Viscount Chitra's Mansion.
In the back garden, there is a gauze hanging on one side of the lawn.
In the gauze, Seldot, with a lazy look on his face, is half lying sideways on the long imperial concubine sofa.
This Constantine's mistress knows how to enjoy it.
Life, she held a red wine glass in one hand while watching two strong slaves having sex on the lawn.
The fight was fierce.
The fight between these two strong slaves was fist to fist.
The two of them did not hold back at all.
It was almost like they were on the battlefield.
Both sides were beaten with bruises and faces, and one was beaten to the point of vomiting.
He was bleeding, but Seldot had no intention of stopping.
The fight between these two people made Seldot very satisfied.
There were two groups fighting before, but the fight was so soft that Seldot couldn't lift her spirits at all.
She thought they were just fooling her, so she was They called the guards over and dragged them down and beat them half to death.
Following the example of the previous four slaves who were beaten half to death, these two slaves did not dare to fool Serdot anymore and beat them to death every time they struck.
The fight between the two slaves was going on at its most exciting and intense point.
A middle-aged man who looked like a butler walked over quickly and bent down beside Seldot to report: "Madam, there is something wrong with that batch of goods."
Seldot didn't pay attention and asked casually without moving his eyes: "What's the problem?"
The steward said: "Tramtz sold the goods to Qin's Trading Company in West Qin.
The delivery was completed yesterday, and now the goods have been shipped to Qin's Trading Company's warehouse."
"What?"
Seldot screamed.
She didn't even care about the constant fighting between the two slaves.
She jumped up from the imperial concubine's sofa and shouted to the housekeeper: "Didn't I let you stare at the whole batch?"
The goods have been transported to other people's warehouses for a whole day and you just came to tell me now."
The housekeeper was so frightened that he immediately knelt down and said: "The villain didn't expect that we had already spread the news.
There are still people who dare to risk offending Madam to trade with Tramtz.
It's all the villain's fault.
Please punish Madam."
The housekeeper is also an old and shrewd person.
He knows that he can only admit his mistakes at this time.
He knows the temper of the hostess very well.
The more you quibble, the angrier she will be, and the consequences will be serious.
If you admit your mistakes generously, If you are a bachelor, she will actually appreciate your courage to admit your mistakes.
Moreover, in his words just now, he shifted the main conflict to the Western Qin Qin's Trading Company that bought the batch of goods.
As expected, Seldot's attention was diverted, and her face turned cold: "Qin's Trading Company in Western Qin is so brave.
They even dared to make plans for this batch of goods that I was interested in, and they didn't give me any face.
They thought This is Western Qin, is this their territory?
Well, since they If they dare to fight with me in the ring, I will accompany them to the end.
I will make them unable to escape.
I will make officials and soldiers from various government agencies in Constantinople look for trouble with them every day.
I will let them put them in trouble.
This batch of goods cannot be sold or shipped if they are rotten in the warehouse.”
The housekeeper immediately expressed his loyalty: "Madam, the problem with that batch of goods was caused by my fault.
Please let me serve Madam this time and handle this matter.

I will definitely make them regret offending Madam."
A middle-aged lady next to him hesitated and said: "Madam, should you be more cautious about this matter?
After all, the other party is a businessman from the Western Qin Kingdom, and Qin's Trading Company is also a very prestigious trading firm in the Western Qin Kingdom, with a very strong backing.
What if things get too big and don’t end well?”
Serdot was a little impatient and waved his hand: "In recent years, the merchants of the Western Qin Dynasty have become more and more arrogant in Constantinople.
They are always competing for business with our local merchants.
They demand privileges at every turn.
If something goes wrong, they will There was a lot of trouble, but when our merchants went to Western Qin, they were investigated everywhere.
Qin needs to deal with more than a dozen approval documents when he comes back from buying goods.
He has to deal with more than a dozen government agencies and is fined at every turn.
I can't bear this tone this time.
I just want to teach them a lesson.
Butler, go ahead.
Let’s do it.
If you have anything, please report it to me in time.”
"Yes, little man, go right away" It didn't take long for Serdot's steward to visit officials in several government offices in Constantinople one by one, and to express in a subtle way Serdot's dissatisfaction with the Western Qin Qin's Trading Company.
Knowing that Cerdot was the emperor's mistress, Empress Maria was imprisoned a few days ago The prisoners were killed, and maybe this Seldot would soon become the new queen.
Although she was a widow, the possibility of marrying her as the new queen because of Emperor Constantine's urine was very high.
If you don't buy into the future queen's account at this time, you can imagine what kind of revenge you will receive in the future.
Only one day later, several government offices in Constantinople City sent law enforcement officers to the Qin's Commercial Bank office for various reasons to perform official duties, making it impossible for everyone in the Qin's Commercial Bank office to do anything and be enthusiastic.
Welcome the stern-faced public servants with a smile.
These government agencies include the Sheriff's Department, the City Guards Prohibited Articles Inspection Division, the Commercial Inspection Department under the Secretary of Commerce, and a series of other departments.
These official violent agencies came one after another, causing chaos in the Qin's Commercial Bank office.
There were complaints.
Qin Zipeng reported to Zhao Ziliang: "If this continues, our business in Constantinople will have to close down."
Zhao Ziliang put down his weapon, took a towel to wipe away the sweat and asked: "What do you think is the reason why these yamen come to take care of you one after another?"
Qin Zipeng said: "I think there is no other reason besides the batch of goods we purchased from Tramtz.
I received news yesterday afternoon that someone has let out the news in Constantinople and no one is allowed to sell goods.
Give it to us.
Today we can’t buy supplies even with money.
We only bought half of the batch of supplies Tramz entrusted us to purchase.
No one dares to sell to us anymore.
As you expected, this should be a local businessman with a big banker running the business.
Other businessmen are looking at this person's face.
We have robbed this person's business.
Now Retaliation is coming.
If we don't find a way, our office will be forcibly closed by the relevant yamen in a few days."
Zhao Ziliang walked to the stone table with a towel and sat down and said: "Since they are using official power to attack us, if we want to solve this matter, we can only use official power to respond.
You first send someone to find out who is this person behind it."
This shopping mall is like a battlefield.
Only by knowing yourself and the enemy can you win every battle."
Qin Zipeng agreed: "I understand, I will send someone to inquire immediately."
After a day of inquiring and almost breaking his leg, Qin Zipeng spent a large sum of money to finally find out that the banker behind the scenes turned out to be Emperor Constantine's mistress Serdot.
"Who is Serdot and what is his background?"
Zhao Ziliang asked after hearing the report.

Qin Zipeng replied: "Serdot is Viscount Chitra, and his husband is Viscount Chitra.
He died in the war with our country.
She inherited her husband's title, so she has a lot of hatred for our country, and this woman On Constantinople She is well-connected in the upper class society, and many male nobles and high-ranking officials are willing to be her servants.
Two years ago, she hooked up with Constantine and became his mistress.
Their relationship has become an open secret.
Junshi Everyone in the castle knows about it."
Zhao Ziliang touched his chin, "So most people can't do anything to her."
"Yes, now it seems that the only option is to use diplomatic channels and ask the envoy Liu Chongwen to come forward to negotiate with the relevant yamen of the Eastern Roman Empire.
Moreover, I am afraid that the officials of the Eastern Roman Empire will not dare to offend her.
Many people speculate that she is future queen" Zhao Ziliang said: "Then let Liu Chongwen come forward and try it first."
Qin Zipeng actually didn't have much hope for this.
He said worriedly: "I'm not worried that the Eastern Roman Empire officials will ignore the envoy Mr.
Liu's representations.
I'm worried that they will resort to procrastination.
If they agree on the surface, they will actually The officials below keep delaying it, which will cause trouble for us.
Think about it, these yamen come to our door every day now, and everyone who dares to do business with us will avoid them.
I'm afraid it won't be a few days before our business door opens.
It’s just a crowded place.”
"Let's try it first.
If it doesn't work, we'll find another way."
"Yes," Qin Zipeng said, bowing his hands and retreating.
As soon as Qin Zipeng left, a voice came from the distance: "Oh, the tea smells so good."
Zhao Ziliang turned his head and looked at it, and said with a smile: "How has the Taoist priest gained from this retreat?"
Taoist Master Qingsong came over and sat down opposite Zhao Ziliang, picked up the tea that Zhao Ziliang poured for him, and said with a smile: "You have gained a little bit, I don't know how many days have passed since Pindao retreat."
Zhao Ziliang said: "Almost half a month has passed."
"It turns out that it's been so long.
There's really no time to practice," Taoist Master Qingsong couldn't help but sigh.
Zhao Ziliang remembered something, "By the way, we may set off to continue our westward march in a few days.
Since the Taoist priest's fortune has soared, we might as well discuss the plan for this trip."
"Okay."
Taoist Qingsong was not modest, so he closed his eyes and began to calculate.
After a while, he opened his eyes and a few wrinkles appeared on his forehead.
Zhao Ziliang asked: "Why is it not going well?"
Taoist Master Qingsong was about to speak when he saw a woman walking across from him.
His expression suddenly froze and he murmured to himself: "Big breasts are a bad sign."
Zhao Ziliang saw Qingsong's expression and turned to follow his gaze, only to see Princess Greilin of the Avar Khanate walking over with her long legs exposed, her belly button dangled, and there were two murder weapons on it.
Swinging, so unattractive.
"Ahem, old Taoist, that's enough.
You are also a true cultivator, why are you acting like Brother Pig?"
Zhao Ziliang couldn't help but remind him.
Taoist priest Qingsong came back to his senses and said awkwardly: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, this barbarian girl is so eye-catching, haha."
Zhao Ziliang turned to look at Graylin and asked, "Princess Graylin, it seems that you are recovering well."
Graylin stood still and said: "Thank you, Brother Wang, I am much better.
I want to return to the Avar Khanate as soon as possible.
I don't know when you will set off."

Zhao Ziliang comforted him: "Don't worry, Your Highness, we are setting off in the next few days.
You will come with us when the time comes, and there will be someone to take care of you on the way."
"Really?
That's great.
I have always heard that Constantinople is very lively and prosperous.
It is one of the largest cities in the world.
I have been locked in a cage by them for so long since I came here.
I have never had a good look at it.
Look at this city, can you accompany me for a walk?"
Taoist priest Qingsong said with a smile: "Just in time, the old Taoist also wants to go for a walk in the city, why don't we go together?"
Zhao Ziliang couldn't help but glare at Qingsong, and scolded this old guy for his lack of eyesight.
A beautiful woman is asking me, why are you joining in the fun:
