Huacheng is the largest city on the border of the Great Zhou Kingdom and a hub city on the border with the Zizheng Kingdom and the Dayong Kingdom.
There are many businessmen who go in and out of Huacheng every day, and they are all foreign businessmen from various countries doing business.
Under the control of Zhenyang Dao Palace, there is almost no friction or conflict among the countries in Dongsheng Shenzhou. The borders are stable and prosperous, and there are no wars between the countries. This is one of the few good things that Zhenyang Dao Palace has done. .
But compared with this, the increasing number of refugees and poor people starving to death in various countries is not much less than a war.
In recent years, under the control of Zhenyang Dao Palace, the rich in various countries have become richer, while the poor have become poorer.
This is because all resources are gradually concentrated in the hands of those in the middle and upper classes, while the resources in the hands of the lower class are continuously exploited.
So there is a very strange scene, that is, the countries seem to be very rich and the cities are very prosperous, but there are countless refugees in the country begging everywhere, or making a living from the porridge provided by Zhenyang Dao Palace every day.
"If these people have money, land, and food, why do they believe in our Zhenyang Dao Palace?"
"As long as you take away all their money, land, and grain, and use 30% of these to give them porridge and let them survive, they will be grateful to you and be grateful, and they will naturally believe in you."
"Grandmaster Sanyang's Taoism is really wonderful."
"Yes, you see how miserable they live. As long as they believe in me, Patriarch Sanyang, they can escape from the sea of suffering."
"Good, I praise the founder of Sanyang and the Taoism of Sanyang."
This is the conversation between two disciples of Zhenyang Palace in Huacheng while looking at the porridge-giving scene below. The escape from the sea of suffering they are talking about is a new decree issued by Patriarch Sanyang a few days ago.
That is to compile the refugees who have converted to Zhenyang Dao Palace into 'Tao soldiers'.
The so-called Dao soldiers are soldiers who defend the Dao. What Dao are they defending? Naturally it is the True Yang Dao.
Qiluo, the head of Bixiufang, passed quickly in a carriage in front of Zhenyang Palace, and then returned to Bixiufang in Huacheng.
Today's Bixiu Fang is already a famous dyeing workshop in Huacheng. The master of the first branch is called Qiluo, and the master of the second branch is called Yunluo.
When Qiluo returned to the workshop, she and Yun Luo immediately went to the bedroom in the backyard. The two closed the door, and Qiluo excitedly took out a piece of silk from her arms and said, "The mountain master has come with news."
Yun Luo also said expectantly: "What did the mountain master say? Did he praise us?"
Qiluo carefully unfolded the silk fabric, only opened it for a glance, and then said in surprise: "The mountain master praised us for doing a good job!"
"Great!" Yun Luo clenched her little fists and said happily: "The mountain master praised me again."
"You're praising us!" Qiluo corrected.
Yun Luo nodded and said, "Yes, yes, you are praising us."
Then Qiluo continued to read, but the more she looked, the more wrong she became. At the end, she shed tears.
"You... why are you crying?" Yun Luo was a little surprised, and then asked anxiously: "What... said above?"
Qiluo sobbed a few times, and then said softly: "The mountain master gave us two names."
"Ah?!" Yun Luo opened her mouth immediately when she heard this. After a while, she breathed rapidly and said, "The mountain master... gave us a name?"
"Yeah!" Qiluo said, "The mountain master gave us the surname Zhu. My name is Zhu Yun, and your name is Zhu Xia."
"Zhu Xia...Zhu Xia...Zhu Xia..." Yun Luo chanted the name repeatedly, and then she couldn't control her tears and fell down.
The two of them were sold to the charade by their families when they were very young. They had no names at all. Qiluo and Yunluo were just trumpets given to them by the charade to prove that they were just the playthings of the nobles.
Now Zhu Yuanzhang has given them names after his own surname, firstly to commend them for their previous achievements, and secondly to officially accept them as his own.
At this moment, Qi Luo, Yun Luo, Zhu Yun and Zhu Xia felt like home and had the warmth of home for the first time.
When Zhu Yuanzhang's majestic and stern face reappeared in their minds, they no longer had any fear in their hearts, but only warmth, admiration, and loyalty!
The two girls hugged each other and cried over a cup of tea before they stopped. At this time, Qiluo continued to read the content on the silk.
"The mountain master said that the two of us are now known as Zhu Yun and Zhu Xia, while Qi Luo and Yun Luo are our code names," Qi Luo said.
Yun Luo was a little confused: "Code name?"
Qiluo nodded and said: "The mountain master said that the two of us are now under the jurisdiction of a group called 'Jinyiwei'. From now on, whatever we do, Jinyiwei will directly give us orders. Within Jinyiwei, the two of us will Their secret codenames are Qiluo and Yunluo."
Yun Luo nodded as if she understood, and then asked: "Then who is the leader of this Jin Yiwei? The mountain master?"
Qiluo shook her head and said: "No, the mountain master said that one of his descendants is in charge of the Jin Yiwei. I don't know his name, only his code name."
"What code name?" Yun Luo asked curiously.
Qiluo looked at it carefully and then said slowly: "His code name is 'Shinra'."
...
In Gushan, Zhu Houcong, who had received the command of the Jinyi Guards, was very happy. He was finally the chief official of a powerful department. Although he only had two people under his command, he was much better than Grandpa Huizong.
But even though he was happy, he always felt that something was wrong. What was wrong was the codename 'Shinra'.
So when Zhu Houcong saw Fang Jian coming out of Zhu Yuanzhang's house, he immediately greeted him. First, he bowed and said, "Zhu Houcong pays homage to Master Dafang."
Fang Jian smiled slightly, raised his hand and said, "No need to be polite."
Zhu Houcong stood up, stepped forward and asked, "Master Dafang, I have something I don't understand. I would like to ask Master Dafang to enlighten me."
Fang Jian nodded and said, "Please speak."
Zhu Houcong asked: "Why did the master suggest that we be codenamed 'Shenluo'? Is there any explanation for these two words?"
Fang Jian smiled in his heart. This was just his bad taste. There was no explanation.
But since Zhu Houcong asked sincerely, of course he had to deceive him... Oh no, I just wanted to explain.
I just heard Fang Jian stroke his beard and say: "The divine one is a clever and wonderful net. The Luo one is a network of stars. The divine Luo is a clever and wonderful net that collects the thoughts of the world."
After hearing this explanation, Zhu Houcong felt as if he had cleared away the clouds and seen the blue sky. It turns out that the word "Shenluo" is so powerful!
This code name is good, I like it very much!
Thinking of this, Zhu Houcong immediately bowed and said, "Thank you so much, Master Dafang, for clearing up my doubts. The word "Shen Luo" is so wonderful! Master Dafang is worthy of being a great virtue and a great practitioner, and my disciples admire him very much!"
After sending Zhu Houcong away, Fang Jian was about to return to his monastery when suddenly a fairy light fell from the sky, and then a crisp voice sounded in Fang Jian's mind: "The great envoy has a decree, and Fang Jian receives the decree."
Fang Jian looked up and saw a golden cloud standing there in the sky. The fairy light was shining brightly on the golden cloud, and the sound came from it.
And that piece of Golden Cloud Alchemy is also very familiar. It is the Jinzhao Cloud Light Technique that follows the boy beside Jiutian Xuannv. It is a Jinzhao Royal quasi-spell that can fly freely in the heaven.
The sword light flashed under Fang Jian's feet, and he immediately shot up into the sky and flew straight towards the golden cloud.
