Chapter 798 Watcher

The next morning, Xu Qian put on a smart outfit, looked at himself in the bronze mirror with thick black eyebrows and sharp eyes, and nodded with satisfaction.

The yamen of the watchman organization was some distance away from Xu's mansion. Xu Qi'an walked through the streets and alleys and finally arrived here.

The watchman's office was rebuilt from two courtyards with three entrances, with a towering attic. From time to time, watchmen wearing black clothes and tied with gongs would come in and out. Their expressions were stern and awe-inspiring.

When Xu Qian walked in here, he always had a familiar feeling, as if he had returned to the police academy. It was... the smell of a case.

"Who is coming?" Tong Luo, the gatekeeper, stopped Xu Qian.

"My descendant, Xu Qian, was recommended by Lu Yinluo and came to take the watchman test. This is Mr. Lu's seal of approval." Xu Qian said, neither humble nor arrogant.

The person recommended by Lu Yinluo? The two gatekeepers looked at Xu Qi'an curiously.

The watchman was initially curious about this young girl with a distinguished family background who decided to join the public life. After getting along with her for a while, everyone's attitude changed from curiosity to admiration.

To be recognized by Lu Fengyao, there must be something extraordinary about this little-known Xu Qian.

Xu Qian smiled and said, "Then I'll trouble Sun Yinluo."

I have to say that this person knows how to deal with people, and Xu Qi'an felt very comfortable communicating with him.

"The duties of a watchman are to supervise all officials, investigate cases and catch thieves, and protect the capital... You will gradually become familiar with the specific tasks in the future." Sun Yinluo said: "The last thing you have to do is to climb that building! "

Of course, he would not think that someone who was a dignified Yinluo chose to surrender because of his "bastard" spirit.

"It's not troublesome, it's not troublesome." Sun Yinluo smiled and led the way: "We are the watchmen in the yamen. The ones at the bottom are the white servants, who have no establishment and do chores. The second one is Tongluo, who is the serious watchdog. People, at least in the qi training realm, have a monthly salary of five taels of silver and two stones of rice. Going up is the silver gong and enjoys the treatment of a hundred households..."

"I won't give you away earlier. I wish brother Xu immediate success." After finishing speaking, Sun Yinluo stepped back with a smile.

Then, he saw the Phoenix Seal in Xu Qian's hand, and his eyes flashed.

The two of them looked at each other and were about to let go. At this time, a rich middle-aged man also wearing a silver armor uniform came over and said, "What's going on here?"

After the two gatekeepers Tongluo finished their explanation, the middle-aged Yinluo said, "Since I am recommended by Lu Yinluo, I will be a colleague from now on. My surname is Sun. I will take you to take the test next. How about it?" "

Xu Qian looked at the tall building in front of him with cornices and brackets and the three characters "Haoqi Tower" written on it, feeling inexplicably yearning for it.

Sun Yinluo talked eloquently: "Beyond the silver gong is the golden gong, which is the highest level position. There are only ten golden gongs in Dafeng capital, and they directly obey the orders of Wei Gong."

Xu Qian nodded. He knew this common sense. Wei Yuan, the eunuch, was the leader of the watchdog organization.

There is only one reason why the other party has such a good attitude, and that is Lu Fengyao behind Xu Qian!

In this regard, Xu Qi'an himself has a clear understanding that it is better to seek help from others than from yourself. Being strong yourself is the foundation for a stable life.

... Not to mention how Xu Qian faced the test of being a watchman. On the seventh floor of Haoqi Building, Lu Fengyao reluctantly walked into the tea room and said, "You always have trouble with me?"

Wei Yuan looked at the standing girl and said helplessly: "Yao Yao, can you restrain your behavior? During the court meeting today, Sun Shangshu of the Ministry of Punishment satirized me and said that I was lax in my duties. Connivance to commit murder..."

"I helped their Ministry of Punishment arrange a few nails, but Sun Min didn't appreciate me. He still dared to file a lawsuit against me. He really doesn't know the difference between right and wrong. I think he, the Minister of Punishment, has done his job. Old man, why don't we work together to get rid of him? How about stepping down?" Lu Fengyao encouraged.

"Get him down and replace him with one of yours? Lu Fengyao, how much sand have you mixed in the six films in the past few years? Don't think I don't know, but don't go too far." Wei Yuan called him by his name, obviously There is some warning.

Lu Fengyao said nonchalantly: "Old man, you promised my father that you would turn a blind eye to my matter. Why can't you do it now?"

"That's because you are too dangerous!" However, Wei Yuan did not say this, or even show it on his face.

For a qualified politician, keeping his emotions and anger hidden is a basic operation. Not to mention a master like Wei Yuan who has full force and strategy values.

But in Wei Yuan's eyes, this little girl who was less than twenty years old was even more dangerous than her father.

Although Lu Yuan is strong, he is just a pure martial artist, but Lu Fengyao wants to completely change the world!

In Wei Yuan's opinion, Lu Fengyao's "universal world" was just an unrealistic fantasy.

But in the past few years, Lu Fengyao has used her special status to build a wide range of connections among the military, the watchdog organization, and various government offices in the capital. Now he wants to extend his tentacles to the six officials at the core of the imperial power, which Wei Yuan does not allow.

In Wei Yuan's eyes, Dafeng was like an old man who was seriously ill, but he was not terminally ill yet. He was slowly cured, and the dead wood could spring again.

But the path Lu Fengyao took was to "dare to make the sun and moon change the sky"! It happened that the other party was Lu Yuan's daughter, and Wei Yuan was a little helpless.

Yes, Lu Fengyao had never concealed Wei Yuan's intentions in everything she had done over the years, and of course she couldn't hide it either. However, the two of them had made a three-part agreement not to disturb each other as long as they did not touch each other's bottom line.

Hiding his fear of Lu Fengyao in his heart, Wei Yuan said without changing his expression: "By the way, you recently used Zhou Xianping as bait, did you catch the person behind him?"

"No." Lu Fengyao shook her head and said: "The other party is very cautious. If a county government official hadn't seen through their method of stealing tax money this time, the amount of stolen money embezzled by Zhou Xianping would have been more than two million taels."

"However, since Zhou Xianping was demoted this time, it means that he has been regarded as an abandoned son by them. Zhou Xianping knows a lot of secrets, so the other party will definitely... kill people to silence him." A look of determination flashed in Lu Fengyao's eyes.

"Young people are terrible! I really don't understand how Lu Yuan gave birth to a daughter like you." Wei Yuan sighed, and then said: "Don't have too much hope. Zhou Xianping was given up so easily, which shows that he didn't know the inside story. It would be too much.”

"You have to give it a try, and old man, that's two million taels of silver. What do you think the mysterious force behind Zhou Xianping wants to do with so much money?"

"Conspiracy to rebel!" This is an obvious answer.

Lu Fengyao's eyes lit up and she said: "It's rare to find someone with the same idea. I just don't know what the strength of this group of people is, so it is still necessary to continue to investigate."

Wei Yuan said: "You can play as you wish, but if you really find something, remember to tell me."

"Understood!" Lu Fengyao nodded.
