Primordial Era: Exceptional Comprehension, Destroying Buzhou Mountain at the Start

Chapter 319

"I'm not sure about that. Perhaps His Majesty hopes that you will not only achieve something in military strategy, but also in literature." Xue Rengui was genuinely unsure about this arrangement. However, he recalled how Emperor Xiao's creation of the Thirty-Six Stratagems, a divine art of military strategy, had greatly boosted the fortunes of the Tang Dynasty.

With such wisdom and insight, who knows if Di Xiao might make a breakthrough in literature and the arts? Perhaps this is what Li Shimin was hoping for.

Di Xiao also thought of this, his brows furrowing slightly as he ate the spiritual fruit: "Alright, then I'll try to serve as the prefect of Yuhang County."

"That's right." Xue Rengui laughed, then carefully took out a scroll: "Di Xiao, this is for you."

"What's this?" Di Xiao took the scroll, glanced at it casually, and his puzzled look turned to astonishment before he exclaimed, "What is this scroll?"

"This scroll is a piece peeled off from the Great Tang Landscape Painting. It depicts the Women's Kingdom where you were during your martial arts examination, as well as the countless female warriors you trained in. Even Ruolin and Xilin are in it." Xue Rengui said with a slight smile.

Di Xiao stared blankly at the scroll, completely surprised that the female warriors he had painstakingly trained were actually real, and had even been handed over to him.

Xue Rengui, seemingly noticing Di Xiao's confusion, continued, "In fact, the many worlds, human races, and nations that evolve within the Great Tang Landscape Map are all real. However, most of these nations are formed by collecting various intelligence from all over the prehistoric world and ultimately developing them into a special sand table within the map. This allows our Great Tang to be well-prepared for future wars against foreign powers."

"You must understand that although the primordial world is relatively peaceful now, those who love war will perish, and those who forget war will be in danger. Our Great Tang must be prepared at all times. Of course, in order to make this special sandbox realistic, the humans in it were specially found to be from outside the Nine Provinces and raised here as subjects for simulation. However, these humans from outside the Nine Provinces are still humans. With the passage of time and education, they will also completely become true humans."

"Because of you, the entire human race of the Women's Kingdom has been completely educated. Everything is now yours. It can also be considered an aid to your management of Yuhang County."

Good heavens! All the countless female warriors I had carefully trained in the Kingdom of Women, whom I thought I had lost forever, I never expected to receive them in this way.

Di Xiao was very happy about this, smiled slightly, and clenched his fist: "Good, with these help, I will be much more relaxed."

"Alright, I won't keep you any longer. You should go to your post as soon as possible." After saying this, Xue Rengui watched Di Xiao leave.

Soon, Di Xiao returned to his Duke's mansion.

Wu Meiniang had been waiting for Emperor Xiao's arrival: "Welcome, my husband, on passing the martial arts examination and being promoted to the position of Prefect of Yuhang County."

Seeing the alluring Wu Meiniang, his previously chaotic heart was completely soothed. He smiled slightly and helped her up: "Haha... mere verbal congratulations aren't enough. Come with me..."

As he said this, he picked up Wu Meiniang. Although Di Xiao wasn't particularly interested in the joint training, he always felt a restless urge when facing Wu Meiniang.

Wu Meiniang smiled charmingly and followed Di Xiao deeper into the mansion.

……

After several years, Emperor Xiao, accompanied by Wu Meiniang, Ruolin, Xilin, and thousands of female warriors, arrived in Yuhang County via a teleportation array.

Yuhang County is located in Yangzhou, one of the Nine Provinces, and is in the heart of Yangzhou. This place is also considered one of the most prosperous areas in the Nine Provinces, with a large population of people living a very good life.

Upon entering Yuhang County, one sees countless officials dressed in official robes and armor.

Officials from the nine townships and nine towns under Yuhang Prefecture all arrived. They all greeted him with utmost respect, saying, "We pay our respects to Lord Dixiao."

Di Xiao's gaze swept over the crowd, revealing their cultivation levels. After observing them for a while, he said, "There's no need for such formalities. My appointment as the prefect of Yuhang County is a matter of chance. Moreover, I have no prior experience with this, so I hope you will all assist me in the future."

Upon hearing this, many officials were filled with trepidation and repeatedly said they dared not.

Di Xiao casually waved his hand and stepped into the official residence of the Prefect of Yuhang County. This residence was also a blessed place, with many formations that gathered spiritual energy. Although it couldn't compare to Di Xiao's Duke's Mansion, it was still quite nice.

Once inside, you'll discover its vastness, resembling a city.

Countless officials were here, handling countless matters.

Seeing this scene, Di Xiao felt somewhat conflicted. After all, he had never managed the affairs of a region before and really didn't know how to handle it.

Even back in the Daughter Kingdom, she had always entrusted many matters to her subordinates. So now, looking at Ruolin and Xilin beside her, she said, "It's going to be up to you two again."

"Young Master is too kind. We are all your people, so it is only natural that we should share your burdens." Ruolin bowed slightly, looking at Di Xiao with utmost respect. Since leaving the Great Tang Landscape Map, they had been completely loyal to Di Xiao.

Therefore, whatever Di Xiao arranged, they would follow. Di Xiao smiled with satisfaction: "Ruolin, you first organize all the government affairs and information of Yuhang County, and then tell me. As for Xilin, take all the Jurchens from the Daughter Kingdom and reorganize the army in Yuhang County. Tell me everything if you encounter any problems."

"Yes, young master!" Ruolin and Xilin immediately withdrew upon hearing this.

The remaining figures are Di Xiao and Wu Meiniang, who remains silent beside him. Di Xiao, naturally, wouldn't let Wu Meiniang remain idle, and softly murmured, "Meiniang, I'm entrusting the affairs of the Prefect's residence to you. Also, you should spend more time with Ruolin and Xilin. If necessary, you can handle the military and political affairs of Yuhang Prefecture for me."

"Me? Husband, how can I, a mere woman, handle such a matter?" Wu Meiniang shook her head repeatedly, a slight fear rising within her.

Di Xiao smiled, genuinely at a loss for words. Wu Meiniang, the future empress, was now so terrified, having been given control of a mere prefecture.

But Di Xiao wasn't stupid. He had such a talented woman by his side, and she was also his wife, so he could absolutely trust her. Naturally, Di Xiao wouldn't let her be idle.

"Alright, give it a try first. After all, this world is ultimately ruled by the strong, and I don't want trivial matters to affect my cultivation." Di Xiao was very serious and knew exactly what he was going to do.

Cultivation and growth are what Di Xiao should be doing. He genuinely doesn't want to deal with the trivial matters in Yuhang County, lest they affect his cultivation.

Seeing Di Xiao's decision, Wu Meiniang could only say with a wronged expression, "I'll listen to my husband. I'll try it first, and if I make a mistake, my husband can't blame me."

"Haha, I can't."

Emperor Xiao smiled, indicating that Wu Meiniang could operate as she pleased.
