City Lord's Mansion.
In just half a month, Zhong Yan was quite surprised when he saw Qin Ben again. He had more gray hair.
Especially on the temples, there are a few strands that are very obvious and eye-catching. He is only in his early forties.
But the whole person looked full of energy and his eyes were bright and piercing.
His temperament has also changed a bit, and there seems to be a hint of restrained sharpness in his gentleness.
Zhong Yan was suspicious and speculated whether it might be related to the technique practiced by the other party - "Xiao Jian Health Kung Fu".
A relatively famous martial arts technique in the Yan Kingdom. Compared with other domineering Qi, it is both more powerful and helpful in extending life.
Of course, this was only the information he found in the secret room of Xue Shanhu's family, and he was not sure whether Qin Ben practiced other techniques.
After simple greetings.
Zhong Yan mentioned Li Shangwen's joining the army. Before he arrived at the city lord's palace, the boy made up his mind firmly and said that the matter of passing on the family line would be left to his eldest brother Li Shangwu.
Qin Ben agreed immediately, asked Li Shangwen about his martial arts level, and asked him to become a centurion in the army first.
Everyone, have a banquet.
Zhong Yan smiled again and said: "I wonder if the city lord knows the "Wuji Sacred Heart Art"? There is a concubine in the palace who practices this technique, and it is very suitable. However, the technique is incomplete, which is quite a pity. I want to ask the city lord if the capital palace is Is it included?"
"oh?"
Qin Ben looked surprised and said with a smile: "Of course we know "The Wuji Sacred Heart Technique", which was practiced by the Martial Saint in his early years. However, this technique requires very high qualifications for warriors and is more suitable for men. I never thought that your house would have such a technique. The best among women.”
Zhong Yan was amused, Tang Xiaoshu was undercover in the mansion, how could the other party not know the skills practiced by Yan Sandao, who had a high status.
It can be seen that the other party has probably not noticed that Tang Xiaoshu's identity has been revealed.
"There is no need to find the royal family. I have a complete copy of the "Wuji Sacred Heart Art" in my house. I will copy a copy to the mage later."
"That's great. Thank you City Lord. I owe you a favor."
"The Wuji Sacred Heart Technique" is a supreme and profound technique. The incomplete version Zhong Yan bought would cost dozens of spiritual stones, let alone the complete one.
Its status in the martial arts circle is equivalent to the status of Huoyun Sect's Zongzong Zhenzong technique "Tianhuo Gong" in the Yan Kingdom's cultivation world.
Qin Ben waved his hand and said with a smile: "Why should you and I be so polite?"
At this time.
Two women came in style.
The person walking in front was wearing a light pink dress, no makeup, and her face was pretty and her temperament was gentle. At first glance, she looked like a lady, and she was at the peak of the sixth level of Qi Refining.
The woman who followed one step behind was wearing a plain blue girdle, dressed as a maid. She was also a monk, and she looked like she was in the fifth level of Qi Refining in her early twenties.
"Brother Dao, you're all right. It would be rude to keep Brother Dao waiting for a long time." He smiled with his almond-shaped lips, his voice was soft and sweet, making people's ears feel itchy.
Zhong Yan stood up and returned the salute with his hands raised, his expression suspicious, and his words of 'you're fine' made him confused, but his eyebrows looked familiar.
Qin Ziyue blinked: "Six years ago, outside Bailiu Town, Ziyue asked Brother Tao for directions."
Zhong Yan frowned in thought and finally remembered.
It was on his way down the mountain after leaving the sect. Such an incident did happen. A young girl and an old man came forward to inquire about it.
It's just that the other person was a young girl at that time, and now she has grown into a slim girl, but her temperament is quite different.
At that time, an old man and a young man took the initiative to step forward and walked together for a while, but he could not see through the cultivation of the two people, so he was cautious and anxious for a long time.
"It turned out to be Miss Ziyue, but it was Zhong Yan who was forgetful and rude."
Qin Ben laughed out loud and said: "There is such a coincidence, does this count as destiny to come thousands of miles to meet each other? Haha~ sit down and eat and chat!"
Indeed, as Qin Ben said, Qin Ziyue was gentle and generous, spoke softly, and spoke very little compared to his heroic brother, and was quite reserved during the dinner.
A banquet where guests and hosts enjoy themselves.
After the show.
Zhong Yan took the master and servant away directly.
Because Qin Ziyue will not be alone at the wedding banquet by then, he is not planning to hold it alone, and Qin Ben and the parties involved have no objections.
However, Qin Ziyue was different from the girl bought from the Marriage Pavilion. She was considered a noble girl and a rich lady. Zhong Yanyi gave the betrothal letter and left 800 spirit stones and many other belongings as betrothal gifts to show his attention and respect. .
Qin Ben stood in the corridor, watching the group go away, with a smile on his lips, and whispered: "Yan Sandao, this woman is highly valued, but she is a good backup."
…
the other side.
Zhong Yan returned to the mansion and was greeted by Yu Qingyao and Jiang Ping.
"Husband, the yard has been tidied up."
Zhong Yan nodded, pointed at Jiang Ping, smiled at Qin Ziyue and said, "Miss Ziyue will stay here first. She is familiar with the affairs of the house. If you need anything, just ask Ping'er."
"Thank you, Brother Taoist."
Watching the people leaving in the sedan, Zhong Yan pondered for a moment, winked at Yu Qingyao and Dong Cao, went to the side hall study, took out the transmission notes from the storage bag and cast them one by one.
"Zhong Lang, what happened?"
"According to Qin Ben's wishes, he will be less able to speak when he takes up the position of mage retinue next year."
Yu Qingyao was startled and asked, "Didn't you already expect this?"
Zhong Yan nodded and said: "There was still some hope before, but now it is basically certain. If the capital intervenes, most likely it will not let Qingyang loose cultivators compete, but will directly send people over. If Qin Ben wants to leave, then intercept and kill him." It’s inappropriate to follow the mage.”
Yu Qingyao frowned and said: "The Colosseum must also be suspended. Will the market be affected? What are your husband's plans?"
"The Yang family is the mainstay in Yangquanfang City. Yang Yanqing will take care of it in Yangquanfang City. We will not participate in the leadership. A talisman shop has been negotiated long ago. We only share the profits and have little impact."
After saying that, Zhong Yan sighed: "Hey, who would have thought that a small border town would become so lively. Now there are probably nearly a thousand monks in Guangcheng..."
Chatted for a while.
Yan Sandao walked in: "Husband, are you looking for me?"
"We'll talk about it later." Zhong Yan turned to ask, "How about over there at Wutong Lane?"
Yan Sandao: "It's very good. They both practice hard and have sufficient training resources. However, Qi Xiang and Qi Dun's spiritual root qualifications are a bit inferior. They are still at the first level of Qi refining. Qi Dun is better and has reached the peak... "
Dongcao blinked and wondered who "Qixiang" and "Qidun" were. From the names, could they be the illegitimate sons of their husbands?
Not long after, Yuan Zhiqing came in with a surprised expression.
"Done."
Zhong Yan explained the current situation in Qingyang and the situations that Zhongfu may face in the future, and finally said:
"I plan to let Zhong Mansion recuperate and develop in a low-key manner for a long period of time. Everyone will focus on cultivation and improve their strength..."
"Originally, I planned to ask Yang Yanqing for a market shop and open a monk restaurant, but after thinking about it carefully, I decided not to do it."
"At that time, there will be a lot of competition for every shop. Although the Zhongfu is good in Qingyang, it is far from enough to face the sect and the Immortal Cultivation Family..."
"As for cultivation resources, I will soon be able to reach the second level by making talismans. With Zhiqing planting medicine and refining medicine, it will not be a problem to maintain everyone's basic practice. Zhiqing, what do you think?"
Yuan Zhiqing nodded: "I have no problem."
Zhong Yan nodded, looked around at the few people, and finally looked at Yuan Zhiqing and said: "In addition, I plan to have more children. In addition to the ones I am planning to hold a wedding banquet for now, I plan to marry a few more. I would like to ask for your opinion."
Zhong Yan looked at Yu Qingyao again: "Qingyao, where are you?"
Yu Qingyao was speechless. There were so many of them now. This was going against the will of heaven, but she said: "I have no objection."
Dongcao couldn't help but clicked his tongue and counted secretly. Is this going to be a perfect one or a zodiac sign?
Yan Sandao smiled.
Yuan Zhiqing was stunned for a moment, never expecting that Zhong Yan would specifically ask her opinion on such a matter.
She was silent for a while and said: "The birth of a spiritual heir by combining with a mortal woman depends entirely on luck. Even if you use spiritual liquid, you may not be able to produce one out of ten or eight. Of course, if you are lucky, you may get one. If you have an idea, just Can."
How did she know that for Zhong Yan, a mortal woman has the benefits of a mortal woman and can add 'formation experience'. Currently, there are only two in the house, Li Jingqiu and Qiu Jinxi, which is not enough.
Zhong Yan: "Okay, Dongcao will take care of the childbirth matters. Make adjustments and leave them alone if you are busy."
Dongcao: "Yes, husband!"
"Dao'er, you go to Marriage Pavilion. If you want a warrior, it's best if you have the innate realm."
Yan Sandao: "Yes, husband!"
Yu Qingyao said: "Husband, I heard from Mrs. Ping that many aristocratic families in the city mentioned marrying their daughters into the house in their invitations. In fact, some aristocratic families are good and have roots in Qingyang, which will be of great help to us."
It's good to have help, but troubles will come one after another, and you may be asked to come forward for some trivial matters, which is messy and messy.
Zhong Yan shook his head and said: "Forget it, Miss Aristocratic Family, we will talk about it later."
Well negotiated.
Dispersed.
Yan Sandao was extremely happy when he got the bamboo slips engraved with "The Secret of the Infinite Sacred Heart" and deliberately stayed behind to have a passionate 'French kiss' with Zhong Yan.
If Yu Qingyao hadn't returned again, an educational lesson would have been inevitable.
