Chapter 342 Li Tongrong shows his love
On the evening of drizzling rain, Jin Ling and his group finally returned to the new headquarters of Jinyuan.
The matter of surrendering to the Shang royal family and obtaining fiefs is still in a secret state and has not been made public to the public. The people in Jinyuan are not aware of it. Therefore, the process from entering the Lingshan Fairyland to entering the headquarters gate did not attract any special attention.
Of course, the village master Li Tongrong knew about it. As a member of the Second Prince Shang Yu, he had learned about the news from the Feiying letter from the Second Prince's Mansion.
This news shocked him deeply and could not calm down for a long time.
This kid's true identity is actually the only descendant of the Jin royal family? This kid is hidden very deeply! Thinking about the various strange things he showed before, it is really something that people with ordinary identities can do!
Now it seems that this kid is a celebrity in front of the Shang King. Can he give him a title or fief? In the past, only those who have made unsuccessful military achievements could be granted a title and a fief!
This means that this kid has since become the most eye-catching and dazzling young hero in the kingdom, and has become a model in the minds of thousands of people.
Then you should be more careful in your actions in the future. Although it is necessary to act according to the orders of His Highness the Second Prince and others, you must not be verbally polite and give others a handle.
He felt that at least it was necessary to have a good relationship with this kid on the surface.
Therefore, after receiving the news that Jin Ling returned to the fairyland, Li Tongrong hurriedly came with a gift, and happened to meet Jin Ling who had returned home at the gate.
"Sir Jin, are you back?" He greeted him with a shy face and a little embarrassed. Then he saluted Shang Ran next to him, "Hello, Your Highness Eleventh."
"Hello, Lord, the village master." The other party was willing to come, so Jin Ling had to deal with it.
"Justice Jin went to the palace this time..." As soon as he said, he remembered Shang Yu's letter of instructing that the fact that Jin Ling's surrender and title was only circulated among the upper-level officials of the kingdom, and had not been made public to the outside world and should not be promoted at will, so he looked deep inside the Jinyuan Gate, "Let's go in and talk?"
"Okay, sir." The young man smiled and led Li Tongrong into the door. Although he still had grudges in his heart, the Lord Li was still his immediate boss.
No matter when, it is not wise to have a fight with his immediate boss and cannot come to Taiwan. Before, he was forced to go against Li Huan and others. Now Li Tongrong has to at least face him.
When they heard the young master return, the backbone of Jinyuan came out to greet him. They didn't know what was happening in Jinhua City.
"I have something to talk about with the village master. Xiaoli makes a pot of good tea for us, make some snacks, and bring them to the study." Jin Ling ordered Xiaoli.
"Yes, young master." Jin Ling became the deputy village owner of Xian Village, so after the previous acting village owner, she had a lot of social engagements and would occasionally bring some officials from Xian Village and Xian Village to Jinyuan to receive her. She was not surprised by this.
Jin Ling had no close maid and servant around her. As the bought demon slave, she consciously took on some daily trivial matters of serving tea and water. Being able to stay with this kind young master is a great happiness compared to her previous painful experience in the slave market, and she also enjoys it.
In addition, he ordered the other people accompanying him to be placed in Caoyuanju Inn first, and then the residence will be arranged tomorrow.
Jin Ling himself brought Li Tongrong to his study.
"Justice Jin is young and I never thought he likes reading so much." Looking at the dazzling array of books in the study, Li Tongrong couldn't help but praise him.
"I have loved reading since I was a child. However, I didn't have much money before and I could see very few books. Now I can get more books, but it's ridiculous. The idea of reading is not as strong as before." Jin Ling said with a smile.
"It is human nature to not cherish what is easy to get your hands."
After a moment, Xiao Li skillfully presented fragrant tea and snacks, turned around and left at the door.
The only two of them were left in the study.
"Demon Clan?" Looking at her Xiao Xiao Tingting's back, Li Tongrong frowned.
"Haha." Jin Ling smiled indifferently.
"As a demon clan who can transform into a human form as a maid, Lord Jin is indeed very powerful." Li Tongrong praised him intentionally or unintentionally.
"It was also by chance that I met her in the slave market. I saw that she was bullied by the shopkeeper and bought it." Jin Ling said, "The village master worked hard and came to my small Jinyuan area in person. I wonder what the hell is there?"
"Why should I ask the Lord Jin knows why?" Li Tongrong smiled bitterly, "Although what happened in the royal family in Jinhua City has not been made public to the world, as the lord of a village, I have a close connection with the adults in the royal court. How can I not know?"
"The village master already knows it? He is really well-informed!" Jin Ling pretended to be surprised.
"A small country like Northern Jin has a population of more than 4 million, and there is only one big city and seventeen immortal towns in the country. There is a little bit of a stir, everyone knows it, let alone such a big thing." Li Tongrong said, "Sir Jin, you cured the poison for Your Majesty and got the Baron. The entire Shuangshi Xian Village will become your fiefdom. The immortal town will have no right to govern you and Shuangshi in the future, so you must say hello to you in advance."
Li Tongrong is also a person with a heart. Jin Ling thought to himself.
Yes, no one who can get a first-level official position in the kingdom will be a good-looking person.
"June Jin is extremely intelligent, good at changing power and plotting, and his potential for cultivating immortals is unfathomable. Naturally, I know that I am from the Second Prince." Li Tongrong did not hide it. To be honest, "I was ordered before, and I was very resistant to you, you will become an official."
Jin Ling nodded.
"I never expected that you, Master Jin, are actually descendants of Jinnan Mountain." Li Tongrong said with emotion, "It's not just that I didn't expect it, I'm afraid that no one in the Northern Jin Kingdom would have thought of it."
"This can only be said to be myself, it's hidden too deeply." Jin Ling smiled self-deprecatingly.
"It's amazing to be able to hide your identity until now." Li Tongrong praised again intentionally and said with a slight sigh, "It's better for Lord Feng and the eldest prince to show off their abilities and recognize them with a keen eye."
"Lord Li was joking. His Highness the Great Prince only learned my true identity after I completely cured the poison of the Shang King." Jin Ling said.
Li Tongrong sighed and said some social engagements, and finally expressed the main purpose of the trip.
"The Lord Jin will become the fief of Shuangshi in the future. Although he has not been promoted, he has been promoted. The Ministry of Personnel of the Kingdom has not canceled your position as deputy village chief. According to the past practice of title, the appointment and removal of officials, taxes, labor service, money and grain expenditure, and guarding forces for fief are all managed by the Lord. The Kingdom only sends personnel to supervise and will never interfere. Therefore, starting from next month, all kinds of money and grain and other money in Xianxiang will be cut off. You need to raise all the money and grain and materials yourself. You need to prepare early to avoid being caught off guard and cause trouble."
