Chapter 26 Enjoying Affectionate Moments Everyday; Seizing Linqiang City
In Langzhou City, the scorching heat of summer suddenly passed, and a cool breeze gradually emerged in the air.
Autumn was approaching.
These days, Gu Lan was genuinely studying diligently and hadn't gone anywhere.
It wasn't that he didn't want to, but he didn't have the time. Since the news of the great victory at Jade Gate Pass spread throughout the city, the people were overjoyed. However, Gu Lan noticed that his wife seemed even happier than the average person! Moreover, the frequency of her requests seemed to be increasing...
The noble and graceful female Emperor, who was exceptionally beautiful, was shameless when alone with Gu Lan... Of course, these matters were known to no one else.
Every day, Gu Lan engages in affectionate moments with his wife. Despite his high level of cultivation, engaging in "battles" day and night inevitably leads to some soreness in the waist and legs.
Gu Lan silently practiced the insight technique given by the old Daoist to a certain level, and now he could calculate the fortune and destiny of practitioners below the Nature Realm of certain realms.
For example, Gu Lan casually glanced at Old Yang, who was chatting outside the door.
[Fortune: White]
[Destiny: Solitary and bitter in the first half of life, warm and affectionate in the second half, fortunate to encounter a good master, enjoying a contented retirement.]
[Summary: Ordinary]
Then, he looked at himself.
[Fortune: Green]
[Destiny: A mediocre life, with unexpected good fortune at present; cultivation and future prospects are still unknown.]
[Summary: Against the odds]
After becoming proficient, Gu Lan was extremely excited.
It wasn't because the system had helped change his destiny. With this profound insight technique, he could use it when meeting people outside to check their destiny first before deciding whether to approach or not.
Invisibly, he could avoid conflicts with people marked as "Destiny Boy" or "Destiny Girl"! It was truly a divine skill for seeking advantages and avoiding disadvantages!
"Well... I should prioritize refining the insights of this and bring it to perfection!"
Gu Lan thought to himself, attaching great importance to this exceptional skill.
His current cultivation level had reached eighty thousand years, but he was still stuck at the Saint realm.
To make a breakthrough and reach the realm not mentioned in this castrated text, he had to rely on the innate fortune brought about by this decisive destiny!
...
[You've studied the Four Books and Five Classics for three days, gaining 100 years of cultivation. insights of "Qi-Insight Technique" +80.]
[You've written books Compendium of Materia Medica and Treatise On Febrile And Miscellaneous Diseases, gaining 666 in medical insights.]
[You've narrated the book Golden Lotus at night, gaining one Immortal Body Spiritual Roots and 7 instances of intimacy with your wife.]
[...]
The previous female Emperor cared most about the court, but now she is thinking more from the perspective of the Gu family... Is this a good thing?
Liu Yexi was conflicted.
At this moment, Mu Yuyan took out a neatly stacked pile of drawings from her sleeve, drawn specifically by Gu Lan for her, naturally always kept close.
"These are all Master Gu's ideas. Go make a copy and hand it over to the Ministry of Works, let them work day and night, and then transport it to Linjiang City," Mu Yuyan instructed. "As for Master Gu, I will go and discuss the business in Linjiang City with him."
Having finished her instructions, Mu Yuyan saw that the porridge was almost ready, lifted the lid, and sprinkled a handful of Chinese wolfberries into it.
Your Majesty, are you trying to nourish the young master's body? I'm too embarrassed to point it out... Liu Yexi pretended not to notice and continued to study the drawings.
However, when she glanced at them.
Her almond eyes widened immediately!
"Waterwheel... a tool that can save people from labor and automatically irrigate the fields?!"
"How is that possible..."
"Raising three kinds of creatures together, and they can be harvested together, with profits several times higher than before?"
"This... Your Majesty, I have been to the Ministry of Works recently, how come I have never heard of these..."
After staring for a full minute, these inventions have far exceeded her knowledge. So, Liu Yexi was half doubtful and half believing!
However.
She felt that even if she gave these drawings to those craftsmen in the Ministry of Works who claimed to have superb skills, their pupils would be shattered!
Witnessing these unprecedented creations of wisdom!
Gu Lan's explanations on the drawings were extremely detailed, making it look very reliable. It just made the viewer feel a kind of embarrassment, thinking, 'I am so ignorant!'
"Go copy them, you'll understand more by looking at them." Mu Yuyan said gently.
Seeing the confused look of the maid, she secretly laughed in her heart, feeling a kind of pity that they share the same fate.
Back then, did she not appear just as ignorant and unworldly as Yexi?
Surprisingly, the Master didn't show any disdain...
"The talents of the Master are truly beyond my comprehension. I'll go make copies!" Liu Yexi marveled, completely giving up.
"The porridge is ready. I'll go and give it to Master Gu first."
Mu Yuyan's face was rosy, she straightened her hair, tasted the warmth of the porridge, nodded in satisfaction, and then picked up the bowl to walk out of the kitchen with graceful steps.
"Yexi, remember to finish this task quickly. Don't let Master Gu be distracted during the Autumn Examination."
"Don't forget, during those days of the Autumn Examination, we also need to visit Tianji Mountain."
"..."
