When Qin Che saw Li Zhu again, it was already a month later.
In addition to the Red Flame Army from Daoshan City, there was also a young woman who came back with Lizhu.
The woman is very beautiful, especially her watery eyes, which are as lively as a deer in a forest.
"Who is she?" Qin Che asked Li Zhu.
Lizhu introduced: "She is the queen's niece. She was sent to serve you by the queen's decision."
Qin Che didn't expect that the queen would operate like this.
But he already has Lu'e, and there is no shortage of people around him to serve him. As for marrying Qin Che, he has not thought about it yet.
"Send it back for me. I have no plans to get married for the time being. Lu'e is enough to serve me." Qin Che said to Lizhu.
This answer was not unexpected at all. Lizhu had expected that Qin Che would send her back.
It's just that Lizhu didn't make a decision for Qin Che rashly. Instead, she brought the person back first and let Qin Che make his own decision after seeing it.
"Li Wu, please arrange a team of people to send people back safely." Lizhu ordered Li Wu.
"Yes."
Li Wu agreed and took the person away.
As for the whole process, the queen's niece was not able to say a word.
After everyone was sent away, Li Zhu also told Qin Che what happened in Chaozhong this month.
"After Prince Yu succeeded to the throne, he named the country Xing."
"The first thing Prince Yu did when he took office was to abolish the Embroidery Department."
"Li Wei and his gang members will all be executed."
"However, Prince Yu, who was not a member of Li Wei's party, was not executed. Instead, he continued to stay in the palace and told the public that they were all sent to the Torture Department."
"In reality, these people should still get some appointments, but they will no longer be used openly."
This is as expected. Qin Che had thought before that Prince Yu would abolish the Embroidery Department.
It’s just that Prince Renyu of the Embroidery Department shouldn’t kill all of them.
How could Prince Yu not use such a useful knife?
A little low-key and secretive, this knife is still very easy to use.
"At the same time, Prince Yu also gave generous rewards."
"Your throne has become hereditary, and your fiefs and fiefdoms have doubled."
"Prince Yu has agreed to all the conditions of the Red Flame Army."
"In addition to us, the nobles and ministers in the court have all received generous rewards."
"But this time, there is almost no difference between the rewards for ministers and the rewards for nobles."
"Even some capable foreign ministers received more generous rewards."
"It's just that more people have received awards, so there's not too much of a violent reaction on the part of the nobles."
……
After listening to the series of actions of Prince Yu after he succeeded to the throne, Qin Che discovered that Prince Yu was still very ambitious.
Whether it is Emperor Ming or the late Emperor, the biggest problem is nepotism.
Taking too much care of the interests of the nobles, the foreign ministers almost lost their way to promotion.
Even the embroidery department was established to further supervise and restrict the power of foreign ministers.
Of course, there were special circumstances at that time, and the Kim Sang family was so powerful that it was necessary to restrain it.
It's just that in order to suppress the metal phase, everyone lost their promotion path.
This is also a very unfair thing.
Qin Che also understood somewhat of Prince Yu's series of operations.
Why did the late emperor choose Emperor Ming, who had mediocre qualifications, instead of Prince Yu or Prince Yan when he passed on the throne?
Neither of these two people can inherit his will when he was in power.
Only Emperor Ming succeeded him well and continued his will.
Parents, you still like obedient children.
Emperors will inevitably fall into clichés.
"After Prince Yu has done this, the national power of Zhou Dynasty should be able to improve a lot." Qin Che gave his own evaluation.
Lizhu also agrees with Qin Che's view.
"As the national power of the Great Zhou Dynasty increases, the resources you want to obtain will become easier."
When it came to cultivation resources, Qin Che happened to have some questions and wanted to ask Li Zhu.
"If I want to hit the Tongmai realm, what preparations should I make in advance?"
The higher the level of martial arts, the smaller the number of people, and naturally the fewer people understand this level.
Li Zhu explained to Qin Che: "The next stage of the Qi Gathering Realm is called the Tongmai Realm.
However, it is not the twelve regular meridians that are connected, but the eight extraordinary meridians.
The twelve main meridians have been connected in the Qi Gathering Realm, so if you need to improve, you can only look for the eight extraordinary meridians.
The true energy accumulated in the third level of Qi gathering is to open up the eight extraordinary meridians.
When the eight extraordinary meridians are opened, no preparation is needed.
But after it is opened, the Tongmai Pill is needed to stabilize and enhance the firmness of the eight extra meridians."
"Tongmai Dan."
Qin Che remembered seeing such an elixir when he was reading in Daoshan City.
It’s just that this Tongmai Pill doesn’t seem to be available on the market.
Lizhu nodded and said: "Yes, Tongmai Pill is not available on the market."
"The materials required to refine the Tongmai Pill are more than ten times rarer than the Qi Gathering Pill."
"The one who can refine the Tongmai Pill must be an alchemy master."
"The most important thing is that the number of people who need Tongmai Pill is much less than the number of people who need Qi Gathering Pill."
"If nothing else, let me just say one thing. All masters of the Tongmai Realm can be called great masters. You will know how rare people who have set foot in the Tongmai Realm are."
"I don't know what happened in the past, but as far as I know so far, in the past three hundred years, Tongmai Realm was the highest-level martial arts master on land under the rule of the Great Zhou Dynasty."
"As for whether it exists overseas, I don't know. Anyway, within the land, the Tongmai Realm should be the strongest existence known so far."
After listening to Li Zhu's words, Qin Che asked: "Have you ever seen a master of Tongmai Realm?"
Lizhu nodded: "I once visited a senior in Tongmai Realm with my father. That was the only senior in Tongmai Realm that I have ever met."
"So he might have the Tongmai Pill?" Qin Che asked.
Lizhu shook her head and said, "You don't need to go look for that senior. I have a bottle of Tongmai Pill right here."
As Li Zhu said this, she took out a suet jade bottle.
"Why do you have the Tongmai Pill?" Qin Che looked at the Tongmai Pill that Li Zhu took out and asked in confusion.
Lizhu explained: "This is what the senior in the Tongmai realm gave to my father.
He looked at his father's talent and felt that he could quickly break through the third level of Qi gathering.
I gave my father a bottle of Tongmai Dan as a gift, which can be regarded as forming a good relationship with my father."
After a pause, Li Zhu said: "This Tongmai Pill was given to me by my father for preservation. I originally thought that this Tongmai Pill might never be used by anyone in this life. I didn't expect that you might be able to use it so soon."
Used it. This can be regarded as a comfort to my father that I have an acquaintance."
Qin Che took the jade bottle, pulled out the cork, looked at the lone Tongmai Pill inside, and couldn't help but frown.
