Chapter 760: Build the Dynasty
Chapter 760: Build the Dynasty
Build a great dynasty and a prosperous capital.
The atmosphere in the entire Chu Palace is now extremely depressing. The Chu King and his wife are quite easy-going and will not blame their servants at will.
But in recent days, the servants in the palace dared not even breathe, for fear that they would do something wrong and get into trouble.
The reason for this, of course, is that the eldest daughter of the palace has not been seen since she escaped that day.
Although the soul lamp in the mansion is still there, indicating that the young lady is still alive and well, the news that Mr. Sai ran away from home and escaped from marriage has spread throughout the capital.
These rumors became more and more outrageous. Some said that she was chosen as a disciple by a hermit master, some said that she had an affair with someone and eloped, and there were even rumors that the eldest daughter of the Prince of Chu's Mansion was actually a fairy who was banished from heaven and now ascended to heaven.
There are so many different opinions that it is difficult to tell the truth from the false.
The Chu King and his wife both had a few more white hairs on their temples. On the one hand, they were worried about their daughter's safety. On the other hand, it was because the Queen had ordered this marriage, and the Minister of Rites was a senior official in the court. Even the Chu King didn't know how this matter would end.
"Husband, how about trying the soul-summoning secret technique again?"
King Chu shook his head and said, "I don't know who helped this evil creature. He has used his magical powers to cut off the soul lamp and even the blood connection with it."
"I have already asked the most skilled monk to help me, but I still got nothing."
Princess Chu showed some fear on her face and said, "What kind of expert do you think Wan'er could know? Could it be that she was really abducted by an evil cultivator from outside the domain?"
The King of Chu frowned and shook his head, saying, "With the City God protecting the country in the city, there is no way any evil cultivator can sneak in."
"Besides, the protective amulet that I gave her did not activate, which means she was not hurt."
"Now I am worried that this evil creature has been deceived by those families, and his ultimate target is me!"
When Princess Chu heard this, she was even more worried and asked, "If they are the ones who are causing trouble, what should we do? How about I go talk to my sister about it?"
The King of Chu waved his hand and said coldly: "There is no evidence for this matter. What's the point of you going to the Queen to say more? If you hadn't taken the initiative to propose to the Queen, how could you be in such a passive situation today?"
"Is it possible that my daughter of Chuxiong is having trouble finding a husband?"
Princess Chu retorted, "Were you not very satisfied with the marriage with the Minister of Rites? Now you come to criticize me again."
As she spoke, she felt more and more aggrieved, and cried, "If you hadn't taken Wan'er to the training grounds to practice swordplay when she was little, how could she have developed such a personality?"
"No worries about marriage. Are you planning to marry her to a rough guy in your army? I tell you, I will never agree to it."
When Chu Xiong saw his wife crying, he quickly put away his airs and comforted her, "I was just worried about Wan'er's safety, so I spoke without thinking. Now that such a big thing has happened in the mansion, please don't be angry with me."
Although the King of Chu was one of the four great princes of Dajian, he was not without enemies in the court.
On the contrary, as the most trusted minister of the current emperor, he has made many enemies!
This is also the main reason why their daughters have difficulty getting married.
Therefore, this marriage between Chu and Liu is a scene that many people do not want to see.
He believed that it was most likely these people who had persuaded his daughter to elope and helped her conceal her identity.
Princess Chu wiped her tears and said in a sobbing voice: "I am not angry with you, and I don't care about your enemies. I just want you to find Wan'er as soon as possible!"
"Didn't you say you had already mobilized the Sima of the Five Cities? Is there any news?
The King of Chu shook his head and sighed, "Most of the detectives in the city have already been dispatched to arrest him, but Wan'er must have made full preparations."
"The various items in her room are now spread all over the city. Even if we follow the map and check them bit by bit, it will take a long time."
"Besides, some things are even harder to track down once they enter someone else's house, which is why the investigation is a bit slow."
As Chu Xiong spoke, his face turned ashen. His daughter really did not take his old face seriously at all. The items in the boudoir of an unmarried daughter of a wealthy family, especially the clothes, were spread all over the city.
It really brought shame to the Chu Palace and the King of Chu, making them the laughing stock of all the princes and nobles. If it weren't for the fact that he and the princess only had one daughter, Chu Xiong really wanted to kick this unfilial daughter out of the house.
Xu Zhi did something so ruthless that no matter how calm a person is, it would be difficult for them to calm down after encountering such a situation.
Finally, the King of Chu said to himself angrily, "After I catch this evil creature, I will lock her up for a few years."
The Princess of Chu also had a tearful look on her face, and she lamented, "How could I have given birth to such a wicked child!"
……
Shenlinfang.
After Xu Zhi finished a day of practice, she couldn't help but smile. It turned out that her cultivation had recovered 70% and the last cycle had just broken the shackles of the Yin Spirit.
Only after her cultivation level was almost restored did Xu Zhi feel somewhat safe.
After strengthening her secret technique to conceal her own aura, Xu Zhi walked out of the room. During the past six months, she had been hiding in Shen Linfang, treating herself as an ordinary poor person.
In this case, it is natural that one needs to go out often to avoid suspicion from others. This is what is meant by "hiding in the city".
No matter how hard the five city Simas racked their brains, they could not imagine that this ordinary woman who was eating bran and vegetables was the eldest daughter of the Prince of Chu's Mansion, who had a bad personality but a look like a banished fairy.
As winter approaches, there are fewer pedestrians on the road, especially for the poor people in Shen Linfang. Unless it is necessary, they try not to go out in winter to avoid wasting the heat they have accumulated with great difficulty in the long and severe cold.
If it were in the Earthly Immortal Realm, Xu Zhi would find it hard to imagine that the mortals at the foot of the Three Immortal Islands would worry about keeping warm in the cold winter.
Just a simple fire-lighting talisman can ensure that the whole family is not afraid of the cold winter.
It would be normal if ordinary people in extremely remote areas could not enjoy such convenience, but Shenlinfang was located at the foot of the capital, but it was still the same. This really made Xu Zhi a little difficult to understand.
After experiencing these six months, Xu Zhi felt more and more that although the Dajian Dynasty seemed to be a dynasty where immortals and mortals were mixed, there should be more interactions between the two.
But in fact, monks and non-monks are like living in two parallel worlds with no intersection at all!
Xu Zhi quickly thought of the other kind of cultivation society that her master had told her about, which was different from the Earthly Immortal World... A world where talent for cultivation was not important, but only blood ties held ties, and it was a world where everyone was one family for all eternity!
The huge number of ordinary people are nothing more than resources kept in captivity by these natural nobles, just like minerals and spiritual plants.
In the whole world, there are only a few people who can be called human beings.
"Hello, Sister Xu Zhi."
"Sister, do you have any work today?"
Because she had to play the role of an ordinary person, Xu Zhi also had to solve the problems of food, clothing, housing and transportation like ordinary people. So when she walked towards the market, she heard a few sporadic greetings.
There were a few young boys who had been hanging around the pawnshop. Some of these kids had seriously ill parents or younger brothers and sisters, so they needed to see if they could pick up some work here.
Xu Zhi is now a garment maker. Sometimes when she feels sorry for them, she will pick a few well-behaved and sensible ones to do odd jobs, and the reward is some coarse grains and firewood.
For them, this was already a great help, so they were very friendly when they saw Xu Zhi.
Xu Zhi smiled and said, "After my sister delivers this batch of clothes and gets a new job, I will ask you for help."
At this time, Xu Zhi saw a thin girl whom she had never seen before. The little girl stood timidly in the corner, not daring to come forward, but just secretly looking at Xu Zhi with her big eyes.
"Maohou, is this the new kid?" Xu Zhi asked the smarter one among the group of half-grown children.
Maohou said with a smile: "This is Brother Yanshi's younger sister. Brother Yanshi found a proper job and no longer comes here to pick up work. His sister is here instead."
Xu Zhi frowned slightly, but nodded. Without saying anything more, she walked into the dental clinic.
