Chapter 281: The Secret Realm Of Yunmeng, Integrity And Diligence
In the blink of an eye a month.
Everyone in the mansion left one by one, making the huge Zhong Mansion suddenly deserted.
The rest, such as Yuan Ziyi, Yu Qingyao, Jiang Ping, Dongcao, etc., are also busy with their own affairs.
In the early stage of the family's development, all aspects had to be considered, and the time for monks in the mansion to practice was greatly reduced.
Fortunately, now that there is a spiritual vein, the spiritual energy is more intense, coupled with the abundance of spiritual stones and elixir, compared to other Independent Cultivator, it will not lag behind.
And for this situation, the happiest person is Li Jingqiu.
She and Xiao Xuening took a good job, responsible for the education of the children in the house, and they were relatively free.
In this way, leaving so many sisters at once will undoubtedly allow her to spend more time and time with her husband.
Autumn is getting stronger and the breeze is blowing.
Li Jingqiu, who was carefully dressed in a light blue palace dress, walked briskly into the courtyard.
"Sister Sandao!"
"Jing Qiu!"
Yan Sandao stopped his vigorous swordsmanship and wiped the sweat from his brow, "Are you looking for your husband? I went out early in the morning."
Li Jingqiu smiled and said, "Come and see sister Xiaohuan, I haven't seen her for a long time!"
"She's been in the training room all day."
Jiang Huan is very diligent. Except for the dual practice in class, he spends almost all the rest of his time on practice. He has reached the second floor of the Foundation Building in the case of "limit critical".
"Then don't bother her."
Li Jingqiu smiled, went to the weapon rack and took the long sword, "Sister Sandao, I will practice with you."
"OK!"
When the sun went down, Zhong Yan didn't come back, so Li Jingqiu had to go back first and supervise the children's evening classes.
outer courtyard.
Zhong Yan returned from Fangshi and went to the study of Yizhongyuan.
Zhong Xiaozhong entered right after him, and handed over an animal skin bag: "Master, it's a package from the Immortal Master Donglai."
Zhong Yan tore open the talisman, lifted the restriction, a letter, and thirty high-level communication talismans.
The number of previous talismans was exhausted, so I had to buy a new one and imprint it on it, and let the other party imprint it on it and send it back.
After reading the letter, Zhong Yan's eyes flickered for a moment, and he cast a spell to send the message.
After waiting for a while, Huo Donglai's laughter came: "Brother!"
"Congratulations, you have both sons and daughters!"
"Thank you, brother! Brother, are you going?"
"Is the news true?"
"It's absolutely true, what my father-in-law said, let me go back as soon as possible. The First Elder and Second Elder have all been dispatched. At present, the secret realm has not been fully opened. There is only a big crack, but the spiritual energy is surging, and the rays of the sun are gushing. Judging by the movement, it is estimated that The secret space will not be small... the news has not yet spread, only the northern forces rushed to it."
The secret realm appeared in Yunmeng Swamp, and the First Elder and Second Elder of the Fire Cloud Sect Gold Core stage all came out, obviously it was no small matter.
While Zhong Yan pondered, Huo Donglai continued: "The location is to the south of the entrance, just past the central area, so it should be no problem with the strength of the elder brother. The birth of a new secret realm must have a lot of elixir and mineral deposits, which is exactly what the elder brother develops the family. need……"
"Okay, let me think about it and let you know before I go."
After chatting for a while, Zhong Yan frowned and thought after finishing the message.
There is no doubt that the birth of the secret realm is a great opportunity for the entire cultivation world of Yan Kingdom. If the secret realm space is large enough, the strength of many forces can be greatly improved.
It's just that, for the current Zhong Mansion, if you go there, you can only drink some soup, maybe you won't be allowed to enter for a long time at the beginning.
"Let's see what happens..."
Zhong Yan thought to himself, Qingyang still needs him to sit in charge for a while, so it's not appropriate to stay away too early.
Zhong Xiaoshun, who had stopped for a long time, observed his expression, saw his brows relaxed, and handed him another stack of thick paper.
"Master, this is Xia Xinzhu's information from Qi Rui from the capital."
Zhong Yan nodded and said with a smile, "I forgot about her."
The information collected is very detailed.
For example, the birth of Xia Xinzhu.
His biological mother was a concubine, and she and the fourth prince's concubine's biological mother were cousins. Obviously, this was one of the important reasons why Xia Xinzhu became the fourth prince.
Another example is self-cultivation, starting to practice martial arts at the age of seven, entering Houtian at the age of ten, cultivating immortals and entering Qi Refining at the age of eleven, and joining Chiyangzong at the age of twelve...
Looking at it, Zhong Yan blinked and said in surprise: "She was also a county magistrate."
Zhong Xiaozhong: "Yes, at the age of eighteen, he was born in the clan and practiced. He served as the county magistrate of Qihao County for three years. His political achievements are not bad, and the people under his rule support him. It is a good story that this matter spread to the capital... After leaving the Chiyangzong, he went to the Wei Kingdom to fight, and established She returned to the capital after being wounded, and then came to our Qingyang as the city lord, she is quite outstanding among the many royal children."
Zhong Yan nodded, feeling a little moved in her heart. Many incidents, large and small, were recorded in the data. After a careful study, there was nothing behind her determination to "caring for the world and benefiting the common people". A prince with great power.
"It's a bit like a woman in the new era, but it's a pity in today's world..."
Zhong Yan shook her head. Some of her ideas coincided with Li Lin's ideas. She knocked on the table and thought for a moment, then raised her head and asked, "What has she been up to lately?"
Zhong Xiaozhong's face was a little strange, and he said: "All kinds of ordinary public affairs, city defense, northern suburban school grounds, inner city security, agricultural harvests under her jurisdiction, etc., even intervening in market fights, doing everything by herself, at least she has no time to practice. "
Zhong Yan couldn't help laughing, "Qingyang has a population of several million, and she thought it was a separate town and village?"
How do you feel a little cute!
After laughing for a while, Zhong Yan turned to ask: "How is the Fuyang Arsenal?"
Zhong Xiaozhong: "In progress, the first batch of weapons is expected to be put into testing by the end of the year. Madam Ten has already started raising funds to train military horses. At present, more than 600 people have been assembled, with different qualities. This matter will take time..."
Zhong Yan nodded, Zhou Yuning was well versed in military affairs and had also led soldiers in battle, so it was not a big problem.
Not long after, a servant girl's call came from outside: "Master!"
Zhong Xiaozhong went out quickly, then returned, and handed over a letter: "Master, the Changning Shen family wrote back."
Zhong Yan took it apart and looked a little surprised, Shen Wuli went out to experience and has not returned yet, how many years has it been?
Originally, he wanted to bring up the old story again, marrying Shen Wuli, marrying Shen Wuli, and gaining a weapon refining skill and many assistants.
After controlling Qingyang, the most important thing is to be able to defend it. A large number of troops is essential, and it must be supplemented with powerful standard weapons, and standard weapons can only be refined by monks and craftsmen.
"It seems that there are not many female refiners, so let's take it easy..."
late at night.
After dealing with the affairs, Zhong Yan left the mansion again, with a ethereal figure, disappeared into the darkness, and flew towards the East District.
Under the numerous guards and patrols, they quietly sneaked into the City Lord's Mansion, the City Lord's residence.
The main hall is very spacious, the decoration is majestic, and the copper and gold beams and pillars can't be surrounded by two people.
In the middle is a meeting hall, with a side hall and study on the left, and a sleeping room on the right. It is divided into three rooms, the lounge, the practice room, and the women's boudoir.
Zhong Yan took a closer look and found that the overall look is luxurious, but the actual interior is too simple.
For example, there are nine compartments on one side of the closet, but nothing is placed there. There is only one ordinary vase with flowers on the wall counter, and the place where the porcelain should be placed to look harmonious and beautiful is empty.
This reminded him of the information description, most likely it was Xia Xinzhu who sold all these precious decorations to help the poor people in disaster relief.
She has done this more than once to help the poor out of her own pocket.
Zhong Yan was bored, hid himself in nothingness, watched and walked towards the study.
There are books and books piled up like a mountain on the large desk, including historical chronicles, memorials, and local documents of various places in Qingyang...
Just pick up a book, there are annotations in Juanxiu's handwriting on it.
You can know the whole leopard from a glimpse.
Zhong Yan sighed in his heart: He is indeed a good official!
At least clean and diligent.
He is in Qingyang, and he has heard some news personally. The first thing Xia Xinzhu did when he came to Ren Qingyang was to build a school to provide a learning environment for poor children, and he built a "wish hall" in the west district to collect Homeless orphans.
However, in the city, the reputation of this new city lord is mixed.
There are those who say 'love the people like children', and more who say 'faint and incompetent'.
In fact, compared to Qin Ben's reign, Qingyang is indeed much more chaotic now.
The common people don't care if you have more people or more monks in the city, they only care about their personal experience, especially the middle and upper class.
Some things, intentional, inappropriate, may not be done well.
Change takes time.
