(Meow, today's first update, everyone has been waiting for a long time.)
Dreams were beautiful, but reality was harsh.
Inside Xianyang Palace.
"I really don't know how Young Master thought of all this. Just this disciple reform is enough to make people sigh in admiration.”
Ying Zheng, Li Si, and the others worked until daybreak, but they still could not perfect any of the systems. Although Xianyang was now being used as a pilot, it was still very difficult, because they only knew the framework.
As a last resort, Ying Zheng did not even hold the morning court session today.
Early in the morning, Xia Yu went into the kitchen and made his breakfast. Although his relationship with the Moon Goddess was a little dull, he couldn't leave it hanging. Moreover, he might eat it when he became interested in it in the future.
"Here, pumpkin porridge. It's good for your face and stomach.”
"Cultivators do not need to eat." Xiaomeng seemed to be still angry with Xia Yu. Although the two girls had a good relationship, they still quarreled.
Even though she said that, she still couldn't help but feel hungry after smelling the fragrance. When she got home, she practiced Taoist techniques and paid attention to the nature of the world. To put it bluntly, the funny thing was that there was no one in Daoism who knew how to cook. They were all a group of old men who usually ate in the open. Later on, the Human Sect and the Confucian Sect got closer, so they also started to eat. However, they also ate simple tea and plain rice.
"You made it?" Ji Qingcheng raised her eyebrows. She had eaten delicious food before, but she had never eaten anything as delicious as this. If she knew that this pumpkin porridge was a disposable breakfast porridge brought by Xia Yu from the modern era, she would not know what to think.
"Young Master, Gongshu Chou requests an audience." Yesterday, Ying Zheng had asked Zhang Han to stay behind. Even if he didn't want to stay, he had no choice. He was originally a shady character, but now, even the identity token of the head guard of the Shadow Guards had been given to Zhao Qin (Zhao Cheng). The Shadow Guards recognized the identity token but not the person, so he had nowhere to go.
"Let him in. Even if he doesn't come, I'll go find him.”
Gongshu Chou still seemed to be living in a dream. He had just arrived home yesterday, and Zhao Gao had already arrived with Ying Zheng's decree, which was to abolish his status as a hardworking person, grant him a title of nobility, and enjoy a salary. These were all things that he did not dare to imagine in the past. Xia Yu had given him a new lease of life.
"This old servant greets Young Master."
"Don't call yourself an old servant anymore. You're a seventh-grade official with a noble title, and you still call yourself an old servant.”
"Thank you, Young Master."
"Even if you didn't come, I still wanted to find you. Remember the Yin-Yang Heaven Peering Art I mentioned yesterday? I need your help now, and there are still many places that need your help. As long as you're meritorious, the rewards in the future will be huge.”As Xia Yu spoke, she suddenly thought of a certain country in her previous life. Hehe, that was the place with the fewest cases of female archers in the world. As for that place, you know.
"Please instruct me, Young Master."
"Beautiful master, it's your turn." Xia Yu ran to the kitchen and scooped a bowl of porridge for the two girls.
"I knew you weren't a good person.”Ji Qingcheng looked at Xia Yu's fawning expression and couldn't help but laugh." I didn't say that I wouldn't help you. Why are you pretending to be so pitiful?"”
"…" You should have said so earlier. I was afraid that you would be jealous of what happened yesterday and cause more trouble.
"However, the Yin-Yang Heaven Peering Art doesn't need to use a mechanism technique. Moreover, the Yin-Yang Heaven Peering Art isn't a technique of the Yin-Yang School. It's something I adapted from the sacrificial technique of the Western Zhou Dynasty. It requires blood as a medium. The sacrificial technique originated from the Xia Dynasty. It's a technique that people use to pray to the heavens for help when they encounter droughts, storms, and other weather conditions. Later on, when I founded the Yin-Yang School, in order to prevent anyone from taking advantage of the situation, I created the Yin-Yang Heaven Peering Art. The first drop of blood must be in the storage medium cauldron. Whether the disciple who entered the door was a disciple of the sect or not, the Yin-Yang Mantra on the Goddess Peak would automatically identify him.”
"Do I need a cauldron to collect the medium?" Xia Yu frowned. Cauldrons were too important in this era, especially the blood of the people of Xianyang City. The cauldron needed would not be small, and it would be easily destroyed by others.
"You don't have to worry about that. I know what you're worried about.”Ji Qingcheng put down the bowl in her hand. Two bowls of porridge was already too much. She usually didn't eat anything. "Although the effect of the Yin-Yang Heaven Peering Art has changed, its essence has not changed. The cauldron itself contains the blood of the people. As long as the people are united, the heavens will repay the people. Not only will it have the effect of praying for blessings, but it will also strengthen the body. Once the people obtain benefits, they will be grateful. This gratitude can be returned to the Qin country and increase the country's luck.”
Ji Qingcheng glanced at him and continued,""If your new law can be implemented, then the fate of the Qin country will definitely increase. It might even be unprecedented. As long as the cauldron is not destroyed, even if the Qin country is destroyed, it can rise again. Unless…"
"Unless what?" Xia Yu's heart tightened. If this thing wasn't preserved well, it would be fatal.
"Unless the State of Qin is destroyed and not a single person is left.”
" In addition, there is another benefit of the Art of Sacrifice. For example, people like Ying Zheng, if their cultivation base is not high, or if they have hidden diseases, they only need to build a statue and connect the statue with the cauldron using the Yin Yang Art, then a part of the kingdom's fortune can be transferred to them. Not only can it strengthen their bodies and increase their cultivation base, but it can also allow them to live a long life and delay their aging.”
"Really?"
"Of course. How else do you think totems come about?”
"Is there anyone else who knows this kind of sacrificial technique besides you?”Xia Yu was a little worried. It would be difficult to destroy it by force, but as long as one was familiar with the Art of Sacrifice, it would be much easier to destroy it.
"Sacrificial arts were learned from the Xia Dynasty in the Western Zhou Dynasty.”After saying this, Ji Qingcheng sighed," I'm the only one in this world who knows the Art of Sacrifice. In the first place, only the rulers of the dynasties can preside over the ritual. If someone else knew it, the seven kingdoms wouldn't be in such a state of decline.”
"That's good, that's good." Xia Yu knew that Ji Qingcheng was thinking of Zhou Zhou. She held her hand and said," Don't worry, I'll do everything. I'll definitely do what I promised you."”
"Right, there's one more thing that's important.”Ji Qingcheng didn't pull her hand away. Xia Yu's actions warmed his heart," The Qin Country was born with the times. Although there will be some setbacks in the future, it is certain that the Qin Country will be able to unify the world. Now that you have appeared, the Moon Goddess and I will no longer be able to predict the future of the Qin Country. But this is a good thing because the fate of the Qin Country is blocking our divination. In other words, the fate of the Qin Country will only grow stronger and stronger. The importance of the fate of a country is incomparable to anything else. If one's new law could be announced to the world during the sacrificial ceremony and gain the support of the people, then not only could one obtain providence from the feedback of the people, but they could also snatch the providence of other countries through publicity.”
"Boss Zhang, please go to Xianyang Palace and inform father and Old Man Wei about this.”After all, this matter involved too many things, so he did not dare to jump to conclusions.
"Young Master, I can't enter Xianyang Palace anymore.”
"Stupid! With Gongshu Chou, he was already an official.”
Zhang Han was speechless.
Gongshu Chou,"…" I didn't do anything after listening for a long time. Did I become the token to enter Xianyang Palace?
