Nightwatcher Chapter 13: Wei Yuan’s shock

Chapter 244 Wei Yuan’s Shock

Since ancient times, people have a natural awe of officials. Looking at the majestic yamen, the guards with swords, and the serious faces, the aunts and Xu Lingyue are a little afraid.

The first time my aunt came to Yamen, she was very nervous, so she put Xu Lingyin in her arms and rubbed it hard to ease her emotions.

Xiaodouding's face changed various shapes in her aunt's hands.

Xu Lingyue silently approached Xu Qi'an.

"Ning Yan..."

A half-baked gong came over to say hello, and his eyes turned on aunt and Xu Lingyue. It was obvious that he was attracted by the beauty of the aunt and sister.

"This is my sister." Xu Qi'an nodded and introduced Xu Lingyue to him.

The gong immediately smiled and gestured, and then looked at his aunt: "Is this sister?"

The aunt was taken aback for a moment, and then she opened her eyes and smiled, her eyes all crescent-shaped.

Xu Qi'an rolls his eyes: "Have you seen my 36-year-old sister."

"Xu Ningyan!" Auntie was trembling with air.

She was reported to be her age? The aunt took a deep breath, and said that she should not be angry, don't be angry... In front of outsiders, she must maintain her image and can't rush to grab the face of Nephew Hua.

Tong Gong glanced at her aunt and Xu Lingyue again, reluctantly walked away.

Xu Qi'an led the three female family members to the Chunfengtang. Along the way, they met many familiar colleagues and greeted Xu Qi'an enthusiastically. Several people mistook her aunt for Xu Qi'an's sister.

She praised her young and beautiful in disguise.

When I came to the side hall of Chunfeng Hall and ordered the staff to serve tea and pour water, my aunt's nervousness was wiped out, and she smiled:

"Everyone in the yamen is a talented person who speaks nicely."

Aunty, what you said sounds weird... Xu Qi'an said: "I'll go to the office and wait."

He waited for a quarter of an hour at the Yamen, waiting for the three arresters of the government and Zhao Shen and his wife.

"My lord, the criminals brought it here." The young catcher clasped his fists and said respectfully.

"Hmm!"

Xu Qi'an nodded, reached out to take the rope, and said: "You are waiting here, I will send the criminal to the prison, and then return the rope."

The Zhao Shen and his wife were scared and unremarkable. People from Beijing, who didn't know the prestige of being a police officer, knew that the prison was a place where there was no way out.

If I got out by chance, I had to peel off my skin and spend the rest of my life in pain.

It's all Nangong Qianrou's fault, he single-handedly created the notoriety of hitting the dungeon.

Zhao Shen's wife sat down on the ground, crying and screaming: "I won't enter and beat other people's yamen, kill me, kill me."

At first glance, this woman is accustomed to spoiling her at home, and her nature is hard to change. Even though she came to the yamen, she is still very aggressive.

Xu Qi'an stared sharply, and he slapped the guard's scabbard.

Puff... the woman sprayed out three big teeth, and her mouth was covered with blood. She covered her face and seemed to be beaten.

"It is not easy to want to die. I will fulfill you later." Xu Qi'an sneered: "Why didn't you expect to have a present when you bullied?"

After that, he yanked on the rope and dragged the couple into the yamen.

The three catchers stayed where they were, and one of them suddenly said, "Is that adult, is that familiar?"

"...Sir Xu? When Lu Head Catcher was not promoted to General Head Catcher, I followed her on errands. I once met Master Xu once. The change is too big, I can’t recognize it at all. ."

"I've seen it too. No wonder he is so familiar. Isn't he dead? Lu was in a bad mood when he caught his head and lost his temper at every turn."

...........

Along the way, the gong attracted the attention from time to time, smiling and teasing: "Who is the prisoner in charge of Mr. Xu? Weeping."

Xu Qi'an responded: "Two things that are arrogant, let them taste the social beating today."

When I came to the dungeon dedicated to Dageng, "Kang Dang..." the prison door opened, and the dark and humid air rushed towards him.

Zhao Shen's face was pale, with despair and horror in his eyes. This was the most regrettable moment in his life.

Unexpectedly, it was just a small incident that caused myself to suffer such a disaster.

The woman finally broke down, crying: "I gave that bracelet to me, I will lose you money, I will lose you money, don't put me in the dungeon..."

Zhao Shen widened his eyes and looked at his wife. He finally understood the reason for the anger of this mysterious adult. The son who originally came from the family really bullied his sister repeatedly.

It turns out that it was true that the bracelet was snatched. It turns out that the wife knows everything.

It's over, let the caller take the handle, even if the officials are of good grades, let alone him. Will my uncle offend and beat others for him?

I can't help but regret, why didn't I figure out the matter first, why I didn't deal with it properly, why I only thought of bullying some small people in the market and the officials of Sesame Mung Bean with my uncle's power in my mind.

Zhao Shen burst into tears, muttering: It's over...

He suddenly got angry, kicked his wife, and yelled: "I blame you, I blame you..."

He kicked and cursed, wishing to divorce his wife, provided that he could go back alive.

The woman wailed loudly.

Xu Qi'an recruited the jailer, put the two in prison, and then the head of the prison, and ordered: "The couple who just came in, give them some color, and pay attention to proportion."

"Do you have a sense of measure... do you want to save your life or your legs?" The prison head asked.

"..." Xu Qi'an said in a huff: "I'm alive, but I beat them every day. Be careful when you beat them, don't miss your arms and legs, these two people are useful to me, do you understand."

In this way, the jailer has a bottom in his heart, and Mrs. Xu is just a normal lesson, leaving the two to suffer in prison.

"That's it? This is a dungeon for fighting people." The jailer said in his heart, this kind of trivial matter should be sent to prison for fighting people?

"This is called labor reform. The official, as a guard, protects the safety of the imperial city, is trusted and reused by his majesty, and is supposed to teach fools."

"My lord is wise."

Out of the prison, he chatted with his aunt and sister in Chunfengtang until the black-clothed official came to report that an official who claimed to be the literary selection department asked to see him.

As expected by Xu Qi'an, the concept of clan in this world is not much stronger than that of the previous life. It is hard to say how much the nephew is willing to do when he encounters this kind of thing in the previous life.

After all, Xu Qi'an is not an ordinary watchman now, but a watchman holding a gold medal.

"Bring him to Chunfeng Hall." Xu Qi'an got up, left the side hall, entered Li Yuchun's "office" and sat in his seat.

After a while, I should have also been a silver gong. Oh, there are ten bronze gongs. Who should I hire... ten places are given to my second uncle, one to aunt, and one to Erlang. Give Lingyue one, oh, and have a ringtone too, haha, the whole family has nothing to pay.

He was entertaining himself thinking, the door was dark, and the official came in with a goat-bearded official. He was over fifty years old, wearing a blue official robe, and the patch on his chest was a white pheasant. The gray sideburns were exposed under the official hat.

As soon as he stepped into the threshold of Chunfeng Hall, this old man who had been silent and very powerful, burst into a smile like a spring breeze:

"Sir Xu, I have long admired the name, and I have been admiring the name for a long time...Oh, my official position is low, and I have never seen Lord Xu. I heard that you are a frequent visitor to the Imperial Study."

Xu Qi'an said indifferently: "If you want to see this officer, just go to Jiaofang Division."

Zhao Langzhong was taken aback.

Xu Qi'an laughed loudly: "Master Zhao can't help but tease than the girl from Jiaofangsi.....Haha, please sit down, come and watch tea."

Zhao Langzhong praised and secretly criticized Xu Qi'an, alluding to the fact that Xu Qi'an was forced to make countless enemies.

Xu Qi'an compared him to a woman in the dust.

After a confrontation with no sword light or sword shadow, the staff member offered hot tea, Master Zhao took a sip of tea, and went straight to the subject:

"Master Xu, I wonder what happened to my unworthy nephew?"

"The problem is big!"

Xu Qi'an frowned, as if worrying about Zhao Langzhong, and said: "Instructing the child to do something forcibly and arrogantly, after the incident, he called the family to deliberately murder the official and the official's family.

"Master Zhao, we are officials in the same dynasty. We should have given each other face, but...the law is not merciful!"

Master Zhao, who has been in officialdom for many years, does not change his face, and even shows a trace of shame: "It is the official who did not restrain him and let him act recklessly."

Master Zhao took out a silver ticket from his sleeve and placed it on the table, apologizing sincerely: "Master Xu raised his hand."

Xu Qi'an glanced at it, with a face value of 100, and sighed: "My sister is hurt a bit."

Master Zhao took out another one.

Xu Qi'an sighed and said: "My aunt is hurt a bit."

Master Zhao took out another one.

Xu Qi'an sighed and said: "My sister is hurt a bit."

"Sister Xu has already been injured."

"Oh, I have two younger sisters."

Master Zhao took out another one.

Xu Qi'an sighed and said: "This official is also hurt a bit."

Master Zhao's mouth twitched, and then took out a hundred taels.

"The lost bracelet was given by your majesty..."

Another one.

Now, there are a total of five hundred taels on the table. It has been around the officialdom of Mr. Zhao for dozens of years, and the corners of his mouth are somewhat uncontrollable.

Xu Qi'an didn't continue to be embarrassed. He didn't accept it as soon as he saw it. Instead, Zhao Shen started blackmailing five hundred taels not long ago, and now he is treating him in the same way.

"This matter, I will forgive them." Xu Qi'an carefully collected the cash receipts and put them in his arms.

"Then..... Mr. Xu, please let go." Master Zhao breathed a sigh of relief.

"This won't work." Xu Qi'an shook his head.

Master Zhao's face sank in vain.

Xu Qi'an took a sip of tea and smiled: "I owe the debt, but I still have to collect interest. The five hundred taels of silver notes are interest. You haven't paid me the principal yet."

Master Zhao stared at him sharply. After a moment, he took a deep breath: "What does Master Xu want?"

He is a real authority, and he is in charge of official dispatch. This power is extraordinary, and it can be said that it determines the fate of the court magistrate.

Except for the commanders, the chief officials, and the prosecutors, he cannot interfere with the appointment of these three second-grade officials. The transfer and appointment of the other local officials must be handled by the Department of Literary Selection.

Xu Qi'an alone is helpless.

The replacement of personnel was originally an organization set up for the supervision of hundreds of officials, and their natural positions would conflict with each other. Besides, the appointment of personnel does not belong to the officials. There is another reason, this kid is a hob meat.

There is Wei Yuan on the top, and he has been appointed by His Majesty to handle the case many times. Not to mention that he is a doctor, even the court officials, to this small gong, they are tuituitui in their hearts, but they are helpless on the surface.

"It's not a big deal. Come on, Lord Zhao, sit down, sit down." Xu Qi'an motioned him to sit down, then raised the teacup to signal, and waited for Master Zhao to take a sip of tea before he smiled and asked:

"I heard about the deployment of officials in charge of literary selection?"

Zhao Langzhong nodded.

"Chun Wei will be in a few days. The official has a cousin who is only talented and rich in learning. It is easy to get a good scholar." Xu Qi'an said.

"In this case, Master Xu told the official what this is doing, and I feel at ease." Zhao Langzhong understood what he meant.

"Well..." Xu Qi'an said: "He is a disciple of Yunlu Academy."

A disciple of Yunlu Academy?

Mr. Zhao frowned deeply.

"Don't worry, Master Zhao will not be embarrassed. You only need to keep him in Beijing after Chunwei, and treat him equally with other jinshi, and this official will be grateful." Xu Qi'an is insatiable:

"The adult's nephew and nephew will naturally be released when the time comes. I will not treat them badly. I have no right to the bracelet that your majesty rewarded."

Xu Qi'an had this idea in his heart when he heard Mr. Li say that the other party's backing was Wen Xuan Si Lang.

This is a deal.... Zhao Langzhong pondered for a long time, and slowly nodded: "Yes, I hope Master Xu will keep his promise."

Send Zhao Langzhong away, Xu Qi'an let out a sigh of relief and said in his heart that Erlang, among the younger brothers and sisters, the eldest brother's favorite is you.

Next, he turned his head and went to Haoqi Building.

When the guards guarding downstairs saw Xu Qi'an, they were very resentful, and said in a strange manner: "Master Xu Qian, you are here again, I heard that your elder brother has come back from the dead?"

Xu Qi'an glanced at him: "Who is Xu Qian? My name is Xu Xinnian, don't talk nonsense, go up and report."

The guard went upstairs and went back, saying: "Wei Gong invites you to go upstairs."

........

The seventh floor.

Wei Yuan, standing in front of the geomancy map, meditating, heard footsteps, did not turn back, his tone was casual:

"Langzhong Zhao from the Wenxuan Division came to see you?"

I came to Haoqilou and it was indeed the right decision... Xu Qi'an clasped his fists: "I can't hide anything from Wei Gong."

Wei Yuan nodded, still did not turn around: "What's the matter?"

Xu Qi'an described the general process of the matter and said: "If there are no accidents in my family, Erlang will definitely be distributed to the poor country. How can this be the case for the second uncle as his only son."

Wei Yuan asked with a non-smiling tone, "Why don't you ask me for help."

The answer to him was silence, and Wei Yuan did not urge.

Xu Qi'an hesitated for a long time and answered calmly: "I want to leave a way for the Xu family. He shouldn't be in the same camp as me."

After a pause, he added: "Because of Wei Gong's favor, it is my duty to charge and fall into battle."

Many times, things are pushing you away, and after walking, there is no turning back.

Of course, Xu Qi'an is not regretful, he has to pay for what he has gained, he just feels that one more path is good for the future.

The lone minister did not end well!

The words of the prince made Xu Qi'an secretly vigilant.

Smart people don’t put their eggs in a basket. Xu Qi’an hopes that there will be one more New Year among those who can support the Xu family in the future.

Although as a cousin, Xu New Year will be branded by him to some extent, but this is different from Wei Yuan's.

We can't conceal this point carefully, so the sentence Xu Qi'an added later is expressing his position.

Wei Yuan nodded slowly, "Human nature, by the way, you have successfully promoted to the realm of refinement. How strong is the original spirit?"

"This is hard to say..." Xu Qi'an scratched his head.

"Let's take Li Yuchun as the standard. He is an experienced God Refining Realm. Although he is still some distance away from the copper skin and iron bones, his combat power is not bad." Wei Yuan continued to stare at the geomancy map.

Xu Qi'an groaned: "Then I can cut two with one knife."

Wei Yuan turned around in shock: "Huh?"

He squinted and stared at Xu Qi'an: "What did you say?"

"Wei Gong, after stepping into the realm of refining the gods in a humble position, he has not fought with anyone, nor can he know what level the strength of the soul is in the realm of refining." Xu Qian said modestly.

"Don't you know how to roar with Buddhist lions," Wei Yuan thought for a while, pointing to the observation deck, "outside, roar."

"Wei Gong, the lion roars regardless of enemy or friend." Xu Qi'an didn't dare.

The aoe skill can be used for enemies or friends.

"Don't worry about me." Wei Yuan waved his hand.

"Yes." Xu Qi'an crossed the tea room and walked to the observation deck, facing the warm sunlight, sinking in dantian.

In my mind, I visualized the image of the golden lion roaring, matched with the unique method of breathing and luck, and paused for a few seconds...He went down, the whole office, roared sinkingly.

"Roar!"

This roar is not like a beast roar, nor is it like a human roar, it's more like a Jiao Lei beating and exploding the government office.

Rolling sound waves raged.

The clerk in the Haoqi Building suddenly turned white, his ears were temporarily deaf, and his eyes were completely dark.

Across the distance, when I heard the roar, uncontrollable fear surged in my heart.

Countless Dao Qi machines gushing from all over the yamen, the golden gongs in the yamen are all disturbed, a group of people rushed out of the house, or gathered in the courtyard, or jumped onto the roof, or rushed to the Haoqi Building.

At this moment, the entire yamen was shocked.

"Wei~IndoMTL.com~Wei Gong...it seems to be too much trouble."

Wei Yuan suddenly stared at Xu Qi'an with an awkward expression.

This is a lion. He is slowly sharpening his claws and slowly growing fangs.

He hasn't fully grown up yet, but one day, his roar will shake Kyushu.

........

PS: Haha, I can talk about the previous chapter, but there is no need to quarrel. I will be confused by three o'clock in the morning, and the quality will definitely be affected. A book with several million words will always have some flaws, and we can't make the chapter perfect. Forgive me.

I know that many readers are waiting, especially when they say that they have to take an exam tomorrow...I am actually very anxious. I want to finish the code as soon as possible. I will give you an explanation.

Including that I got up again at 7 o'clock this morning and slept for four hours. I wrote another chapter against exhaustion. Well, everyone will not stay up late in the future. I will try not to stay up late to affect the quality.

(End of this chapter)
