girl let me check

Chapter 292 Who doesn’t dare?

Although he was secretly complaining in his heart, Fang Weihan's appearance skills were still quite good, and his salute posture was very standard. Even the maids in the palace could not fault him at all.

When she was a child, Xie Lingwan emphasized more than once that this kind of etiquette would be useful in the future and she always forced herself to learn it. Fang Weihan was very resistant when he was a child, but in the end he couldn't resist his childhood sweetheart's request and learned a lot of knowledge in this area.

Unexpectedly, the prophecy has come true now.

Fang Weihan respectfully took over the official robe and official seal from Shi Dangliu.

The Great Zhou Dynasty followed the old system, with civil servants uniformly wearing long robes and military officers wearing short uniforms. The colors of the two were unified and coordinated, and the costumes were different for men and women.

Those of the first to third grades wear dark purple official uniforms and are distinguished by embroidery. The fourth and fifth ranks wear crimson official uniforms, the fourth rank wears dark crimson color, and the fifth rank wears light crimson color. Those in the sixth and seventh grades wear green official uniforms, and those in the eighth and ninth grades wear cyan.

The official position that Fang Weihan was appointed to was the fourth rank of the East Palace Guards. The official uniform was dark crimson, with a white mythical beast embroidered on the chest. The materials used were luxurious and exquisite, showing the majesty of the imperial court.

"Go find a place in the back to change into."

Shi Dangliu ordered him.

"Teacher, don't you have anything to tell me?"

Fang Weihan looked at him eagerly.

We have been working together sincerely not long ago, and now you are so coldly ignoring me?

Damn old man, are you sorry?

"What is pure will become clear by itself, and what is turbid will become turbid by itself. It is useless to talk too much."

Shi Dangliu snorted coldly, showing his masterly demeanor.

Even though Fang Weihan was already familiar with his temper, he was still very angry.

But then Shi Dangliu added another sentence.

"If you have any confusion, you might as well go directly to the palace to meet the saint. Why bother here, a scholar like me?"

This can be regarded as a reluctant reminder to myself.

Okay, so you old boy has some humanity.

Shi Dangliu continued to read out the results of the investiture, while Fang Weihan bid farewell to Shi Dangliu and prepared to go to the bottom of the high platform, hoping to find an empty room to change into official uniform.

But he thought about it and decided that it would be better to say hello to the big guys on the high platform first.

He went to the civil servants' house first and found Zhou Liangyi who was chatting and laughing with others.

"uncle."

As soon as Fang Weihan opened his mouth, Zhou Liangyi glared at him angrily.

"Who is your uncle? Don't come here to get close. Do I have anything to do with you?"

The surrounding officials were all seasoned. Seeing Zhou Liangyi's sudden change of expression, they all retreated, obviously not wanting to get involved in the family affairs between the two of them.

Every time Zhou Liangyi sees this kid now, she feels that she is in a bad mood, as if she is holding a breath and can't get out.

"Lingwan's engagement with you has been terminated, and there is no longer any relationship between us."

Zhou Liangyi said coldly.

"Uncle, don't say such angry words. With the relationship between Lingwan and I, you also know that this is impossible."

Fang Weihan continued to get close to Zhou Liangyi as if he didn't see Zhou Liangyi's expression at all.

"Don't call me uncle."

Zhou Liangyi was furious again.

He stared at Fang Weihan, and after a while he sighed feebly.

"You...it's best to stay calm during this period of time and don't cause any more trouble, you know? Last time, Lingwan had already made a great sacrifice for your sake, and with her in Chen County The foundation of power in the Xie family has been shaken."

"If you do something as embarrassing as last time, I, the Runan Zhou family, will never end up in this situation."

In fact, Zhou Liangyi originally wanted to give Fang Weihan a beating, and asked again: I really don't know what my niece likes about you, so that she would do this for you.

But he thought of what Fang Weihan had done a few days ago, and he couldn't say these words anymore.

Putting aside personal prejudices and preconceived stereotypes, Fang Weihan is indeed a very qualified royal vassal and a good marriage partner.

In addition, his niece and he truly love each other, so logically speaking, he really shouldn't have too many fingers.

"Don't worry, uncle, it will never happen again."

Fang Weihan nodded quickly as if pounding garlic.

"Don't fucking call me uncle..."

Zhou Liangyi weakly waved her hand, signaling him to get out of here.

Fang Weihan knew the details of the head of the Runan Zhou family, so he dared to shamelessly get close to him.

He is the youngest among the heads of the eight-surnamed family. He is only in his thirties now, so his mentality is still relatively young.

Fang Weihan had heard a lot about his romantic affairs when he was a child, so naturally he couldn't think of any respect. This Zhou Liangyi had indeed taken good care of Xie Lingwan in the past, and had cast a crucial vote in the last court confrontation. Fang Weihan was deeply grateful to him.

Wanwan’s family must build a good relationship with her.

Fang Weihan planned to pay a visit to the Runan Zhou family sometime, and chat with his uncle who was more of a biological uncle than a real uncle.

After bidding farewell to Zhou Liangyi, he looked in the direction of Pei Wenqi, the other leader of the civil service this time, the head of the Pei family in Hedong.

The Pei family in Hedong is one of the three families in Heshuo. The main family industry is spiritual stone and mineral mining. He controls most of the spiritual stone veins in Da Zhou, and the iron ore in Guangping County, Jizhou, and has a near monopoly on this aspect of trade.

Spirit stones can be artificially controlled to gently output spiritual power, and are the energy supply raw materials for formations. It is also a luxury item for monks to assist in their practice. It is often used for lighting and heating in daily life. The daily operation of Dazhou society is inseparable from spiritual stones.

The Hedong Pei family made a lot of money from the trade and mining of spiritual stones and iron ore, and was known as Pei Bancheng in Hedong County.

The attitude of the Uehara Wang family and Fang Weihan is basically a fight to the death. As a die-hard ally of the Uehara Wang family, the Hedong Pei family's attitude towards him is naturally not much better, so Fang Weihan is hesitating whether he wants to Chat with Pei Wenqi.

Just when Fang Weihan was hesitating, Pei Wenqi noticed him and took the initiative to say hello:

"His Royal Highness Prince Guangling, congratulations on the investiture!"

Fang Weihan was a little surprised, but still walked over and returned the greeting.

"Master Pei, you're welcome."

He answered with a smile, but he was secretly thinking about the purpose of Pei Wenqi finding him to take the initiative to talk to him.

The Uehara Wang family and I already have that kind of relationship, and Pei Wenqi is still communicating closely with me in public. Could it be that he wants to betray the Heshuo family?

Fang Weihan's brows wrinkled imperceptibly.

This matter is full of doubts and cannot be judged rashly. It requires further observation and consideration.

"His Royal Highness King Guangling was promoted to the East Palace Guards. It happens that my Hedong Pei family's residence is near the East Palace. Your Highness will be able to move around more when you have nothing to do. It happens that it can also help me save a security fee."

Pei Wenqi smiled half-jokingly.

"Master Pei is joking. I will definitely pay you a visit when the time comes... As for this security matter, I don't have a single soldier in my hands right now. I'm afraid I have to stand guard for Master Pei myself."

Fang Weihan laughed and responded in the same tone.

I had long heard that Pei Wenqi of the Hedong Pei family was very humorous and could get along with anyone. Now it turned out to be true.

Unlike the Uehara Wang family, who is domineering and indifferent, and the Fanyang Lu family, who is rough and direct, the Hedong Pei family is the most all-rounded family among the three families in Heshuo.

This may also be related to the fact that they want to do business with the aristocratic families south of the Yangtze River. If they are not popular, how can they continue to do business?

"Don't worry, Your Highness, it will happen in the future."

Pei Wenqi smiles like a good old man. His appearance is deceptive and can easily make people lower their guard.

Just when he was about to say something else, he heard Shi Dangliu's voice echoing in his ears:

"Pei Jie is talented and quick-thinking, good at studying, and able to make chariots and ruts. He was awarded the rank of Shaofu Caiguan Xiaowei, with the title of seventh grade."

Visible to the naked eye, Pei Wenqi's face became much gloomier.

Fang Weihan keenly noticed this change, so he said goodbye with a smile:

"Master Pei, I and the adults from the military attaché side have not paid a visit. How about we talk next time?"

"Your Highness, walk slowly."

Pei Wenqi's smile seemed a little forced.

Fang Weihan reasoned in his mind as he walked towards the general.

It seems that the result of Pei Jie's conferment was an unexpected surprise to Pei Wenqi. Maybe he didn't want Pei Jie to serve as a military officer? Or some other reason...

He knew so little information that he still couldn't deduce much. The only thing he knew was that the relationship between Pei Jie and his father might indeed be as bad as the rumors. Pei Jie walked up to the high platform, received his official uniform, and was stopped by Pei Wenqi, who looked gloomy. The two of them walked to the corner together, and the atmosphere looked very bad.

This is an internal matter within the Hedong Pei family, and Fang Weihan has no position to interfere.

He knew Pei Jie's transcendent talent in the Mohist Path, and he had to ensure Pei Jie's life safety... As for this kind of thing, he still had to rely on himself.

Perhaps, he could rely on this matter to draw Pei Jie into his camp?

Fang Weihan visited Gao Jing again. At this moment, he was standing with Fang Xuanmei, the king of Pingyuan, talking about something.

Gao Jing noticed Fang Weihan's approach and took the lead to greet him cordially:

"His Royal Highness the King of Guangling, farewell to you in the inner city. It's been a long time since I last saw you! Your Highness is as heroic as ever, even better than the dragon and the phoenix among men."

"Master Gao is ridiculously complimentary. Xiao Wang cannot bear such comments and is very ashamed."

The corners of Fang Weihan's mouth twitched and he spoke modestly.

This Gao Jing is a typical official from an aristocratic family. He really doesn't want to talk to this kind of person. It's just a waste of time and pointless nonsense.

"His Royal Highness King Pingyuan? How should Weihan call you?"

Fang Weihan turned to Fang Xuanmei and asked respectfully.

The Pingyuan King who usually treated everyone equally showed a smile when facing Fang Weihan.

"Your second uncle and I have met once before, and I can be considered half of your uncle. We are the third in the family, so you can just call me third uncle."

"Uncle Three."

Fang Weihan immediately cupped his fists and saluted.

Gao Jing nodded to Fang Weihan and backed away knowingly.

"In this appointment, you have won the position of East Palace Guardsman. What do you think? Is it still to your liking?"

Fang Xuanmei asked.

Is it to my liking? If I say we don't agree, can I withdraw my ability?

Fang Weihan complained secretly.

"To be honest, it's a bit beyond expectations."

After a moment of silence, he answered truthfully.

"Oh? Why did it exceed expectations?"

Fang Xuanmei asked with interest.

"too big."

Fang Weihan only said three words, concisely and to the point.

"It's not a problem whether you're big or small. Since Your Majesty decided to give you this official position, he thinks that your ability is enough for this position."

Fang Xuanmei said with a smile.

"But there are big difficulties, right? I know you must have a lot of doubts in your heart, so the Holy One asked me to specially attend the investiture ceremony of Qinghuo Academy, just to give you a message."

"It's not convenient to say more here. Tomorrow morning, the Holy Lord will be waiting for you in Yuanhui Hall."

Fang Weihan was shocked.

Good guy, has Fang Zundu arranged a schedule for me? Am I so important?

"I understand, Weihan. Thank you very much, Third Uncle. I will definitely enter the palace on time to meet the Holy Emperor tomorrow."

Fang Weihan solemnly agreed.

"Well, that's right."

Fang Xuanmei patted his shoulder.

"If you have anything to do, you can come to me at the camp in the north of the city. I still have something to do, so I'll take the first step."

"Third uncle, walk slowly."

Fang Xuanmei left in a hurry. As a sharp blade in the emperor's hand, he was used to hiding in the shadows, and he was obviously not used to such occasions.

"What kind of cultivation does this Fang Xuanmei have?"

Fang Weihan asked Yun Shu in his mind.

"In the early stages of Mingwu rank six. Stronger than Tao Yunjiang, but weaker than Xiao Fuwei and Chen Yuxian."

Yun Shu answered quickly.

"Didn't you say that people in the royal family can't cultivate to a very high level? What happened to him?"

Fang Weihan asked with a frown.

"Can't you also cultivate to the point of becoming a god?"

The girl replied lazily, as if turning over in his sea of ​​consciousness.

"This Fang Xuanmei is probably based on a principle. The blood concentration is too low and the luck carried by the body is too small, so that the cultivation talent has not been completely offset."

Fang Weihan breathed a sigh of relief and kept this matter in his heart.

He continued walking towards the back of the high platform.

Wang Zhiyou and Shen Yuanxing were talking to their future colleagues, and when they saw Fang Weihan coming, they all came to say hello.

"Brother Fang, this is a high official. From now on, I will be called Master Fang!"

"Weihan, how did you get to be such a big official? Did you seek sainthood?"

Fang Weihan answered them all with a smile and declined the suggestion to talk to their colleagues.

He walked all the way back and finally saw the person he was looking for.

"Why so slow? I'm almost bored to death waiting!"

"As an apprentice, you have left your master here for so long. Do you really take me as your master seriously?"

Tao Yunjiang hugged his crimson official uniform and complained to Fang Weihan.

"I have just been appointed. I have to have some exchanges and entertainment, otherwise I will not be able to hang out in Changming in the future."

Fang Weihan glared at her angrily.

"You think I'm the same as you?"

"As you know, I really have nothing to say to them."

The girl pursed her lips in embarrassment.

"If grandpa hadn't asked me to come to the investiture ceremony, I wouldn't have even wanted to come today...ah, I didn't want to come to the investiture, but I would have come to accompany you."

Fang Weihan pinched her cheek in a funny way and held her other hand that was not holding the clothes.

"How about finding a place to change?"

According to the tradition left over from the past, the students of Qinghuo Academy who have been awarded the honors will have to wear official uniforms and go out soon. There are many common people at the door, so they can't be careless.

"Okay."

Tao Yunjiang agreed nonchalantly, and then stiffened as if he suddenly reacted.

"You...change with me?"

The girl held the clothes and carefully checked.

"No way? I've already touched it..."

Fang Weihan asked in surprise, then narrowed his eyes and smiled:

"Or... Yunjiang, you have never seen me without clothes, so you don't dare?"

When the girl who was originally a little shy heard this, she was instantly unconvinced.

She quickened her pace and dragged Fang Weihan forward. The attractive pink color spread from the side of her face to her earlobes.

"Who dares not to dare! Just change it!"
