Chapter 231

231 Number two’s question_1

In this era, the method of bearing the spineless loquat could definitely be called a secret technique.

However, for Xu Qi ‘an, who had been studying biology in junior high school, this was just a basic principle. He even knew that poor plants wanted to carry on their family line, so they had to ask Bee, their neighbor, to help them plant it.

The scene suddenly became a little stiff. Xu Qi ‘an’s words caught the officials by surprise and they found it hard to believe. One must know that when they first learned about the method of removing the loquats ‘cores, they were absolutely amazed.

Unexpectedly, it was said by a small gong.

Li Miaozhen’s beautiful eyes widened and she began to re-examine the little Gong. She realized that she might have guessed wrong. This Gong might be a lecher who was hollowed out by wine and women, but he wasn’t a good-for-nothing and had some skills.

…. It seemed that he must have some ability to be arranged to sit at the main table by Governor Zhang. Li Miaozhen put away her contempt and immediately realized that she still underestimated him.

The rest of the silver and copper gongs were arranged at other tables, so why was this kid sitting next to the governor?

This was not something that could be explained simply by “having some ability.” Weren’t the other gongs talents?

“Ha, he shot himself in the foot.” Li Miaozhen sneered gloatingly. She was happy to see envoy song suffer.

Even with song buzheng’s perfect cultivation in officialdom, the shame in his heart still surged. He had previously said that he was blessed by the White Emperor and had been influenced by incense, but in the end, he had been exposed in front of everyone and the Imperial inspector.

“Ningyan, emissary song will naturally explain to me about such petty tricks. Why are you so talkative?” Governor Zhang reprimanded.

On the surface, he reprimanded Xu Qi ‘an, but in fact, he was secretly mocking the envoy song.

“…. May I know your name, Sir?” However, with the interruption of the governor, the chief administrator finally recovered and asked without a change in expression.

“This official’s surname is Xu, first name Qi ‘an, courtesy name Ning Yan.” Xu Qi ‘an replied.

“This kid is quite talented.” Provincial governor Zhang stroked his beard and lifted Xu Qi ‘an up with a smile.

As expected, the officials shifted their gazes and focused on him again. They pondered over the identity of this Gong and his position in the provincial governor’s team.

“So his name is Xu Qi ‘an … Eh, this name sounds familiar.” Li Miaozhen thought for a moment and remembered who Xu Qi ‘an was. She remembered that number three had mentioned this person and praised him.

It’s him … To be so highly regarded by number three, he was indeed extraordinary.

The awkwardness was forcibly resolved by emissary song bu. He casually introduced the local customs of Yunzhou and did not mention the loquat matter, which proved that he still minded it very much.

The banquet ended when provincial governor Zhang was slightly drunk. No one got drunk, and no one innocently suggested to go to the Imperial Academy. Otherwise, song tingfeng would be very happy.

A banquet of this style would not be too extravagant, just like how the officials of the Imperial court almost never went to the Imperial Academy.

When a person reached a certain position, their status would push them to care about their image. Even if you were a greedy person, your external image had to be noble and upright.

Take Xu Qi ‘an for example. He could do whatever he wanted now because he was young and had a low status.

However, when he was in a high position and had great power one day, he would have to pay …

After leaving the mansion, Governor Zhang and the other officials bade their farewells outside the mansion. Then, he got on the carriage and left.

After the carriage had traveled for a distance, he raised the curtain of the window and praised, “”Well done, ningyan,”

Xu Qi ‘an knew that he was referring to the matter of the loquat seed, so he said,”It’s a small matter,”

tsk, tsk. Governor Zhang’s tone became more and more casual as he conversed, without the arrogance of an official, ” you’re also proficient in farming and Mulberry? ”

Without waiting for Xu Qi ‘an to answer, Jiang Lu chimed in with a smile, “”He’s even proficient in alchemy. He’s no worse than Bai Yi of the Directorate of Celestials.”

You’ve acted tough for me, so what should I act tough for? “You’re wrong,” Xu Qi ‘an corrected,”Bai Yi from the Directorate of Celestials has to call me half-master.”

The three of them laughed.

“Why are you so kind today, Sir?” Xu Qi ‘an asked.

Governor Zhang turned around and looked at the mansion that could no longer be seen, he said in a deep voice,”This Yunzhou should be led by Governor song bu. He is not on good terms with yang Chuannan.”

Xu Qi ‘an recalled,’ he’s a little cold …’ But that yang Chuannan is cold to everyone.”

“This means that most of the officials in Yunzhou have the surname song,” Governor Zhang sneered.

“Please advise me, my Lord.”

“Among the three divisions, the commander’s division has the most power, but the one who welcomed me just now was chief administrator song. Although the chief governor should appear on such an occasion, think about it carefully. The first person he introduced to me was the executioner, not the commander. It was obvious that the two were not on good terms.

“I noticed from the banquet that yang Chuannan is silent most of the time, and the chief administrator is like the host. Ha, this is a very particular thing in the officialdom, and you can’t overstep your authority.” Provincial governor Zhang laughed,

“Ningyan, learn from him.”

“I’m a martial artist, why would I learn these things?” Xu Qi ‘an secretly noted it down.

“Also, I’ve come to my senses now.” “Do you know why that song guy gave loquats at the banquet?” Governor Zhang asked.

Acting cool … “I don’t know,” Xu Qi ‘an shook his head.

anyone who is curious will ask. He didn’t answer. It’s a way of giving me a chance to get off my horse. Provincial governor Zhang sneered,

“Also, give me a hint. If I get rid of one person, Yunzhou will be safe. Just like the loquats.”

It went without saying who he wanted to get rid of.

As officials, do you really have to do this … All Dayday knows is scheming … Xu Qi ‘an pinched the space between his eyebrows.

Lord Wei was right, I’m not suitable for politics. A person’s energy is limited. Half of it is given to Fu Xiang, and the other half is reserved for cultivation.

He didn’t have the energy to work in the government anymore.

Xu Qi ‘an looked as if he was having a headache, which made Governor Zhang laugh heartily. His mind was suddenly balanced.

“Governor, why don’t we solve another riddle?” Xu Qi ‘an seemed to smile.

Governor Zhang subconsciously wanted to refuse, but he felt that his dignity as a scholar had been challenged. He raised his eyebrows, “”Go ahead,”

“When a woman gives birth, there are only four words to guess.” Xu Qi ‘an said with a smile.

Governor Zhang’s face gradually stiffened, gradually turned blank, gradually turned helpless and furious … Then, he rolled down the curtain.

“Hahaha.” Jiang Luzhong and Xu Qi ‘an laughed in unison.

“Hmph!” The governor’s cold voice came from the carriage.

….

On the other side, commander yang Chuannan entered the carriage. As soon as he lowered the curtain, it was lifted again. Li Miaozhen, with a high ponytail, came up.

“You entered my carriage in front of so many people, aren’t you afraid of damaging your reputation?” Yang Chuannan frowned.

“The people of the pugilistic world don’t care about these things.” Li Miaozhen waved her hand,”I’m here to ask you about the situation. That Governor seems to be quite polite.” Maybe he’s just going through the motions, do you want to spend some silver to make it happen?”

She knew the rules of Dafeng’s officialdom. If you have money, you are a friend. Without money, even blood Brothers would be impartial and incorruptible.

“Don’t you think you’re dying fast enough for giving silver to the Censorate?” Yang Chuannan shook his head and said, ”

“I can consider killing them all in Yunzhou.”

Li Miaozhen rolled her eyes, ” what do you think of this Governor? ”

“Moderate.” Yang Chuannan commented.

“That’s good. The more incompetent he is, the safer you will be.” Li Miaozhen laughed.

“Mediocrity doesn’t mean mediocrity.” Yang Chuannan shook his head,”those who don’t show their claws and teeth are the most dangerous.” Maybe he’s already saving up in the dark to give me a fatal blow.”

“You need to pay attention to that Gong,” he continued after a pause.

Li Miaozhen, who already knew that Xu Qi ‘an was unusual, raised her eyebrows.”What did you see?”

As the wheels of the carriage rumbled, yang Chuannan lifted the swaying curtain and looked out at the night sky. He pretended to be deep in thought.”His saber is different from the other Watchmen, but it’s a saber and not any other weapon.

“As far as I know, the watchman’s saber came from the Directorate of Celestials, and it’s a semi-magical artifact. There’s only one explanation, and that’s that this person is wearing a magic tool.”

Li Miaozhen nodded. and those who can use magic tools either have an extraordinary identity or have an extraordinary relationship with the Directorate of Celestials.

“His aura is not right either. I’ve observed him. Although he is very honest and reserved when he doesn’t speak, he doesn’t have much respect for either provincial governor Zhang or song Changfu. This can be understood as the arrogance of a martial artist, but it’s rare to have such arrogance in the Qi refining stage.”

As for Jiang Luzhong, a fourth-grade golden gong, there was nothing much to say about it. It was only right to be wary.

…..

After returning to the courier station, Xu Qi ‘an, who had to continue his cultivation, wrote down two sets of secret codes left by Zhou Fu on a piece of rice paper.

old Jiang said that martial arts are a system that improves one’s strength step by step and eventually turns one into a terrifying existence like a god or demon … The spirit refining realm and the Qi refining realm are more like the martial arts movies I’ve seen in my previous life, and they’re even low-level martial arts … However, the level would be higher after the spirit-refinement realm … The Qi refining stage still needs to eat and sleep. I suspect that the spirit refining stage can go on for a long time without sleeping …

‘In the end, I’m still the one who has to carry everything …’ The advancement method of the spirit-forging stage would have been very popular in my era … The otakus would work until the end of time, until their hair fell out, until their girlfriends would have a psychological shadow … Oh, they don’t have girlfriends, that’s fine.

old Jiang said that martial arts are a system that improves one’s strength step by step and eventually turns one into a terrifying existence like a god or demon … The spirit refining realm and the Qi refining realm are more like the martial arts movies I’ve seen in my previous life, and they’re even low-level martial arts … However, the level would be higher after the spirit-refinement realm … The Qi refining stage still needs to eat and sleep. I suspect that the spirit refining stage can go on for a long time without sleeping … That’s already inhuman.”

Xu Qi ‘an’s guess was reasonable. The spirit refining realm toughened the body and soul, allowing a martial artist to fight in high intensity. In the spirit-refinement realm, one’s primordial spirit would be tempered by burning the liver and staying up all night.

Once he successfully advanced to the spirit-refinement realm, his physical body and primordial spirit could work for a long time without rest.

Including the warrior system, all the major cultivation systems were progressive and circular. Every grade was laying the foundation for the next grade.

For example, in the Warlock system, healers were used to lay the foundation for aura observation, while aura observation was used to lay the foundation for Fengshui Masters, and the enhanced version of Fengshui Masters was array Masters.

The logic behind it was very strong. It gave people a feeling that it was not a fantasy, but a down-to-earth promotion.

His thoughts returned to the case,’the secret code was not from the Yamen, it should have been created by Zhou Fu …’ This was a little outrageous. Who would be able to guess it? the difficulty was like leaving a secret code:Withered leaves and young orangey chiffon, falling flowers filling the sky and the sea wings following.

“In the entire nine prefectures, it is impossible for anyone to match it.

I did profiling too frequently today. My brain cells are severely damaged, but I can’t sleep.. ‘m bored … If only fuxiang was here, we could happily do some exercise that is beneficial to the body and mind … But I might just die on her white belly …”

At this moment, his heart suddenly palpitated and he almost died.

He hurriedly took a deep breath, then took out the fragment of the Book of the Netherworld from under his pillow. He was filled with anger and was about to spit on which idiot was spamming the group chat in the middle of the night instead of sleeping when he fixed his eyes on it.

[ two: three, I have something to ask you. You can propose a condition in exchange. ]

Number two was that military lady? I was just worried that I wouldn’t have a chance to test him … Xu Qi ‘an used his finger as a pen and entered the information:[heh, I’d like to hear your question first.]

….
