After bidding farewell to Qinghui, Wei Ling returned to the second underground floor and told the guru and the children that he was going to teach the teacher. The guru and the children felt that it was quite rude and couldn't help but feel ashamed.
The guard selected two large ones from the four remaining spiritual fish, and Jinu enthusiastically experimented with freezing the fish.
Wei Ling briefly packaged the spirit fish, found Qingfu's residence, and handed it over to the servants in Lord Qingfu's residence.
Since Wei Ling's status reached the level of county magistrate, he was considered a member of the empire's bureaucracy. He could freely check the residence information of Yasi Empire officials in the city.
In fact, Wei Ling understood that the reason why Qingfu joked about Shu Xiu was actually telling all the officials and subordinates in disguise that Wei Ling was his student and he was serious.
Wei Ling was naturally grateful for Qing Hui's silent care.
In the process of returning to the courtyard, Wei Ling strolled on the streets on the second floor, feeling the mental state of the crowd.
Since the war subsided and the empire had won a comprehensive victory, the strategic buffer to the west has increased a lot. The calm demeanor in Iasi County has returned again, and it is much more relaxed and calm than the solemn worry before the war.
Life has completely returned to normal. People's attention is once again focused on the daily trivialities of life, considering their own position, future income, their children's future and goals, and various other very individual directions, which is similar to the pre-war Welling. The mental state samples collected were extremely diverse.
Wei Ling returned to the small courtyard and saw Li Lingyou already bored in the living room drinking tea and chatting with Ji Nu.
It seems that this neighbor will come over every day for the foreseeable future.
Seeing his eldest brother coming back, Jinnu was happy and busy making tea for Wei Ling.
Li Lingyou smashed his mouth and said:
"Brother Welling, why don't we take some time to go to Lake Jordan again?"
Wei Ling laughed and cursed:
"You guys, aren't you worried about bringing disaster to those fish?"
Li Lingyou was startled and realized that Wei Ling already knew that he had left yesterday's fish eating incident to the forum of Jixia Academy. He smiled awkwardly:
"Hehe, I guess even if those guys traveled thousands of miles away, they would still come back empty-handed. Not everyone can catch those spiritual fish."
"Well, that's true. Why are you so free? Where is your fifth brother?"
"Yes, the war is over, the main rewards have been distributed, and the special rewards are expected to be gradually implemented in batches. I am talking about G205 metal... The fifth brother has also returned to the imperial capital and just left today.
He said that they were all members of the family and there was no need to say goodbye, so he left directly.
With the great improvement of the strategic buffer on the Western Front, the empire should now be busy re-formulating the staffing, rotation system, information system construction, job responsibilities regulations, disposal procedures, evaluation and assessment standards of the three major military observation offices... These are too complicated It's time to keep those smart officials busy.
As for the Legionnaires and Combat Warlocks, it was actually easier. "
Wei Ling nodded in approval:
"Well, indeed, there is another problem. The militia inspection system will probably be revised. It doesn't make much sense to go on inspection now.
I wonder whether a new system similar to that of wilderness hunters, gold diggers or pangolins will be built to train new recruits and integrate special material collection, physical training, survival skills, etc. to achieve the purpose of training subsequent soldiers. . "
"Brother Welling said it is possible, but it is also possible that the militia system will be abolished directly and replaced by a recruit training system... Who knows, how will your next work be arranged?"
"Waiting for the results and news."
Li Lingyou naturally knew about Wei Ling and thought for a moment:
"That's right. If there's no follow-up, just come back to the Imperial Capital with me."
"what?"
"Meet the Valve Master. After receiving my order from the Valve Master, why don't you go back and take a look? The eight hundred miles of rivers and mountains of the imperial capital and the 30 million people are still waiting for us to inspect."
"Haha, that's fine. I'm free now. Your service period in Iasi is probably over. Do you still continue to serve in the army? Which county will you go to next?"
Li Lingyou's smile was a little playful:
"I plan to follow you and have adventures with you. If I meet an expert and give me a secret book to improve my mental power, wouldn't I be able to enter the intermediate level in no time, haha!"
Wei Ling couldn't laugh or cry:
"You think you are more beautiful than you look... Let me think about it, if there are no other circumstances, we will go to the imperial capital first, take the children with us, walk there, read thousands of books, and still have to travel thousands of miles."
Shibaro's smile froze:
"It's nearly 5,000 kilometers from Yaxi to the Imperial Capital. We have to cross countless mountains, rivers, and vast forests... to walk back, are you sure?"
…
The Eastern Land of the Great Xia Empire, the heartland.
The fertile Xia Shui Plain is surrounded on three sides by the Huanglong Plateau to the north, the West Kunlun Mountains to the west, and the Taibai Mountains to the south. Only in the east, the torrential Xia Shui flows into the rolling Xuanyuan River, forming a majestic military must-have. place.
The Guanhe River is congested, the land of abundance, 800 miles of rivers and mountains, and 30 million people, is the Xia Shui Plain with abundant resources and natural treasures.
The imperial capital Chang'an is located in the middle of the Xia River Plain, with the rolling Xia River flowing through the city.
For thousands of years, Chang'an has been quietly on both sides of the Xia River, blessing the people of Daxia. From the barbaric era, ancient times, ancient times and ancient times, it has been the birthplace and development place of the civilization of the Daxia people, and it is also the most important place. An important and prosperous place, even during the Great Annihilation, it did not suffer direct nuclear bomb destruction.
In the Age of Divine Enlightenment, this place was naturally the most critical place in the empire. The "Weiyang" barrier, like the nine major counties such as Yaxi and Bohu, covered an area of 100 kilometers in diameter.
The fifty-meter-high metal city wall shelters countless royal palaces, ministries, offices, health offices, military stations, and scientific research institutes within the barrier.
Looking at it, the most eye-catching thing is the towering Weiyang Tower. It has a traditional Daxia style with double eaves and a hilltop roof. It has 99 floors and a height of nearly 300 meters.
Weiyang Tower is the tallest building on the entire Xia Shui Plain, and is naturally the main body of the Weiyang barrier.
Most of the tower's body is made of a dark golden alloy material, which looks extremely solemn and magnificent against the dark background of the city.
Whether it is in the morning glow, under the setting sun, in the moonlight, or in a storm, the faint brilliance of Weiyang Tower is the most beautiful centering axis in the hearts of the citizens of the imperial capital.
Chang'an County naturally has multiple underground floors. The fourth floor at the bottom is still for energy, mining, smelting and some factories. The third floor is for various factories and military and civilian reserve warehouses. The second floor is for most of the imperial officials and some The residence of soldiers and magicians.
What makes Chang'an County different from other counties is that there are a large number of residential areas outside the city wall.
At the very beginning after the Great Annihilation, the Great Xia Emperor did not have such a large population, and the several layers inside the county city were enough to accommodate the population at that time.
As the radiation on the ground level decreases, the population grows, and all the great lords, aristocratic families, and noble families move in, the core area of the empire cannot accommodate it.
In fact, the living needs of the four great clans cannot be accommodated on the second floor of the inner city. Therefore, the four great clans, Wang, Xie, Li, and Yang, each selected a large area of land in the four directions outside the city to build their own large estates. .
In recent decades, as families large and small from all over the empire have accelerated their approach and gathering to the imperial capital, and have built mansions on the periphery, the imperial capital has become increasingly huge, and the southernmost part is even close to the Taibai Mountains.
Therefore, although the empire has a population of 150 million, 30 million people live in Chang'an County alone. Therefore, no matter from which perspective, the imperial capital is the undisputed political, economic, scientific research, and cultural center of the empire.
Xiao Jingmo didn't stay in Yaxi for half a day. He followed the temporarily established staff, command and supervision system for the Yaxi battle and returned to the imperial capital in time.
He could have rested for a few days and then went to the Prime Minister's Mansion to hand over the report. However, after learning from the Weiyang barrier information that the Prime Minister was in Xiu Mu these days, he decided to go to Xie Clan to pay a visit to the Imperial Prime Minister Xie Xinyi first.
Sitting in his own small and medium-sized vehicle, Mr. Xiao overlooked the familiar imperial capital below, reviewing all aspects of Yaxi and his party with a calm expression.
Xie Clan's manor is located in the northwest corner of Chang'an County. It occupies an extremely large area, covering hundreds of acres. In front of the solemn mansion, there is even a large square that can accommodate two large vehicles.
Xiao Jingmo is naturally a frequent visitor to Xie Clan. The vehicle has just docked, and the mansion's detection system has already learned the vehicle's owner's identity information through the Weiyang barrier.
The person who receives the Prime Minister's chief subordinate officer is definitely not an ordinary servant.
Xie Clan's chief steward, Xie Changwei, who had white hair and beard and was in high spirits, personally welcomed him out.
The ancestors of the old housekeeper were not named Xie. No one knew their specific surname, because more than a hundred years before the Great Annihilation, their ancestors were unemployed vagrants who wandered to Chang'an. They were taken in by the Xie family and took care of the general affairs for the Xie family for generations. Later, he directly used the surname Xie Clan.
For more than two hundred years, Xie Mingwei's family has been completely integrated into the Xie clan, but their identities have not changed. Although they are not direct descendants of the Xie clan, they have studied and practiced with the Xie clan's children. Their descendants are all affiliated with the Xie clan. His identity, serving as an official, joining the army or running business in various parts of the empire, is no different from that of a direct descendant of the Xie clan.
The old man is very smart. In addition to being loyal to his family, he is also very shrewd and meticulous in dealing with people. He is highly regarded by Xie Lingxiao, the head of the Xie Clan.
"Haha, Jingmo is here. Please come in quickly. The eldest master is in seclusion for cultivation. It is inconvenient to disturb you. The eldest son is out. The second master is waiting for you at Zhilanxuan."
Xiao Jingmo hurriedly bowed and saluted.
In the entire imperial capital, this old man is the only one who calls the head of the Xie clan the eldest master and the prime minister of the empire the second son:
"How dare you work to welcome the old man? It's your sin, it's your sin!"
Xie Mingwei smoothed his white beard, looked at the elegant Xiao Jingmo from head to toe, and laughed:
"Jingmo is so graceful, it seems he didn't suffer much in Yaxi, haha."
"Thanks to my lord, if everything goes well, it doesn't count as living up to the sacred mandate."
"That's good, go in, go in."
Xiao Jingmo followed Xie Mingwei and entered the Xie clan's grand and quiet mansion.
