Chapter 137: The Emperor's Generosity

~8 min read 1,551 words

"We have arrived."

In front of a courtyard, Uncle Chen smiled slightly: "Thirteenth Young Master, this Yaoguang Courtyard will be your residence from now on.

According to the standard of a legitimate son, you have been assigned two personal maids and two errand-running attendants.

Two rough-work old women, four guards, one Fire Cloud Horse, and two horse slaves.

In addition, your monthly allowance from now on will be one thousand taels of silver.

Rewards for festivals are calculated separately."

There are seven legitimate courtyards in the Duke Mansion, named after the Big Dipper.

Yin Tiancheng has three wives, and the children born to these three wives can all be called legitimate sons.

But they only gave birth to six sons, so this last Yaoguang Courtyard had been empty.

Now that Yin Qi has risen abruptly and has the treatment of a legitimate son, this Yaoguang Courtyard was naturally given to him.

Subsequently, other brothers and sisters who were at home also came to visit one after another under the leadership of their mothers.

Just like that, they chatted for half an hour, and the two left.

It's just that Yin Qi was not familiar with them, limited to knowing each other.

Either probing or making friends.

They had slender figures, beautiful appearances, and were somewhat literate, placed outside, they were at the level of young ladies from small families.

After all, their mothers were all flat wives, and their competitors were the eldest and fourth sons born to the proper wife.

This Yaoguang Courtyard was not small, covering four mu, divided into front and back courtyards.

Just as he expected, the two were here to probe.

Besides that, he also needed to work on comprehending the state of 'No-Mind No-Thought', otherwise, once he broke through to the Marrow Refining realm, he would immediately achieve the unity of spirit and flesh, making it difficult for his primordial spirit to exit his shell from then on.

Yin Qi sent Uncle Chen away and then familiarized himself with the servants and the courtyard.

However, for now, he still had to keep a low profile, and of course, he would accept the rewards.

Yin Feng didn't have the posture of a legitimate son, smiling affably: "Thirteenth, I and the tenth are here to congratulate you, and brought some gifts. In the future, we brothers must get closer, if there's anything, just find us."

The back courtyard was where Yin Qi lived, including the master bedroom, back hall, study, practice room, storage room, etc., and even a small garden.

"It's just a pity, you blocked my path!"

Study.

Looking at the items all over the floor, Yin Qi's eyes brightened slightly.

"Greetings, Young Master!"

Yin Qi dealt with it, chatting with Yin Feng and Yin Hai about this and that.

After dealing with them, he finally sent everyone away.

Especially the Snow Ginseng Organ-Nourishing Paste and Ice Soul Purple Ganoderma Pill, both were secret medicines for Viscera Refining, priceless and marketless.

Uncle Chen said: "Thirteenth Young Master, this old servant has things to do, so I'll leave first."

The storage room was specially built, paved with extremely hard basalt.

The people in the courtyard should have been notified early, standing in the courtyard in a row.

The two personal maids who took care of his daily life were both fifteen years old, named Caiyun and Cai Yu.

He now had the treatment of a legitimate son and the cultivation of the Innate peak; the ninth and tenth brothers would definitely come to see him.

The door was also a heavy iron door, completely embedded in the basalt.

"This is the Thirteenth Young Master!"

At this time, Caiyun's crisp voice came from outside the storage room.

Although they were all concubine-born sons, there was still a big difference between him, who had no mother, and the others who had mothers.

The servants bowed one after another.

Yin Qi was not surprised by the visit of the ninth and tenth brothers.

"Good, I'll be there right away!"

Subsequently, he picked up the list to check, totaling: one thousand taels of red gold, ten thousand taels of white silver, ten bolts of cloud brocade, ten knives of Pine Bamboo Pavilion paper, one purple stone inkstone, ten blocks of musk ink, three Pure Fox hair brushes, three jars of Snow Ginseng Organ-Nourishing Paste, ten Ice Soul Purple Ganoderma Pills, one threaded steel blade, one sword, and one copy of the superior martial arts book *Destruction Divine Fist*.

One mountain cannot hold two tigers; he and Emperor Gan were destined to be enemies.

……

"The martial arts state of 'No-Mind No-Thought' is something that can be met but not sought; in the entire Great Thousand World, the number of people who have comprehended this state can be counted on one's fingers: Hong Yi, Hong Xuanji, the Champion Marquis, Meng Shenji, etc., all of whom are dragons and phoenixes among people."

…………

The others were all under fifteen, and there was even one who had just been weaned.

Yin Qi sighed lightly.

Although they were brothers, they were no different from ordinary people.

Yin Feng and Yin Hai naturally didn't believe it, but they didn't show it.

However, to speed up his cultivation, he had to set up a high-level Spirit Gathering Array in Yaoguang Courtyard.

Yin Qi lowered his eyebrows and pondered.

Of the six legitimate sons of Yin Tiancheng, only the ninth, Yin Feng, and the tenth, Yin Hai, were still in the mansion.

Yin Qi came to the back courtyard, and the rewards given by Emperor Gan were placed in the storage room, or rather, his personal treasury.

This probing didn't carry any malice; it was just to know how his martial arts had progressed so rapidly and whether they could follow suit.

It had to be said, the treatment of a legitimate son was indeed different.

As for the concubine-born sons, he was considered the big one.

Front hall.

"No need to send me off, you familiarize yourself with them first. If there's anyone you're not satisfied with, this old servant will replace them for you."

"Then thank you first, Uncle Chen."

Emperor Gan had the heart to reform the world, wanting to be an ancient Sage Emperor, unify the Great Thousand World, and even covet the Heaven Beyond Heaven.

The two attendants were Zhang Cheng and Li Huan, seventeen or eighteen years old, both looking like smart people.

He had also initially familiarized himself with the twelve servants.

"This Emperor Gan can be considered to have spent a lot of money; excluding the *Destruction Divine Fist*, the others are worth at least fifty thousand taels of silver."

"Ninth Brother, Tenth Brother!"

"Greetings, Uncle Chen!"

Walking into the front hall, Yin Qi bowed with a gentle smile.

Coincidentally, this was also his goal.

The expenses of these people were the responsibility of the Duke Mansion; as a legitimate son, he could also recruit guests, but this required his own money.

Placed outside, these were rare experts.

The front courtyard was where the servants lived, including the stables.

Yin Qi naturally declined, saying that he had practiced bitterly since he was young and just hadn't shown it.

Yin Qi said "hmm" indifferently.

Yin Qi nodded and followed Uncle Chen into the courtyard.

Yin Qi took people to the old courtyard and moved his mother's spirit tablet and important items such as books to Yaoguang Courtyard.

"Although I consider myself not inferior to them, how long it will take to comprehend, and whether I can comprehend it, is ultimately an unknown."

"Okay, Uncle Chen, I'll see you off."

There were no doors or windows, only more than a dozen very narrow ventilation holes, and even mice couldn't get in.

The four guards were all burly men, all having the cultivation of the third realm of martial arts, the Bone Refining realm.

With the Snow Ginseng Organ-Nourishing Paste and Ice Soul Purple Ganoderma Pill, he had the confidence to cultivate to the Marrow Refining realm before the provincial examination next spring.

"Young Master, Ninth Young Master and Tenth Young Master have arrived and are currently drinking tea in the front hall."

They were both seventeen, and the mansion hadn't arranged their path yet.

As for other things, throw them away if they are thrown away.

There were twelve servants alone.

……

As for the other four, they had long been serving in various armies.

Yin Hai also smiled and said: "Yes, Thirteenth. We are all brothers, don't be polite if there's anything in the future."

The primordial spirit cannot exit the shell, and all Daoist cultivation is naturally lost.

Yin Feng and Yin Hai both inherited Yin Tiancheng's excellent genes, with tall figures and handsome appearances.

"Definitely, definitely."

Yin Qi always maintained a gentle smile and received them patiently.

With the Snow Ginseng Organ-Nourishing Paste and Ice Soul Purple Ganoderma Pill, cultivating to the Marrow Refining realm was a matter of course, which also meant that he didn't need to use True Qi to nourish his internal organs anymore and could continue to cultivate immortality.

Yin Qi's eyes were piercing.

His martial arts breakthrough was imminent, and there was no time for him to slowly comprehend this state.

Therefore, he could only use the altar's deduction function. ===== CHAPTER 138 =====
