Chapter 506: The Chen family tested their spiritual roots, and the Imperial Master's Mansion was finally completed.
Xiao Ying only heard the news that Marquis Zhenyuan was about to return to the court on the second day.
Early in the morning, after she sent Chen Xinghe away, Kang Ruolan reported the matter.
Xiao Ying suddenly realized that Jing State had withdrawn its troops, there was no war in Beizhou, and his stepfather was finally coming back.
And she will finally meet Han Ye, who has taken over her status and position.
If the other party is sensible, she doesn't mind treating him as a transparent person.
If he doesn't know what's best for him, Xu Xuan's today will be his tomorrow.
She didn't care too much and told Kang Ruolan to call everyone from the Chen family over as she had something to discuss.
After a day of adapting, the Chen family was no longer so nervous and anxious. At least they were familiar with the three courtyards where they lived.
They also put on new clothes and new jewelry, but except for Zhou Lihua and Chen Qinghe, the jewelry of everyone else was very simple.
Zhang Yuxiu only wore a white jade hairpin, while Liu Lan wore a gold hairpin.
Chen Daya, also known as Chen Qingyu, wore a emerald green hairpin and had no rouge or powder on her face.
Zhou Lihua and Chen Qinghe were quite good at dressing up. Not only did they put on makeup with rouge and powder, they also picked out several kinds of jewelry to wear.
I have to say, it does look like that. Zhou Lihua doesn't look so materialistic and rustic anymore, and Chen Qinghe also has a bit of a beautiful girl from a small family.
The men didn't change much, except that they put on new clothes and looked more energetic than before.
"Dad, Mom, and everyone, how did you sleep last night?"
Xiao Ying asked with a smile, without commenting on their clothes.
Chen Afu nodded quickly: "Slept well, slept very well."
Zhang Yuxiu echoed, "Yingying, what you prepared for us is so wonderful. I never thought I could live such a good life in my life."
"Yes, we were so excited and happy for half the night last night, we couldn't believe it." Liu Lan also looked emotional.
Xiao Ying nodded: "Then I'm relieved. If you need anything in the future, just tell me. If I'm not here, you can tell Kang Ruolan."
"That's good enough."
Zhang Yuxiu is very content.
She was worried that if this continued, her family members would develop picky appetites.
Xiao Ying stopped dwelling on this and got down to business.
"I asked you to come here today because I have two things to say."
Everyone became serious upon hearing this, and even felt nervous again.
Xiao Ying said: "You all know that I am now the Imperial Master. The reason I can be the Imperial Master is because I am a cultivator."
"In fact, it's not just me, Xinghai and the other kids are like that too."
"So now I want to ask you, are you willing to practice with me?"
When these words were spoken, the entire Chen family was stunned.
Monks? Cultivation? They can also cultivate?
Although they didn't know how Xiao Ying became a cultivator, they had heard that he was a person with supernatural powers.
They never expected that they would have such an opportunity.
"Yingying, are you kidding? Can people like us practice cultivation?"
Chen Afu asked tremblingly, wondering if he was dreaming.
The others also stared at Xiao Ying with burning eyes, not daring to blink.
Xiao Ying nodded: "As long as you are willing."
"Can one cultivate to become an immortal?" Liu Lan's eyes were full of curiosity and anticipation.
"Second sister-in-law, after I practice, can I also be as young and beautiful as you?"
The person who asked this question was Zhou Lihua.
Xiao Ying did not laugh at their ignorance, but instead explained carefully.
This detailed explanation took half an hour, and the Chen family was confused, but they still understood the general idea.
To practice cultivation, one must have spiritual roots. Although one cannot become an immortal, one can still possess some powerful means and become younger and more beautiful.
What else is there to say? Of course I have to practice!
The Chen family members did not hesitate at all and all expressed their desire to practice.
"Okay, then from today on, you will all start taking the spiritual spring water and take a bath in it every night."
"After nourishing our bodies for a while, we can start practicing formally."
Xiao Ying was very happy that they were motivated, but he also mentioned a few rules.
For example, they were not allowed to bully others or cause trouble, etc. The Chen family naturally agreed.
Next, Xiao Ying tested their spiritual roots.
Not surprisingly, there isn't even a single fake spiritual root.
Worried that they might make a mistake, she did not give the spiritual spring water directly, but gave it to a disciple, asking him to distribute it every morning and evening.
The Chen family felt as if they were floating as they walked. When they returned to their residence, they couldn't believe that they would become the legendary monks.
In addition to training, Xiao Ying also arranged tasks based on their strengths.
Chen Jin manages the plants and flowers in the mansion and can also cultivate his own land, which makes him very happy.
After farming for so many years, he likes doing this.
Liu Lan could go to a workshop or work as a shopkeeper, but she chose the latter.
Chen Qingyu didn't like interacting with people, so she chose the job of workshop manager and was still responsible for perfume making.
Chen Jinyong joined the government army and trained with them.
Chen Tong still worked as the workshop manager, while Zhou Lihua and Chen Qinghe chose to go to the shop, as they wanted to continue selling embroidery.
The remaining three children were still young, and Chen Shaocong still chose to study medicine. Chen Qingming didn't like studying and was lazy, so Xiao Ying planned to temper his temper first.
Chen Qinglian invited a female teacher to come back and teach her. She was quite talented in this area.
As for Chen Afu and Zhang Yuxiu, Xiao Ying did not assign them any work and let them do as they pleased.
So Chen Afu also chose to go to the workshop, while Zhang Yuxiu was responsible for supervising the kitchen.
Being able to practice and have work to do, the Chen family felt that they had a goal again and felt more at peace.
Xiao Ying did not break her promise and went to the palace in person the next day to raise the matter of Ouyang Chengye.
The emperor was very satisfied with this. It was just a small matter. Xiao Ying could actually directly instruct the Ministry of Personnel, but he still told him, which showed that he respected him very much.
Of course he agreed immediately and was directly appointed as a seventh-rank construction official in the Ministry of Works.
After all, he is not a high-ranking official, but he is just starting out, so he is definitely not a low-ranking official.
This time, Xiao Ying doesn't have to worry about it, as someone from the palace will go to Yingfeng Town to deliver the message.
Once Yingfeng County is built, Ouyang Chengye can definitely use it to get promoted half a level or one level higher.
"Master Imperial Master, you have arrived just in time. I also have something very important to discuss with you."
The emperor suddenly spoke again.
"Your Majesty, please tell me what you want to say." Xiao Ying was a little curious.
The emperor smiled and said, "In a few days the Imperial Preceptor's Mansion will be completed. I would like to hold a ceremony for you to move in, so that everyone can see the Imperial Preceptor's holy face. What do you think?"
