Chapter 436
Min Shan didn’t know that the sealed artifact in sang Bo’s case was actually monk Shen Shu of the Buddhist sect. He didn’t know the stakes involved.
........
The Inland-water transport ship slowly docked at the dock. On the deck of a three-masted sailboat, dozens of Watchmen stood.
Yang Yan and Jiang Luzhong led a group of night watchmen and left the official ship. The group looked at the capital that they had not seen for a long time and felt extremely excited.
This was especially so for the Vanguard team of Jiang Luzhong and provincial governor Zhang. They had left the capital city for more than two months in the middle of winter. By the time they returned, it was already the time when the Willow branches had sprouted and everything was new.
Li Yuchun beckoned song tingfeng and Zhu guangxiao over and said in a deep voice, “”After the report, we’ll go pay our respects to Ning Yan.”
Song tingfeng and Zhu guangxiao nodded with heavy expressions.
More than a month had passed since Xu ningyan’s death in battle. The sorrow that had surged like a tide at that time had now settled in their hearts, and they had become colleagues and subordinates that they would always remember.
Many years later, when she recalled that lively young man, she might still feel a faint sorrow and regret.
Yang Yan, who was walking in front, turned around. He was expressionless, but his voice was very low.”I’ll go too.”
“I want to see his Majesty, so I won’t be going with you.” Provincial governor Zhang sighed. Tomorrow, I’ll bring my wife and children to pay our respects.”
He had a lot of things to do, so he definitely wouldn’t have the time to pay a visit to Xu ningyan’s grave tomorrow.
This group of people had been floating on the water since they had arrived in Qingzhou. They had not received any letters from the Imperial court, so they did not know that Xu Qi ‘an had come back to life.
Not only had Xu Qi ‘an been resurrected, but he had also solved a murder case in the palace.
Soon, they arrived at the watchman’s Yamen.
..........
On the other side, Xu Qi ‘an brought Zhong Li out of the Golden Jade Hall and was about to visit his own Hall. Zhong Li was walking when she suddenly noticed that Xu Qi’ an had stopped.
She first glanced at Xu Qi ‘an, then followed his gaze to the Yamen gate. There, a group of travel-worn night watchmen crossed the threshold ... They were all frozen there.
They were like stone statues.
who is this person? why does he look so similar to Xu ningyan ...
“Do we have such a Yin Gong in our Yamen ...”
my eyes must be playing tricks on me. I think I saw Xu ningyan. No, Xu ningyan isn’t that handsome ...
“Are they Blood Brothers? but Xu ningyan doesn’t have any brothers ....
One question after another appeared in the mind of the night watchman who was returning South.
I’m most afraid of the air suddenly becoming quiet,. ‘m most afraid of the memories suddenly rolling around in pain,. ‘m most afraid of suddenly seeing your figure ... Xu Qi ‘an felt that the lyrics were perfectly in line with their current state of mind.
He smiled awkwardly but politely. “Hello everyone, my name is Xu Qian.”
They would meet again sooner or later, but in Xu Qi ‘an’s mind, the right way to open it was:
After Yang Yan and the others returned to the capital, they learned from their colleagues in the Yamen that he had been resurrected. They were overjoyed and then ran over like wild dogs, hugging him and crying.
He had not expected such an awkward reunion.
It must be Zhong Li who brought me bad luck.
Li Yuchun stared at Xu Qi ‘an and used all her strength to speak in a trembling voice, “”You, you are Xu ningyan?”
The others didn’t say anything. They just looked at him in silence and held their breaths.
“It’s me. I didn’t die.” Xu Qi ‘an said with a smile.
After hearing his answer, the other side was silent for more than ten seconds. Song tingfeng suddenly screamed and ran into Xu Qi ‘an’s arms, hugging him tightly.
“Why aren’t you dead? you’re clearly dead.”
“What’s with the drastic change in appearance? How did you resurrect? tell us.”
“Alive, it’s really alive ... It’s warm.”
The night watchmen surrounded Xu Qi ‘an and talked to him excitedly.
I’ll explain later, I’ll explain later ...
Xu Qi ‘an pushed song tingfeng and the others away. He pointed at the silver Gong symbol on his chest and said to Li Yuchun, “”Boss, I’ve become a silver Gong.”
Li Yuchun put his hands behind his back and pretended to be calm. He nodded and said, “”Not bad, my hard work in nurturing him was not in vain.”
“Zhong Li, come here. I’ll introduce you to my boss,” Xu Qi ‘an said, waving his hand.
It was only then that Li Yuchun saw Zhong Li ...
His hair was dry and messy, his coarse robe was full of wrinkles, and his embroidered shoes had not been washed for. long time, so his face could not be seen ... Li Yuchun felt as if a cold snake had slithered past his back, and his scalp went numb.
He revealed a look of fear and retreated, he pointed at Zhong Li and roared, ”
which family’s young lady is this? which family’s young lady is this!!!
“Zhong Li, you can go to my one blade Hall first, turn right in front.” Xu Qi ‘an quickly sent his fifth Senior Sister away.
“Oh!”
Zhong Li lowered her head and walked away, feeling wronged.
Li Yuchun felt as if a heavy burden had been lifted off her shoulders. The goosebumps on her arms slowly disappeared.
Next, Xu Qi ‘an explained in detail how he had come back to life.
“The birth transformation pill, a pill that can allow one to shed their old body and obtain a new one? He heard that His Majesty had asked the supervisor for it before, but the supervisor didn’t give it to him ... Is that Yan Caiwei your lover?” Jiang Luzhong clicked his tongue and sighed.
...
After listening to his explanation, some of the night watchmen who did not know about the reborn pill suddenly realized.
When the emotions of his colleagues had gradually stabilized, Xu Qi ‘an put his arm around song tingfeng’s shoulder and said, “”Let’s go to the Imperial Academy to have fun tonight.”
“I won’t go to the Imperial Academy anymore,” song tingfeng shook his head and said.
He glanced at Xu Qi ‘an and said righteously, “”I’m no longer who I used to be. The song tingfeng now is a man who is determined to forge ahead and cultivate hard.
“Ningyan, you will change, and so will I. You can’t look at me like you did before.”
Xu Qi ‘an looked at him in surprise. In the month after his death, song tingfeng had indeed become more steady and determined.
well said, tingfeng, ” Li Yuchun praised. you’ve changed the most during this trip to Yunzhou. I’m very gratified.”
Song tingfeng smiled calmly.
Xu Qi ‘an clapped his hands and looked at everyone. “After everyone’s report on their work, let’s go to the academy for a drink tonight. My treat.”
After that, Xu Qi ‘an put his arm around Zhu guangxiao’s shoulder and said, “”I still owe you five times of the Imperial Academy’s open court, and I’ve written a pledge.”
His colleagues were overjoyed.
...
Song tingfeng swallowed his saliva. ningyan, I’m also in the agreement ... Tonight, I’m also going to the Imperial Academy for a drink.”
“You can’t go,”
Xu Qi ‘an’s face was serious, and he said righteously, ” you’re no longer the song tingfeng of the past. Drinking, making merry, and letting loose will be done by guangxiao and me. You’re the song tingfeng who is determined to forge ahead.
...........
The Buddhist diplomatic mission’s stop was the three yang courier station in the west of the city, which was also the largest courier station in the outer city. It had a courtyard with two entrances and three hundred-year-old Willows.
That was where the name came from.
The relay station’s guard walked out of the main gate, looked around for a while, and then entered a small alley without a word.
In the alley, a young man in a watchman’s uniform stood. He had one hand on his saber, his back against the wall, and a piece of silver in his hand. He had been waiting for a long time.
“Milord, this is the name list of the Western Region’s diplomatic mission. The leading Grandmaster’s Buddhist name is” du ‘e.””
The courier handed over the note and his eyes swept over the pieces of silver.”Grandmaster du ‘e has just been summoned to the palace and is not in the station.”
“Well done.”
Xu Qi ‘an flicked his finger, and the silver pieces flew in an arc and were caught by the courier. The latter smiled and said,”Thank you, my Lord.”
After sending the courier away, Xu Qi ‘an quickly took off the night watchman’s uniform. Then, he took out a monk’s robe from the fragment of the nether world Book and put it on.
He touched his crew-cut hair and comforted himself,
It could be longer.
A few minutes later, a masculine and handsome monk walked out of the alley, his monk robe fluttering.
When he arrived at the entrance of the courier station, it was not a courier station that was guarding the door, but two young monks.
“Senior brother, how should I address you?”
Two young monks came up to him and blocked his way.
Xu Qi ‘an put his hands together and chanted, “”Amitabha. I’m Hengyuan from the Azure Dragon Temple. I’ve come to visit my fellow sect members who came from the Western Region.”
Azure Dragon Temple. Heng Yuan ... The two monks were not easy to fool. They looked at Xu Qi ‘an and said, “Senior brother Hengyuan didn’t keep his precepts? ”
“I’m a warrior monk.” Xu Qi ‘an’s tone was as if he was saying, ” I’m the only one who knows my secret.
The two monks no longer had any questions and their tone instantly became polite. “Senior brother Hengyuan, please come in!”
