi Kenshin, the "Sixth Heavenly Demon King" Oda Nobunaga, etc. These names have not appeared yet. However, these families already have their own countries. According to Zhu Qizhen's suggestion, she will start long-term investment.

In fact, Zhu Qizhen's history of Japan is a piece of shit. He only remembers those characters, but not the specific years and months of their birth. Of course, he remembers a man named Toyotomi Hideyoshi, who finally ended the Warring States Period in Japan, but that guy must not have been born yet.

"Mr. Ning, it's time to get off the boat." Bai Wuqi reminded, "My subordinates just reported that the people from the Takeda family and the Nagao family have already arrived. They are afraid that we have sold the goods to one family."

Ning Rongrong raised her lips slightly: "We must be honest! We helped them, and we also want them to help us. This place is still too small. We want them to put pressure on the local big names, and we need to expand our territory."

"Yes." Bai Wuqi nodded with a smile.

……

After getting off the boat, she got on a carriage and returned to the camp.

Soon, the guardian of Echigo Province, Nagao Tamekage, came to visit the Ning family in person. He was a middle-aged man of short height, but he had a fierce aura.

"Ning family." Changwei Weijing said straight to the point, "If you only sell the goods to my Changwei family, I am willing to pay three times more."

"Even if you give me three times the price, I can't just sell it to you." Ning Rongrong said calmly.

Changwei Weijing's eyes suddenly became sharp: "This is Japan, Mr. Ning, aren't you afraid?"

Ning Rongrong sat upright on the chair and smiled coldly: "Are you threatening me? You can try it. The Takeda family can't destroy you in a short time. With me, let's see if I can destroy your Echigo country!"

Nagao Weijing's expression changed drastically. He gritted his teeth and bowed, saying, "Ning, you have misunderstood! You are our Echigo country's eternal friend."

"This is the first time, and the last time." Ning Dajia's voice was as cold as ice. "If you dare to threaten me again, you will bear the consequences yourself!"

"Sorry to bother you, Mr. Ning." Changwei Weijing bowed slightly and walked out.

After leaving the hall, he led his subordinates to escort the goods back to Yuehou. He turned his head and glanced, with murderous intent in his eyes.

Their Echigo Province was at war with the Takeda clan's Kai Province, and both sides needed weapons from the Ning family, but the Ning family actually supplied weapons to both sides.

"He's got the guts to die!" Nagao Weikage gritted his teeth.

However, he did not dare to do anything to the Ning family, because he needed weapons and supplies. He also inquired and found that only the Ning family's fleet had access to the southeast and the Ming Dynasty's waters in the east.

She is the queen of the sea!

……

Beijing, Qianqing Palace.

After the morning court, Zhu Qizhen convened a small court meeting.

"Your Majesty, Yesen attacked the Jianzhou Jurchen tribe." Yang Guifang said, "The Jianzhou Left Guard suffered a defeat and has led his troops to flee to the Wula Mountain Weng Village area. Haha, that Tongshan suffered a loss and remembered us. He said he wanted to pay tribute to us. He came to pay tribute in person and it is estimated that he will arrive in a few days."

Zhu Qizhen frowned.

Tongshan, the son of Mengge Timur, is said to be the ancestor of Aixinjueluo in the past life. Among his descendants, there is a strong man named Nurhaci.

"Do you need us to mediate?" Zhu Qizhen asked.

"It should be." Yang Guifang said, "Your Majesty, we are preparing to go on an expedition to worship, and the Jianzhou Jurchens can be used."

Zhu Qizhen nodded slowly: "Let them join us in attacking Yesen first, and then we can deal with them later. I tell you, we must suppress the Jurchen tribe and not let them become powerful."

Xu Youzhen hesitated for a moment and asked, "How should the court welcome this Tongshan? Should we welcome him warmly or give him a cold shoulder? This will allow the Ministry of Rites to have a response."

"He comes to pay tribute, so of course we have to be polite." Zhu Qizhen waved his hand, "I will summon him in person."

An idea suddenly popped up in his mind. If he had cut off Tongshan with a knife, would Nurhaci not have been born? And there would have been no Qing Dynasty later?
You know what, this idea is becoming stronger and stronger!
"Your Majesty, you will have a day off tomorrow. I will ask the Ministry of Rites to submit a memorial the day after tomorrow." Xu Youzhen said, "Since Tongshan has come here on his own initiative, we can make good use of it."

Zhu Qizhen finally realized that it was finally the end of the month and he could take a day off.

After finishing his government affairs, it was still early, so he came to Kunning Palace and planned to take the Demon Queen out of the palace to stay in the small courtyard for two days tomorrow.

……

When I stepped into the hall, I saw the Demon Queen reading a book. She was lying on her side on the soft couch, with a graceful figure and attractive curves, as if she was plump but boneless. Her white jade-like wrist gently lifted her delicate head, and her beautiful eyes revealed a casual laziness.

"Why have you come so early today?" She noticed Zhu Qizhen coming in and raised her eyelids slightly, her eyes moving around.

"There are few memorials today." Zhu Qizhen walked forward slowly. "Tomorrow is the end of the month and we will have a day off. Shall we leave the palace?" Upon hearing this, the Demon Queen was refreshed. She stood up suddenly, threw the scroll aside, and said with a smile, "Why wait until tomorrow? Let's go right away. This palace really makes me feel suffocated."

"Now?" Zhu Qizhen had never expected her to be so anxious.

The demon queen's beautiful eyes flickered, and she smiled and said, "That's right, we can also go to the night market. Anyway, we don't need to bring anything, and we have everything in the courtyard."

"Then I'll go back to the palace and change into casual clothes." Zhu Qizhen said.

He was about to turn around and leave, but the Queen held him back. She glared at him coquettishly and said, "I have clothes for you in my palace. Go and change them quickly."

Half an hour later, the two were already on the bustling streets of the capital. The lights were just coming on and the night was charming.

As night falls, lanterns gradually light up in the streets and alleys, like stars falling into the mortal world. The lights and moonlight shine on the bluestone slabs, lengthening the silhouettes of pedestrians.

On both sides of the street, various shops are bustling with the sounds of hawkers, children's laughter, and the occasional sound of stringed instruments.

On such a night, ordinary people's homes also seem particularly warm. Soft lights shine through the windows, reflecting the busy and happy figures in the house. Some families are sitting together, enjoying dinner, and laughter can be heard from the table from time to time; some families, young and old, are enjoying the cool in the yard, which is very comfortable.

Children chased and played in the alleys, holding all kinds of lanterns in their hands, their laughter was crisp and pleasant. Occasionally, one or two nocturnal birds flew across the sky, leaving behind a series of melodious chirps.

In this dimly lit area, the Demon Queen took the Pseudo-Emperor's arm and walked around. Her eyes were bright and sparkling: "The homes of ordinary people are what I yearn for."

"Don't be blindly yearning." The fake emperor said, "You haven't seen their messy other side."

The Queen pursed her red lips and sighed softly: "I am not unaware of their hardships. Now they are much better than before. They should thank you, Your Majesty the Emperor."

The false emperor was stunned.

In fact, he didn't know how to be a good emperor. He just traveled through time and space, so he decided to do something.

The demands are too low, they just want to have something to eat.

"I didn't do anything." The fake emperor smiled, "It's just that the people don't ask for much. In the future world, the people will live much better than this."

The Demon Queen's heart moved, and she raised her eyes: "The future? You don't know what the future will be like."

The pseudo-emperor smiled and pointed around, saying, "In the future, this will be the CBD, with tall buildings, and the capital will be an international metropolis."

"What are you talking about? How do you know?" asked the Queen of Demons.

"I was just kidding." Zhu Qizhen held her hand, "Come on, let's go back. It's time to rest. We'll come back tomorrow."

The Demon Queen stood next to him, her eyes drooping.

……

A small courtyard by the Gaoliang River.

Behind the screen in the room, there was steam.

The Queen of Demons stood in front of the bathtub. She raised her slender hand slightly, and her belt loosened immediately. Her white dress slowly slid down like morning mist, revealing her skin as delicate and smooth as cream. In the dim candlelight, it seemed to be shrouded in a layer of charming glow.

She covered her chest with one hand, her posture elegant, her feet quietly poking out from her long skirt, her skin white and tender, her steps like lotus, she slowly moved to the bathtub and lightly stepped into it. The warm water instantly wrapped her whole body, bringing incomparable comfort and pleasure.

"Are you done washing?" the fake emperor rushed in.

The demon queen panicked, shrank back into the water, and glared, "Don't come in, get out."

How could the fake emperor care? He walked straight behind her, stretched out his hand and pressed it on her shoulders, and smiled: "Let me massage your back."

"No need!" The Demon Queen trembled slightly.

Just then, the false emperor lowered his head and saw the tremor in front of her, which was breathtaking.

"Didn't you just say that you had a sore back? Let me massage it for you. Didn't you experience it last time? You even praised me." The fake emperor said as he started.

The demon queen bit her lip tightly, turned back and glared at him fiercely: "You can only rub my back."

"Okay!" The fake emperor responded with a smile, "Don't you know me yet?"

The Queen opened her red lips slightly, her eyes showing tenderness, her eyes interweaving with anger and shame, and she glared at the guy who annoyed and loved her. But the guy just rubbed her back gently, without any overstepping of the rules, and gradually, her tense heartstrings relaxed.

Suddenly, the false emperor raised his hands and lifted her shoulders, and she stood up. At that moment, the false emperor admired the perfect her in front of him, his eyes wide open.

"Close your eyes!" The Queen turned around lightly, trying to cover the false emperor's eyes with her slender hands. Her cheeks flushed with an intoxicating blush, and her voice was cold, but it was filled with shyness and eagerness that could not be concealed: "I have finished bathing, hand me the towel quickly!"

She is very ladylike.

Zhu Qizhen admired her beautiful figure while taking a bath towel and wrapping her tightly. The demon queen's eyes were blurred. She felt his hands playing tricks on her and could not help but reach out and push her gently. There was a hint of coquettishness in her nasal voice: "You go out first."

She tilted her head slightly and glanced at the bad guy in a charming way.

"Then I'll carry you out directly." Before the false emperor finished speaking, he had already carried her horizontally in his arms, walked out from behind the screen, and gently placed her on the soft couch. The demon queen blushed and quickly got into bed.

The fake emperor also got in and put his arms around her waist.

The Queen moaned twice, wrapped her fair arms around his neck, and offered him a sweet kiss.

For a long time, their lips parted.

"That's enough." The demon queen widened her eyes and said coquettishly, "Otherwise you can go sleep next door."

Upon hearing this, the false emperor stopped playing around and just hugged her gently, enjoying this rare tranquility and warmth.

"Go to sleep." He blew out the candle.

……

A cool breeze blew outside, and the fake emperor actually fell asleep. The demon queen leaning in his arms didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and snorted, "You really can sleep."

She also tried her best to calm down, closed her eyes, smelled his unique fragrance, and gradually fell asleep.

Before we knew it, the moon was rising in the courtyard.

The Demon Queen was sleeping in a daze, when suddenly she smelled a faint fishy smell. She opened her eyes and saw that the Pseudo-Emperor was still in her dream and seemed to be smiling. What sweet dream was she having?

She sniffed, reached under the quilt, and then her eyes widened.

There was a wet spot in the quilt.

"This bastard!" She was angry and amused.

She reached out and pinched his waist fiercely, and the fake emperor woke up immediately. She sat up and smiled playfully: "You had a sweet dream, right? What did you dream about?"

"I dreamed of you." The fake emperor blinked his big eyes.

"Bah, you rascal!" The demon queen glared, "I'll go sleep next door, you sleep here."

"Why?" The false emperor reached out to pull.

The Queen rolled her eyes, reached out and slapped away his mischievous hand, stood up gracefully, steadied the bath towel with both hands, turned around and got off the couch, a pair of even, jade-smooth legs falling down.

She tidied up her messy hair, glanced at the confused pseudo-emperor with cold eyes, and then walked out of the house with her long white legs.

Zhu Qizhen sniffed his nose, looked down, and felt numb.

Shit, did I just have a wet dream without leaving any trace?

……

early morning.

The false emperor got up early, feeling refreshed.

He was training in the yard, and when he was done, he went to cook porridge. Everything was fine, but the Demon Queen hadn't gotten up yet. He had no choice but to knock on the door, but it wasn't closed. He pushed it open and saw the Demon Queen was still sleeping.

"Get up!" he shouted into her ear.

The Demon Queen opened her eyes dazedly and waved her hands: "I want to sleep a little longer, don't bother me."

"We agreed to go shopping." The fake emperor reached out and pinched her cheek.

She widened her eyes and glared angrily, "Isn't it because of you? I didn't go to bed until the second half of the night, you go out, I'll go shopping after I wake up."

The fake emperor smiled and said, "So it's you who can't sleep. If you can't bear it, don't force it. Look at me, I'm strong and healthy, ready to sleep with you at any time."

The demon queen was amused and waved her hands in anger: "Get out!"

The fake emperor stopped teasing her and walked out. It was rare for him to have such a leisurely morning. After drinking his porridge, he sat down on a bamboo chair in the yard, reading a book with a pot of tea brewing beside him.

Cozy!

Damn it, from now on, I should just leave the government affairs to the cabinet and the Imperial Household Department, and I can just balance them. Why should I be so tired? Isn't it good for the country to live a comfortable life?
"Summers in this era aren't that hot." He looked at the morning sun.

He didn't know how long it had been, but as he was engrossed in reading a book, he heard footsteps behind him, and then smelled a faint fragrance, and two white arms wrapped around his neck.

The demon queen buried her head in his neck and said in a soft voice, "Husband, I'm hungry."

The fake emperor turned around, looked at her beautiful and charming face, and rolled his eyes: "If you are hungry, go to the kitchen and cook for yourself."

Biaji~
The demon queen kissed him domineeringly, and her voice became coquettish: "Help me cook, I am your wife."

"Huh~"

The fake emperor pointed at himself with contempt, "I am so young, and you, an older sister, have no shame. An old cow wants to eat young grass?"

clap clap clap!
The demon queen was so angry that she kept hitting him.

"Please pack up. I'll take you out to eat." Wei Di grabbed her hand and held her in his arms. "Chao Xiaotian told me there's a good restaurant. Let's go try it."

The Demon Queen leaned on his chest, seeming to be greedy for this feeling and didn't want to move at all.

The fake emperor held her face in his hands and said, "Why don't you go quickly? Otherwise, the whole day will be gone and we will have to go back to the palace tomorrow."
