Chapter 258： Invitation from Gyeonggi Province

In the eyes of others, the ability to grow winter wheat on sand is definitely a matter of subverting common sense.

This means that Jinxia City, which was originally an area lacking cultivated land, instantly has a large area of ​​land that can be exploited. After all, the long coastline to the east is flat and open, and there is also a river into the sea to provide irrigation resources, solving land restrictions. After that, the take-off of agriculture is something that can be met.

In this matter, high priests Sania and Ai Li played a big role.

If you want nodule grass to take root quickly on the coast, you must always have elves to infuse it with magic, but the cultivators are basically Jinxia people. This kind of cooperation is an unfamiliar challenge for both parties. In Shuzhou's aspect, Sania mobilized a group of elves with positive nature to take the lead in entering the test field, while Ai Li relied on her cheerful and lively personality to let people relax a little bit.

It was the joint efforts of both sides that formed this groundbreaking seedling.

In this tense and busy atmosphere, an envoy from the Privy Council came to Jinxia City.

...

"Invite me to Gyeonggi Prefecture?"

In the headquarters lobby, Xia Fan couldn't help being surprised after hearing what the other party said.

"That's it." The visitor patted the corner of his robe—it was slightly muddy. Obviously, in order to send the news as soon as possible, the man who claimed to be Xinwu walked quite hurriedly all the way. "Your recent performance has amazed the above. It just so happens that the Privy Council is preparing a special ceremony and invites you to witness it together."

My... performance?

Xia Fan frowned secretly. All the intersections between him and the Privy Council came from the merit report submitted by the princess. Apart from that, he never had any contact with Gyeonggi.

How did these people notice him?

"Will all Fu Cheng go?"

"How is it possible." Xin Wu smiled. "Those who can participate in this ceremony are all figures who can be ranked in the Privy Council in the future. If Fu Cheng has irreplaceable abilities, he will not be sent outside to manage a state. In fact, in so many Fu Chengli, you are the only one who has received an invitation."

"That's really... I appreciate it."

While Xia Fan responded, he was thinking about the implications of what the Privy Council said. The Fu Cheng person in charge is at least Grade Four with Hundred Blades, and in Zhang Wendaokou, Grade Five is already an extremely difficult threshold to cross. But according to Xinwu's meaning, these fourth-rank and fifth-ranks could not even enter the eyes of higher-ups.

What did you do to make Gyeonggi react like this? And what is that ceremony... won't it be the enthronement ceremony of Prince Ning Weiyuan?

Thinking about it carefully, only a few people knew about the princess's rebellious intentions, and the Privy Council could never have come for this. As for the rumor that he was a listener reached Gyeonggi, it was even more trivial. Could it be that the reason for the other party's invitation was the same as the messenger said, that it was an insight into one's own talents?

Pong!

Suddenly the door to the hall of the headquarters slammed open, and a familiar figure broke in.

"Xia Fan, I heard that the Privy Council sent someone over?"

It was Ning Wanjun, Princess of Quang Binh, who hurriedly walked into the lobby, her voice a little rushed.

"His Royal Highness?" Xia Fan stood up unexpectedly.

Xin Wu also hurriedly bowed and saluted, "In the Xia Nai Privy Council Special Envoy Xin Wu, I have seen Her Royal Highness!"

"What's the matter with you here?" Ning Wanjun stared at the other person, her suspicion almost written on her face.

"That's it, the Privy Council wants to invite Xia Fucheng to Gyeonggi to participate in the upcoming internal ceremony——"

"No, he won't go to Yuancheng!" The princess interrupted without hesitation.

Xin Wu stunned, "His Royal Highness, why not?"

"This--" Ning Wanjun also reacted, her attitude was a little too abrupt, "Jinxia City has a lot of affairs, if the mansion is not there, who will handle it?"

"But Jinxia hasn't been in charge of the government for a long time, nor has he seen evil raging in the city. With all due respect, Your Highness, for dealing with evils like this, you won't be responsible for a Baidan himself?"

Let me tell you that [\\mi\\mi\\reading\\app\\\\] is really good, it's worth installing, after all, you can cache books and read them offline!

"It turns out that Gyeonggi Prefecture also knows that Xia Fan is just the name Hundred Blades." Ning Wanjun immediately changed her remarks, "A four-rank alchemist doesn't need to go to the Crown Prince's ascension ceremony, right? Besides, this matter should not be handled by the Ministry of Rites. Why? Why did you run errands?"

Xin Wu paused, "Oh? Your Royal Highness also knows what happened in the palace?"

"Why, I can't know?" The princess frowned.

"No, you are the third princess after all. It is normal to have the ability to inquire about the changes in the palace." Xin Wu immediately lowered his head, "You are right. The ceremony of the crown prince should indeed be the responsibility of the Ministry of Rites, but how does he do it? No matter who you want to invite to participate, it has nothing to do with the Privy Council. The ceremony above that I hope Master Xia can participate in is purely an internal matter within the Privy Council, and... I don’t think he is only a four-ranked hundred sword after he has been to Gyeonggi. ."

"What do you mean?"

Xin Wu bowed his hands, "As far as I know, those who can receive this invitation are all core members of the Privy Council. Sending invitations outside of Shangyuan is a very rare event in itself. The last alchemist who received this honor , More than twenty years ago-and he is now a Yuyi."

Yui...

Ning Wanjun and Xia Fan couldn't help but glance at each other. That was the highest official title in the Privy Council. An alchemist who can be promoted to the first rank must have made great contributions to the Privy Council in addition to his extraordinary ability. How important is the nature and significance of this ceremony?

"What are the benefits of being a core member?"

As soon as Xia Fan said these words, he felt the princess cast a sharp look.

"For an alchemist, there is no better prospect than this. Not only the materials for the spell can be used at will, but it is also easier to get the guidance and communication of other high-level alchemists. There are also various types of spell knowledge other than Daqi. , The Privy Council has recorded many studies, these secret anecdotes and different records will be open to you Speaking of this, Xin Wu’s tone is full of envy, "Besides, this is just the benefits that have been available before. After the ceremony, the resources you will get will be unimaginable! "

Xia Fan's heart moved.

Secret Record...

Could this be a good opportunity to get news of Qingjian?

He did not forget the agreement with Li.

"What kind of trick is the ceremony you are talking about?" The princess said impatiently, "Since it has nothing to do with the crown prince's enthronement, why use this name?"

"I can't answer your question-how to call it is the above decision. As for its specific content, in fact, only the real participants know it." Xin Wu slightly regretted, "I am only responsible for delivering the message, far from it. Qualified to get in touch with the core members."

"How many days will this matter? You won't let me stay in Shangyuan City forever?" Xia Fan said in a relaxed tone on purpose.

"How come, the core members are equal to each other, and there is no one who leads the other. Qingjian, Yuyi, blood, identity...These are all things that are only used for outsiders." Xin Wu showed a strange touch. Smile, as if you are laughing at these titles. If you get their approval through the ceremony, you will naturally be listed in the highest rank of the Privy Council. At that time, where you want to go and what you want to do is your freedom. "

Gyeonggi General Government will actually implement such a loose system? "Then when everyone thinks differently, isn't it... a little confused?"

This is already the euphemism Xia Fan can think of.

"That's not a question I can figure out, but..." Xinwu paused, "Those adults seem to be working for the same goal, at best they are all different in methods. If you can join in, I think it will be too. Will be infected by their ambitions."
