Chapter 447 The medicine palace is full of flowers, and it is known that the beauty is coming.
"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 chose Fairy Yaogong Luo instead."
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 Kuan will soon forcibly establish 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 meaning, and the lord must be well aware of it."
"The second thing is to let Fairy Luo be mentally prepared and expect it. 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, let alone the generous gifts. It's a pity that Pankang can't marry her."
"The Pan family has been famous throughout the world for being rich and wealthy since ancient times. Even if Pan Kang's generous gift is just a test, it is definitely not a trivial matter."
"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, all the divine masters who know the art of war selected last time have been arranged to march into the army and serve as generals at all levels. All seven martial saints are 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 must 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 Order 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 Xuanmen 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.
This young man is, of course, the famous Shenzhou swordsman in recent years: Xu Erlang.
Over the years, as Xu Erlang's sword heart power quickly awakened, his terrifying strength was also quickly restored and unlocked.
His reputation has surpassed that of "older generation" young masters such as Xuan Song, Zhen Jiubing, Mo Yin, Mu Yue, and Li Xi.
Directly pursue Yu Kuan, Jiang Yao, and Kuan Xianzi.
Xu Erlang stood up, his figure was like a sword, and his expression was indifferent. He was wearing an extremely well-tailored black sword uniform, and did not wear any jade pendants or accessories.
Even the hair is just tied back casually.
However, he always has a sword on his waist.
Many people know that Xu Erlang's sword is on his waist and he never puts the ring on it.
Therefore, when his sword penetrates someone else's body, someone else's magic weapon may not have time to release the ring.
However, although Xu Erlang is a world-recognized swordsman wizard, he is also a weirdo.
Because he has a famous saying.
"My swordsmanship is only to protect the master's safety and happiness. The master is what my swordsmanship relies on."
He claimed to be the sword slave of Fairy Luo, and was secretly called "Luo Sword Slave".
But when Xu Erlang learned that he was nicknamed "Luo Jiannu", not only was he not angry, he was also happy with it.
Obsession is as strong as the sky, this is it.
Xu Erlang walked out of the Sword Palace and looked at the white clouds in the sky, with a distant, indifferent expression.
There seemed to be nothing in his eyes, yet they seemed to encompass everything.
"Master Jianzi."
A swordsman in green came with his sword in hand and said, "Master Jianzi, Fairy Luo has returned to the Medicine Palace."
What?
The master has returned to the Medicine Palace?
The master has not returned to the Medicine Palace for several years.
He has not seen his master for two thousand and twelve days.
Owner!
Xu Erlang's indifferent eyes suddenly became bright and bright, as bright as stars.
Under the sudden joy, a sword intent passed across the spiritual platform, mysterious and mysterious, ethereal.
Xu Erlang immediately caught this trace of swordsmanship, pulled out the sword from his waist, and slashed out with one stroke.
The white clouds in the sky suddenly turned blood red, as bright as the morning glow, falling in colorful colors, and the pink snow was vast, which was spectacular!
"what happened?"
"This vision in the sky..."
"It's Xingtian's Slash! Jianzi has understood Xingtian's Slash!"
"Really? That's the art of swordsmanship that only a sword master can understand."
"Look, Jianzi has made a breakthrough again. He is already in the late stage of Sword Immortal!"
"What? What on earth is going on? Jianzi has just broken through to the middle stage of Sword Immortal not long ago."
"What's going on? Ha, Jianzi heard that his master Luo Xianzi was back. He was so happy that he realized the Xingtian Slash and broke through. It's that simple."
"emmm..."
"..."
At this time, Xu Erlang, who suddenly understood the "Xingtian's Slash" due to his joyful heart and enlightened Taoist mind, and reached the late stage of Sword Immortal, hurriedly left the palace regardless of the opinions of everyone in the Sword Sect.
Go straight to the Medicine Path Shrine.
Owner!
…
The Medicine and Way Shrine, which is like a fairy palace and a divine city, is now intoxicated by the fragrance of medicine and the flowers are in full bloom, as if they are welcoming Lord Daozi, who has not returned for several years.
The flowers in the Medicine Palace are blooming, and I know that a beauty has arrived.
Fairy Luo is dressed in jade-colored palace attire, with her hair held high in clouds, a jingle ring, and lotuses sprouting at every step.
The girl is as beautiful as a spring mountain, and her eyes are like autumn water. The bright red and eye-catching plum blossom on her snowy forehead is particularly eye-catching, adding an ethereal and noble fairy charm, making the already fairy-like Fairy Luo seem to
goddess.
"Lord Daozi is already a quasi-sage and medicine saint!"
How amazing! Daozi is not even fifty yet. At such a young age, he is already a quasi-sage and medicine saint. This qualification is truly astonishing."
Even a group of old people in the Yaodao Shrine, such as the former Taoist Master Dan Xizi, the Master of Qingmu Palace Liu Palace, and others were all surprised.
Daozi's progress is really too great. Such a beautiful girl from heaven seems to be even more generous than Yu Yan.
"This junior has met Lord Danxi." Fairy Luo entered the palace with a spring breeze on her face, bringing with her a scene of youth.
"I've seen Daozi." The pharmacists around him bowed their hands and saluted.
"Luo'er, it's good that you come back. Now that something big is about to happen in the Central Territory, it's just the right time for you to come back." Dan Xizi, who replaced Li Shizhen as Taoist master, said.
Dan Xizi was originally the Taoist master, but later, for unknown reasons, he gave way to Li Shizhen. However, Li Shizhen rarely returned to the Medicine Palace, so Dan Xizi was actually the Taoist master.
He has only become an acting Taoist in name only, so his prestige is still very high.
"Uncle Danxi, I came back just for the matter of Yu Kan proclaiming himself emperor." Of course Fairy Luo knew what the so-called big event was.
She directly entered the Tianyao Pavilion under the astonished eyes of thousands of pharmacists and began to discuss matters.
Tianyao Pavilion is the highest meeting place in the Medicine Palace, and only the Palace Master or above and the Saint level are eligible to participate.
There are more than a dozen medicine sages, all of whom have profound Taoist charms and dense medicinal charms.
Luo Xianzi is ranked below Danxizi and above all the palace masters. Her status is very respected, second only to Danxizi.
"Uncle Master, the dramatic changes in Shenzhou are getting more and more intense. Our Medicine Palace will definitely not be able to stay out of the situation and must make a difference." Fairy Luo said straight to the point.
"When a big war breaks out, the resource of spiritual jade becomes extremely important. I would like to ask my uncle, how many resources do we have in the treasure house of the Medicine Palace now?"
Dan Xizi had no doubts and answered directly: "There are three medicine palace treasure troves, and the most important resource is the elixir, which accounts for 40% of the value of the treasure house's resources."
"The second is real materials, magic weapons, talismans and other items, accounting for 30%."
"The next most important thing is spiritual jade, which accounts for 20% of the value, more than 450 billion..."
When Fairy Luo heard this, she was a little excited.
She had always thought that the amount of spiritual jade in the Medicine Palace was only over 100 billion.
Now I know that the more than 100 billion is just one of the treasure houses. The real spiritual jade reserve of the Medicine Palace is 450 billion!
Such a huge amount of spiritual jade only accounts for 20% of the resource value of the treasure house!
Then the total resource value of the three treasure houses is more than 2 trillion.
very scary.
However, the Yaodao Shrine has gathered such huge resources, can they be used up?
There’s simply no way to use it up!
Massive resources have been quietly lying in the treasure house and sleeping for many years, and there is no way to spend them all.
However, the vast majority of casual cultivators are too poor to live in caves and have no resources to practice, so they have been unable to achieve breakthroughs in their cultivation.
The value of the Yaodao Shrine seems to have become a money-making machine that monopolizes resources.
Moreover, the resources of more than 2 trillion yuan are only liquid resources in the three major treasure houses. There are also a large number of medicinal gardens, mines, land, commercial buildings... which are even more valuable!
Fairy Luo said: "It turns out that our Medicine Palace has so many resources. So when Yu Kan becomes emperor, will he ask for contributions from the Medicine Palace?"
Dan Xizi nodded, "That's for sure. Since Yaogong wants to support her becoming emperor and establishing a country, of course she can't just express it verbally. Yaogong plans to contribute 100 billion in spiritual jade and 100 billion worth of elixirs."
So bold!
When Fairy Luo heard this number, she was a little jealous of Yu Yan.
"Junior and Yu Kuan have a good personal relationship, and I completely agree." The girl said with a hint of something in her words.
Danxizi indeed said:
"Well, you are Daozi. These three treasures are given to you for safekeeping. How to assist Yu Kuan is also left to you. The resources you contribute will be used from the treasure house under your control."
After saying that, with a wave of his hand, a bunch of array key magic weapons were sacrificed and flew to Fairy Luo.
When Fairy Luo saw this bunch of array key magic weapons, she pretended to be calm as usual. She took the array key magic weapon unhurriedly and said, "Junior, take your orders."
Don't say thank you, but take orders.
The girl was secretly happy at this moment and couldn't help but think of a sentence: The mouse fell into the secret vat.
What does it mean to get this array key?
This means that she will be completely in charge of the use of a treasure house. Before being discovered by Yaogong, she could have misappropriated all the contents of this treasure house without any problem.
Why would Fairy Luo care about the major events of the Medicine Dao Shrine? She had obtained the control of a treasure house, her goal had been achieved, and she immediately no longer wanted to talk about it.
Danxizi was concerned about what benefits the Yaodao Shrine could gain from Yu Kuang's founding of the country.
The Medicine Palace hoped to obtain the power of medicine administrator in the new dynasty, not only the power of medicine administrator of the central government, but also the power of medicine administrator of various states and counties.
There are medicinal yam gardens, alchemy houses, pharmacists, medical clinics, medicinal materials, medicine slaves, etc. all over the country. The Medicine Palace wants to use the Xin Dynasty to intervene.
Fairy Luo showed little interest in this, but could only pretend to deal with it, seeming to be very concerned about the future of Yao Palace.
But in fact, she was more concerned about when Li Xi would come with Pan Kang's gift.
After perfunctoryly attending the Tianyao Pavilion meeting, Fairy Luo received the report.
Jianmen Jianzi, Xu Erlang asked to see him.
"Invite him to meet me in the Dao Palace!" Fairy Luo smiled immediately when she heard Xu Erlang's visit.
Soon, Xu Erlang arrived at the Taoist palace.
Arriving at the gate of the palace, Xu Jianzi, who was rumored to be inseparable from the sword, actually took off the sword from his waist!
He solemnly said to the Medicine Sage at the entrance of the palace: "I enter the palace to pay homage to the master. I dare not go up to the palace with my sword."
Then he untied the sword and prepared to hand it to the medicine man.
However--
"Wait a minute!" A moving voice sounded like beads falling on a jade plate, and then a dazzling beauty walked out of the palace.
"Master..." Xu Erlang suddenly became excited when he saw this beautiful figure, as if he were seeing a long-lost relative.
The master has come to greet me!
"Slave Xu Erlang, meet your master!" Xu Erlang's voice was trembling a little.
At this moment, he looked respectful and happy, but how could he look like the noble and indifferent Master Jianzi?
If he is in the cold winter, then the master is the sun. Only the master's light can make him feel warmth.
Over the past ten years, he has gone from a poor boy in a remote mountain village to the swordsman he is today, all because of his master.
The reason why his sword heart can be awakened is because of his master.
"Erlang, why did you give up your sword and enter the palace?" Fairy Luo said with a smile, "You are a swordsman, and you are qualified to carry a sword anywhere."
"Pick up your sword. With the sword in your hand, you can go to the end of the world, let alone a palace. A swordsman must never leave his sword."
When Xu Erlang heard this, he was so moved that he almost shed tears.
"Yes! The master's words are so shocking that they have won the slave's ten years of hard training. I will remember this in my heart and will never leave my body with my sword from now on."
Fairy Luo frowned, "Erlang, how many times have I told you not to call yourself a slave in front of me? Why can't you change your mind?"
"Don't call yourself a slave anymore. You are a swordsman."
Xu Erlang said respectfully: "Yes, Master, although this slave is a swordsman, she is also Master's sword slave. This slave only practices swordsmanship for the sake of Master."
Sword slave…
Fairy Luo was speechless and could only roll her eyes helplessly.
"Okay Erlang, I know you are loyal, but I'm really not used to you calling yourself a slave. If you don't know, you think I control you. Your master must have checked your soul, right?"
"In this case, you'd better submit yourself. I can barely accept it, so you don't have to be too aggrieved."
"Yes, slave... I just listen to my master." Xu Erlang did not dare to go against his master's wishes again.
"Come in, I have something for you." Fairy Luo said and went directly into the palace.
Xu Erlang followed closely.
Luo Xianzi sat down on Daozi's seat, while Xu Erlang stood at one side holding his sword.
Luo Xianzi was both helpless and moved.
"This is for you." Fairy Luo took out a ring and handed it to Xu Erlang.
Inside are spiritual Gu and a Taoist Wonderful Fruit.
Although Xu Erlang was hopelessly loyal to Fairy Luo, Fairy Luo could not say much about how kind she was to this "sword slave".
Xu Erlang didn't open the ring at all. Not to mention that the master gave it a treasure, even if he gave it a piece of grass, it was still a gift from the master, and it was extremely precious.
But before the master and servant could say a few words, a familiar voice suddenly sounded outside the hall, which was very clear and sweet.
"Hey, Junior Sister Luo, why can't I leave the palace to greet my old friend when he comes here?"
It's Li Xi!
Is she here to give gifts to Pan Kang and act as a matchmaker?
Fairy Luo was suddenly shocked.
PS: I am not a pastoral feminist, and I will never box. The character Xu Erlang does not mean that I am YY feminism. I am an egalitarian. I understand. Good evening.
