When.

The sky is clear and the sun is shining.

The countless golden tiles on top of the magnificent palace city reflect the sunlight more colorfully, and even make it impossible to look up at the sky.

The originally heavily guarded city has returned to its former calm, and there are sparse pedestrians on the long street, and the wind and dust are stirring under the wheels.

The noble-born young masters and young ladies went to the outskirts of the city in groups and with a group of servants to find fun.

The apricot blossoms are in full bloom before and after the Qingming Festival, and the mountain springs flow in the apricot groves outside the city, and all kinds of food and wine have already been prepared...... This is a unique skirt banquet between dignitaries and dignitaries.

It is usually presided over by some wealthy children and literati, who do not forget to compose music for the game when they drink and have fun, and also get together to talk about the recent events in the Chu State.

During this period, it was inevitable to talk about the transfer of the Chu State, but for these nobles, it was just a rumor.

The matter of the new emperor of the Chu State did not bring about too many changes in this world.

The scattered cultivators don't care who the current emperor is, and the ordinary villagers don't care too much, for them, this emperor is not as touching as the county lord's position.

The afterglow of this Lan Qingji reverberating at the end of the Chu State was just a conversation for them after tea and dinner.

Meanwhile.

Spacious in the Imperial Study.

Chen Changsheng, Liu Zijing and Bai Wanqiu sat casually in front of the delicate wooden case and talked, and Zhao Qing's family and Shen Mo were naturally here.

On the phoenix crown taken off by the aunt, the pearl and jade are swaying and gorgeous.

She slowly made hot tea and helped Shuyue and Qinghuan serve tea and pour water for everyone.

It is hard for the world to imagine that the empress, who is endlessly majestic in the early morning, is serving tea like a humble maid in her imperial study at this moment.

However, there are only so many people in the study, it is impossible for Luo Xianning to serve tea and pour water, after all, the person who came is a guest, not to mention that Chen Changsheng is also there.

The ivory polished cups are smooth and flawless, and between the rising mist, there is a refreshing fragrance of tea that spreads and escapes.

The position of Emperor Chu is more like a link between the major immortal sects and the mortal world, and it is also a vassal of the Immortal Sword Sect, governing and coordinating most of the cultivation families.

At this moment, Zhou Zongliang was still leading the ministers in the front hall, arranging many mundane policies.

And the aunt is obviously a hands-off shopkeeper, she is the emperor, in addition to wanting to drive the three families to worship, it is more to prepare for Si He to lay incense in the Chu State in the future.

Liu Zijing's gaze swept over Kong Yang and the three of them, and finally stopped at Zhao Qing, and said softly: "Songshan Fang is unrecognizable, and now the guest Qing and the female cultivator who are staying in Huashu Lane will be sent to Shouyun Mountain together." ”

"You can rebuild the Danxia Sect, which was originally built on the mountain, into Siyou City, and set up a bloody clothing merchant in it."

Zhao Qing's expression froze when he heard this, and the eyes of his aunt and Qinghuan flashed with incomprehension, but Shuyue was silent and waited for the following.

"That's where Cheng is in charge, should I ask?"

Zhao Qingsi said this.

According to the original intention of him and his aunt, it was just starting from Luniu County and gradually spreading incense.

But if you build a city directly under Shouyun Mountain, the steps are too big......

I saw Liu Zijing and Chen Bai looking at each other one after another, and said with a deep smile: "The Blood God Peak has made arrangements, and I will leave the Immortal Fang and go to Siyou City to settle down." ”

He then added: "Cheng Daoyou has already broken through the realm and asked me to bring back the original Danxia's mountain protection talisman. ”

A streamer of light flew out of his hand, hovering on the table, and it was a talisman with extremely restrained spiritual rhyme!

Through this talisman, you can indirectly control the prohibition of the corresponding formation......

Zhao Qing's eyes flickered, and he slowly picked up the teacup in his hand, realizing that something was not right.

At the same time, he sent a message to his aunt and Shuyue: "They have just returned from leaving the country, they should have discussed the matter of Si He, otherwise they would not have such a posture." ”

Obviously, although no one has mentioned Si He at the moment.

But this group of Yujing monks clearly came to lick Si He, and it was impossible for him to show favor to such a degree because he was destined for Qinglong.

Zhao Qing sighed secretly.

After all, have you eaten soft rice completely?

But Si He couldn't leave Shouyun Mountain at all......

Yin Hua rippled in his mind, and Si He's laughter came: "I can't get out, so let them all come in." ”

Zhao Qing: !?

The sword is off the rails, isn't it?

His heart sank, and he quietly put away the array talisman in front of him, and said with concern: "Senior Brother Liu has arrived at Shouyun Mountain, who will stay in the Changsheng Workshop?" ”

"After all, Senior Brother Shen is also living in Si You these days."

Zhao Qing said that he had mentioned the construction of the city, which could be regarded as a tacit acquiescence.

He is more concerned about Shen Mo's problem now, he can't spend a million spirit stones to hire a wage earner, and run away before he has been working for two days, right?

Isn't that a blood loss?

Shen Mo also showed a puzzled look, looked at Liu Zijing and said in a deep voice: "Why don't you transfer Senior Brother Wu who stayed in Qianyuan to Changshengfang?" ”

The shopkeeper Shen, who usually speaks little, is very shrewd, and directly said that he could catch an unlucky egg to top.

Let him go back to the Immortal Workshop, that is absolutely impossible.

After all, he hugged Niangniang's thighs first, why let them out?

Not to mention that the bloody clothes building of Changshengfang has been lost to Lu Qing, and it is not a small trouble to re-operate.

Zhao Qing seemed to look at his aunt unintentionally, and the two tacitly waited for Liu Zijing's response.

It was a real eye-opener for them.

Originally, I thought that the monks of Yujing should not lick dogs.

After all, for Zhao Qing, the future blood, Liu Zijing and Shen Mo have never been so active, and Bai Wanqiu only went to the Xiangji Sea to check Qinghuan's injuries......

Now it seems that it's not that people don't know how to lick, but they just don't think it's too low.

Now as soon as Si He made a move, Bai Wanqiu and Chen Changsheng sat directly in a row, waiting to speak, and even Cheng Yue sent Danxia's mountain protection ban......

Zhao Qing couldn't help but sigh secretly: "He, you are so fierce." ”

"Huh!?"

The white-haired girl looked indifferent, and stretched her delicate nasal voice very long.

Zhao Qing immediately changed his words: "Dad, you are so fierce!" ”

He had already realized that his family's original plan had already been slashed by Si He's sword...... Now we can only re-examine the situation and re-invent ourselves.

Liu Zijing pondered slightly: "Then let Senior Brother Wu go over, Changshengfang, as the first workshop in Chu State, gets a very high profit share every year, and it can be regarded as seeking some resources for Senior Brother Wu." ”

At this moment, Chen Changsheng slowly put down the cup and interjected: "Si You's construction of the city, just let the craftsmen of the imperial court rotate day and night, Xiaoyi don't forget it." ”

Zhao Qing: ??

Why do you need to say this?

Xiaoyi Xiaoyi is so close!

Zhou Xiaoyi's beautiful eyes smiled, and Ying Ying bent down: "Senior Brother Chen's orders, Xiaoyi keep them in mind." ”

Chen Changsheng chuckled and nodded.

"Si Yu has just established, and many cumbersome affairs in the sect are very familiar with Xianning."

"Xian Ning, you go back to the Immortal Sword today, burn some exercises from the Fa Hall and take them to Si You."

Luo Xian's face did not change, and the master had already told her about this.

She got up and took the jade pot to refill the tea for everyone: "Xian Ning has written it down." ”

Zhao Qing also stood up and saluted, and said respectfully: "Thank you Master Chen for taking care of you!" ”

"Hey!"

Chen Changsheng accepted the salute and got up with a sigh: "Chen originally thought that Xiaoyi was in charge of Si You, but he didn't want it to be Yue'er. ”

"That's fine."

Wang Shuyue raised her head respectfully and looked up at the man with a pretty face, indicating that she was listening carefully.

Chen Changsheng looked up and down at the delicate woman in front of him, his face became more and more heavy, and he vaguely felt regretful.

"Yue'er."

"The affairs of the sect are heavy, don't delay your cultivation, right now, for you, success in building a foundation is the top priority."

"In my opinion, let Xianning be an elder to help out."

"When the dust settles on Zhao Qing's many trivial matters, it will not be too late for you to devote yourself to developing the sect......

The man seemed to suddenly remember something, looked at Zhao Qing and asked, "Is Lu Qing's sword in your hand?" ”

Zhao Qing: ......

He chose to deceive face-to-face: "Shizun is still studying the sword intent in it, and it has not been passed down. ”

"Oh?"

Chen Changsheng's sword eyes condensed slightly, and he looked Zhao Qing up and down with a smile: "With Niangniang's means, this kind of tangible sword is like rotten wood, why study it?" ”

Zhao Qing was silent.

He didn't understand why Chen Changsheng could still lick a mouthful of Si He silky when he was pretending to be forced.

Si He chuckled and thought to himself: "He has seen Qin Chuxin and knows that I am walking with you." ”

The man shook his head and smiled, his figure gradually froze in the eyes of everyone, and the aura that was shaking around him also subsided, which was a sign that he was about to pass away.

"I once exchanged for a sword supernatural power in the Nine Swords Holy Land, but I have never been able to comprehend the true meaning of it."

"If Yue'er has time, she can ask Niangniang for advice on her behalf."

As soon as the words fell, Chen Changsheng's figure disappeared into the imperial study, and he left directly......

Zhao Qing looked strange, and the big guy spoke unfathomably.

Isn't it just a gift?

It's like 2580,000.

Liu Zijing and Bai Wanqiu looked at each other and smiled, knowing that it was absolutely impossible for Chen Changsheng to visit Shouyun Mountain.

He is the true emperor of the Chu State, and it is rare to achieve this level.

Luo Xianning's stay in Si You in the future is already Chen Changsheng's greatest show of favor and sincerity.

What's more, he is still Lu Qing's senior brother, and he is afraid that he will be angry when he goes to Shouyun Mountain, which will really outweigh the losses.

At this moment, it was finally Bai Wanqiu's turn to speak.

This Tianxiang Jindan nun didn't look for too many excuses, just jokingly: "I'm going to Si You to play these days, don't you feel embarrassed?" ”

Zhao Qingxin said I wish you were going......

"There is no need, even if Senior Sister Bai settles down in Shouyun Mountain, there is no problem at all."

……

It didn't take long for everyone to leave.

Luo Xianning wanted to go back to the Immortal Sword Sect to burn the exercises of the Dharma Hall.

Shen Mo also left with Liu Zijing and went to Changshengfang to deal with the reconstruction of the commercial building there.

Kong Yang and Bai Wanqiu were one step ahead of them and went to Shouyun Mountain together.

For a while, only Zhao Qing's family of four was left in the spacious imperial study.

The warm sun shines through the delicate carved windows, and the fine dust in the air is clearly visible.

The aunt paced slowly, picked up the porcelain in the stone cabinet and admired it.

"At first, I didn't think there was any help, but in the blink of an eye, there were three or five more foundation building monks......

Her beautiful eyes fanned and looked at Zhao Qing: "Qixiu and Dan Ghost will arrive in these two days, and we have to raise them first." ”

The aunt's mouth is raised, and naturally she gives them resources to stay in Shouyun Mountain.

Gu Qinghuan played with the ink jade seal, listened quietly on the side, and did not speak.

Shuyue pondered: "Xie Yihan, Miss Xiu, Li Dan ghost...... In addition to the Yujing monks, Si Youzong also has three foundations. ”

For the family, such a battle was unimaginable before.

But for a real sect, three or five foundation building is nothing at all.

Back then, Danxia was bullied by Sixiang to the doorstep, and there were still more than a dozen inner disciples supporting the scene...... Those are the foundation monks.

At this moment, a weak woman's voice came into the imperial study.

"Your Majesty, the meal in the imperial dining room is ready."

Zhao Qing's heart moved, and he looked at Shuyue and Qing Huan with a smile, he almost forgot that this palace was now his home.

The aunt glanced at him lightly and said coldly, "Dinner." ”

As her cold words came out, the door to the imperial study opened.

Two women with delicate faces stood behind the door, waiting to be dispatched.

In addition, more than a dozen girls rushed into the study in one go, completely ignoring the existence of Shuyue and Qinghuan, and there was no Zhao Qing in their eyes.

They were busy with each other, and someone put away the tea set on the wooden table and took it outside the study to be carefully cleaned.

Someone pulled the velvet table blanket and laid it flat on top of the table.

There was also a woman with red cheeks and stood quietly in front of her aunt in silence.

Zhou Xiaoyi raised her eyebrows lightly, handed the porcelain she was playing with to the maid, and put it back in its original position after the other party carefully wiped it.

In less than half a stick of incense, the maids not only cleaned the entire study, but also arranged the table, carpet and couch neatly, which happened to be four soft collapses, so that Zhao Qing's family could lie down and eat.

The curtains were covered by layers of gauze curtains, which darkened the study.

Next, there were women of outstanding appearance rushing in, everyone with their hands on their shoulders, and a neat jade plate on the shoulder.

As the dishes were placed one after another, Shuyue couldn't take her eyes off it......

On the seemingly small table, there are twenty-seven dishes!

Even the stacking of jade plates is full of artistic beauty, and the rich aroma instantly envelops the entire imperial study.

A woman stepped forward respectfully, took off the silver needle from each dish, and whispered, "The slave is waiting outside the door." ”

Obviously, she still has a certain status in the palace, and with a slight wave of her hand, all the maidservants have withdrawn from this place, and the door of the imperial study has also been closed from the outside......

Zhao Qing fell silent for a while.

He suddenly felt as if he had opened the door to a new world.

Qing Huan and Shu Yue looked at each other, and naturally had the same idea.

The aunt smiled slyly and said softly: "Take the imperial dining room back to Shouyun Mountain, you don't have to cook in the future." ”

It's not just that you don't have to cook...... I don't even need to wash the special bowls.

"This bamboo shoot can be burned so delicious!?" Shuyue puffed out her cheeks and muttered a vague voice.

Zhao Qing mended the knife on the side: "You can let Xiaoyi learn it, and burn it for us to eat in the future." ”

Zhou Xiaoyi gritted her silver teeth and wooed Qing Huan to join her front.

She said with a smile while serving Qing Huan with vegetables: "The imperial dining room has gathered the best chefs in the Chu State, even if it is an ordinary green kui, it should be able to develop dozens of different methods." ”

"In the future, two chefs will be arranged to cook the dishes that Huanhuan loves to eat."

Gu Qing smiled and did not speak, always quietly as a spectator.

The aunt turned to look at Zhao Qing and laughed: "I won't go back to Shouyun Mountain tonight." ”

"Xiaoqing, Yue'er, Huannu."

"You stay and sleep, and tomorrow you will follow me to the throne."

Zhao Qing: ???

You can call me Qing, but you can't say I'm small, Zhou Xiaoyi, you're dead.

Gu Qinghuan's phoenix eyes trembled slightly, and she said with a smile: "The slave and maid respectfully obey Your Majesty's instructions." ”

Between talking and laughing, the family is happy.

However, just as Zhao Qing was thinking about how to punish the empress, an unfamiliar divine consciousness sound sounded in his ears.

"Come with me?"

Zhao Qing's expression moved slightly, and he was deeply surprised.

He reached out in confusion and found a man in the very distant front hall...... He was sitting in the dragon chair at the moment with his eyes closed.

is the real father of my aunt - Zhou Zongliang!

Is it finally time to get on the line......

Zhao Qing thought about it for a while, he didn't know much about this father-in-law, and he had only heard a few words from his aunt.

But it was someone's daughter who slept anyway, he didn't hesitate much, and his divine sense responded: "Okay! ”

At this moment, Zhao Qing slowly put down the bamboo chopsticks in his hand and looked at his aunt: "Father-in-law wants to see me, you will wander around the palace for a long time first." ”

As soon as these words came out, Zhou Xiaoyi frowned, as if she was a little unexpected.

Shuyue nodded lightly: "Husband, let's go." ”

……

Zhao Qing left the imperial study alone and walked to the Golden Palace of the Front Palace.

At the same time, he was also thinking about how to deal with this father-in-law who was a little estranged from Xiaoyi.

Although he had the experience of visiting Li Qingci before, he was still a little apprehensive when it came to the end.

After all, Qinghuan's family and my aunt's family are different.

And this Zhou Zongliang is not a country man - he is a court zaifu, and he is also a foundation building monk.

Whether it is in the ordinary world or in the cultivation world, it cannot be called a weak person......

Soon, he saw the oncoming young man.

Zhou Zongliang was dressed in a plain robe, holding a golden silk folding fan in his hand, and chuckled: "First meeting, Zhou Zongliang." ”

Zhao Qing held the junior salute: "Zhao Qing has seen his father-in-law. ”

To be honest, he was a little awkward.

My aunt's parents were both monks, and the years had barely left the slightest mark on this man.

And...... I have to admit that Zhou Zongliang looks more handsome than himself, and he can be called as a jade and a son.

Xiaoyi's excellent appearance is largely due to the man in front of her.

Zhou Zongliang bowed slightly, and naturally played with the folding fan: "You haven't been to the imperial city yet, have you?" ”

"Let's go out for a walk."

A carriage traveled freely through the vast palace, and the scholar driving the carriage was actually a monk who practiced the ninth level of qi.

The scholar bowed down to the two of them: "Father-in-law, brother." ”

Zhao Qing's mind moved slightly, knowing that this was Zhou Zongliang's righteous son.

He leaned sideways and looked at the man with a smile: "Father-in-law, please." ”

……

When both of them were in the carriage, the scholar regained his grip on the reins.

In the middle of the carriage, the man's warm laughter came: "Go to the Teaching Division." ”
