Lanhuadis 52
A few days later.
Ning Ren passed down the decrees regarding conscription, military training, and trade with the Northern Territory one by one, and sent special personnel to be responsible for the periodic acceptance of the results.
Ning Ren wanted to hand over the training to his eldest sister, Wen Duolin, but she refused. So, Carlos and Gamimi were jointly responsible for it.
Xierting took the initiative to take on the conscription.
This was the first time he had worked for the royal court properly since the Tianfeng incident.
The Kongchan gang he led was very successful in the civilian area. Now that the king had appeared, the usual acts of burning, killing, looting, and fighting evil with evil were naturally not allowed to happen again.
He brought his brothers who had no place to eat in Kongchan and joined the Third Army. Those who had no mental strength were made non-staff personnel, and those who had mental strength were sent to the recruit camp for training. Life was a bit hard, but the treatment was much better than in the civilian area.
Ning Ren also allocated research funds to all the top research institutes in the clan, with only one task: to develop weapons that can eliminate or resist the pollution of the sky crack.
Dorothea plunged headfirst into the new research institute and has not come out since.
Ning Ren gathered all the royal children who were lazy and playing in the royal court. He assigned tasks to them according to their characteristics, and threw those who were lazy and slacking into the army for training without any mercy.
Even the old men and women in the tribe who should have been enjoying their retirement were pulled up by their young new king to work for him.
Rest? Impossible!
All of them should go and research for him the most cost-effective and labor-saving trade channel between the Eastern Region and the Northern Region!
If you take a break now, you will really take a break forever when the sky cracks!
Naturally, many members of the tribe were unwilling to go through this ordeal.
Many elders in the clan had said during the audience that if new policies were to be implemented, they should be done slowly. For example, conscription wasn't necessary in Lanhuadis right now. And trade, hadn't it been going on for thousands of years? Why rush into it now?
well.
Wang is indeed still young and likes to make trouble.
Ning Ren would naturally listen to appropriate suggestions, and he would use Wang Wei to suppress any attempts to evade responsibility and be cunning.
Being a king in Lanhuadis is the most enjoyable and comfortable thing. No matter what orders he gives, his words are mixed with the king's pressure. Even if you are reluctant, you have to do it conscientiously.
Ning Ren flipped through more and more memorials.
The notebooks I use to record my studies are getting thicker and thicker.
Originally, he remembered only carefree words, but now he remembers the experience of governing a group of people.
"Your Majesty, Xiercheng requests an audience with His Highness."
Ning Ren looked up from the table, stayed still for two seconds, and then hurriedly said, "Let my third brother in!"
The attendant responded respectfully.
A young man with a warm smile soon walked in from outside. His right leg was slightly bent, which was hard to tell unless you looked closely. He looked the same as Xilting, but gave people a completely different feeling.
The fourth brother is the continuous rain, and the third brother is the early sunshine.
Ning Ren: "Third brother, please sit down."
He quickly stood up and walked to Xiercheng, intending to help him.
Xiercheng smiled and joked, "Brother, please let me go for a walk. It's so hard for me to come out, but your fifth sister is almost keeping me at home."
Ning Ren did not extend his hand to support him again. He led Xiercheng to the opposite side of the table, and the two sat opposite each other.
He cleared the papers on his desk and put his notebook aside.
The attendant quietly served tea.
Ning Ren: "I wonder if Third Brother can get used to this drink."
The drinks in the Eastern Region were too strong. Even if he awakened his spiritual power, his body couldn't handle it, so he just drank some juice and ordinary tea.
Xier Cheng: "I'm not picky."
He raised his glass and took a small sip.
Ning Ren was still quite unfamiliar with his third brother, whom he had never gotten along with. He didn't know what to say because he didn't know him well and was worried about saying something wrong.
For a moment he didn't know how to bring up the topic and felt subtly awkward.
Xiercheng took a few sips, put down his teacup, and said with a smile, "I came here today mainly to see you. After all, I spent a lot of time cleaning your eggshells. I know you are not very comfortable. I didn't grow up with you like my elder sister and second brother did."
"It doesn't matter. We'll have a long time to get acquainted with each other."
He has a pair of amber eyes, which look very gentle when he smiles, and the corners of his eyes are rounder than those of Xierting.
Ning Ren slowly relaxed, "Well, Third Brother, how is your recovery going?"
Xier Cheng: "Xiaowu is amazing. He just got a new patella installed today and can already walk normally."
Ning Ren: "Just installed?"
He couldn't help but ask: "Does it hurt? Can I see it?"
Xier Cheng: "It doesn't hurt. I still need to get used to it. I came out for a walk today to get used to it. I'll show you when I'm fully used to it."
"There's something I want to discuss with you."
Ning Ren: "Third brother, you say."
Xier Cheng: "My elder sister is busy going to the Western Sea. I want to go with her. I am good at negotiations."
The Western Sea.
That is the only place where the blood of God is clearly found.
Ning Ren knew.
The eldest sister wants to go to the Western Sea for his health. Everyone in the clan supports this so that he can become healthier.
But Ning Ren is not like that. He wants the Blood of God because it is one of the items to fight against Tianxiao.
Ning Ren: "But Third Brother, you haven't recovered yet. Is it because your eldest sister doesn't allow you to go that you came to me?"
Besides, the negotiators are all excellent in speaking. Third Brother has not spoken in the coffin for so many years, how good can his speaking skills be?
Negotiations between the two domains are destined to be a long-term task, or they need each other's help. If they are not careful, they will lose a piece of flesh.
Over the years, Ning Ren has heard his fifth sister and sixth brother talk about Xiercheng, and all of them were full of praise for him.
After talking so much, Ning Ren always felt that his third brother, who was gentle in dealing with others and had no obvious personality, was like a little lamb and was particularly easy to be bullied.
Thinking of this, he said: "There are liars everywhere, the Eastern Region is still better."
Xiercheng paused subtly and coughed lightly a few times: "Eldest sister loves you very much. If you go and tell her, she will definitely give in."
Ning Ren waved his hand: "Let's talk about it after the patella recovers."
Xiercheng sighed.
Ning Ren quickly changed the subject: "Third brother, I can use my royal power to erase the royal mark on your original patella, but it will take a while. Once the royal mark is gone, I will return it to you and you can replace it with the real one."
Xiercheng shook his head. "No. I already have a new one. You can use the old one as a table leg, or carve it up and use it as a decorative ornament."
Ning Ren couldn't help but have a question mark pop up in his mind.
Are you serious, Third Brother?
Those are your bones.
Seeing that his goal was not achieved, Xiercheng did not have any regretful look between his brows, but just a little bit lonely.
Ning Ren has been a bit obsessed with looks since he was a child. At one point, he couldn't take his eyes off watching Asulin dancing and taking a bath. Apart from him, his fourth brother was the most handsome in the family.
But unfortunately, his fourth brother was a gloomy and rough man who didn't care much about his image, so Ning Ren didn't think there was anything wrong.
But when the same face appeared on the third brother, it looked completely different.
At least when Ning Ren saw this expression on his face, his heart ached and he felt extremely guilty.
Alas, he rejected the third brother the first time he approached him. The third brother must have been very sad.
"Third brother..."
Xier Cheng: "Forget it, just write my name on the paper. Xiao Qi has never written Third Brother's name, right? I need to recuperate at home and can't come to see you often. It would be great if you could read my handwriting."
Ning Ren: "Write it right away, write it right away."
Xiercheng pulled out a piece of office paper and said, "Write here, be neat, and stamp it. I want to keep it."
Ning Ren wrote the three words "Xiercheng" neatly, stamped it with his own seal, and handed it to his third brother.
Xiercheng didn't linger long after receiving the calligraphy. He casually pulled out a piece of light golden cardboard from the paper tube and said, "I'll take one of these and stick my name on it later as a bookmark."
This light golden hard paper was used to issue royal decrees. Ning Ren was just about to ask his third brother to exchange it for another one when he heard him say:
"Alas, I can't leave the house, so I can only read books."
“…”
Ning Ren didn't know why, but he felt even more guilty.
He obviously did nothing wrong, and Third Brother didn't say anything...
Forget it, it’s just a piece of paper with no words on it. The servants usually take it back and forth and put it away, so it’s no big deal.
Watching Xiercheng walk away and his tall and slender figure disappear in the temple, Ning Ren felt a little guilty.
How about preparing some gifts for Third Brother as compensation?
-
As Xiercheng walked out of the temple, the slight melancholy on his face disappeared in an instant.
A smile appeared on his lips.
The more gentle kind.
He took out the thin paper with his name written on it and the seal on it, and with a flick of his fingers, the font and seal on it were printed on the light golden hard paper.
He remembered what his younger brother had just said to him: There are only liars out there, the Eastern Region is still better.
That cute worried expression almost made Xiercheng burst out laughing.
Little guy.
It's really too simple.
There are scammers outside, but there are also scammers at home.
He felt so guilty just because he used a little trick. It made him feel guilty too. He shouldn't have deceived the honest child.
There were seven children in their Herbert family's generation, and unexpectedly, a little sheep really appeared.
This is not a good thing. You will definitely suffer losses outside. You have to protect yourself well.
Niemansen had been waiting for him outside the temple. He looked Xier Cheng up and down and breathed a sigh of relief: "Third Prince, you really shouldn't have come out."
How could it be so easy to adapt after replacing half of a leg?
When the Third Prince walked, his knee had not yet healed!
Xier Cheng: "Send this to my eldest sister."
Niemansen looked at Xiercheng's name and seal on the order paper and asked, "Is this the king's handwriting?"
Xier Cheng nodded gently, "Yes. Xiao Qi agreed to let me accompany my elder sister to the Western Sea to negotiate. I originally wanted to write a whole sentence, but Xiao Qi was too tired from handling official business and needed to catch up on sleep, so I just wrote my name."
Nymanson suddenly felt distressed.
Hey, he watched the little prince grow up.
He said that being a king is not easy. He is not as free as before. He is stuck in the temple all day and his health will be ruined.
Xier Cheng: "Take the paper to my eldest sister and repeat everything I said without missing a single word."
Nymanson: "Yes, Your Highness."
He asked two other attendants to accompany Xiercheng, and he flew away quickly.
Xiercheng's eyebrows curved.
very good.
Once the housekeeper said those words, even if the eldest sister had doubts in her heart, she would not be willing to disturb Xiaoqi's rest.
He took advantage of the half day to pack up his things and catch up to make sure nothing went wrong.
Since the blood of God is beneficial to Xiao Qi's health and growth, how can he feel at ease if he doesn't go there himself and let the Western Sea spit out more blood?
Good things, more of them, the better.
