Xuanyan Immortal Dynasty, Xuanfeng City, the ancient imperial capital.
To the north is a large lake, with two mountain ranges to the east and west like two swimming dragons supporting each other. To the south is an endless plain with fertile land and rich products. Countless cities are dotted among it, with luxuriant people, health and tranquility.
Xuanfeng City is a U-shaped city.
The smallest entrance, the surrounding walls are no more than ten feet high. Inside is the imperial city where the emperor lives and attends court meetings.
The largest entrance is surrounded by walls thirty feet high. Countless dignitaries and noble families live here.
Outside the largest entrance, there are criss-crossed streets, scattered neighborhoods, and pavilions and houses stretching for hundreds of miles. This area of the city without city walls is home to wealthy businessmen and wealthy businessmen.
Today, in the huge Xuanfeng City, countless officials and citizens are frantically spreading a piece of news.
Emperor Cang Moxuan issued an imperial edict to the world. Princess Xuanqi of Yunjiu, who was kind-hearted, virtuous, intelligent, wise, loyal, courageous, diligent, benevolent and filial, guarded the Black Yanwei partial division, supervised the king's division in the imperial court, punished the people and saved Yan.
The people of the dynasty were hanging upside down. After a successful battle, they took over 200,000 li from Yan Chaobai and 3.8 million li from the sixty-two small vassal countries...
The Ninth Princess Xuan Qi's heart is commendable, her actions are commendable, and her achievements are a model for all the clans and ministers of the Xuan Yan Immortal Dynasty.
Therefore, the ninth princess Xuan Qi was granted the title of "Princess Tianwu", and the sacred land of one prefecture and three counties, 180,000 miles across and 120,000 miles in length, 120,000 miles southwest of Xuanfeng City was granted as a fief.
As soon as this imperial edict was issued, the civil and military officials in the court were all over the place, and countless people who heard the news went crazy.
In the history of the Xuanyan Immortal Dynasty, a queen appeared.
But those queens all successfully ascended the throne because of the drama of 'Palace Fighting', gained the appreciation of their ancestors, or had the support of the big shots in Canghai Tower.
In the history of the Xuanyan Immortal Dynasty, there had never been any queen who could personally lead an army to expand territory like Xuanyi.
The title of 'Tianwu' is so noble. With this title, all of Xuan Qi's other brothers and sisters were trampled under his feet. Not to mention that the other princes and princesses were still working hard in their own mansions.
It was hard to survive on a little salary or even financial assistance from his mother's family, but Xuan Xi had already obtained a fief that stretched over hundreds of thousands of miles!
In particular, that land is only 120,000 miles away from Xuanfeng City, and is the most fertile and densely populated territory in the southwest.
The name of that state is "Yu", and the names of the three counties are "Baiyu", "Qingjue" and "Chijue".
Just by looking at the names of the three counties in one state, you can tell how rich this territory is.
Not to mention anything else, let’s just say that in this territory, a hundred years ago, the imperial court counted the household registrations of the people. It was found that there were nearly 10 billion people in the three counties of this state. But now, a hundred years have passed, and the population of the people in the three counties of this state will only increase.
many.
How much tax can be collected from such a large territory every year?
With Xuan Xi's personality, are her Black Swallow Guards likely to start a round of crazy expansion?
Under the cover of the shocking news that Xuan Qi was named 'Princess Tianwu', the news that the eldest prince Xuan Yi was ordered to 'study behind closed doors for a year' because of his 'misbehavior' and 'impetuousness' seemed less important.
.
However, someone helped him become famous.
Originally, Xuan Yi's reputation in Xuanfeng City was not very good.
As the eldest prince, his mother is also the Queen of the West Palace among the two queens of Cang Mo Xuan Palace. Her mother is the legitimate daughter of the Wu family, a powerful family in Canghailou. With such a noble background, Xuan Yi is a bit of a "cunning and plundering" in Xuanfeng City.'
The reputation of competing with the people for profit.
Especially Fengyue Ye from Xuanfeng City regards Xuan Yi as the biggest sufferer.
This guy likes to take his lackeys, hawks and dogs, to various brothels and boats, but every time he sees valuables such as courtesans, courtesans, and other valuables that he has worked so hard to train, he will throw away three melons and two dates and force him to do so.
Bring the beautiful woman who has been trained by others back to your own mansion.
Those who can run Fengyue in Xuanfeng City have big backers and backstage behind them.
Although these backers and backers could not do anything to Xuan Yi...but the news that Xuan Yi was ordered to study behind closed doors really made these backers and backers who had suffered losses at Xuan Yi's hands overjoyed.
Therefore, the news of Xuan Yi's punishment suddenly brewed and broke out after Xuan Qi was banned by Princess Feng Tianwu. It spread throughout Xuanfeng City in a very short time, and then spread throughout Xuanfeng City at a speed several times faster than the spread of the plague.
For most of the Xuanyan Immortal Dynasty.
When Xuan Yi heard that his scandal had been spread, his study was immediately smashed to pieces.
The little eunuchs and maids beside Xuanyi heard that Xuanyi was greeting a "monk" named "Fahai" at the top of his lungs, swearing that he would not die well.
And Xuan Yi's mother, Wu Qingmo, who was born in the Wu clan of Canghai Tower, heard that her son was arranged in this way in the market... In her palace, the rare and expensive furnishings, many rare porcelains with great age, etc. were all poured with blood.
Damn it, she smashed everything to pieces.
There was also the eunuch next to Wu Qingmo. The palace maid could hear that she was hysterically cursing a certain "little bitch" named "Cang Jiu'er", and at the same time she was greeting the "shameless child" born to this "little bitch"
's little bitch'.
They even heard that Wu Qingmo swore that he would let certain 'shameless and sinister bitches' know how powerful he was.
Afterwards, Wu Qingmo hurried to find Cang Moxuan. It is said that he hugged Cang Moxuan's calf and cried bitterly, telling how his precious son Xuanyi was "humble and gentle, loyal and filial to friends, courteous and virtuous, and diligent and hardworking".
She swore to Cang Moxuan that her son must have been 'framed' by someone.
Not long after, gossip in the imperial city came out.
It is said that at a certain time of a certain month of a certain year, Empress Wu Qingmo of the West Palace, with a huge slap mark on her face, left the inner study where the emperor handled government affairs, shouting and cursing all the way. In the next three days, she frequently condemned the eunuchs around her.
, the palace maid, killed nearly a hundred people with a stick in succession.
In the next few days, the dignitaries who were not blind or deaf in Xuanfeng City noticed that some powerful people from the Canghai Tower and Wu clan in Xuanfeng City began to have a big cocktail party with their friends.
Many monsters and monsters were like flies smelling blood, constantly gathering around them.
Many thoughtful people started laughing.
Come on, the royal family is about to start a big drama again. Everyone, hurry up and prepare snacks and tea, ready to watch the show?
There are those who are timid and love to cause trouble, why don't they prepare in advance and add fuel to the flames?
The various disturbances in Xuanfeng City have nothing to do with Lu Qian.
At this moment, Lu Qian was studying Feng Shui and was busy chasing dragons and tapping acupuncture points.
After helping Xuan Qi so much, such a huge contribution was thrown to her out of thin air, so naturally she should be rewarded.
Of course, Lu Qian is now the dual national advisor of Qingyun Kingdom and Xu Dynasty, with a high and powerful position, which is extraordinary.
However, it is obviously impossible for him to seek the same status in the Xuanyan Immortal Dynasty. The Xuanyan Immortal Dynasty has a strong foundation and is very powerful. A mere monk at the Golden Lotus Realm is just an ordinary person in the court.
If you want to become a "big official", you lack the qualifications to become an "important minister".
If you want to become the ‘National Master’ of the Xuanyan Immortal Dynasty, you must at least break through the realm of ‘Illuminating the Void’?
Moreover, it cannot be an ordinary 'Illuminating the Void' realm, it must be the pinnacle of the 'Illuminating the Void' realm, the ultimate cultivation level, preferably the ability of the 'Half-Step Heavenly Realm', and a unique skill,
Only with unique skills and magical powers that other monks of the same realm cannot match, can you sit in this position with peace of mind!
Therefore, Lu Qian is now just a guest of Princess Tianwu Xuan Xi, and of course he has a special status among her guests.
What was so special was that Xuan Qi allowed him to randomly select a piece of land three thousand miles long and wide in the fiefdom he had just obtained, open a mountain gate, build a temple, and at the same time open the mountain gate widely to recruit disciples.
When Xuan Qi opened his mouth, Lu Qian would certainly not be polite.
In the past few days, Lu Qian had already walked around Xuan Qi's fiefdom twice, and finally settled on a good location in the west of Yuzhou.
This area, in the north, northwest, and northeast directions, is a small branch of the "Minshan" mountain range in the west of Yuzhou. The peaks are like screens, gently embracing a fertile plain with a radius of thousands of miles.
The area of this plain is about the same size as the land Xuanyi promised to Lu Qian.
To the south of the roughly fan-shaped plain, a large river with a width of more than ten miles meanders through. The water is soft, deep and clear. There is no drought or flood, and the land on both sides of the river is nourished.
Lu Qian used Buddhist Dharma eyes to trace the direction of the underground spiritual veins, and found that there was an excellent Feng Shui treasure land at the foot of a small branch of Minshan Mountain in the northernmost part of the plain.
The soil here is rich, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth is extremely active and rich, and the Taoist charm is flexible and graceful. It is a paradise of caves and heavens, which can become an excellent cultivation resort. If it is combined with Lu Qian's Five Elements Feng Shui formation, I really don't know what it can evolve into.
'Holy land', 'fairy land'.
However, in this geomantic treasure land, there is already a large-scale manor, with a radius of hundreds of miles, and it is the private property of the manor owner.
The sharp chirping of the big black swallows resounded throughout the world, and ten thousand black swallow guards were hovering in the sky. Their huge wingspans were like dark clouds, shrouding the manor.
Under Lu Qian's command, 30,000 Taoist monks who had already formed formed a Buddhist formation, and marched forward with rumbling steps toward the manor where a defensive formation was raised.
In the manor, thousands of private soldiers looked at the Black Yan Guards in the sky at a loss. Facing the power of 30,000 Taoist soldiers, they felt their legs were weak and they had no idea how to deal with it.
If you fight, you will definitely not win.
But today it happened that the owner of the manor, the head of the Lin family, one of the most wealthy people in Yuzhou, was spending his summer vacation in the manor with his lovely wives and concubines. These private soldiers were all sons of the Lin family, and they signed the contract.
People who have sold themselves to death for generations, they dare not escape even if they want to.
Lin Sheng, the contemporary head of the Lin family, gritted his teeth and stood on the low wall of the manor, looking at the Black Swallow Guard in the sky with a panicked look on his face.
"I am Lin Sheng, the head of the Lin family in Yuzhou."
In the sky, a female commander of the Black Swallow Guard swung her sword down expressionlessly, and a beam of sword light struck down, causing the defensive formation to shake. The sound of collapsing buildings could be heard in many places in the manor.
"The Lin family of Yuzhou colluded with bandits and conspired against evil. By order of Princess Tianwu, we are here today to arrest and hold him accountable."
