The sky broke open and before the moon shone, Lan Changqing was standing at the top of Cuilan Peak, looking at the sky with anticipation.

The Lan family, a small and medium-sized family in Yuzhou City, had ancestors who went to the army to fight with underground evil demons and formed a title of eighth-grade uncle.

The third duke, the sixth majesty, and the ninth rank. In the title system of the Great Jin Divine Kingdom, the eighth rank is considered the most basic title, but after all, it is also a title.

With the title of the eighth-rank prince, the Lan family maintained a very considerable situation in Yuzhou City. Just southeast of Yuzhou City, a land of 12,000 miles southeast, the Lan family has a fiefdom of thousands of miles, tens of millions of people, various mines and hundreds of medicinal fields. What's even better is that there is a small spiritual cave blessed land at the core of the Lan family's fief.

Relying on the foundation that our ancestors have earned hard, generations of the Lan family have been cautious and cautious. Generations of the clan members have worked diligently to manage the family business, make good friends with wealthy families in various places, and restrain their descendants. The Lan family's family business is booming, but it is worthy of its ancestors.

Especially after Lan Changqing took over the position of the steward of the housekeeper three hundred years ago, he used the method of "hiding needles in the cotton" to achieve several successful marriage operations, which allowed the influence of the Lan family and the tentacles of the Lan family to cover one-tenth of the territory of Yuzhou.

Lan Changqing even selected dozens of elite tribe members, took half of the family's private army to join the Shenwei Army, and went to the border deserts to expand territory for the Great Jin Shen Kingdom and accumulate military achievements. Lan Changqing was quite ambitious, but he had no ambitions. His goal was to make the Lan family slightly upgrade from the eighth-grade uncle to a slight increase of two or three ranks.

The fifth-grade or fourth-grade master's territory can be doubled by about double, which is enough to accommodate more and more clan members of the family. The resources provided are enough to supply more and more clan monks.

Very small, but very definite goal.

Therefore, Lan Changqing was very cautious and cautious, and never mixed with the so-called major events of the state.

He even learned from a broken book that "only villains and women are hard to raise" the famous saint saying, so he never mixed things related to Princess Jingsheng before. He did do this.

Therefore, when the new Yuzhou Duke "Huo Xiong" arrived with his army, he was the first to send a messenger to send a letter of submission.

Therefore, when the wealthy families in Yuzhou rose up and caused chaos, he restrained his clan members and did not get involved in the chaos.

Perhaps because of the letter of submission, the Yuzhou Gong ordered the wealthy families in Yuzhou to hand over the private army and reorganize them into the Dongyuan Imperial Army, but he did not touch a hair from the Lan family. The Lan family's wife had ordinary experience of the storm of that period of Yuzhou.

The things that happened next made the Lan family, who were originally a little dissatisfied with Lan Changqing's conservatism and caution, completely convinced him.

Unexpectedly, I really didn't expect that the Yuzhou Duke was so cruel and ruthless that he actually killed the remaining legion under the First Army, loyal to the previous dynasty, killed countless generals and sectors, and even his own 12 guards under his command.

Terrible, terrible, terrible.

The former Duke of Yuzhou and the current "King An" were really a terrifying and dangerous person.

However, when King An brought his men back to Yuzhou, Lan Changqing was the first to ask all the elders of the family to come forward in person and sent the letter of loyalty in fear and fear.

"The subsequent changes in the storm are unknown, but at least... King An has the Black Sky Cauldron in his hands and controls thirty-six four-spirit warships. Such combat power, even His Majesty now has to give him some mercy."

Standing on the top of Cuilan Peak, Lan Changqing commented on the current situation facing Wu Tie with the prudence and care that the heads of the Lan family have used to be cautious and careful.

"To put it in small ways, as long as King An is not bold and arbitrarily enfeoffed his country, he will be armed and posed as if his military power is too strong, which will threaten the current situation of the imperial capital Qingqiu City, and Your Majesty will make King An safe and stable."

"Let's talk about it..." Lan Changqing looked at the young and middle-aged men of the tribe standing behind him, and said with a smile: "Now the Grand Master Gongyang Sanwu is not dead, and the position of King An is as stable as Mount Tai. And what kind of person is the Grand Master today? It is difficult, extremely difficult, and very difficult to make something happen to him... Unless Your Majesty wants to sack his martial arts, then the Grand Master will never have any trouble."

"King An, who is more suitable for the power of the Taishi Master, who holds the Black Sky Cauldron and the Four Spirits Battleship in the world than him?"

"A King An, after all, betrayed the first army and betrayed the loyal ministers of the previous dynasty and appeared in front of the world. He could not form a clique in the court, nor could he have too many feudal vassals."

"A prince who has bad reputation but has mastered extremely strong strength, is cruel, ruthless, treacherous and shameless... Haha, as long as His Majesty makes a little provocation, he will become hostile to the Grand Master, and they will be as powerful as water and fire. Grand Master, I'm afraid there will be trouble."

"Such means... tsk..." Lan Changqing pondered for a while, he nodded and smiled: "Your Majesty still gave you a little lighter... If you want to fight with the Grand Master, King An at least must become the Lord of the Palace. The Deputy Lord of the Demon Suppressing Palace is not enough."

Several young people from the Lan family listened carefully to Lan Changqing's comments.

"But that's right. After all, he was a former minister who had just joined the army. A title of King An was enough to be prominent." Lan Changqing smiled and said, "Especially, King An's strength is greatly weakened now. He first stabilized his own country and then accumulated enough strength before he was qualified to become the master of a palace."

Holding hands with each other and gently tapping the back of his fingers, Lan Changqing thought: "To say something ruthless, if I am Your Majesty... Well, my Qingqiu Divine Kingdom inherited the power of the previous dynasty, the divine power, the magical martial arts, the demon-suppressing, and the devil-sweeping. The responsibilities of these four halls have been formed, and it is not appropriate to let King An go to any hall."

"The Qingqiu Divine Kingdom is now extremely troubled. If two new halls are established, one hall will be responsible for suppressing prefectures and counties in the territory, and the other hall will be responsible for fighting foreign enemies... This may become a permanent institution of the Qingqiu Divine Kingdom in the future. It is better than the invasion of the Great Wu Divine Kingdom and the rush to set up a temporary military destruction army."

Several young men from the Lan family nodded thoughtfully.

A young man complimented: "Uncle, with your eyes and the elders of the clan, and their skills, if you enter the court and become an official, you should be a good minister."

Lan Changqing waved his hand and smiled faintly: "Become an official in the court? Forget it, my little body in Lan's family, who is a small local snake in Yuzhou, will naturally live a free and comfortable life... On weekdays, you can also enjoy yourself by thinking about some things that you don't have."

"As an official in the court, look at the first family, and think about Zhao Xiu, who died in the southwest of Zhao family... What a great man, how miserable he died."

"The Lan family is too small to withstand the storm. Just like this, it's enough."

Lan Changqing smiled and sighed with satisfaction.

Not greedy, that's great.

He smiled softly and said, "Picking chrysanthemums under the eastern fence, leisurely seeing the southern mountains... You have been thinking about these sentences for a long time. Alas, it is hard to imagine what the ancient sages looked like when they wrote such exquisite but philosophical poems?"

Shaking his head, Lan Changqing said leisurely: "Sometimes, contentment is a blessing... Look at our neighbors, how many have fallen down in the past few years? How many families have been exiled? Their land, their forests, their mines, their yards and houses have become ours now? Do we spend some effort? No..."

Turning around, Lan Changqing stretched out her hand and slapped the forehead of the young man who was just talking.

"Also, the family was ordered by the Yuzhou Duke to search the house and exiled to the Xia family, where they served in front of the Dazezhou military. Haven't they all bought the girls of their family for a lot of money?"

"Oh!" Lan Changqing sighed heavily: "At that time, I came forward personally to ask you to ask a few girls from the Xia family for you. What's the result? People don't like our little eighth-grade uncle... Isn't that true? The Xia family is a fifth-grade uncle... staring at Gao Zhier in their eyes."

"But what's the result? I didn't want to be my eldest wife of the Lan family at the time, and I sneered at you that you were a toad... Now, I have become a maid who doesn't even have a title at all. I can't even be a concubine, and I thank you very much..."

"So, picking chrysanthemums under the eastern fence... As long as you are not greedy, the more and more chrysanthemums you can pick will be more and more..."

"Looking at Nanshan... Nanshan is good, but we just need to look from a distance. A little further away, you can see Nanshan, but don't get close to it, so as to avoid the collapse of the mountain and suppress you."

"Now in Yuzhou and the surrounding Jiuzhou, King An is the Nanshan Mountain. We just need to look up, look from afar, look respectfully, and say a few words to praise the majestic and heroic posture of Nanshan from time to time."

Lan Changqing smiled and looked at the eighteen layers floating on the top of Cuilan Peak. Each layer had eight corners, densely covered with strands of extremely thin patterns, and faintly emitting powerful fluctuations.

Unlike other families, the Lan family is just a small and medium-sized family.

The other wealthy families and the elders in their clan, if they have enough cultivation, will extract their own insights and condense a magic weapon of the Dao of Heaven. The magic weapon of Heaven that they have personally forged is undoubtedly the most capable weapon of their own.

When a cultivator in the Fetal Enlightenment Realm exhausts his lifespan or cannot stop the heavenly tribulation and eventually dies, the heavenly magic weapon can be passed down from generation to generation. Relying on the nourishment of the same bloodline, the heavenly magic weapon will become more and more powerful and become the foundation of the clan.

The Lan family has different thinking from these big families.

Why do we have to let generations of masters sacrifice and forge a magic weapon of heaven?

Is it meaningful? Those scattered divine weapons of heaven can only enhance the individual combat effectiveness of masters in the clan.

However, the Lan family has never been brave and fierce, and never easily conflicts with others.

Instead of consuming huge resources, manpower and energy to forge a series of divine weapons in the Heavenly Dao, it is better to concentrate the power of generations of clan members to forge a heavy weapon that is far more powerful than ordinary divine weapons in the Heavenly Dao, which is called a "tribe-suppressing artifact".

Starting from the ancestor who was granted the title of the Eighth-Level Duke, each generation of the Lan family had only three or five cultivators from the Fetal-Cang Realm, who forged a divine weapon in the Heavenly Dao and spread it to the descendants. In addition to these three or five carefully selected tribe members, other masters from the Fetal-Cang Realm, all their energy and spirit and cultivation were used to sacrifice and refine this eighteen-layer glazed pagoda.

The power of the Lan family and the whole family gathered here.

The Lan family has also tried it. This glazed pagoda has condensed the essence, blood and cultivation of countless tribes and countless elders. Its current power is no longer inferior to that of ordinary innate spiritual treasures.

Over the past few years, this glass pagoda has undergone many refinement of the star essence.

This time, the gifts of the gods were instilled with the star power essence that was far more powerful than in previous years. Lan Changqing and a group of clans calculated that this glazed pagoda could really be directly transformed into a natural innate and directly upgraded to a real innate spiritual treasure. At that time, it might really have the power of a magic weapon to maintain the country.

By then, the foundation of the Lan family...haha.

Lan Changqing smiled and said, "Remember, the reason why other big families find it difficult to sacrifice and refine such treasures in the clan is because their minds are not as good as our Lan family."

"Their wealthy families are all full of energy and spirit, their magic power and soul are powerful, fierce and powerful... Even the clans of their various clans practice different skills and their attributes are very mixed."

"Where is our Lan family? Everyone is calm and all the people in the tribe love each other, and there is no distinction between the main house and the side branches?"

"And all of our Lan family's martial arts are "Sword and Danger and Piano Heart Record", which nourishes the literary heart, accumulates literary spirit, hides needles in the cotton, and is gentle and consistent... In this way, generations of ancestors can constantly bless this glazed pagoda and have the current atmosphere."

"So, you must remember that harmony in your family will prosper... My Lan family is not good at fighting and fighting, and the only word "harmony" is the foundation of my Lan family."

A group of young men from the Lan family nodded, smiling all over their faces, and their demeanor was as elegant and calm as Lanzhi.

Lan Changqing's words made them convinced.

They even understood that the general situation of King An and the Qingqiu Divine Kingdom today gave them great confidence and longing for the future of their family.

They turned their heads one after another, carefully used the secret technique, and looked at the city of Anyi more than ten thousand miles away.

In the past, Lanzhou City and now above Anyi City, there were thirty-six four-spirit warships so large that the military formation of the Five Elements Elf is even more terrifying. It is more than ten thousand miles apart, and it is still clearly visible when you see it with secret techniques.

"However, King An is the lord of Yuzhou now, and our Lan family cannot be without any expression." Lan Changqing said leisurely: "So, I will discuss with all the old families. In a few days, among you, among you, a dozen young people, go to Prince An's mansion to serve."

"It is enough for you to be a small official in the middle and lower class, and do some specific official documents and transactions."

"First of all, my Lan family seems to respect King An."

"Second, if my uncle's analysis just now is wrong, one day King An will be confiscated and exterminated, it will not involve you."

"Remember, remember, under King An, don't be too good, too smart and capable. Being a small official and a gangster is enough. The bigger the official, the greater the risk. This is a famous saying."

"But, King An is actually quite a good person." Lan Changqing said with a smile: "Uncle, I have carefully observed what King An has done along the way. Sometimes the methods are a little more cruel, but in fact, as long as he does not provoke him, he really cannot be considered a bad person."

"He may be a selfish person, but he is definitely not a bad person."

"Just pay attention to the degree of dealing with him, he can even be a cute and friend person."

Lan Changqing commented on Wu Tie here.

At this moment, the sky suddenly opened, the moonlight was shining and the stars were shining.

Lan Changqing waved her hand happily, and many masters of the Lan family worked together to lift the glazed pagoda to a high altitude.

At this moment, the sky suddenly turned black, and the Black Sky Cauldron spewed out black air and rushed to all directions. The Lan family was only more than 10,000 miles away from Anyi City. In the blink of an eye, the black clouds rolled past, blocking the sky strongly.
