Chapter 185
Speaking of this, Yan Ranling smiled wryly: "The palace has been repaired, but the matter is not over yet. The uncle sent someone to tell us again, saying, 'Goddess Palace should recruit more disciples and strengthen their strength so that they can stand firm in the Great Zhou Wulin in the future. Heels'...To be honest, neither the senior sister nor I would like to recruit more disciples, but such a big palace is too spacious for three or four people to live in. It is full of weeds, and it is very bad to be full of fallen leaves in winter.

What's more, since my master started to raise the fourth sister, we sisters like to raise birds, and we raised a lot of birds in the palace, but we got bird droppings everywhere, and it was very difficult to clean... So in the end we decided to Hired some servant girls to help with the cooking of the palace, but before the work started, the uncle who learned about this sent a group of little girls, saying that they were bought from some people on the northern border, and specially trained by the maids. After working with them for more than half a year, I have learned various skills, and I am fully capable of taking care of the Goddess Palace...

Uncle Master had expected that such a situation would happen after the repair of the Goddess Palace, so he had prepared in advance, and all the girls in the batch were good-looking, meeting the basic requirements for entering the Goddess Palace, so it can be seen that she had put a lot of thought into it. And how dare we oppose her decision, we accepted them in the end, we didn’t teach them martial arts at first, we just acted as servants, this is everyone’s silent protest against the uncle’s unauthorized claim..."

Yan Ranling sighed, and said: "However, not long after, my uncle sent someone to issue a strict order, 'these children must be taught martial arts'. We have been taken care of by my uncle since childhood. It is not that the master is better than the master, so how dare we violate her order. Besides Everyone is used to the service of these children, and realize that although they are capable, there are some things they cannot do, such as expelling those martial arts people who go up the mountain without invitation, but because they don't know martial arts, they become a burden to the Goddess Palace , but Elder Sister Gu was afraid of trouble, so she only accepted them as registered disciples. Although they are registered disciples, except for a few town sects, they have also taught everything that should be taught. In this way, the Goddess Palace is much more harmonious than before... "

Yan Ranling looked back at Xue Chang who was listening carefully, and said meaningfully: "Master Xue, the reason why I told you the secrets of the Goddess Palace is to tell you, seriously, to control the Goddess Palace. In fact, it's not my senior sister Gu, but my uncle who is already the empress dowager! Even though she is thousands of miles away in Luoyang, she knows everything here..."

Xue Chang was thoughtful.

The two walked for a while in silence. At the end of the path was a flat white square. In the middle of the square stood a statue: a beautiful woman, wearing a Taoist robe, with her hand on the scabbard, her head held high, her eyes straight ahead, her expression flying.

"This is Long Xuanshuang, the patriarch of my Goddess Palace School!" Yan Ranling stood in front of the statue, folded her hands solemnly, and bowed respectfully.

Xue Chang did as the Romans did when he went to the countryside, so he naturally respectfully followed suit.

Then Yan Ranling led Xue Chang to a palace on the other side of the square.

This time, when Xue Chang wanted to step into the palace gate, he was stopped by girls in white clothes guarding both sides.

"I, Senior Sister Gu, really think of myself as someone important!" Yan Ranling suddenly became angry, and asked Xue Chang to wait outside the hall, before entering the hall first.

"Gu Shijing, I'm back!" Yan Ranling walked inside while calling the Goddess Palace Mistress's name loudly.

At the end of the main hall was a gorgeous couch, on which lay a woman reclined, wearing a gorgeous purple palace attire, her complexion was as crystal clear as jade, like a crescent moon haloing, or like flowers and trees piled up with snow, surrounded by The appearance is gorgeous, the appearance is quiet, the body is leisurely, the tenderness is graceful, the delicacy is tactful, it is beautiful but not easy.

The woman was Gu Shijing, she heard Yan Ranling's voice, she didn't move, she just snorted coldly: "Junior Sister Yan, you violated the school rules and brought someone back without authorization, are you here to plead guilty to me now? "

"I didn't bring anyone without permission. They came here for you. It was an agreement you made with them. You forgot. I am helping you, so that in the future, people in the world will not say that Master Gu of the Goddess Palace You talk like fart, you don't keep your promises at all!"

"You—" Gu Shijing stood up in anger, looking at the confident Yan Ranling, she managed to suppress the anger in her heart, and said in a deep voice: "At least you should notify me in advance!"

"Didn't I ask Simei to bring you news?" Yan Ranling looked innocent.

Gu Shijing suddenly said angrily: "Is that what you call advance notice?! You brought everyone here before you told me, how do you tell me to prepare?! If you let him know about Wanyao and Lanmeng—"

"We have nothing to do about Lanmeng, he will always know. However, if he can't complete the agreement with you, then even if he knows, it doesn't matter. Anyway, this marriage has nothing to do with him. I said Gu Shijing, why don't you Could it be that you are worried that you will lose to him?"

When Gu Shijing heard this, she was so angry that she almost jumped up: "What are you talking about! Yan Ranling, are you here to anger me today?! Let me tell you, don't play too much, or—"

"Otherwise, what? Remove my goddess temple host? That's great, I don't want to do it for a long time! At that time, I will have nothing to do and go out to travel."

"you dare?!"

"Why don't I dare!"

"Master! Uncle! Stop arguing, both of you! Don't you think it's embarrassing for you to be so loud that the guests outside can hear you!" A young woman next to her hurried forward to dissuade her loudly, while another young woman in the hall also spoke loudly. He persuaded him aloud: "Master, uncle, you two, stop arguing!"

Gu Shijing angrily said to her two apprentices: "You two are not allowed to call her Shishu from now on, she is not worthy!"

"Hehe, I'm not worthy?" Yan Ranling sneered twice: "I don't think you are worthy to be the owner of this Goddess Palace! You dare not meet this Xue Chang, dare not fulfill the agreement with him, because you know you can't beat him He, you can't beat this young man who is more than 20 years younger than you!"

"What are you talking about!" Gu Shijing was so angry that she pointed to her big apprentice and said, "Ling Yun, go outside the hall and call that Xue in, I want you, the uncle whose eyes were eaten by dogs, to take a good look at it!" Look, how easily I defeated him!"

Yan Ranling folded her hands on her chest, with a sneer on her face, but she stopped talking, looking like she was waiting for a good show.

Tang Lingyun walked out of the palace gate, saw Xue Chang who was waiting leisurely outside the palace, looked him over carefully, and then saluted and said, "Excuse me, is Xue Chang the head of Xiaoyao Sect?"

Xue Chang saw that the speaker was a calm, handsome, fair-skinned and beautiful young woman, so he quickly returned the courtesy and said, "I'm right here, may I ask who is the girl?"

"Family teacher Gu Shijing invited Master Xue to come in and see." Tang Lingyun replied.

"Thank you!" Xue Chang was about to follow Tang Lingyun into the store, but the other party's voice sounded in his ear: "The master is on fire, I hope that the master Xue will try to be as patient as possible to avoid unnecessary fights."

Xue Chang was taken aback, looking at Tang Lingyun who had a serious face but his lips were moving slightly, and immediately replied through sound transmission: "Thank you for your reminder, girl! But this time I am here to fulfill the agreement with your master in the martial arts competition." , fighting is inevitable, but I will treat each other with courtesy."

When Tang Lingyun heard this, he felt a little annoyed: why is the man that Junior Sister Luo is looking for so ignorant!
She lowered her face and walked straight back into the hall.

Xue Chang followed closely behind. He had no intention of appreciating the white and clean hall, and eagerly searched for the shadow of the dreamy figure. However, there was no figure of Luo Lanmeng in the hall, and he could not even see Luo Lanmeng's master Zhou Wanyao and Lu Ling. Among the two figures he was familiar with, Yun, only a beautiful woman was sitting in front of her with a serious expression, and beside her was a delicate young woman, who looked at Xue Chang curiously, but when Xue Chang's When her eyes turned to her, she immediately lowered her head shyly.

On the side, Yan Ranling, who had just brought him into the palace, was lazily lying on the wooden chair, watching Xue Chang, with some expectation in her eyes.

Xue Chang looked left and right, a little confused, and didn't speak for a while.

"Don't look any further, I'm Gu Shijing." The woman in front said impatiently.

Although Xue Chang had guessed, he was also very surprised: Even if this Palace Mistress Gu changed her face last time, she must be at least 40 years old. How could her real face be so young and beautiful!

Xue Chang calmed down, bowed his hands to Gu Shijing and saluted, and said loudly: "Xiao-yao-pai-zhang-men Xue Chang pays homage to Palace Master Gu!"

Gu Shijing twitched a few times, sat still, and did not return the courtesy, but said softly: "Excuse me, Master Xue."

Xue Chang didn't care, but immediately asked: "I want to ask Palace Master Gu, why isn't Lanmeng here?"

Gu Shijing looked displeased, and said: "Xue Chang, I remember that I made an agreement with you in Daying Rongzhou. Unless you fulfill the agreement, you and Lanmeng will not be able to communicate anymore. Have you completed it now? "

Xue Chang raised his head and replied: "For more than half a year, I have passed the assessment of the martial arts inspector and founded the Xiaoyao faction. Although at the end of last year, the imperial court has issued a new edict of martial arts, any martial arts person can create a sect, but as a The Xiaoyao School, which was founded last summer, enjoys some of the same privileges as the Goddess Palace. I own a large house in Chengdu, equipped with an inland dock, and the imperial court also gave me more than 40 acres of fertile land along the river for the Xiaoyao School. As a branch, all the harvest on this land belongs to the sect.

In addition, my Xiaoyao faction also owns two prosperous restaurants in Chengdu, with a monthly profit of more than 100 taels... Today, the Xiaoyao faction has nine disciples, and has more than a hundred servants and long-term workers. The assets he owns far exceed 1 taels of silver, which has reached the agreed conditions with Gu Gongzhu!If Palace Master Gu doesn't believe what I said, you can send someone to check the Xiaoyao faction in Chengdu Mansion. It should be easy to confirm. Although my Xiaoyao faction has just been established, I still have some reputation in Chengdu Mansion. "
