Two hundred and sixty-eight chapters accept apprentices
After asking Mu Yao to learn about the situation in Sheng Kingdom in the past three months, Jiang Beiran found that the plan was going more smoothly than he imagined, and that Lulin County was indeed slowly evolving towards what he imagined.
"In addition, although Yang Chong County is not as smooth as Lulin County, the lives of the people are much better than before. Your Majesty, do you think we should extend this new policy to the entire Sheng Kingdom?"
"Of course not." Jiang Beiran objected.
"Why?" Mu Yao asked very puzzledly, "Nowadays, the situation in Yangchong County and Lulin County makes other counties very envious. There are even people from other counties who have gone through hardships and smuggled to Lulin County.
This proves that Your Majesty’s policy is very successful.”
Glancing at Mu Yao, Jiang Beiran shook his head and said, "I really don't know what you have learned from studying politics for so long."
"I..." Mu Yao was about to refute, but remembered that she had never won against the emperor, so she simply lowered her head and prepared to hear where she was wrong.
"The reason why Lulin County can implement the New Deal so smoothly is because I have concentrated resources there first, that is, I have mobilized the whole country to help it develop. Otherwise, where do you think you will get so much money and food?"
"As for Yangchong County, as the first county in Fengzhou where the Hidden Moon Sect is located, they themselves have extremely generous resources, so there is not much resistance to the implementation of the New Deal. As for other counties... if there is a sudden influx of a large number of refugees,
, food supply alone is a big problem, do you understand now?"

"I know." Mu Yao nodded, "Then... what should other counties do?"
"You will know when the time is right."
As soon as Jiang Beiran finished speaking, a knock on the door suddenly sounded.
"Come in." Jiang Beiran said.
With a "squeak" sound, the wooden door was pushed open, and Kong Qianqian walked in with her buttocks covered and said: "To your Majesty, the boards are finished."
"Well, is there anything else?"
Kong Qianqian was about to say "No more" when she suddenly remembered something and shouted, "Report to the Emperor, there is indeed one thing. There is a person named Hong Yaxuan who has been wanting to visit you for the past three months. She calls herself Lan Guo
The disciple of the Sifang Sect’s leader.”
Hearing Hong Yaxuan's name, Jiang Beiran raised his eyebrows and asked, "Did she say what she was here for?"
"She said she came to offer her help to the Emperor on behalf of their sect master. My servant kept telling her to keep the things and I would report them to the Emperor, but she just didn't want to. She said she had to give it to you personally."
'Congratulations...' After hearing this, Jiang Beiran nodded secretly twice, somewhat understanding what Hong Yaxuan was here for.
"When was she last here?"
"Well..." Kong Qianqian counted on her fingers, "It should have been five days ago. She also said she would come back in ten days."
"I understand, please step back."
"My slave obeys the order." Kong Qianqian said and exited the imperial study.
After the door of the imperial study room was closed again, Mu Yao began to peek at the emperor with her peripheral vision.
"If you have anything to say, just say it directly." Jiang Beiran, who was reading a memorial, said.
Mu Yao hesitated for a moment after hearing this, and finally asked: "Does the Emperor know that Hong Yaxuan?"
"We had a chance encounter."
"Is that just like this? Why do I feel..."
While Mu Yao was speaking, she saw Jiang Beiran's eyes glaring at her. Knowing that she could not continue asking any more questions, Mu Yao could only mutter silently in her heart: "I wonder whose girl is going to be in trouble again..."
At night, Jiang Beiran stood outside the palace and stared at the stars, thinking about what he should do to maintain his own barrier most efficiently.
"See the Emperor."
While he was thinking, a figure came to Jiang Beiran and raised his hands to Jiang Beiran. It was Lifu City where we were going to meet the Xuanzun tomorrow.
"It looks a lot more capable." Jiang Beiran said as he looked at Lifu City.
If before going to Liang Kingdom, Lifu City was still a bit like a scholar, then after returning this time, his aura has become as fierce as a warrior.
Hearing Brother Wang's praise, Lifu City pulled down the scarf that covered half of his face and responded with a smile: "The Liang Kingdom is really chaotic. We are often involved in wars inexplicably. We have fought with others far too many times."
There are more than in Shengguo."
Seeing that there was a sword wound on Lifu Cheng's right face that was still recovering, Jiang Beiran took out a wooden box and handed it to her and said, "Apply it on the wound and it will be healed tomorrow."
"Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty, but..." Lifu City touched the wound and said softly: "Just let it stay, it will always remind me to remember this lesson."
After hearing this, Jiang Beiran didn't ask any questions. He quietly took back the wooden box and asked, "Is things going smoothly?"
"It went smoothly...it could even be said to be unexpectedly smooth."
"Oh? What should I say?" Creditor
"I originally thought that it would take a lot of effort for us to sneak into the Liang Kingdom, but I never thought that we encountered no obstacles along the way. We arrived in a county and settled down very easily. Later, I originally planned to investigate the state and county where we were.
, and then in Xu Xu Tuzhi, it was not like we got acquainted with a village leader with a bold temperament because he was involved in a big war. The village leader did not ask where we came from, and arranged for us just because we had similar temperaments.
The accommodation provided us with a place to stay quickly.”
'Is this the protagonist's aura...'
Although Jiang Beiran thought that getting Lifu City to Liang State wouldn't be too difficult, he didn't expect that it would be so easy. It was as if someone had paved the road for him to come.
'That's outrageous!'
"What happened next?" Jiang Beiran asked.
"Later, I used this Red Flame Village as a base and arranged for the brothers to disperse to various counties to conduct basic investigations. Although many accidents occurred during this period, we did not lose any troops. On the contrary, we got to know many local heroes.
."
"So you have successfully taken root in the Liang Kingdom?"
“I can’t say it was a success, but I have established some connections.”
‘It took three months for the organization to establish a foothold in a completely unfamiliar country...this is probably the protagonist.’
With a sigh in his heart, Jiang Beiran said calmly: "Excellent, I really did not misjudge you."
"Thank you for your praise, Your Majesty. I will definitely continue to work hard."
"Well, since you are going well in Liang Kingdom, let's talk about tomorrow."
After listening to this, Lifu City couldn't help but feel a little confused on his face. He still hasn't figured out what Xuanzun wanted to do. He suddenly appeared and disappeared suddenly, and made an inexplicable agreement during the period. It simply made him
In the clouds and fog.
"Who do you think Xuan Zun made the agreement for?" Jiang Beiran suddenly asked a question.
"Of course I'm here for the emperor." Lifu City replied without thinking.
"No." Jiang Beiran shook his head, "That Master Xuan must have come for you."
"Me?" Lifu City was a little surprised.
In Lifu City's heart, he and the emperor were completely different. As the saying goes, Yinghuo's GAC can compete with Haoyue and arouse the interest of a Xuanzun. Of course, only people like the emperor are among the dragons and phoenixes.
to him.
"That's right, that Sect Leader Yan most likely took a fancy to your Four Symbols body. I think he probably wants to accept you as his disciple."
"Xuanzun...want to accept me as your disciple?" Lifu Cheng's eyes widened, with surprise on his face.
You must know that Xuanzun is the top combat force on this continent, and has the qualifications to compete for the Central Plains. Each of them is a figure who can make a country tremble with just a stomp of his feet.
For such a big shot, the requirements for recruiting disciples are naturally very high, and every one of them is a unique genius.
Lifu City does not feel that it has such qualifications at all.
Seemingly seeing the confusion in Lifu City, Jiang Beiran continued: "The teacher you taught me is not just for cultivation. The Xuanzun naturally takes a fancy to your four-image body, and naturally wants to teach you the formation of formations.
"
"The formation..." Lifu City nodded, then looked at Jiang Beiran and said, "If possible... I would rather the emperor teach me."
Jiang Beiran shook his head after hearing this. "I have said that we have an equal relationship. I don't intend to teach you anything. Besides, that Xuanzun's formation ability should be far superior to mine. If he
I really want to accept you as my disciple, but you must cherish this opportunity."
"Yes." Lifu City cupped his hands and said.
After the conversation, Jiang Beiran asked Wang Shougui to arrange a place to stay in Lifu City and then went back to the palace to rest.
Early the next morning, the six-tailed fox who was sleeping on his stomach suddenly twitched his ears, and then immediately jumped up and ran happily to the edge of the array wall looking expectantly into the distance. The moment Jiang Beiran appeared, the six-tailed fox
The fox swung its tail excitedly, but when it realized that Lifu City was following Jiang Beiran, it suddenly became furious.
"Ouch! Ouch! Ouch!!!"
Listening to the six-tailed fox angrily shouting "Go away" in animal language, Jiang Beiran made a silent gesture to it and said: "Shh, you should be happy to see him coming."
After hearing this, the six-tailed fox immediately lowered its tails and said aggrievedly: "Master... is that old man coming..."
"Well, the agreed date has arrived. No matter what the outcome is, you don't have to stay locked in there anymore."
"Wow!!!" The six-tailed fox cried after hearing the "Wow" sound, lying on the ground and rolling around: "I don't want it, I don't want it, then you might as well keep me locked up, Master, you
Don't let that smelly old man come over, okay? I'm willing to be your pet here forever, please."
As soon as the six-tailed fox finished speaking, he saw a figure falling from the sky, landed in front of the little fox and said with a smile: "Who did you say you didn't want to come?"
This question frightened the six-tailed fox to the point where it fell to the ground and screamed "Ouch~" "Ouch~" "Ouch~".
"Greetings to Sect Master Yan." Jiang Beiran cupped his hands towards Yan Guangqing.
After hearing this, Lifu City also quickly shouted: "Greetings to Sect Master Yan."
Nodding towards the two of them, Yan Guangqing said, "Well, you raised this little fox well, and he's still very lively."
Faced with Yan Guangqing's praise, Jiang Beiran didn't know how to respond for a while. After all, this was not a test at all. It was just feeding him every day, and everyone could take care of him well.
After thinking for a moment, Jiang Beiran raised his hands and replied: "Fortunately, I did not disgrace my life."
After hearing this, Yan Guangqing laughed, turned his back and looked into the distance and said: "You, the little emperor, are indeed interesting. When I came here, I looked around and found that there were quite a lot of strange things in one of the counties. The river was like a city wall.
What is a building?”
"Back to Sect Master Yan, the building is called a dam, which is used to intercept the flow of water in the channel to raise the water level. It not only prevents floods, but also concentrates the water head to form a reservoir to help farmers irrigate their farmland."
"Flood control and farmland irrigation are really fantastic ideas, but it's a pity that they don't have much cultivation. Otherwise, I would have thought that Shengguo also understood the importance of imperial power. What do you want me to say..."
While talking, Yan Guangqing suddenly swung the bell in his hand
Just hearing the sound of "ding bell", Lifu City suddenly felt goosebumps all over his body, and looked towards the north with extremely frightened eyes.
"Hahahaha... Okay! What a body with four images! It's really wonderful!"
Sensing Lifu City's performance, Yan Guangqing suddenly laughed wildly and lamented that Lin Po's divination skills were really powerful.
When Yan Guangqing laughed wildly, Lifu City was still in a state of extreme panic, as if his soul had been taken away.
Jiang Beiran on the side was observing silently. The old man and the young man, one was going crazy with laughter and the other was going crazy with fear, which gave Jiang Beiran a rare emotion.
'Inexplicable.'
He didn't know what Yan Guangqing was laughing at, nor what Lifu City was afraid of. This feeling was a bit strange to Jiang Beiran, who was used to having everything under control.
Finally, Yan Guangqing, who was laughing so much, waved the bell in his hand again. With a "ding", Lifu City sat down on the ground, sweating profusely like he had taken a sauna.
Seeing Jiang Beiran looking towards Lifu City, Yan Guangqing smiled and said: "Don't worry, I'm just testing him."
After speaking, without waiting for Jiang Beiran to ask questions, he explained on his own: "I set up a Langya array a hundred miles away and used a secret method to hide it. Just now, I used a bell to cancel the hidden secret method. This kid actually felt it right away.
The Langya Formation is not running at all, and this kind of talent is simply born for the formation."
'Langya Formation...'
Jiang Beiran sighed in his heart, this was the legendary ancient formation, and even Jiang Beiran didn't quite understand what the effect of this formation was.
'Such a large formation... just put it in front of you, Xuanzun is really terrifying.'
"So Fucheng felt the terror of the Langya Formation, so he was so frightened?"
"That's right, Langya Town is one of the top ten ferocious formations. How can he, a little great profound master, touch it? So just sensing it is enough to make his liver and gallbladder burst."
‘Your testing method is a little too harsh...’
After explaining, Yan Guangqing walked up to Lifu City, who was still in shock, and said, "Is your name Lifu City?"
Although Lifu Cheng's breathing was still a little rapid, he still managed to stand up and said, "Yes."
"Are you willing to practice the formation with me?"
I think of what Brother Wang said yesterday, "If he really wants to accept you as his disciple, you have to cherish this opportunity." In addition, Lifu City thinks that if he really wants to help Brother Wang, he is still too weak now.
Already.
So he knelt down on the ground with a "pop", saluted and shouted: "Master is here, please pay homage to me!"
