Chapter 491
491 Attending the meeting (2)
Xu Qi ‘an scolded them. “You only know how to go to the teaching workshop all day. Didn’t you all see me fight? what did the old monk under the Bodhi tree say? Beauty was like a bone scraping knife, not a good thing.
“You only know how to be a coward every day. Do you think you’re worthy of your uniform? It’s fine if you guys want to f * ck off, but you just have to drag me down with you, bah!”
Everyone knew what kind of person he was, so he wasn’t afraid at all. He scolded, “”In our Yamen, who has more Gu than you?”
Xu Qi ‘an said,”I’m not paying, how can you call it a taxi?” We may be familiar with each other, but I’ll definitely report you to Duke Wei for slander.”
“Bah!” Everyone was stunned.
However, everyone still admired Xu Qi ‘an. It was not that he did not pay for sleeping with the courtesan, but that the courtesan wanted to spend money to sleep with him.
“Ningyan, I heard from old song that when you were still Gonggong and when you first joined the night watchman, you were already in a relationship with miss Fu Xiang? Other than this poem, are there any other techniques?” One copper Gong humbly asked for advice.
The eyes of the copper Gong and silver Gong guards lit up. Who didn’t want to be the favorite of the courtesans of the Imperial Academy?
“There’s indeed a trick to this.” Xu Qi ‘an gave an affirmative answer.
“What trick?” The night watchmen’s breathing quickened.
At this moment, a majestic voice came from the door. gathering and chatting during your duty. Do you still have discipline in your eyes? ”
The crowd turned around and saw a golden gong at the entrance of the hall of one Dao. His eagle eyes were as sharp as knives, and there were faint crow’s feet at the corners of his eyes. It was Jiang lü.
“Jiang Jinluo …”
The group stopped smiling and explained respectfully, “”Xu ningyan is teaching us how to sleep with the top courtesan without spending money.”
“?”
Jiang Luzhong’s sharp gaze swept across the crowd as he laughed.”All of you only know how to dream big … Okay, you guys go on. Remember not to stay together for too long.”
With that, he turned around and left the courtyard. He leaned against the wall and activated the hearing ability of a rank four martial artist.
In the hall, the others nudged Xu Qi ‘an. “Ningyan, please continue.”
“I’m a little thirsty,” Xu Qi ‘an coughed.
Song tingfeng served him some tea.
Xu Qi ‘an took a sip to soothe his throat and said, ” indeed, miss fuxiang likes me because of a poem, but the reason why she can’t leave me is not because of the poem.
“What is it?” Everyone asked.
“Do you know what women hate most about men?” Xu Qi ‘an asked.
The night watchmen all gave their own opinions, thinking that it was “no silver,””useless,” and so on.
Xu Qi ‘an shook his head, looked at his colleagues’ faces, and said in a deep voice, “”It’s a shallow friendship.”
What kind of logic was this? Hearing this, the night watchmen fell into deep thought.
“What does this have to do with miss floating fragrance being unable to leave you?” Zhu guangxiao frowned.
“When I first met her,. asked her behind closed doors …” Xu Qi ‘an put down the cup, and his face became serious and calm. He said word by word, “”So, will it work?”
“Then I did it, and she couldn’t leave me.”
In the silence, song tingfeng questioned, “”I suspect you’re lying to us, but we don’t have any evidence.”
it’s normal. This isn’t something that ordinary people can understand, especially men who aren’t capable enough. Xu Qi ‘an patted his shoulder and said to the others, ”
“I’ve already told you the trick. Whether you can understand it or not, well, it depends on you.”
. Can’t we just talk like this …” Jiang Luzhong left thoughtfully. At first glance, there seemed to be no difficulty in understanding these two sentences, but he felt that there was an unimaginably profound meaning behind them.
I’d better ask Lord Wei. With his intelligence, he should be able to understand this trick in an instant.
………….
After sending away his colleagues, an official came in and said, ” Xu yinluo, Jiang Jinluo asked me to ask you if you still need to prepare the medicinal herbs for cooking. Your cultivation base is high enough for you to try body tempering.
Did old Jiang just come to ask about this? He just had to inform the clerk, there was no need for him to come personally … He was probably here for invincible Vajra, but he felt embarrassed … Xu Qi ‘an replied, ”
“No need.”
“Alright,” he said. The clerk left.
Not long after, the two pithy phrases “speak deeply with a shallow friend” and “will it work or not” spread in the Yamen. It was said that as long as one understood the profoundness of these two pithy phrases, one would be able to become the top courtesan of the Academy.
Don’t doubt it, because it was Xu yinluo who said it.
For a time, all the halls were in an intense discussion.
At this moment, the main culprit, Xu Qi, was greeted by the guards of shaoyin garden.
“The second Princess has summoned you,” the guard said.
“I know. I still have something to do, so I’ll go later.” Xu Qi ‘an, who was reading the files, sat behind the desk without moving.
The guard cupped his hands and left.
After about 15 minutes, Xu Qi ‘an put down the file and heaved a sigh of relief.
“There are more and more people from the martial world pouring into the capital. When the news of the fight spreads, I’m afraid that more martial artists will come to the capital to join in the fun … Although it had greatly promoted the capital’s economy, there were still many cases of fraud and even burglary.
“If this continues, there are two ways to solve this problem …” He thought.
Xu Qi ‘an waved his hand and called for an official. He ordered, “”Write a memorial …”
There were at least three officials arranged in front of each Hall to act as secretaries. After all. the silver gongs could kill people. but as for writing … People like Xu yinluo were considered average.
Xu Qi ‘an gave Wei Yuan three suggestions.First, transfer troops from the 13 counties under the capital to maintain law and order in the outer city.Two, submit a memorial to His Majesty, requesting the Imperial Army to participate in the patrol of the inner city.Three, during this period of time, any thieves would be executed! Robbers on the street, behead! If you start a fight on the street, cause injuries to passers-by, and damage to stall owners ‘property, you will be executed!
The first two conditions were to pave the way for the third condition. Under heavy punishment, the thieves would definitely go to the extreme, so a large number of troops and experts were needed to suppress them.
This might cause the thieves to take risks and commit crimes of murder, but if they wanted to quickly eliminate the evil practices and restore peace and stability, they had to be deterred by heavy punishment.
After he finished writing the memorial, another guard came in. This time, it was a guard from Dexin court.
“Princess huaiqing has invited Lord Xu to the palace for a chat.”
…………
Xu Manor.
Xu Erlang was dressed in a light white robe and his hair was tied up with a Jade Coronet. He had Jade on his waist, which was his, his father’s, and his brother’s … In short, he hung up the most valuable pieces of waist Jade for the men in the family.
“Big brother and father are martial artists. They don’t even use it normally. I think it’s a waste to leave it.” That was what Xu Erlang had told his aunt and Xu lingyue.
The cultural meeting organized by chief advisor Wang would definitely be filled with talents. It could be considered the top gathering of this era, so Xu Erlang felt that he had to dress decently.
The Auntie looked at him from head to toe and was very satisfied. She felt that her son was definitely the most beautiful child at the cultural gathering.
“If you want to participate in the cultural gathering, then go. Why did you bring lingyue along?” His aunt asked.
When Xu lingying heard the word “Wen Hui,” she immediately raised her head.
“The invitation is written like this. Just take it as taking lingyue to broaden her horizons.” Xu Erlang said.
The Auntie immediately held her daughter’s hand and said excitedly, ”
“When you go to the cultural gathering, take a look around and see which family’s young master you like. When you come back, tell mother that with the Xu family’s current reputation, it won’t be a problem to marry you into a rich family.”
“Mother, what are you saying? I’m not going.” Xu lingyue turned around unhappily.
Xu lingying took advantage of the opportunity and pounced on Xu niannian. “If big sister doesn’t want to go, I’ll go. Second brother, take me, take me.”
As he said that, he hung onto Xu Erlang’s leg.
Xu Xinian shook her a few times, but he couldn’t shake her off. This little girl’s strength was terrifying.
alright, but you have to change into a pretty dress. Otherwise, I won’t take you. Xu Erlang said.
“En!” Xu Ling nodded happily.
Then. he was led back to the house by his aunt. Ten minutes later, the little bean combed his hair into an adult’s appearance and put on a handsome suit … Her second brother and sister had already left.
”
The sound of a pig being slaughtered echoed in the courtyard.

Under the warm spring sun, the carriage arrived at the king’s residence.
