Chapter 41: A New Atmosphere at the Bright Peak

Since Boxian Town went all the way to the west, Zhang Wuji and his entourage had people to answer from the side.

Wherever there are people, there are strongholds or post stations of Mingjiao.

Compared with Bianliang in the Central Plains, the Western Regions is more like Zhang Wuji's territory. Nowadays, many towns in the Western Regions, as well as small city-states in the past, have hung the banner of Mingjiao and are occupied by Mingjiao followers.

And "Mingzun" is worshiped as a god by the people here. Moreover, many priests of other religions, in order to cater to the actual ruler of Mingjiao and protect their own status, were also very knowledgeable and immediately portrayed Zhang Wuji as the incarnation or messenger of the gods of their respective religions. In order to maintain the rule of Mingjiao in the Western Regions.

Because of Yang Xiao's flying pigeon biography, the news that Zhang Wuji was proclaimed emperor in the Central Plains was also transmitted back to the Western Regions in advance.

Wherever Zhang Wuji and others passed, many places have begun to use the "dragon and phoenix money". Although the Western Regions is the hub of commerce between the East and the West, the monetary system is very complicated. However, the gold and silver currency printed with the words "Dragon and Phoenix Tongbao" and "Dragon and Phoenix Ingot" is still easy to see.

Today's Western Regions is under the governance of Fan Yao, and it seems to be a thriving scene.

With the exception of a few large cities that remained under the control of the Mongol army, many of the smaller cities were almost all occupied by the Ming Sect. Mingjiao became the de facto government there.

Moreover, the taxes issued by Mingjiao are basically the level of ordinary officials, and there are no other harsh taxes and miscellaneous taxes, which can also protect the safety of merchants. Therefore, these Central Asian merchants were happy to pay taxes to Mingjiao.

In order to accumulate money, Fan Yao also turned businesses such as tea, porcelain, and pepper into a Mingjiao monopoly.

Not only is the price affordable, but the quality of the goods is also passable. Many merchants in the Western Regions are also willing to establish long-term supply relationships with Mingjiao. This also made Mingjiao make a lot of windfalls.

Later, Fan Yao registered all the money and put it into the "treasury" of Guangmingding. It is used to expand armaments, provide relief to the people, and so on.

After seven or eight days of travel, everyone finally arrived at the long-awaited Guangming Peak.

Today's Guangming Ding is completely different from the last time Zhang Wuji left.

It's no longer as deserted as it used to be, on the contrary, it's a lot more lively because of the crowds. Moreover, all the buildings that were destroyed when the six major factions encircled and suppressed the Guangming Dome were also repaired by Fan Yao.

It's not that magnificent, but it's definitely not bad.

As the main buildings of the Ming Sect, the Daming Palace and the Dayun Guangming Hall have been well repaired.

Originally, everyone could ride the pannier directly from the foot of the mountain to the top of the light.

But they haven't been back for a long time, and Zhang Wuji and the others plan to walk up the mountain.

Although the snow on the top of the light is as old as ever, it also gives everyone a lot of new looks.

Yang didn't regret anything, after all, when she followed her to Middle-earth, the Guangming Dome had already begun to repair it. She wasn't too surprised.

As for Zhang Wuji and Xiao Zhao, they were the same as the first time they came, looking east and west, and they felt that everything here was very novel.

People like them, and Dexteria.

However, Daisy returned to the top of the light again, more with some sadness. She never came back after she broke out of school.

Even if it was the six major factions to encircle and suppress Guangmingding, she only sent Xiao Zhao to come, and she felt ashamed of her father-in-law Yang Dingtian, she didn't have the face to climb to Guangding for half a step, but waited for Xiao Zhao's news outside.

Seeing her expression, Zhang Wuji asked, "Dragon King, I haven't come back for many years, do you feel it?" ”

Dai Qisi came back to her senses and said, "Back to the sect leader, there are naturally some feelings. After so many years, there are some things and people here. ”

Finally, everyone stepped on the last step and looked at the Daming Palace, the main building of Guangmingding.

Zhang Wuji looked at the newly repaired Daming Palace, pinched his chin and said with a smile: "Hmm! Not bad! This kind of architecture is more in line with my aesthetics. At least it's much better than the old dome. ”

Although Daisy wanted to refute, she thought that the Persian Patriarch was going to be precarious. And Zhang Wuji also likes this architectural style, so she doesn't talk much.

Seeing the Mingjiao building that has now completely changed the door, Dai Qisi also sighed helplessly, it seems that the Mingjiao will not be long after, and only the "Middle Earth" family will remain.

Dai Qisi has this feeling, because the original architectural style of Daming Palace is biased towards the architecture of the Western Regions. Although there are some styles of Middle-earth architecture, it is only a little bit.

And now, after rebuilding, it has completely changed into the style of a Middle-earth palace. There is no "Persian taste" at all.

Looking at his new palace, Zhang Wuji nodded with satisfaction.

Although Zhou Zhiruo was a little impatient to go in and have a look, when she thought that she had stabbed Zhang Wuji in the altar square behind, she swallowed it back just as she was about to speak, for fear that Zhao Min and the others would bring up the old matter again.

Zhao Min seemed to see the eagerness in Zhou Zhiruo's eyes, she looked at Zhang Wuji and said, "Brother Wuji, since you're back, let's take us around quickly." ”

Zhang Wuji smiled and said, "It's okay! Then let's go in and have a look. Then Zhang Wuji looked at Yang Buregret and said, "Don't regret my sister, I will work hard for you to invite Fan You, Monk Peng, and Mr. Leng Qian to come to see me." I will wait for them above this golden temple. ”

After Yang Buregret nodded, he went to inform everyone of the news of Zhang Wuji's return.

Then Zhang Wuji led everyone into the Great Cloud Light Palace.

The exterior has been decorated here, and the interior is the same today. The original hall is a plain and clean white jade pillar.

But because of Fan Yao's favor, the stone pillar here is now a golden dragon by the skillful craftsman of the Ruijin Banner.

Originally full of frescoes, the dome was replaced by a five-clawed coiled dragon with a luminous stone bead in its mouth.

And on the stone steps in front of the door, the Dan Majesty Stone is also intimately arranged.

And Zhang Wuji stepped on the royal road with great ambition and slowly walked back to his golden throne. Then he turned around and sat down in style.

looked at Zhang Wuji, who was sitting on the golden throne. Zhao Minhuan raised his hand and asked, "Brother Wuji, are we going to make a big gift to you now?" ”

Zhou Zhiruo said at this time: "Naturally, I want it." Although Brother Wuji has not officially ascended the throne, he has been regarded as a co-lord by the princes of the world, and he is already a well-deserved son of heaven. Etiquette must not be abolished, and a little decency must be erected! ”

Saying that, Zhou Zhiruo took the lead in saluting Zhang Wuji and said, "The folk girl Zhou Zhiruo sees Your Majesty!" Your Majesty, Hail Blessed! ”

Seeing that Zhou Zhiruo took the lead, Yin Li, Yucui also felt very funny, and also followed Zhou Zhiruo's example to salute Zhang Wuji. It's the same thing.

Needless to say, Xiao Zhao is Zhang Wuji's girl, and it is not a big deal to give a big gift to her son-in-law.

And Dai Qisi was originally a member of the Ming Sect, and she also knelt down respectfully in front of Zhang Wuji and saluted.

And after Zhao Min smiled slightly, she also shouted: "Concubine Zhao Min see Your Majesty!" Zhao Min naturally didn't have any resistance, after all, she knelt in front of Zhang Wuji on weekdays.

However, hearing Zhao Min's self-proclaim, although everyone felt a little awkward, they were also relieved.

After all, among the people present, Zhang Wuji really married Zhao Min. It's not wrong to call yourself a "concubine".

Seeing that everyone knelt down, the woman in the yellow shirt was very embarrassed at this time.
