Hide And Cultivate In The East Palace, Only To Find The Prince Is A Girl

backyard.

Zhu Wudao had already come out of the study and looked outside the formation. He saw Ding Bo flying in the sky, with his hands behind his back. The wind was light and the clouds were light, and his face was solemn. Is that the strong man who secretly protects Zhang Ronghua from Destiny Academy? I felt bitter in my heart. If they were the only ones, I was confident that I could kill him with the magic dragon flame formation. However, facing the person in front of me, the low-level heaven-level formation was not enough, so I did not give up. I fought to the death. No matter how strong the opponent was, he would still have to fight. Bite off a piece of flesh.

The seal method changed, controlling the demonic dragon's flame formation, and condensing a peak blow. The flame dragon looked up to the sky and groaned. The dragon's mouth suddenly opened and bit it roughly and ferociously.

Wherever it passed, flames rolled and shot out layers of air waves.

Ding Bo was disdainful: "You dare to act wild in front of me even if you have broken the formation?"

He raised his index finger, and the cyan aura condensed.

He didn't use any martial arts or magical powers, just relying on his true energy and pointing at random.

call out!

A huge sound broke through the air, surpassed the space, and hit the flame dragon. Without even holding on for a breath, the flame dragon dissipated from the sky, as if it had never appeared before.

The green light giant finger continued unabated and hit the dragon's flame formation.

Zhu Wudao's complexion changed drastically, and his reaction was quick. He couldn't be caught by them no matter what, and hurriedly took out a low-grade thunder bead of the heaven rank, looking like crazy: "Even if the head of the family dies, it will not fall into your hands."

Cruelly crush the thunder bead to explode!

boom…….

The formation broke open, and the thunder beads exploded, turning into a sea of ​​thunder that swallowed him. Before he could rush out, Ding Bo shot again, and with a wave of his sleeve, a large piece of blue light fell down, and he saw these seas of thunder that contained destructive power. , dissipated in an instant, and the world returned to clarity again.

With a step forward, Ding Bo returned to where he was: "Okay."

Zhang Ronghua ordered: "Control everyone!"

Mo Qian and Lu Jian rushed in with people immediately.

a while.

Everyone in the Zhu family was controlled and searched.

In the courtyard.

Mo Qi'an reported: "This subordinate has already brought people to search, and there is nothing of any value in the mansion, money, martial arts and exercises, etc., have also disappeared. According to the servant's account, in the afternoon, Zhu Wudao's daughter Zhu Linglong and her teacher Mother-in-law Zun Jinyue is still in the house, but she is missing now. I suspect she escaped with something."

Zhang Ronghua ordered: "The whole city is wanted, and then, as an official, I will pass it on to the states, ordering them to issue a wanted order, and bring everyone in the Zhu family back for torture and interrogation, to see if they can get useful information, and then seize all the properties of the Zhu family. "

"Yes!" Mo Qian responded respectfully.

Let them leave first.

Outside the house.

Zhang Ronghua joked: "Uncle Ding, you hide it so deeply."

"The existence of this old slave is only to protect the young master. You are the young master's brother, so naturally you are also under protection."

Zhang Ronghua said: "You go back first, I will go to the East Palace, His Highness is still waiting for news."

Ding Yi said: "Brother, how about we come with you?"

"No."

Waving his hands and leaving behind a trace of his back, Zhang Ronghua rushed towards the East Palace.

Ding Yi greeted: "Go to Huo's house!"

East Palace.

The prince did not rest and was waiting for news.

Something happened.

An Yue came out from the darkness and took over all the food and beverages. No matter who, including Shuang'er, poured tea, served pastries, spiritual fruits, etc., they had to go through her inspection and hand them over after confirming their safety.

Don’t be surprised when the sky falls.

Sitting on a chair and reading a book is a great way to nourish your Qi.

Eee!

There was a sound of pushing the door, followed by steady and strong footsteps, the prince knew who was coming, put down the book, Zhang Ronghua came in from the outside, bowed and saluted: "I have seen Your Highness!"

"how?"

Zhang Ronghua explained the matter again.

The prince said: "It's hard for you to find Zhu's family in such a short period of time. From now on, the focus will be on the government office and Zhongtian camp. The rest of the matter will not be solved in a short time. I will ask my father to send Taichu Demon investigation.”

"yes."

"It's already very late. Go back and rest early."

"I resign!"

Wait for him to leave.

The prince said: "Serve me to change my clothes!"

a while.

He rode in the car and rushed towards the palace.

As long as she is in Daxia, even if Zhu Linglong escapes to the ends of the earth, she will never leave.

…

Return to the house.

Uncle Shi came forward and said, "I will go to the kitchen to heat up the food."

"Yeah." Zhang Ronghua nodded.

Entered the room, pulled out a chair and sat down.

Thinking about creating exercises, perfected them last night, sorted out what I have learned, and then continued, there is no rush, patience is needed, and the strength of the exercises is related.

soon.

Uncle Shi came in with four dishes and a bowl of rice. He said that they needed to be heated up. The dishes were bright and freshly cooked.

After dinner.

Uncle Shi took the bowls and chopsticks and left, then closed the door.

Entering the bedroom, he sat on the bed and continued combing.

Time passed, and the night passed in the blink of an eye. Looking at the sky outside the window, it was time to go to court again.

Zhang Ronghua had a smile on his face. He finally finished sorting it out. He could create the skills at any time. But he couldn't do it right now. There was one more important thing to do. He would wait until he got back next time to create his own divine and demon skills.

Put on the official uniform and wash up under the waiters of Ma Ning and Ma Jing.

In a quarter of an hour.

Ziji Palace.

The eyes of some ministers glanced at Zhang Ronghua from time to time. Regarding what happened yesterday, they had already heard that the government soldiers and government officials were dispatched to investigate the perfume shops in the city. They couldn't hide such a big thing even if they wanted to inquire about it. , got the inside story, and was secretly shocked, who was so bold as to poison the prince?

Then he looked at the queue of princes, and the murderer was definitely one of them!

A strong sense of crisis came, has the situation reached this level? Make up your mind not to get involved, lest you end up being punished by the three clans.

The oppressive and heavy atmosphere reached its limit with the appearance of Emperor Xia. I glanced at the prince secretly and saw that his face was very cold, and I couldn't see any of his inner thoughts. I was also very curious. Could it be that there was no result?

Wei Shang said: "If there is something to do, we will start to act; if there is nothing to do, we will withdraw from the court!"

Pei Caihuai was still the first to come out: "Your Majesty, the Shang Dynasty has replied and agreed to hand over the Taizhou Celestial Star Sword Formation."

Emperor Xia guessed this result: "Send a message to Emperor Shang that one Zuo Xianliang is not enough, and ask him to send someone with sufficient weight to negotiate."

"Yes!" Pei Caihua obeyed.

Wait for him to return to the queue.

Mr. Zhou Ge stood up and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, yesterday afternoon, Yin Xu Guowen of Lanzhou Prefecture received an urgent memorial. As the harvest was approaching, an insect infestation suddenly appeared in the territory. I tried my best to organize manpower and troops to kill them, but to no avail. Rough statistics show that at least 60% of the rice was lost. People panicked, causing the price of food to skyrocket. It had already risen to one tael of silver a dou. The situation was urgent. They had ordered the opening of granaries to suppress the price of food. They also sent people to borrow food from nearby prefectures. I have killed a group of businessmen who were driving up food prices with an iron fist, but I still cannot suppress the development of the situation. I beg your Majesty to order the transportation of food from the Jinzhou granary to temporarily tide over the crisis."

Jinzhou Granary is one of the large warehouses. It stores a lot of grain and is strictly kept secret. It is guarded by the army and martial arts experts.

There are rumors that the grain stored in Jinzhou's granary is enough for more than a dozen state capitals to share for a year.

Thanks to convenient transportation and abundant water transport, if there was a war, the imperial court would first transfer grain from Jinzhou granaries for the consumption of the army.

Mr. Cui Ge had a dark face and asked sternly: "What does Xu Guowen do? Why is it that such a big insect infestation has been suppressed until now? If the report had been reported earlier and the strong men of the Soul Palace were sent to take action, even if there were more, they could be exterminated. How could it be ruined? Losing more than 60% of Lanzhou’s rice?”

Zhou Gelao retorted: "The geographical environment of Lanzhou is very poor. There are many deep mountains and old forests, and there are many huge mountains. The pests hide in the mountains and cannot come out. Who can know the specific number? If you lie about the news, wouldn't you be deceiving the emperor?"

"Is this the reason? As a governor of a state, the city is guarded by powerful men from the True Dragon Palace. Wouldn't you ask them to come forward to investigate? No matter how deep the insect infestation is, such a huge number can still be hidden from them?"

Mr. Zhou Ge sneered: "You know what Lanzhou is like! There are many monsters and monsters in the territory, and there are also ferocious beasts and true spirits hidden there. The True Dragon Palace is indeed very powerful, but its energy is tied up by them. There are not enough manpower, and there is no conclusive evidence." Wouldn’t it be a waste of manpower to ask them to come forward with the news?”

Jiu Xuanji cursed in his heart, "Shang Qingxuan's matter has not been resolved yet, and you are so quick to let me take the blame again, can't you change it?" He immediately stood up and retorted: "The True Dragon Palace's office in the state capital has always been based on the orders of the government. As long as the governor, the judge and the judge jointly issue a document, no matter what they are doing, they will unconditionally give up. Get the government affairs done as soon as possible."

Zhou Gelao yelled: "Shut up! You have no right to speak here."

"Fuck!" Jiu Xuanji cursed in his heart.

I really want to punch him, but I can't! The other party is the elder of the pavilion and cannot be offended.

Mr. Cui Ge was furious: "This is the Ziji Palace, and Jiu Xuanji is the master of the True Dragon Palace. Why can't you speak? Tell me, which law stipulates this?"

Seeing that the two of them were quarreling more and more fiercely, their people were about to end.

Mr. Zeng Ge stood up and said: "Xu Guowen's matter will be discussed later. The most urgent task is to discuss ways to solve the food problem in Lanzhou."

call!

Take a deep breath and suppress the rage in your heart.

Cui Gelao said again: "Your Majesty, you must not adjust grain from the Jinzhou Granary. The situation on the border is very tense now. The Wu Clan, the Jin Kingdom and the Five Elements Tribe have secretly integrated their forces and are preparing to take action. If a war breaks out, the food in the Jinzhou Granary is critical. Importantly, the grain in the remaining granaries also has other uses. I propose to transfer grain from nearby state capitals, kill a group of large households who are driving up grain prices, kill chickens as a warning to monkeys, confiscate their grain, control the quantity, set the daily consumption amount, and distribute it to each household. The crisis can be temporarily resolved.”

"Fart!" Mr. Zhou Ge yelled angrily.

"Although the crisis has been resolved, the conflict still exists. The people don't have enough to eat. It's okay for a short time. But once it goes on for a long time, more and more negative emotions will accumulate. If someone instigates it, riots will form. The consequences will only be more terrible than the border. .”

Mr. Cui Ge pointed at him angrily: "That's nonsense! The people have enough hands and feet to ensure basic food and clothing. They continue to work. Although life is a little harder, the money earned is enough for the needs of the family. The state government will send people to appease them. Lead the cultivation, and the crisis will be lifted! Who dares to jump out to fan the flames, find someone who is killing three tribes, and use iron-fisted methods to shock them, who dares to be so bold?"

People from the two factions exited, pointing at each other and yelling at each other.

As time went by, the situation not only did not subside, but intensified. More people got involved, and the quarrel became more intense. They turned red and pointed at each other and cursed angrily.

All kinds of ugly words came out one after another.

Seeing someone rolling up their sleeves and about to start a fight, the situation was about to get out of control.

Wei Shang took a step forward and shouted coldly: "Quiet!"

A trace of true energy was circulating, like a thunderous explosion. Everyone stopped subconsciously and looked at Emperor Xia on the dragon throne. Seeing His Majesty's eyes cold and sharp, they all shuddered, closed their mouths, and did not dare to say any more. .

Emperor Xia's cold voice sounded: "Look at what you have become each and every one of you? You are well-read in poetry and books, and you are rich in knowledge. People who don't know this would think you are a shrew in the vegetable market."

All the officials lowered their heads.

Looking at Zhang Ronghua in the Tianji Pavilion queue with majestic eyes, Emperor Xia's mind moved and he secretly guessed that Qinglin was so calm, could he have a good plan?

Then he said: "Besides these two, are there any other methods?"

I also watched the play, it was quite exciting.

Zhang Ronghua knew that he should come forward, so he walked out of the queue, stopped in front, bowed and saluted: "I propose to open the Jinzhou granary, transport the grain in large Xumi bags to Lanzhou, and sell it at market price to appease the people."

Cui Ge Lao frowned. He could not see things that he could see, so why would he do this? Thinking of Zhang Ronghua's character, he would not target someone without reason, so he decided to wait and see.

Chu Xuping is indeed a good dog raised by Mr. Wei Ge. When he saw the opportunity, he jumped out immediately: "Mr. Cui Ge just mentioned the importance of the Jinzhou granary. He couldn't move, but you proposed to open the granary to transport grain. What's your intention?"

Mr. Zhou Ge watched with cold eyes and did not stand up to support Zhang Ronghua. Instead, he wished that he would make a fool of himself.

Zhang Ronghua said: "I haven't finished speaking yet, so don't interrupt."

Chu Xuping suppressed his anger: "I want to see what you have to say! Solve the thorny problem that the two cabinet ministers cannot handle."

He slapped his palm on Wulong Yuling's belt and took out the seeds of Shangjing rice, not the ears of rice.

Zhang Ronghua presented it with both hands. Wei Shang came down and returned with the things.

He spoke again: "Although I have just taken office, as a parent official, I dare not slack off for a moment. Combining the many books I read before, many of which recorded crops, I carefully calculated and went through countless experiments. The hard work paid off, and finally we will The current improvement of rice can double the original production capacity. The yield of fertile land is 600 catties per mu, the yield of inferior fields is 500 catties, the dry fields are 300 catties, and the yield of barren mountains and deserts is 100 catties."

boom!

The civil and military officials were shocked. Everyone looked over. First they looked at Zhang Ronghua, and then they looked at Shang Jingdao on the imperial case. They thought in disbelief, is he crazy? You even dare to say such crazy things. If you can't do it, aren't you afraid of being accused of deceiving the emperor?

If it weren't for the wrong occasion, Chu Xuping would have wanted to laugh out loud!

God-given opportunity, Zhang Ronghua took the initiative to send the knife over. If he didn't do it now, when would he do it? As for what he said, it's all bullshit!

If rice varieties were so easy to improve, the Ministry of Industry would have successfully developed them over the years. With so many people, how could they not be as good as him?

Not to mention doubling the yield per mu, even if it increases by 100 kilograms, it is a huge achievement! Furthermore, can rice be grown in harsh environments such as dry fields, barren mountains and deserts? If so, he stands on his head and eats shit!

"This is the Ziji Palace. Your Majesty is still sitting on the Dragon Throne. His words are like splashing water. If you can't double the yield per mu with the rice seeds you just handed over, you are deceiving the Emperor!"

I am familiar with Zhang Ronghua's personality and think of the things he did in the Lingyan Department before. Could it be that he has really improved a new variety?

Zhang Ronghua said: "I don't have to worry about Yushi Chu. If I dare to say this, I will naturally be responsible for every word."

Looking at Emperor Xia.

"Your Majesty, if it is true or false, you can get rice seeds, plant them in a flower pot, and let Eunuch Wei use his cultivation to promote birth."

Chu Xuping panicked, was it really successful?

Wei Shang ordered people to bring the things, came down from the imperial platform again, stopped in front of the officials, planted two kinds of rice seeds, stretched out his palms, and used real energy to stimulate the rice.

this moment.

Everyone stretched their heads to look around. Ding Yi and Chen Youcai knew the inside story and stood in the queue as steady as a mountain. The others couldn't calm down and wanted to get the results as soon as possible.

Form a circle in front to block the line of sight. People behind you can't see it. Don't worry!

After a few minutes.

Wei Shang took back his hand and looked at the two rice plants. The one on the left was a new variety improved by Zhang Ronghua. The rice ears were more than twice as big as the one on the right. You could draw a conclusion just by looking at the appearance, and you had to weigh them.

He picked off the ears of rice and put them on the scale in front of all the civil and military officials. Looking at the result in front of him, it was indeed a little more than twice as heavy. His old face showed excitement and he turned around: "Congratulations, Your Majesty! Zhang Fuyin has developed a new rice seed that is twice as heavy as the old rice seed. Calculated, the production capacity will be doubled."

Emperor Xia suppressed his excitement and said in a deep voice: "Try again!"

This time I changed to dry soil without any moisture and tried it again, but the result was still the same.

Emperor Xia's city couldn't bear it anymore.

The rice yield per mu doubled, and the national strength of Daxia increased, which has many benefits. The simplest point is that if the people are full, the rebellion will not happen. Studying in academies will, over time, bring more and more talents to Daxia.

If you join the army, you will eat enough to eat, your physique will become stronger, and after training, your combat effectiveness will be stronger, and the quality of the army will be improved in an all-round way. If a big battle breaks out, even if you can't win the opponent for a while, the energy consumption will kill the enemy!

With its help, there are many things that can be done.

Just as he was about to speak, Chu Xuping jumped out again and poured a basin of cold water on his face: "Even if the yield per mu is doubled, it can still adapt to various environments. Whether there are any side effects or toxins has to be inspected by the Ministry of Industry."

Chen Youcai came out and said loudly: "Yesterday, Officer Ding took it to the Ministry of Industry for inspection. I personally checked it one by one. It has no side effects. It can be eaten with confidence."

Chu Xuping lowered his head and wanted to pretend to be a grandson, but he didn't dare to dance anymore.

Emperor Xia was just feeling happy, but before he could enjoy himself to the fullest, he threw cold water on him. How could he let him go? Furious: "Palm mouth!"

Chu Xuping did not dare to disobey, raised his palm, aimed at his face and slapped it.

Snapped!

There was a sound of slaps, and I used all my strength, not daring to deceive the king.

Xia Huang said: "It's not loud enough! Zhang Ronghua, help him."

"I obey the decree!"

Zhang Ronghua smiled and walked over. Chu Xuping was frightened and wanted to retreat but did not dare. Before he could react, a storm of attacks came down.

The first palm fell, and the huge force of the palm knocked all the teeth in his mouth away. The second palm fell and knocked him unconscious. Do you think this is the end? Just think about good things!

Zhang Ronghua grabbed his collar, pumped his right hand fiercely, and shot his bow left and right. It didn't matter what he did, let him feel better first.

After dozens of strokes, he finally stopped after trying to figure it out.

As soon as his palm was loosened, Chu Xuping fell to the ground. Looking at his face again, it was more terrifying than a pig's head, especially his mouth. It would not be an exaggeration to say that it was like a pig's intestines.

A human emperor guard came forward and dragged him away without giving him any face. This shows how angry His Majesty was!

Emperor Xia asked: "What is the name of this rice?"

Zhang Ronghua said: "Your Majesty, it's called Shangjing Rice."

"Not bad!" Emperor Xia asked again.

"Did you develop it alone?"

I owe a lot to the development of Shangjing Rice. Even if I eat all of it and suffocate the feudal prince to death, I will still be the county prince and give some away, but the result will still be the same.

Zhang Ronghua is not a solitary person. Ding Yi calls him brother and follows behind him to do things without complaint. He has to take care of both public and private matters: "In addition to Chen, there is also Ding Tuiguan. He provided a lot of help when Chen was developing Shangjing Rice." A big boost.”

Ding Yi was touched. He never forgot himself. He tried his best to open his mouth to say that this matter had nothing to do with him, but the words he said were swallowed back. If he told the truth, Zhang Ronghua would be deceiving the emperor, and the officials would definitely not let him go. Opportunity, I have no choice but to keep the kindness in my heart.

Emperor Xia spoke with a domineering and unparalleled aura: "Zhang Ronghua, Ding Yitingfeng!"

"I'm here!" the two responded.

"You have developed Shangjing rice, which has made great contributions to Daxia and the people. Your contribution is in the country and will last for thousands of years. This is a great contribution to the sky."

After a pause, it seemed that he was deliberately trying to whet the appetite of the officials. When he saw that the fire was almost done, Emperor Xia said.

"Female Ding Yi as the Marquis of Beicheng, and add a sacred Tianlong horse! Make Zhang Ronghua the Marquis of Nancheng, and add a sacred Tianlong horse!"

The south is respected and the north is ranked second, with Nancheng County Yamen and Beicheng County Yamen as the title. Although he is a county prince, he is the most noble in Daxia! The gold content and honor are so high that no ordinary prince can compare with them.

But there is no fiefdom and no food fief!

I guessed that they would be granted the title of Marquis, but I didn't expect that the ones who would be ennobled were the Marquis of Nancheng and the Marquis of Beicheng. They were immediately shocked.

Mr. Wei Ge was the first to jump out: "Your Majesty, you must not do it! Nancheng Marquis and Beicheng Marquis are of great significance. Throughout the history of Daxia, they have never been sealed. This case cannot be opened. It is better to change them to other county marquises. "

"I second the proposal!" Mr. Zhou Ge agreed.

People from both factions, as well as princes and other political opponents, jumped out at the same time.

Zhang Ronghua's people, Pei Caihuai and his human tripod!

Surprisingly, Mr. Cui Ge also supported it.

Seeing that more and more people were ending up, Emperor Xia became determined this time and shouted: "Shut up!"

Sharp eyes fell on Mr. Wei Ge.

"If you develop Shangjing rice, I will make you the Marquis of Dongcheng!"

thump!

Mr. Wei Ge was so frightened that he knelt on the ground with his head on the ground, not daring to refute.

"I leave my words here today. Whoever can develop new varieties like Zhang Ronghua, the Marquis of Dongcheng will be his!"

Baiguan was so angry that he didn't dare to take a breath.

Xia Huang said: "There is no precedent, so I will make this example, and the matter will be settled like this."

The two thanked each other: "Thank you, Your Majesty!"

"Xu Guowen did things poorly and seriously neglected his duties. He was dismissed from his official post and promoted Lu Junxiu to Lanzhou Prefecture Yin, who took office immediately."

Everyone knew that this was Zhang Ronghua's hardcore, and this time he took advantage of it. Not long after he sat on the fourth rank, he stepped into the ranks of the third rank, and there was nothing he could do to stop it.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Lu Junxiu came out to express his gratitude.

"Order Jinzhou Prefect to open the granary and transport grain. After you take office, suppress the price of grain and restore it to the original price to ensure the stability of Lanzhou."

"I obey the decree!"

"Before placing the order, Tianji Pavilion will come up with a reasonable regulation for rice cultivation in Beijing."

Five pavilion elders took the order.

Emperor Xia stood up, and Wei Shang understood what this meant: "Retreat from the court!"

The officials left one after another.

After everyone had left, Lu Junxiu was waiting there. Zhang Ronghua stepped forward and patted him on the shoulder: "Work hard when you get to Lanzhou and don't let your majesty down!"

"Do your best and die without regrets!"

It's a double entendre, and it's clearly stated to the surrounding Human Emperor Guards, but it's actually a statement that no matter where your subordinates go, as long as you say a word, you will be the first to charge forward.

Zhang Ronghua was pleased: "Go!"

Eunuch Xiao came in at this time, bringing two eunuchs with him. Each of them held a tray in their hands, holding unicorn robes, half of which were purple and gold, and inlaid with many gems. They were noble and luxurious, showing their status.

"Congratulations!"

"It's my job."

He took the unicorn robe and turned around to leave.

Before returning to Shangjing Mansion, I have to go to the Ministry of Industry and tell them the method of cultivating Shangjing rice.

It took a while.

After handling the affairs in the palace, he left the Suzaku Gate. Two chariots were waiting here. The sacred Tianlong horses had been added. His own chariot had six horses pulling the cart, and Ding Yi's had five horses.

When the news of the title spread, Ding Bo and Shi Bo smiled and congratulated, and they got on the chariot to drive them away.

Ding Yihou was anxious and couldn't wait: "Brother, hurry up and put on the unicorn robe."

Zhang Ronghua responded with a smile: "Okay."

He took it out and put it on. It had a purple gold collar and a huge unicorn embroidered on the chest. Its four hooves were burning with flames. It was calm and powerful, setting off its momentum to the extreme.

Look it over.

Ding Yi gave a thumbs up and praised: "Handsome! So handsome!"

"Brother, what about me? Do you look more handsome when you put on the unicorn robe?"

Zhang Ronghua said: "The second handsome man in Beijing."

"Brother, you still know how to speak." Ding Yi curled his lips.

"Your Majesty is so stingy, why can't you give me an extra set? It's better to wear something else."

Zhang Ronghua joked: "You can ask His Majesty for it later, and you can also ask for a set for me."

Ding Yi shrank his head and made a scared expression.

Arrive at the government office.

Tie Changlin came back first and took Liu An and others to wait in the middle courtyard. When he saw the two people coming, he hurriedly saluted: "I have met the Marquis!"

Zhang Ronghua nodded: "Don't leave in a hurry after I'm on duty. I'm treating you to a guest at the Platinum Courtyard."

"Your Excellency is wise!"

Wave your hand and let them go down.

Into the office room.

The three of them sat down.

Zhang Ronghua asked: "How much does the winery know?"

Tie Changlin was puzzled: "Why do you think of asking this?"

"There seems to be a lot of money in the government's books, but once it is used, it will be gone in an instant. I took the time to research two kinds of wine, one is ordinary wine, called Shangjing wine; and one is spiritual wine, called Shangjing spirit wine. , increase the government's income, and you can only do things with money, whether it is construction or benefiting the people, you will get twice the result with half the effort."

"Your Excellency is dedicated to serving the public good, and I admire you!" Tie Changlin admired him and said seriously.

"In the past two days, I have roughly learned about the government industry. There are quite a lot. Apart from salt, tea, etc., there are not many that can make money. The same things are available on the market, with good quality and low price, and we make them. The cost of making something was too high. I set the price too low and lost money. If I set the price too high, I couldn’t sell it. I had no choice but to stop temporarily and stop the loss in time. The winery is on the street behind the government office. It covers a large area and has all the craftsmanship. , can brew two thousand kilograms of wine in one day."

Zhang Ronghua was surprised: "So big?"

"What are the details? I haven't been there yet, why don't I go and have a look now?"

"Walk!"

The three of them got up and walked outside.

Arrive at the gate of the government office.

A carriage stopped. Four sacred Tianlong horses pulled the carriage. There was a word "Li" engraved on each side of the carriage. It was accompanied by four guards. The curtain of the carriage was opened. Li Daoran came out and looked at Zhang Ronghua and the others who had stopped. He walked over quickly and joked: "Waiting for me on purpose?"

"I guessed you were coming, so I waited here in advance."

"As expected of Qinglin..." At this point, Li Daoran stared at the Qilin robe and said tentatively.

"You, you..."

Tie Changlin took the words appropriately: "This morning, your Excellency and Chang Qing have been named the Marquis of Nancheng and the Marquis of Beicheng."

Li Daoran reacted quickly and bowed in salute: "I have met the Marquis!"

Zhang Ronghua knew that his old friend was half serious and half teasing, so he punched him in the chest angrily: "You're a stranger, right?"

Li Daoran smiled and said with curiosity: "No big things happened recently, why did you become a marquis?"

Zhang Ronghua briefly explained the matter.

Li Daoran looked at the sky and rolled his eyes, thinking that he had worked down there for so long in vain, but he couldn't replicate it. It would be difficult to find another person like Quan Daxia.

"A treat tonight!"

"Platinum Academy."

"good!"

Zhang Ronghua asked: "Just came back?"

"Yes!" Li Daoran nodded.

"I just finished handing over the affairs in Jinzhou, so I rushed here non-stop. I wanted to give you a surprise, but who would have thought that you would give me a surprise."

Chatted for a while.

Li Daoran left and agreed to meet in the evening.

The three of them got into the car and rushed towards the wine shop, which was not far from each other by a street. When they got here, there was a pair of soldiers guarding the outside. They hurriedly greeted him: "I've seen the Marquis!"

Zhang Ronghua ordered: "Open it."

Take the key from your waist and open the lock.

Entered the wine shop.

The word "big", just like Tie Changlin said, turned around and stopped in the backyard.

Zhang Ronghua lamented: "It's a complete waste that such a good winery is left vacant like this."

Looking at Zheng Zheng, he told him the information about going to Beijing for wine, and told him a few more to prevent the secret from being leaked, and then ordered him to get it.

He quickly returned to the right position and put down all the things.

Taking them into the room.

Mainly made of rice, supplemented by other materials, and three common medicinal materials, there are fifteen items in total. Although there are many types, they are all common and not expensive. We take clean water and brew it with Xuanhuang internal energy, saving precious time.

Less than a quarter of an hour.

Shangjing wine came out of the oven, a full kilogram, crystal clear, without any impurities, the rich aroma of the wine came out, it was heavy, and I filled three glasses.

Zhang Ronghua said: "Try it!"

Holding the wine glass, take a sip, strong! Very strong! The wine entered my stomach, like a knife burning. It was so delicious that I couldn't forget it even if I wanted to. I drank the rest of the wine and put down the glass.

Pour the prepared nine catties of water into it and blend it, stir it evenly, the three of them taste it again, the "strong" has become a little weaker, but it is still a rare "good wine", much better than the low-grade wines on the market .

As expected, Tie Changlin was from the Ministry of Household Affairs, and he was very allergic to silver. When he discovered the huge business opportunity contained in it, his eyes were hot, and he hurriedly asked, "How does Lord Hou set the price?"

Zhang Ronghua said: "Ten cents per pot, one pot weighs one pound."

"A pot on the market is only half a catty, and some are even less. Do we have too many?"

"Making money is one aspect, and giving back to the people is another aspect. Ten cents is already a lot. If the amount is not enough, it will undoubtedly squeeze the hard-earned money of the people. A pot of wine weighs a catty. Drink it sparingly, and it will last for a while. Press Calculated this way, after blending, the profit will be more than ten times."

Tie Changlin saluted solemnly: "Master Marquis loves the people like a son, I admire you!"

Zhang Ronghua took out a pen and ink from the Wulong Yuling belt, wrote down the recipes of the two wines, and handed them over: "I will leave the rest to you, keep it secret, and don't let the recipes be leaked."

"I understand!" Tie Changlin asked again.

“How is Shangjing Ling Wine priced?”

Zhang Ronghua said: "Price according to the lowest spiritual wine on the market."

"Yes!" Tie Changlin left excitedly.

Ding Yi asked: "Brother, are you going to Zhongtian Camp?"

The Zhongtian camp is about 120 miles away from the capital. In the Zhongtian Plain, the defense is deep and there is a large formation covering it. No one is allowed to approach. If one is found, it should be dealt with carefully.

Shake his head.

Zhang Ronghua said: "We can't do it now. The matters in Shangjing Mansion haven't been settled yet. You and Meng Qing alone can't control them. We'll have to wait for two more days."

Looking at the capital.

"While you have time now, go out of the city and inspect the towns and villages below."

After leaving the wine shop, he was ordered to go to the government office to inform Mo Qian and ask him to bring someone over.

Wait until they arrive.

Zhang Ronghua got on Ding Yi's car, and a group of people left Beicheng and headed for the territory of Shangjing Mansion. They spent most of the day looking at them one by one and learned the most real situation. Generally speaking, it was not bad, except While the stone village was destroyed, other villages and small towns were thriving and developing very well.

There are flat and wide roads from villages to towns. People have smiles on their faces and are satisfied from the bottom of their hearts. It seems that life is good.

Return to the capital.

Just as he was about to return to the government office, a group of people passed by on the street in front. The leader was Ji Xueyan, riding a sacred Tianlong horse, wearing a bamboo hat to hide his face. Behind him were the disciples of Jixiatang, carrying a nearly ten-foot-long Zhulong is already dead. Judging from the aura revealed, he should have been at the peak of the Heavenly Realm when he was alive. He is riddled with wounds and sword wounds everywhere. He still has the aura of the Five Elements Sword Formation. He should be besieged until death.

Zhang Ronghua guessed, did she lead the killing?

Is it because of this beast that you went out during this period?

It happened that Ji Xueyan's eyes seemed to be carelessly glanced away, but in fact she wanted to see her lover and couldn't help but look over. Her eyes seemed to penetrate the car and fall on him. After a few breaths, she looked away and rushed towards Jixia Academy. go.

The two were going in different directions, so the car continued to drive.

Zhang Ronghua was confused, where did she kill the candle dragon? Is the darkness taking action again? Suppress your doubts and ask again at night.

Go back to the government office.

He stayed until the next shift and took Tie Changlin and others to Baijinyuan. Today, he was granted the title of Marquis. Such a big event would be a ghost if it was not celebrated with glory. Chen Youcai, Xu Xing and Lu Zhantang have been notified.

When everyone arrives, the banquet begins.

An hour later.

After everyone dispersed, Zhang Ronghua told them to pay attention to safety and rushed towards the mansion.

I haven’t seen her for such a long time, I miss her!

Got outside the room.

There was a purple cat's flattering voice coming from inside, speaking unclearly, and acting coquettishly while eating.

Push the door open and close the door.

Ji Xueyan smiled and said, "Back!"

Zhang Ronghua said: "Are you anxious?"

"Just arrived."

Ji Xueyan stood up, walked over, winked playfully, bowed and saluted: "I have met the Marquis!"

Zhang Ronghua stretched out his hand, pinched her white and tender chin, and said cooperatively: "Give me a smile."

Ji Xueyan pretended to be scared and pitiful, her deep, bright eyes were red and swollen, and she looked like she was about to cry. She crossed her arms and retreated back: "Master Hou, don't let me go! Please let the little girl go..." …”

Zhang Ronghua couldn't help it anymore, he was so angry that he held the face in front of him and kissed it directly.

After a long time, the two separated.

Ji Xueyan's cheeks were full of charm, making people want to take a few more bites. He sat across the table and sighed: "If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I wouldn't have believed it! I'm still a noble Marquis of Nancheng after being granted the title of Marquis like this. .”

"I didn't expect His Majesty's reward to be so generous."

"This unicorn robe looks quite handsome on you."

"It's not as comfortable as the clothes you made."

Ji Xueyan rolled her eyes: "You have taken a big step closer to our agreement, and I am not idle either. Jixiatang's combat power has begun to show ferocity, and combined with the Five Elements Sword Formation, it is even more powerful. Like this time, the original target was just a python monster. Unexpectedly, on the way back, I met Zhulong near the capital, so I immediately took action and captured it without any effort."

Zhang Ronghua frowned: "Isn't it just for it?"

"It's not like you don't know that the traces of true spirits are hidden very deep, and it's very difficult to find them!"

Zhang Ronghua said seriously: "I got the news here that the Zhulong clan is a dark people."

Ji Xueyan's expression changed, cold and solemn: "Is the news reliable?"

"Um."

"What a pity! It's already dead. Otherwise, it could still be interrogated."

Zhang Ronghua said: "People in the dark are very strict. Even if they are pressed, they will not get any information."

"Forget it, just don't mention it!"

Ji Xueyan patted her purse with her jade hand, took out a dragon ball and handed it over: "It's specially reserved for you."

Zhang Ronghua didn't want it and returned the things: "I don't have the skills to do it. It's a waste to give it to me. You can use it yourself."

Ji Xueyan frowned: "Give up martial arts?"

"When we reach our current position, official duties are getting heavier and heavier, and we have to put more energy into it. It is very difficult to be like before. We have to make a choice between the two. In this case, it is better to stay in the officialdom to the end."

Ji Xueyan held his hand, clasped their fingers together, and said firmly: "I will practice hard and strive to grow up as soon as possible."

Zhang Ronghua said: "Don't put too much pressure on yourself, I will do everything for you."

"Yeah." Ji Xueyan responded.

"I'll take care of your bath!"
