Chapter 312
312 Please grant me death, Your Majesty (2)
With my looks now, I’ll definitely be as good looking as Wei Yuan when I get old … “Greetings, Duke Wei,” Xu Qi ‘an cupped his fists and said in a clear voice.
“Have a seat,” Wei Yuan said gently.
For the first time, Wei Yuan personally poured him a cup of hot tea and said, “”Let’s talk about what happened in Yunzhou.”
It was a long story. Xu Qi ‘an told Wei Yuan everything that happened in Yunzhou, including the identity of li Miaozhen number two and the Holy Virgin of the heavenly sect.
Other than the fact that monk Shen Shu was of great importance, he did not hold back anything else.
The main reason was that Wei Yuan was too smart. If he hid too much, he would be discovered. Moreover, the eunuch really valued him and nurtured him. Xu Qi ‘an returned the favor and trusted Wei Yuan.
As expected, Wei Yuan took a sip of tea and said, “”Yang qianhuan has been following you.”
Xu Qi ‘an was stunned at first, but he was not stupid. He immediately realized something and asked, “”Why is senior brother yang following me?”
“He naturally wouldn’t follow you for no reason. Based on my understanding of this person, other than the strange things he likes to do, he doesn’t care about anything else.” Wei Yuan smiled. but what if it’s the director’s intention? ”
. The warden knows my secret …” If he was the one who incited it, then it would be reasonable.
Xu Qi ‘an sized up Wei Yuan silently. Would the intelligent Wei Yuan notice something?
Wei Yuan didn’t dwell on this topic and continued, “”As for the third-grade magician, let’s just treat him as a third-grade magician for now. I don’t think he’s sun Xuanji from the Directorate of Celestials.
“However, this incident did remind me of something else.”
“Please enlighten me, Lord Wei,” Xu Qi ‘an said, his spirits lifted.
Lord Wei was still the most reliable. The Golden Lotus Daoist priest was always hiding his words. Wei Yuan didn’t hold anything back from me.
“You’re familiar with Chu Caiwei from the Directorate of Celestials and Song Qing. Do you know their respective identities?”
“Supervisor’s personal disciple?” Xu Qi ‘an asked with uncertainty.
Not all of the white-robed men in the Directorate of Celestials were the direct disciples. It was just like how the great Confucians of the Yunlu Academy often held lectures, but they rarely had any true personal disciples.
Song Qing, Chu Caiwei, and yang qianhuan were the direct disciples of the supervisor.
“Yang qianhuan is the third disciple of the supervisor, Song Qing is the fourth, and Yan Caiwei is the sixth. The white-robed warlocks call her Little Junior.” Wei Yuan said.
….. What’s wrong with that? Xu Qi ‘an didn’t understand.
“But the supervisor only has five personal disciples.” Wei Yuan said.
This … Xu Qi ‘an’s pupils contracted as he finally understood what Wei Yuan meant. There were only five supervisors, but Yan Caiwei was the sixth. What about the other one?
Where did that person go?
Yang qianhuan was the third disciple, Song Qing was the fourth, and Yan Caiwei was the sixth … He didn’t know what sun Xuanji’s position was.
“Sun Xuanji is the second disciple.” Wei Yuan said.
“In that case, the first and fifth disciples are still unknown.” Xu Qi ‘an said.
For a moment, the two of them did not continue to talk, and the tea room fell into a brief silence.
After finishing his tea, Wei Yuan continued, “”You’ve woken up at the wrong time,”
“Duke of Wei, why do you say that?” Xu Qi ‘an didn’t understand.
“Zhang xingying has submitted a Memorial, hoping that the Imperial court will confer upon you the title of Changle County’s magistrate after his Majesty and the other officials have discussed it. In a few days, the Imperial edict will come.”
“Since you’re already alive, the cabinet will most likely reject the Imperial edict, and the Emperor will most likely accept it,” Wei Yuan said helplessly.
“What’s the big deal, as long as the reward is not small, I’m fine with it.” Xu Qi ‘an shrugged indifferently.
The county Lord of Changle County should be a Viscount, which sounded like a title of younger brother … No, his son’s title.
In the future, when they met the officials of Changle County, they would introduce each other and the other party would say, “Ninghao, I’m xxxxx from Changle County.
Xu Qi ‘an said,”I’m from Changle County.”
Those who don’t know the industry might think that I’m someone else’s son.
Wei Yuan looked at him and said,”silver is just a worldly possession. The meaning of a noble title is not something that silver can compare to.” Even if you’ve become a silver Gong and have power and influence in your hands, your status is still not up to standard.
“Only the title of nobility is the proof that you’ll be completely removed from your citizenship and become a noble of the dynasty. If you were conferred a noble title, the Xu family would not be an ordinary family, but a noble family.
“When you get married in the future, a commoner woman will not be qualified to marry you. Only the daughter of a wealthy family can match you.”
“Can I marry the princess?” Xu Qi ‘an asked in a low voice.
….. “Theoretically, yes,” Wei Yuan replied.
It was impossible for a Princess to marry a commoner. Her future husband would definitely be a powerful person. Although the title of Viscount was not high, it was still a noble title.
“I don’t know why, but His Majesty doesn’t like you. If he’s not willing, no one can do anything.” Wei Yuan laughed, ”
“Fortunately, you’re not a good-for-nothing, so there’s still room for maneuver.”
“Wei Gonggong, teach me.”
“A few days ago, a major event happened in the palace. Consort Fu died in an accident and fell from the pavilion with disheveled clothes. At that time, the Crown Prince was the only one in the room, and he was drunk. This case is very difficult to handle. Not only does it concern the face of the imperial family, but it also involves the matter of dethronging the Crown Prince. The three law divisions are not willing to get involved and will definitely be passive in handling the case.”
….. Oh my God, the Crown Prince insulted the emperor’s consort?
Xu Qi ‘an quickly shook his head. Lord Wei, aren’t you trying to harm me? I can’t interfere in the royal family’s scandal.
“It’s fine,” Wei Yuan waved his hand and said,”all the officials know about this. You’ll make no difference.” It’s good that you can find out, but if you can’t, just push it away.
if you’re not capable enough, you’ll only be punished a little at most. Even if His Majesty doesn’t like you, as long as you haven’t made a big mistake, a Viscount can’t be beheaded by him just because he wants to. The noble Group will not agree.
