The several carts that Jiutian brought contained all the items needed to run the "Daqi Daily".

There are printing molds, machines, sample newspapers, etc.

At the start of the new year, she had already discussed and finalized a preliminary list of members with Yin Jin'an, Wang Can, Fang Ruoyun, and others.

The regulations and similar documents were also announced in the imperial court.

For her, working in Qi was more comfortable than in Yulong. Her father and mother were both extremely cautious (too cunning), and Crown Prince Zhou Qiheng, in addition to being cautious, also suspected her of interfering in politics.

In Daqi, there were no such obstacles or troubles. Yin Jin'an only said one thing: "Do what you want to do, and I'll take responsibility if anything goes wrong."

Therefore, if the Nine Heavens want to do the "Great Qi Report," then so be it.

Yin Jin'an proposed to the court to start the "Great Qi Newspaper" and explained the role of newspapers in the Jade Dragon Kingdom. Everyone was very excited. With a successful precedent, let's do it!

Everyone initially thought a lot of money would be allocated from the national treasury, but Jiutian told them, "People will be chasing after you to give you money."

At first, people didn't believe it, but by the third issue, they discovered that wealthy businessmen were desperate to get featured in the newspaper.

Advertising space is highly sought after each period, and the prices are higher than you can imagine.

Some people sponsor huge sums of money to be interviewed, hoping to become famous overnight, with everyone in the city vying for their attention. Fame is something the world flocks to.

With Jiutian personally in charge and Fang Ruoyun assisting, the Daqi Daily was not only launched with great fanfare, effectively conveying government orders from top to bottom, but also made a fortune.

Yin Jin'an's spirits visibly lifted again; he was radiant and seemed tireless. The officials in the court were also different from those of any previous administration, with the emperor leading the way and frequently going deep into the front lines.

They can be seen everywhere, in fields, factories, and workshops.

In less than five years, the State of Qi caught up with the State of Yulong in all aspects.

Several small states in the west and north declared their allegiance to the State of Qi.

In the tenth year of the Qi calendar, the twenty-fifth year of the Yulong calendar, Emperor Zhou Shaoyu and Xie Zhaozhao of the Yulong Kingdom abdicated, and Crown Prince Zhou Qiheng succeeded to the throne, with the reign title Zhang.

After Zhou Shaoyu and Xie Zhaozhao abdicated, they did not stay in the palace to enjoy their old age. Instead, they took the retired Emperor Xie Anfeng on a tour of the Tiansheng Continent to fulfill their filial duties.

In the fifteenth year of the Qi dynasty, the thirtieth year of the Yulong era, Xie An, at the age of seventy-one, passed away peacefully in his bed.

The Nine Heavens Emperor and Emperor Aotian of Qi went to Daming Prefecture of Yulong Kingdom to offer sacrifices.

At that time, Emperor Aotian Yin Jin'an was thirty-two years old, Emperor Yulong Chen, Zhou Shaoyu, was already sixty, and Emperor An, Xie Zhaozhao, was also approaching the age of fifty.

The appearance of Emperor Aotian and the twenty-year-old Jiutian Girl in Daming Prefecture at the same time caused a sensation in the capital.

Li Yunmu, Zhou Lingyin, Yunyang, Gu Chongjin and others came out to greet them from a distance of 100 li.

The prosperity of the Jade Dragon Kingdom deeply shocked the officials of the Qi Kingdom, and the Jade Dragon Kingdom's respect for Emperor Aotian left them speechless. In the Qi Kingdom, no one could replace Yin Jin'an.

After paying their respects, Li Yunmu, Zhou Lingyin, Yunyang, Gu Chongjin, and others, with the consent of Xie Zhaozhao and Zhou Shaoyu, took Yin Jin'an back to their residence and indulged in a three-day drinking spree.

Afterwards, Jiutian kept vigil for Xie An in accordance with custom.

Zhou Shaoyu accompanied Yin Jin'an, Li Yunmu, Zhou Lingyin and others to the capital city of Tokyo in Daqianyuan.

As Yin Jin'an rode his horse through the streets of Tokyo, he felt as if he had returned to decades ago, a time when he was ignored by his father, disliked by his mother, and bullied by his brother and sister-in-law.

The boy's sorrows came and went quickly; a single bet at the arena would bring him back to full health.

He rode his horse to Qingyuan Teahouse by Moon Lake without thinking. The area around the teahouse had not changed, and the big camphor tree was still there.

He stood by the roadside, reined in his horse, and didn't move for a long time.

In the bright sunlight, he saw the woman again; she was smiling at him. She was tall and slender, with a perfect figure, wearing a pink robe with a round collar embroidered with peonies, a white cross-collar undergarment, and a purple horse-face skirt.

It doesn't feel luxurious, only elegant.

Even though her smile was gentle and approachable, he still felt a sense of pressure and sacredness from her.

From that moment on, Yin Jin'an felt that there really was a living Guanyin in the world.

At that moment, he suddenly felt ashamed of having wasted his time...

He reined in his horse and didn't move, nor did Li Yunmu and Zhou Lingyin. Apart from the two of them, no one understood why Yin Jin'an was standing there.

Who would have thought that the three scoundrels on the streets of Tokyo would all rise to prominence, with one becoming emperor, another a duke, and the last a vice minister of the Ministry of Works (Zhou Lingyin, vice minister of the Ministry of Works, in charge of shipping and transportation).

The three then went to the "Xiaoyao Marquis" mansion. This was the first time Yin Jin'an had been granted a title. Back then, when the Crown Prince forced the emperor to abdicate, he led the clay pot thunder and defeated the rebel army, making a great contribution.

Time really flies; in the blink of an eye, two lifetimes have passed.

Yin Jin'an stood for only a moment in front of the former Duke Xun's mansion, and all the hurt, helplessness, confusion, numbness... the Duke Xun's mansion in her memory all vanished with the wind.

He stayed in Tokyo for three days, kowtowed at the tomb of the Duke of Xun, and ignored the rest of the Yin family's ancestors.

Upon leaving Yulong Kingdom, Li Yunmu and Zhou Lingyin wept until their legs went weak. Xie Zhaozhao and Zhou Shaoyu had already abdicated, and as they grew older and their identities became more sensitive, it became increasingly difficult for the old brothers to reunite.

Having met this time, who knows when we'll meet again, or perhaps we'll never meet again.

Ten years later, on the Shangsi Festival.

On his deathbed.

Seventy-two-year-old Zhou Shaoyu, who had been in a coma for many days, finally returned to the hospital after nine days.

He was terribly thin and could no longer speak, but he kept his eyes open and his breath lingering, gazing at the heavens.

"Your father has something on his mind, worrying about your future." Xie Zhaozhao's temples were white, but in Jiutian's eyes, his mother was still beautiful.

With his hands forming a hand seal, Jiutian borrowed a breath of true energy from his father, Zhou Shaoyu finally spoke: "Jiutian, if you like him, then be together. Your father will not object."
