Chapter 612 (1/2)

After the two little eunuchs said goodbye to Marquis Wu, they hurried back to the palace. At this time, the emperor was entertaining the prince of Horqin tribe. The two sides were discussing whether to form an alliance on the elimination of the Hu people.

The autumn tiger is still terrible. In addition, both sides stick to their own words, so the debate is a little fierce. Coupled with the hot weather, they all feel angry and dry.

Drinking tea can't alleviate this feeling. Fortunately, big watermelon appeared soon.

”Barbara, try the fruit of my dynasty. It's hot. Let's talk while eating.” the emperor said proudly.

”Oh, I didn't expect that you really have fertile soil here. You can grow such a big melon.”

Barbara, Prince of Horqin tribe with yellow hair, blue eyes and high nose, didn't expect that the watermelon here was so big. They are short of water, so they can't grow such good-looking fruit at all.

Although the negotiation just now made him feel very uncomfortable, when he saw the little eunuch cutting watermelon with a watermelon knife, he immediately forgot his previous unhappiness.

As soon as the tip of the knife touched the green striped watermelon skin, it heard a ”click”, and the watermelon cracked directly. Then the whole imperial study was filled with the fragrance of watermelon. Some people brought broken ice and put the cut watermelon meat on the ice.

”Oh, well, well, thank you for your hospitality,” Barbara said, rolling up his sleeves and reaching for it.

The emperor warned, ”Barbara, you can't eat it yet. After a while, the watermelon will become cold and taste more delicious.”

”No, no, I think it's good like this,” he said, and no matter how much, he just ate.

With this mouthful of watermelon, he immediately felt comfortable from his mouth to his tongue and then to the whole esophagus. It's like a long dry field is moistened by rain and dew. You can't stop eating one mouthful after another.

The emperor was also a little anxious. He also wanted to eat it. However, if the watermelon cooled down, it would be almost eaten by the guy with a big nose.

What should I do? No matter how much, who is hot knows. He also directly inserted a piece of watermelon from the fruit tray with a bamboo stick to eat. They looked at each other as if they were competing who ate more.

Fortunately, we are not in the court now, otherwise we will make the civil and military ministers laugh to death!

After eating a round belly, Barbara leaned back and leaned back on the chair. He burped comfortably, touched his stomach with his hand, and his face was full of pride.

”Your Majesty, I have considered it. According to the conditions you said before, it is not impossible. But I have one condition. I hope your Majesty must consider it carefully.” Barbara said solemnly.

”Oh? Why did you agree so soon? Well, tell me what the conditions are. As long as they are not too excessive, I will consider them carefully.” the emperor said with a smile.

Barbara then said, ”you know it's arid there, and there's no such delicious food to eat. So I hope you can reach an agreement with us to sell your fruits to us. Moreover, you can't raise the price, but you must follow your local price.”

”Oh? Are you really sure? But it's a long way. You have to send someone to transport it yourself.”
