Chapter 425: Heavenly Iron Qujian Sword
Xian County Lord's Mansion, martial arts arena.
Zhou Jingxian was holding a red gold sword in her hand, and she was practicing the chopping action to restore her body that had not practiced for a long time.
After practicing for an hour, she took the handkerchief handed by the maidservant and wiped her sweat, and she was still a little unaccustomed to it.
Since the division of the government and the establishment of self-reliance, her father advised her to arrange more manpower to serve daily life, and no longer to do everything by herself as before, and to have the prestige of a royal child.
Zhou Jingxian looked at the handmaiden who wiped her sweat, and specially handed the handkerchief to another maid to wash, and then continued to stand in place, waiting for the maid who specially wiped her sweat, and twisted her eyebrows.
The majesty of the royal family?
"Someone helps wipe the sweat, someone helps feed the meal, and someone helps dress when you wake up, is this considered a prestige?"
Zhou Jingxian said to herself, and couldn't help but think of Youngchu.
The Shen family can no longer be described as powerful, but even if you are young, even if you will not be left alone at any time, she is also a person who can do everything by herself, and will not fake it to others.
"You go down, I will practice martial arts in the future, you don't have to follow me to bask in the sun, do other things, if you have nothing to do, you can find something to do by yourself, whether it is a female worker or farming, this county lord's mansion is so big, don't be idle."
In the face of Zhou Jingxian's sudden order, the maidservant who was specially responsible for wiping sweat in the martial arts field was startled, and hurriedly knelt on the ground and begged for mercy.
"The county lord spares his life, the slave and maid don't know what they did wrong and angered the county lord, and asks the county lord to punish the slave and maid, but don't drive the slave and maid away, otherwise the slave and maid will be sold, and I am afraid that I will go to the Qinglou to pick up guests."
“……”
Zhou Jingxian was a little annoyed.
So she really doesn't like to have too many people around her.
The more people there are, the more things you do.
In particular, some people don't understand what she means at all, and there will be a lot of chaos in that matter, and it is not a simple matter to open a mansion alone.
But.
Thinking that after opening the mansion alone, when Youchu and Mr. Ning came to the capital, they would have a place to stay, so thinking about it, these people in the mansion really can't be reduced.
"Get up, I didn't mean to drive you away, you ...... Just stand farther away in the future, so as not to hurt you, I will wipe the sweat myself, your strength is too light. ”
Yes? Is it because of her small strength that the county lord dislikes her?
The maidservant Xiaochi looked up at the Xian County Lord, who was a head above her, and was still very worried.
Zhou Jingxian saw that this little maid who was only thirteen or fourteen years old, she must have been panicked in her heart, and tried her best to control her raised phoenix eyes, and smiled sideways: "I don't dislike you for your strength, I am ...... Forget it, anyway, I don't like others to be present when I practice martial arts. ”
Wow, the county lord was really explaining it to her.
Xiao Chi understood this time, and she nodded hurriedly: "Please rest assured, the slave maid will stand farther next time." ”
After speaking, Koike kept stepping back with his hands on the handkerchief.
retreated to the gate of the courtyard, and accidentally hit the wall before stopping, but the handkerchief in her hand accidentally fell to the ground, and she quickly admitted her mistake and apologized.
Zhou Jingxian saw Xiao Chi's nervous appearance and smiled dumbly.
Seeing her smile, Koike grinned with a new handkerchief.
The master and servant looked at each other, and they couldn't help but smile deeply.
"Lord Xian smiled so happily, it can be seen that the old slave came at a really good time."
Su Peiyuan's sudden arrival made Zhou Jingxian quickly restrain her smile.
The only people who entered her house without being passed on were the imperial grandfather and the imperial grandfather's people.
But she has never been familiar with these people, and when she meets them at this time, she can only nod politely.
"Mr. Su is in charge."
The dry sentence made the scene a little embarrassing.
Fortunately, Su Peiyuan followed Zhou Qian's side, and he also had some understanding of the temper of this Xian county lord, and in his opinion, it was precisely because of this that His Majesty was granted forgiveness today.
"Lord Xian, the old slave is here to pass on His Majesty's holy decree, please take the decree from Lord Xian."
When she saw the holy decree in Su Peiyuan's hand, she had already guessed Su Peiyuan's intention.
At this time, when he heard Su Peiyuan's words, he walked up to him and knelt down without saying a word.
There is no curiosity and the emperor's right-hand man to take the opportunity to win over the relationship, straightforward and outrageous.
"Fengtian carries the emperor: the edict said: Xian County Lord hangs the disaster victims, for me to relieve my worries, it is really a great filial piety, but also a blessing of great prosperity, from now on, Xian County Lord leads the Ministry of Industry Supervision and Special Officer, can be according to the county lord's grade, into the political palace deliberations."
The county lord grade is three grades.
The third-grade senior officers of the DPRK can count them with their fingers.
Zhou Jingxian gave the 360,000 taels of silver tickets, and she really thought that the imperial grandfather would reward her for this, but she didn't expect to give her such a superb status.
The official position of the father is only from the fourth grade.
Zhou Jingxian thought that she would go to court tomorrow and stand higher than her father, and she always felt that something was strange, but she couldn't say it.
"In addition, I have a Tiantie soft sword used in the past, called Qu Jian Sword, which is specially given to the county lord Xian, and I admire it."
Qu Jianjian?!
Hearing that she was going to give this sword to herself, Zhou Jingxian suddenly became interested, and after standing up to accept the order, she anxiously probed back.
"Mr. Su, where's the sword?"
Qu Jian sword is made of heavenly iron, the sword is as its name, not only tough, can cut the stone and break the iron without hurting a minute, and the degree of bending is also different from ordinary weapons, only to be named Qu Jian Sword by the emperor's grandfather, meaning that it can bend and stretch and can break ten thousand strong.
When it was made into a sword, it took several years to find several masters who cast swords to obtain this soft sword as a personal protection for the emperor's grandfather.
The sword can be carried in the sleeve and is easy to carry.
Zhou Jingxian shook the red gold sword in her hand, and had already thought of the use of this sword.
When Su Peiyuan saw the Xian County Lord, he didn't ask about the preparations for tomorrow's court, but first asked Qu Jianjian, and he knew the preferences of this Xian County Lord, and when he was about to go back to report to His Majesty, he would say a few more words.
Gifts should be sent to people's hearts, and this Xian county lord threw 360,000 taels of silver tickets to send them, and there may be any surprises in the future.
You have to let Your Majesty know the preferences of Lord Xian in advance, and it is this weapon.
"If you go back to the county lord, Qu Jianjian has been in the treasure house for many years, and Your Majesty is taking care of it personally, and it will be sent to the county lord as soon as it is taken care of."
When Su Peiyuan said this, he just wanted to use Zhou Jingxian's sword at this time to raise Qu Jian's sword.
When he saw that the county lord was holding a red gold sword in his hand, the words came to his lips and he held back.
"Lord Xian, if the old slave is not mistaken, this red gold sword in your hand is a reward for the Ning family?"
This sword is also a kind of soft sword, but it is more than one grade worse than the Qu Jian sword, but whether it is a gift from the emperor or a special gift from His Majesty, Su Peiyuan even cares about its advantages and disadvantages.
I just understood in my heart why His Majesty gave the Xian County Lord the convenience of the court deliberations, I am afraid that it is for Ning to enter Beijing in the future, so that the Xian County Lord has a plan to receive him as a substitute for Daxing officials.
Zhou Jingxian handed over all the silver tickets, and the private message was also replied to, and she didn't have to hide that her personal relationship with Mr. Ning was good, so she immediately pulled a sword flower and bent the corners of her lips.
"The weapon I was carrying was damaged in Lai'an County, and Mr. Ning gave me this red gold sword at that time, and the Ning family has registered the transfer in Jinling Mansion."
Su Peiyuan didn't take it to heart when Lord Xian suddenly proposed a sentence about the transfer registration, and only said "Ning Shixian is righteous".
The two stood dryly facing each other for a few moments, and neither of them spoke again.
It wasn't until the steward of the county lord's mansion came with a handful of golden beans in his hand, stuffed it into the hands of Su Peiyuan, who came to issue the decree as usual, and personally took people down to drink tea and rest, which was considered to have completed the process of announcing the decree.
Regarding the fact that the county lord did not understand the process, Su Peiyuan only regarded it as the first time she encountered this matter, and did not take it to heart, and while accepting the golden beans, she politely declined the invitation of the steward to drink tea.
"Your Majesty is still waiting in the palace for the old slave to return."
Su Peiyuan was happy to add icing on the cake, and he had to hurry back to the palace to tell His Majesty that Lord Xian was very much looking forward to giving Qu Jianjian.
In the martial arts arena.
Zhou Jingxian's eyebrows and eyes were indeed happy and smiled, thinking about it, she still couldn't calm down, gently stroked the red gold sword in her hand, and made a decision.
"I haven't written to Mr. Ning for a long time, and I don't know if he passed the martial arts exam?"
