Seven days later.

Looking down at the Diaoyu City below, Zou Buyi couldn't help but sigh: "I heard that this Diaoyu City was built by that Wang Li? ”

Yao Ruoyu knew that the dragon vein scholars called the spirit vein, and immediately said in surprise: "There is a spirit vein here?"

Nodding, Zou Buyi said with a smile: "Of course, except for a few places like heavenly burials, all places are dragon veins, but the dragon veins are strong and weak, your dragon veins here are not bad, they are connected to all directions, the source is endless, and they can naturally grow slowly, which is exactly in line with the trend of your Wenbang's development, and if you are not mistaken, it is estimated that there are still things below." ”

Yao Ruoyu frowned slightly when he heard this, but he didn't ask much, he patted the spirit crane under him, and the spirit crane called smartly, and then flew down with a flap of his wings.

As soon as the two of them descended, a pure white pillar of air suddenly rushed up in the center of the city, which was vast and masculine, full of majestic righteousness, but the pillar of air had just approached, and there was a sudden sound in the city, and then the pillar of air was quietly broken, and an elegant man flew up in the center of the city, it was Wang Li, the lord of Diaoyu City.

As soon as he flew closer, Wang Li had already bowed and said solemnly: "I don't know if the prince has returned, my subordinates have taken offense, and I ask you to atone for your sins." ”

"Those who don't know are not guilty!" Waving his hand, Yao Ruoyu looked around with interest and asked, "What is the matter that this king has left these days?"

Wang Li smiled when he heard this, and arched his hand: "Don't worry, there are no problems these days, hundreds of schools live and work in peace and contentment, and most of them praise the prince's benevolence." ”

Hehe, Yao Ruoyu pointed to his side and said with a smile: "Let me introduce you, this is my old friend, Zou Buyi, the heir of the contemporary Yin and Yang family, and I came here this time to take up the position of the chief bookkeeper of my Wen Palace." ”

Wang Li was shocked when he heard this, and hurriedly said: "I have heard that the Yin and Yang family is proficient in feng shui metaphysics, and I would like to ask for more guidance in the future." ”

Zou Buyi looked at Yao Ruoyu with white eyes, blaming him for having nothing to say about his inheritance, and at the same time hurriedly helped Wang Li, and said with a smile: "I have heard for a long time that the lord of Wang Cheng has a good way of governing the city, and now I see that the people live and work in peace and contentment, and enjoy peace, it is really worthy of its reputation." ”

"This is all thanks to several decrees of the prince, Wang Li is ashamed and dare not do it!" Wang Li smiled and said humbly.

Yao Ruoyu didn't have the heart to listen to them praising each other, waved his hand and said, "I'll take him to the palace first, tomorrow is the big court meeting, right?" ”

Wang Li seemed to have something to say when he heard this, but he just looked at Zou Buyi, but did not say anything, but made a bow, turned sideways and gave way to let Yao Ruoyu and Zou Buyi leave.

Yao Ruoyu didn't pay attention to Wang Li's demeanor, and drove the Linghe all the way, and soon came to the backyard of the palace.

As soon as he landed, Yao Ruoyu didn't have time to look around, a figure had already jumped out of the house, swirling around him several times like a ghost, and then turned into a slender and charming woman and jumped in Yao Ruoyu's arms, hooked his neck with both hands, and said angrily: "Do you still know how to come back?"

Holding Princess Wanyan Fuchan in his arms, Yao Ruo smiled foolishly: "Isn't this coming back?" As he spoke, he couldn't help but kiss the beautiful woman lightly on the forehead, and the latter suddenly blushed and quickly jumped out of his arms.

At this time, she saw Zou Buyi standing behind Yao Ruoyu, and immediately recovered her frosty complexion, and said coldly: "Who is this?"

"Oh, let me introduce, this is my old friend, Zou Buyi, who will serve as the chief secretary of the palace next," Yao Ruoyu looked back at Zou Buyi and said with a smile, "This is my fiancée, Hu Chan." Because there was no such thing as girlfriend in ancient times, Yao Ruoyu now says that Hu Chan is his fiancée.

Zou Buyi bowed when he heard this, and said with a smile: "I have seen the princess below." ”

Because there were outsiders, Wanyan Fuchan didn't stay long, and quietly looked at Yao Ruoyu, so she turned around and went back to the house, just looking at her steps, but it was obviously brisk, obviously in a very happy mood.

"Your fiancée has a very unique personality!" Zou Buyi chuckled.

Yao Ruoyu smiled: "I'll get used to it in the future." ”

Neither of them likes to talk politely, so after coming to the palace, Zou Buyi quickly took office and went to take over the affairs of the palace, and the news of Yao Ruoyu's return spread quickly.

And when they knew that Zou Buyi was Yao Ruoyu's old friend, everyone's expressions were a little strange, because this was the first time they saw Yao Ruoyu's friend in this world after they reunited, and with Yao Ruoyu's nepotistic character, he could be arranged by him as the head of the palace, and their relationship intimacy was obviously not low.

*——*——*——*

Early the next morning, Yao Ruoyu got up early, put on the vassal king's python robe under the costumes of the two maids, and came to the meeting hall at the main gate of the palace with Zou Buyi, who lived in the guest room last night.

The other officials had already arrived, Bai Junru, Bai Qiuyu, Duan Chun, Luo He and others were talking in groups of three or five in low voices everywhere, while Yang Renjie, Fu Feng, Han Yiqi and other generals gathered together, chattering and laughing loudly.

Seeing Yao Ruoyu appear, Bai Junru and others hurriedly came over to salute, Yao Ruoyu chatted a few words, and then walked into the council hall with everyone.

Zou Buyi naturally attracted a lot of attention, and some well-informed people also heard that the palace came to the master book yesterday, so it seems that most of them are the young man in front of him.

After sitting down in turn, Yao Ruoyu glanced at Chen Meng, who understood, stepped forward with a knife, and said loudly: "Today's court meeting begins, something will start, and nothing will be dispersed." ”

"Wechen has something to do," Duan Chun, the minister of the Ministry of Industry, stepped out and said, "Sanjiang City is nearing completion, but the internal military settings are deviating from the previous design, and it needs to be renegotiated." ”

Yao Ruoyu waved his hand and said indifferently: "You can just discuss this matter with Minister Xu and Duan Li, and there is no need to talk about it here." ”

Duan Chun retreated from the queue when he heard this, and then several officials came out one after another, and after all of them were processed, seeing that they didn't come out again, Yao Ruoyu smiled and said, "Since you have nothing to do, then this king will say a few things." ”

For a long time, Yao Ruoyu has a miraculous effect every time he announces the decree, so everyone cheered up after hearing the words and waited for the other party to announce the decree.

looked at everyone, Yao Ruoyu didn't bother Chen Meng this time, and said in person: "There are not many things, the first thing, from today onwards, Zou Buyi will be the head of my Wenwang Mansion, Buyi." ”

Zou Buyi had been standing in the corner of the council hall before, and only then did he step forward according to his words and said, "My subordinates are here." ”

Yao Ruoyu said lightly: "This is the new chief secretary of my palace, and he will also be the chief staff of the palace. ”

As soon as this remark came out, it undoubtedly determined Zou Buyi's status, and everyone knew that Yao Ruoyu seemed to be gentle, but in fact he was strong and stubborn, and this time he made an exception and did not let Chen Meng speak, but this King Wen personally announced it, which shows the status of this person in Yao Ruoyu's heart, so they all nodded yes.

None of the people here are simple-minded, anyway, they can naturally see the level of this Zou cloth in the future, if the ability is not enough, it is also shameful to occupy the position of the master book.

Motioning for Zou Buyi to step aside, Yao Ruoyu continued: "The second thing, how is the construction of Yitong City?"

Zou Buyi was the first to reply when he heard this: "It will be completed in about half a month." ”

Looking at him, Yao Ruo smiled foolishly, "How is the construction of the academy in the center of the city?"

Zou Buyi was not in a hurry, and replied calmly: "Because the prince told him earlier, the first thing to build is the academy, which has been completely built, and it is just waiting for the arrangement of the spirit master to engrave the spirit array." ”

Knowing that Zou Buyi must have learned all the relevant things yesterday, Yao Ruoyu did not continue to ask, but said: "Since the academy has been built, it can be officially opened on a certain date." ”

"The academy is not yet famous, and I ask the prince to give it a name. Zou Buyi said.

The name Yao Ruoyu had already thought of it, and immediately smiled: "Since it is in the city of Transfer, the name is also called Transfer, in addition to Confucian classics, it will also teach martial arts and spiritual methods, and all kinds of miscellaneous studies, so there is no need to call it a academy, call it a college, a transfer academy, everything that can be thought of, can be learned." ”

Yang Renjie, Fu Feng, Jiang Siyu, Li Yilin and others all became excited when they heard this, and they were as calm as Xu Xuanrong, Song Kai, and Fu Chaozan, and they couldn't help but show nostalgic eyes.

At the same time, Zou Buyi bowed his head lightly and asked: "The prince has arranged all kinds of matters in the academy before, but since it is open, there needs to be teachers and students, and this candidate is ...... arranged."

Yao Ruoyu replied: "Teacher, I will send special people, as for the students, select school-age children from my city-state to study in the college, from seven to fifteen years old, every family has school-age children, they need to come to study for free, if there is a lack of population to help with farm work, the city-state can pay for subsidies." ”

As soon as this remark came out, everyone was discolored, after absorbing the displaced people earlier, the number of the city-state has swelled to hundreds of thousands, some time ago, the Dali and Xixia tribes also moved to the rest of the clansmen, and now the number of people in the city-state has been as high as 420,000, if the school-age children in every family are counted, I am afraid that there will be at least 100,000.

Bai Qiuyu immediately stepped out of the ranks, and said solemnly: "Lord Wang, please take back your fate!" Weichen knows that education is the foundation, but now that the population of the city-state is swelling, if all school-age children go to study, and then the city-state subsidizes it, the cost is simply unbearable. ”

Several household officials also came out to dissuade them, but Yao Ruoyu didn't insist when he saw this, and muttered: "Then do you have any good suggestions?"

Xu Xuanrong said: "You can use the street as a unit, and each street can have as many places according to the number of households, and then draw lots among all households to get school places, so that you only need to control the number of places, and you can maintain the subsidy fee at an appropriate level." ”

"It's okay, just according to Minister Xu's suggestion," Yao Ruoyu nodded and said, "This matter needs to be carried out as soon as possible, and we must not slack off." ”

Bai Junru said with emotion: "The prince's move is a thousand years old, and the ministers are on behalf of the people of the city-state, thank you for the prince's great kindness!"

Scratching his head, Yao Ruoyu was about to say a few words of humility, his expression changed suddenly, and he jumped up involuntarily.

When everyone bent down to thank him before, he sensed a majestic momentum suddenly condensed out of thin air from outside the hall, and then surged towards him.

"Who dares to be presumptuous?!"

The abruptness of the general trend, Chen Meng and the others had no time to prevent it, Yao Ruoyu could only draw the sword in his hand, the sword soul was condensed, and he was bound to cut it out with a sword.

"Wait!"

"Slow down!"

Suddenly, the voices of Wang Li and Zou Buyi sounded one after another, Yao Ruoyu couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this, it was at this moment that the vast momentum had already hit Yao Ruoyu and hit Yao Ruoyu hard.

"Old demon!"

"Demon brother?"

"Lord Wang!"

Seeing this, everyone exclaimed in surprise, Yang Renjie, Fu Feng and others didn't care about the rules, and swept over one after another, but before they could get closer, a wave of righteousness had swept over and stopped them all.

Seeing that it was Wang Li who made a move, Yang Renjie was suddenly furious, and he was about to scold when his black face turned red.

But before he could scold, Song Kai had already stepped up quickly to stop him, and said in a low voice, "Wait." ”

Just when there was chaos in the hall, Zou Buyi suddenly laughed, and when everyone turned their heads to look, he flicked his sleeves and said: "Congratulations to the prince for gathering the hearts of the people, and in a few days I will be able to condense the spiritual rhyme." ”

"Lingyun?" Bai Qiuyu was stunned when he heard this, Bai Junru sensed it carefully for a moment, and immediately said happily: "It is indeed Lingyun! It is the Lingyun condensed by the hearts of the people in a place, congratulations to the prince, the prince's benevolent government is indeed a good strategy for the world!"

Seeing a group of civil officials all surprised and inexplicable, Yang Renjie, Jiang Siyu and others couldn't help but be puzzled for a while, Xu Xuanrong explained when he saw this: "Lingyun is the embodiment of people's hearts, all spiritual masters want to break through the five realms, they need to feel their own spiritual rhyme, and in addition to the spiritual rhyme condensed after the personal perception of the spiritual masters of the five realms, there is also a collective spiritual rhyme, that is, the people's heart." ”

Zou Buyi bowed his head lightly, and said: "This kind of people's cohesion of the spirit rhyme represents the thoughts of the local people, if the city lord is kind to the people, there is often good governance, the country and the people are safe, everyone lives and works in peace and contentment, after a long time, the people's sense of identity with the city lord will naturally form a spiritual rhyme." ”

"Oh, it's almost the military strength that our generals can gather after the Five Realms, right?" Fu Feng suddenly asked.

"That's right," Zou Buyi smiled and continued, "It's just that Lingyun is more demanding than the military, and the people need to really agree with the city lord, if Zou is not wrong, the previous decrees have won the hearts of the people, but because there is no spirit master to cast spells to excite, so he has never been saved." ”

"Then why ......" Ren Jiasheng just asked, and he nodded again and again in a sudden understanding.

Seeing this, Zou Buyi nodded with a smile, and turned his head to look at Bai Junru and the others, these people are all middle and high-level officials of the city-state, and it is they who have just bent down and bowed from the bottom of their hearts because of the free teaching, which has completely stimulated the hearts of the people who have been accumulated in the city-state for a long time, so they will condense the spiritual charm in an instant.

Of course, this is also indispensable to the handwriting of Zou Buyi, a feng shui master, otherwise, the spirit rhyme would not have condensed so quickly, and its strength and purity are even rarer in ancient times.

When everyone spoke, Yao Ruoyu had already felt the harmlessness of that spiritual rhyme, and as the spiritual rhyme submerged into his body, his spiritual spring was also churning wildly, with the increase of that spiritual rhyme, the spiritual power and the upper soul were constantly purified, but in a few breaths, its purity had more than doubled.

The body shook slightly, Yao Ruoyu slowly opened his eyes, and a little spiritual light in his eyes quietly flowed, at this moment, his cultivation had already broken through the bottleneck, with the accumulation of the Seven Saints Huiwu and the addition of this spiritual rhyme, he broke through two layers in one breath and broke through to the four realms and six realms.

It's just that this time because of the relationship with Immortal Aoki, his breakthrough did not lose too much vitality, which also made Yao Ruoyu, who had a careful experience, secretly happy.

Stabilizing his breath, Yao Ruoyu put the sword back into its sheath and said solemnly: "Since the matter has been decided, then everyone will retreat, remember one sentence, the hundred-year plan is important in education!"

"Obey the order!" immediately responded to the audience.

When the court meeting was over, everyone dispersed, Yao Ruoyu wanted to call Zou Buyi to go back together, but when he saw that he was talking to Xu Xuanrong, Song Kai, Bai Junru and others, he dispelled his thoughts, waved his hand, and turned around and wanted to go back to the palace.

But he didn't want Wang Li to suddenly paced over at this time, and said solemnly: "Lord Wang, my subordinates have something to report." ”

Seeing Wang Li's serious expression, Yao Ruoyu said that there was something important, so he bowed his head and said, "Come with me." ”

The two left the council hall and walked along the corridor for a while before arriving in the backyard.

Signaling Wang Li to be casual, Yao Ruoyu sat down first, and said with a smile: "What is there to do with the city lord Wang that needs to be explained in private?"

Looking left and right, Wang Li carefully sensed for a moment, and then said: "Lord Wang, don't blame, this matter is very important, and there is no room for subordinates to be careless." ”

Yao Ruoyu was also interested when he saw this, and asked curiously: "What is going on?"

After making sure that there was no one left and right, Wang Li immediately said in a low voice: "The reason why Wang Li insisted on building this Diaoyu City back then was not only to resist the invasion of the Jin Kingdom, but also for another reason. ”

Seeing Yao Ruoyu's curious expression, Wang Li didn't sell much guanzi, and said slowly: "There is a spiritual essence vein in Diaoyu Mountain. ”

"Spirit Essence Vein?" Yao Ruoyu frowned slightly, his expression changed greatly, and he got up in shock and said, "Spirit ...... Are you sure?" fortunately, he reacted quickly and did not shout out the words "Spirit Essence Vein" out loud.

Wang Li bowed his head and said: "My subordinates are sure, I have entered and seen it, but the prince can rest assured that when this city was built, the spiritual veins of this place have been covered, even if a feng shui master comes, he will not be able to discover the mystery inside." ”

Only then did Yao Ruoyu understand why Zou Buyi said that there was something hidden in the spiritual vein here when he first came yesterday, and he dared to feel that this was not an ordinary spiritual vein, but a spiritual vein.

The so-called spiritual veins are actually tributaries formed in the underground after the mixing of spiritual energy and luck, and the spiritual stones used by Yao Ruoyu and others in the past are the products of these spiritual veins after a long time and spiritual energy condensation.

And sometimes, because of the relationship between geology or local luck, the spiritual veins will also mutate, and what is condensed is no longer the spirit stone, but the spiritual essence.

Spirit stones can be used to arrange spirit arrays or perform spirit spells, in addition, spirit masters can also use spirit stones to practice, but there are too many spiritual energy impurities in spirit stones, which are harmful to practice. Of course, there are a few sects that have methods that can filter impurities, but most of them are general, and they can't completely filter impurities.

However, the spiritual essence is different, there is not a trace of impurities inside, it is condensed by pure spiritual energy, and the internal spiritual energy content far exceeds the same volume of spiritual stones, whether it is used for array, spell casting, and cultivation, it has a great gain effect.

Looking at Wang Li, Yao Ruoyu couldn't suppress the excitement in his heart, and couldn't help laughing out loud.

He has always been worried about the cultivation of the people in the Literature and Art Department, after all, only a few of them such as Yang Renjie have broken through to the Four Realms, and the others are still in the Three Realms, but there is no quick way to practice this kind of thing, even if there is, it is to do all the best to fish, and if you sacrifice the future to seek the present.

But now that he has the spiritual essence, it is very different, the spiritual energy in the spiritual essence is pure and flawless, coupled with the suppression effect of the Tongyuan Palace, he can resolve the disadvantages of advancing too quickly, so that at most, in three years, he will be sure that everyone will reach all the five realms.

Overlord Thunder Knife, Western Liao Secret Legend, Peerless Sword Sect, the inheritance obtained by everyone is a rare top exercise, such a group of people divide the four cities, not to mention expansion, it is enough to protect themselves.

In this way, even if they die because of trickery in the future, they are not afraid that their lives will be in danger.

Thinking of this, Yao Ruoyu suddenly smiled calmly.
