In the imperial study, the emperor was reviewing the folds, and the little eunuch outside came to report: "Your Majesty, Commander Sun has something important to report." ”

"Xuan." Emperor Jianchang did not raise his head.

Sun Jing walked in and was about to salute, when Emperor Jianchang waved his hand, "Excuse me, what is the important matter of Commander Sun?" ”

"Your Majesty, there is a young man outside the palace who claims to be the crown prince-"

"What?" Emperor Jianchang stood up all of a sudden, and was about to walk out, took a few steps and turned back, and instructed Sun Jingdao; "Go and bring the people!"

In a few days, the news that the prince would not die and that he was no longer a fool had spread all over the capital and beyond, and all parties were shaken.

Time flies, time flies, and it has been three spring and autumn in a blink of an eye.

Today's Ziyun Village is no longer what it used to be, and a road leading to the town has been built outside the village, which is wide enough to accommodate three horse-drawn carriages in parallel.

There is a large stone standing at the entrance of the village, which is engraved with three big characters of "Ziyun Village" with a very deep pen force, the dragon flies and the phoenix dances, the momentum is extraordinary, ordinary people will only feel that this word is very extraordinary when they see it, but if they see it by a person who practices martial arts, they can experience a chilling sword qi from it.

Obviously, these three words were engraved with a sword by a man with extraordinary swordsmanship.

Walk through the boulder, only ten zhang away, you can see a high archway, the archway is made of marble, engraved with auspicious cloud patterns, the plaque is also written with "Ziyun Village" three big characters.

Walking under the archway, it is considered to have officially entered Ziyun Village.

Today's Ziyun Village is as big as seven or eight in terms of area alone, and it is no less than a town.

And because now the purple pottery is all out of Ziyun Village, the world-famous Ziquan Distillery is also located here, and the village has attracted countless vendors and shops, all of whom have settled here to set up shops, and there are endless exchanges.

Ziyun Village is still a village on the surface, but it is comparable to a medium-sized town in terms of population area and prosperity.

This is only the result of three years of development, and if it continues to develop according to this momentum, Ziyun Village will sooner or later become a prosperous city.

The large and small streets and alleys are intricate, but they are also neat and orderly, and the Ziyun Street, which is five or six zhang wide at the entrance of the village, is the main road in the village, leading to the end of the village. In the middle, an equally wide street runs through it, which is called "Da Tung Street".

The two main thoroughfares, Ziyun Street and Dadong Street, are like a cross, dividing Ziyun Village into four areas, each of which extends to many other streets and alleys.

The two large blocks in the southeast of the village are mainly all kinds of shops, wine shops, teahouses, inns, hotels, everything, cloth village restaurants, rouge shops, ready-to-wear shops, etc., and there are many small stalls and vendors, selling steamed buns, dumplings, noodle soup, braised tea, sweet cakes, meat cakes, stinky tofu, sugar gourds, kebabs, and so on.

To the west is a gathering place for pottery kilns and wineries, which are famous all over the world for this purple spring wine, and the purple pottery containing the purple spring wine is also rising with the tide, and the supply exceeds the demand.

Since then, every household in Ziyun Village has taken pottery burning as a business, and life has been getting better. Now every family is very rich, and they are no longer as poor as they were three years ago, and they can only make a living by hunting and selling firewood.

In order to thank the benefactor for leading the villagers out of the predicament and living a good life that they could not have imagined in the past, the villagers spontaneously built a life-size white jade statue in the ancestral hall of the village.

It was Jiang Rong who transformed into the appearance of a thousand illusions in the night.

And the villagers will come here from time to time to worship, and they will also come here to pray to their benefactors when they encounter major events or problems.

This custom gradually spread, and even foreign merchants came here to worship and pray.

As a result, a force of faith gradually condensed on the white jade statue, acting on Jiang Rong herself, making her gain more and more merit value day by day.

On the north side of the village, most of the original villagers' residences remain, and many of the houses have retained their original appearance, and there are many newly built blue brick and large tiled houses.

The old and the new are intertwined, yet extremely harmoniously compatible with each other.

Jiang Rong maintained the appearance of a thousand illusions in the night, and walked leisurely on the quiet street with his hands in his hands.

The ginkgo biloba in the courtyards of people on both sides of the road sticks out of its branches and leaves, sprinkling mottled shadows on the ground. On the wall are green curtain-like honeysuckle leaves, and the breeze blows, sending a burst of pure fragrance.

In the corner of the courtyard wall of some people's houses, there is a huge purple pottery water tank, which is full of rainwater, and a few emerald green lotus leaves stand in the middle, which is quiet and beautiful.

Children gathered under the big locust tree beside the road to play, kneading the mud, the purple soil was kneaded into various shapes, pigs, ducks, cows and sheep, cups, plates and dishes, vivid.

Jiang Rong approached, and a sharp-eyed child saw it, and immediately threw away the mud in his hand, and rushed towards her, shouting "Brother Night".

Jiang Rong lifted the person up, pretending to be disgusted: "You are so dirty, you dare to come to me?" ”

Wangfu knew that she said this on purpose, so he didn't think it was a pestle, and laughed and wiped his little muddy hands on her.

The two frolicked for a while, and the others also came over and asked Jiang Rong for candy.

Jiang Rong touched his sleeve and stretched out his hand into a fist in front of the children, "Guess what's the smell of this time?" I guessed it before I ate it. ”

"Sesame flavor!"

"Peachy!"

"Tangerine!"

……

The children chattered and scrambled, but they guessed the flavor they liked.

Jiang Rong spread out her hand, and there was a thumb-sized candy wrapped in candy paper lying inside, which was sesame-flavored, she handed the candy to the child who guessed correctly, and asked them to continue to guess, who guessed correctly to eat the candy.

In the end, there was no one who didn't guess, and they all ate the candy they had in mind, and they couldn't help but rejoice.

Jiang Rong finally got out and left, and returned to a big mansion at the end of the village.

This mansion is called "Night House", it was built two years ago, covers a large area, has a unique scenery, and has many mechanism formations set up in it, which can be described as an iron bucket, water cannot be splashed, and fire cannot be burned.

It was the people of Luo Tianmen who lived inside.

No one could have imagined that Luo Tianmen was located in a village, neither a prosperous town nor a treasure land of immortal mountains.

After three years of operation and development, the number of Luo Tianmen's people has reached three hundred, and this is only the most core member, with her living here.

In addition to the sect, there are also inner disciples and outer disciples, but most of them have been assigned by Jiang Rong, or to carry out tasks, or to experience, or to establish rudders in various places.

Cunning rabbit three holes, eggs can't all be put in one basket, right? Therefore, in addition to the night house here is the headquarters of Luo Tianmen, there are also a number of branches in other parts of Kyushu.

It is not only convenient to develop the power and radiate the influence of Luo Tianmen with the branch as the center, but also to provide a place for the disciples who are outside to stay.

The children who were taken in first were all successful, especially Wu Tiandong, a young man who was found to have a natural sword bone at the beginning, and now he can be regarded as the leader of the younger generation of disciples.

At the same time, Luo Tianmen also developed a large number of supernumerary personnel to help run the business in the sect and provide resources and other things for the disciples in the sect to cultivate.

It can be said that today's Luotianmen is in full swing.

Just in order to go further and more steadily, Jiang Rong has not yet exposed Luo Tianmen to the eyes of the world, but is patiently waiting for an opportunity, an opportunity for Luo Tianmen to better face the world.

On weekdays, Jiang Rong, the sect master, did not detain those disciples who were still young, but asked them to have more contact with the crowd in addition to cultivation, but they were not allowed to reveal their identities.

The cultivation of human feelings is the article, and what Jiang Rong wants to cultivate is not a nerd who can only read and practice martial arts, but a character who understands the world and does things.

In this way, when you go out in the future, you will not be full of stupidity, and you will only shout what to do for the people and do the right thing for heaven.

Therefore, the people in the village are no strangers to Luo Tianmen's disciples, and they will greet each other when they meet, and the children can also play with them.

Jiang Rongcai cleaned his hands, and an ordinary gray-black bird outside the window flew and landed on the windowsill, cooing at her.

She wiped her hands and walked over and recited a poem to the birds: "Dapeng rises with the wind one day." ”

What is surprising is that the next moment the bird actually spat out a sentence and replied, "Soar up to 90,000 miles." ”

Then the beak opened and spit out a wax pill.

Can wax pills still hide in the belly of a bird? If it is a real bird, of course, it can't be, but the one in front of Jiang Rong is not a real bird, but a trap bird.

Bai Buyi is quite interested in the affairs of the Fa Agency, and he often studies it himself, but there is no systematic guidance and perfect inheritance of this thing, and no matter how talented he is, he can't achieve much.

However, with books such as "Mechanism Technique", "Puppet of Skillful Craftsmanship", and "Detailed Explanation of Organs" provided by Jiang Rong, the situation is completely different.

In the past few years, Bai Buyi has really researched several things that are quite good, and this messenger bird is one of them.

The appearance of the bird is ordinary and ordinary, it is made of imitation of the shape of the common gray finch in nature, but its speed is not comparable to that of ordinary gray finches, and it can fly thousands of miles a day.

Even if Luo Tianmen's address was located in this relatively remote Ziyun Village, with this organ bird transmission, Jiang Rong's order could be quickly issued to everyone under the door.

The news collected from all over the world can also reach her in the shortest possible time, so that she can keep abreast of the big and small things happening in various parts of Kyushu.

It is also because of this organ bird that Luo Tianmen's intelligence network has been laid very completely.

It's just that it's not easy to make trap birds, and the total number of trap birds in the gate now is only two palms.

Otherwise, the intelligence area is to catch up with and surpass the Thousand Feather Pavilion, which is known for selling news.

Jiang Rong crushed the wax pill, picked out a note hidden in it, and unfolded it, but it was blank.

Not surprised, she turned and put the note on the lit candle, and burned it for a moment, on which a few lines of small words appeared.

The words on the paper are written from alum water, and they are only revealed when they meet fire.

This character is not the common font of the Great Qi Dynasty, but the simplified Chinese character taught by Jiang Rong to the people in the door, which is far from the font similar to the small seal in the world.

Outsiders will definitely not understand it.

The note is no more than the width of a person's finger, but it says a lot.

It's about a grand event in the rivers and lakes a month later - a big competition of sects. The location is Qingzhou Qixia Mountain Luoxia Villa.

ps: I finally wrote that we Jiang Rong have grown up, and I look forward to her interaction with Xiao Jue...... (To be continued.) )
