Daqin, Xianyang.
"Your Majesty, the Fourth Young Master wants to see you." Zhao Gao quickly walked into the palace with small steps to report.
Ying Zheng put down the bamboo slips in his hand, raised his eyes to Zhao Gao and said, "Can you say it again?"
"Your Majesty, the Fourth Young Master would like to see you."
"Call."
"Here."
Ying Zhu strode into the palace and said as a monarch and minister: "Your Majesty, Ying Zhu, is here to see you."
"Okay, there are no other people here. We only talk about father and son, not kings and ministers. Aren't you going to travel around the world? Why are you back so soon?" Ying Zheng stepped forward to help Ying Zhu up and said with a smile.
"Father, I have something I want to tell my father personally," Ying Zhu said.
Ying Zheng suddenly became interested, sat back on the couch and asked, "What is it?"
"Father, my son first went to the Song Dynasty. Business in this dynasty was indeed extremely prosperous. With all walks of life supporting each other, the people's livelihood was at least ten times better than that of my country in Great Qin."
"However, wealth attracts people's hearts. With the development of commerce, this law has not been completely perfected. I have also discovered that there are many people who take advantage of the opportunity to make extra money. If Da Qin develops business, it can take this as a warning."
"In addition, one of the main things that Er returned to Qin this time was that he found a strange woman who was quite talented in the tea ceremony, and at the same time obtained some extremely precious and never-before-seen Enlightenment tea seedlings. My father also knew about his dynasty. Especially those literati, besides drinking and writing poems, they also like drinking tea."
"So, I brought this girl back to Da Qin, firstly, to open the Da Qin Tea Ceremony, and also to collect some small fortune for Da Qin, and secondly, to use this person's hands to cultivate Enlightenment Tea and make this tea famous all over the world."
"At that time, the Enlightenment Tea will be available to the whole world, and it will be unique to our country, Da Qin. First, it will attract the frequent arrival of those literati. These people will recite poems and write poems, and if they continue to be influenced by it for a long time, our country, Da Qin, will probably become a great literary figure."
"Secondly, with this tea, we can also take the opportunity to attract and recruit those who are good at tea, people who really have strategies and plans."
After hearing these words, Ying Zheng remained silent for a long time, closing his eyes in deep thought.
Time passed little by little, and all the servants in the palace retreated to wait outside the palace under Ying Zhu's wave. The palace was quiet with only the sound of slight breathing.
I don't know how much time passed, but Ying Zheng opened his eyes and said in a deep voice: "I have thought about it for a long time, and I finally made a decision."
"Zhu'er, my father has granted you a special right today. From now on, no matter where you are or what kind of talented person you meet, as long as you approve it and recruit him, what he should do and what position he should occupy will be determined by you. You ration.”
Ying Zhu was also shocked by this call and said hurriedly: "Father, this matter goes beyond the rules of etiquette."
"Pedantry! Don't you know which is more important, the etiquette system or the foundation of the Qin Dynasty? If you don't accelerate the recruitment of talents now, why wait until wartime? When the enemy attacks, do you rely on the etiquette system to defeat the enemy?" Ying Zheng scolded in a low voice. .
"What the father taught me is that my son understands."
"Okay, you leave him in Xianyang, and my father will let Ning Yi be responsible for settling him."
Ying Zhu scratched his cheek and said, "Um...Father, there is something else I want to report to you."
"Anything else? Tell me." Ying Zheng just picked up the bamboo slips and put them back.
"The Song Dynasty drank tea with fruits, that is, pastries. I wonder if people from other dynasties would drink tea with it in Daqin."
"Furthermore, I'm thinking that after the Wudao Tea becomes famous, it will be rationed every day. After the day's portion is sold out, I can use the pastries to reserve the Wudao Tea for the next day." Ying Zhu said.
Ying Zheng picked up the bamboo slips and said, "Isn't it just that food is needed? That's right. Under Ning Yi's operation, Da Qin's food reserves have more than doubled. I have to say that Ning Yi is indeed a rare genius. I I’ll summon him soon and let him get started on this matter.”
"Everything is subject to Father's arrangements."
"Is there nothing else? Just go down if you don't have anything else. Oh, by the way, if you want to travel, you should leave a day later. Go back and spend more time with my wife."
"I know."
... ...
Two days later.
During this period, in addition to accompanying Xu Weixiong, Ying Zhu also met with Ning Yi. After settling Zhao Pan'er and Sun Sanniang, he set off again.
Of course, as for the past two days, Huang Rong and Mu Guiying stayed in an inn in Xianyang City.
The three of them left Da Qin and set foot in Da Song again.
However, not long after entering the Song Dynasty, I met several waves of people in the world, all of whom were talking about a major martial arts event thousands of miles away.
"Alas! Have you heard? The six major sects included in the Meng Yuan territory are going to besiege Guangmingding of Mingjiao."
"How could we not know this? The Mingjiao is in danger this time."
"Everyone, I have some news. I heard that many members of the Ming Cult have returned this time. It seems that even the White-browed Eagle King Yin Tianzheng and the Green-winged Bat King Wei Yixiao have rushed back to Guangmingding."
"Really? Wow, that would be wonderful. It's just a pity. Such a big event will definitely lead to bloodshed. If we, with low strength, rush to watch the battle, we may be involved."
"It's very true, it's a pity that it's not innate, otherwise we would be qualified to witness it with our own eyes instead of knowing the result afterwards."
... ...
"Turn around, let's go to Guangmingding."
"Ah? Brother, Guangmingding is thousands of miles away. Maybe we can finish the fight if we rush there."
"It can't end so easily. If we work hard, we should be able to get there before the final battle.
Ying Zhu and the others gave up the carriage, got on their horses and ran towards Guangmingding.
At the same time, there was an undercurrent in the world of martial arts, and countless eyes were fixed on Guangmingding.
Ten days later.
On a certain peak in the Kunlun Mountains, three people, Ying Zhu, Huang Rong, and Mu Guiying, were standing here. Looking down, they happened to be Guangmingding, the Holy Land of the Ming Cult.
At this moment, in Guangmingding, the six major sects have surrounded them. On the other hand, except for Yin Tianzheng, the White-browed Eagle King, the rest of the Mingjiao who can be named are sitting on the high platform, tending to their injuries.
"Brother, the Mingjiao's defeat has been decided. Are we rushing so slowly just to see the determined result?" Huang Rong asked in confusion.
"No, if you think about it carefully, although the six major sects and the Mingjiao have been in constant friction for so many years, it has only been a small fight. If they really want to take action, it will only hurt both sides."
"Both of them know this, but why did it get to this point this time? I'm afraid it's not simple. Some people are deliberately provoking disputes. If it's just affecting the martial arts sect, it's okay, but I'm afraid this is just the first step. ....." Ying Zhu said.
Of course he knew that Zhao Min was behind all this, but was it really just Zhao Min? After all, this world is very different from what he knows...
