Ying Zheng really couldn't refuse Wu Chanti's request.
Firstly, the Jingjue Guidong Clan has been helping the Tiancheng lineage to create secret stones for thousands of years. They are originally half of the Tiancheng lineage, and they also know some ancient secrets.
Secondly, Wu Chan said that he wanted to become a disciple of Ji Fa, how could Ying Zheng refuse?
Besides, Li Si is also Ji Fa's apprentice and an envoy of the Tiancheng lineage. He can also meet the divine beasts normally and travel between Jiuyou and Jiuxiao.
Since Li Si can do it, why can't Wu Chan?
Moreover, Ying Zheng originally planned to tell her all the secrets. When the dragon veins were completely repaired, he might even take her and even more Jingjue clan members to Jiuyou.
"Okay, I will take you back to Xianyang." Ying Zheng said, "As for whether Master will agree or not, I have no say."
Seeing that he agreed, Wu Chan chuckled and said, "Okay, I'll come and ask Master when the time comes."
It's been a while since I left Xianyang in the blink of an eye. Since everything is going well in Beidi, I will go back to Xianyang directly.
Since Nan Su's death, Ying Zheng was worried about even going out, so he was anxious to go back in case something happened again in the harem or the court.
Before leaving, Ying Zheng transferred Yang Duanhe to Shangdang County as the county guard, and was ready to send troops to respond to Wang Jian at any time.
Beidi County was handed over to Shen Jun to plan and construct the city and farmland.
Midsummer has arrived, and what I saw along the way were the busy scenes of the Jingjue people.
Those who like farming have been allocated land allocated by the court. Although most of it is wasteland and they have to pay a small amount of rent, according to Ying Zheng's order, they will not have to pay taxes for at least three years.
Those who are happy to herd also use the money they got from selling their livestock in Jingjue to buy new cattle and sheep. Many of the breeds brought from Jingjue have also been crossed with local cattle and sheep, just waiting to give birth to calves in the coming year. Beef and lamb.
Those who love to learn crafts also learn smelting, weaving, tea making, and medicinal herbs in workshops everywhere.
Seeing that the Jingjue tribe had integrated into the group, Ying Zheng felt both relieved and filled with satisfaction.
Back in Xianyang City, Ying Zheng held a ceremony to canonize a beloved man specifically for Wu Chan.
At this point, Wu Chan also had an official title in the harem, and her title as the Queen of Excellence was officially eliminated.
In the palace specially set up by Ying Zheng for Wu Chan, Zhao Ji and several princesses gathered here to talk.
After Mrs. Huayang passed away, Zhao Ji took over as the master of the harem.
"What a handsome daughter-in-law." Zhao Ji said with a smile, "I like her as much as I like your mother."
Wu Chan said with some shame: "Wuchan is new to Xianyang and does not understand Chinese etiquette and palace rules. I hope my mother and sisters will take care of me."
Zhao Ji said: "It's easy to talk. It's easy to talk. My mother will teach you these red tape matters in person."
"Then there is Empress Lao Mu." Wu Chan said.
Hu Yu said from the side: "If you want to learn to ride a horse and hunt, I can also teach you."
Several ladies were amused by her.
"Jing Jueguo specializes in riding on horseback, and she still needs you to teach her." Zhao Ji said with a smile, "Now that she has the ability to give birth to a son, you should teach her."
As a result, the topic was brought up on how to have a son, and there were many unpleasant remarks.
In the blink of an eye, Wu Chan got to know his mother-in-law and several sisters in the harem. It seemed that he was fully prepared, which surprised Ying Zheng a little.
Not long after the funeral, the palace had always been deserted and a little depressing. Now a new princess has been added to the palace, which has somewhat diluted the previous gloom.
Perhaps she was getting older, so after the dinner, Zhao Ji took Wu Chan back to her bedroom, chatting endlessly with questions, and later simply left Wu Chan to sleep at her place.
Taking advantage of this time, Ying Zheng came to Hu Yu's palace.
Fusu and Hu Hai may have been tired from playing, so they fell asleep under the care of the maid.
In the hazy night, Ying Zheng looked at Hu Yu's delicate face and asked softly: "How is Fusu doing these days?"
"Very well-behaved, but sometimes he gets distracted occasionally." Hu Yu responded, "I think he still hasn't completely emerged from the shadows, and his temperament is a little more withdrawn than before."
Ying Zheng sighed softly: "There is nothing we can do about it. You must be more careful and take care of him in the future, so that he can feel that his mother has not left him."
"It's natural." Hu Yu nodded and said, "Sister Nansu and I are like sisters. Although we have different temperaments, we often confide in each other's concerns. Now that she has passed away, I will definitely fulfill her responsibilities as a mother for her. .”
"I believe you can do it, but I'm afraid Fusu doesn't think so." Ying Zheng said.
Hu Yu blinked and said, "Now that the king is back and the weather is getting hotter, we should take Fusu out for a walk to make him feel better."
"That's true," Ying Zheng said, "Then let's take a tour of Xianyang City together with Wu Chan tomorrow."
Hu Yu said: "What is there to see in Xianyang City? What I want to say is to take him out to see the beautiful mountains and rivers of Da Qin, so that he can open his mind and understand that he is a prince, and there are more things waiting for him in the future. Do it so he can get out as soon as possible.”
"Well, it's up to you." Ying Zheng nodded and said, "I'll make a plan tomorrow after I finish handling the government affairs. By the way, there's one more thing. I've told Wu Chan about the maple leaves I gave you before. If she wants to go Look at the maple leaves, don’t have any other ideas.”
"What can I think? If the king asks me to return Maple Leaf to her, I have no objection." Hu Yu said with a smile, "But you don't know it yet, Maple Leaf is already happy!"
"Are you happy?" Ying Zheng was slightly surprised, "You said she is pregnant with a foal?"
"Yes." Hu Yu's voice became louder, "When it foals, you will return Maple Leaf to Wu Chan. I only need the foal. Then I will raise the foal and give it to Yu'er."
This is the promise Hu Yu made to Gong Ziyu in Chu State, and she will certainly not forget it.
"This is good news." Ying Zheng said equally happily, "If we can cultivate a large number of hard-earned horses here, we won't have to spend a lot of money to buy them from Dawan Kingdom in the future."
Speaking of Dawan Kingdom, Ying Zheng suddenly thought of something and slapped his forehead.
"What's wrong with you, Your Majesty?" Wu Chan asked.
"Forgot, forgot." Ying Zheng said with a bitter smile, "I forgot about the envoys from Dawan and Persia."
When returning from Jingjue, Ying Zheng led the team at the front. In the middle were the people of Jingjue and the envoys from Dawan and Persia, and at the end were the rear of Jingjue's army.
So Ying Zheng arrived at Jiayuguan first to join Wang Jian, and then immediately received Li Si's flying pigeon message and hurried back to Xianyang.
The Dawan and Persian envoys followed Wu Chan to Didao, while Wu Chan went straight to Beidi County, and Kukanqi accompanied Prince Moder to Xianyang under the protection of his guards.
By the time they arrived in Xianyang, Ying Zheng had already set off for Beidi.
So it is equivalent to someone traveling thousands of miles to visit you, but you left them at home and ignored them for more than a month.
"They are being looked after by Sima Jie and others, and they are living a comfortable life during this period." Hu Yu said with a smile, "I don't know how poor they are, but when they saw our things, they kept exclaiming , it seems like I haven’t seen anything.”
"Hahaha..." Ying Zheng laughed and said, "China is a land of abundance, rich in products, and many things are really unique. Otherwise, why would people come all the way to buy things from us."
"That's right." Hu Yu pursed his lips and smiled, "It's just that their behavior is too funny. You should answer them correctly tomorrow."
Ying Zheng said with a smirk on his face: "Before I answer them correctly, I have to answer you correctly first, otherwise even Maple Leaf will find fault."
"You hate it, ugh..."
In the morning of the next day, Ying Zheng dealt with a lot of backlogged political affairs, and then announced the arrival of two envoys.
In the meeting hall, King Qin sat upright and said eloquently: "A while ago, something happened in my palace, which caused neglect of the two special envoys. I hope you will bear with me."
King Mo De Qin laughed: "There is no need to be scornful. I have been really good these days. Until now, I haven't tasted all the various delicacies."
"Why don't you, King Qin, come and stay in the palace for a few days." Ying Zheng said with a smile, "The royal chefs in the palace are worse than those outside. Guan Bao will make you eat and you will never forget it."
"Okay, okay." Merede came and refused, "If you don't have time, I'll trouble you, and you can stay here for a few years."
Ying Zheng: "..."
Why doesn't this guy know how to be polite?
Kukanqi quickly said from the side: "I'm afraid it won't work if I stay here for too long. I have to go back to Dawan for business, and King Mode Qin also has to escort the goods back to the King of Persia for a look."
Ying Zheng breathed a sigh of relief and said, "It seems that you have almost selected the goods."
Mod nodded: "The selection is almost complete, and the cargo list is also listed. If Daqin does not have enough quantity at the moment, you can still purchase from the countries to the east."
After that, a guard presented a list.
Ying Zheng took a general look and saw that the goods were common, but this quantity...
"You bought so much, could it be the quantity for several years?" Ying Zheng asked in surprise.
Moder smiled and said: "King Qin, you must know that our population in Persia is not a small number to begin with. What's more, by transporting these goods back, we might be able to earn some money from the Arabs and Aryans."
It seems that Moder has already made a plan.
"On this list, there are some goods that the Qin Dynasty does not have enough, and we need to purchase additional goods." Ying Zheng thought for a moment, and then said, "I happened to have an envoy visiting Chu State, so I will write him a letter and ask him to buy more goods. return."
Moder patted his pocket and said confidently: "King Qin, just buy it, my gold is already on the way. It must be here in the next few days."
What I'm waiting for is your words.
"That's very good." Ying Zheng smiled and said, "Then please invite the two special envoys to stay in Xianyang for a longer period of time. We will hold a banquet in the evening so that you can also taste the royal court's delicacies and wine."
Merde's greed has been aroused, and he swallowed his saliva and nodded repeatedly.
Later, Merde and Kukanchi each came up with a covenant, which they had written after careful study these days.
Ying Zheng read it carefully and saw that it contained not only an agreement on trade, but also a military alliance.
Obviously, both Dawan and Persia were somewhat afraid of the Huns continuing to expand westward.
Ying Zheng slightly revised the two covenants and then showed them to them. After both parties confirmed that there were no problems, Zhao Gao rewrote it again, and the three parties stamped the covenant.
After seeing off the two envoys for now, Ying Zheng changed his clothes and hurried to the Treasure Pavilion of Sima Mansion.
If he hadn't brought Wu Chan into the palace, Ying Zheng would have come to see Ji Fa as soon as he returned to Xianyang.
"How was this trip?" Ji Fa asked with a smile, looking at King Qin whose face was glowing red.
Ying Zheng gave an overview of the Yinshan trip.
"When do you plan to send the best ghost hands to Yinshan?" Ji Fa asked.
"Let's finish the busy days." Ying Zheng said, "After answering the two envoys correctly, I want to take Wu Chan to Jiuyou. Do you think you can accept her as a disciple?"
Ji Fa actually had this intention for a long time, so he nodded and responded: "Our Tiancheng lineage has been turning to the Guidong clan for help since ancient times. Now that you have brought them to China, if you accept Wu Chan as your disciple, it will be complete."
"Master, just agree." Ying Zheng changed the topic, "Then can you take the opportunity to recruit more disciples?"
"Disciple?" Ji Fa didn't understand.
Ying Zheng explained: "I want to bring Fusu directly into the Tiancheng lineage, let him understand that there are many more important things to do, and train his character."
Ji Fa laughed: "Your son, you have the final say."
