Being a tour guide for historical celebrities, the motherland is amazed again

Chapter 238 Am I that kind of person? I was clearly enjoying the flowers

"What? They ran away, how can you do your job?" King Wu was furious and slammed the table and stood up.

Jiang Taigong was stunned at first, then he closed his eyes, sighed, and looked desperate.

"Alas, Brother Wang, why did you abandon me and run away at this critical moment?"

It’s really hard to explain what happened after a few people ran away.

"What's wrong with you? Have you been drinking?" King Wu of Zhou noticed that the jailer's face was red and he smelled strongly of alcohol.

"Please forgive me, my king. This wine was brought by the spies. I drank two sips and passed out."

Only then did King Wu of Zhou discover that the jailer was holding a transparent, slender bottle with half a bottle of clear liquid in it.

"What is that, hand it over?"

"My lord, this is the wine the spies brought."

The jailer handed the wine bottle to King Wu of Zhou with both hands. King Wu of Zhou took the bottle, looked at it carefully, and sniffed the bottle mouth. He felt a strong smell of alcohol rushing into his head.

"How come those people have such novel things?"

"Your Majesty, this is the wine from later times, and this bottle is also the craftsmanship of later times." Jiang Taigong said hurriedly.

Since several people left something behind, the time travel can be explained.

"Oh? It seems that the group of people really have extraordinary origins." King Wu of Zhou looked at the glass bottle in his hand, half believing and half doubting.

Suddenly, another attendant entered the side hall.

"Your Majesty, there are eight people outside the palace seeking to see you."

"Eight people?" Jiang Taigong immediately stood up and said, "Your Majesty, perhaps these are my friends who have returned. I beg Your Majesty to see them."

"Bring it in."

Su Jiahe and his group lined up and entered the side hall, still wearing the uniforms of jailers.

"Even though you are all women, children, the elderly and the young, you do have some skills and can escape from the dungeon of the palace." King Wu of Zhou chuckled.

"Of course, I told you, we are from later generations." Wang Mang said, and rushed towards King Wu of Zhou, holding the Time Document in one hand and holding King Wu of Zhou's sleeve with the other.

"Your Majesty, be careful of assassins." A guard holding a bronze halberd immediately stepped forward and stopped Wang Mang.

"Brother Wang, what are you doing? Don't be rude." Jiang Taigong was also shocked.

"Your Majesty, since you don't believe us, I will take you to the afterlife to see for yourself," said Wang Mang.

"Oh? Do you really have such ability? Okay, let me see what the future will be like." King Wu of Zhou looked at Wang Mang's confident look and became curious, so he signaled the guards to withdraw.

"Okay, my king, please watch carefully and don't blink."

King Wu of Zhou only felt that the surrounding scenery flashed for a moment, and in the blink of an eye, he arrived in an unfamiliar place.

"Hey, I'm back again." Jiang Ziya found himself standing in the living room of Su Jiahe's villa.

"Where is this?" King Wu of Zhou was startled and looked around the unfamiliar environment vigilantly.

"Your Majesty, this is Miss Su's home, and it is also the world three thousand years later." Jiang Ziya said.

Accompanied by a group of people, King Wu of Zhou walked out of the villa gate, took a walk around the community, and saw with his own eyes the things that Jiang Taigong had mentioned, such as "high-rise buildings", "cars", and "cement roads".

"Zi Ya, you really traveled to the afterlife." King Wu of Zhou was so surprised that he couldn't close his mouth all the way.

"Your Majesty, I have never lied to you. My friends are indeed people from later generations. They followed me back to Xiqi because they wanted to assist Your Majesty together with me." Jiang Taigong said from the side.

"Alas, I misunderstood you just now. Please forgive me." King Wu of Zhou quickly bowed his head and apologized. "I am grateful to everyone for your help."

"Hmph, you locked us up in the dungeon and still want us to help you. My old cold legs are still hurting." Wang Mang bent down and rubbed his knees.

"Brother Wang, I am sorry for my negligence and have offended you." King Wu of Zhou apologized repeatedly.

"Now that the misunderstanding has been resolved, let's go back." Su Jiahe activated the Time Document, and the group returned to the palace.

"Your Majesty, you're finally back! We've been looking for you all day!" A servant ran up, sweating profusely. "Eh? I was only gone for a short while."

"I forgot to mention that the speed of time flowing on both sides is different. One day in the future is one year here." Wang Mang said casually.

"I see. However, the afterlife is truly marvelous. Can I take my subjects and family to see it?"

"We can only take ten people at a time, and we already have ten people. Anyone else who wants to go is welcome to join us, just get in line."

"It's so troublesome. Let's talk about it later." King Wu of Zhou waved his hand and ordered his attendants to arrange the best palace for Su Jiahe and his party.

"What kind of people are they? They locked us up without any reason. We shouldn't come back." Wang Mang sat on the mat with an angry look on his face.

"Brother Wang, you forgot that our time-travel mission has not been completed yet." Su Jiahe said.

"If we don't complete it, then don't complete it. If we go to rescue King Zhou, we will be arrested as spies." Wang Mang crossed his arms and turned his head to the side.

"But if you fail to complete this mission, the time you can travel through time will be shortened to two thousand years. Don't you want to see the ancient world?"

"Just shorten it. At worst, I can just restart the dungeon." Wang Mang was still angry.

“Don’t forget, two thousand years ago was the Eastern Han Dynasty, and you might still have to meet Liu Xiu.”

"Ah? Forget it, let's think of a way to complete this mission." Wang Mang, who was still angry just now, immediately became obedient.

The next morning, a row of palace servants came to the gate of the palace.

"What... are you doing?" Wang Mang got up and opened the door. He was shocked to see so many people, thinking they were here to arrest him again.

"We are here to serve you all at the king's command," the leading palace servant said humbly.

"Oh, so that's it," Wang Mang breathed a sigh of relief. "We don't need so many people to wait on us. Thank you all for your hard work. Now go back."

"The king has ordered, and we dare not disobey." The leading palace servant stepped forward.

"Okay then, you guys come in first."

The palace servants were very hardworking. As soon as they entered the palace, they each did their job. Some cleaned the courtyard, while others chopped wood and made a fire.

"Well, it seems that King Wu of Zhou still has some sincerity. I forgive him." Wang Mang was sitting in the yard, staring at a little palace maid who was watering flowers.

"Brother Wang, you are not attracted to her, are you?" Su Jiahe said half-jokingly.

"Nonsense, she's only in her teens. Am I that kind of person? I was clearly admiring the flowers." Wang Mang immediately widened his eyes and looked away.

"My lord, please have some water." Another palace maid came over with a kettle and filled Wang Mang's cup with hot water.

This palace maid was older, probably in her forties, but she was very quick and efficient, her hair was neatly combed, and her eyes and brows revealed her intelligence and competence.

"You've worked hard, you've worked hard." Wang Mang smiled at the palace maid. "By the way, what's your name?"

"This servant is Qiuzhi."

"Qiuzhi, what a nice name. It's not easy for you to still be working in the palace at such an old age. You should rest now, you don't need to keep refilling my water."

"This is my duty. I have been in the palace for over twenty years, and all these palace maids were trained by me. If you need anything, please just tell me," Qiu Zhi said meekly.

"No, no, you've worked all day, have a taste of this snack."

……

Wang Mang and Qiu Zhi chatted back and forth, while Daji, sitting next to Su Jiahe, coughed a few times meaningfully.

"Sister Su, does Brother Wang have something on his mind?"

"Maybe, he seems to like Aunt Qiuzhi's type." He Shuangqing's gossip spirit was also ignited.

After everyone had lunch, King Wu of Zhou arrived at the temporary palace.

"Your Majesty, what brings you here this time?" Having been imprisoned in the dungeon before, Wang Mang was still instinctively wary of King Wu of Zhou.

"Gentlemen, I am about to lead my troops to attack Chaoge and seize the Central Plains. Are you all willing to come with me? If not, you may stay in Xiqi."
