Chapter 88
88 A mature double spy (1)
He dismissed the left and right … Hearing this, Nangong qianrou raised her eyebrows and looked at Xu Qi ‘an with hostility.
As a golden gong, he was actually asked to retreat by a mere copper Gong.
Wei Yuan’s expression changed slightly before he nodded, ” the two of you leave first. Yang Yan, you two keep an eye on each other and don’t eavesdrop.
Nangong qianrou looked at Xu Qi ‘an deeply.
This little Gong had only joined the night watchman for a few days, but he was frequently summoned by his foster father. In order to talk to him, his foster father even sent him and Yang Yan away.
This made Nangong qianrou very unhappy.
I was clearly here first.
After the two golden gongs left the noble spirit building, Nangong qianrou, whose appearance did not lose to Xu Erlang’s, sneered, ” the gong was actually passed by the gong under his hand. He obviously doesn’t put you in his eyes.
Yang Yan was silent.
I’m trying to drive a wedge between you and me, ” Nangong qianrou said unhappily. you’re giving me some face.
Yang Yan’s sculpted face remained expressionless as he said lightly, “”You should know his aptitude. You should know that Duke Wei wants to nurture him.”
“But it’s a fact that he doesn’t care about you.”
“You think I care?” Yang Yan asked.
Nangong qianrou rolled her eyes in a flirtatious manner. yes, yes, yes, ” she said grumpily. he’s your soldier after all. You still owe him.
Yang Yan nodded.
Nangong qianrou turned around and left, smiling sinisterly. boring. Let’s have fun with my toys.
He was walking towards the dungeon.
……
In the tea room on the seventh floor of the noble spirit building.
“I have a report on the case of uncle Ping Yuan,” Xu Qi ‘an said.
“The Tiandi society?” Wei Yuan asked in a low voice.
This was easy to deduce. If Xu Qi ‘an only had clues about the case of the count of Ping Yuan, he could report to the silver Gong or even the Golden gong, instead of directly reporting to him.
The two of them had a tacit understanding regarding the Tiandi society.
“It was No. 6 of the Tiandi society who killed ping Yuanbo,” Xu Qi ‘an said.
“What’s the reason?” Wei Yuan asked after a brief silence.
one of number six’s junior brothers was kidnapped by the yazi organization. It’s unknown whether he’s Dead or Alive. He followed the clues and found uncle Ping Yuan … Xu Qi ‘an explained how he had helped number six escape from the surveillance of the Directorate of Celestials.
He only hid the inside story of the great scholar giving the book and changed it to a New Year’s gift from his cousin.
Bang! Bang!
Wei Yuan’s sleeve swept the teacup away, and the porcelain pieces flew all over the floor. His expression was no longer gentle, and his eyes were as sharp as knives.
“Xu Qi ‘an, you’re guilty of the same crime for releasing a criminal without permission.” Wei Yuan shouted.
A strong pressure hit Xu Qi ‘an in the face, and he felt like he was facing a storm.
“This humble servant is aware of his crimes!” Xu Qi ‘an confessed on the spot and said loudly, “”I knew that I had committed a grave sin and was terrified for a day and a night. In the end, I couldn’t escape the condemnation of my conscience, so I chose to confess to Duke Wei. However, this humble servant’s conscience is not directed at that damned count Ping Yuan, but rather, I feel that I have let down the trust and cultivation of Lord Wei …”
Wei Yuan’s face was expressionless.
I was chatting with my colleagues today and learned that the Lord of Wei was criticized by His Majesty. The officials in the Imperial court took the opportunity to attack him … Xu Qi ‘an said sincerely,”when I think of how Lord Wei has treated me with such kindness …”
Wei Yuan’s expression brightened and he interrupted, ” it’s too much to be grateful. Just tell me the reason.
…. No, big brother, why don’t you follow the script? are you still in the government? Xu Qi ‘an’s face stiffened.
He paused and reorganized his words.”Uncle Ping Yuan secretly cultivated the yazi organization and sold human beings in the capital for profit. “The fangs kidnap children and women, sell them to brothels, black workshops, train them into thieves, and even cut off their limbs and wrap them in Black Dog skin …”
He repeated number six’s explanation, and in his words, he did not hide his hatred for Ping Yuan Bo.
Wei Yuan’s eyes drooped slightly as he listened patiently, deep in thought.
After Xu Qi ‘an finished, he said in a calm tone, “”Pour some tea.”
This detail showed that Wei Yuan had already “forgiven” him.
Xu Qi ‘an immediately poured tea for him, just like how he served the leader in the police station in his previous life.
Wei Yuan took a sip of tea and shook his head after a few seconds of silence. “How much do you know about the heaven and earth Union? How much did he know about the earth sect’s Golden Lotus?
“According to the Yamen’s investigation, uncle Ping Yuan does indeed have yazi organization, but that number six really did it for the so-called Junior Brother and had no other purpose?
“Perhaps Ping Yuan Bo is involved in other matters, or perhaps the yazi organization has done something that has brought about a fatal disaster. Have you thought about these?
“During the capital’s investigation, demons are dancing wildly. In four days, it will be the day of His Majesty’s ancestral worship. We can’t let our guard down.”
‘He’s teaching me how to do things and analyzing things for me. He really wants to cultivate me …’ Xu Qi ‘an was slightly moved, and he had a good impression of this eunuch.
He treated me as his subordinate, but I wanted to call him father. I’m really despicable …
“You’re right, Lord Wei.” Xu Qi ‘an lowered his head.
Wei Yuan nodded and praised, “”No matter what, you’ve done a good job. You may leave first. I will send someone to investigate this matter. You will continue to lurk in the Heaven and Earth Society, and your short-term goal is to find number one.”
“I’ll definitely do my best,” Xu Qi ‘an said loudly.
After leaving the noble spirit building, Xu Qi ‘an heaved a sigh of relief. He knew that he had made the right bet and won Wei Yuan’s trust.
If he wanted to stabilize his position and climb up, he had to learn to side with a team and to hug someone’s thigh.
No matter which era it was, it was the same, including Xu Qi ‘an’s previous life.
For a long time to come, he would have to continuously gain Wei Yuan’s favor and win his trust.
This time, Xu Qi ‘an had prepared for this meeting with Wei Yuan and was not acting rashly.
First of all, the Yamen on Night Watch was very disgraceful to people like the count of Ping Yuan. They were not very active in investigating cases and did not have any urgent thoughts of “revenge.”
Secondly, he had gained a certain amount of influence within the Heaven and Earth Society, and number 2 and number 4 acknowledged him more.
It was unlikely that Wei Yuan would give up on the Heaven and Earth Society and the clever little cutie just because of such a small matter.
In the end, what Wei Yuan said was also what Xu Qi ‘an thought.
He didn’t have 100% trust in number six or the Heaven and Earth Society. The one who could deal with old silver coin was still old silver coin.
Hence, when he was troubled, Wei Yuan was the right person.
Of course, a mature snitch had to have other tricks up his sleeve.
Xu Qi ‘an went to a secluded corner, took out a small Jade Mirror, and entered the information:
No. 6, I’ve received news that the night watchman has gotten hold of some unknown clues. It’s very likely that it’ll be disadvantageous to you. You have to be prepared and evacuate in time.
There was no delay in the transmission of The Earth Book. It had an inexplicable connection with its master, but the wielder would sense the transmission of information.
The Earth Book was a whole entity, and being unable to chat privately was its biggest disadvantage. Xu Qi ‘an felt sorry for him more than once.
In the backyard of the health Hall, number six, who had healed the ” Black Dog “, was sitting cross-legged in meditation. Suddenly, his heart throbbed and he took out the fragment of the Book of the Netherworld.
Number three’s information appeared on the mirror, causing number six’s Square face to change slightly.
How could the night watchman be so fast?
He had found a clue that could threaten him and forced number three to come forward and warn him?
Wait, how did number three know about this?
Just as he started to feel suspicious, he saw number one, who was always lurking, take the initiative to say something for the first time:
[ one: number three, how did you know about the night watchman’s internal information? ]
Number one was very concerned about this. As expected, as long as it involved the higher-ups in Beijing, he (she) would be particularly concerned.
Xu Qi ‘an didn’t answer immediately. Instead, he chose his words and thought for a while. Then, he typed in the information with his finger.
[ 3: what do you think? ]
He knew that the other owners of the Book of the Netherworld fragments were peeking at the screen and silently absorbing information. Xu Qi ‘an had to give a reasonable and explosive explanation to perfect her character.
He wanted to raise his image.
[ three: the battle for the Orthodox Confucians has lasted for more than 200 years. Our Academy can not sit and wait for death. ]
What did that mean … The Yun Lu Academy had planted a plate in the watchman’s office? That was what number three meant, right? this was already a very obvious hint.
All of a sudden, the owners of the fragments of the Book of the Netherworld became excited.
It was a huge melon.
Number one didn’t say anything. It was a strange silence, making it impossible to guess his (her) true thoughts.
“Number one, you can try to find him.” Xu Qi ‘an decided to test him.
This was both a provocation and a test.
If number one responded, or did so in secret, then Xu Qi ‘an could reverse-track his or her identity.
The night watchman was a Yamen that belonged to the royal family, and Wei Yuan had the final say.
Ordinary forces could not interfere at all. Even if there was a situation where a plate was placed, it would definitely not be in the middle or upper echelons.
As for the people at the bottom, they did not have the resources or ability to check the plates.
Number one was a smart person. He ignored Xu Qi ‘an’s provocation.
Seeing that no one spoke for a while, number six entered his information. [ 6: I’ll be extra careful these few days. 3rd, I owe you another favor. ]
[ 3: you are a chivalrous and Noble person. You are someone my generation should imitate. ]
[ 6: benefactor, you are very kind. ]
Number six answered this question as a monk, which showed that he approved of Xu Qi ‘an.
Xu Qi ‘an put away the mirror with satisfaction. don’t be grateful too early, ” she thought. you’ll have to return the favor sooner or later.
not only did I deepen Wei Yuan’s trust in me, but I also gave number six a huge favor. I also left an image in the hearts of the people of the Heaven and Earth Society that I’m willing to help others. This is a huge profit.
en, number one seems to be getting more and more interested in me. If he’s really. higher-up of the Imperial court, he’ll definitely be investigating in Yun Lu Academy … He (she) won’t be able to find out. Hehe, even if we really lock on to the truth that “number three might be Xu Qi ‘an,” I can still push Erlang to take the blame.”
“Erlang is different from me. I’m someone with the Constitution of the Imperial court. If number one finds out my true body, I’ll be in a very passive position. Second lang is the biological son of Yun Lu Academy and is more confident than me. Also, I don’t have any grudges with number one at the moment, so it shouldn’t be a big problem.”
we’re bidding farewell. Big brother loves you so much, so it’s only right for you to repay him a little.
Back in the side hall of the spring breeze Hall, song tingfeng smiled and teased Xu Qi ‘an for being a white-haired b * stard.
Zhu guangxiao nodded in agreement.
“I went to the Criminal Investigation Unit today and discovered a huge secret. It’s why I’m still so scared,” Xu Qi ‘an said seriously after thinking for a while.
Song tingfeng and Zhu guangxiao were shocked, “”What secret?”
“Call me dad and I’ll tell you,” Xu Qi ‘an said.
“Dad,” song tingfeng said after a moment of hesitation.
Xu Qi ‘an stared at him with a serious expression. “The secret is that you’re not my biological son.”
“Damn it, beat him up!”
As the three of them were quarreling, a silver Gong and two copper Gong walked in. They were unfamiliar faces.
“Xu Qi ‘an, come with us.” Silver Gong waved his hand with a smile.
Xu Qi ‘an and his two colleagues looked at each other and followed him out.
The unfamiliar silver Gong led him into spring breeze Hall. He coughed at Li Yuchun, who was reading a file in front of the table.
“Lord Li, I’m taking this Gong with me. From now on, he’ll work for me, so Let’s Make a Deal.”
Li Yuchun exploded when she heard that.
[ PS: just this? just this? ]
