188 Chapter 164-turning the tables (seanghoust) _1
Xu Qi ‘an took a step forward, knocked over the guard, kicked away the sword, and slapped him one after another. “Will you pass it on, will you pass it on …”
The guards at the side were stunned, not knowing if they should stop him.
“Don’t, don’t hit me …” The guard who fell to the ground held his head and cried out bitterly, “”Aren’t you making things difficult for me? later, Duke Wei will blame me.”
Xu Qi ‘an was Wei Yuan’s favorite, so he didn’t dare to resist. As long as the other party didn’t break into the noble Qi building, the guards wouldn’t choose to turn against him.
“I understand. Everyone has their own difficulties.” Xu Qi ‘an saw that the other party’s arrogance had been shattered and retracted his hand in satisfaction. He took out a tael of silver from his money bag.
“This ordinary gold and white object is worth the risk. If not, I’ll switch.”
“Alright, alright.” The guard took the silver, picked up his saber, and slipped into the noble spirit building.
After about ten minutes, Xu Qi ‘an saw the candlelight on the seventh floor light up. After a while, the guard came downstairs and said respectfully, “”Duke Wei invites you up, this girl …”
“A sorcerer from the Directorate of Celestials, one of our own.” Xu Qi ‘an brought Yan Caiwei into the building.
There were officials on duty in the building during the day, so it was quite lively. At night, it was quiet, adding a sense of loneliness and coldness.
Didn’t Wei Yuan feel lonely living in the building all year round?
As he thought about it, he walked to the tea room on the seventh floor. It was not warm here. There was no charcoal in the room, and there was not even a servant in the building.
Wei Yuan was sitting cross-legged at the table with an oil lamp beside him. He was wearing a green robe and his black hair was loose. Seeing Xu Qi ‘an come up, he ordered him, ”
“Make charcoal, boil water, and light the other candles.”
He seemed a little cold. Heh, Wei Yuan may be cunning, but he doesn’t seem to have any talent in martial arts … Haha, the heavens are fair … Xu Qi ‘an did as he was told. Candles lit up the spacious tea room, and charcoal was placed beside Wei Yuan. A copper pot was placed on top of it.
“Today, I asked qianrou to inform you to go into hiding, but I couldn’t find you even after searching the entire Yamen. I went to the Xu residence to ask, but you didn’t return. I went to the Academy and asked, but you were still not there.
“You’re not looking for me this late at night for a corruption case, are you?” Wei Yuan laughed and looked at Yan Caiwei, ”
“This little Gong is miss Cai Wei’s man of interest?”
“No.” Yan Caiwei’s face reddened.
However, she was not enlightened, so she blushed for a moment and looked at the coffee table and table a few times, but did not see any food.
This place was very boring.
“Lord Wei, I’ve discovered a major case,” Xu Qi ‘an sat cross-legged beside the table, facing Wei Yuan. I took leave today to buy a house and found a haunted house. After miss Caiwei and I dealt with this matter, we shared a relationship with the female ghost …
Xu Qi ‘an explained in detail what had happened. Wei Yuan didn’t pay much attention to it at first, but when he heard the word “house,” his face darkened.
The eunuch’s face turned gloomy when he heard that the Minister of Works had a secret meeting with the witchcraft cult, and that they were secretly selling weapons and cannons.
“As expected, the Qi gang is connected to the Yunzhou bandits. Very good, this information is very important.” Wei Yuan looked at Xu Qi ‘an, his eyes warm and full of admiration. you always surprise me.
Then take me as your adopted son … Xu Qian said.
Xu bailing was a shameless person and could not bring herself to say such words. It was just like how he had been stunningly good-looking in his previous life, but he could not bring himself to say, “Aunty, I don’t want to fight anymore.
“Duke of Wei, the reason why Zhu Yang betrayed you was all because of me.” Xu Qi ‘an said guiltily.
even without him, there would still be other incidents. This time, the Qi party is my enemy. Of course, there are other parties secretly adding fuel to the fire. Wei Yuan did not explain why the Qi party wanted to be his enemy.
The mastermind behind this corruption case was the Qi party?
Through the messenger of the nether world, he learned from number one that Zhu Yang had betrayed the Yamen and become a traitor.
However, number one did not say that the Qi party was behind this, so Xu Qi ‘an thought it was the king’s party.
This was too much of a coincidence … A “corruption case” just happened at the Yamen today, and I was also involved in it. I immediately made such a big discovery.
…. Is it because I’m about to advance to the spirit-refinement realm, so my luck has undergone a qualitative change? Otherwise, it didn’t make sense.
interesting. The king’s party is colluding with the monster race, and the Qi party is colluding with the witch God sect. Who are the people in the Imperial court? ” Yan Caiwei ridiculed,
“Your Majesty’s brain must be damaged from all the cultivation.”
Xu Qi ‘an quickly elbowed the girl who was talking without thinking.
“His Majesty doesn’t care about the state affairs. Although he still holds great power, it’s inevitable that he’ll raise some demons and ghosts. He is skilled in politics, but the officials are not stupid.” Wei Yuan didn’t mind Yan Caiwei’s offense. After all, all astrologers were like this.
Yang qianhuan’s style of doing things was rather preposterous, and he always had his back to the Emperor whenever he met him. His Majesty was never angry and was very useful to people, but he had always been generous and kind to those who had no power.
“The scholarly faction’s dragon slaying technique was meant to slay this Dragon, wasn’t it?” Xu Qi ‘an said.
Just as he finished speaking, Yan Caiwei elbowed him in revenge.
Emperor Yuan jing controlled the Imperial court, and the officials in the Imperial court were also acting him. When an Emperor only cared about his own power and did not care about the People’s livelihood, the starting point of choosing talents would change. The assessment standards would tend to be obedient and easy to control.
As for his character and ability, it wasn’t that important, unless he was as talented as Wei Yuan.
It’s rotten from the source … Wei Yuan, is this the reason you removed the obstacle? Xu Qi ‘an remembered what Wei Yuan had said. He wanted to clean up the mess in the Imperial court and sweep away the decadence of the country. But before that, he had to stay with the light and allow his subordinates to make mistakes.
