The Lingxi Kingdom was incorporated into the Yunhong Dynasty and could not call itself a country. After Zhu Qinghong gave the order, the country was officially changed to a county, and Gao Chen was appointed as the prefect.
Gather together at the annual banquet to bid farewell to the old and welcome the new.
In the first year of Yunhong, during the Spring Festival, grain stores sold limited quantities of roast duck and chicken.
During this time, the rice was harvested and rice shops opened in the city. People who were alone often found it troublesome and still spent money to eat out. With wives and children, it was more cost-effective to weigh the rice and cook it at home. Nowadays, vegetables are plentiful, and anything you want to eat can be bought in the shops. p>
Dongshuang bought a dozen eggs and steamed them for his children when he went home. He cut half of the roast duck into cubes and fried them for the couple to share.
Mrs. Liu, who was carrying roasted chicken, bumped into Dongshuang and said with a smile: "Your family eats roasted duck? My family loves chicken, so we bought roasted chicken."
"Today we'll have roast chicken, and tomorrow we'll have roast duck. Let's s" Dongshuang saw Mrs. Liu buying a lot of vegetables, "Are you having guests at home?"
"Relatives from far away are here to pay New Year greetings." Ms. Liu smiled and said, "Tell me after you taste it. If it tastes good, I will buy the roast duck tomorrow."
"Okay." The baby on his back twisted impatiently, and Dongshuang said embarrassedly, "The baby is about to have a fuss. Let's talk when we have time."
Both parties said goodbye.
Mrs. Liu returned home and went into the kitchen to work.
A relative's aunt came to help: "Now your family is very promising."
"It's just a living. There's no point in making a living." Mr. Liu chose the food, "How many of your children are making money?"
"It's all hard work." The aunt found a stool to sit on and peeled potatoes. "Their father is not in good health and cannot stop taking medicine."
If it doesn’t get better, I can only keep taking medicine.
Liu changed the subject: "What do you think about the children's marriage? Do you have three sons?"
"I get worried when I talk about this." The aunt sighed and shook her head, "It's not easy to get married. The eldest brother just divorced and has a child."
In the past, I was worried about what to eat and how to live.
Now she is worried about her children's marriage, for fear that they will not be able to find a wife. Mrs. Liu can't say anything because her stomach has been unsatisfactory and has not moved.
The aunt wanted Mrs. Liu to help introduce her, but she opened her mouth several times but was declined politely.
"Children and grandchildren will have their own blessings. You don't have to worry too much." Ms. Liu comforted. There is no use worrying about such things. It depends on fate.
The aunt sighed, there was nothing she could do.
Children passing by laughing outside the hospital don’t know what it feels like to be sad. In contrast, they feel even more helpless.
When Dongshuang returned home, he first breastfed the child and put him to sleep. When his son was almost two years old, He Yang took him to the palace to train and take care of him.
Although most people have a holiday during the Spring Festival, He Yang and the others will take the exam soon. They can only train hard every day and give up their holidays.
Even if the child is asleep, she still makes dinner on her back. When He Yang comes back with the child in the evening, the family will have dinner together.
The day before the holiday ends.
Royal Palace.
Ono projected the picture.
[Master, someone has invaded our territory.]
In the picture, two noble and handsome men are riding an elephant, walking leisurely. Behind them are about ten people, who look like subordinates.
The elephant... looked very familiar. Zhu Qinghong thought of Mr. Zhao who he met when he first came to this world.
Is this team related to him?
It took so long to find someone, which shows that you are not careful. It is necessary to investigate.
Zhu Qinghong sent an order to Su Rui to meet this group of people with her. Before setting off, the two of them specially picked plain clothes and changed into them.
"Those who can walk confidently in the wild must have something to rely on." Zhu Qinghong rarely wore white and put on a red shawl. "Try to show weakness and let them lower their guard. Conceal your identity and search for information. They are approaching Lingxi County and notify Gao Gao.
Dedicated to performing."
"Okay, sister." With the armor, they can talk at any time.
Su Rui asked Gao Chen and Yingcai to go back and wait.
"Let's go." Zhu Qinghong summoned the speeding car.
The two sat on it and flew into the sky. When they saw the group of people, they landed on the ground.
Today, Su Rui is wearing a blue gauze skirt, which is pretty and cute. Zhu Qinghong, who is wearing white clothes with a touch of red, is elegant and refined.
Looking around, I saw a pavilion not far away.
Zhu Qinghong and Su Rui walked over and pretended to be sisters passing by to rest.
The group of people got closer and closer, and stopped in front of the passage. The two men on the elephant's back were about the same age, and their eyebrows were similar, so they should be brothers.
The young man was nineteen years old and his name was Zhao Yiyang. He frowned slightly: "Protective shield? Is there a priest here?"
Another man is 20 years old and his name is Zhao Yilan.
He raised his hand, and the two people behind him stepped forward and approached the protective barrier to test it.
Seeing the people getting closer and closer, Zhu Qinghong walked out of the pavilion and said with a smile: "Young gentlemen, there is no harm in protecting yourself."
Su Rui smiled lightly and said: "Yes. The protection was built by our country's priests to protect the people, specifically to ward off demons."
The sudden appearance of two women put them on alert. Zhao Yilan remained silent.
Zhao Yiyang held up his hand: "I've seen two girls."
Zhu Qinghong covered his lips and chuckled: "I don't dare to take it seriously. We sisters happened to be passing by and were just resting here."
"You two young masters, just come in." Su Rui winked playfully, "The demons are raging outside. It's safer inside the protection."
Zhao Yiyang looked at Zhao Yilan and asked silently. The two brothers looked at each other and understood each other tacitly.
They jumped off the elephant's back and walked towards the protection. Their subordinates stepped back and made way. The brothers did not enter the protection directly, but stood outside to take a closer look.
Zhu Qinghong was gentle and blessed: "Qinghong has met the two young masters. Do the young masters dare to walk in the wild and dare not come in?"
"Sister, why bother?" Su Rui pouted in displeasure, "If you don't come in, just go further away. Don't let yourself be exposed to the light of protection."
The elephant's trunk raised, and a bell sounded.
Zhu Qinghong felt a sound wave, which seemed to have the effect of driving away demons.
No wonder they dare to walk in the wild. The animals in this world have not completely turned into monsters.
There is nothing unusual about the horses kept in the city, and the elephants we have seen twice also look normal.
Ono immediately conducted data analysis on the elephant and found that there were trace minerals in the body.
The content of minerals in the body determines the level of the demon's ability. A trace amount does not constitute a mutation condition, and at most the intuition will be more sensitive.
Can we assume that the thing that causes animals to mutate into monsters is a mine?
Minerals scatter outward, and the farther away they are, the lower the impact on animals. Monsters in the wild are not included, but looking at the forest of monsters...there must be something in the forest that enhances the power of monsters.
It's a pity that her combat power has not been fully restored, so it is not suitable to face the Demon Forest. Remember that first.
"Rui'er, don't be rude." Zhu Qinghong said with a smile, "My sister-in-law is naughty, I hope the two young masters won't take offense to her."
Zhao Yilan thought for a moment and stepped into the guard. The others were shocked and breathed a sigh of relief when they found out that everything was fine.
"Where are you two girls going?" Zhao Yiyang also walked into the guard, "The closest place is..."
"Lingxi County." Zhu Qinghong asked sideways, "Young master, you might as well go into the pavilion to rest for a while. Let's talk slowly if you have anything to say."
Zhao Yilan went first, and Zhao Yiyang followed. Four or five subordinates accompanied him and guarded outside the pavilion.
They entered the pavilion and sat under the eaves, and were attracted by the orbs on the stone platform.
Zhao Yiyang asked curiously: "What is this?"
Su Rui looked proud: "I don't know this. This is an orb. I will store the power in it with the priest, and if it is placed here, it can be protected for a month. When the time comes, I only need to send someone to replace it, and I can continue to resist the demon. It seems that
You don’t have much knowledge either.”
"Rui'er." Zhu Qinghong smiled helplessly, "Lingxi County, Haicheng, and Tianchong City have been unified by your Majesty, and the Yunhong Dynasty has been established."
Zhao Yilan looked at Zhu Qinghong with an unclear expression.
Zhao Yiyang was shocked: "May I ask His Majesty's name so that we can visit you."
"If you want to meet His Majesty, you are not qualified." Su Rui put her hands behind her hands and smiled, "If you want to meet the prefect of Lingxi County, we have something to do."
"My father has some friendship with the prefect." Zhu Qinghong changed the subject, "I wonder why the two young masters are here?"
Zhao Yiyang sighed: "Seventh brother has not returned home for a long time. Grandma was thinking about it, so she sent us two brothers to look for it. I wonder if you have seen it? Seventh brother is riding the same elephant as us. Be careful, you should not be discovered by the monster. Also bring
Got some servants."
Zhu Qinghong shook his head, with deep eyes: "I have never seen it before. The seventh brother is so special, I must have an impression after seeing him."
"Can elephants avoid monsters? Are they tricking us?" Su Rui stepped forward and looked at the elephant, "It doesn't look special."
"Of course you can't tell by just looking at it. This image is called the perception image." Zhao Yiyang walked to Su Rui and explained, "After the demon broke out, some animals did not mutate. They awakened different abilities. With a little domestication, they can become
What we use."
"So, your family specializes in domesticating such animals?" Su Rui's eyes sparkled, "Can I ride one?"
"Rui'er." Zhu Qinghong went over and pulled her away, "If you keep fooling around, I will inform my father when I get back and ask you to get married as soon as possible."
Su Rui stuck out her tongue and stepped aside.
Zhu Qinghong saluted Zhao Yiyang: "My sister-in-law is messing around, please don't take it personally."
"It's not a big deal." Zhao Yiyang was a little embarrassed, "If she is really happy, she can ride on it."
"Really?" Su Rui jumped out and saw him nodding and hurriedly pulling people out, "Take me quickly."
It was too late for Zhu Qinghong to stop him.
She sighed and apologized to Zhao Yilan: "My sister-in-law is really spoiled by my father."
"It's okay." Zhao Yilan stood up and walked to her side, "The sensory image is not aggressive. Your sister will be fine."
With a faint smile, Zhu Qinghong said nothing.
Outside the protection, Zhao Yiyang was pulled to the side of the sensing elephant. Su Rui's eyes silently urged.
He jumped on the elephant's back and stretched out his hand. Su Rui stood there awkwardly: "It's too high, I can't get up."
Zhao Yiyang ordered several subordinates.
They dragged Su Rui's feet and lifted them up. Su Rui exclaimed and hurriedly grabbed Zhao Yiyang's hand.
Sitting firmly on the elephant's back, her eyes lit up: "It's quite spacious. It's more comfortable than riding a horse. I like it. Can you give me one?"
"Sorry. The number of sensory elephants is limited." Zhao Yiyang drove the elephant to walk around a few times.
Su Rui fell backward uncontrollably.
Unexpectedly, Zhao Yiyang's body froze as his arms filled with warm and fragrant nephrite. He coughed lightly and said, "How old is the girl?"
"Sixteen, almost seventeen." Su Rui happily waved to Zhu Qinghong, "My father agreed on a marriage a few years ago and we will get married on a certain date."
Zhao Yiyang frowned slightly.
Su Rui looked back with a smile: "I believe he will be very good to me. I like him the most."
"Really? Congratulations, girl." Zhao Yiyang looked calm. Su Rui's lips curved upward, there is no such person in the world.
A black shadow appeared on the ground, approaching very quickly. Zhu Qinghong caught sight of it and remained calm.
Just a test of your ability to perceive images.
The elephant's trunk is raised high and the bells are ringing.
