Traveling to Ancient Times: My Space Contains Weapons

Chapter 1036 Zhou Lan's Second Family Rules the World

"Your Highness, the ruler of Chenqi Kingdom is surnamed Zhou, and the ruler of Chu Kingdom is surnamed Lan!"

Holy crap, after hearing this, Chu Chen had already guessed most of it. It seemed that these two countries had quite a history with him.

However, we'll have to wait and see whether that's true or not.

"So, is the military strength of Chenqi Kingdom stronger than that of Chu Kingdom?"

“That’s right, young master. Chenqi Kingdom is primarily based on military force, while Chu Kingdom is primarily based on commerce.”

"However, the two countries have never been at war and have always lived in peace."

After hearing this, Chu Chen became even more certain of his guess, but he didn't know whether the rulers of the two countries were actually from the Zhou family and the Lan family.

If so, then it would be much easier to collect amethyst in this world.

"Heh, these two countries will probably never go to war!"

Chu Chen smiled slightly after hearing this, and then served him another bowl of chicken soup.

"Who is this Dao Tian Sect you speak of?"

"I see that you possess strength of around the third rank, which would make you a master among ordinary people. How strong are you within your sect?"

Chu Chen was right. If Qiu Yu were among ordinary people, she would indeed be considered a master.

I still remember back then, I found a fourth-rank guard and I was already very safe.

I wonder if there are even more powerful experts in the Daotian Sect, where Qiu Yu is located.

“Young Master, Qiu Yu’s strength is low, but within the sect, she is considered a backbone of the younger generation.”

"My master was a sixth-rank expert, but he was killed without cause!"

"Our Daotian Sect's leader is an eighth-rank expert, so the Daotian Sect can be considered a major sect in Chenqi Kingdom, and the number one sect in Kongming City."

Chu Chen listened and said he understood.

After a hundred years of development, it's estimated that things will remain the same as the old Great Xia Dynasty, where a ninth-rank expert is probably the top level of strength in this world.

Those masters at the grandmaster level are extremely rare, probably none at all.

"Alright, just focus on recovering. Once you're healed, come with me to the capital!"

After saying that, Chu Chen left the bedside and lay down on a small couch on the other side of the room.

The Zhou family? And the Lan family? Who are they? And how are those dog-headed men faring?

It seems that sending people away without careful selection was indeed like sowing seeds; it could unknowingly change the world's格局 (geju, a concept encompassing the overall structure and overall situation).

As he pondered these thoughts, Chu Chen drifted off to sleep.

Since there's nothing else to do, I might as well go to sleep. No matter who he is, this is all within my own Chu Tian Realm. As long as the Chu Tian Realm develops well, that's a good thing.

Five days later, Qiuyu had recovered well and was able to get out of bed and walk.

But every time she secretly looked at her wound and the hair that hadn't grown back yet, her face would burn.

Now that the young master before me has seen it, then for the rest of my life, I belong to him.

Wherever he went, I went too, staying by his side and taking good care of him.

Ten days later, Chu Chen led Qiu Yu out of the inn.

Then he bought a carriage in the West Market and headed straight for the capital.

Along the way, Chu Chen kept observing this world, but as he traveled, he felt that the layout of the entire world carried a trace of the Great Xia Dynasty.

It seems that the influence I had on them back then was indeed still quite significant.

Along each official road, there are drainage ditches, and from time to time, you can see two- or three-story buildings made of bricks and tiles.

Moreover, all carriages must keep to the right.

The street vendors and the like were all arranged in an orderly manner, and although it was lively, it did not appear chaotic.

"Young master, once you leave this city, you can reach the capital by traveling another three hundred li!"

Early in the morning, Chu Chen drove his carriage leisurely, leading Qiu Yu out of the city gate.

Qiu Yu looked at the straight pipe in front of her and said to Chu Chen.

"Oh, this Chenqi Kingdom seems to be quite peaceful."

"We've been traveling for so many days and haven't found any banditry or anything like that!"

Qiu Yu smiled and replied, "Young Master, it's all thanks to His Majesty's good governance. In recent years, the government has made great efforts to rectify the power of our sects."

"Therefore, some feuds in the martial arts world never involve ordinary people. Even major battles between sects will not take place in densely populated areas!"

So it seems that it's been managed quite well.

Which member of the Zhou family, it was their descendant, who ended up here?

Moreover, what she created was a world with martial artists. Could it be her?

Chu Chen walked along, making guesses as he went.

After two days of leisurely sightseeing, the two finally saw the gates of the capital.

Once inside the capital, Chu Chen discovered that it was built exactly like the capital of the Great Xia Dynasty.

He couldn't help but click his tongue in surprise: "Qiuyu, are you familiar with the capital?"

"I've been here once or twice. The palace is over there!"

After saying that, Qiu Yu pointed in the direction of the palace. Chu Chen smiled inwardly. Now he was almost completely convinced that the emperor here must be a descendant of that Zhou Shixun.

So they found an inn next to the palace and checked in with Qiuyu.

"Young master, you must be tired from your journey. Now that Qiuyu's injuries have fully healed, let Qiuyu serve you!"

As soon as they entered the room, Qiu Yu fetched a basin of water, walked up to Chu Chen, and prepared to wash his face and feet.

While talking, she was also pulling at Chu Chen's clothes!

"Um, well, you rest for a bit first. I have some things to take care of. We'll talk again after I'm done!"

Chu Chen did not accept Qiu Yu's enthusiasm. Instead, he stood up, pushed open the door, and walked out.

Qiu Yu held the towel, staring blankly at Chu Chen as he left, wondering if this young master had a problem in that area.

No matter what, she was a delicate and beautiful woman, so why did he show no interest whatsoever?

With questions in mind, she wiped herself with the towel in her hand after working hard for days and climbed into bed.

Chu Chen went straight to the roof of the palace.

At this moment, he desperately wanted to know who this Zhou family emperor was.

He had no time to think about Qiu Yu inside the inn.

Besides, some things, while indispensable, cannot be eaten as food.

Standing atop the highest palace in the royal palace, I took a look around and thought to myself, "This guy must have brought blueprints with him."

Isn't this just a replica of the Great Xia Dynasty's imperial palace?

With that in mind, Chu Chen headed straight for the emperor's study.

Inside the imperial study, a woman in her thirties was reviewing memorials on the table.

Perhaps she was a little tired, she raised her arm and waved, then walked toward the two paintings on the wall.

"Grandmaster, do you think you finally found this young master?"

"And is this young master really as mysterious as the legends say?"
