At that time, Xu Qi ‘an was just a small gong, at the peak of the Qi refining realm, trying to break through to the spirit refining realm.
In just a year, Duke of Wei and Emperor Yuan jing had died, and little Gong had become an extraordinary Saint and a true Big Shot.
“There’s something I’d like to trouble Lord Liu with.”
Xu Qi ‘an put down the teacup and said in a serious tone, ”
“You know that I’m collecting Dragon Qi, which is scattered all over the Central Plains. It’s like looking for a needle in a haystack if I want to gather it in a short time. Originally, it was the most efficient and effective way for the government to come forward.
“But now that the disasters in various places are serious, I’m afraid it’s difficult for the government to do a good job in gathering intelligence, and it’s easy for the enemy forces to take the fruits of their labor. I need a more covert and effective intelligence organization to help me. ”
Liu Hong understood what he meant. you want to be the night watchman’s spy? ”
Seeing Xu Qi ‘an nod his head, Liu Hong shook his head with a grave expression.
“I didn’t inherit the night watchman’s Secret agent.”
“What?” Xu Qi ‘an was stunned.
Liu Hong explained, ”
“After I took over the night watchman’s office, I went to the case library to look for the files that recorded the arrangements of the spies in various places, but I found that they had long disappeared.
“The clerk in charge of guarding the case library told me that Lord Wei had already taken it away before the expedition.”
“Lord Wei, did you take away the files of those spies?” Xu Qi ‘an frowned.
“I thought that he would hand over the night watchman’s spy to you, but it seems like Lord Wei has other plans,” Liu Hong replied.
Xu Qi ‘an tapped his fingers on the table and said slowly, “”Milords, who do you think the Duke of Wei entrusted it to?”
Liu Hong and Zhang xingying looked at each other and shook their heads.
Xu Qi ‘an was a little disappointed. He frowned and thought for a long time, then said, ”
“I will be leaving the capital tomorrow. I will have to trouble Lord Liu to continue to worry about the matter of the night watchman.
“Don’t forget to write a memorial to tell Emperor Yongxing so that he doesn’t have to worry that I, a martial artist, will use the Emperor to command the world.”
Hearing this, Zhang xingying and Liu Hong both shook their heads and laughed.
For now, it was impossible for the Emperor to let Xu Qi ‘an take charge of the night watchman Yamen.
In the heart of an Emperor, the most basic rule was ” balance. Xu Qi ‘an could suppress the civil and military officials, but who could suppress Xu Qi’ an?
Emperor Yongxing would never let such an existence that no one could check and balance hold real power, otherwise, he would not even be able to sleep well.
Xu Qi ‘an was just a tool in this matter.
The main thing was that his current focus was not on the Imperial court or the capital.
“If I’m not wrong, there will be a small court meeting before lunch. At that time, the matter of the donation can be settled.”
“This is a good thing.”
Xu Qi ‘an said.
This was a good thing, so he was willing to be a tool.
After chatting for a while, Xu Qi ‘an got up and said goodbye. He walked to the door of the tea room and stopped. He looked back at the tea room, which had not changed at all.
He suddenly remembered last winter, when he had just joined the night watchman and had just wooed Wei Yuan’s thigh.
Every time he came here to see Wei Yuan, he would feel nervous.
my face has disappeared, but the peach flowers still smile in the spring breeze … Let’s have a few drinks with brother spring, song tingfeng, and Zhu guangxiao.”
The court session had just ended, and the news of Xu yinluo beating up Duke Ding in the throne room and rebuking the officials spread like wildfire in the capital’s officialdom.
It had been more than a month since Emperor Yuan jing was killed.
Xu yinluo had been keeping a low profile all this time. She had never appeared in public, and there was a lot of talk about her in the capital.
According to the rumors in the city, Xu yinluo was not accepted by the Imperial court for killing the fatuous Emperor and was forced to wander the martial world.
Some said that he was seriously injured in that earth-shattering battle and had to recuperate in seclusion.
In fact, even the officials in the capital, who were not high enough in rank, did not know about Xu yinluo’s movements, let alone the people in the market.
Now that he had reappeared, he had directly done something that shocked the entire court.
Xu yinluo has finally come out. I’ve said that he is a man of great conscience. If the public does not donate, someone will force him to donate.
the cold disaster is severe everywhere. The people are living in poverty. Xu yinluo can’t sit still anymore.
“As long as Xu yinluo is here, there is still hope for Da Feng.”
Xu yinluo has finally regained her official position. I’m so excited!
As soon as the news spread, the loyal supporters of the donation were excited. They no longer had to worry about the attitude of their colleagues, nor were they afraid of public anger, and they openly expressed their stand.
Sure enough, before lunch, the cabinet sent out news that the Emperor had decided to call on all officials to donate three days later, and no one stopped him.
Jingxiu Palace.
As lunch approached, noble Consort Chen sat in the warm room and kept looking at the door.
“Why hasn’t Her Majesty arrived yet?”
The charming imperial consort glanced at her daughter beside her and said, “”I don’t know if Xu Qi ‘an’s appearance will be of any use.”
“Of course it works, everyone is afraid of him …” Lin. an subconsciously said.
She suddenly put on a straight face and pretended to be cold, “”What does his business have to do with me? I’ve already drawn a clear line between us.”
Noble Consort Chen examined her for a moment, then shifted her gaze away in puzzlement and continued to look at the door.
The matter of this morning’s Court Assembly had long spread, and naturally could not be hidden from noble Consort Chen.
Knowing that Xu Qi ‘an had come out to help, noble Consort Chen was both surprised and happy. She knew very well that the only person who could help Emperor Yongxing now was Xu Qi’ an.
The reason why he was willing to help, in the end, was mostly for Lin. an … Noble Consort Chen withdrew her gaze and turned to look at her daughter, a trace of complicated emotions in her eyes.
Emperor Yongxing’s figure appeared in the courtyard. He strode through the courtyard and entered the house.
Noble Consort Chen had been waiting at the door for a long time. The first thing she asked when they met was an urgent question, ”
