An invitation from the watchman... To me?

For a moment, Xu Qian couldn't believe it. He kept silent and didn't rush to speak.

"You are a talented person. I have already confirmed that you were in the back hall of the government. It's just that watchmen have rules, and practicing Qi is the bottom line. " Li Yuchun changed a very casual posture, not as aggressive as before, and said:

"as the guardian of Dafeng, it's normal for your Majesty's guardian to be more demanding.

"But you have proved you with your own skills. Even in the realm of refining, watchmen are willing to attract you."

Is it because my means are dirty enough and my mind is careful enough that I am admitted out of the ordinary?

Yes, this half Nanman silver Gong appreciated me when he cracked the tax case.

The serious faced silver Gong added: "of course, the main reason is that the princess recommended you."

Princess long?! Xu Qian was surprised again.

Who is the eldest princess? Why does she recommend her? I don't know her at all. Er... I did hear about her in Yunlu Academy.

However, we have never met before. Why did she recommend me to the watchman?

Xu Qi'an is full of confusion. The two silver gongs don't seem to have any plans to solve his puzzles. Or maybe they don't know.

"In addition to these, the reason why the two adults didn't report me is..."

Li Yuchun said with a smile: "you should know the duty of the watchman."

Zhou Shilang, who is greedy for money and food from the state treasury, is not in the same camp as the watchmen. Even the fall of Zhou Shilang is fueled by the watchmen organization. Xu Qi'an suddenly realized.

"Shilang Zhou will finish sooner or later. We have already started to deal with him. It's just your little trick that has helped us speed up our progress." Said the serious faced silver Gong.

Li Yuchun took a look at him and said, "Mr. Sun, according to the previous agreement, I'll take this person. Please give us some space to talk."

The silver Gong, surnamed sun, did not leave, but gazed at Xu Qi'an: "you have the right to choose, with him or with me."

"There is not much difference in power between us, but he is a man of reason and doesn't know how to change his mind. He follows his Gong as usual, and I can buy a pretty good courtyard in the inner city in three years at most."

After three years of working in a suite in the capital, it's really an irresistible temptation. Xu Qian politely refused sun Yinluo's invitation and said, "when I was involved in the tax case, Mr. Li gave me the opportunity to redeem my contributions. I always remember that I wanted to do something under his hand."

This is just one of the reasons. Another reason is that he does not want to go against his heart and do too much "fishing for the wrong side".

Sun Yinluo nodded slightly and praised: "it's a good thing to know how to repay your kindness."

He went out without nostalgia.

When the door closed, Li Yuchun pointed to the chair opposite and said with a gentle smile, "sit down, introduce yourself. I'm Li Yuchun, and I'll be your leader in the future. You can call me that directly. If you don't feel used to it, you can call Mr. Li. "

Can you call your brother chun? Xu Qi'an takes a seat and shouts "Mr. Li" with a little formality.

"When you work under my command, you should have a clear conscience. You must remember that." After Li Yuchun gave a warning, he began to introduce the watchmen organization:

"among the watchmen, the bottom is the White army, which has no establishment and does chores. The second most important thing is the money, and the second most important thing is the money. Upward is the silver Gong, enjoying the treatment of 100 households.

"Above the silver Gong is the golden gong, which is the highest level position. There are only ten golden gongs in Dafeng capital. They listen to the orders directly from Duke Wei. "

Xu Qi'an nodded. He knew the common sense. Wei Yuan was the head of the watchman organization.

"The duty of the watchman is to supervise all officials and guard the capital. You will be familiar with the specific business in the future. " Li Yuchun surveyed Xu Qian:

"you are now at the peak of refining. I have two suggestions: first, slowly accumulate merits and wait for opportunities. 2、 Pay four hundred taels of silver, and I'll open the gate for you. "

Xu Qian did not hesitate: "I choose the second one."

Li Yuchun squinted: "very rich."

"It was lent to me by the lady Caiwei of Si Tianjian." Xu Qi'an's face is not red and heart is not beating. He throws the pot to the big eye beauty.

Li Yuchun nodded. "I will arrange for you to change your domicile and handle the relevant formalities first."

After a while, he and the young man squinted and led him in.

"Song Tingfeng." The man who smiles and squints introduces himself and looks up and down at Xu Qian: "you can come in and become a colleague?"

"Zhu Guangxiao." With that, the unsmiling young man stopped talking.

Xu Qi'an followed them to go through the entry procedures. On the way, song Tingfeng chatted casually:

"it's easier to work with leader Li. There are not so many intrigues. The disadvantage is that you should be careful when making money. It doesn't matter if you are greedy. Don't go too far. ""Can you give me back thirty taels of silver?" Xu Qi'an gazed at him sincerely.

Song Tingfeng back with more sincere eyes: "when did I receive your money?"

... bitch! Xu Qian grinned: "Oh, I remember wrong."

"By the way, we are going to jiaofangsi tonight. Shall we join you?" Song Tingfeng invited.

I hate this kind of decadent officialdom communication. Xu Qian smiles: "good."

After going through the formalities, song Tingfeng took him to the depths of the Yamen and explained as he walked: "there is still a process to test the qualification after entering the duty as a watchman."

"Test qualification?" Xu Qian's brain mends and hands are pressed on the crystal stone to test the picture of fighting class.

"It's the rules and procedures set by Wei Gong." Song Tingfeng said: "they are wisdom, strength and questioning."

Then they came to a loft, crossed the high threshold, and entered the hall on the first floor. Two poems were hanging on the load-bearing column:

willing to serve the dust with deep heart.

Not for self-interest.

"It was written by Duke Wei to warn us." Song Tingfeng said.

"Obviously, it doesn't work." Xu Qi'an gave him a slanting look and said something.

Song Tingfeng pretended not to understand and took him to walk in, "now you are in the refining realm, so you don't need to test your combat power. Test your intelligence first. "

He called in the officials in the attic and ordered them to go down.

A moment later, two officials came in, each holding a brocade box.

Song Tingfeng said with a smile: "one of the brocade boxes in their hands is empty, and the other has something inside. You can choose one of them to ask, but only one question. "

"And one of them only tells lies and the other only tells the truth."

Song Tingfeng "Hey" A: "you have a time to think, I can't give you any tips."

Zhu Guangxiao simply reminded: "this problem is very difficult, you think about it carefully."

Song Tingfeng nodded: "although Duke Wei said it was just a small game, few people could guess correctly. Although I realized it after the event, it's been a long time.

"It is said that only the adults of the golden gong can understand this problem within 20 breath."

The official ordered a stick of incense and put it on the side.

I don't know how many of these simple logic problems I have chewed in my last life.

Xu Qi'an turned and asked the official on the left, "if you were him, what would you tell me?"

The official was a little confused. He didn't seem to expect that Xu Qi'an would ask such a question. After thinking for a long time, he said in a dull voice: "there is nothing."

Xu Qi'an nodded and put his hand into the brocade box held by the Yamen servant on the right: "it's in this brocade box."

Song Tingfeng opened his mouth and looked stiffly at his palsy Companion: "how long?"

Zhu Guangxiao's tone was somewhat depressed: "not counting the official's stupefied Kung Fu, twelve breath..."

the air was silent for a second, and song Tingfeng arched his hand, but shook his head: "you can solve the tax case, it's not a blind cat meeting a dead mouse."

He knew Xu Qi'an. Li Yuchun was one of the chief judges of the tax case. At that time, song Tingfeng and Zhu Guangxiao were working hard outside to track down the nonexistent demons.

After the tax bank case was solved, as a participant in the case, he naturally knew the existence of Xu Qi'an.
