Chapter 231 Pensions (concluded)

Wei Yuan had stood in the officialdom for decades, and he was able to discern the slightest change in the atmosphere.

Even though Emperor Yuan Jing only glanced at him as he entered, and even though the group of ministers had already withdrawn their gazes at this point, Wei Yuan knew that this small court meeting was mostly related to himself.

The spring festival had just ended, and the results of the Beijing inspection would be out in a few days. During this time, the inspection lists have been coming in from the mandarins of each state, just waiting for Emperor Yuan Jing’s broad brush.

And the results of the expedition within the capital have been gradually taking shape under the auspices of the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue.

The molding of this inspection list, the process is accompanied by what kind of bloodshed, the hall of the princes, Yuan Jing Emperor know very well. Categorically will not at this moment, push to start over.

Since it’s not a matter of Beijing’s investigation, what other important matters will be involved in it?

Wei Yuan’s mind raced as two words came to mind – Yunzhou!

Eight hundred miles of expedited intelligence from Yunzhou …… It seems that Yunzhou has really mutinied, and with the ability of Jiang Ruzhong and Yang Yan, and with the efforts and padding that Zhang Xingying had previously done, Yunzhou can t be in chaos ….. Wei Yuan mused.

After waiting for another quarter of an hour, the ministers who were qualified to participate in the small pilgrimage arrived one after another.

Emperor Yuan Jing looked down at the ministers in the hall and said, “This morning, there was an eight hundred mile expedited document from Yunzhou, and there has been a result in the Yunzhou case. The person who colluded with the Witch God Cult, fostered mountain bandits, and transported military supplies is Yunzhou Prefect Song Changsu.”

As if a bomb had crashed down, the ministers exploded in horror. Then, there were uncontrollable murmurs and angry rebukes.

However, some of them are not surprised, such as the King’s Party.

Expedited documents must first pass through the hands of the Cabinet, which will be forwarded to the Chief Secretary, who will be responsible for taking the Emperor’s orders and communicating them to the lower levels.

Is specialized for the emperor to survey and close the official documents, reported to the four sides of the subjects of the real sealing of the words, Chen feelings and complaints and military intelligence, disaster and other matters of the Yamen.

The Cabinet is the territory of the Chief Minister Wang, the Cabinet, of course, does not have the right to privately open the expedited documents, but the emperor reads, the first thing to do is to inform the Cabinet of the content of the document, and then the meeting.

So the King’s Party got first-hand information.

“Silence!”

The great companion beside Emperor Yuan Jing, shouted several times before silencing the ministers.

“The ministers will listen to it.” Emperor Yuan Jing said.

The big eunuch with white hair and wearing a python robe looked at the eunuch in the corner and nodded slightly.

The eunuch lifted his step forward, unfolded the paperwork in his hand, and read aloud:

“I, Zhang Xingying, bow before you:

The Yunzhou case was concluded on January 24th, and the traitors Song Changfu, Yang Yu, and Chen Ming …… thirty-four were all put to death.”

A string of names, all officials of rank.

“Now that Yunzhou has been returned to rule, the great case has been closed. This is the result of the court’s efforts to educate and civilize the people, and of Your Majesty’s generous virtue and divine wisdom.

“Jin Gong Jiang Luzhong, all the way to protect the minister, conscientious …..

“The golden gong Yang Yan, risking a hundred deaths, led the army to fight the rebels, and was meritorious in pacifying the rebellion, so that the rebels were unable to burn, kill, pillage, and poison the people of Yunzhou, and was highly meritorious. ….

“Silver gong Zhao Bin, Tang Shanxu, Li Yun, three people for the protection of the micro minister, died in the hands of the Witch God Cult Dream Witch, death is also no regrets, the loyalty of his heart, the spirit of the Peerage, the micro minister deplored to the extent of …..”

“Causeway Song Tingfeng, Zhu Guangxiao, in the process of investigating the case repeatedly contribute to help Xu Qi’an find evidence, in order to protect the evidence, at the expense of feeding the ghosts, to the point of qi and blood loss …… eliminate the rebels in the process of the first soldier, not afraid of life and death, the heart of the country is touching ….. “

From the golden gongs to the bronze gongs, Inspector Zhang tabulated each and every one of them, writing in extreme detail and with great care.

Wei Yuan listened in silence, even when he heard that the three silver gongs had been martyred, this big powerful minister who was happy and angry was always expressionless and showed no emotion.

“Causeway Xu Qi’an, in the process of going south, break the iron ore smuggling case, this matter before the table has been set, no longer detailed. But in the case of Yunzhou, Xu Qi’an, with the strength of one person, deciphered all kinds of clues, to find evidence of crime ….. It was also he who detected the conspiracy of Song Changfu and reversed the case so that the minister did not wrongly blame the loyal and conscientious.

“After the incident, Song Changfu jumped over the wall and gathered rebels to close the city gates and surrounded and killed the Minister at the Minister’s office. When I was in a desperate situation, Xu Qi’an fought with hundreds of rebels and chopped off more than two hundred of the enemy, and eventually died of exhaustion.

“I am bold enough to ask for a posthumous title.

“I am in Yunzhou, and I hope to be able to face the saint as soon as possible. Zhang Xingying bowed his head again.”

After reading, the eunuch gathered the long folded document and retreated.

Emperor Yuan Jing swept a glance at the group of ministers who couldn’t stop clamoring and mingling, and his gaze finally landed on Wei Yuan.

This eunuch who carries a legend and is regarded as the strongest great power hand of Dafeng in 500 years; this left governor of the five armies who won the Battle of Shanhaiguan and overpowered the neighboring countries; and this Wei eunuch who commanded the night watchmen and supervised the hundred officials, and who was notorious for his …..

At this moment, it was actually distracted at the pilgrimage.

“What do you all think of the matter Zhang Xingying has been reporting?” Emperor Yuan Jing asked, “Wei Yuan, Wei Yuan, Wei Yuan ….”

Shouted three times in a row, one louder than the other.

Wei Yuan was shaken, seemingly startled. Only then did he react with a soft “Huh?” Let out a sound.

The corner of Emperor Yuan Jing’s mouth picked up, “Wei Aiqing seems to be in poor spirits, Zhang Xingying stifled the Yunzhou rebellion in the cradle, this is also your credit, could it be that Wei Aiqing is not happy?”

Wei Yuan did not answer.

In the Ministry of Ceremonies, the left capital minister jumped out to rebuke, “Wei Yuan, His Majesty is asking you.”

Wei Yuan still didn’t answer.

“Just!” Emperor Yuan Jing was in a good mood, waving his hand, discussing the matter of the folding with the ministers, and rewarding a cadre of night watchmen for their achievements.

When it came to Xu Qi’an, there was a disagreement over posthumous titles, with a small number of ministers in favor of granting titles. Many more said it was inappropriate.

In fact, there is nothing wrong, the title is not an official position, it is a “reward” for those who have meritorious service, it is the means of the court to attract people’s hearts.

In Xu Qi’an’s case, it belongs to the category of being knighted after death and is only a posthumous honor.

But Xu Qi’an is Wei Yuan’s beloved, and it is the instinct of civil ministers to raise the bar with Wei Yuan, and secondly, Xu Qi’an has made too many enemies. From the tax and silver case to the Sangpo case, and then from the case of the Pingyang County Lord to the Yunzhou case.

Because of him, the Minister of the Household of the Wang Party fell; the Liang Party was abolished; the Minister of Rites of the Wang Party fell; and the Minister of Works of the Qi Party had his nine clans executed …..

The number of people who hated him were too numerous to count, and were unwilling to give him even the honor behind him.

Among them, the Secretary of the Da Lisi and the Minister of Rites, who are also members of the Qi Party, were the most agitated, and made generous speeches, pointing out the shortcomings, in short:

Xu Qi’an doesn’t deserve it.

Although the Secretary of the Da Lisi was a member of the Qi Party, the Secretary of the Ministry of Public Works, who colluded with the Witch God Cult, had no evidence to indicate that the Secretary of the Da Lisi also colluded with the Witch God Cult, and he was able to stay out of the way.

The so-called parties are just political allies, not relatives and family members.

The Minister of Rites is a member of the Wang Party, his top boss was screwed by Xu Qi An in the Sang Po case, and the most hateful thing is that the new Minister of Rites is a member of Wei Yuan.

The attitude of the group of ministers made Emperor Yuan Jing a little hesitant, from his point of view, the martyrdom of that gong who always looked bad was certainly not enough to make the titular Emperor excited and ecstatic, but to be honest, it was quite soothing.

It’s like shooing away buzzing flies.

However, as for the granting of titles, Emperor Yuan Jing was in favor of it. Because Xu Qi’an had indeed accomplished great feats, the knighthood would emphasize his clear distinction between reward and punishment.

Emperor Yuan Jing was most tolerant of the dead.

But if the majority of his ministers disagreed, then Emperor Yuan Jing would not stick to his guns.

Emperor Yuan Jing was about to announce the end of the conversation and dismiss Zhang Xingying’s suggestion when he suddenly saw Wei Yuan step forward.

The big eunuch walked straight towards the Minister of Rites, raised his hand, and “Pah!” A sound.

The resounding slap resounded through the imperial study, instantly overpowering the arguing voices of the ministers, and an astonished gaze looked over.

“Pop!”

The Secretary of the Da Lisi also received a slap and stumbled and fell, his crown of hair falling off and his hair falling out.

“Wow ….”

Surprised stares turned into clamor, and the imperial study exploded.

In the history of the Great Feng, there were quite a few instances of short-tempered ministers who had fought with their hands above the courtroom. Not to mention the fact that this was the Imperial Study Room.

But the fact that the hitter was Wei Yuan makes it absurdly bizarre.

In the hearts of the ministers, Wei Yuan to eunuch body in charge of the night watchman Yamen, Ducha Academy, stealing a high position, the body of the label has: sinister and cunning, darkness and poisonous, cunning and deep, and good at strategy, and so on.

But definitely not “impulsive and reckless”, so easy to fall into the hands of others, would have been played to death.

What is Wei Yuan plotting again? On purpose?

The court hall of all the public thought floating, professional spitfire to give the matter do not have to think so much, the six ministries of several “left to give the matter” ran out in fear, shouting:

“Your Majesty, Wei Yuan beat people in the hall, without regard for His Majesty and without regard for the laws of the land, I ask Your Majesty to decree that this fang be beheaded.”

The governor doesn’t have to think so much, just catch the handle and die.

Immediately, a number of ministers seconded the motion.

For the minister’s complaint, Wei Yuan did not care in the slightest, bowed, said in a deep voice: “Your Majesty, the Qi party is not yet finished, although the Ministry of Public Works has been disposed of, but the same party is still hibernating in the courtroom. In the Sang Po case, the Minister of Rites is still colluding with the demon race, and his accomplices are also still alive.

“Coinciding with the Beijing inspection, the micro-minister proposes that the inspection be postponed until all the water has settled, and then a decision will be made.”

What do you mean?

The ministers were creeped out, incredulously looking at Wei Yuan, the meaning of the words, clearly want to delay the Beijing inspection, he still wants to make things?

Since the beginning of the year, the capital officialdom has experienced the wind hibernation, careful watching, as well as the middle of the year to the end of the year of the collusion and everyone’s self-protection, has long been exhausted.

Even the most belligerent conspirators think about ending Kyocha early and recuperating.

This guy Wei Yuan, he even wants to continue the struggle?

He’s, he’s crazy?

Even Chief Minister Wang Zhenwen couldn’t help but turn his head sideways, scrutinizing Wei Yuan in consternation. Wei Qingyi’s face was expressionless, not much different from usual.

As an old rival, Chief Wang realized that he was actually unable to speculate on Wei Yuan’s intentions at this moment.

A moment of anger?

No, how could Wei Yuan be swayed by emotions. Besides, where did the qi come from?

Emperor Yuan Jing stared at Wei Yuan, and after looking at him for a moment, he suddenly realized that the gong named Xu Qi’an had an extraordinary status in Wei Yuan’s heart.

He pressed his hand, waiting for the ministers to quiet down, and slowly said: ”Such an intricate and complicated mystery case, Xu Qi’an solved it in ten months, it’s really godlike.

“The martyrdom of such a talent is a loss to our court. Let’s do as Zhang Xingying suggested.

“Wei Yuan assaulted a court official in the courtroom, and was punished for one year for his lawlessness. As for the matter of Beijing inspection, according to the ancestral system, there is no need to change.”

The ministers were not surprised by Emperor Yuan Jing’s light punishment, and despite the disappointment in their hearts, they knew that it was impossible to bring down the Grand Eunuch in such a matter.

With Wei Yuan’s importance, His Majesty’s tolerance for him was extremely high, and beating up a court official once or twice and receiving some punishment was already the limit.

To their surprise, Wei Yuan actually stopped dwelling on the matter of the Jingcha and kept his mouth shut.

This made the ministers realize that the so-called delay of the Beijing inspection was just an excuse for Wei Yuan to vent his anger.

Compared to the not-so-light or not-so-heavy punishment, Wei Yuan’s reason for losing his temper made the ministers extremely concerned. It turned out that the impeccable Wei Eunuch also had an existence that made him care and made him lose his temper?

Subsequently, a heated discussion ensued among many parties regarding Xu Qi’an’s posthumous knighthood.

After some tug of war, Xu Qi’an’s title was finalized: son of Changle County.

Viscount!

It is not hereditary.

……..

The small court meeting ended, the ministers dispersed, Wei Yuan walked forward without saying a word, I don’t know if it was deliberate or not, he walked at an extremely fast pace, walking in front of the group of ministers, not letting anyone see his complexion.

“Righteous Father.”

Nangong Qianrou greeted him and was about to ask about the content of the small court meeting and about the eight hundred mile expedited paperwork, but he suddenly froze.

Wei Yuan’s clearly no expression, but let a person easily read out the sadness, that pair of eyes precipitated by the years to wash out the vicissitudes of life, there is actually a deep depression.

Without greeting, without even nodding, Wei Yuan walked in silence, brushed past Nangong Qianru in silence, and continued on in silence.

The hem of the green robe, gently shaking. The back shadow is sluggish and lonely.

What happened ….. Nangong Qianruo froze, he looked at the ministers walking behind him, resisted the idea of testing, and took big steps to follow Wei Yuan.

Wheels clattering, return to the night watchman Yamen on the road, Nangong Qianru endured all the way, near the Yamen, finally exported asked:

“Righteous Father, what happened?”

In the carriage, Wei Yuan’s low, hoarse voice came, “Xu Qi’an was martyred in the line of duty.”

This ….. Nangong Qianrou’s complexion froze.

He twisted his head and quietly surveyed the carriage, unconsciously slowing down his movements despite the door being in the way for fear of being discovered by Wei Yuan.

The entire Shiftman Yamen knew that Wei Gong valued Xu Qi’an, but only Nangong Qianlou and Yang Yan knew that more than valuing him, his righteous father held great expectations for Xu Qi’an, like a craftsman discovering a perfect diamond in the rough.

He loved him so much that he wanted to carve him into a jade that was unrivaled in the world and shocked the world on the day the jade was completed.

Although it was not explicitly stated, Nangong Qianlou knew clearly in her heart that this anticipation and importance had already outweighed him, the righteous son, by many, many times.

Now that Xu Qi An has been martyred in the line of duty, the mood of the righteous father can be imagined ….. Nangong Qianru sighed in her heart.

He had thought that he would be secretly happy that Xu Qi’an’s appearance had made him jealous and unbalanced his heart, thinking countless times that it would have been better if that guy had never appeared.

The righteous father is still most concerned about me.

Now heard the news of Xu Qi’an’s death, Nangong Qianrou did not have half a happy mood, but instead, disappointed, empty in the heart.

At this time, the reins in his hand suddenly fell off, Nangong Qianruo was taken aback, only to realize that the reins in his palm, at some point was pinched into pieces by him.

Returning to the Yamen, Nangong Qianlou entered the Haoqi Building along with Wei Yuan, ascending to the seventh floor, Wei Yuan paused at the mouth of the tea room and said in a low voice:

“You go out first, I want to be alone for a while.”

Nangong Qianlou wanted to say something, bowed and retreated, but did not leave, but waited outside the tea room.

The tea room is quiet and spacious with afternoon sunlight pouring over the lookout. ,,

Wei Yuan flipped through the official documents as usual, as if nothing had happened, he was still the same big eunuch who did not show his joy and anger.

The sun was moving west, and the dusk sun was an orange-red color, illuminating the clouds in the west as if they were burning.

Wei Yuan’s official documents in his hand, a page has not been turned over, he sat withered for two and a half hours.

Closing the official document and pinching his brow, Wei Yuan called out, “Qian Rou.”

“Righteous father ……” Nangong Qianrou sniffed in, her delicate pretty face covered with worry.

“Gather all the golden gongs that are in the courthouse.” Wei Yuan said.

Nangong Qianlou retreated, and in a short time, returned with six golden gongs.

At this moment, Wei Yuan stood in the center of the tea room with his hands folded, his wordless gaze scrutinizing the golden gong.

“Wei Gong.” The golden gongs clasped their fists.

Wei Yuan nodded slightly and slowly said, “Send out orders to all the secret agents scattered outside to infiltrate the northeastern countries. Before the beginning of summer, this seat will obtain the Witch God Cult’s southwestern border layout map at all costs.”

The golden gong Zhang Kaitai was taken aback, “Wei Gong ….”

The other gongs were equally surprised.

Wei Yuan said indifferently, “After the fall harvest, this seat will fight the Witch God Cult.”

Sure enough …. A few golden gongs carefully observed Wei Yuan, and finally noticed the subtle wrongness of this big eunuch, the previous Wei Gong, always a wise pearl in the transcendent posture, with a quietness that matches the status and position.

But today’s Wei Gong is different from the past days, and the eyes that are full of vicissitudes of life are burning with sharp sharpness and fighting spirit.

This kind of fighting spirit and determination was only found during the Battle of Shanhaiguan back in the day.

The golden gongs bowed their heads in unison and used the formal reply, “I respectfully submit to your orders.”

Several Golden Gongs excused themselves and exited the Haoqi Building, and one of them frowned, “I’m afraid the imperial court won’t start the war lightly.”

Nangong Qianlou sneered, the court does not lightly start the war, but the Witch God Church, the northeastern countries will. As long as the initiative to send confidential information through secret channels, there is no fear that the Witch God Church will not take the bait.

When the border is infested, His Majesty and the courtiers will not turn a blind eye.

With Righteous Father’s means, if he wants to fight the Witch God Cult, it only depends on whether he is willing to fight or not, not whether His Majesty wants to fight or not.

Zhang Kai Tai looked at Nangong Qian Rou and asked with a frown, “Did something happen in the courtroom today? Duke Wei is somewhat abnormal.”

Nangong Qianru nodded: “This morning there was an eight hundred mile expedited, Yunzhou Zhang Xingying handed back. As righteous father expected, Yunzhou has indeed mutinied.”

After a pause, he swept over the crowd of golden gongs and unconsciously said in a deep voice, “Xu Qi’an was martyred in the line of duty.”

The crowd of Golden Gongs raised their heads violently and looked towards the Haoqi Building.

……..

At this moment, Xu Qi’an was still floating on the water.

The one who took Liang Youping is not the King of Forcing?

Unspeakable horror rose in Xu Qi’an’s heart, just like taking a selfie in an abandoned mansion, taking the photo home and washing it out, and then realizing that there was a cloaked, white-clad female ghost standing behind her.

The kind of thrill that calls for chills down the spine and numbness in the scalp.

“Liang Youping really wasn’t taken by you?” Xu Qi’an begged for confirmation.

“When have I, Yang Qianyi, ever told a lie.” The Forced King said indifferently.

His teacher had given him the task of secretly watching over Xu Qi’an, and even though King Forcing didn’t know why his teacher had given him such an order, he had always been a disciple who followed the rules.

Doing things reliably!

If you promise to watch over Xu Qi’an, you will definitely not do anything extra.

Yunzhou case has nothing to do with him, solving the case or not, is the governor’s business. Later Xu Qi’an threw himself into the net, he had to step in to help, exposing himself.

Roll, you just lied to me that you didn t peek at the letter ….. If not for the fact that she really wasn’t in the mood, Xu Qi’an would have swollen the pusher king’s face on the spot.

Liang Youping wasn’t taken by Yang Qianyi? If that’s the case, the whole case has to be pushed back to start over ….. Could it be that the mastermind behind this is not Song Changsu, but someone else, like Yang Chuannan?

The case in Yunzhou was originally just a case of the dark son Zhou Min finding out that Yang Chuannan had embezzled military supplies and fostered mountain bandits ….. It wasn’t until I made the mistake of discovering that the Qi Party was colluding with the Witch God Cult that it led to the subsequent governor entering Yunzhou to investigate the case.

Could the truth be in this case:

Yang Chuannan realized that his plot was exposed by the dark son of the man who beat the night watchman, so he let the dream witch kill Zhou Min to silence him, and cracked the secret code to find out the evidence of guilt …… and then set up this bitter trick, and the point of flipping is Liang Youping.

He first deliberately let Liang Youping wait for me in the dog meat store, and then borrowed Li Miaozhen to break Liang Youping’s identity to draw my attention ….. Then he had someone send Liang Youping to Governor Zhang, using this reversal to make us completely believe that the mastermind behind the scene was Song Changsu, and got away with it himself?

Liang Youping was indeed shielded from qi at that time, and the SZT’s Qi Surveying Technique was unable to tell whether or not he was lying.

Xu Qi’an tasted it for a long time and dismissed the speculation for the following three reasons:

One, there’s no need to be so troublesome. Going to the trouble of making the case so complicated will only expose more cracks, and the simpler the case, the harder it is to solve. As the saying goes, the weirder the weapon, the faster it dies. The case is the same reason.

As long as Yang Chuannan destroys the evidence, even if everyone thinks he did it, Governor Zhang can’t move a second-ranked commander-in-chief without evidence.

It’s the safest way to go.

Secondly, the main reason why Governor Zhang and the others, including Xu Qi’an, were convinced by what Liang Youping said was because they all thought that the person who had come to their aid was Yang Qianliang.

Looking back at the case, when Liang Youping was sent to the stagecoach station, Governor Zhang and others were skeptical about Liang Youping’s confession. At that time, Governor Zhang’s response was to first apprehend Song Changsu and confront Liang Youping.

As a result, Song Changsu “committed suicide”, followed by the mutiny of the Yunzhou armies. The events were so closely connected that there was no time to verify the truth of the case.

It wasn’t until Yang Qianyi’s appearance that the crowd realized that the warlock was Yang Qianyi, and it made sense.

So Liang Youping’s “throwing himself into the net” has a reasonable explanation.

Nay, after Yang Qianyi helped Jiang Luchong kill the Dream Witch, he immediately left, and the subsequent verification could not be carried out.

Xu Qi’an listed this as a reason because it was impossible for Yang Chuannan to know that Yang Qianyi came to Yunzhou. Then this weirdly appearing warlock was an unexplainable suspicion in the minds of Inspector Zhang and the others.

Even though he could have obliterated Governor Zhang with the ensuing mutiny, but since he could have obliterated Governor Zhang and the others, what was the point of getting all fancy about it?

Instead, it was Dream Witch’s argument that made sense, that the reason for holding back was to push Yang Chuannan to take the blame until things fell apart and he had to carry out his final plan – to kill to silence.

Three, if Yang Chuannan was behind it, the group of rebels who followed him to defect would have given him up long ago. Would those rebels in the Yunzhou officialdom not know which boss they followed?

This is a revolt, not a kooky gangster.

“The mastermind behind this should undoubtedly be Song Changsu, but what’s with that warlock who appeared out of nowhere?”

“Wild warlocks can cultivate to this realm? You have to know that the Warlock system has only been around for about six hundred years, unlike the Wushu and other systems that have been around for a long time and have a large number of wild cultivators.”

“And even systems such as Confucianism, where the origins have been passed down, are still very strict in their control of the cultivation method, and only the fatherless (beyond the grade) wushu are all over the place, which is yet another reason for the major systems to look down on the wushu, isn’t it?”

“And why is that warlock, who doesn’t know his roots, helping me? What purpose does he have?”

Xu Qi’an suddenly thought of one thing, that is, could the warlock in the tax silver case, the warlock who refined the fake silver and the warlock in the Yunzhou case be the same person, or, the same power?

If so, help me this option can be eliminated ….. These bastards, they almost caused me to be exiled for thousands of miles and caused Uncle Two to be beheaded …. Xu Qi’an pinched his brow with a headache.

Szeto, it’s not that simple.

“Ahem…” coughed Xu Qi’an, “There’s something I need to tell Senior Brother Yang.”

“Say.”

Xu Qi’an then told Yang Qianliang about the existence of the nameless magician, originally, and then asked, “Are we hiding any secrets in the Sitian Supervisor?”

“We, the Divine Constabulary?” Yang Qianliang, who had his back turned, asked rhetorically.

“Miss Caiwei is going to marry me sooner or later anyway.”

“Heh.” Yang Qianyi mocked, then, in a serious tone, he said, “It’s true that the Sitian Supervisor has some secrets, such as the fact that teacher never talks about his master ancestor, but I know in my heart that teacher once killed his master.”

Regicide …. Xu Qi’an recalled the previous article, remembering the information related to that Primordial Supervisor in the investigation of the Sang Po case.

The first Supervisor was the one who supported the old royal family five hundred years ago, the original King of Pinghai, who later became the current Supervisor after Emperor Wuzong usurped the throne.

Information about the first superintendent was erased from history.

It was wiped clean, and even female schoolmasters like Princess Huaiqing, who could practice history, couldn’t find a single drop of information, or it was a sideways breakthrough through the preaching of the Buddhist sect five hundred years ago.

The original Supervisor Zheng really regicide, at first it was just a guess, now the actual hammer …. Xu Qi’an said, “What does Senior Brother Yang mean, this warlock that appeared in Yunzhou is related to the first generation of Supervisor Zheng?”

Yang Qianyi shook his head, “This I don’t know, don’t ask so much la, the warlock system you don’t understand, even for a strange man like me who is hard to come by in this world, I don’t know what the first and second grade warlocks are called.”

Xu Qi’an wasn’t a little munchkin anymore, and usually, this situation meant that knowing the information about the first and second grade meant that one could know a lot of the secrets of the warlock system, which could not be made known to outsiders.

“Then do you know the rank of a warlock who can shield his breath? Can you do it, Senior Brother Yang?” Xu Qi’an tried unwillingly.

“This can be said with you,” Yang Qianyi said, “If you shield qi numbers, normal warlocks can do it, it’s not difficult. To be able to shield qi for others, one must be above the sixth rank.

“But really, as you said, that Liang Youping can shield the divination and spell killing of a fourth grade dream witch, only one grade in the warlocks can do that, what Liang Youping was shielded from was not qi, but fate, heaven’s chance.”

After a pause, he said, “Third ranked warlock, Tian Ji Master.”

…. Third Grade? That warlock in the Yunzhou case was a third rank? Xu Qi’an was confused for a moment, feeling like his brain wasn’t enough.

The Yunzhou case surprisingly involves a third grade warlock!

If this is the case, the fourth grade array master Yang Qianyi certainly can t do it, damn it, if I knew such important information earlier, I ….. I will pretend to know nothing.

Xu Qimin said that the machinations of a Third Grade Warlock could not be broken even if one saw through them.

It’s not a wimp, it’s an adult mindset.

To be mutually facetious.

“You remember to keep it a secret, don’t spread it out, especially the matter of teacher regicide.” Yang Qianyi added after a pause:

“It’s not that I’m afraid of the teacher, I just think that, at his age, he can’t be a late bloomer. I have to give him some decency as a human being.”

The more you explain, the more you show that you have a weak heart. ….. How would I dare to talk nonsense, the Supervisor can pinch me to death with a single finger …… Xu Qi’an nodded, agreeing, “I also think we should give the Supervisor a few moments of decency.”

Yang Qianyi smiled, “You really are an interesting man, just like me.”

The history of the Heavenly Monarch was not long, and many things were actually very good to look into, unlike the Dao Zun and the Confucian Sage, where the latter was a character from thousands of years ago, and the former was simply detached from the historical records.

Xu Qi’an intends to return to the capital after the secret investigation of the Divisional Superintendent, by the way, to check Su Su’s family affairs, and by no means greedy for people’s bodies, people do not have a body.

“Gollum Gollum ….”

Xu Qi’an’s stomach got a little hungry, and he whirled out of the coffin, “I’ll go find something to eat.”

Yang Qianyi asked, “Then how are you going to explain the fact that you came back from the dead?”

Xu Qi’an suddenly froze, yes, how could he explain about coming back from the dead.

The bigwigs in the capital are no pushovers, and he’s no longer the little speedster he was in Changle County back in the day, oh, he’s still a little speedster this year.

It’s the little speedster from back in the day.

Xu Qi’an silently lay back into the coffin, “I’ll stay out of sight for now, wait until we get to the capital, then ask my father for his opinion. Master Yang, I’ll be counting on you for the meals.”

Yang Qianyi nodded her head, indicating that there was no problem, and then asked in surprise, “Didn’t you have both parents die since you were young and were raised by your second uncle?”

“Actually, I’m Wei Yuan’s illegitimate son la.”

“What?!” Yang Qianyi was shocked.

Xu Qi’an is Wei Yuan’s illegitimate son. Wei Yuan actually has an illegitimate son?

…….

Inner City, Xu Mansion.

The next morning, Nangong Qianlou brought two gongs and knocked on the door of the Xu Mansion.

In fact, the side door was already open, but with his status as a golden gong, he naturally had to use the center door.

Old Zhang, the concierge, opened the center door, and seeing the three watchmen, he hurriedly bowed his head and said, “What can I do for you, several lords.”

Because Oro was a night watchman, he had some knowledge of the rank and poor uniforms of night watchmen.

This woman night watchman had a golden gong embroidered on her chest, and at a glance, her status was higher than that of the dalang.

At this time, the color of the sky has just dawned, Nangong Qianruo swept the eyes of the old Zhang, his eyes looked towards the mansion, said, “Royal Sword Guards Hundred Household Xu Pingzhi, can be in the mansion?”

He was ordered by his righteous father to give Xu Qi Ansong a pension of three hundred taels of grain silver.

That’s all a gong is worth, rules are rules.

But Nangong Qianrou knows that in the future, the dividends that the Xu family can eat, is absolutely incalculable. For example, the official position of the hundred households of the Imperial Sword Guards can be brought up a little further.

That Cloud Deer Academy scholar who was about to participate in the spring exam, his future career path would not be to be sent to a remote outer county.
