Chapter 615: On the National Teacher in Wine
"All kinds of strange ores and spirit woods."
"I thought it was a rare treasure, but I didn't expect it to be raw materials." He Lingchuan stroked his chin, as long as it was related to the Ke family, he was interested, "Doesn't the Ke family have a jewelry industry and entrust Dunyuan to find a source of goods?" ”
Which of these Lingxu City nobles is not sitting on a huge fortune and doing the most profitable and monopolistic business?
"Of course, the Ke family also has a jewelry business, but that's not the point." Fang Canran pointed to the north, "These things are for the supply over there." ”
North?
He Lingchuan followed and looked north.
What's in the north? Market Hill or Floating Island?
"Over there?"
At the mention of Xushan, He Lingchuan immediately remembered that on the day he followed the tour group to Tianshu Peak, Ke Yanming also went up the mountain in the teleportation array, and the servants behind him were carrying a few large boxes.
Apparently he was going to deliver something to the Star Picking Tower.
Fang Canran said slowly: "For a long time, the Ke family has to serve the mountains of Xushan Mountain. ”
This is well known in the upper circles of Lingxu City.
"Mountain ......" He Lingchuan shook his cup, "The magma in Tianshu Peak? ”
"Not bad." Fang Canran nodded, "Only the Ke family can meet Shan Ze's requirements." That is the reason why they enjoy the glory in peace, how many people in Lingxu City want to replace them, but they never succeed. ”
He Lingchuan suddenly realized: "There is such a bullish mountain? ”
No wonder, no wonder the last step before the completion of the Great Gathering Spirit Array, that is, before the formation was placed, the emperor would ask the Ke family to appease the Torch to sleep, because the things he worshiped were the most popular with the rock fire monsters, and they would enjoy it without any worries.
"In the same mountains, deep mountains and old forests, you can only manage a few beasts and a few monsters, and basically no one worships them; And the mountains of the Xushan Mountain stomped their feet, and the entire Lingxu City trembled. You say, does it have any capital? ”
"The earthquake more than ten years ago?"
Fang Canran nodded: "Gongzi He also knows a lot about the old things in Lingxu City. ”
"What's happening here is a big deal, and it's a big deal."
He Lingchuan said, his gaze subconsciously fell on his seal ring again.
If you want to talk about wandering on the edge of life and death, he seems to be a little worse than Shao Jian at present.
That man traveled around with the Torture Dragon Pillar, trying to block the gods and poke holes in the divine realm.
Once the gods behind Lingxu City find out what he has done, they will probably arrest him and cramp and skin him.
Fang Canran sat upright and also looked at the seal:
"He Gongzi seems to be very concerned about this ring?"
This is a knee-jerk gesture that shows that he attaches great importance to the conversation that follows.
Finally got to the point, He Lingchuan's face was as usual: "Well, the style is very special, and I also want to create one." ”
If he guessed correctly, this is the purpose of Fang Canran's visit today!
He Lingchuan also cheered up.
This person's heart is as careful as a hair, and he looked at the seal ring twice in Dunyuan, and he found out.
But this also reflects that Fang Canran is very clear about the origin of the five-pattern snail ring.
He wanted to come over to test how much He Lingchuan knew about the secret behind this.
"This is the ancestor to ......"
"Many nobles in the West have the habit of wearing seal rings, which are not only good-looking, but also convenient to stamp." He Lingchuan clenched his fists, touched the table with his knuckles, and made a stamped gesture.
Fang Canran smiled slightly: "Not bad." He Gongzi is young and has a wide range of knowledge. ”
"This kind of seal ring has been passed down from generation to generation, how many years has Mr. Fang's one been extended?"
"From the ancestors who forged this ring?" Fang Canran groaned, "I'm afraid there are a hundred ...... Yes, it's been more than 160 years. ”
He Lingchuan's eyes flashed slightly.
Counting from the time when Shao Jian fled the Yuan Kingdom and traveled the world, it was indeed more than 160 years, and Fang Canran remembered it very carefully.
But this is not normal.
Some practitioners can barely reach the age of 130 or 40, but the average life expectancy of civilians is less than 40, and if they live to be 60 years old, they should have a feast to celebrate.
They die early, they live short, and they don't know or care about what happened generations ago.
What is the name of grandpa's grandpa? Most people can't answer.
It's not because the number dictionary forgets its ancestors, but it's not easy to survive, and people have to run for their livelihoods, and they can't share a little leisure.
Unless the descendants are developed and noble, they must repair the genealogy of the family temple.
But if you are as fine as Fang Canran, who can even remember the age of a ring clearly, it is strange. In particular, he said that his ancestors' lives were all wandering, and he only settled in Lingxu City sixty years ago.
If people are always moving around, it is easy to lose the history, traditions, and customs of the past.
This ring is not a rare treasure, why do generations of the Fang family have to bother to remember it?
The most important thing is that Fang Canran can speak conclusively, most of which is because the ancestors of all generations have taken this matter to heart and truly achieved an orderly circulation.
Otherwise, as a descendant of later generations, how did Fang Canran know?
He Lingchuan also looked at the seal ring: "The Fang family's attention to this ring has been passed down for more than one hundred and sixty years. ”
Fang Canran smiled silently: "Yes." ”
"Does it have any special meaning to the other family?" The things passed down by the ancestors are not necessarily good, and they may not be valued by the younger generations.
"Meaning?" Fang Canran looked at He Lingchuan and said, "Is He Gongzi so curious when he sees other people's ancestral rings?" ”
"No, that's it." He Lingchuan shook his head, "I always feel like I've seen it somewhere, especially these five threads, it seems to be exquisite." ”
"What's so important?"
"It seems that the threads are different, and the status is still a little different."
"It's no secret, the first ancestor of the Fang family once founded a chamber of commerce, and he used this seal ring as a seal. Business was doing a lot, but few of the seals were not sent. Fang Canran looked deeply, "Where has Gongzi He seen this kind of seal ring?" ”
He Lingchuan pondered for a while before sighing: "I just can't remember." ”
"Really?" Fang Canran didn't seem to take it seriously, but just smiled, "Then if Gongzi He can remember it in the future, please tell me." ”
He Lingchuan repeatedly: "Of course, of course!" ”
The matter was not mentioned, and the two talked about the recent interesting things in Lingxu City. He Lingchuan's heart moved, and he asked about the recent situation of Qingyang National Teacher.
"Qingyang National Teacher attended many events as usual, and as far as I know, she also donated a lot of money to the orphans of the meerkat clan yesterday." Fang Canran smiled and said, "Has Gongzi He seen the Qingyang National Teacher?" ”
He Lingchuan shook his head: "I didn't get a chance." ”
"In a few days, the grass sea will be active, and most of the Qingyang National Teachers will go." Fang Canran asked in a low voice, "I heard that there are clues in the elixir case pointing to Qingyang National Teacher, is this true or false?" ”
Of course, the details of the case will not be made public, but these powerful people have a way to find out.
"The suspect who is currently on the run has a picture scroll of Qingyang National Teacher, and he himself seems to have a relationship with Qingyang National Teacher." He Lingchuan poured a glass of wine, "After the case, it will be handed over to Bai Du to continue the investigation." ”
He asked Fang Canran: "I heard that the Four Great Masters are headed by the Qingyang National Teacher, and she has been in power for the longest time?" ”
Fang Canran nodded: "When the first ancestor of my family was still alive, she had already become the national teacher of Bejia, she was the youngest at the time, and now she has become the eldest. ”
He Lingchuan was surprised: "More than one hundred and sixty years ago, she was already a national teacher? ”
Fang Canran smiled: "Almost." The national teachers all live longer, and the Frost Leaf National Teachers look younger on the outside, only about twenty people. ”
He Lingchuan was stunned: "Hey, isn't it only the national teachers of the Spring and Summer Palaces who are humans?" ”
"Yes, among the four national teachers, there must be two great demons and two human beings." Fang Canran explained, "The Frost Leaf National Master just looks like a human on the outside, but his real body is actually a demon. ”
"What kind of youkai is it?" Fu Shanyue looks like a human, but in fact he is a lu. But He Lingchuan heard that Beijia is so big that there are only two heads, no, it should be three heads now.
"I heard that it is an extremely rare monster, and the famous work is 'Du Yi'." Fang Canran said with a smile, "The first national teacher in the history of Bejia is also Du Yi. They may be from the same family. ”
He Lingchuan said: "The one who can produce two national teachers must be the Lingxu Wang clan." ”
Fang Canran waved his hand: "No, no, no." After the founding of the first national teacher, Du Yi disappeared from the long river of history until the appearance of the frost leaf national teacher. Youkai are different from humans, and the more powerful the youkai, the lower the fertility, and it is easy to lose the generation. Today's Frost Leaf National Master has no descendants, and Jun Shang is more satisfied with this. ”
"I see." To be honest, He Lingchuan's curiosity about the Frost Leaf National Master was no worse than that of the Qingyang National Teacher. "I heard that there seems to be some gap between the Qingyang National Teacher and the Frost Leaf National Master?"
It is too gentle to describe it as "gap", and as far as He Lingchuan knows, they seem to be eager to kill each other. Isn't the Frost Leaf National Master sheltering the abandoned apprentice Xi Yunhe of the Qingyang National Master just to deal with her?
"High-ranking officials, how can they be harmonious?" Fang Canran said with a smile, "No matter how big or small the country is, this is not the case. ”
What Mr. Fang said was very true. But I originally thought that the Qingyang National Master and the Frost Leaf National Master would attack each other in the elixir case. But since I came to Lingxu City, the Qinggong seems to have not moved. "The thunderous fury from the Qing Palace doesn't seem to have appeared.
"Still water flows deeply. Chiyan and He Xiao are no longer involved in the case, and you will not feel the turbulent undercurrent. Fang Canran said with a smile, "When you were handling a case in Baisha, could other celebrities and gentry see the private confrontation between Ling and Cen Boqing and others?" ”
He Lingchuan thought about it and shook his head.
When he pursued the case the most, Cen Boqing found the spell master Cheng Yu to take his life. Nightmare kills people without a trace, where do others know?
Therefore, if the Qingyang National Teacher and the Frost Leaf National Teacher have a trick, many outsiders may not know it at all.
Fang Canran said again: "Actually, the Qing Palace has already started to fight back. For example, in the major corruption case that broke out a few days ago, Jia Qingmin, the Shaofu Cheng who was investigated, had some dealings with the Frost Leaf National Master, and his nephew served in the Autumn Palace. ”
He Lingchuan understood: "Two birds with one stone." ”
At that time, Prince Huan had just come to Pan Shan's house to kill people and set fires, and the news was released later. Now it seems that it was done by the Qing Palace, on the one hand, to divert the heat of public opinion, and on the other hand, to retaliate against the Frost Leaf National Teacher.
