Heavenly Dao Formula

Qi Country, Shangyuan City.

Although it is not the first time for Luo Qingqing to set foot here, every time he comes, he will have new feelings. Compared with the unchanging situation in Youzhou, Gyeonggi can be described as thriving and prosperous.

For example, when I came last time, the gate of the city was still a dirt road, but now it has been replaced with neat gray stone bricks, and it spreads far away, and the carriage walks on it smoothly and briskly.

Not only that, but there are also many peddlers and peddlers. In order to save the entry fee, they directly set up pavements on both sides of the stone road.

After entering the city, there were more people coming and going, and occasionally even a few foreigners with different hair colors and skins could be seen.

"...It turns out that Shangyuan is so prosperous." Luo Tang couldn't help leaning out the car window and looking around, his eyes full of novelty. Even she, who has always been steady, is like this, not to mention the younger junior sisters.

"You still have a lot of time to appreciate it in the future." Luo smiled lightly.

"Big sister, are we not going back to Youzhou anymore?" someone asked.

"Unless you're negligent, or have made a mistake."

"Uh...then I don't want it."

She raised the corners of her mouth, "Don't worry, alchemists don't even have a vacation. You always go back to see your family during the holidays, as long as you can complete your official duties on time."

In this round of the examination, the Luo family achieved extremely satisfactory results. Not only Qingshan Town was ranked in the top three, but there were also several outstanding performers in other examination rooms. When the appointment and dismissal order came down, it was discovered that there were fifteen people who went to Gyeonggi, which was the largest number ever.

Although Gyeonggi is also divided into local privy government and general government, commonly known as outer government and inner government, but it is always possible to come to Gyeonggi. For most new alchemists, this is equivalent to standing at the apex.

"I don't know how Luo You'er is doing." After looking at her for a while, Luo Tang put her head back into the car, "She is not ranked high, but the order of appointment and dismissal came so quickly, it is really a strange thing."

Luo Weiwei nodded with deep sympathy. Usually, he obviously thought she was noisy, and sometimes he wanted to sew her mouth shut, but when she was really gone, he felt a little empty. "When Yu'er is safe, she should write to us."

"No, she will only write to you alone." Luo Tang stroked the broken hair on his forehead, "If you receive it, remember to tell me."

"Definitely." Luo replied lightly.

At the same time, another figure appeared in her mind.

I don't know where that guy was assigned?

When she thought of this, she felt depressed. She clearly had the opportunity to come to Shangyuan, but he wasted this excellent opportunity.

And the Inspector of the Privy Council, too, why can they sit back and watch such a mistake happen?

But... everything is a foregone conclusion.

He is not Luo You'er, so it is impossible to use letters to inform him of the news.

Maybe after this farewell, there will never be a chance to meet again, right?

...

After entering the inner city, Luo gently got off the car and waved goodbye to Luo Tang, Luo Changtian and the others—the alchemist who was elected to the outer palace had to go to the Privy Council to report first, while those like her who were directly promoted to the general palace had to go to Meet someone.

That is Luo Yufei, the current concubine of the Holy Majesty and the biological mother of the Fourth Prince.

There are quite a few women from the family who marry the royal family, but only a few of them can give birth to children, not to mention that she gave birth to a boy. Relying on the fourth prince, Concubine Luo's status has risen, and she can already be compared with the head of the family in the family. All the Luo family's children who are eligible to enter the inner palace must pay her respects first, which is equivalent to getting acquainted with her.

And with her is none other than Eldest Senior Brother Luo Fengqing.

In fact, she has hardly talked to her senior brother since she experienced the evil night in Qingshan town. After all, his performance that night was really disappointing. Even though Luo Fengqing took the initiative to find him a few times later, trying to ease the relationship between the two, when she thought about the evil night, her resistance was like a stick in her throat.

In addition, there is another point that makes her quite concerned, that is, the other party's ranking is not outstanding, almost falling outside the top ten, but in the end he still got the order of appointment and dismissal from the inner court, which made her somewhat suspicious that the Privy Council was recruiting talents. seriousness and fairness.

The two remained silent all the way, led by the servants in the palace, passed through the high wall of the palace from the side, and entered the Huayang Hall for hospitality with twists and turns.

Although this hall is still some way away from the real core area of ​​the imperial palace, its grand outline and red and yellow color schemes have already set off the imperial aura.

To Luo Weiqing's surprise, the meeting was not to meet together, but to enter one by one.

After Luo Fengqing entered it, it took almost a quarter of an hour to come out.

"Miss Luo, please." The servant lowered his body and led him the way.

Luo gently adjusted the corners of his robes and walked into the hall.

The interior of this side hall is not big, there are steps in the middle, a red carpet is spread from the top to the door, and the beautiful woman sitting at the end of the red carpet is undoubtedly Luo Yufei.

Luo took two steps forward lightly, spread out her long skirt, and knelt down on the cushion according to formal etiquette.

"Luo Qingqing, the sixteenth generation disciple of the Luo family, pays respects to Concubine Luo."

"Don't be too polite, just get up and talk."

The other party's voice was clear and kind, as if she had been looking forward to this meeting for a long time.

"Thank you ma'am."

Luo stood up gently and slowly, and then couldn't help being startled. The other party actually left his seat, dragged a long court silk robe down the steps, and came straight to her.

According to my impression, Concubine Luo entered the palace at the age of eighteen, and gave birth to the fourth prince at the age of nineteen, and she should be in her mid-thirties now. But her appearance at this time is still young and soft, like a woman in her early twenties, and her skin is as delicate as silk.

"Okay, okay...you're really nice." She held Luo Qingqing's cheek and looked at it carefully, and said three good words in one breath.

The latter was momentarily taken aback.

"Hehe, you don't have to be cautious." Luo Yufei took her hand and pulled her back to the seat, "I have heard for a long time that there is another genius from the Luo family in Youzhou. Well, seeing you today, it really lives up to its reputation."

"You flatter me."

"Why, you don't know. The various ministries of the Privy Council have come to me several times recently to inquire about your situation. It can't be a lie, right?" Luo Yufei said with a smile, "But I've thought about it. Not the best place for you, so didn't say a word to them."

"I think it would be great if I can join the command department and protect the surrounding areas of the capital without any worries." Luo thought for a while and said.

"Hey, that's the work of the outer palace, how can I let you do it. But even the inner palace is still a bit inferior." Luo Yufei paused for a moment, and suddenly changed the subject, "I don't know what you think of my son ?”

"Eh?" Luo paused lightly, "I don't know much about His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince..."

"He was sixteen at the time, only one year behind you. He is always restless and likes to run outside the palace. I can hardly trust others, but if you are watching, I will feel more at ease."

"But isn't that what a guard should do?"

"Of course there are guards, but if you want to prevent people from being harmed by spells, you have to rely on alchemists. That child is good at everything, but he has no ability to sense Qi, so he is not as lucky as the second prince and third princess—" Luo Yu said Fei's tone became more gloomy, but soon returned to the original, "And you are undoubtedly the most suitable candidate."

"but……"

"There's nothing to hesitate, I've already made an arrangement with the inner government for you," the other party's words startled Luo slightly, "There just happens to be such a seat in the command department. It is the best position to be promoted to the fifth-rank test, and you can freely enter and leave the court. Most people can't find it. Not only can you use the magic materials reserved by the royal family, learn the most advanced alchemy, but you can also meet many important people. Undoubtedly Perfect for a genius like you."

"Excuse me, why don't you let the senior brother take up this position?" She tried to evade.

"Silly girl, what are you talking about?" Luo Yufei covered her mouth and laughed, "Your elder brother is a man, how can a girl be effective in disciplining people? You are so beautiful, my son will definitely be very happy." I like you."

"Your Majesty!" Luo said anxiously, "I don't think I will—"

"Hey, I didn't mean to force you, it's just for the sake of you and the Luo family." Luo Yufei showed a smile that I understand, "Anyway, it's only two years, when you get this achievement, you will be promoted to try After the front, there will naturally be more choices. This errand is too rare, and it took me a lot of effort to dispel the thoughts of the group of female alchemists outside. Now it is impossible to withdraw, you... you will never want to Did you mess up the rules of the Privy Council?".
