"Xue'er, that little girl, has said that in the future, my name will be remembered in the annals of history, and my name will be left behind for years to come. It's impossible to rely on these little things."
"Hehe, sir, is it delicious? Want another bite?"
"As for the inner elixirs at the Hedao level? This... there are still quite a few among Zhu Xia. Lord Shui, do you have any strange beasts that you don't like? Those at the same level as you are the best."
Food, sex, sex!
Confucian scholars have said that this is human nature, and they just make better use of it.
Listening to the young master's praise for the ice cream, Yan Ling ignored the last sentence. He had learned everything he had learned, but he still hadn't understood it yet!
No rush.
There is plenty of time next.
Immediately, with a sweet smile, he took another spoonful and handed it over. If he had to say that he had the inner elixir of healing, he didn't necessarily have it.
If you look for it, you can still find it.
For example, with a flash of beautiful eyes, they landed on the water statue next to him who was lying on the ground and taking a nap. His appearance was that of a horse.
Even though the horse is much taller and more handsome than the ordinary horse, it is also much lazier. It eats a lot of food and drinks a lot of wine all day long.
That is to say, the Governor's Mansion. If it had been anyone else in the Xia Dynasty, they would all have suffered a loss.
His gaze fell over and directly met the big eyes of Shui Zun who seemed to be alert at the moment.
"No!"
"No!"
Facing this human's gaze, Shui Zun instinctively trembled. Although he was stronger than him, Xuan Qingzi was stronger.
In a real fight, he is no match for Xuan Qingzi.
Naturally, it wasn't this female human being's fault.
Inner elixir at the level of Hedao?
This woman really dares to think that an inner elixir at the level of Hedao requires the sacrifice of life by a top-level alien beast of the same level as her own.
I also listened to Xuan Qingzi's words just now. Even though I had been sleeping on my stomach,... there was always a spiritual feeling left.
Lay out a formation that can kill the Hedao level?
The inner elixir needed is by no means one or two, but many.
Is this woman drawing attention to herself?
Don't say that you don't have any kindred beasts that you don't like. Even if you do, you can't say. Who knows what the outcome will be. Maybe your kindred spirits will really suffer.
"Really not?"
Watching the young master take another bite, Yan Lingji was even more pleased, but she was not satisfied with the response of the water master, how could it not be.
There must be.
But Shui Zun didn't want to say it.
"No!"
"No!"
Shui Zun responded quickly and affirmatively, his mind moved into the sky, his tall horse figure stood up from the ground, and walked towards the distance.
I don't want to stay here, and I don't know what is going to happen.
"Stop thinking about it."
"Since ancient times, there have been fewer and fewer alien beasts, and those powerful alien beasts have become even rarer."
"Inner elixirs at the level of Hedao are already rare to find in Shushan."
The taste of ice cream is almost the same as the one deep in my memory. It's even more of a mixture of all kinds of energy.
I have to admit that Yan Ling is a poor person in terms of cultivation. He may have added the wrong talent points, but... it is not without gain.
In the process of innovating ingredients one after another, I have a wonderful understanding of the qi of all things, mixed with the magic field of heaven, and exerted it, making it even more powerful.
"I think there are quite a few of them."
"The four spirits of heaven and earth combined...the number should be enough."
When it comes to the foundation of Tianmo Sect, Yan Ling is very concerned about it. No matter what, it must have a stable foundation, and a powerful formation is indispensable.
A strange beast at the level of Hedao?
There are only a handful of them, and the quantity is definitely enough.
"Did the Four Spirits of Heaven and Earth offend you?"
"Look at Xiaomeng, looking at you."
Four spirits of heaven and earth!
Yan Ling really dares to think... In terms of cultivation level, now I have the confidence to deal with any of the Four Spirits of Heaven and Earth.
Even if people stay at home well and don't make any mistakes, what are they doing to kill people? It's just to eat enough.
As he spoke, a cyan figure walked in from a distance, holding a little guy in his arms. This scene was rare.
Ning'er was honest at the moment and stayed quietly in Xiaomeng's arms. Zhou Qing had reason to think that it was because of Xiaomeng's calm aura.
Peace and tranquility, happiness and anger.
Although Ning'er no longer cries, but... there is no laughter anymore.
However, given Xiaomeng's temperament, she would be very happy to see Ning'er like this, quietly in her arms, enjoying a moment of intimacy.
"The four spirits of heaven and earth!"
"Humph, if it weren't for the protection of the ancient stars for thousands of years, they would have been in trouble long ago."
"The slave family feels that someone may try to take advantage of them without the slave family taking action next. This is what... Young Master, you said that the head of Guizhou is not guilty, but the one with the treasure in his possession is guilty!"
"The four spirits of heaven and earth are all treasures. By the way, I seem to have read in a book that taking the essence and blood of the colorful phoenix can prolong life."
"Also, taking the essence and blood of Qinglong can also prolong life."
"Ning'er, come..., have some ice cream!"
The Four Spirits of Heaven and Earth did not provoke themselves, but... rather than someone causing trouble for them in the future, it would be better to take advantage of the Heavenly Demon Sect now.
Following the young master's gaze, Xiao Meng approached with an honest Ning'er in his arms. Yan Ling smiled, dug out some ice cream, and handed over the silver spoon.
"It's too cold."
"Not fit for consumption."
Xiao Meng glanced at Yan Ling, her spiritual awareness moved in the air, and an invisible force turned into a small cyan spoon, scooping up a little ice cream, and the essence was contained in it.
fell into Ning'er's mouth.
I have eaten this myself and it is very delicious.
It's just that Ning'er is still young and not in strong physical condition, so she is not suitable for direct entrance.
"hey-hey!"
"That's right, sir."
"You said that in the land of pagodas and peacocks, are there any exotic beasts at the level of harmony? There should be some, right?"
"How about we have a chance to take a look in the future and kill some by the way?"
"The slave family doesn't like those people from Pagoda."
"Xiao Meng, give it!"
Since the Four Spirits of Heaven and Earth are not ready to take action, then... Qin An, another thing came to mind, it should be feasible.
As he spoke, he took out a bowl of ice cream from the sachet on his waist and handed it to Xiaomeng. He had prepared a lot.
Enough to eat along the way.
"Protect the sect formation!"
"Without the inner elixir at the Hedao level, I am confident that I can use the power of heaven and earth to stir up the mountains, rivers and ground, and arrange a formation that is enough to make ordinary entrances difficult."
"Sure enough, if we really set up a formation capable of killing the Hedao level, it won't be of much use."
"For thousands of years in the Xia Dynasty, powerful cities were often the first to collapse from within, and then the city was successfully broken open."
"Even if the city's defense is average, as long as the people in the city work together, then... they can have a strong defense."
"There is no need to worry about the inner alchemy. I can't say that I will gain anything from this trip to Kunlun."
"Or maybe you will gain something from overseas fairy mountains in the future. The place where the Fusang Sacred Tree grows must be an extraordinary place, and there must be powerful and strange beasts."
Whether a sect is strong or not does not depend on the formations used to protect the sect. For example, the two sects of Taoism, Heaven and Man, have almost no formations to protect the sect, but they are famous among hundreds of schools of thought.
For example, the Mohist Mechanic City, which took hundreds of years to build, was originally the Mohist's last line of defense. Ideally... it could resist all external intrusions.
What's the result?
Overnight, the city collapsed.
That's proof.
Watching the glass bowl sinking and floating beside Xiaomeng, a green spoon kept digging, and the small ice cream balls entered the entrance one by one, causing Ning'er in her arms to reach out.
Finally, after Xiaomeng took seven or eight bites in a row, a little bit fell into the little guy's mouth. Suddenly, the little guy enjoyed the sweetness and his little face was very happy.
"Too!"
"Kunlun definitely has powerful Hedao beasts. If it doesn't work, a beast of Dabai's level will do!"
"Immortal mountains overseas are definitely indispensable."
Yan Lingji nodded. As expected, it was impossible to arrange a formation that could suppress the Hedao level, so it was not impossible to settle for the next best thing.
Young Master also said that there is still a chance.
"Son."
"Everything is almost ready."
"This is a gift list for Xianyang Palace. Can you take a look?"
With Ning'er in Xiaomeng's arms, Xue'er was free, wearing a simple and elegant ice-blue dress, with the silver texture of ice crystal snowflakes looming on it. Under the scorching sun, the movement and stillness were shining in a different way.
The light white boots made her look even more graceful and graceful. She held a roll of black cloth and spoke slowly about the arrangements in front of her.
This time I went to Xianyang and brought a lot of things with me.
"It's up to you to decide."
"Mrs. Li has given birth to a son and a princess. It would be nice to prepare more."
Zhou Qing doesn't have much control over those things. If he's interested, he'll take a look. Even if he ignores them, Xue'er and the others are doing a good job.
"Young master, some things were delivered to you a few days ago, but this time it happened to be on the way."
"Ning'er, is the ice cream delicious?"
Xue'er nodded softly. This gift list has been reviewed by them again and again. It is appropriate both in terms of etiquette and portion.
Mentioning something, he teased Ning'er with interest. This little guy stayed with him longer than he stayed with Xiaomeng.
He is still very close to me.
"Eaaah!"
The little guy started talking again in unintelligible words.
"Then take it with you."
"Yunshu, have everything been arranged in the mansion?"
Over at Tianming, indeed, something would arrive every once in a while and be asked to be transferred to Xianyang Palace by the Governor's Mansion.
Something that happens easily.
Guanyunshu and Nongyu also approached and asked lightly.
"Everything has been arranged. We can leave in half an hour."
Yun Shu was teasing Ying'er in Nong Yu's arms, but Sister Yan Ling was too lazy now.
"Um."
"Ying'er, come and see your mother. Don't imitate her when you grow up. She's just a salted fish!"
Zhou Qing held it with both hands, and the next moment, Ying'er was hugging Nong Yu's arms and kissed the little guy's nose.
Then he pointed at someone next to him who was eating ice cream.
"whee!"
"Yinger, come here, try my ice cream."
Yan Lingji hummed softly, and dug a little with the silver spoon. The power of the flames blended together, and the sweet taste flowed into her mouth, and her little tongue couldn't help tasting it.
"We have already sent out manpower. By the time we arrive in Xianyang, Zong Qiong should have everything in place in the house."
Nong Yu said something.
"That will be Ning'er's residence from now on, right?"
Yan Lingji looked at the little guy in Xiaomeng's arms.
"uncertain!"
"His Majesty the First Emperor is building a new palace south of the Wei River. It is much larger than Xianyang in terms of scale and luxury."
"Xianyang may not be the imperial capital in the future."
Bai Qianhong came from a distance holding Ling'er in her arms. Listening to Yan Ling's words, she responded slowly.
"It seems there is such a thing."
"Sure enough, if the capital is moved in the future, Ning'er will naturally have a new residence in Xianyang."
Ning'er is the eldest son of the young master.
Coupled with the reward from His Majesty the First Emperor, directly to the Lord of Changnan, and Chang'an County, the place of food, no accident, it will be the royal bloodline that the young master left in Xianyang in the future.
As for the accident?
This should not appear.
Xue'er teased Ning'er and heard what Sister Qianhong said. The young master also said that he was already exploring the specific address.
Next, a new palace will be built.
The establishment of the empire has been a grand event for the ages. Although Xianyang is good, it is an old palace city and is not enough to show the prosperity of the empire. When I returned to Xianyang, it was already very crowded.
This is still the Xianyang City that has been expanded several times. If it was the Xianyang built under the supervision of Lord Shang at the beginning, it would be too small.
"Is the Xinchao Palace famous?"
Yan Lingji felt that Bai Qianhong had been bullying her because she didn't read enough books, so she couldn't be proud of herself.
This matter... I also heard the young master say it, but I didn't think of it for a moment. If there is a new imperial palace, Ning'er will naturally not stay in Xianyang.
"None yet!"
"Building a new imperial palace will take a long time and require a large amount of people's power. It is a bit difficult for the empire to do everything at the same time."
Zhou Qing shook his head. Over the course of time, the construction of the New Dynasty Palace stopped after part of it.
This time... it should be able to be built.
But the difficulties are not small. The land in Guanzhong, Chidao, the Great Wall, and the Lishan Mausoleum all require hundreds of thousands or millions of people.
Coupled with the new imperial palace, there are definitely one to two million people.
With a civilian strength of one or two million, it was only more than ten years ago that the whole country in Guanzhong fought against Zheng Guoqu, and there was such a movement. Now... it is difficult to happen.
In particular, the next step to deal with the Xiongnu is that if a large army is used, it will also require six figures of civilian power.
"What's so difficult about this? Let's see how the Nu family can ask Mr. Fusu to arrest all the peasant disciples in Sishui County and send them all to Guanzhong."
"In this way, the people's power will not be lost, and the farmers can claim to have hundreds of thousands of disciples."
"It's definitely enough."
"If Mr. Fusu can handle this matter well, His Majesty the First Emperor will definitely be satisfied. Who knows... a big deal will be done."
"Sir, what do you think?"
Yan Lingji suddenly felt her thoughts surge, and her idea was completely feasible.
Young Master has said before that reading a lot of books does not necessarily mean you are smart. Being smart has nothing to do with reading. Confucians are all scholars, and few can catch their eyes.
I am the kind of person who, although I have read very little, is extremely smart.
You can think of this idea!
"..."
"It's a very good idea, and it's feasible. If you don't want to be the governor of Sishui County, you won't be able to do it."
Zhou Qing raised his hand and knocked Yan Ling on the head.
What have you been thinking about all day?
“The slave family thinks it’s great!”
"The location of Xianyang Palace... From the Nu family's perspective, Mr. Fusu is still not smart enough. As long as His Majesty the First Emperor is satisfied, everything will be easy."
"What are you thinking about?"
Yan Lingji snorted again, covering her head with her little hands and mumbling.
"As you said, the counties will be in chaos."
"Satisfying His Majesty can indeed bring a lot of benefits, but... that position is not that simple!"
What the empire now wants is the stability of the counties, not chaos and disorder. If Yan Ling's strategy is adopted, there will be no people in Sishui County.
If Your Majesty is satisfied, more people will definitely be kidnapped from Surabaya County and sent to Guanzhong to build a new palace.
As for His Majesty being able to get that position if he is satisfied and happy, that is the case for some kings, but His Majesty is obviously not like that.
"..."
"I thought it was very simple."
Yan Lingji took a big mouthful of ice cream.
"If many things were really that simple, Zhu Xia wouldn't have so many disputes."
Zhou Qing smiled and teased Ying'er in his arms. Compared with many things in the world, spiritual practice is probably the simplest and most straightforward thing.
"..."
"..."
A group of people were chatting and laughing in front of the house, and time flowed by.
An hour later, it was a little later than expected, but it didn't matter. The grand procession of vehicles left in front of the Governor's Palace in an orderly manner and rushed towards Xianyang in a mighty manner.
