407 Relocation to the new prefecture
His face betrayed his doubt as he asked softly, "It seems that this matter has not only failed to shake the morale of the army, but has also enriched and united the state of Qi."
Therefore, it seems that even without these powerful and influential families, the Qi Kingdom would still function normally. Wouldn't that make all the difference?
The theory of universal governance can also be overturned.
Yun Qing nodded slightly and said, "What Sister Qinghui said makes sense. This is true of the Qi Kingdom and the Red King."
Ruling by force, decisive and ruthless, simple and effective. It certainly seems to be working well now. Shen Lang could try this approach as well.
After thinking for a moment, he said, "The kingdom has a very good geographical location and many powerful sects, including some with profound foundations. It is much more complex than the Red King and the Qi Kingdom."
Looking back now, the Holy Emperor's decisiveness in killing was far greater than that of the Red King at the time. How he eventually stopped is something we can hardly guess.
In the current environment, compared to Shen Lang, Shen Lang can simply set the rules here. We will discuss future matters at a more thorough time.
Despite the complex environment and various intricate systems, people in places like Bodai Prefecture generally lead a more peaceful and comfortable life compared to other areas.
Then there was the Red King, who slaughtered the entire previous generation of royalty, causing rivers of blood to flow, staining the ground red and soaking the earth, yet he was loved and respected by the people, who wished him to live a long and healthy life.
The clatter of hooves slowed as the caravan gradually approached the city gate.
The cold rain bells drifted down gently, like a fairy.
He Chen and Yun Suwei Qinghui also landed gently together, waiting quietly.
Master Yue looked closely at the old ancestor before him. The changes were truly remarkable. He was wearing a long dress and looked even more dignified than before.
He got out of the car, took a few quick steps forward, and respectfully bowed, saying, "Disciple Yue Zhanyi greets the Ancestor."
He kowtowed three times respectfully.
He Chen, Yun Qing, Yun Su, and Wei Qinghui were slightly taken aback, their eyes filled with smiles. "Ancestor."
Han Linling didn't care about this before, after all, she was of such status. The legendary craftsmanship wasn't based on age, and these nominal disciples could only be said to have some talent.
However, today, being addressed as "Ancestor" by someone much older than himself makes him feel somewhat awkward.
His face remained calm as he said softly, "Get up. You must be tired from your journey. Let them rest first."
Turning to Old Man Weng, she said softly, "Steward Weng, thank you for your trouble."
Old Master Weng said respectfully, "Madam, you're too kind. It's nothing I should do."
Upon hearing the word "Madam," Yue Zhanyi was immediately surprised. His ancestor had finally gotten married, and his eyes were about to open with congratulations.
Han Linling's eyes flashed as she stared at Yue Zhanyi, who immediately shut up.
He said softly, "Thank you, Elder Weng. Xiao Lin, please follow Elder Weng's instructions and make sure everyone is settled."
The young man who had just caught the train arrived immediately. "Yes."
He dared not say more. This was the first time he had ever seen the ancestor before him. He had initially thought it was indeed the ancestor, but something seemed off. He was too young. Was he really an old demon?
But it doesn't seem like it either, that is, she really is that young.
Looking at the other people around, the women were stunningly beautiful; to look at them even once would be considered a desecration.
Han Linling paid no attention to what others thought, gently stepped aside, and let the convoy pass quickly.
Yue Zhanyi automatically followed not far from Han Linling.
Having cultivated to a high level, he naturally sensed the powerful oppressive aura of the others.
The people before him exuded the aura of fierce tigers and wild beasts, making him hesitant to look directly at them. He quietly awaited the patriarch's introduction. However, with so many people guarding this place, safety was undoubtedly greatly enhanced.
The carriages slowly drove away. On some of them, the curtains were gently opened, and people were curiously looking at the outside world. This place would be their place of residence for a period of time, or even their permanent home.
A tall city wall always gives people a sense of security. The children, smelling the tempting aroma of food, couldn't help but drool.
The woman and the old woman surveyed the bustling crowd. The atmosphere was like a melting furnace; suddenly, an invisible, all-encompassing heat dispelled the chill within them, and they instantly felt a warmth akin to the spring equinox.
Along the way, there are fields stretching as far as the eye can see, seemingly endless, extending into the distance.
The crops on the land have been almost completely harvested, and the next season's crops have already been sown in the fields. The tender seedlings sway gently in the breeze, bringing a sense of peace and tranquility, and a sense of anticipation for next year's harvest.
Moreover, birds frequently flew over the fields, their cheerful chirping breaking the fatigue of the journey.
There are indeed many small birds foraging in the fields, treetops, and grass. This place is truly wonderful; otherwise, where would the birds find food to survive?
The old man, the woman, and the young man couldn't help but laugh happily, their faces beaming with joy. With so much land, there must have been a lot of farm tools and other ironware to be used.
We also have a lot of work to do.
Xiao Lin gently said to the old man who had poked his head out, "Uncle Lin, I see this place is really lively. We'll have plenty of work to do in the future. Once I've saved up some money, I can get married."
Ideally, we could buy a house here, so my wife wouldn't have to keep moving around with me, and she'd have a place to stay.
Uncle Lin straightened his new cotton-padded coat, intending to put on an old coat so as not to get his new clothes dirty. However, seeing that the people on the street were generally dressed quite well, he put the old coat back.
He looked closely and replied softly, "It looks good. Look at those merchants, their faces are beaming, not sad. That means the area is safe, and there probably aren't many complicated gangs."
As Xiao Lin drove the carriage, following the lead of Old Weng, he looked around. There were many tall buildings, taverns, and shops, but he didn't hear the sound of blacksmithing very often.
He said softly, "Uncle Lin, it seems there aren't any blacksmiths here. I think there's quite a lot of work; there are so many people. I'd guess several hundred thousand."
Uncle Lin looked around and nodded. 'I reckon there are more, if not more. There are other convoys on the road, also heading this way. I saw quite a few farm tools on them.'
Old Weng's carriage came to a gentle stop. The street was quiet and the road surface was clean and tidy. Rows of brand-new houses were visible, which made Xiao Lin envious. Uncle Lin's eyes were also full of anticipation.
Old Man Weng got out of the car, and Xiao Lin and Uncle Lin stepped forward to his side. Uncle Lin looked shocked and bowed, asking, "Steward Weng, is this our temporary accommodation?"
Old Man Weng chuckled gently and said, "Please don't be so polite, just call me Old Man Weng. That's my surname."
Then he said definitively, 'This is not just a temporary residence for you; it will be your house from now on.'
