"It's the Castellan's wife's father. Isn't that Mr. Cai Yong, the great Confucian scholar? Heavens, he's a true great Confucian scholar. In the history of Huaxia, there aren't many of such great Confucian scholars in every era. Each of them is erudite and knowledgeable. They're living treasures, respected and loved by the world. "
"It's Mr. Cai Yong. It's said that when Dong Zhuo entered Luoyang and took control, he didn't dare to offend a great Confucian scholar like Cai Yong. He had to be polite when he met him. If he offended a great Confucian scholar, he would offend the entire Confucian school and all the scholars in the world. "
"In the Eternal Continent, the myriad worlds have merged. It's incredible that family members who have been separated can reunite. It's so rare. In this chaotic world, no one knows what will happen tomorrow. No one knows if they can survive. Perhaps he had already died a long time ago. He had died in the wilderness, surrounded by vicious beasts, monsters, and other races. Every moment was filled with danger. It's a miracle that they're still alive. "
"So many scholars. But why are there old farmers and doctors? Where did the Castellan go to bring back so many people? And it seems that none of them are simple. They're all cultivators. They're not ordinary people. Who are they? "
The commoners in the Xuanhuang City were also puzzled as they witnessed this scene.
But they could feel that the sudden arrival of these scholars would inevitably bring amazing changes to the development of Xuanhuang Castle.
The help they would bring was immeasurable.
"Jia Yucun! 1”
Yi Tianxing shouted.
"Yes." Jia Yucun had already rushed over. When he heard the call, he immediately stood up.
"Are there any vacant houses in the city to accommodate these scholars?" Yi Tianxing asked.
"Please rest assured, my Lord. A number of houses have already been reserved in the city. No one is living in them yet. We can accommodate them temporarily. As for the rest, we can talk about it later, "Jia Yucun said decisively.
"Well, I'll leave them to you for the time being. If it's possible, register them and issue them with Natural Register Cards. Arrange for someone to explain to them the changes in Xuanhuang Castle. "
Yi Tianxing nodded and ordered.
Now that these people had a sense of belonging to Xuanhuang Castle, what they needed to do now was to solidify this sense of belonging. Once he settled down in Xuanhuang Castle, everything else could be done naturally.
At this time, Cai Yong and Cai Yan also controlled their emotions. The excitement and happiness on his face could not be concealed.
When he looked at Yi Tianxing again, Cai Yong's gaze was truly that of a father-in-law looking at his son-in-law. Even his mentality and thoughts had fundamentally changed.
"Yi Tianxing greets father-in-law, please forgive me for being with Zhao Ji without your permission."
Yi Tianxing immediately greeted Cai Yong.
This was respect for the elders.
"You don't have to worry about these formalities. There are too many unknowns in this situation of the fusion of worlds. No one knows whether relatives can be reunited or not. Are you and Zhao Ji not getting married for the rest of your life because you can't see me for the rest of your life? Isn't this nonsense? There's no such logic in this world. "
Cai Yong said with a smile.
Now he was looking at Yi Tianxing with more and more satisfaction.
Capable and courageous.
In such a short period of time, Ji Hao had built such a vast city from nothing, even formed a circle of forces, and became an overlord who ruled over tens of millions of human beings. Such a son-in-law was hard to find even if one looked for a lantern. But he happened to be in his own hands. What else could he be dissatisfied with?
Regarding this, Cai Yong was laughing and ecstatic from the bottom of his heart.
Especially when he saw his daughter's appearance. She didn't seem to be unhappy at all. This made him even more satisfied.
What a perfect son-in-law.
There was nothing to be picky about.
"Since my son-in-law wants to build a career, then as your father-in-law, I have to help you no matter what. Yan 'er is still too naive. Although my son-in-law only has one woman now, as my power expands, I will continue to grow stronger. In the future, whether it's because of benefits or other reasons, I will definitely have many women by my side. If I don't have a backer, my position will be threatened in the future. "
It was true that Cai Yong was a great scholar, but he was also a father.
Especially when they reunited after parting, he had an urge to do something for her.
Cai Yan could not think about it, but he had to.
"Tianxing, I plan to rebuild Jixia Academy. It will be rebuilt in Xuanhuang Castle."
Cai Yong suddenly said.
"Father-in-law and General Qi, please come to the City Lord's Mansion to discuss." A strange glint flashed in Yi Tianxing's eyes. He didn't agree immediately. Instead, he asked them to go back to the City Lord's Mansion.
"Okay!!"
Cai Yong looked at the City Lord's Mansion standing on top of the Palace Baoshu and nodded. He couldn't help but feel curious.
Yi Tianxing smiled and held Cai Yan's hand. He led the way to the City Lord's Mansion.
Huang Chengyan, Jia Xu, and the rest followed.
In the backyard, in a huge gazebo.
Yi Tianxing sat at the head of the table. Cai Yan sat beside him.
Huang Chengyan and the rest were also seated.
A servant girl took out some seasonal fruits and placed them in front of them.
Lai He had already gone to prepare breakfast.
It was still early in the morning. It was the best time for breakfast. They had just returned, so Yi Tianxing and the rest hadn't eaten anything yet. A good meal was more suitable than anything else.
"Brother Boyu, you said earlier that you plan to rebuild Jixia Academy," Huang Chengyan said.
"That's right. Since Yan 'er is already with Tianxing, then I don't plan to leave this place. I don't plan to interfere with the politics anymore. All I can do is teach and educate people. Moreover, among the students that I brought from the academy, there will definitely be some who are unwilling to become officials. There will be some who are suitable to govern. Staying in the academy to teach and educate people will make the best use of them. We won't waste our talents. "
Cai Yong nodded and said slowly, "Forgive me for being blunt.
"Forgive me for being blunt. An academy should be built, but I don't think it should be Jixia Academy. It should be a new academy that belongs to our Xuanhuang Castle. Jixia Academy can have one, two, three, or even ten or a hundred academies. Jixia Academy will be separated, and there will definitely be more than one site. Anyone who obtains the inheritance will be qualified to build Jixia Academy. Instead of that, it's better to build a unique academy. The name may be different, but the nature can be the same. "
Jia Xu suddenly said.
Jixia Academy had an extremely important position in history. In the eyes of every cultivator of the Hundred Schools, it was a sacred place. In their hearts, it had a high status. It was almost unshakable.
This was the Eternal Continent, and Jixia Academy had long been divided into various ruins.
As long as one obtained the ruins, they would be qualified to build Jixia Academy. This was what Cai Yong planned to do.
However, Yi Tianxing did not want to rebuild Jixia Academy. He wanted to build an academy that could also be built elsewhere. If he really built it, when he encountered similar academies in the future, who would be the master and who would be the second?
This was enough to make people think twice.
Moreover, Yi Tianxing didn't want to copy others' words. He wanted to inherit the path of the predecessors.
It wasn't that he couldn't inherit it, but he wanted to walk a new path.
"Giving up the name of Jixia Academy will only make the path more difficult in the future. With the name of Jixia Academy, it will naturally attract a large number of scholars, "Cai Yong said as he shook his head.
It would be a pity to give up such an advantage.
"It's not a pity. Although we won't use the name of Jixia Academy, it doesn't mean that we can't use its influence. Moreover, the influence of an academy is often related to the corresponding power. As long as Xuanhuang Castle is strong enough, it won't be as difficult to develop the academy. Jixia Academy was also built from scratch, step by step. If others can do it, so can Xuanhuang Castle. "
Yi Tianxing said confidently.
"I agree with you, Master. Although Jixia Academy has a high status, it's the Eternal World now. However, we are now in the Eternal World, and everything is a new beginning. If we can establish an academy, its status will eventually surpass Jixia Academy. At that time, the founder of the academy will definitely be passed down through the ages, and it won't be someone who just copied the wisdom of others, "Jia Xu said slowly.
Passed down through the ages!
Hearing those words, Cai Yong's eyes immediately revealed a trace of emotion.
It had to be known that the greatest wish of scholars was to leave their name in history. If they could achieve this, they wouldn't have any regrets even if they died. Rebuilding Jixia Academy might make a name for itself, but it wouldn't be able to be passed down through the ages.
As for creating an academy that could rival or even surpass Jixia Academy, it was easy to imagine that one's name would really be remembered throughout the ages, and it would be enough to be worshipped and respected by countless scholars.
This wasn't about revisiting history. It was about creating history.
In an instant, this sentence seemed to have a magical power that took root in his heart. It was hard to erase.
"Tianxing, what kind of academy are you planning to build?"
Cai Yong took a deep breath and asked again.
This time, he showed a trace of interest in his words.
He also felt that if he really did this, there was a chance of success.
"I plan to build a brand new academy. This academy will be like Jixia Academy and can accommodate all kinds of branches. It will accommodate all kinds of thoughts and uphold the principle of openness. It will allow all kinds of ideas to be born and all kinds of theories to be spread in the academy. I hope to recreate the bright explosion of civilization during the Spring and Autumn Warring States Period. Not only will it cultivate culture, but it will also cultivate martial arts. Hundreds of schools of thought will coexist and truly achieve freedom of thought and academic freedom. It will strive to gather all kinds of wisdom and create different sparks of wisdom. It will push the entire human civilization into a new stage. "
