Chapter 0355: Sudden Change

Half of the silver white sword embryo was exposed, with a gentle nature that looked profound and unpredictable. Time passed like this, until the Dragon Maiden came over quietly and remained silent.

Jingyu, you're back. Just a moment. "Ye Qing slowed down his formation, calmed down the intense sword sounds, and allowed it to refine normally on its own.

Opening her eyes, she looked at Yan Yun and couldn't help but laugh: "This large formation gold position is good for your water vein cultivation. Normally, your sister would invite you to come, but she wouldn't. Why did she come now? By the way, where is your sister

Henyun furrowed her brows with a hint of melancholy, and her black eyes were deep. She looked at Ye Qing for a while, until she felt a little puzzled. She then flattened her mouth and stood up, saying, "I called you to have lunch

Ye Qing still has to do the finishing work, so she didn't take it seriously and said, "Let's go back together later

The Dragon Maiden still had a temper and snorted, "No need, when I came, the Empress Dowager had left food, so I went back to the pavilion

Did you take gun medicine

A slight sense of excitement was her norm. Although Ye Qing felt a bit different and prepared to go over and ask, soon Lv Shangjing and Jiang Chen arrived, and the military and political affairs report overwhelmed him.

Lv Shangjing reported good news: "My lord, the Jiang family is promoting and recommending in Shanzhu County. We have learned that the newly recruited Nanlian Bo Guang is recruiting talented sorcerers, and two more sorcerers without families have come to join us. Although they are guests and not entirely part of my family, they are still providing assistance, allowing me to send four engineering teams to greatly accelerate the construction of formations and the collection of funds

It's just that this has caused a commotion. Several families that we recruited by the sorcerer have all withdrawn from the alliance, indicating that they have formed a hatred, "Lv Shangjing said, shaking her head." This is a sorcerer, a real force that can lift a table... I guess Cang Guangren wakes up in the middle of the night when he sleeps

Ye Qing quickly instructed the signing of various reports and casually commented, "The Cang family may have taken the lead or had some regrets, but at this point, they can only hold on and hope to hold on until the governor's intervention in the future - regardless of them, have there been any abnormal military movements around them

There has been no movement in the imperial court's state army, and the same is true in Lord Lu Ming's report, "Zhou Feng reported military intelligence:" The bandits in the counties and prefectures of Zhou have been basically suppressed, but some small families have been wiped out, and there are also some wandering soldiers who have entered our county, some of whom do not have black seals and have been arrested and interrogated to be spies from noble families

Ye Qing paused for a moment and turned to Ji Caizhu, saying, "Mr. Ji is responsible for external reception. Has any aristocratic family expressed this before

Ji Caizhu presented a gift list: "The Lin family of Shangshui County, who had cooperated with a weaving factory before, sent their legitimate son to visit, ostensibly to congratulate Ye Bangyan on his promotion to the rank of fifth grade Hanlin and honorary earl. I thought that what the envoy said was not important, what was important was that he came as a gesture

He said with a smile: "Of course, I asked the envoy to buy the same big array as the Ye family. In line with the principle of friendly consultation, I deplored that the price of interest was reduced to 350000 taels... spirit weapons are not included!"

This is slaughtering a fat pig, "Ye Qing chuckled," Did he agree

Agreed, "said Ji Caizhu, but this sentence made all the courtiers look at each other and show their approval.

Ye Qing raised her eyebrows and understood the purpose of the courtiers coming together. It was obvious that the establishment of the Martial Arts Division, even the guest level Martial Arts Division, was a true display of force that made some restless wealthy families and even county lords calm down and forcefully suppress their minions.

This is an important turning point, and there will be corresponding changes in the handling of external affairs by the Ye family in the future.

Okay, "Ye Qing commented briefly, then continued to handle the affairs.

The uneven alliance was ignored, but with the complete subordination of the Cao and Mo families, many middle and poor households took root and sought refuge, with the Ye family as the core within a radius of forty miles. Although it appeared to be under the rule of the court, it was essentially under the Ye family's control.

According to statistics, the population under its jurisdiction has reached 30000, doubling and reaching the level of a market town.

Lu Ming ignored this and only sent two tax collectors over. In fact, he received intelligence from the yamen about spies from various counties and even aristocratic families outside the county, and made the same accurate judgment as Ye Qing.

But what the two of them didn't know was that reality was more interesting than they thought. Some of the Yu family envoys were given out with courtesy by several noble families on the same day, and these envoys ended the task of crisscrossing in this shameful way, with their faces blackened.

The envoys of the Yu family are all experienced negotiators who know that this move marks the recognition of the Ye family's strength by the prefectural lords, no longer considering it as a big and useless fat, but as equally dominant carnivorous beasts - and as is well known, when two beasts fight, the passing beasts will only sniff their noses and turn around to find their own food.

In chaotic times, the most abundant thing is fatty meat, and the first unlucky ones will never be meat eaters

However, the standards for measuring fatty meat and meat eaters are always relative, with the entire state shaking three times with a single stomp. Here, the standard of measurement is based on the level of noble families in the county.

They have gone through four to five hundred years or even a thousand years without collapsing, knowing their own strength and when to target them. This is the last period before entering the underworld, where exploration, mergers, alliances... are destined to be busy.

Although they have not yet received recognition for their achievements in the Heavenly Court and cannot intimidate the county lords, the titles bestowed by the imperial court, especially the title of Nanlian Bo, have greatly shaken the county-level tycoons. As soon as the plaque of the martial arts team led by Qianqian Zhenren was raised, it almost immediately resisted the Ye family's game disadvantage in the county.

Therefore, some wealthy people may rush to hug their thighs.

Ye Qing was lost in thought, recalling the fortune she had watched this morning, and just smiled.

The Ye family is actually not inferior to the prestigious families of the county, but the only thing they lack now is their status - neither Nanlian Bo nor the fifth rank Hanlin can officially open a mansion and build teeth!

Unfortunately, but let's deal with things first, so everything was normal until it was late for dinner.

As it was getting late, Ye Qing, who had been tired all day, was in good spirits and entered the inner courtyard. At this time, many maidservants were putting on the lights. As Ye Qing walked, she saw a maid coming over, who seemed to be Cao Baijing's personal maid. She asked, "What do you want

Oh, it's the young master! "The maid was fifteen or sixteen years old, with bright eyes and white teeth. She quickly said," Just now, the two ladies asked me to ask. I'm here specifically to find the young master, and I don't want to run into him here

Ye Qing responded nonchalantly, "I know, is it going to be delayed? I'll go over now

Immediately entering the courtyard, following the corridor into the restaurant, Ye Qing couldn't help but laugh when she saw several young girls busy, each beautiful and captivating. Looking at the beauties under the lamp was even more enchanting.

As a matter of fact, with the growth of status, there are more and more beautiful girls around. Apart from the others, just a few servant girls have beautiful and moving eyebrows, but they have sisters of the Dragon Maiden, Qian Qian and Cao Baijing, as well as Zhou Ling and Jiang Zinan. They really have no other thoughts.

Moreover, he really couldn't bear to disrupt the harmonious and warm atmosphere that had been refined and developed.

If one is insatiable in greed, even Qianqian may feel melancholic.

With a quick glance, I saw two empty seats above the large round dining table. It was a bit eye-catching when family members were gathering, so I couldn't help but turn my head and ask Cao Baijing, "Where are they

At this point, before he could start eating, Cao Baijing picked up his favorite dish with a public chopsticks and casually said, "I heard that I was practicing in the pavilion and had someone send it over

Oh. "Ye Qing nodded, practicing the most, and started using chopsticks.

In the bright glass lights, the dinner was very sumptuous, with a wide variety of dishes. Not only were the colors, aromas, and flavors delicious, but everyone had their favorite food in front of them. However, it must be said that Qianqian and Diaochan were used to being ladies, even if they ate quickly, they were still orderly, unlike someone who wolfed down their food.

Sent it over at noon, when Xiaoyuan closed the market and returned, she said she only made one serving... "Qianqian picked up a dish for Ye Qing, pursed her lips silently, and whispered in secret," Did your husband make Sister Yun angry again

It's nothing... "Ye Qing took a few more bites and responded through voice transmission," Don't worry, I'll go up and ask about Jingyu Gu Jue later, and just tease her along the way

Qianqian paused for a moment and frowned, "Speaking of which, I haven't seen Sister Jingyu today

She... "Ye Qing thought for a moment and remembered meeting Henyun this morning. With a sudden jolt in her heart, she couldn't help but say," Jing'er, Lingling, have you seen Jingyu

The women looked at each other in confusion, shaking their heads.

You guys eat first, I'll go take a look. "Ye Qing felt a hint of ominous gloom floating in her heart, and immediately put down her chopsticks and went out.

On a winter night, the cold wind blows on the path, and the stars on the hillside are silent. The Golden Jade Pavilion soon appears in front of us, silently guarding the dark night sky.

Ye Qing quickly pushed the door open and entered.

There was no one in the White Jade Hall, only layers of spiritual light surging up to welcome the male master back. All the magic formations, whether bright or dark, had extended their permissions to him, and the spiritual rhinoceros reflected and scanned all over, leaving no one.

Ye Qing didn't look closely anymore and stood there in a daze. In an instant, the ominous haze in her heart grew heavier and heavier, which was a mysterious and profound premonition.

Damn it, I didn't see it when I looked at Qi this morning - I still can't see the changes in Qi at this level clearly now! "Ye Qing thought to herself and hurriedly walked towards the Spirit Pool.

There is no one in each room, only the strong spiritual surge of the artificial blessed spiritual pool can interfere with divine consciousness and block exploration.

Pushing open the golden silk door, the quiet Spirit Pool came into view. He saw the familiar figure of Hate Cloud lying by the pool, lost in thought. Ye Qing's heart relaxed and she smiled, "What, are you feeling uncomfortable

Henyun raised his head and glanced at him, his eyes pure black with an indescribable melancholy.

No... Ye Qing's heart tightened, and she withdrew her smile and circled around the pool. She knew that the dragon clan had a love for bathing, but Jingyu wouldn't show off naked when she came, she would always get up early to change clothes.

There was no one in the changing room, and Ye Qing's heart suddenly felt a sense of time and space. Looking back at the aggrieved expression on Yan Yun's flat mouth, he suddenly understood something.

Alright... go ahead, where's your sister? "Ye Qing sat down and asked the morning question, pinching her troubled eyebrows and exhaling," Go ahead

... on the Trapped Dragon Cliff, "Henyun fell silent for a moment before whispering in a choked tone.
