Of course there are surprises.
For example, those who are not future family heirs in the fire, Qin Zheng will award them titles, those who do not have titles, they will be made barons, and those who are already barons, they will be made viscounts. And give a certain fiefdom. As for Qin Shuang, she was already a Viscount, so Qin Zheng made her an Earl.
Qin Shuang accepted the title, but still declined the fiefdom. Qin Zheng was not surprised, so he rewarded Qin Shuang with a large amount of training resources, plus an earl's mansion.
After that, there was an all-night celebration, and the banquet didn't end until the next morning. Qin Zheng sent someone to lead Qin Shuang to the earl's mansion that was rewarded to her. There was a middle-aged man standing in front of the earl's mansion. His hair and clothes were meticulously arranged. Behind him stood sixteen warriors, and behind the sixteen warriors were some men and women.
The carriage stopped, and Qin Shuang jumped out of the carriage. The meticulous old man stepped forward quickly, then bent down and saluted:
"The old slave pays homage to the Earl."
Qin Shuang turned her head to look at the palace warrior who accompanied her. The palace warrior said respectfully:
"My lord, these are the servants and retainers presented to you by His Majesty. This is your steward, the sixteen warriors behind are your retainers, and the rest are your servants and servant girls..."
Qin Shuang nodded, for these people, Qin Shuang did not give full trust. Although these people were completely hers the moment they came to her house, for example, the sixteen warriors were headed by a first-level Martial King, and two peaks of the ninth level of the alchemy stage. All of them are the first layer of the Chengdan period. Moreover, these sixteen warriors are all innocent, they didn't come from the family, they are all from poor families. And Qin Zheng also made it clear that they will only obey Qin Shuang's orders in the future.
but……
Qin Shuang was not sure that when she had a conflict with Qin Zheng, these sixteen people would still follow her. Moreover, they were not sure whether they would still obey their own orders when Qin Zheng gave them orders.
Therefore, Qin Shuang just nodded lightly, and walked into the earl's mansion that now belongs to her. First, she visited it to get familiar with her site, and then she spent a day renovating her secret room.
This secret room originally existed in the Earl's Mansion. It was deep underground, covering more than 1,000 square meters. Qin Shuang divided it into four parts. The first is the alchemy room, the second is the talisman making room, and the third is the training room.
The fourth is the lounge. As for the treasure room where resources and treasures are placed...
Forget it.
Qin Shuang didn't regard this place as his long-term residence at all, and put everything in the storage ring and Xueqin space. After laying out the spirit pattern of the half-step great master, Qin Shuang began to practice in seclusion after finishing all this.
There are still eight months before the opening of the Taikoo space, but there are still two months left before the selection of the places in the Taikoo space. Therefore, Qin Shuang hopes to raise her cultivation level to another level in these two months, even to the late stage of the alchemy stage.
but……
Qin Shuang had only practiced for three days, and Qin Shuang, who was sitting in the spirit-gathering array set up with spirit stones and practicing, heard the crisp copper bell. Qin Shuang hung copper bells in every room in the secret room, which were connected to the ground by lead wires. When something happened, the copper bells would be rang by the maid who served her daily life.
Qin Shuang opened her eyes, waved her hand to put away the Lingshi on the ground, got up and pushed the door out. Soon came to the bedroom on the ground, pushed open the door of the bedroom and walked out, and saw the maid standing anxiously in the hall, saw Qin Shuang came in, hurriedly bowed down and said:
"The servant pays homage to the Earl."
"What's the matter?" Qin Shuang asked lightly.
"The two young masters Huo Zhongyu and Huo Zhonglian are visiting."
There was a sudden look in Qin's eyes, knowing that this was for the two secret books of "Fire and Phoenix Collection" and "Danfeng Chaoyang". He nodded and walked towards the hall of the Earl's Mansion. Walking into the hall, I saw Huo Zhongyu and Huo Zhonglian sitting on the chairs in the hall, saw Qin Shuang walking in, and hurriedly stood up.
"Qin Shimei!"
"Brother Huo, my younger sister is late, please forgive me."
Huo Zhongyu quickly waved his hand and said, "Qin Shimei, you must know our reason for coming, my father invites you to come over to explain."
Qin Shuang didn't answer, but asked Huo Zhongyu and Huo Zhonglian to sit down, ordered the servant girl to serve tea, and then said with a smile:
"Brother Huo, do you think this is appropriate?"
Huo Zhongyu and Huo Zhonglian were taken aback for a moment, and then they came to their senses. No matter how prominent Qin Shuang's reputation is now, her martial arts cultivation is only in the alchemy stage. This kind of cultivation has entered the Huo family land, and it is still talking about heaven-level cheats such as "Fire and Phoenix Treasure" and "Danfeng Chaoyang". If the Huo family wants to arrest Qin Shuang, either imprison or kill him , that's too simple.
Anyway, if the Huo family had bad intentions, it would be easy for Qin Shuang to enter the Huo family, but if she wanted to get out of the Huo family again, it would not be difficult, but completely impossible.
Don't think that Qin Shuang is the Earl of the Empire now, and the Huo family will be scruples. Even if the emperor Qin Zheng knew that the Huo family had killed an imperial count, he would treat it as if he didn't know. Compared with a big family like the Huo family, an earl is too weak.
Don't think that the Huo family will be very scrupulous about Qin Shuang's various guru identities.
The Huo family would be scruples about Qin Shuang's various master identities, but definitely not very scruples. If it's just a small problem, the Huo family will lower their stance and make good friends with Qin Shuang.
but……
This is a question related to the Huo family's cultivation method, and it is related to whether the Huo family can achieve glory. Therefore, the Huo family is bound to win "Danfeng Chaoyang", and they can do whatever it takes to do so.
Therefore, if Qin Shuang handed over the exercises happily, Qin Shuang might still be alive. If Qin Shuang handed over the exercises unhappy, I am afraid that she will not be able to come out in this lifetime.
Of course, Huo Zhongyu didn’t think so. He is the head of the young patriarch, and his father told him personally that as long as Qinshuang is willing to trade "Danfeng Chaoyang", no matter what conditions Qinshuang puts forward, as long as the Huo family can do it, they will definitely not decline. Therefore, although Huo Zhongyu wanted to understand the meaning of Qin Shuang's words, a trace of displeasure appeared on his face and said:
"Qin Shimei, don't you trust our Huo Family?"
Qin Shuang looked at Huo Zhongyu, and she could feel that Huo Zhongyu was really unhappy, but she didn't feel guilty. This proves that Huo Zhongyu is upright.
but……
Huo Zhongyu is upright, but not the head of the Huo family, Qin Shuang really dare not take that risk and enter the Huo family. Once something happened, even Qin Zheng might not be on his side.
