"If we can delay it for a while longer, the money from the winery will be enough to meet our urgent needs. But the winery is still making preparations, and we won't be able to get much money at the same time." Li Qingxian said.
"You should go back first, we can't solve this kind of thing." Zhou Hen said.
After bidding farewell to Zhou Hen, Li Qingxian was walking and thinking. Before he reached the left room of the North Road Hall, he heard shouts and curses coming from under the big locust tree in the yard.
"Those grandsons from the Demon Sect are really nothing! I saw with my own eyes that Xiao Zhang was hit by a big stone as tall as one person. I...sigh..."
"The arrogant criminal department is too poisonous. It is being tricked by the gangsters, and it is impossible to get any credit. It is dedicated to destroying our credit."
"Not only our side, the Shendu government office, the Military and Horse Department and the Beichang Guard are all criticizing the Punishment Department. This matter has spread throughout Shendu, and everyone in the city is criticizing the Demon Sect."
"Haha, what's the use of just scolding? How many years have you scolded the Demon Sect? Isn't the Depu not far outside the city just the scars on the faces of people in Shendu? Have they been torn off? They can't be torn off! There are scars under the emperor's feet.
In the Demonic Land of Death, what are they afraid of?"
"Oh, pity those brothers who were buried..."
"Thanks to Master Xiao Li who has been watching over there and using life skills to find people, otherwise more than a hundred people would have died. Those donkey eggs in the court can be solved by sending a high-ranking person..."
"Forget it, let's not mention the above matters."
Li Qingxian sighed softly and walked into the courtyard slowly.
When all the night guards saw that it was Li Qingxian, even though someone was bandaging the wound, they hurriedly stood up and saluted Li Qingxian.
"Thank you, Master Xiao Li!"
"These are the eggs my mother asked me to bring. Please don't refuse."
"This is the newly baked white flour bun..."
"This is fresh boiled corn..."
I saw a dozen night guards bringing a lot of food to them.
Li Qingxian refused repeatedly, but everyone refused to take it back, so Li Qingxian had no choice but to thank him and put it in the Qiankun Bracelet.
Everyone gathered around Li Qingxian and talked about the Battle of Changshan.
Li Qingxian didn't say anything, and everyone cursed the Demon Sect's Punishment Department.
Dong Yingdao: "Master Xiao Li, do you think we should swallow this breath like this? When have we Night Guards ever suffered such a big loss?"
The night guards looked at Li Qingxian with their bright eyes.
Li Qingxian was silent.
Han Anbo hurriedly tried to smooth things over and said: "It's different now. In the past, we were directly under the command of the guards. If something happened, all the night guard brothers dared to come together. But now the patrol department is semi-independent and is only dispatched by the internal factory. Even if Li Ke wants to invite the superiors,
Even if we take action, it won’t be easy for the higher-ups to take action.”
"Inner factory? Haha, if you bully ordinary people like us, are you pretending to be grandsons in front of the Demon Sect?"
"I thought that by following the inner factory, I would be able to shake things up, but who knew it was bullshit!"
"They're all eggless things."
"If you criticize the Demon Sect, just criticize the Demon Sect, and don't mention the inner factory." The older night guards persuaded one after another.
Li Qingxian remained silent and listened quietly to the Night Guard brothers venting their grievances.
Suddenly, the sounds in the yard stopped. Li Qingxian looked towards the door and saw the house supervisor Jun Jingguan standing outside.
This eunuch with a round face had his head wrapped in two layers of white cloth.
Li Qingxian walked over and followed Jing Guan outside.
"Why didn't you follow me then?" Li Qingxian asked.
Jing Guan said helplessly: "At that time, I saw Eunuch Fei and Eunuch Yu running away, and I was stunned on the spot. By the time I realized what I was doing, I followed you to save my life. It was already too late. I have never encountered such a thing in the palace all year round.
I ran around and got hit all over my head before I found a place to hide. Thanks to your life skills, otherwise I would have been sleepy for a few days."
"Is there something going on in the factory?" Li Qingxian asked.
Jing Guan curled his lips and said: "Duke Lu scolded Eunuch Fei, but he scolded the Demon Sect more. Eunuch Fei wanted to deal with the Demon Sect, but was scolded by Mr. Lu so badly that even if his mouth was full of broken teeth and blood,
, I have to wait until the Emperor’s birthday before vomiting. I just came to see you, nothing is wrong.”
Li Qingxian said: "The patrol department is scolding Kaitian, what is the attitude of the people in your factory?"
"Same, but what else can you do except curse? The Demon Sect is the emperor's pet peeve." After Jing Guan said this, he immediately showed regret.
Li Qingxian acted as if he didn't hear anything, and changed the topic and said, "I'm telling you, Mr. Jing, your factory is a little unkind this time."
"how?"
"You really can't pay a penny for the patrol department's pension?"
Jing Guan said helplessly: "It's not that we won't come out, it's that we really can't interfere. How about I report it to Mr. Yan and go to the Ministry of Household Affairs to urge him?"
"If the Ministry of Revenue was willing to listen to your internal factories, it wouldn't keep delaying it."
"These old gluttons who swallow gold..." Jing Guan gritted his teeth in hatred.
"We all thought that only the Night Guard was in decline, but we didn't expect that the inner factory was also in decline." Li Qingxian mocked.
Jing Guan blushed and said: "You can't say that. In special times, you can't let go. When the emperor's birthday is over, the inner factory will have to settle the general accounts with the Ministry of Punishment."
"Not one of the supervisors sent by the inner factory is dead. Are you really willing to fall out with the Criminal Department over the people from the Patrol Department?" Li Qingxian sneered.
Jing Guan turned his head and looked at the weeds on the courtyard wall without saying a word.
Li Qingxian thought for a while and said: "Ye Wei's grievances are a bit big. We can't do anything with the Criminal Department, but we can't do without our attitude and spirit. Well, do you a favor, go to Master Yan and say that you are here to patrol
Si read it over and cursed the Ministry of Punishment, at least to let Mr. Yan know that people's hearts are broken and it's hard to lead the team."
"Master Yan knows."
"It's one thing for Master Yan to know, but it's another thing for you to say." Li Qingxian said.
Jing Dian nodded and said: "Okay, it's easy to talk to me anyway, and it can make the brothers in the patrol department feel at ease. Even if Lord Yan scolds me, it's still worth it."
After watching Jing Guan leave, Li Qingxian pondered for a while before returning to Chunfeng Residence.
Zhou Chunfeng was not there, and an hour later, there was a noise at the door.
"What?" Zhou Chunfeng stepped in.
Li Qingxian looked up and saw that Zhou Chunfeng's complexion was better than when he saw it during the day, but it was still much worse than usual.
"Uncle Zhou, the Ye Wei brothers are very resentful and I can't suppress them." Li Qingxian complained.
"As the head of the department, it is our basic duty to appease the morale of the military." Zhou Chunfeng walked behind the table.
"Yes, I have a way to appease the morale of the soldiers, but you may not let me use it."
"Oh?" Zhou Chunfeng looked at Li Qingxian.
Zhou Hen blinked, feeling that this little bastard was going to cause trouble again.
Li Qingxian smiled and said: "I have a way now. First, let the brothers in the patrol department vent their evil spirits and unleash evil fire to unite the morale of the army. Secondly, we can make our family in the patrol department rich and have money to pay out pensions."
"Say." Zhou Chunfeng sat on the chair.
"What are the traditional arts of our factory guards?" Li Qingxian asked.
Zhou Chunfeng said nothing.
"Searching the house."
Zhou Chunfeng pondered for a moment, took out the cyan account book from the lucky silverbait bag, and said: "I have discussed with Mr. Yan that you have to do it, but it is not suitable to do it before the holy birthday. You have to wait."
Li Qingxian smiled and said: "What if the target is the Mingshan rebellious party who wants to disrupt Shengshou, and accidentally discovers the officials of the Ministry of Punishment?"
"It's hard to discover by chance. People in the Demon Sect are very careful these days." Zhou Chunfeng said.
"As long as you lend me your seal, official hat and official uniform, and borrow the fortune of the Patrol Department and the inner factory, anyone in the Criminal Department who is below the middle grade will definitely go wherever I tell them to go!" Li Qingxian said.
"I have heard of this kind of fortune-telling, but most of them fail."
