After the immortal disappeared

Jing Jing giggled and said, "I will protect this money tree of yours."

"With less than 20% of the profit, I can ask the ruler of this country to protect me." He Lingchuan finished the last lantern cake, "Is it a good deal?"

"On the other hand, for every vihara sold, we can immediately get 85% of the profit!"

As for the final payment to King Yao, that will happen four months later.

Four months, haha.

…

When He Lingchuan returned to the Sanmentou Post House, the rain had cleared and the clouds had dispersed, and suddenly the sun was shining brightly.

In the rainy season in Tianshui City, such good weather is rare. Fan Shuang immediately said to He Lingchuan: "I know that Brother He is going to do something big, so God is willing to do something good."

"Brother Fan is becoming more and more skillful at praising others."

Fan Shuang laughed and did not deny it. In the past two months, he thought he had grown up very quickly, and he didn't know how he could be so dull in the past ten years.

The foundation laying ceremony of Youhu Villa was held today.

He Lingchuan came to visit Youhu Lake as soon as he arrived in Tianshui City. Not only is the vegetation beautiful, but there are also many scenic spots. If you walk around, you can see 17 or 18 waterfalls, springs, bays, and caves. It is truly a place where the royal family once nourished their hearts. A place of pleasure.

When I went to the scene today, I saw that the black lake on the south bank of Youhu Lake was full of people!

"Oh, it's so popular!"

There are many royal nobles here, including Prince Qing's Mansion, and more than 20 courtiers and officials have come here, and more than half of them have subscribed to the blueprint price of Youhu Jingshe. Since he is a staunch royalist, how can he miss the foundation laying ceremony of Youhu Villa?

Some 2,400 to 500 people came to watch the excitement, making the scene very lively.

Ever since Youhu Xiaozhu became the place where Qingyang stayed, the lakeside has been deserted, and civilians have not dared to come here to play. He Lingchuan didn't even know where so many people came from today. Anyway, King Yao had his own solution.

When the cheerful musical instrument starts playing, it plays for half an hour.

Although the vegetation of Youhu Lake is dense, the south bank and the small buildings of Youhu Lake are too close to each other. The noisy gongs and drums are still deafening when they reach the small hills——

The group of musicians were all entertainers maintained by Prince Qing's palace. Zhang Yan asked them to use all their strength to make the music as lively as possible.

They tried to show off to Qingyang, but Qingyang refused to look - she was not at Youhu Xiaozhu today, but went to the palace to find King Yao.

Before setting off, He Yang asked her what to do, but she just said don't worry about it and let them play by themselves.

No matter what He Xiao was doing in Youhu, it was just a small fight on the surface. Today, Yao Kingdom's dignitaries gathered together, so it would be unwise to attack him at this time.

When the crowd was buzzing, her elite men opened the soundproof barrier in Youhu Villa, and the surrounding area became quiet again.

Therefore, this bustle was considered a self-pleasure of He Lingchuan and the royalists. Zhang Yan and He Lingchuan first went on stage to say a few non-nutritious words, and then grabbed shovels to dig dirt in the green space and put on a show.

It stands to reason that with a few more firecrackers, the groundbreaking ceremony will be basically completed.

However, the firecrackers ordered by He Lingchuan were thick and long. Each firecracker was three fingers thick and had more than 300 hangings. When it was set off, it crackled endlessly, and the sound was like gunfire, resounding throughout the sky!

The south bank was filled with smoke, and even people could not see clearly.

When the strong wind blows, thick smoke rushes towards the small building in Youhu Lake.

Although Qingyang is not here, her men all live in small buildings. The soundproof barrier can block the sound, but it cannot block the smoke.

The choking white smoke gurgled into the small building, and people coughed and coughed everywhere.

There were many profound practitioners among the Qingwei of Xiaozhu. In anger, they climbed to a high place and performed the Wind Calling Technique, hoping to blow the thick smoke back to the south bank.

However, there was a strong south wind today, which He Lingchuan had planned in advance. Manpower was unable to resist the weather, so six or seven practitioners worked together to cast spells and managed to blow the thick smoke back to the south bank. In the blink of an eye, it was blown back by the strong wind.

The Qingwei were so angry that they wanted to rush out of the small building and show some color to these blind people.

They were born in Bejia, and they followed the supervisory state to and from Yaodu Palace as if they were in an uninhabited land. They were all masters of human beings. How had they ever suffered from this kind of birdiness?

He Yang stopped them firmly: "Don't be impulsive. The palace master has an order. You must stay in the small building honestly all day long!"

Qingyang deliberately left him to watch over Qingwei and prevent them from going out to cause trouble.

The firecrackers went off by themselves, and the onlookers had already moved to the west. Four or five large sheds were set up here to serve as temporary stages, and good plays were sung, clang, clang, clang, clang, clang, clang.

Those troupes were all raised by a few aristocratic families in the deep courtyard, or they were invited from other places, and their skills were on the line. People smiled happily and applauded from time to time.

On the day when the foundation stone of Youhu Villa was laid, the South Bank was bustling for several hours.

In fact, He Lingchuan made several plans in case Qingyang returned halfway and came to make things difficult for him.

If this is the case, he will involve the royal family and nobles present including Prince Qing's Mansion - these royal families are actually representing King Yao today to come to support him, and to cut their face is to cut King Yao's face.

He didn't mind adding fuel to the tense relationship between Yao Wang and Qingyang.

Unfortunately, his plan never came into use.

The soul-capturing mirror was very sorry: "We almost squatted on the old witch's head to stir up trouble, but she could hold back and not come to cause trouble for you."

"You underestimate her too much." If Qingyang was so impatient, how could he sit in the Qing Palace for more than a hundred years?

She probably saw through his intentions.

But He Lingchuan also saw it. Qingyang's absence showed that she intended to control the intensity of her struggle with King Yao and did not want the conflict to intensify.

She had taken enough benefits and had the upper hand, and she didn't want to make the king of Yao angry and furious.

He Lingchuan said to himself: "It's not enough, you have to go overboard."

If Qingyang can endure it, he can take advantage of it.

He gave a few instructions to the supervisor, who then called on his men and copied the men and walked eastward to the ginkgo tree.

Youhu is an open terrain, but the island where Youhu Villa is located is connected to the shore by an arch bridge. There is a ginkgo tree growing beside the bridge, with two people hugging the tree and its branches are luxuriant.

At this season, the apricot leaves have changed color slightly, but they are not at their most beautiful yet.

Standing under the tree and looking out at the lake, it's so beautiful.

“This place is really nice!”

"Hey, dignitaries are so good at enjoying it!" The carpenters admired it for a few moments, then raised their axes to chop!

They chopped down half of the tree, and four or five people rushed out of Youhu House, shouting loudly: "Stop, what are you doing!"

He Lingchuan glanced over and saw that the leader was He Yang.

Qingyang usually likes to sit under this ginkgo tree, have tea and watch the scenery. If the ginkgo is dug up, the palace master will definitely be angry!

Besides, there is only one bridge going up and down the island. If the ginkgo falls, it will block Qingyang's carriage from entering and exiting.

He Yang didn't want to take care of it at first, but these people were getting more and more outrageous and had no lower limit, so he had to come.
