Chapter 96 – Master Time Manager

There is a refreshing fragrance in the room, at first smell like flowers, carefully taste, and feel more advanced than flowers, smell for a long time, people will enter a very comfortable state, and can not wait to sleep on a beautiful sleep, all the fatigue clear.

This was the unique body fragrance of Mu Nanjia, which contained a slight immortal tree spirit energy that could make the living beings living beside her clear away fatigue and injuries and prolong their lives.

Xu Qi’an swept a glance at the woman lying on her side in the bed, not rushing to get into bed, circling around behind the screen to take a look at the bath tub filled with water, white chrysanthemums and red rose petals floating on the surface.

Apparently it was the bath water that Mu Nanjian had used when she bathed before going to bed.

It’s usually the next day.

He immediately took off his robe and boots and stepped into the tub, the water in the tub had long since cooled down, and it was more comfortable to be cold and refreshing instead, Xu Qi’an leaned towards the wall of the tub and looked up at the roof to empty his head, not thinking about anything.

After a small half hour, outside the screen, the brocade collapse came from Mu Nanjian’s irritated voice:

“Are you done washing.”

Xu Qi’an grunted as his gaze remained fixed on Liang Mu:

“Good, since you woke up a long time ago, why haven’t you come to serve husband to bathe, is there any family law in your eyes.”

“Husband?” Mu Nanjian sneered:

“What has it got to do with me if the woman you married in a palanquin with eight carriers is sleeping well in the next courtyard. In my case, you are just a treacherous latecomer.”

Xu Qi’an immediately changed his face, leapt out of the tub, scurried up the bed in a bitchy manner, and laughed:

“Aunt Mu, the latecomer has come to bed.”

Water damage is automatically evaporated during trotting.

“Get out!”

Mu Nan gardenia take him this kind of bitchy way no way, blanket a roll, ball himself into a chicken roll, the back of the head to him.

Another temper tantrum ……… Xu Qi an glanced at the thin quilt and threatened:

“Believe it or not I’ll poke you with a toothpick.”

Mun Nanjian ignored him.

Xu Qi’an forcibly squeezed in, Russia, the comforter came from the struggle to resist the movement, then, silk pajama pants pajamas thrown out, and then is the tender lotus-colored bibs.

Accompanied by mu nan jasmine’s muffled grunt, all movement stops, and after a few seconds, the carved bed began to send out “creak” sound.

The bedclothes shook gently, the thin covers rising and falling.

Unconsciously, an hour past, the room’s movement disappeared, return to calm, Mu Nanjian lying on the pillow, arms resting on the chin, squinting winks, face flushed as drunk.

Xu Qi’an lay on her back, kissing her neck, her fragrant shoulders, and her delicate satin back.

“Tsk, Aunt Mu’s body is so desirable.”

Xu Qi’an flirted.

Mu Nanjian lazily ignored him, enjoying the peace and quiet after the storm.

“When the Great Tribulation is over, let’s continue traveling through the Nine Regions,go to the Western Regions for a walk, or take a stroll in the Northeast.” Xu Qi’an whispered.

Mu Nanjia opened his eyes, opened his mouth, seemed to want to say something, finally just gently “hmm” sound.

After a while, she said:

“I’m homesick.”

She is referring to the small courtyard, once she had a period of ordinary women’s days, every day to cook cooking washing clothes worry, idle, will think of a certain stinking man why not come today.

If he doesn’t come again, I’ll buy arsenic and pour it into the vegetable soup and feed it to him.

“Wait for later!” Xu Qi’an said, sniffing the fresh scent of her hair:

“But you have to keep washing clothes, cooking, raising chickens and flowers.”

Munanjia said busily:

“That will come with two maids.”

“Good!” Xu Qi’an nodded.

She thought for a moment and added:

“Be ugly.”

“Good ……”

It was only then that Mounan Gardenia was at ease and grunted:

“I can’t wear the string all the time, but if I take it off, your aunt, your sister, your little friends, will be ashamed of themselves.”

If any other woman had said this, Xu Qi’an would have spat in her face.

But who made her a flower goddess.

Xu Qi’an rolled off her back, fumbled under the covers for a moment, felt out the soft pillow from between Mu Nanjian’s legs, looked at the water-stained soft pillow, and helplessly threw it away.

“Let’s sleep on the same pillow.”

He wrapped Mu Nanjian in his arms, a delicate, warm and soft petite body without a piece of silk clinging to him.

Time passed quietly, the east gradually showing the white of the fish, Xu Qi’an gently broke away Mu Nanjian’s lotus root arm around his neck.

The latter fluttered his eyelashes and awoke.

“I still have urgent business and have to go out immediately.” Xu Qi’an whispered.

Knowing that it had been an eventful time of late, Hanagami didn’t ask more questions, didn’t hold back, and retracted her hand.

Xu Qi’an put on his clothes and raised his hand, causing the large eyeballs on his wrist to light up as he disappeared into Mu Nanjian’s boudoir, and in the next moment, he arrived at the night concubine’s boudoir.

……….

It was dark before dawn.

The east has shown the white of the fish, outside the noon gate, a hundred officials gathered.

“What is the reason for the Cabinet’s order yesterday ordering the Leichu Two Prefecture Prefectural Government Department to move the hundred of the twenty-four counties along the border eastward?”

“But the countries of the Western Regions are going to go to war with my Great Feng?”

“No news has yet been received, and it is thought that today’s pilgrimage will be for this matter.”

“How can we go to war again? The court is not easy to pacify the chaos in Yunzhou, this time less than a year, which can withstand this kind of tossing, if His Majesty wants to move the sword, we must die to advise and discourage.”

The ministers gathered in twos and threes and whispered.

The eunuchs monitoring discipline not far away just ignored it.

Waiting for the court meeting, the hundred officials are not allowed to talk, even coughing and spitting will be recorded, except that this system slowly, it became a setup, as long as it is not loud and noisy, not fighting in public, eunuchs uniformly do not record.

Yesterday, the Cabinet issued a decree that most of the Beijing officials could not understand – the people of the twenty-four counties and counties along the border of the two states of Leichu moved eastward!

It’s just nonsense!

Although the two states of Lei Chu were vast and sparsely populated, because of their barrenness, there were almost no large counties, as well as prosperous county towns.

But the twenty-four counties combined still have a population of over a million.

Not to mention how these people will be resettled, the relocation alone is a huge project that will cost the people money.

The court has not been able to take a breath of fresh air, and the various lines of work are waiting to be revitalized, which can withstand this kind of tossing and making?

What is most distressing to some officials is that the Cabinet has actually agreed to it.

It is ridiculous that Wei Yuan is tactless, Zhao Shou is dim-witted, and Wang Zhenwen is a corpse!

Do you know how to rule the world and handle political affairs?

“Lord Yang is right, we need to admonish to the death!”

“How can you do such nonsense, death advice!”

The ministers spoke with a loud voice.

The members of the King’s Party and the Wei Party also could not understand the operation of the two chiefs and shook their heads in dismay.

In the sound of bells and drums, the dawning of the hour, the hundred officials from the two side doors of the noon gate to enter, across the Jinshui Bridge and the square, the princes into the Golden Palace, the rest of the courtiers are divided into the two sides of the Danhaji, or on the square.

After a few more minutes, the female emperor, who was dressed in a dragon robe with exquisite makeup, came with her hands on her back, ascended to the imperial seat, and sat high on the dragon chair.

“Your Majesty!”

After the start of the play, the Minister of the Household Department, who acted as the opening group of hands, came out of the line and made a bow:

“The twenty-four counties in the two states of Leichu are heavily populated, and the matter of relocating to the east is too laborious to be done. I ask Your Majesty to withdraw your order.”

Immediately afterward, the ministers of all ministries opened their mouths to advise and request Huaiqing to withdraw his order.

The reason for the existence of the Giver was to dissuade the Emperor from his misbehavior.

In the opinion of the ministers, the empress has done a great mistake, and if she wants to go down in history or make a name for herself, this is the best time to do so.

Seeing this, Liu Hong, the backbone of Wei Yuan, glanced at the looming Big Qing Yi in front of him, hesitated for a moment, and stepped out:

“Your Majesty, a few of the lords have a point.

“The Mahayana Buddhists will be arriving at the settlement set aside for them by the imperial court in a few days, more than 200,000 of them, eating and chewing on the money and food of the imperial court.

“Besides, the fall harvest is approaching, how can we move the people of those twenty-four counties eastward at this critical moment?”

Huaiqing listened quietly and said gently:

“The day before yesterday, the Buddha himself came to Leizhou, wanting to annex the Great Bong!”

A simple sentence, like a thunderbolt exploding in the ears of all the eunuchs in the hall, startled them to raise their heads, incredulously looking at the empress on top of the imperial seat.

Buddha himself came to Leizhou to annex Dabong?

The princes in the hall were all readers, and the cultivation of the lords was not too strong, but being in a high position, they understood very well what the superlative stood for.

It stands for invincibility!

Therefore, when they heard that the Buddha wanted to annex the Dharma, the ministers’ hearts were abruptly shocked and a suffocating fear welled up in them.

But then it felt wrong, if the Buddha wanted to target Da Feng, how could the empress still sit in the dragon chair like this and not panic?

The Cabinet will do nothing, not mobilize troops, but just move the border people east?

Without waiting too long for the princes to be confused, Huaiqing told them the answer:

“Xu Yinluo has been promoted to a half-step Martial God, and battled the Buddha in Leizhou the night before last, repelling him.

“However, although the Buddha has retreated, he will make a comeback at any time, and the battle between the Supremes and the half-step Martial Gods will destroy the heavens and the earth at every turn, so I will have to relocate the people of the twenty-four counties to the east.”

Another thunderclap.

The princes stared at Huaiqing in a daze for a long time before someone quietly pulled out their ears.

That Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, who was the first to come forward to advise Huaiqing, was confused:

“Your Majesty, I, I don’t understand.

“What, it’s a half-step Martial God?”

The word Wushin sounded unfamiliar, and it took a great deal of effort for Zhu Gong to remember that the pinnacle of the Wufu system was called Wushin.

The name was set by the Confucian Sage himself, except that the Confucian Sage has been dead for more than 1,200 years, and there has never been a Wushu God in the world.

Wei Yuan turned around and looked around at the males, his tone gentle and strong:

“You only need to know that a half-step Martial God can compete with a Super Grade, and can easily kill a First Grade Martial Artist.”

The head of the Minister of the Household was buzzing.

Xu Yinluo has become powerful to such an extent?

If I remember correctly, the State Master, no, when Luo Dao Shou crossed the tribulation, he and Xu Yinluo were both promoted to the first grade, and how long has passed since then, he has already grown into a character that can compete with the super grade …….. While the princes were shocked, their hearts were inexplicably much more peaceful.

The fear and panic brought about by Huaiqing’s words earlier dissipated quite a bit.

At least against a superpin, Da Bong wasn’t powerless.

Liu Hong said in a deep voice:

“Why did the Buddha strike at the court?”

The princes frowned, and this was something that puzzled them.

Since ancient times, for more than 1,200 years since the Confucian Sage, no matter how much the Great Fathers and the Witch God Cult fought, the Witch God always remained indifferent, as did the Buddha.

How could they step in and annex the Middle Kingdom for no reason.

In response, Wyvern had spoken early, his voice clear:

“Why does Liu Aiqing think that the Buddha Sect has suddenly broken with and supported the Central Plains? The annexation of the Central Plains was the Buddha’s intention, which was revealed as early as the Yunzhou Rebellion.

“With the defeat of Yunzhou and the promotion of Xu Yinluo and the State Master to the first rank, it’s only natural for the Buddha to take action himself.”

The princes nodded and asked no further questions.

Two countries at war don’t need to be willing you, annexation is the eternal truth.

Liu Hong’s question just now was just wondering why the Buddha, who had always shunned the world, suddenly came down in person.

Huaiqing asked as he swept his gaze across the hall:

“Can anyone else be different?”

All the ministries were silent, and the rest of the officials had even less reason to retort.

Wyvern nodded slightly and moved on to the second incident:

“Last night, Xu Yinluo personally went to Jing Shan City and forced the Witch God to take all the sorcerers in the three countries into his body for shelter. From now on, there will be no more sorcerers in Kyushu, and the three countries of Yan Jingkang will be taken over by my Dabong.”

Here comes the third thunderbolt!

If the Buddha’s personal appearance made your hearts heavy, then at this time, when you heard that the Witch God Cult had been “destroyed” and the three kingdoms had all been returned to the Great Dharma, your expressions were both ecstatic and dismayed.

The great fortune that fell from the sky almost smashed this group of readers into a fainting spell.

“Your Majesty, Your Majesty, really?!”

The one who opened his mouth was not a civil official, but King Yu, this Prince with slightly frosted temples had a strange flush welling up on his face, his lips trembling uncontrollably, his eyes glowing straight as he stared at Huai Qing.

The most excited were the royal clansmen.

Huaiqing nodded:

“In the Golden Palace, I will not have a play.”

Open up the frontier, open up the frontier …….. These four words were all that remained in King Yu’s head.

“Your Majesty has done what none of the ancestors have done, and the credit is in the thousand years ………”

One Prince wept with joy.

“This is also due to Xu Yinluo.” A county king on the side hurriedly corrected.

The Golden Palace stirred up, and the eunuchs exchanged words and were full of excitement.

The eunuch in charge of the seal shook the whip in his hand, and this time, did not sound the whip to reprimand.

Looking at the group of ministers who were in high emotions and excitement, Huaiqing had a smile on his lips:

“What do you gentlemen think, how should we take over the three kingdoms?”

……….

The civil and military officials were in a state of emotional turmoil, and the court was in a state of unprecedented fervor when Xu Qi’an began the third step of his time management.

In the boudoir, the night concubine on the bed immediately woke up with a start, opened her beautiful eyes, and after seeing that the uninvited guest was Xu Qi’an, she didn’t see any surprises and smiled charmingly:

“Hsu Lang!”

Xu Qi’an swept a glance at the belly bibs and blasphemous pants hanging on the screen, hey:

“You’d save me the trouble.”

The curtains shook, and the brocade collapse, which had been resting for months, began to moan in agony again.

After the rain had collected, the night concubine lay sweatily in Xu Qi’an’s arms, her head resting on his chest, smiling:

“What does Hsu Lang think of the Queen?”

Xu Qi’an asked rhetorically:

“Which way do you mean?”

Night Ji blinked her beautiful eyes, ”The Nine-Tailed Sky Fox clan likes strong men, especially women, who have no resistance to powerful men. Xu Lang is already a half-step Martial God, so I think the Empress has been salivating over you for a long time.

“Hasn’t Lang Xu ever thought of marrying Niang Niang over? Moreover, the seven younger sisters of the Night Maiden will also accompany her in marriage.”

Marry home for what? Is the family home disturbed ……… Xu Qi an spat in his heart.

Although that vixen’s waist and legs are long and her ass is perky, her face is like a flower, and her temperament is upside down, so she is a rare beauty, but the vixen’s character is really a headache.

If she went into the fish pond, then both Mu Nanjian and Luo Yuheng would have to join forces, both Huaiqing and Lin’an would have to do their best to release their former enmity, and Li Miaozhen would be in charge of playing the field, and together, they would fight against the fox spirit as well as the eight fox vixens under the fox spirit’s command.

Oh no, seven vixens.

One of them is dead, and as for Bai Ji, she’s still a child.

Xu Qi’an said righteously:

“I’m just an ordinary daoist relationship with the State Lord, and having you is enough.”

Nocturne had a look of regret on her face:

“It’s a pity, why don’t you reconsider Hsui-lang? Night Ji knows that if so many sisters were to accompany her in marriage, it would cause outsiders to criticize Xu Lang for being a womanizer and a womanizer, which would not be good for your reputation. But Night Ji won’t care.”

Hsu Lang shook his head:

“No need to say more.”

The Night Hime answered obediently, looking down for an instant with a satisfied smile.

The aroma of the tea in the house is catching up to Ling Yue’s room …….. Xu Qi’an spat at her, saw that the sky was already light and said in a deep voice:

“I’m going out to run some errands, so get some rest.”

……….

Xu Mansion, inner hall.

Wearing a pink dress, Xu Lingyue, with a big maid at her side, stepped into the hall with fine lotus steps, looked left and right for a while, and saw her mother fiddling with the potted plants on the high shelf.

Aunt Mu, mother’s bonded sister, was also nearby, muttering something.

Her younger sister, Suzume Xu, stared at the red oranges used for ornamental purposes by the door.

Lina, the boarder, crouched by another red-orange plant and glared.

Sister-in-law Lin An was wearing a high-necked, narrow-sleeved shirt and was talking to her aunt Ji Bai Qing who had come over for tea.

Xu Lingyue said in a thin voice:

“Mother, where is big brother?”

Seeing the room full of women looking over (except Xu Lingyue), Xu Lingyue busily explained:

“Big brother asked me to help make robes, and I created a new cloud pattern to ask him if he liked it, but when I got up early in the morning and went to the house to look for him, he wasn’t there.”

“He went out on an errand.” Lin An and Mu Nanjian spoke in unison.

The inner hall was quiet for a moment, and Ji Baiqing was busy laughing:

“Your elder brother is busy, perhaps he left before dawn, Your Highness Lin An, am I right.”

Prosper gave an expressionless “hmmm”.

The other ladies looked as normal, not knowing whether they had accepted Ji Baiqing’s explanation or pretended to.

At that moment, the elder brother’s concubine, Night Ji, led a maid and twisted her waist into the inner hall.

Xu Ling Yue swept her a glance and moved away without much expression, and suddenly, the tea master frowned, feeling that something was wrong.

She lifted her head back up and examined the night ji once more, then without moving, she swept a glance at her sister-in-law, Lin An, and Aunt Mu, finally realizing what was wrong:

They were both wearing turtlenecks.

This kind of conservative clothing is usually worn when you are out and about, and, although fall is coming, the afterglow is still here and it’s not the right time to wear these turtlenecks.

Dressing so tightly was never to keep out the cold, but rather to cover something unseemly.

Xu Lingyue how smart a person ah, a turn of thought, immediately eyes sank.

At this point, the aunt sighed:

“Is there going to be another war, or your big brother wouldn’t be so busy.”

……..

Lingbao Guan.

The busy big brother pressed his hands on the snow-white shoulders and gently kneaded them:

“State Master, my humble servant has been at sea for several months, and I no longer miss you at all times. I think you miss me just as much.”

Luo Yu Heng squinted his eyes, enjoying the massage, and faintly said:

“Don’t want to.”

She was disheveled, her feathered coat wrapped loosely around her body, and her face was flushed with a blush that hadn’t faded, so it was clear that her body wasn’t as hardened as her mouth.

Xu Qi’an held her at bay.

Luo Yu Heng had a queen complex, so Xu Qi An coaxed her, calling her a national master and calling herself humble, and she got to the cool spot.

The sweet talk that follows reaps wonders.

If Xu Qi’an shouted her bosom name, this day will not even give for him to touch.

“Have you thought about how to advance to Martial God.” Luo Yu Heng asked.

“It’s not easy to talk about.” Xu Qi’an sighed.

“When the Great Tribulation comes, if you can’t ascend to Martial God, I won’t accompany you to martyrdom. The heavens and the earth are vast, and you can go anywhere.” Luo Yu Heng said in a clear and cold voice.

She sounded like the “I don’t like duals” that had been repeated countless times in the past.

“Make yourself at home, the State Master’s thoughts, how can my humble servant sway them.” Xu Qi’an readily accepted good advice.

Luo Yu Heng gave a satisfied “hmm”, thought for a moment, and said in a calm tone:

“Within three months, I’m going to be promoted to first grade intermediate.”

Her face plain white and cold, a little red colorful vermilion in the center of the eyebrow, hair bun slightly loose, wearing a feathered robe, this look like a fairy like a colorful girl, seductive very much.

Xu Qi’an picked up on her hint and said in a deep voice:

“My humble servant will do everything in his power to help the State Master make a breakthrough.”

Saint son ah, I understand your suffering, time is no longer enough to manage …….. Xu Qi’an picked her up in a cross body and walked towards the big bed.

He finally understood how difficult it was for the Holy Son.

…….

Leizhou, Panshan County!

After a long trek through the elements, the first group of Mahayana Buddhists finally arrived at their destination.

Churai was among the first Mahayana Buddhist group to arrive.

The leader of the group was the young monk Jinsi.

What kind of place will the Central Court put us in?

This is the greatest concern in the heart of every Mahayana Buddhist along the way.

…….
