Among the 360 squares in Chonghua City, Wenhua Fang occupies a large area, and the mansion of Chonghua Hall occupies nearly 10% of the area of Wenhua Fang, and the halls of the remaining 19 states are equally divided into the rest of the lots, and the luxury of Chonghua Hall can be imagined.

There are dozens of courtyards in the hall, and each one of them is quite spacious and exquisite.

After all, this hall is for future practitioners, and it is naturally different from the hall where people live.

Even if most of them can't be admitted to the Chonghua Academy, even if they are losers, there are other ways to choose, such as Dayu's strongest army, the 'Fengtian Army', one of the sources of grassroots military strength is these Yuansheng, such as the town cadres who repaired the Chonghua City formation, and they will also absorb Yuansheng as the grassroots level.

Therefore, as long as you can live in this hall, you are destined to be an extraordinary person in the future.

"Thank you, Sister Yan, for sending us here."

In the hall of Qingsu Garden, Fan Qingyao gave Yan Nan a blessing, and said suspiciously: "However, why did Sister Yan let people prepare lunch just now, do you want to stay too?" ”

"No, I'll leave at night." Yan Nan said helplessly: "It's just that I came out this time, and I was able to do my errand...... It's not good, I don't want to go back to the house for the time being, so as not to be reprimanded by my father, and I don't want to go back to the school palace, otherwise I have to be taught by the scholar, have a meal at your place, just talk to you about the school palace, and I can visit His Royal Highness King Ning later. ”

Fan Qingyao suddenly glanced at Lin Lan again, and found that he had half-squinted his eyes and had already entered the state of cultivation.

"It seems that your son-in-law is still a person who loves Qing cultivation, and he should be more suitable for Taoism." Yan Nan couldn't help but joke with a smile.

"However, I have heard before that Chonghua is the land of human sects, and people who are Taoist Buddhas are not allowed to travel at will." Fan Qingyao was puzzled: "But just now I saw a lot of Taoist priests and monks on the way here, are there many Taoist Buddhas in Chonghua City now?" ”

Yan Nan was silent for a moment, sighed, and then said: "This time is different from the past, today's Dayu is no longer the Dayu who once dominated the world, and the current Renzong is not the Renzong where the Seven Sages were in charge before, and even the first generation of national teachers are still there." ”

She shook her head slightly, "Daji takes Buddhism as the state religion, and Houchu takes Taoism as the state religion, and now he is coming under the banner of the Huimeng, who can't see the intentions?" Everyone knows that the two sects of Taoism and Buddhism both want to replace the human sect to become the state religion of Dayu, if it weren't for the fact that the sect master was still sitting in the position of the national teacher, shocking the Quartet, I am afraid that Dayu would have been eaten up long ago. ”

Fan Qingyao listened with some confusion, and then realized that the situation in Dayu had reached this point?

"But what's the solution?" Yan Nan sighed: "Da Yu has already had a lot of wars with Northern Qi, but now it is considered to be an enemy on his back, and he can only be so deadlocked. ”

Fan Qingyao couldn't help but say abruptly: "It's a pity that the Seven Saints and the first generation of national teachers are gone, otherwise how can they be allowed to bully me?" ”

"Yes, it's a pity that the first generation of national teachers and the Seven Saints are also human beings after all, and it is difficult to live forever."

Yan Nan also sighed, and then said to Fan Qingyao: "Therefore, the future of the Renzong can only depend on us, Qingyao, you must practice hard, your talent is already the highest among the people I have seen, and now Buddhism is spreading all over the world, and too many talents have been divided, so that the Renzong is gradually declining, such a genius of yours is already rare, don't let down your talent." ”

The two chatted, while Lin Lan was immersed in the quiet and practiced, while listening silently and thinking in his heart.

Another half hour passed.

A maid suddenly walked in from outside the hall and said respectfully: "Yan Xuezheng, Fan Yuansheng, Lin Yuansheng, His Royal Highness King Ning and several Yuansheng are walking here, planning to visit the three of them. ”

"His Royal Highness King Ning is coming?" Yan Nan raised his eyebrows slightly, and then said, "Okay, I know, you go and prepare tea." ”

After the maid retreated, Yan Nan turned her head to look at Fan Qingyao and said, "I'll just say that His Royal Highness King Ning, why did he suddenly live in this hall, it seems that Cheng Xiaohou Ye sent the news back to Chonghua yesterday, and His Royal Highness King Ning learned the news and came over to woo you." ”

She shook her head and smiled, "Being the same Yuansheng, living and walking together like this, and bringing a few Yuansheng to visit in person, it can be regarded as quite sincere, it seems that it should have been taught to him by His Royal Highness the Prince, after all, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has always been a corporal of Lixian." ”

"Qing Yao."

Lin Lan suddenly said: "Push me to the back room, I don't have time to collect the credit." ”

I will see His Royal Highness King Ning later, but I have to salute, but I don't have time to collect the merit at this time, so it is better not to see it, so I will be exempted from this salute.

It would be too wasteful to let the tranquility that had accumulated for more than half a month dissipate just to stand up and salute, and the cultivation speed would be reduced to only a fraction of it.

Yan Nan glanced at him helplessly and said, "That's right, then you better don't see him." ”

"Yes, Childe."

Fan Qingyao immediately pushed Lin Lan and was about to go to the inner room next to the hall, but at this moment, there was a sound of footsteps outside the hall.

Unexpectedly, His Royal Highness King Ning came down so quickly, Yan Nan hurriedly grabbed Fan Qingyao, shook his head at her slightly, and said in a low voice: "Forget it, it's too late, anyway, Lin Lan is also a cultivator, even if he doesn't salute, it's nothing, and deliberately hiding is even more rude." ”

Fan Qingyao had no choice but to give up.

I saw six figures walking in, led by a young man wearing a golden jade hair crown, wearing a red robe with a dragon plate collar, and a forbidden jade pendant at his waist, about early in his twenties, wearing the prince's regular clothes, naturally it was His Royal Highness King Ning.

And behind him, in addition to the two guards with cold faces, were three young Yuansheng.

Yan Nan immediately stepped forward and saluted, "I've seen His Royal Highness King Ning." ”

Fan Qingyao also saluted.

Lin Lan, on the other hand, sat motionless on the chair and said, "I have seen His Royal Highness King Ning, and I am physically inconvenient and unable to salute, so I ask Your Highness to forgive me." ”

"Physically challenged?" His Royal Highness King Ning frowned slightly.

Yan Nan was also a little helpless, so he had to open his mouth to help explain: "Your Highness, this Lin Gongzi practices a special method of meditation, which cannot be moved casually, and it is more troublesome to collect the gong, after the maid reported, I didn't expect you to come so soon, so he hasn't had time to collect the gong yet." ”

Her words also pointed out Lin Lan's identity as a cultivator.

As a practitioner, according to the Dayu ritual method, there is no need to bow to the royal family and magnates.

It's just that the royal family is a royal family after all, even if there is no need to salute, the general meeting must at least be a simple salute, if it is completely ignored, it can only be regarded as rude, but it is not a violation of the etiquette law, and it is not related to the crime of contempt for the royal majesty.

"Jinggong method?"

King Ning frowned and glanced at Lin Lan, and then said lightly: "I see, you must be Lin Yuansheng, right?" Everyone is the same Yuansheng, and they may still be classmates in the future, but they don't have to stick to identity etiquette, and this king naturally won't blame you. ”

Everyone could see that His Royal Highness the young King Ning still cared, but he just held back.

"Speaking of which, if Your Highness wants to see us, send someone to pass on a message, how did you think of coming to visit in person?" Yan Nan smiled and changed the subject.

"How does this work?"

King Ning shook his head and said: "Mr. Yan is a scholar, and Miss Fan is also the same Yuansheng as this king, so she should be respectful, how can she call and drink?" ”

Yan Nan said with a smile: "His Royal Highness King Ning is so polite and virtuous, he already has a bit of the demeanor of His Royal Highness the Prince, no wonder His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has favored you so much over the years." ”

The corners of King Ning's mouth already showed a smile, but he still said modestly: "Yan Xuezheng has passed the award, this king has been taught by the emperor's eldest brother since he was a child, and he has always taken the emperor's eldest brother as a model, but he has only learned a little bit, how can he be compared with the emperor's eldest brother?" ”

Speaking of this, he looked at Lin Lan and Fan Qingyao again, and said, "I heard that Lin Yuansheng and Fan Yuansheng are masters and servants?" ”

"That's true." Yan Nan said: "Lin Gongzi has a great favor to Qing Yao, and Qing Yao is also to repay the favor. ”

"I see."

King Ning nodded slightly, looked at Lin Lan again, and said: "Lin Yuansheng, this matter is your private matter, this king should not take care of it, but I heard that Fan Yuansheng is extremely talented, and he will become an atmosphere in the future, maybe he will be the mainstay of my Dayu Renzong in the future, but ...... Since he is a cultivator of the Human Sect, he is naturally a pillar of the country, how can he be a servant with others? I'm afraid this is unreasonable. ”

He shook his head and sighed: "If this matter spreads out in the future, I am afraid it will become a joke of my Dayu Renzong, so that other countries will laugh at my Dayu in vain, saying that I am ashamed of treating talents, and at that time, it will hurt more than the face of the Renzong." ”

Lin Lan looked at the young prince with a calm face and said, "So, what does His Royal Highness King Ning mean?" ”

King Ning looked at Lin Lan with his eyes, and said slowly in an unquestionable tone: "Can Lin Yuansheng give this king a little thin noodles, let Fan Yuansheng go, don't let her continue to be a servant?" If you need a servant, the king can choose ten or even a hundred handmaidens who are like flowers, what do you think? ”

After listening to this, Yan Nan could already imagine the next scene, and couldn't help but have a headache.

"Your Highness doesn't have to be like this." Lin Lan said lightly: "I didn't treat Qing Yao as a servant originally, she can leave at any time if she wants." ”

King Ning was overjoyed in his heart, and immediately asked, "Is this true?" ”

He has the heart to recruit talents for the emperor's eldest brother, and this kind of cultivation genius is naturally an excellent good seedling, and he must be subdued as soon as possible, with this kind of thing to win people's hearts, he naturally can't wait to come.

"His Royal Highness King Ning."

Fan Qingyao next to him took a deep breath and said: "My Fan family has received great favor from Lin Gongzi, and I can't repay it, so I am willing to be Mr. Lin's maidservant, and I have nothing to do with him, and please don't break up our master and servant." ”

King Ning was stunned for a moment, and then frowned and said: "Fanyuansheng, you have such talent, you will definitely be able to worship the human sect in the future, how can you be a slave for others?" Isn't it a laughing stock if it spreads out? ”

Fan Qingyao was silent for a moment, and saluted respectfully: "His Royal Highness King Ning is thoughtful, the little woman has never thought about it so much, thank you Your Highness for reminding me." ”

King Ning was overjoyed, and immediately said with a smile: "It's okay, now you ......"

Before he finished speaking, he heard Fan Qingyao continue: "In this case, the little girl is willing to give up the entrance assessment of the Chonghua Academy, as long as the little woman is not a student of the Chonghua Academy, she will not fall into the laughing stock of people in the future and hurt the face of the Renzong, right?" ”

King Ning was stunned, looked at Fan Qingyao speechlessly, opened his mouth, but couldn't say a word.

His original intention was to win over the genius Fan Qingyao, who would have thought that things would evolve like this?

If the Sect knew that just because of his words, he had forced away a future genius, then the faction of the Emperor's eldest brother would naturally be disgusted by the Sect of the People, and the plot to win over the Sect of Men in the future would probably have failed half of it before it began.

And he is not only useless, but great!

For a while, King Ning was embarrassed.
