"Lord?"

Qin Yu saw Jiang Yao's expression was a little strange and seemed to be distracted, so he couldn't help but call him "Jiang Yao."

"Oh." Jiang Yao came back to his senses, "Zi Zhou, please continue."

Qin Yu continued: "Pan Kang, the crown prince of Chu, wants to marry Fairy Luo as his princess, so as to form an alliance with the human race and jointly fight against the three great powers of Qing, Liang and Qi."

"Emperor Pan Ding of Chu wanted Pan Kang to marry Fairy Zhen Clan Bing or Fairy Li Clan Xi, but Pan Kang didn't want to. He was interested in Fairy Yaogong Luo."

Qin Yu looked a little weird when he mentioned Zhen Jiubing. Because Zhen Jiubing was his decision now.

Hearing this, Jiang Yao couldn't help but feel guilty, "Zizhou means that Pankang has the final say in this matter, so he still decided on my Luoer as the candidate?"

Qin Yu said: "That's almost it. However, the Yaodao Shrine has announced its support for Yu Kuang. Yu Kuang will soon forcibly found a country and become emperor. Will she give up a genius like Luo Xianzi and go to the Chu Kingdom?"

"As the Taoist disciple of Yaogong, Fairy Luo, even if she is willing to marry Pankang as the crown princess, but if Kuan Lazi refuses to let her go, the marriage will be difficult to succeed."

Jiang Yao was speechless, "Then, what is Pankang's next plan? He won't directly send someone to the Central Region to propose marriage, right?"

"It's not that far yet." Qin Yu shook his head, "If Yaogong doesn't agree, Fairy Luo doesn't want to, and Yan Lazi interferes, then how can he lose face?"

"He just expressed his attitude and spread the news that he is interested in Fairy Luo of Shenzhou and wants to marry and form an alliance with Shenzhou. In fact, he is releasing his goodwill. This is the first level of meaning, and the lord must be well aware of it."

"The second thing is to let Fairy Luo be mentally prepared and expectant. Then when the time is right and the marriage is successful, it won't be too late for him to formally propose marriage."

Jiang Yao immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

Well, Pankang was very smart and handled matters very appropriately. He did not come directly to propose marriage, but only deliberately spread rumors to show his attitude.

Qin Yu smiled and said, "However, although Chu State has no intention of proposing marriage immediately, it has already begun to show goodwill."

"Pankang is going to entrust Li Xi to act as a matchmaker for the envoy. He has prepared a generous gift and is going to the Central Region to give it to Fairy Luo. This is a way to stand in front of him and test his attitude. He is very sincere."

"Oh?" Jiang Yao also smiled, "Then this generous gift should be quite heavy."

Qin Yu nodded, "Who says it's not the case? Even my sister was envious when she heard about it. She said that if she could marry Pankang, her wish would be fulfilled, not to mention the generous gifts. It's a pity that Pankang can't marry her."

"Pan has been famous for his wealth since ancient times. Pan Kang's generous gift, even if it is just a test, is definitely not trivial."

"My lord, Fairy Luo is your niece. For such a big event, she should ask about my lord's attitude, right?"

"If she is willing to marry Pankang, it will be a good thing for our Ming Dynasty. If she blows the pillow, she can get a lot of help."

"Ahem." Jiang Yao coughed twice, shook his head and smiled bitterly, "How can I be her master? Not even my master, Master Li, can control her. She can only decide whether she wants to marry or not."

Qin Yu was astute and immediately sensed that his lord did not want to talk about the matter, so he changed the topic.

"My lord, the masters of the divine religion who know the art of war selected last time have all been arranged to march into the army and serve as generals at all levels. The seven martial saints are all ten thousand leaders."

"Our Ming army now has seven martial saints. Although the number of soldiers is small, the generals' cultivation and configuration are high, and they are the best in the world."

Jiang Yao was very satisfied, "You must make good arrangements for these powerful men of the divine religion, especially the resources and caves, and don't be stingy."

Although the Ming army now only has a few hundred thousand Wu Zun soldiers and 10,000 to 20,000 Wuzong soldiers, there are already seven Wu Sheng generals in the army.

The Wan Changs with the lowest cultivation level are all quasi-sage strong men. Many Qian Changs are martial immortal generals.

With the human resources of the divine sect, the generals of the Ming army are now low-ranking and highly qualified.

Among the Chu and Qing armies, generals with holy level cultivation should at least serve as generals commanding tens of thousands of foundation-building soldiers.

However, in the Ming army, generals with holy level cultivation only served as ten thousand commanders.

"Zizhou, I will leave this important military matter and reform to you, the monk Shuling Shangxuan. Next, I will go into seclusion and practice." Jiang Yao said.

Qin Yu said: "My lord, practicing in seclusion is not only my lord's personal path, but also affects the destiny of our country. It is of course the top priority. My lord, just rest assured and practice, and the state affairs will be taken care of by your own ministers."

Jiang Yao was very satisfied with Qin Yu. Ever since he had Qin Yu's help, he had become much more relaxed, and the great cause of reform and military training had not fallen behind at all.

This Zhongshu Ling is indeed very powerful.

The central institutions and local county and county institutions of the Ming Dynasty were already very mature. As long as there was no chaos at the top, they could function well.

In today's Ming Dynasty, a large number of officials from poor families who came from Mingshan Academy filled the courts and counties, and firmly controlled power.

All resources previously monopolized by the martial nobles were nationalized.

The income of the poor families has greatly increased, and they are less and less dependent on the court's resource subsidies. Because the resource situation of the poor families has improved, more and more monks from the poor families have improved their cultivation.

This makes the average cultivation level of monks in the Ming Kingdom almost reaching the early stage of foundation building!

Once the average national cultivation level reaches the early stage of foundation building, it will be a terrible breakthrough.

As for the Ming army's hundreds of thousands of foundation-building troops, more and more soldiers broke through to Jindan (Wuzong) and were assigned to Wuzong's army (Jindan army).

The reform finally released huge power and promoted the Ming army to become a powerful army in the world!

The monarch and his ministers discussed secretly for a long time, and then Zhongshu ordered Qin Yucai to say goodbye and leave.

Jiang Yao went directly to see Biluo Xuanji.

Biluo Xuanji is practicing in a secret cave in a palace.

"Senior sister, I have something to tell you." Jiang Yao directly told Pan Kang about his marriage to Fairy Luo.

"Senior sister, how should I solve this matter?" Jiang Yao was in a dilemma, "Of course I won't agree. I feel so uneasy. If Luoer becomes independent, will he blame me?"

Bi Luo Xuanji poured a cup of tea for Jiang Yao, "I also encountered this problem back then. At that time, I was not independent yet. Someone wanted to become a Taoist companion with me."

"Do you know what I, uh, what you did in your previous life? My father adopted a tactic of dragging his feet. He was ambiguous and non-committal."

"No matter what the other party is like, just find reasons to delay. Don't refuse or agree. Keep delaying until you are independent."

"If you agree, then if she doesn't agree after becoming independent, her Taoist heart will be damaged. If you don't agree, then if she becomes independent and regrets it, her Taoist heart will also be damaged."

When Bi Luo Xuanji said this, he couldn't help but smile like a veteran.

"I know you want to refuse, because you are me and a man, and she has no sense of independence. But can you guarantee that she will refuse after becoming independent?"

"How do you know she doesn't want to be the crown princess?"

"So, just wait until she has independent consciousness and body, and then let her make her own decision."

Jiang Yao sighed, "I know, that is to say, I still want to act. Those who don't know, think that I am attracted by Pan Kang's generous gift."

Bi Luo smiled mysteriously, "Isn't it? You should accept the gift for your daughter. If she is unwilling at that time, you can just return the gift. Isn't this difficult to handle?"

"Actually, since you came to ask for my opinion instead of rejecting it outright, it means that her consciousness is already affecting you."

Jiang Yao's face looked a little ugly, "You mean..."

Bi Luo Xuanji nodded, "Yes. At least it shows that her conscious personality has a good impression of Pankang, which you may not have noticed consciously. At the very least, she does not hate Pankang at all."

"If her personality hates Pankang, she won't embarrass you at all, and you won't ask me what to do."

"I'll go." Jiang Yao felt bad, "So, is it really possible for her to get married after she becomes independent?"

"Can't marry?" Bi Luo Xuanji was a little dissatisfied, "If I didn't marry back then, would there still be a Bi Luo family?"

"My father is too powerful. He has been... uh, his "Illusion" is the creation of the magical power of creation under the sect of Xuan Ni in the depths of the black abyss! You can only practice it by yourself."

"So, "Huan" originally has the charm of the Tao of Xuan Ni. In other words, one Qi transforms the three pure things, and the three pure things transform all things."

"Your three avatars were actually born of you and nurtured by your will. They are like trees that breed trees and are not your true self. Since they are not your true self, they have never been you. Why do you have to worry about it?"

"My father's original intention in creating this technique was to create three helpers who are absolutely loyal and will never betray."

"Since the original purpose is to cultivate helpers, of course it is not who I am. Luo'er is not you, so don't embarrass her or make decisions for her."

The ginger medicine was finally relieved.

Well, then, can I accept the gift with a clear conscience?

Okay. Luo'er, I'll keep it for you first.

………

Central Territory, Divine Palace and Heavenly City, Sword Gate.

As one of the top forces in the Divine Continent, Jianmen has always been the holy land for sword cultivators in the world.

At this time, in the sword womb, there was a young man in his forties, sitting in the sword tomb with his eyes closed, his eyes indifferent and his demeanor noble.

In the sword tomb, there were all incomplete swords filled with sword intent and full of sword energy. However, there was no trace of sharpness in this young man, and instead he seemed to have no edge.

"Here comes the sword." Suddenly the young man opened his mouth and stretched out his hand.

Just gently, naturally and casually.

The sword energy in the entire sword tomb suddenly disappeared and was gone.

At the same time, a sword that could only be perceived with soul thoughts appeared in the young man's hand.

The young man held an invisible sword and slashed out with a slanted sword.

In an instant, a shocking sword intent emerged out of thin air, as if it was going to cut through the void and pierce the sky. All the sharp edges between heaven and earth were absorbed by this sword. The wonderful meaning of the sword was so great that it could be achieved with one sword.

And this terrifying sword intention came and went as quickly as it came, as if the young man could control it easily while hesitating in his thoughts.

So strong!

What a strong sword!

This sword was obviously thrown by a young man in the middle stage of Sword Immortal, but even an ordinary quasi-sage powerhouse could not catch it.
