First Class Concubine

Chapter 168 It's been a year
boom! !

Thunderstorms accompanied by torrential rain ravaged the world.Also for the night, by virtue of the crisis.

Qijing woke up from the dream and opened her eyes suddenly.The fear in his eyes was so thick that he couldn't get rid of it.

"Don't be afraid, Xiao Qi is not afraid, it's just a nightmare. Xiao Qi is not afraid, Chen is here." As soon as she moved, Le Chen immediately woke up.Seeing her like this, he immediately hugged her tighter, patted her on the back while coaxing her, and softly called her name: "Xiao Qi is not afraid, Chen is here."

In the gaping eye sockets, the eyeballs finally moved, the eyelids blinked, and he took a deep breath: "I'm dreaming."

"It's just a dream, don't be afraid."

Qijing turned around abruptly, reached out and took out brocade bags from under the pillow.Open it and take out the crystal nucleus inside.Unexpectedly, with a shake of the hand, all the other things inside fell out.

A few pearls jingled and fell to the side of the pillow.One of them almost hit her, but Le Chen quickly caught it.

"Xiao Qi, tell me, what's the matter?" Le Chen was completely awake, hugged her and sat up, looked into her eyes worriedly, trying to see what she was thinking.

"A dream, in a dream..." She passed the crystal nucleus forward in her hand, "There is this."

"What happened to it?"

"I don't know." She didn't actually have a dream. People in the last days don't have dreams.It was just that the thunder was so loud that it woke her up.Just the moment she woke up, she suddenly lost control of her body.

Her soul seemed to be forcibly pulled out of this body by something.Just when she thought that she was going to be completely dragged away, and this short life was about to end like this, the crystal nucleus under the pillow suddenly emitted colorful light.Covered her soul, and pulled her back.

This is the moment of panic when I opened my eyes.

"It's been a year." Qi Jing murmured suddenly.

"What year?" Le Chen was anxious and worried, but Qijing ignored him and didn't talk to him, so he could only be anxious and observe carefully.

"It's been a year since I left the country." Qijing regained his senses, "On this day last year, there was also such a heavy rain, and the thunder was thunderous. Probably... this is also the point. The servants of the Su family, listen I don't know who gave the order to kill me. My mother tried her best to protect me. In the end, I was fine, but she was seriously injured and almost died. But I failed to protect her, and was taken away that night. ..."

She clenched her hands tightly, and her hands hurt from the crystal nucleus. "You said, is she still alive?"

"Alive, must still be alive. We will definitely find her, and we can be filial to her in the future, so that she will be safe and healthy for the rest of her life, without any worries. We can also have many children, so that she can enjoy her grandchildren and enjoy her old age. "

Qijing nodded: "Yes, I must be alive." She will live herself, and live well.

Lie down again, and was hugged tightly by Le Chen again.

"Why is your body so cold?" Le Chen frowned.

"I was scared just now, take it easy, it will be fine in a while."

"Really okay?"

"It's okay." Rubbing in his arms: "It's really okay, don't worry." He yawned, closed his eyes, and fell into a deep sleep after a while.

The fusion of soul and body consumes a lot of mental energy.

As soon as she fell asleep, Le Chen immediately took her pulse again to make sure that she was really fine. Moreover, it seemed that she was in better health than during the day after being frightened. Although she didn't know why it happened, she also breathed a sigh of relief.

It's just that when he was sleeping, he hugged people tighter, as if he was afraid that the people around him would be snatched away.

……

It rained for several days in a row.

In and out of the city, mud is everywhere.But those soldiers did not stop training. The previous battle made them discover the benefits of training.In order to survive, everyone is now enthusiastic.

It's just that training now is different from the past.

Qijing arranged for people to fetch stones from the nearby mountains, and let people carry back the gravel and the gravel face.Sprinkle it on the road, and trample all those muddy roads into gravel roads.

Although it is not as good as a cement road, for the common people, this is already very important.

10 people just sprinkled stones on the ground of a city, and it didn't take a few days.As for those boulders, Qijing asked to put them aside alone for other purposes.

After the stone was quarried, wood was started again.

Wood, large and small, was transported back, and the army voluntarily helped to repair houses in the city.The common people can't stop singing praises to the army.

Under Lechen's deliberate guidance, all these incidents carried the shadow of Qijing.

As for Qijing himself.

After that night, she wore the crystal nucleus on her body and never left her body.The energy of the crystal nucleus is absorbed every day, and the body is slowly recovering.But what was going on, she still couldn't figure it out.I just thought, maybe it's because they are from the same world, it's a predestined relationship.

If she couldn't figure it out, she stopped thinking about it. The hidden dangers in her body disappeared, and she began to toss about the previous things.

She now fully understands Le Chen's plan.

He has occupied Xiliang City, and the next step is to bring down the entire Xiyi.It turned out that if Xiyi could become king, so could he, Lechen.

After occupying Xiyi, slowly attack Dayan.Dayan is currently fighting with the Xuanwu army, the treasury is becoming more and more empty, and there is no force to deal with him again.

It turns out that whether it is Xiliang City or Xiyi, it is someone else's territory.Qijing didn't think too much about it, whether she was poor or backward, what did it have to do with her?

But it's different now, this place will be their own territory in the future.Naturally, he had to tidy up his own territory.

Xiliang City is the starting point of Lechen's uprising, and of course she wants to make it indestructible.Thousands of years later, people can still come here to visit and tell about someone's bravery and strength, wisdom and greatness.

This will be Le Chen's rear area, so she naturally needs to make a good plan.

"Su Li, how is the purchase of cotton going?"

"Return to the master, the order has been issued. Everything is going well... But, that thing takes up too much space..."

"Send things to these places. Let the craftsmen make more spinning machines and looms. After the cloth is woven, it doesn't have to be shipped out. All of it is made into ready-made clothes and quilts. Finally, the ready-made clothes and quilts will be sent over. that is."

Su Li took the note, glanced at it, and couldn't help being slightly surprised: "Master, I'm afraid there are not many people in these places."

"The rainy season is coming, and those who go down the river will inevitably suffer again. I don't know how many people will flee. You let the people below pay attention, and then buy more people. It doesn't matter if it's a family or a family. It’s also fine. I bought it and brought it all to these places. There are houses and land in these places, but people go to the vacant buildings and let them repair them later, so they can be used.”

"Master Gao Yi."

Qijing scoffed secretly, she didn't have any high righteousness.It's just that, since those people were fleeing, she just got some cheap labor.In the end, it's all about what you need.She needed it, so she gave them this chance.

After Su Li left, Qijing called Su Chen again and asked her to send a letter to Ji Nanxing.That's her new training plan, well, there are some small tasks.

For example, climbing a mountain, carrying those big rocks, carrying big logs... to the designated location.

Let Lechen arrange people to take turns to help build houses, large warehouses and workshops.Let those who know carpentry lead people to do carpentry, looms, spinning machines...

Le Chen has always fully supported her affairs.What's more, what she did was all for them.Those cotton padded clothes were all made for his soldiers.

Because the news was notified, those guys below did not complain at all when they started to do things.

Qijing even suggested: "Let's get a little more stable here, and develop for a while. You can also take over the families of those soldiers. No matter what, people are the fundamental thing!"

"Xiao Qi is very reasonable, but this matter is not urgent."

It's really not urgent, but you can't be slow.Who knows that the emperor of Dayan might go crazy one day.

"By the way, your steward seems to have entered the city today, and followed Su Dui to the other courtyard." Le Chen looked at the blueprints of the Seven Scenes Painting, and said, "They seem to have brought someone here." That person, Le Chen frowned: "That person's identity is a bit wrong."

Qijing raised his eyes and looked over: "The identity is wrong? Who is it?"

"That man is the killer of Youming Pavilion. Didn't you lose a copy of your painting before? It should be in his hands. For some reason, Su Dui got mixed up with him and even changed his name to Mingsha"

"Mingsha! Ha..." Qijing laughed: "That's the name." Then he said: "He should have come to see me." Speaking of this, she suddenly smiled: "He used to have something to do with Gu Qianqian, Then it fell into my hands. There are still a few people..." After a pause, he said, "The man from the iron mine was with them."

Le Chen raised his eyebrows in surprise: "Why don't I know?"

Qijing smiled triumphantly: "The people you sent, if I want to hide, how can they really keep up?"

Le Chen scratched her nose: "Naughty. Don't hide away next time. If you don't want them to know, let him stand far away. Don't risk it alone."

"I told them not to contact me casually, but unexpectedly, he came here."

"Then let's meet." Le Chen said indifferently: "It just so happens that I have an old friend of his here, let them meet too."

"Old man?"

"You still caught it."

She has long since forgotten.It's not her fault at all, except for Le Chen and her own affairs, she doesn't care about other things at all.Whether it's people or things, the unimportant ones are all thrown away when they turn around.

"You decide."

The next day, Lechen accompanied her and met people together.

Su Dui took Ma Changan and killed him, well, now his name is Mingsha.And Le Chen also brought a person over, originally code-named Shadow, now called Ying Qi.

"This subordinate has seen the master." As soon as the three of Su Dui came in, they saluted Qijing first.Then he saluted to Le Chen: "I have seen the Fourth Highness."

Le Chen didn't take it seriously, but just looked at Ming Sha with a cold face: "Back then, the painting that your master drew in the palace was at your place?"

Mingsha's expression remained unchanged, he only glanced at Qijing carefully: "Not here."

Qijing raised his eyebrows, and he immediately coughed again: "Master Mingjian, the painting is indeed not in the hands of the subordinates now. However, it was indeed the subordinates who took the painting back then."

"Where is that painting now?" Le Chen has been thinking about it.

"Uh... this, my subordinates don't know either. At that time, my subordinates just passed by, and then entered the warehouse of Youming Pavilion. Later, the stronghold of Youming Pavilion was copied, and my subordinates thought that the painting was obtained by the government. Go. I found out later that before that, someone inside the Nether Pavilion got the news and stole some things early..."
