Ji Wan was stunned for a moment, not understanding what Xiling Mingyue meant: "What?"
Xiling Mingyue thought of Ji Wan's stubbornness when he was young because he had lost his soul, and his tone was filled with nostalgia.
"Fuguang, you were murdered by the Queen when you were young, and you lost your soul. You became a little foolish because of it. If you hadn't used some magic to send your soul to be nurtured, you would probably have remained foolish forever."
Ji Wan's eyes widened in shock, and he almost fell off the bed in excitement. His breathing became a little faster. "Send him to be nursed? Can he be nursed across space or time?"
If what my mother said now was true, then what about her in her previous life? Was that true?
When Xiling Mingyue saw Ji Wan's appearance, she guessed that her child must have suffered a lot during the cultivation of his soul.
Distressed and sad, he hugged Ji Wan tightly: "It's all my fault. My little Fu Guang has suffered."
Ji Wan frantically called out to the system in her heart: "What the hell is going on!"
The system's voice remained cold: "I only know that your soul was indeed lost. I don't know anything else. The only thing I can be sure of is that you are the owner of this body."
Yes, yes. No wonder she didn't feel any discomfort when she merged her memories earlier. No wonder she'd adapted so well to life without phones and computers! But what was going on in modern life? Was it all just a dream?
The most important thing is that she already has a mother! She didn't steal Ji Wan from before!
Seeing that Ji Wan remained silent, Xiling Mingyue kept stroking Ji Wan's dark hair, "Fu Guang, my son! My son has suffered..." Her voice was a little tearful, and her tone was full of heartache.
"It's okay, mother, I'm just too shocked." After wiping Xiling Mingyue's tears, Ji Wan cleverly changed the subject, "Mother, I'll show you how I handle government affairs later, okay!"
Touching Ji Wan's nose, Xiling Mingyue burst into laughter, feeling as if a little fox was wagging its tail in front of her: "Good, good, the tail is up to the sky!"
There was no need to let my mother know about my past life. If she knew, she would definitely cry again out of heartache. No matter what, that was all in the past!
Next to his mother, Ji Wan seemed to become a child again, acting like a spoiled child and rolling around very smoothly. After holding his mother tenderly for a long time, Ji Wan talked to Xiling Mingyue about his experience after arriving in Qingshizhou.
He even took his beloved mother's hand and ran to the front of the city defense formation to introduce her to it.
There is no way. Now the stone city is full of arrowheads and ruins, and only the east gate is worth seeing.
This made Xiling Mingyue burst into laughter. Looking at the tragic scene after the battle, she thought of how much effort Ji Wan must have put in to gain a foothold in Qingshi State and even compete with the marginal figures of the Cui family. She felt a pang of sadness.
In the end, Xiling Mingyue didn't say anything, but just looked at Ji Wan with her big eyes full of pity.
After spending the entire day with her mother, Ji Wan invited Xiling Mingyue to the inn for a short break. Although she knew Xiling Mingyue was a cultivator, she was still a little worried about whether she would tire him out.
The east gate of Shicheng is less than fifty kilometers away from the other two cities in Fanzhou, so Ji Wan specifically asked Jin Lie and his soldiers to be vigilant, for she was afraid of being ambushed by the neighboring city.
After all, her operation of conquering cities and territories was like plucking hair from a tiger's head and trampling on the emperor's face.
After giving the order, Ji Wan went to check out the granary in Shicheng. It turned out that the granary in the entire city was enough to feed the 20,000 people Ji Wan brought with him for three to five years.
It seems that Fanzhou City not only provided support in the form of soldiers, but also provided a lot of food. I don’t know where Fanzhou got so much food given the severe drought.
Ahem, Ji Wan got off to a great bargain.
Shicheng looked very similar to the Qingshizhou that Ji Wan had first seen. Most of the houses were short thatched mud houses, and only a few houses made of stone bricks and wood could be seen in the official residences.
The ground is mostly paved with loess. It can't be said to be exactly the same as the Qingshizhou before Ji Wan went there, but it can be said to be exactly the same.
"Rucheng, didn't I say before that I would have projects under my control that would allow people who buy a lot of bluestone bricks to participate? Go back to Qingshizhou and ask those merchants if they want to open businesses in Fanzhou's Stone City."
Ji Wan smiled like a fox, and she and Cui Min hit it off immediately.
"yes."
Another dog owner is here to take advantage of Ji Wan~
It's winter now, and there's no place selling firewood in the city. It seems that the dignitaries in the city buy firewood from the neighboring city or hunters.
"Tell the buyers down there that someone in Shicheng will need firewood in a few days."
After all, servants or managers from many merchants will soon come to Shicheng to check out their shops.
If you don’t take this opportunity to sell some firewood, how can you make money?
The matters that the advisory group had been discussing with Ji Wanzheng a few days ago were temporarily interrupted. Upon hearing that His Highness's mother had come to Shicheng, they all expressed their desire to come and visit.
So Ji Wan directly held a banquet and gathered all the counselors around him who could come. One was to celebrate Ji Wan’s birthday, the other was to welcome the arrival of his mother, and most importantly, to make a post-war summary.
November 15th was Ji Wan’s birthday, a rare sunny day.
Ji Wan got up early in the morning, crawled out of her mother's warm bed, put on her pajamas, and ate the longevity noodles brought in by Yang Guan with relish.
Hehe, this is the first time since I came here that I have my mom by my side for my birthday! It's worth remembering!
After changing into festive clothes and being dressed up beautifully by Yang Guan and Nie Ying, she left the inn.
One has to admire Yang Guan; he even knows how to draw eyebrows and apply makeup on women. Ji Wan's makeup today was completely handled by Yang Guan. Combined with Nie Ying's hair-braiding skills, Ji Wan's spirit and energy were not only elevated, but her appearance was also more refined than usual.
It can be said that people feel refreshed when good things happen.
Joy was in her eyes and eyebrows, and anyone could see that Ji Wan was in a very good mood. Even the half-day government affairs she handled as usual did not change her good mood.
Even better, the children from Moxiang Academy had already arrived at the city gate! Lin Chanhua had already taught them how to control objects, and how the children with earth spirit roots could control bricks and stones.
With these children, the reconstruction of the city will be faster!
Ji Wan had already instructed Gao Qu to begin firing bluestone bricks before the troops were dispatched. He was also quite fast, and this time, the children brought three large carriages full of bluestone bricks.
Many more were still being fired. Also arriving were a thousand newly recruited female soldiers.
There is no way. There are too few people willing to join the army. Even though the benefits are so good, no one comes for the time being.
Ji Wan was not in a hurry about this matter, but Yan Peinan was very worried.
