When Fu Xiaoguan learned that Wang Chaofeng and others were also in Alia City, he was happy.
He looked carefully at the invitation list and found that there were more than just these three or two old friends here.
He saw Lu Xihui and remembered that this guy was the youngest son of Lu Xiping, the head of the Lu family, and had a very good relationship with Sima Tao and others.
He also saw He Yifu - He Sandao's father!
There are many more, such as Wang Sun Yueming, the eldest son of the Wang Sun family, Yun Lige, who was once one of the Seven Sons of Lanxi, and the two former heads of Wofengdao: Ning Lirun, the patriarch of the Ning family, and Wei Yifan, the patriarch of the Wei family!
Among these people, except Chen Qingyi who he had secretly sent here a long time ago, the rest of them came here from Daxia in the past two years.
He ticked off the names of these people and gave them to Alia, asking her to send someone to invite them first, so Chen Qingyi and others received the invitation letters first.
…
Jinxiufang.
Zhang Qiyue went back to her room with a happy look on her face to change clothes.
Wang Chaofeng and the other two looked at each other at this moment, and of course they couldn't hide their joy in their hearts. This was a huge surprise. They had never thought that they would be able to meet the great emperor again in this place.
"This isn't the last time we'll see each other." Chen Qingyi picked up the teacup and continued, "According to my teacher, Yingtian Continent will probably be very large. In the future, that place will become the territory of the retired emperor... My teacher said that according to the retired emperor's ideas, that place will be more free, and all the systems and rules will be different from those of Daxia!"
"In other words, the Emperor seems to want to test some of his new ideas in that new continent, because the cost of testing in Daxia is too high. If they fail, the entire Daxia foundation will be destroyed."
Qiao Chushi leaned over and asked in a low voice, "So... it will be a completely new stage? And there will be some danger?"
"That should be the case. My teacher never explained it in detail. I guess that magnificent scene only exists in the mind of the retired emperor. I'm afraid my teacher doesn't know it either."
"But no matter what, if he succeeds... that place must be a perfect country!"
…
…
The first person to arrive at the study in the City Guard's Mansion was He Yifu.
He is over sixty years old this year. He suffered the pain of losing his loved ones and has aged a lot. However, he looks pretty energetic now. It seems that he has come out of the sadness.
Fu Xiaoguan poured him a cup of tea and asked, "Where's Zhong Yu? Didn't she come here?"
He Yifu smiled slightly, "She is still in Guanyun City, with her two children, guarding that grave."
Fu Xiaoguan hung his head, looking somewhat dejected, "This matter... is also my fault."
"No, you don't know about this kid Sandao. When he was in Linzi, he was actually afraid of death. All I wanted at that time was for him to live a peaceful life in that small place like Linzi."
"But this brat loves to stir up trouble, so I told him about the Zhong family's marriage proposal... It was a bit embarrassing, but fortunately, Zhong Yu finally agreed."
"Miss Six of the Zhong Family is watching him. I've always thought he could never cause any major trouble, but I never expected him to choose to join the army!"
He Yifu shook his head, as if immersed in the memories of that time, and still found it hard to believe.
"How could he possibly know any martial arts? He certainly doesn't know how to fight! I thought he was afraid of death, but I never expected him to meet you... This is the greatest luck in his life. You made him what he is! My whole family is deeply grateful to you!"
"If you say he died on the battlefield... after careful consideration, I realized that this was his fate!"
"He disliked reading when he was young, and even when he grew up he couldn't read a single word. This is the tragedy of being uneducated. He is ultimately a reckless man!"
"My wife is a good woman. Over the years, under her management and with your help, our family has made a lot of money. I have been in Chang'an for about two months and bought a house there. I originally wanted to live there permanently and send my two grandsons to the best schools in Chang'an so that they can have more education."
"But Zhong Yu thought it would be better to let the two children stay in Guanyun City. After all, Guanyun City also has good schools. So I later sent my eldest grandson back to Guanyun City. But I didn't want to stay in Guanyun City, so I came here on a passenger ship. In this foreign city, I opened a Shu embroidery workshop. Business is pretty good. I am busy all day long, so I forget some things, and I feel better."
Fu Xiaoguan nodded and said, "Thank you for your hard work. You don't have to worry about your two grandchildren's studies, and you don't have to worry about the future of your He family."
"Sandao is my Fu Xiaoguan's best brother. He once said that his ideal is to become a small landowner. Give me some time. Once I develop Yingtian Continent, I will naturally give Sandao a large fiefdom."
"When shipping is open, move Sandao to his fiefdom and let him see the magnificent mountains and rivers of the future!"
"This old man thanks His Majesty the Emperor!"
"Uncle He, you're welcome! This is what I should do!"
The atmosphere was no longer as solemn as before. The two drank tea and talked about some light things. For example, when He Sandao was in Linzi, his favorite thing was to go to that building to listen to the gossip and watch the red and green. Then he was caught by the sixth lady of the Zhong family and was chased all over the city, making it known to the whole city of Linzi.
Then Lu Yihui arrived, Wang Sun Mingyue arrived...all the old acquaintances who were invited arrived.
The place suddenly became lively. Fu Xiaoguan looked at each person carefully. These people had changed. What had changed was the traces left on their faces by the passing of time. The young boys who were still immature when he was in Wofeng City had now become the pillars of their families, or authorities in certain fields.
"Qingyi, Mr. Li, the old shopkeeper, said that your family has settled in Chang'an. Are you used to it here?"
Chen Qingyi quickly bowed and replied, "Young Master, no, I should call you Master!"
"Master, I'm very used to it. I've even bought a village in Alia City and am thinking of moving my family here... Also, I'd like to bring my mentor here to stay for a while."
"Hmm... your idea is good, but are the medical facilities in Alia City complete?"
"My Lord, it's much better now than before. Last year, Minister Yun Xiyan sent some graduates from Daxia Medical College here. They built a medical school here and opened an official hospital. Some students have also opened clinics in the city. I heard that many students have also gone to the three countries here to provide medical assistance."
Fu Xiaoguan was extremely pleased. Yun Xiyan was a thoughtful boy. When the Yingtian Continent was developed in the future, he would have to send him there to be a steward.
The tension in the hearts of Wang Chaofeng and others gradually disappeared. Fu Xiaoguan did not have the slightest domineering imperial aura. He was still approachable and just like the Earl of Ding'an whom they met in Wofeng City that year.
Bai Yulian, who was standing behind Fu Xiaoguan, felt relieved when she heard his hearty laughter. This guy seemed to have returned to the way he was in Xishan.
