Chapter 745 Officialdom...
Opening the door, Fu Qingzhou saw the old site of the Wulin League that was silent in the middle of the night... Of course, it should now be called the Xuan League General Altar.
"Sir, you have just woken up, why don't you go to bed first..." The emissary behind him whispered to persuade.
But before he finished speaking, Fu Qingzhou turned back and smiled at him: "I have slept for three days, and I have had enough rest."
The secret envoy followed and smiled: "Yes."
"Is there anything special that needs to be reported in these three days? Let's talk about it now."
Fu Qingzhou said as he sat down at the stone table in the small courtyard.
The secret envoy also sat down: "There is a message from the capital that Master Ning of Mijianlou has recovered a little and is coming to Luoyi."
Fu Qingzhou was startled: "Ning Wuwu? He's coming too... okay, what else?"
"In addition, the second lady is coming soon."
The secret envoy said: "She sent a message and said that she would transfer a few people from the Northern Xinjiang Army to help."
"Ha, that's really the best." Fu Qingzhou smiled.
Next, the emissary reported several more things, but none of them were major.
For example, Qiu Chan has already set off for the capital as per his request.
For example, Zhao Hao, who set out from the capital of Shu at the same time, has been taken to the underworld in the capital and served with delicious food and drink.
But it is said that this guy made an angry accusation in the underworld.
"Even if I starve to death, I will not eat a bite of pickles and steamed buns!"
In this regard, the special envoy of Mingjiange gave important instructions - "Then starve him to death, Mingjiange Now that I’m short of money, it’s a good thing that I didn’t ask him for food expenses.”
In addition to these trivial things, there are three relatively important things.
The first thing is... shake people!
It was probably the battle on the official road that really irritated several Dongtian seniors - they started to shake people like crazy in the past three days!
Fu Qingzhou now has some background and reputation in the world, but after all, how long has he been out of the world? How does it compare with these old Jianghu?
Does he know how many reclusive masters there are in those ravines?
Does he know how many ancestors, elders, etc. are hidden in certain old sects?
Of course he doesn’t know and doesn’t know clearly.
But these old people know it!
They can also shake people who Fu Qingzhou can shake; they can also shake people who Fu Qingzhou cannot shake!
This is a thing.
In addition, because Fu Qingzhou, Zhao Xia, and Lan Jingsong had said that they would formally present the Eight Swords of Kings through the Xuan Alliance Ceremony, therefore, during these three days, these two people strongly suggested that Xuan The alliance ceremony is ahead of schedule.
“Can’t wait?”
Fu Qingzhou smiled: "What's the rush? It only takes half a month. Friends from other Jianghu sects are here. Don't you need time? Let them wait."
Now I want to give you the divine sword. , I’m not in a hurry, you still want to rush me?
You are so beautiful.
What happened to King Xishuo? What happened to the owner of Qianfangbaixiaolou?
Waiting the same!
"The third thing..." The emissary scratched his head: "Wen Renjun, the prefect of Luoyi, has always wanted to see you. Judging from his appearance, he has prepared many gifts, even for our other brothers, but we dare not ask for them. ."
"Now...he should still be waiting in the meeting hall."
Fu Qingzhou raised his eyebrows.
The prefect of Luoyi?
You don’t even know him?
At this time, the secret envoy lowered his voice and reminded: "This person used to have a very good relationship with Jiang Baichuan. He commanded the envoys and others to come here to encircle and suppress Jiang Baichuan. This person was also extremely diligent..."
Fu Qingzhou suddenly understood .
I am worried about my career.
Then what’s the use of looking for yourself?
“Let’s go and meet him.” Fu Qingzhou smiled.
"Now?"
The secret envoy was slightly startled: "Actually, as an adult, as an adult, even if you let him wait until tomorrow morning, it will be fine."
"Everyone will wake up tomorrow morning, I will go to bed After being here for so long, there must be things to deal with." Fu Qingzhou stood up and said, "Today's work is over, let's go and make arrangements." Then, leave quickly.
After he left, Fu Qingzhou held his hand on the hilt of the German sword.
"Brother Hua, have you looked for me in the past few days?"
He asked secretly in his heart.
Dejian conveyed a calm emotion, obviously there was none.
Not for three days... Fu Qingzhou frowned.
I don’t know what kind of changes there are, I hope everything is safe for Brother Hua. Now that we have reached this point, there is no point in worrying anymore.
As for Huijue's position...
Fu Qingzhou held the lantern bell of the Sea of Bitterness.
Same as before, after closing your eyes, you can catch a glimpse of a faint light in the endless darkness, but it is much farther than before.
"Master Huikong's methods are still powerful. I wonder if he will come to this Xuanmeng Conference?"
Before leaving the capital, Fu Qingzhou also went to Jinchan Temple to invite Huikong. , but the other party was noncommittal.
The situation is different now. I wonder if he will come... If he comes, there will probably be no suspense about the position of the leader of the Xuan Alliance.
Fu Qingzhou put away the Kuhai lantern bell, took a long breath, and walked towards the conference hall.
As for that dream...
Let’s talk about it later.
……
"Master Fu! Master Fu!"
As soon as he pushed open the door of the meeting hall, before Fu Qingzhou could react, he saw a man rushing towards him with open arms and howling. He was startled and quickly took a step back. The envoy of Mingjiang Pavilion at the side had quick eyesight and quick hands and stopped this person immediately.
"Prefect Wen."
The secret envoy said solemnly: "Speak slowly."
The one who was stopped was naturally Wen Renjun, the prefect of Luoyi.
But the reason why he was able to scare Fu Qingzhou was naturally because... he didn't look like a prefect at all.
He was not wearing official clothes, and the clothes on his body exuded a sour smell. He was also very slovenly, with messy and uncombed hair, a dry and knotted beard, and two deep dark circles under his eyes.
"You are..."
Fu Qingzhou frowned: "Prefect Wen?"
"It's the official..." Wen Renjun took two steps back, his tone was sad, and he bowed deeply to Fu Qingzhou: "Please, Mr. Fu, save me!"
Fu Qingzhou blinked and looked aside. 's emissary.
"Master Wen will be demoted to the county magistrate in the next month, fined three years' salary, and publicly reprimanded in the court." The secret envoy lowered his head and said.
Fu Qingzhou raised his eyebrows and glanced at Wen Renjun, who had a grimace on his face: "That's not bad."
Although he didn't understand the official system very well, he could indeed listen. Come on, it's okay.
Wen Renjun had a good relationship with Jiang Baichuan before, but now that Jiang Baichuan's incident happened, neither he nor Magistrate Wen was implicated... This time he was punished, most likely because he hastily invited Li Jingzhe and others, which resulted in a large number of casualties.
Of course, is he responsible in this matter? Not much indeed.
But there is definitely still a responsibility.
As the prefect, Jiang Baichuan is hiding under your rule, but before you invited Mingjiange and the Forbidden Army, you did not understand the information in advance and made the plan in a hurry, which led to such a big accident. It is impossible for the court to go unpunished for any mistakes.
But it’s just a demotion and a salary fine. How big of a deal is this?
"No, Master Fu!"
Zhifu Wen said with a mournful face: "I am going to be punished as a magistrate in a small town on the border of northern Xinjiang!"
Fu Qingzhou raised his eyebrows again.
Ah...then this is a bit of a distribution.
"Prefect Wen."
Fu Qingzhou smiled: "I am neither your superior nor your friend, so why should I save you."
"Xiaguan..."
Wen Renjun pursed his lips: " I know that your Excellency is very concerned about the Xuanmeng Ceremony, so I can help you with this Xuanmeng Ceremony!"
"Oh?" Fu Qingzhou asked again: "The prefect can help me. What kind of power?”
“...Xiaguan still has some wealth over the years.”
Wen Renjun gritted his teeth and said: "As long as Mr. Fu needs it, everything is fine..."
"Stop!"
Fu Qingzhou glared at him: "Are you trying to bribe me?"
“I don’t dare! I don’t dare!” Wen Renjun buried his head even lower: “What I mean is that if you need to use the power of the rivers and lakes to encircle and suppress Jiang Baichuan, you have to get some winnings. Right? I would like to... be the icing on the cake."
Fu Qingzhou smiled: "I have already prepared these things, so I am not in short supply."
"Natural! Natural!"
Wen Renjun said quickly: "I have something else, too!"
His expression tightened and he quietly glanced at the emissary.
Fu Qingzhou also smiled at the emissary.
The secret envoy understood and said no more. He bowed and left quickly, not forgetting to close the door.
Until then, Wen Renjun lowered his voice and whispered: "Master Fu, I heard that you and Master Yue Hengyue are brothers, right?"
Fu Qingzhou was startled.
Why does this matter involve Yue Heng?
“Nowadays, everyone knows that Mr. Yue is highly valued by His Majesty.” Wen Renjun said softly: “This matter is a bit mysterious - everyone knows that he is from the Yuan family. Everyone knows that he is a popular person around His Majesty, but at the same time, everyone knows that His Majesty has had some minor frictions with the aristocratic family recently..."
"Not long ago, Mr. Yue joined forces with Mr. Bai of the Privy Council to join the Ministry of Personnel. Ye Maojie's book exposed the corruption of the former minister and asked his Majesty to dismiss him and punish him. "
"But everyone knows, Ye Maojie, he is also a member of the Yuan family."
"After this incident, although Lord Yuan didn't say anything, Lord Yue must be..."
Fu Qingzhou Hearing this, his brain was swollen, and he frowned and interrupted him: "Prefect Wen, what exactly do you want to say?"
"Hey, hey."
Wen Renjun said with a smile: "Master Fu , In fact, Xiaguan is also attached to the Yuan family..."
Fu Qingzhou's pupils paused.
“But this time, because the trap that the official is trying to poke is too big, they no longer care about me.”
Wen Renjun’s sneer turned into a bitter smile: “The incident in Wuli Village, the official will also ignore it. I heard that Master Fu said that he wanted to use the Xuanmeng Ceremony to encircle and suppress Jiang Baichuan, but more importantly, he was actually the person behind Jiang Baichuan, right?"
Fu Qingzhou's expression calmed down.
He smiled: "You continue."
Wen Renjun's eyes lit up, knowing that he had grasped the key point, and he quickly said: "The Yuan family and the Lan family are the same family. They are both families that have existed longer than Dayan. The power behind Jiang Baichuan is huge, even if it is not their two families. , and they have nothing to do with it!”
“Master Fu can’t just deal with them with fists and kicks, he must also do what should be done in the officialdom, before...”
He clasped his hands together: "It's like being sandwiched between two sides!"
