The government was sending out wives, and I ended up with a princess from the previous dynasty!

At this moment, Nie Xiaoxian looked at Jia Daoshi with fear in her eyes.

Even her own advisor has abandoned her; she can only accept her fate now.

"My lord, why not hand her over to me? I guarantee I can make her obedient," Yi Qianxiao said with a smile, her eyes darting around.

"Alright, then I'll leave it to you." Jia Daoshi was also having a headache, but upon hearing Yi Qianxiao's words, he immediately nodded in agreement.

Yi Qianxiao is a seasoned veteran; he certainly has the skills to manipulate people.

As for whether this little girl would cause trouble in the manor, Jia Daoshi wasn't worried at all.

“Xiao Xian, I believe you will soon change your opinion of him.” Yi Qianxiao stepped forward and touched Nie Xiaoxian’s face. “She’s really pretty. Yin Xin, take Xiaoxian downstairs and arrange a room for her.”

"Yes! Miss!"

Yin Xin left with Nie Xiaoxian.

Now, only Jia Daoshi and the women remained in the living room.

"Ah Jiu, what are these drawings in this golden book? It doesn't look like a map."

Seeing that there were no outsiders around, Jia Daoshi took out the golden book he had just acquired and looked at Murong Jiu.

Murong Jiu reached out and carefully took the golden book from Jia Daoshi's hand, saying solemnly, "The charts on this are marked using a special method and need to be translated using the unique secret language of our Murong family."

"A nautical chart? Could it be that the Temple of Martial God is at sea?" Shen Li asked in surprise.

The Martial God Temple in Daqing has always been a legend. Not only Shen Li didn't know about it, but even Yi Qianxiao only knew the name.

Weng Changting, however, had a look of reminiscence in his eyes: "I know a little about this. Back then, my ancestors participated in the construction of the Temple of Martial God. It seems to have been on the vast sea, but later, none of them came back."

This was the first time Jia Daoshi had heard of this, and he immediately asked with curiosity, "Tell me about it?"

Weng Changting nodded: "This is considered a secret within our sect. It is said that back then..."

……

Just as Jia Daoshi's family was studying the Golden Book and the Sea Chart, the atmosphere in the Great Jing Dynasty court also became tense.

After Wu Qingye returned to Yilan County, he met up with Ji Bingyan, and the group set off overnight for Mantuo Villa.

At this moment, Empress Ji Wuxin of the Great Jing Dynasty was at Mantuo Manor!

After Ji Bingyan and Wu Qingye arrived at Mantuo Manor, Ji Bingyan sent all the palace maids and eunuchs outside!

No one knows what the three of them said inside. It wasn't until the rooster crowed three times that Ji Bingyan and Wu Qingye left Mantuo Manor!

Next came a series of imperial edicts from Her Majesty the Empress!

First, he ordered the various armies in the southwest to seize the time to quell the rebellion of the Green Turban Army.

Then, an imperial decree was issued to the Imperial City Guard, ordering them to assist Jia Daoshi in assembling a fleet to sail to the sea frontier and search for the legendary Great Qing Martial God Temple!

There are no restrictions on the crew members. They can be minor officials of the imperial court, wandering knights of the martial arts world, or even a failed scholar. As long as you meet the physical requirements, you can become a member of the crew!

Whoever can be the first to step into the Temple of the God of War!

He shall be granted a title of nobility!

He was granted the title of Marquis, a hereditary title!

This was undoubtedly a huge temptation for those in the court!

At the same time, it also drives those who come from humble backgrounds and are single-mindedly focused on climbing the social ladder crazy!

A single imperial edict stirred up a huge storm in the martial arts world!

Disciples from all the major sects in the martial arts world, as well as wandering knights, all rushed towards the Imperial City Guard.

Sign up!

These江湖人士 (jianghu figures) usually look down on the imperial court, believing that the people in the Imperial City Guard are nothing more than the court's lackeys!

But now, they're all red-eyed with rage, vying to become his henchmen!

It seems that no matter where you are, you can't escape the "it smells so good" phenomenon!

Even some martial arts masters who had retired from the trade were excited upon hearing the news.

For example, Jiao Xie, the leader of the Baihua Gang in Yilan City!

Grandpa Jiao's retirement life has only just begun, and he hasn't had enough time to enjoy it yet!

He knew the value of life, and the Martial God Temple held the secret of immortality. How could he not be tempted?

At the same time, Ji Wuxin summoned his ministers to the court again and formulated a series of plans to appease the people.

This series of actions has stabilized the crumbling Great Jing Dynasty!

……

"Sir, given the current situation, what should we do?"

In a stone chamber hidden deep underground, two people dressed in black cloaks, their faces covered, sat facing each other.

One of the figures appeared relatively tall and slender.

The figure sitting opposite him was much taller and stronger.

After a moment of silence, another voice rang out: "The time wasn't right yet, but if we don't take action now, the plan will be completely disrupted."

"Since the Temple of Martial Gods has emerged ahead of schedule, let's start the plan ahead of time!"

Upon hearing this, the tall, slender figure chuckled softly: "That's exactly what I was thinking. In that case, I hope your men will cooperate fully!"

"Okay."

After a brief conversation, the two nodded to each other and then got up and left the stone chamber.

Whether in the imperial court or in the martial arts world, a great storm seems to be brewing.

However, Jiajiazhuang was very quiet.

Jia Daoshi was not at all surprised by the Great Jing Dynasty's plan to build a fleet.

Those who can manipulate events at sea certainly know more about the Martial God Temple than he does.

However, Jia Daoshi did not expect that there was such a legendary story about Emperor Qing Tai in his youth.

A fairy from the sea?

This is truly legendary!

Murong Jiu was also very helpful in deciphering the Golden Book.

In Murong Jiu's words, members of the Murong family receive this kind of training from a young age; it is a secret language unique to the Murong family!

"My lord! It's done!"

Murong Jiuzhai completed a nautical chart on a piece of paper using a pencil made by Jia Daoshi.

Jia Daoshi stepped forward, smiled and nodded, saying, "Ajiu, you've worked hard. Tonight, I must reward you properly!"

Upon hearing this, Murong Jiu's face turned bright red, but soon she seemed to remember something, and her expression became serious again: "My lord, I've remembered something."

"Back then, my father organized many martial arts masters to search the sea area near the Temple of Martial God."

"Because we didn't know the exact location of the Temple of Martial God, we could only determine the general sea area based on the information that had been passed down from back then. Now it seems that Father Emperor's judgment at that time was not wrong!"

"But that area of ​​the sea is too strange and too dangerous. Everyone who went there died!"

At this point, Murong Jiu's face turned a little pale.

Jia Daoshi stepped forward and gently embraced Murong Jiu, comforting her, "Don't worry, we have accurate nautical charts this time, so there shouldn't be any major problems."

"If anything goes wrong, I will immediately turn back. I will never risk my life!"

"Yes! My lord, you must keep your word!"
