Chapter 895 Two Empress Guangxu
Qin An slowly opened his eyes when a ray of sunlight shone from the outside onto the bed.
At this moment, Lan Yue and Liu Xia were both asleep and snuggled up to Qin An like a kitten. Their faces were red and their bodies had all kinds of traces left behind by last night's madness.
The pleasure of a man and woman's bed is always the best medicine for adjusting marriage.
Qin An knew that since then, Lan Yue and Liu Xia would no longer be so hostile.
Unable to fall asleep and not wanting to disturb his wives' clear dreams, Qin An lay there with his eyes closed, thinking about something.
Liu Xia and Lan Yue did not wake up until after nine o'clock in the morning. After breakfast, the three bid farewell to Liu Jun and the others and entered Hawkeye City of Lu Haichuan on the high-speed rail.
Hawkeye City had a population of about three million. The city walls, which were fifty meters tall on average, surrounded the territory in a square shape. The 100,000 regular troops of the Hawkeye Legion were in charge of defending the entire city wall.
The exit of the high-speed railway station is located at the north gate of the Hawkeye Group. From the north gate, there is a busy trading area on the city wall.
This trading area was originally the Qin Shang City near Qin City, but now that they had moved here, it was still the largest trading market in the entire Qin Alliance.
Liu Xia and Lan Yue had been embarrassed to talk to each other since they woke up in the morning. After all, they were too crazy in bed last night, making them somewhat shy.
Seeing the dazzling variety of goods, the two women became excited. They put down the shame in their hearts and began to walk around shopping side by side, completely putting Qin An aside.
"In the past, I would occasionally visit the City of Qin Shang. Now, the trading market in Hawkeye City seems to be even more lively than the City of Qin Shang!"
"Naturally, because Hawkeye City's geographical location is in Jiulong Mountain, the distance from the seven cities of Qin Alliance is close, so if you want to get some rare items will come here! This item exchange market was actually a black market. Businessmen could sell and exchange all kinds of items, even human flesh! Sigh, there's no other way. After the apocalypse, many customs are different from before. It's very difficult for a unified system to be implemented in different cities. That's why this black market appeared. It has accumulated a lot of wealth for Hawkeye City over the years. "Lu Haichuan has gone farther and farther away from us. Normally, he doesn't have any contact with us at all. He only sends his subordinates to meet Guo Shuai to report on some matters."
Hearing Lan Yue's words, Qin An asked, "Are there any powerful abilities in Hawkeye City?"
Lan Yue nodded and said,
"Lu Haichuan's wife, Chu Xianghua, and his brother-in-law, Chu Qitian! These two siblings appeared 15 years ago. After Chu Xianghua married Lu Haichuan, Lu Haichuan's Hawkeye Legion could be considered to have real strength.
Chu Qitian had once killed a nightmare-level slayer, Silver Shadow.
Silver Shadow was a relatively famous slaughterer. He had extremely fast movement speed, and his appearance was like a giant mantis. The silver saber that his hands had evolved into was five meters long. It had the power to pierce through mountains, and its hardness was extremely terrifying.
In the eighteenth year of the apocalypse, the Silver Shadow was named by Zangxi, and more than a thousand people died at its hands since then.
Zangxi had sent a hero squad to kill Silver Shadow many times, but they failed in the end.
Twenty years after the apocalypse, Silver Shadow appeared on the main streets of Hawkeye City and killed indiscriminately. When Chu Qitian arrived, he used a giant hammer to smash Silver Shadow's two-handed saber and smashed its body into pieces. From then on, it became famous in the battle!
It is said that Chu Xianghua's sister is stronger than his younger brother Chu Qitian! "
Qin An was speechless. He instantly killed a nightmare-level slayer with a single hammer?
"What kind of special ability is he?"
"Guo Shuai had sent people to check, but did not find out the news. Chu Xianghua basically didn't make a move, but Chu Qitian always killed the enemy with a single hammer. No matter how strong the opponent's defense was or how fast he moved, he was unable to dodge or defend against his hammer. Guo Shuai was also unable to detect his mutation level, but this was normal. Many mutants now liked to hide their mutation identities, so they would take all kinds of drugs to invalidate the multi-colored stone rings. He shouldn't be the owner of the Sword God either. Guo Shuai couldn't feel the power of the Sword God on his body, but Guo Shuai said that his source of power might be related to the Sword God!
Qin An frowned slightly. Could it be that Chu Qitian was a believer of one of the nine Master Gods? A person like a ghost whisperer, a heavenly whisperer, or a devil whisperer?
It seemed that the problems of the seven cities of Qin Alliance weren't that simple.
It was around eleven o'clock at noon. Although the market was still bustling with activity, the number of people was relatively small.
Qin An did not become a woman this time, but he had never been interviewed by the media, and the media organizations in Hawkeye City deliberately did not want Qin An to become the topic of public discussion, so no one recognized him when Qin An walked in the crowd as the head of Qin Alliance.
Do you want to see Lu Haichuan directly?
Qin An was a little conflicted, because judging from Lu Haichuan's performance, he was obviously not willing to come into contact with him.
Back then, Lu Haichuan was somewhat taciturn. As the leader of the Fate City Material Search Team, he could be considered an action faction.
Hearing Guo Shuai say that in the past few years since he left, Lu Haichuan had been very supportive of him at the beginning, but ever since he moved to Hawkeye City, he seemed to have changed as if he was a different person.
Qin An felt the same way. It had been several months since he returned to Qin City, and Lu Haichuan had only appeared once when he had just returned, not even attending his wedding. This had already fully demonstrated his attitude. They did not want to give up Hawkeye City's military management power at all.
How can a house sweep the world without sweeping it? If you want to bustle the outside world, you must first settle inside!
If Lu Haichuan really refused to compromise, would he have to use some tough methods?
"Little girl, look, that cheongsam is so beautiful!"
"Mm, yes, big sister Lan Yue, let's go take a look!"
The two women's harmonious and joyful voices entered Qin An's ears, and when Qin An heard them, he smiled faintly.
The woman's mind was indeed unfathomable.
In any case, it was still early, so Qin An let the two women wander around and planned to look for Lu Haichuan at dinner time.
Moreover, Qin An was also waiting for someone. It was Su Zi's online, Li Kuilan, number 36, the Shepherd. Hearing Su Ya say that she was Lu Haichuan's concubine, she should have brought him some news, right?
"Why can't I buy it? It's not like we can't afford it!" Liu Xia's voice had a trace of displeasure.
"That's right! The seven cities of the Qin Alliance have a currency unification agreement! Our gold coins are worth enough to buy these two cheongsam. If you don't accept them, I'll report them to the officials!" Lan Yue's voice was overbearing.
Qin An followed behind the two women and looked forward. He saw that the clothing shop owner opposite Lan Yue and Liu Xia was an extremely old looking old man.
He was really old, his skin had already wrinkled and dried up, and there didn't seem to be any flesh beneath his skin!
Frowning slightly, Qin An stepped forward to stand side by side with the two women and asked, "What's going on?"
Liu Xia pouted and said, "We saw that the cheongsam he sold on the stall was very beautiful. He wanted to ask him to buy it, but he didn't sell it!"
Qin An looked sideways at the old man's stall. He mainly sold underwear and underwear. However, on the wall behind the stall, there were two sets of extremely old but exquisite cheongsam!
These two cheongsam had tiger-patterned fur on their necks and cuffs. One of them was big yellow with the Nine Phoenix Soaring Cloud Diagram embroidered on it; The other one was orange-red, with eight dragon patterns embroidered on it!
Qin An frowned even more tightly and whispered to the skinny old man,
"These two clothes are really rare styles, they should not be cheongsam right?
As far as I know, Cheongsam was only named in the Republic of China, and the style of these two clothes seems to be from the Guangxu period!
Back then, the East and West Palaces Empress Dowagers hung down their curtains and listened to the government, and Empress Dowager Donggong Ci'an's clothes were often embroidered with the Nine Phoenix And Empress Dowager Xigong Cixi's clothes were embroidered with eight dragon patterns!
Old sir, although these two clothes of yours look brand-new, they have three layers inside and outside. The outer layer is brand-new, the middle layer is rotten, and the inner layer is thick. Obviously, they are renovated antiques!
In 1908, Emperor Guangxu died. Cixi chose Puyi, who was three years old, as her new emperor. She was now the Empress Dowager. The next day, she passed away in Yiluan Palace and was buried in Dingdong Mausoleum in Putuoyu. When she entered the coffin, she wore eight dragon-patterned robes. Empress Dowager Donggong Ci'an explosively collapsed in Zhong Zi Palace in 1881. The cause of her death became a mystery and was buried in Puxiang Valley's Dingdong Mausoleum. When she entered the palace, she seemed to be wearing the Nine Phoenix Soaring Cloud Robe!
Old sir, it's already 2040 A.D. And you actually brought an antique from a hundred years ago to Hawkeye City in the twenty-fifth year after the apocalypse. It's truly amazing to me.
"Let's just say, who exactly are you?"
Liu Xia and Lan Yue were stunned. They really didn't know that Qin An was so knowledgeable that they could easily see through the origins of the two sets of clothes.
The reason Qin An knew this was because he had once crossed over to a young man whose father was a historian. There were many historical pictures and books in his family. Qin An had read some of them, and it was about the two emperors of Guangxu and Guangxu.
The skinny old man had been squinting his eyes as if he was about to fall asleep. When he heard Qin An's voice, he suddenly opened his eyes. A cold glint shot out of his eyes. When he looked at Qin An, Qin An's body unconsciously trembled!
The energy contained in this old man's body was extremely powerful. It was actually impossible to determine whether this energy belonged to Sword God Force Qin'an or not!
After glancing at Qin An, the cold light in the old man's eyes disappeared and quickly dimmed. He coughed lightly twice and said,
"This stall is selling underwear underwear, these two expensive robes are not for sale, so can't sell!
Sigh, the grade is too old, you will be sleepy when you say something, and you will be tired when you use your brain slightly.
"Guests, it's better to go to other stalls. I don't want business to flourish right now. I only want to have a bite to eat, so I won't earn the money of the three distinguished guests!"
As he spoke, he closed his eyes again, as if he had fallen asleep!
