795 Unexplained Pressure to Get Married

Lord Ji's heart stirred slightly. Since taking on the responsibility of Lord Ji, he had never left Bodai.

Throughout the entire Bodai Mansion, there seemed to be an unspoken, unwavering respect and obedience to Miss Ji's management and appointments, as if everyone possessed the purest of hearts and willingly submitted to Miss Ji's position as the head of the manor.

Even the other martial emperors from various families were like this. They were all quite old, and perhaps because of this, they had lost their desire to compete for supremacy. Otherwise, it might not have been Miss Ji who was in charge of a prefecture all by herself.

At this moment, the sun shines warmly, the green bamboo in the courtyard sways slightly, and a chilly breeze blows.

The left maid wore soft armor underneath a long skirt. The armor, outlined with silver thread, was partially hidden, while the long skirt flowed like clouds. Her slightly flushed face was radiant, and she stood quietly behind her mistress.

There seems to be some consideration involved!

He asked in a low voice, "Miss, these days, ever since you expressed your desire to go to the border town, those old ministers have been buzzing around you like a swarm of anxious bees, urging you to get married and have children as soon as possible."

Their anxious expressions, more eager than if their own daughter were getting married, were truly both amusing and exasperating.

Although he said this, his expression was quite strange, as if these loyal subordinates had been urging the young lady to get married, which was going too far.

He thought to himself, 'A young lady's marriage is far from simple; it involves far more than just a wedding!'

Ji Yanran had long, ink-black hair and wore a brocade dress embroidered with several orchids, which exuded a pleasant fragrance!

Standing in front of the pond in the courtyard, I saw the dragonfish swimming around, but they seemed to be less active than usual!

She said softly, a hint of sadness in her voice, "I guess these people are getting impatient. After all, if I were from an ordinary family, or if my parents were still alive, I would have been betrothed long ago!"

The maid on the left didn't reply, but retorted in a low voice, "Miss, even if you're getting married, you should find a clean person with a simple background and invite them to marry into your family."

But these old foxes actually wanted the young lady to hire someone they recommended!

Time truly reveals all!

His tone was full of dissatisfaction, just like that night when the clerk actually wanted to recommend his nephew to the young lady, and even said that he was willing to give half of his family fortune as a dowry!

How ridiculous!

"Miss, how about I teach this man a good lesson? That way, the others won't dare to talk nonsense!"

The right maid brought over three cups of clear tea, their aroma wafting gently. She personally handed one to the young lady and then gave another cup to the left maid!

She said softly, "Sister, don't be angry. There's something strange about this matter. The people recommended by the officials are all your cousins, whether male or female!"

Miss Ji nodded slightly, her eyes blinking slightly, as if she had endless things to say but remained silent at this moment.

The maids on either side nodded slowly. This matter was too sudden and suspicious. If they coveted the position of the head of the manor, they should have seized it when the young lady's family disappeared!

At that time, the officials and the Emperor Wu behind her all sincerely welcomed the young lady to the throne, and now they seem to be sincerely welcoming her to get married, or even to have her marry into the family. This is all too uniform.

She shook her head slightly, the wind gently blowing her long hair, her face more delicate than a lotus flower!

The three women were like three fairies, descending to the mortal world. Their black hair cascaded down to their waists, dancing lightly in the wind, graceful and beautiful, with unparalleled elegance. Even the dragons and fish in the pond seemed to be stunned, swimming with their tails, not daring to move.

A moment later!

Ji Yanran asked softly, "How's the tiller?"

Upon hearing this, the maidservant blushed slightly, her face filled with excitement. "Miss, that tiller is truly a divine object!"

This can greatly reduce the burden on manpower, double the area of ​​cultivated land, and increase the amount of crops planted.

Although its internal structure is somewhat complex, thanks to the superb skills of Master Lu, it has begun to imitate and has been initially produced.

The newly manufactured tillage machine has begun testing in the fields, and the results so far are quite promising.

Ji Yanran nodded slightly and said in a gentle voice, "You need to write a letter as soon as possible to explain this matter in detail to Madam Yunsu and others."

We are deeply impressed by the ingenuity of the tiller; now that we have successfully replicated it, I am willing to offer a gift as a token of my apprenticeship.

The maid on the left nodded slightly, "Yes, Miss!"

He further praised, "Master Lu not only successfully replicated the tool, but also has other new ideas about other tools and is developing new farming tools!"

He's even planning to work on other new projects; he's practically obsessed with it now!

Ji Yanran praised softly, "Master Lu is just like that; he must have gained some inspiration."

This progress in agriculture, though not comparable to the creation of ritual implements, is still a significant achievement.

I intend to follow Lord He's example and grant other craftsmen appropriate status. What do you think?

The two maids nodded simultaneously, their expressions slightly worried.

The right maid said softly, "Miss, how about having Sister Zuo go again and deliver the grain for the transaction?"

The capital is in turmoil. Yesterday, news broke that the dragon's aura had vanished, causing a major upheaval in the city. The princes' fates are unknown, and Martial Emperors are frequently appearing! Chaos is brewing!

The maid on the left nodded slightly, her eyes flickering, and whispered, "Miss, the news last night was too shocking. Elder Yun has broken through to the Martial Emperor realm. Madam Yun Su must have received the news as well. We should offer our congratulations!"

Ji Yanran nodded slightly and said softly, "I'll gather them first to discuss the congratulations. Besides these, let's also discuss the corn oil brewing; we can send a portion to Madam Yunsu."

The maids on either side nodded slightly.

An hour later, Ji Yanran and her two maids saw the family heads off. This time, they brought the method of brewing corn oil, and none of the family heads had any objections!

Upon hearing that the Left Maid was going to the border town again, and that she was alone, the heads of the families readily agreed without any objection. This was a completely different attitude from the others, as if they wanted to keep Ji Yanran in the Bodai Mansion and were afraid that something might happen to the head of the mansion.

But if something really happens to Lord Ji, wouldn't this huge Bodai Mansion be the place where these former vassal families of the Ji family choose an heir? Shouldn't this be exactly what many vassal families have been hoping for?

Miss Zuo, accompanied by a group of soldiers and three food storage bags, wore exquisite armor that accentuated her beauty and made her look stunning. Without making any other preparations, she rode away!

Within the spiritual land, Ji Yanran and her right maid Liu Rui carefully surveyed their surroundings. Ji Yanran nodded slightly, gathered her energy, and transmitted her voice, saying, "The spiritual energy here is as sparse as in an ordinary place. I'm afraid the other patriarchs' secluded cultivation places are the same!"

The spiritual energy of this sacred land is rapidly dissipating; even with spirit stones, it won't last long. They should be anxious.

The maid, Liu Rui, also used telepathy to speak softly, "What Miss says is true. With spiritual energy depleted, the spiritual herbs in the spiritual land will certainly be greatly affected!"

Liu Rui and Ji Yanran looked up at the spiritual land around them. It used to be a vibrant treasure land of spiritual herbs, but now it was as sparse as the outside world.
