"It's right for you to think so."
Wang Cuiyun grinned, went into the house, poured a cup of tea for Xu Lian, and placed it on the stone table in the yard.
She kept mumbling, "On the surface, Xiya is the core member among the three women in this family, but in reality, it is me. As long as I am here, this family will not fall apart."
“?” Xu Lian was confused.
Is she the core member of this family
I wonder where she gets her confidence from
Wang Cuiyun said, "Master, think about it. With your current status and position, what kind of woman can you not want
Xiya is a girl with a more pretty figure, a thinner waist, a bigger butt, and is easier to give birth to. Although girls like Xiya are rare in the town, they are not the only ones. As long as you take the time to look for them, you can still find one or two substitutes.
By the same token, Chan'er is just a little more delicate and well-behaved. There are a lot of girls like Chan'er in the town, so it is not difficult to find similar girls.
I am different. For a woman like me who is good at housekeeping, if I consider myself second, no one dares to be first.
On the day Xiya and Chan'er left, I had already spread the word that our family needed a young woman to move in. This news quickly spread throughout the town.
These days, every evening, hundreds or even thousands of women come to our house to apply for marriage, which keeps me very busy. I have already done a preliminary screening for you and selected about thirty young and good-looking women according to Xiya and Chaner's standards.
I will call them over this evening and I can make further selection. It’s also okay not to be picky and take them all in. Anyway, our family can afford to support them.
Therefore, the absence of Xiya and Chaner from the family was not a big deal.
As long as I am in this house, I can assure you that I will live a life of peace and happiness every day."
"..."Xu Lian's eyes widened.
She is really awesome.
Xu Lian didn't have time to chat with her, so he hurriedly left the house, rode his horse, and went straight to the mine. He had many questions in his mind, and he wanted to ask the White Fox Mine Patrolman.
Upon learning that the steward had returned, Pu Lin, Zhang Yuan, Lin Bufeng and Yang Ye hurried over to pay their respects.
The miners working in the mine also looked at the young manager in bright clothes and on a vigorous horse with curiosity.
On the boat from Pingyang County back to Luzhu Town, Xu Lian had already used up his advancement points and thirty-two Qi Condensation Pills to be promoted to the sixth level of Mingjin Stage.
The current Xu Lian is very different from before. He looks handsome and elegant, and the temperament of a cultivator radiates from the inside out, which is enough to make ordinary people feel ashamed of themselves.
Xu Lian briefly asked Pu Lin about the situation at their mine, then waved his hand, "Go and do your work, don't bother me if you have nothing to do."
Pu Lin and the others were busy.
Yang Ye was a little embarrassed and didn't leave, "My dear son-in-law, Chan'er... is really ignorant. She doesn't know that you are her man and her heaven. How can she go with Li Xiya?"
Xu Lian said, "It's okay. Chan'er is with Sister Xiya every day. The sisters have a deep bond. It's natural for her to want to accompany Sister Xiya. I won't blame her, and father-in-law doesn't have to worry that I will vent my anger on your family."
Yang Ye was relieved and said with a smile, "The young woman I married recently is pregnant. If it is a daughter, she may be prettier than Chan'er when she grows up."
Xu Lian couldn't help but admire that everyone in this world was a talented person. Now that Chan'er had left, Yang Ye wanted to continue this relationship with him
Xu Lian instructed, "Although Wang Cuiyun is the only one left in my family, my father-in-law still has to patrol. After all, there is a lot of money and food at home. I am worried that some despicable people will sneak into the house and take away Wang Cuiyun's money and food. If that happens, I will not be able to explain myself to Sister Xiya in the future."
Yang Ye replied “yes” and quickly led his men out of the mine and went back to patrol.
Xu Lian entered the stone house, took out the purple jade tablet, and focused his mind on it, "Sir, the mine inspector, I have something to ask you."
I waited for a while.
A white shadow appeared in the jungle outside the window, flickering and moving.
Soon, he jumped into the stone house through the window.
Xu Lian found that his eyesight still could not keep up with the speed of the white fox, which showed that there was still a big gap in his cultivation.
Upon seeing Xu Lian, the white fox was stunned, staring at him with its lively eyes, "Sixth level of Ming Jin period?"
Xu Lian bowed and reported truthfully, "During this period, I went to Pingyang County and used my position as an inspector and the purple jade token you gave me to obtain some cultivation resources to improve my strength, so my cultivation progressed faster."
The white fox looked at him strangely. "Even if you have enough merit for cultivation, you are advancing too fast. I haven't seen you for a few days, and you have already reached the sixth level of Ming Jin Stage. I am beginning to doubt whether you are the reincarnation of some great master."
Xu Lian said, "The mine inspector is joking."
The white fox said seriously, "I'm not joking. Your cultivation speed really shocked me. I've never seen anyone who cultivates so fast, and I've never even heard of it."
Blame me... Xu Lian smiled and said, "I'm definitely not the reincarnation of some great being. Maybe I have a high talent for cultivation?"
The white fox looked at him deeply, "Maybe. It's nothing to practice fast in the early stage. If you can keep practicing so fast, you will definitely have a place in this world in the near future."
Xu Lian bowed again, "Then I will take advantage of your good words, sir."
The white fox asked, "You called me here because the woman in your family was taken away, right?"
Xu Lian nodded. "If it was any other woman, it would be fine, but Li Xiya is my first wife. She and I have a deep relationship. I am in pain."
The white fox was silent for a moment. "I promised you that I would not let the imperial court invade Green Bamboo Town again. I broke my promise. I'm sorry."
Xu Lian said quickly, "The inspector of mines has been very considerate of me. I have no intention of holding him accountable. I just want to know what the position of the man who took Sister Xiya away is in the court, and why even the inspector of mines could not stop him?"
The white fox said, "That man, when he was young, was originally one of the legitimate princes of the You Dynasty's royal family. He was extremely talented, and in recent years he was even named the King of Zhennan. The old emperor of the You Dynasty has reached his twilight years, and it seems that he intends to let him ascend to the throne."
The King of Zhennan? Ascend to the throne? Xu Lian was surprised, and then asked in confusion, "When Wang Cuiyun was young, she lived in poverty. In order to have enough food, she often invited men passing by into her house. Her relationships with men and women were chaotic, and she could almost be said to have slept with anyone. That man had a good relationship with Wang Cuiyun, and Li Xiya was born under such circumstances. This should be a stain on that man's life. Since he wants to ascend to the throne of the You Dynasty, he should keep Li Xiya away from him. Why did he insist on bringing Li Xiya to the capital?"
The white fox said, "That's where the problem lies. The ancestors of the You Dynasty's royal family used the power of their bloodline to cut through the thorns and brambles, and fought their way through the numerous sects and races to establish the You Dynasty. Bloodline is the lifeblood of the You Dynasty's royal family, and it is also the foundation of the country, and it is even the only criterion for assessing whether one can inherit the throne.
The Prince of Zhennan has many children and descendants, but the only one who has truly and perfectly inherited his bloodline talent is Li Xiya from your family. Therefore, the Prince of Zhennan is determined to bring Li Xiya from your family back at all costs.
The Prince of Zhennan bypassed me, the mining inspector of Green Bamboo Town, and negotiated conditions directly with the Yi Sect. I don’t know what benefits he promised to the Yi Sect, but the head of the sect personally ordered me not to obstruct.
This Li Xiya is really in love with you. I was there when the Prince of Zhennan took her away. Her only condition was that the court should not harm you and Wang Cuiyun."
Sister Xiya, it's really... Xu Lian was moved, and remembered the tall, thin, pale-faced, gloomy-looking man who broke into his house a few days ago, and what he said, the story of the phoenix and the beast, "So it seems that Li Xiya will not be wronged when she returns to the imperial capital of the You Dynasty, right?"
The white fox said, "You can rest assured about this. With the power of the royal bloodline of the You Dynasty that she has perfectly inherited, the You Dynasty will never let her suffer the slightest injustice. They will definitely do their best to train her and accumulate a large amount of cultivation resources for her."
Xu Lian finally felt relieved, but he couldn't help feeling melancholy.
He is just a small disciple of the Yi Sect, but Sister Xiya is the most powerful princess of the You Dynasty. She is like a rising supernova, and she is bound to shine brightly and illuminate the earth.
The identities and status of the two people are as different as heaven and earth, cloud and mud. I don’t know when they will meet again.
When we meet, I don’t know what the scene will be like
Reviewing the old and learning the new, hugging each other and crying
Or can I just watch from afar
Or maybe, things and people have changed, and they are left speechless
As if seeing his complicated feelings, the white fox said, "If you can maintain your current practice, sooner or later you will be able to set foot in the imperial capital of the You Dynasty, and there will always be a possibility of seeing her again, but..."
Xu Lian asked, "Just what?"
The white fox said, "You have to practice faster, the faster the better, because Li Xiya's bloodline is very important to the You Dynasty royal family. When the You Dynasty royal family cultivates her to the point where her bloodline is mature, they will definitely let her reproduce and contribute to the You Dynasty royal family's bloodline. If you go too late, she may have many children."
Xu Lian felt heavy-hearted. He believed that Sister Xiya would not do this, but the You Dynasty royal family would definitely do anything to continue their bloodline. For example, they would threaten his and Wang Cuiyun's lives? Or drug them? Or use some kind of illusion
Thinking of the illusion, Xu Lian asked, "By the way, I just arrived at the door of my house and seemed to see an illusion?"
The white fox said, "That is a more advanced technique of leaving a picture. If you don't have time to say goodbye, you can leave a scene similar to an illusion for farewell. It should be that Li Xiya wanted to say goodbye to you before leaving, and the King of Zhennan helped her perform this technique of leaving a picture in order to take her away earlier."
Xu Lian bowed and said, "I have a favor to ask. The Inspector of Mines is well-informed. If the court of the You Dynasty plans to select a consort for Sister Xiya in the near future, I beg you to let me know."
The white fox asked, "You want to go to the imperial capital of the You Dynasty to participate in the election for a royal consort?"
Xu Lian's eyes were firm. "No matter what, I can't give up. If I miss it, it will be a regret for my whole life."
"All right."
The white fox agreed.
Seeing that he was fine, the white fox turned around and jumped out of the window, remembering something, "Your cultivation has reached the Ming Jin stage, you can ask your clone to go to the altar and ask for the last few volumes of the Broken Wind Sword Technique."
Xu Lian was overjoyed.
Immediately, he closed his eyes.
The white cat clone started to move, running towards the altar.
Very smooth.
To the altar.
After explaining his purpose, he received the second and third volumes of the Broken Wind Sword Technique.
The white cat clone dug a hole and buried the sword manual under a tree.
Xu Lian dug it out and included it directly, and his strength was enhanced to a certain extent.
