Chapter 259 Invitation from Gyeonggi Province

In the eyes of others, the ability to grow winter wheat in sandy land is definitely something that defies common sense.

This means that Jinxia City, which originally belonged to an area lacking cultivated land, has a large area of ​​land that can be developed in an instant. After all, the long coastline to the east is a flat and open no-man's land, and there is also a river that flows into the sea to provide irrigation resources, which solves land restrictions. Afterwards, agricultural take-off is already possible.

In this matter, the high priests Senia and Airi played a big role.

If you want the phylloxera to quickly take root on the coast, you have to have elves infusing it with magic power all the time, but the cultivators are basically Jinxia people. This kind of cooperation is an unfamiliar challenge for both parties. As for the tree boat, Senia mobilized a group of spirits with positive natures to take the lead to settle in the experimental field, while Ai Li relied on her cheerful and lively personality to make people let go of their guards a little bit.

It is the joint efforts of both parties that formed this ground-breaking seedling.

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

...

"Invite me to Gyeonggi Province?"

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

"Exactly." The visitor patted the corner of his robe—it was a little muddy. Obviously, in order to deliver the news as soon as possible, the man who claimed to be Xinwu walked in a hurry along the way. "Your recent performance has amazed the higher-ups. 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 his contacts with the Privy Council came from the merit report submitted by the princess for him. Apart from that, he never had any contact with Gyeonggi.

How did these people notice him?

"Will all the governors go?"

"How is that possible." Xin Wu smiled, "Those who can participate in this grand ceremony are all figures who can be ranked high in the Privy Council in the future. If the Prime Minister has irreplaceable abilities, he will not be sent to other places to manage the affairs of a state." In fact, there are so many palaces, and you are the only one who received the invitation."

"That's really... thanks to you."

While responding, Xia Fan was thinking about the meaning of the Privy Council's words. The person in charge of Fucheng is at least the fourth-rank Baijian, and according to Zhang Wendao, the fifth-rank test is already an extremely difficult threshold to cross. But according to Xinwu's meaning, these fourth-rank and fifth-rank can't even enter the eyes of high-level officials.

What did he do to make Gyeonggi react like this? And what is that grand ceremony... It can't be the enthronement ceremony of Prince Ning Weiyuan, right?

Thinking about it carefully, after all, only a few people know about the princess's treasonous intentions, and it is absolutely impossible for the Privy Council to come here for this matter. As for the rumor that he was the listener spread to Gyeonggi, it was even more negligible. Could it be that the reason for the other party's invitation is really the same as what the envoy said, because they have seen their own talents?

pong!

The door of the headquarters lobby was suddenly pushed open, and a familiar figure broke in.

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

It was Guangping Princess Ning Wanjun who hurried into the lobby, and her voice was a little hurried.

"Your Highness?" Xia Fan stood up unexpectedly.

Xin Wu also quickly bowed and saluted, "I am Xin Wu, the special envoy of the Privy Council, and I have met Her Royal Highness the Princess!"

"What's your purpose here?" Ning Wanjun stared at the other party, with suspicion almost written on his face.

"That's right, the Privy Council wants to invite Prime Minister Xia to go to Gyeonggi to participate in the upcoming internal ceremony—"

"No, he won't go to Shangyuan City!" the princess interrupted without hesitation.

Xin Wu was stunned for a moment, "Your Highness, why not?"

"This—" Ning Wanjun also reacted, her own attitude was a little too abrupt, "There are many affairs in Jinxia City, in case the Prime Minister is not here, who will handle it?"

"But Jinxia hasn't had a prime minister in charge for a long time, and I haven't seen evil spirits wreaking havoc in the city. With all due respect, Your Highness, you shouldn't let a Bai Ren be responsible for dealing with evil spirits, right?"

"It turns out that the Gyeonggi Prefecture also knows that Xia Fan is only named Bairen." Ning Wanjun immediately changed his words, "There is no need for a fourth-rank alchemist to attend the enthronement ceremony of His Royal Highness, right? Besides, this matter should not be handled by the Ministry of Rites Why? Why did you come to run errands?"

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

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

"No, you are the third princess after all, so it's normal to have the ability to inquire about changes in the palace." Xin Wu immediately lowered his head, "You are right, the Ministry of Rites should indeed be responsible for the enthronement ceremony of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, but what should he do specifically? If you want to invite anyone to participate, it has nothing to do with the Privy Council. The grand ceremony that the above hoped that Lord Xia can participate is purely an internal matter of the Privy Council, and... I don’t think he is only a fourth-rank hundred-blade after he has been to Gyeonggi. .”

"What's the meaning?"

Xin Wu cupped his hands, "As far as I know, those who can receive this invitation are all core members of the Privy Council. Sending invitations to places other than Shangyuan is itself an extremely rare thing. The last alchemist who received this honor , it was more than twenty years ago—but now, he is already a feather."

Hagoromo...

Ning Wanjun and Xia Fan couldn't help but looked at each other, that was the highest official title in the Privy Council. An alchemist who can be promoted to the first rank must not only have extraordinary abilities, but also have made great contributions to the Privy Council. The nature and significance of this grand ceremony, is it so important?

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

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

"For an alchemist, there is no better prospect than this. Not only can the materials for performing spells be taken at will, but it is also easier to get guidance and communication from other high-level alchemists. There are also various types of spell knowledge other than Daqi , the many studies recorded by the Privy Council will be open to you.” Speaking of this, Xin Wu’s tone was full of envy, “Besides, this is just a benefit from before. The resources obtained will be unimaginable!"

Xia Fan's heart skipped a beat.

Is it a secret record...

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

He did not forget the agreement with Li.

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

"I can't answer your question—how do you call it a decision from above? As for its specific content, in fact, only the real participants know." Xin Wu said with a little regret, "I am only responsible for delivering the news, far from The inside information can only be grasped by the qualifications to contact the core members."

"How many days will this matter take? 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 rules over the other. The green sword, feather clothes, blood, identity... These are all things that are just for outsiders to see." Xin Wu showed a strange look Smile, as if laughing at these titles, if you have obtained their approval through the grand ceremony, you will naturally be ranked at the highest rank in the Privy Council. At that time, where you want to go, what you want to do, is your freedom. "

How could the Gyeonggi government implement such a loose system? "Then when everyone thinks differently, wouldn't it be... slightly confusing?"

This is already the most euphemistic way Xia Fan can think of.

"That's not something I can figure out, but..." Xin Wu paused, "Those adults seem to be working hard for the same goal, at most they are just different in methods. If you can join in, I think you will also be infected by their aspirations."
