Chapter 102.

The little turtle gong was hit, not angry at all, his face was piled with smiles, his attitude was respectful, even fawning:

“You wait a moment, I’ll go now, Mr. Yang is here in a big way, Niangzi must be overjoyed to know that.”

Xu Qi’an patronized Floating Fragrance every now and then, and the courtyard had long recognized him as the flower girl’s lover, so the junior concierge was arrogant and cold to other customers, but he didn’t dare to treat Xu Qi’an in an unfavorable manner.

Hate to be on my knees.

Xu Qi’an led the night watchman into the courtyard, the dark fragrance of the plum forest in the corner, the white walls and tiles, quite elegant.

Hearing that Xu Qi’an had chartered the venue, the Flower Head Maiden immediately had her maid put on exquisite makeup and wore a long pink and white floor-length dress, revealing her delicate collarbones and white neck.

The white wrap is hidden in the tulle.

Floating Fragrance personally accompanied Xu Qi’an, serving him tea and pouring him wine, occasionally chatting with her ear, smiling like a flower.

Look at the envy of the crowd of gongs.

Floating Fragrance itself is quite a famous flower girl, after the song “Dark Fragrance Floating Moon Dusk” was released, the value of the ship has risen by leaps and bounds.

I’ve heard that there are no more chaperones, at least not unusual ones.

Even so, every day to Shadow Plum Pavilion to drink and listen to music to play tea around the guests are still as many as the river of crucian carp, because Floating Fragrance will occasionally come out to be an officer, organizing everyone to play the wine order.

After three rounds of drinking, Xu Qi’an gave Song Tingfeng a wink and got up, “Fellow colleagues, Mister Xu is not up to the challenge of drinking, so I’ll rest first, you guys have fun.”

The gongs, of course, had no problem with this, interacting with each other’s eyes and hemming and hawing.

Floating Fragrance’s eyes flickered as she gave Xu Qi’an a strange look before allowing him to leave with her fragrant shoulders wrapped around her.

…..

After bathing, Xu Qi’an sat lazily in a white singlet, twirling his wine glass in his hand.

“Xu Lang seldom brings his colleagues over for wine.” Float, who had also just finished bathing, sat on the slightly farther side of the bed, tilting her head as she wiped her hair.

Her skin was warm and moist, her face flawless, and in the swaying shadow of the candle, she was more than a little enchanting and mysterious.

“It’s a long story,” Xu Qi’an sighed as he took a sip of wine, “A few days ago, the two golden gongs took a liking to me, and both wanted to recruit me under their command, so they had a fight at the night watchman’s court.”

Floating Fragrance got off the bed, the hem of her skirt fell down, covering two pairs of snow-white long legs, she wrapped her arms around Xu Qi’an from behind and laughed softly, “Being red in the eyes of the villain?”

“Red eyes have existed since ancient times.” Xu Qi’an didn’t deny it.

“Xu Lang said so earlier, so that Nu Jia could entertain your fellow officers for you.” Floating Fragrance said remorsefully.

She didn’t pay much attention to the other gongs in her seat.

“No need.” Xu Qi’an smiled.

Interpersonal skills he was not lacking, backhanded Fuuka in his arms, the wine glass tilted, the cold liquor flowed down Fuuka’s snow white neck.

“It hurts to drink like this.” Xu Qi’an smiled broadly and bowed his head.

Covered in the smell of alcohol, Fu Xiang soaked in go again, Xu Qi An excuse to go out for air, left the master bedroom, went to the wine room to take a look at the fellow officers in the sound of music, happily playing the game, as if to open the door to a new world.

In fact, as long as enough silver was given, the maids in the courtyard of the Churchyard did not refuse, as had been the case since ancient times.

Xu Qi’an leaped onto the fence, drew a piece of paper from his arms, and ignited it.

He tilted his head, and two flashes of clear air shot through the blackness.

In the line of sight, all sorts of chi numbers surfaced, and the world turned colorful.

Xu Qi’an had learned from Chu Caiwei that the turquoise color represented demonic qi, and during his night patrol that day, he had clearly seen the green light flickering in the sky over the Department of Education.

This meant that there were demons lurking in the Church Office, a very bold guess, because the Church Office was the usual place where dignitaries drank and had fun, and such a place was hiding demons.

But that’s just the way it is.

This time, Xu Qi’an kept in mind the principle of do or die, and didn’t go snooping around the Sitian Supervisor, lest he be blinded by the Supervisor’s eyes again.

He swept over the sky above the Preceptor’s Office, and as far as the eye could see, all sorts of colors flashed colorfully, but there was no demonic aura.

“Did the demon leave …. or is it hiding with a special method?” Xu Qi’an leaped off the wall and returned to the Floating Fragrance Flower Leader’s boudoir.

……

Floating Fragrance curled up in Xu Qi’an’s arms, fluttering her bright eyes, “Xu Lang, ransom your slave, will you.”

Talking about money hurts more feelings …….. Sage Time’s Xu Qi’an is unmoved.

The Flower Kui maiden twisted her body and pampered herself, “I just want to be a concubine, I just want to serve by Xu Lang’s side.”

Xu Qi’an touched her head, his fingers stroking through the green silk, “Don’t make a fuss, this sincere emotion of ours shouldn’t be mixed with the stench of copper.”

Floating Fragrance’s eyes reddened and she shed tears, “You just want to play with me for nothing and kick people away when you’re tired of playing with them.”

This was all discovered by you? Xu Qi’an thought in surprise.

On his lips, he said helplessly, “You are the Flower Leader of the Department of Cultivation, to ransom you, without four or five thousand taels, it is simply impossible. Moreover, the Ministry of Rites may not agree.”

“I’ve saved up some money over the years, and I’ve asked around, and it’ll only take three years for tongluo to buy a yard in the inner city.” Fu Xiang wrapped her arms around him and pleaded softly, “Xu Lang, ransom me.”

Not only did the inner charming flower girl know how to be pampered, she also made full use of her capital, her luscious and buoyant figure clinging to Xu Qi’an.

The waves of her eyes were tearful and pathetic.

Xu Qi’an frowned, not that it was difficult, in his previous life, he had also encountered this type of girl, who knew how to be pampered, wanting to buy this and that (luxury goods), Xu Qi’an could cope with it.

He was just a little bit strange, a florist of great reputation, her career was booming and she was at a wonderful age, even if she wanted to go to the good side, it was still a bit early, wasn’t it?

Besides, although the night watchman is scorned by the hundred officials because of his organization, he can be more than enough to be a concubine for a fourth-ranking official with Fu Xiang’s segment.

“There’s no hurry in this matter, when I’ve saved up some silver, I’ll ransom you again.” Xu Qi’an casually perfunctory, wrapping his arms around the Hua Kui’s slippery body and letting himself fall asleep in three seconds.

In the darkness, Fu Xiang quietly gazed at Xu Qi An’s face, her eyes clear.

…..

The next day, early in the morning, a group of people left the Churchyard.

When the colleagues saw Xu Qi’an, they greeted him with smiles and became much closer. If they had only treated Xu Qi’an as a fellow officer before, they now treated him as a junior partner.

The results are excellent.

In fact, as long as he wasn’t too jealous or too high in status, tongs of the same rank wouldn’t mindlessly hate him.

Be flexible, throw your weight around and show your goodwill, and most people would be willing to befriend Xu Qi’an.

Because then, the identity of a shitty guy who is being looked at by two golden gongs transforms into: this guy who is being looked at by golden gongs is my friend.

Walking and chatting along the way, a gong suddenly laughed, “Ning Banquet is really talented, letting me know how ignorant and uninteresting I was before.”

There was a good-natured and ambiguous laugh from his fellow officers.

Xu Qi’an shrugged, “I’ll teach you a few more interesting ways to play later.”

More interesting ….. The crowd’s eyes glowed.

Arriving at the night watchman’s yamen in time for the dawning, after the dawning, Xu Qi’an and Song Tingfeng came to the side hall of Chunfeng Hall, drank a few mouthfuls of tea, and were about to go out to patrol the streets, when one of the mandarins hurriedly arrived.

“Three lords, Lord Li has an invitation.”

There is a job …. Xu Qi An and the three of them hung up their sabers and came to the Spring Wind Hall side by side.

The meticulously dressed Li Yuchun blends perfectly and unobtrusively with the equally neat and organized Springfields.

Chun, you’re tired of living like this …. Xu Qi’an somewhat sympathized with his top boss’s obsessive-compulsive disorder.

Li Yuchun pointed to the three card tickets beside the case: ”We are going to raid the house today, and the three of you are going on my behalf. I’ll repeat the same words, don’t do anything superfluous.

“In a quarter of an hour, meet in the front yard and follow the rest of your peers there.”

Surprisingly, it’s a copycat?

Xu Qi’an was taken aback, copying the house was one of the business of the night watchman, targeting the offending officials.

“This is the paperwork.” Li Yuchun showed the three men the paperwork that had been issued to him.

The subject of this plagiarism, the head of the gold department of the Ministry of Revenue, the sixth grade. Exiled and plagiarized on charges of corruption and malfeasance.

The so-called copying of the family is the confiscation of the family’s property, and all of the family’s belongings are confiscated. In Xu Qi’an’s previous life, it means depriving the offender of his personal property.

Li Yuchun glanced at Xu Qi’an and said, “This person is a subordinate of Minister Zhou of the Ministry of Households.”

This was telling Xu Qi’an that this matter was a follow-up to the tax and silver case.

The downfall of a bigwig in the court is inevitably accompanied by the dismissal and punishment of the officials who are dependent on him. It’s like pulling out the carrot and bringing out the mud.

Xu Qi’an and the three of them led the order to leave, and on the way to the front yard, Song Tingfeng said: ”This is the first time you have participated in the copying of the family, there are some rules you don’t understand, I’ll give you the words.

“When confiscating a family’s property, the officials would count all the valuable objects in the front yard, record them, and bring them back to the Yamen. But they were not involved in the scavenging.”

Speaking here, Song Tingfeng gave a “you understand” look.

A veteran like Xu Qi’an immediately grasped the meaning.

“Listen to what the chief is saying …..” Xu Qi’an tried.

“Hey, don’t you mind him.” Song Tingfeng bristled, “The chief is just deadheaded and doesn’t know how to be flexible. We have to be reasonable for our own benefit.”

This was indeed the more reasonable way to seek benefits, Xu Qi’an nodded.

Song Tingfeng is as reluctant as he is to go extorting merchants and extorting the people, but right now it is to raid the homes of corrupt officials.

The silver itself is unclean, and the wool gathered is the wool of the great fathers, not the wool of the people.

He had seen this kind of thing too many times, both in his previous life and in this life. Xu Qi’an adopted a non-oppositional and disapproving attitude.

The raid was led by a silver gong, four sets of brass gongs and twenty-four white servants.

Each of the three gongs belonged to a different silver gong, and the system of multiple teams was formed to monitor and prosecute each other.

The system is good, it’s just that over time, we all take a little bit of everything, which amounts to no one taking anything.

Listening to Song Tingfeng’s science, the three of them came to the front yard and saw that there was already a gong assembling.

At the head of the group was a young silver gong, in his early thirties, with thin lips and unruly eyebrows, and just by looking at his face alone, he knew that he was not someone to get along with.

Song Tingfeng led his two colleagues to lean over and meet the silver gong, smoothly removing the vouchers from his arms.

When that silver gong saw the three of them coming over, his eyes suddenly glazed over and he said in a deep voice, “You three are late.”

Xu Qi’an was stunned, “We’re not late.”

Receiving the news they came over, and though they talked on the road and did not go fast, it was by no means more than a quarter of an hour.

Upon hearing this, Silver Gong’s eyebrows rose up and his eyes suddenly sharpened as he took off the saber at the back of his waist and drew it towards Xu Qi’an’s cheek.

At the sound of breaking air, Xu Qi’an’s body leaned back a bit, avoiding the ferocious swipe in a split second.

Seemingly not expecting Xu Qi’an to be able to dodge, the silver gong was stunned and laughed sardonically, “How dare you dodge.”

“My lord, my lord… “Song Tingfeng hurriedly inserted himself between the two men, shyly, smiling apologetically, “Yes, we are late, my lord, don’t be angry, delaying the main event, there is still a good job waiting for you.”

He could have mentioned the plagiarism.

Who knew that the silver gong didn’t give any face at all, lifting his foot and kicking Song Tingfeng in the small of the back, sending him flying out, struggling a bit and failing to get up.

He’s targeting me …. But I have not offended him …. Anger welled up in Xu Qi’an’s heart, and he subconsciously pressed down on the hilt of his knife.

Silver Gong narrowed his eyes and laughed instead of being angry, drawing another knife sheath over, sneering, “What, want to draw a knife, do you deserve it.”

Draw a knife and I am dead …. Xu Qi An raised his hand to block a few times, and his arm bones were smacked with a fiery pain.

It’s a little embarrassing with so many people watching.

Seeing Xu Qi’an concede, the silver gong pumped a few more times and sneered, “Get the hell inside.”

The three Xu Qi’ans made the team.

Next, one after another, another gong arrived, and that silver gong did not care, letting them enter the ranks.

Seeing this scene, Xu Qi’an was all but certain that this silver gong was targeting him, wondering if he hadn’t offended him.

“You’re lucky you didn’t draw your knife just now, or you’d be done for.” Someone behind him said.

Xu Qi’an twisted his head to look at it, it was the tongluo that he had been drinking flower wine with last night.

“I’m not that stupid, it’s a big sin to draw a knife on a silver gong.” He said.

The gong nodded and whispered, “His surname is Zhu, and he is the youngest silver gong in the court.”

Xu Qi’an said glumly, “I don’t know him.”

Causeway let out a “Hey”, “His father’s name is Zhu too.”

When Xu Qimin said that this was not nonsense, he heard Zhu Guangxiao beside him whisper, “Zhu Jinluo?”

The gong who drank the flower wine gave a “hmmm” and added: “He is the youngest silver gong, and also the most favored young talent in our capital court, well, before Xu Qi’an appeared.

“The day before yesterday, I drank with the gong under his hand, and heard him say that Zhu Yinluo disliked you very much, and said more than once that you were nothing but a district gong ….”

At that moment, Zhu Yinluo swept his eyes sharply at the crowd, and the gong immediately silenced his voice.
