big week bad guy

Chapter 280 Warm and Cold (4000 words in two chapters)

Today, Zhao Xun understands a little bit.

Having a group of lovely brothers and sisters is a happy trouble.

The price of gaining a sense of security is that you have to be with them all the time, and you have to answer even the most speechless questions.

It takes a lot of energy and a lot of time to recover, which is a cost.

But right now is not the time to calculate the cost, the academy is Zhao Xun's greatest support now, he must hold tightly to the thighs of his brothers and sisters.

As for the teacher Qinglian Daoist Wu Quanyi, it is natural that he has to divide his energy.

Talisman is not what Zhao Xun is good at, he needs more time to practice.

In this way, the time Zhao Xun spends in the Yamen has to be reduced.

Fortunately, there are no major cases to be dealt with recently.

When Zhao Xun left the villain's office, Wangcai and Jia Xingwen were helping to watch over him, so Zhao Xun felt relieved.

But today he left the villain's yamen, not to meet the brothers and sisters of the academy, nor to meet his mentor Qinglian Daoist Wu Quanyi, but to meet his sweetheart.

Qi Wang Mansion is now heavily guarded like Chang'an City.

With the lessons learned from King Yan, the palace of King Qi is full of practitioners and guards inside and out.

If they encounter suspicious people, they will immediately take them down without hesitation.

Of course Zhao Xun is not suspicious.

The guards of Prince Qi's Mansion have long been familiar with this red-and-purple nobleman in Chang'an City.

Zhao Xun has a great possibility to become the son-in-law of King Qi in the future.Therefore, everyone in Prince Qi's mansion can't wait to lick Zhao Xun hard.

"Master Zhao is here, please come inside."

Seeing Zhao Xun coming, the concierge smiled and welcomed Zhao Xun in.

"Are you here to see His Highness the County Lord?"

"Well, is His Royal Highness the county lord in the palace now?"

"Yes, yes. The villain will take you there."

...

...

"Bad Zhao Xun, dead Zhao Xun. You haven't come to see me for so long, won't you empathize with me?"

Li Taiping, the head of Yonghe County, looked at the pool of spring water in front of him, but he was in a bad mood.

For a girl, Huaichun is definitely a painful thing.

Thinking of my lover, my heart throbbed.

The feeling of not being able to get what you want is just grinding to death.

"If the relationship lasts for a long time, how can it be day and night. This sentence sounds reasonable, but how many people can really do it?"

Li Taiping sighed and said: "Zhao Lang, when will you understand the girl's mind?"

"His Royal Highness, His Royal Highness!"

At this moment Li Taiping saw the servant girl running towards her, frowned and said: "What happened?"

"It's Mr. Zhao, Mr. Zhao is here."

"what!"

Of course Li Taiping would not consider who this Mr. Zhao is.

It must be Zhao Lang without a doubt!

Li Taiping got up impatiently, and went all the way to greet him.

When she walked to the moon gate, she almost bumped into the oncoming Zhao Xun.

"Zhao Lang...you are here."

Li Taiping's heart pounded like a deer, he lowered his head slightly and bit his lips tightly.

"I haven't seen you lose weight in Taiping for a few days."

Zhao Xun stretched out his right hand and stroked Li Taiping's cheek slightly, and said with some distress.

"Not yet..."

When the words came to his lips, Li Taiping felt that he couldn't say anything.

"It's not what you think."

In the end, Li Taiping mustered up the courage to speak his mind.

"Well, that's my fault. I put all my energy into the yamen and ignored your feelings. Let me make it up to you."

Zhao Xun grabbed Li Taiping's hand and said affectionately: "After defeating the northern barbarians and the Demon Sect, I will ask Daddy to formally propose marriage to His Royal Highness King Qi."

"what!"

Li Taiping was taken aback, his whole face flushed red.

"Why is it so sudden, people are not psychologically prepared at all."

The reason why Zhao Xun suddenly mentioned this matter to Li Taiping was actually stimulated by Wangcai.

Wangcai is a person who doesn't have a good job on weekdays, but he can still handle big things clearly.

Wangcai is a few years younger than Zhao Xun, and now they are engaged, so Zhao Xun can't be too far behind.

"Isn't the matter between us just short of the last step? What's sudden?"

Zhao Xun said affectionately, "Don't worry, I will be responsible for you."

"It's too sudden... People are not ready yet."

Li Taiping was a little flustered, of course she believed that Zhao Xun had a deep affection for him and was sincere.But the problem is that it's too sudden.

Although Li Taiping was vaguely looking forward to getting married, there must be a process of relaxation.

"Well, it seems that I was in a hurry?"

Zhao Xun was really confused.

A girl's mind is simply too difficult to guess, faster than changing her face.

"It's not urgent. It's just..."

"... "

Seeing Li Taiping's hesitant to speak, Zhao Xun was completely speechless.

Damn, please forgive me, is there anything you can't just say?

It's not the first time they've met, why bother to talk like this?
"Oh, forget it."

Li Taiping turned away and clasped his fingers, leaving Zhao Xun with a back.

Zhao Xun was numb.

It seems that flirting with girls is a technical job no matter in what era.

If you want to successfully get a girl, you must learn a book of love.

...

...

The two sat down one after the other in the pavilion, and while feeding the koi in the pond, they chatted one after another.

"Zhao Lang, do you think we can survive this time? In my impression, Chang'an City has never been under martial law for such a long time. It seems that this time we are really in big trouble."

"Don't worry, everything will be fine."

Right now Zhao Xun has no way to promise Li Taiping anything, but he can make Li Taiping feel at ease.

There are 10,000+ troops guarding Chang'an City, and there are so many practitioners guarding it, how can the prairie barbarians bully it at will.

"Just now you told me that you will propose marriage to my father and king after Chang'an City is out of trouble, is it true?"

"Of course it is sincere. You are the only one in my heart, you know."

Seeing that Li Taiping took the initiative to lead the topic in this direction, Zhao Xun quickly continued: "Of course, if you are not ready, just pretend that I have not said it."

"No, I'm ready. I just, I just had a moment..."

Li Taiping's face was flushed, and his breathing was short of breath.

But the more so, the more moved Zhao Xun's heart.

In fact, it is these details that really attract Li Taiping.

Every frown and smile is unpretentious, follow the heart, it's good to follow the heart.

"Father's place should not set up a card, but the emperor's side is not easy to say."

Zhao Xun frowned.

Is it Emperor Xianlong again?
Emperor Xianlong, a dog emperor who is not a son of man, would not come to spoil his good deeds at such a time, would he?
Really the enemy of life?
"Emperor Xianlong... oh no, His Majesty won't stop it, right?"

Zhao Xun spread his hands together and said, "Our two families are well matched, I should be worthy of you, right? Could it be that your Majesty thinks that my identity has humiliated the clan daughter?"

"Nonsense, how can there be!"

Li Taiping quit now.

"I won't allow you to humiliate yourself like this."

Although the surname is Li, the emperor and the nobles rule the world together.

The Duke of the State is already the first rank among the nobles except for the prince.

There are no kings with different surnames in Dazhou. If King Qi is not satisfied with Zhao Xun's status as the son of the Duke, is it possible that he can still find a son-in-law from his relatives?
"Haha, it seems Taiping still cares about me."

"Well…"

Li Taiping bowed his head, actually a little shy.

Zhao Xun chatted with Li Taiping about the romantic night, the time passed quite quickly.

After about an hour or so, the sky was getting dark.

Zhao Xun got up reluctantly and said, "I have to go back to the Yamen."

"Zhao Lang..."

"Don't worry, I will come to see you in a few days. If the relationship lasts for a long time, how can it be day and night?"

"Um…"

...

...

After coming out of Prince Qi's Mansion, Zhao Xun went straight to the bad man's yamen, but on the way back to the yamen, he met Wu Quanyi, the Taoist priest of Qinglian.

"Teacher? Why are you here?"

"My boy, haven't you noticed that the formation in this city has become much weaker?"

"Uh…"

Zhao Xun thought to himself that he really didn't notice this change.

Although his teacher has already started to teach him the talisman formation technique, Zhao Xun has only learned a little bit so far.

Coupled with his low level of cultivation, he is still unable to perceive the changes in the Chang'an Talisman Array.

But the teacher Wu Quanyi is different.

The mentor is a second-grade practitioner and a member of the Taoist sect.

He is extremely sensitive to changes in the talisman array. If the talisman array is really weakened, his mentor will definitely be able to sense it immediately.

"So, what does the teacher think is the reason?"

"Naturally, someone in the city is sabotaging it secretly."

Daoist Qinglian said without hesitation.

"Is this person from the Demon Sect?"

"pretty close."

"So the dark chess of the Demon Sect in Chang'an City has not been cleared..."

"certainly…"

After a conversation between master and apprentice, Zhao Xun's mood became a lot heavier.

According to the current situation, the number of demon sect members in Chang'an City is far more than he imagined. If this continues, it will be impossible to remove all these dark chess pieces in a short time.

When the war breaks out, the city will definitely be on fire...

"These guys are destroying the talisman. When the battle starts, they will definitely do their best to destroy it."

Zhao Xun clenched his fists angrily.

Now his hatred for Mozong has reached its peak.

Because Mozong's goal is not only Emperor Xianlong, but also the royal family and nobles.

They also extended their claws to the unarmed people.

This is Zhao Xun's bottom line, and he absolutely cannot accept it.

"Master, can the talisman array be repaired?"

"Of course. The talisman is set up by humans, so of course it can be repaired. Even without the artificial destruction of these demon sect practitioners, there will definitely be wear and tear over the years."

After a short pause, Wu Quanyi continued: "But first you need to find out where the formation was damaged, and then you can make targeted repairs."

"Well…"

Sure enough, the difficulty is here.

The enemy is in the dark, and I am in the light.

The enemy attacked first, Zhao Xun and others could only respond passively.

This is one step slower.

If it is not possible to accurately determine the location of the destroyed formation, then the next problem will be even more difficult.

"So, teacher, you have been wandering the streets of Chang'an City all this time just to find out where the talisman array was damaged and repair it?"

"Yes."

Wu Quanyi nodded.

"Is there anything disciples can help with?"

Although he knew that his skills were still inexperienced, Zhao Xun still hoped that he could be of some help.

"If you really want to help, inform the bad guys to conduct observations at the sites in the major squares and cities. See if there is any loss."

"Okay, I'll do it right now."

Chang'an City is so big, it depends on the mentor to check the wear and tear of the talisman array alone.

More people have more power, and one more person will have more power, which is always a good thing.

...

...

"Brother Jia, Wangcai told everyone in the yamen to go to the arrays in the major squares to observe to see if there is any wear and tear on the talisman arrays."

"Ah, brother Mingyun, what are you going to do?"

Wangcai was surprised.

"I met my mentor on the way back to the yamen. The mentor said that the large formation guarding Chang'an City has suffered serious wear and tear recently, and someone must have deliberately sabotaged it."

Zhao Xun said worriedly.

"hiss…"

The little fat man gasped.

"It seems that most of them are cultivators of the Demon Sect."

"good."

Zhao Xun was also helpless.

"What we can do now is to find the damaged parts as much as possible and repair them. It's too slow to rely on the teacher alone. So I want to mobilize all the bad people."

"Cough cough..."

Jia Xingwen understood the cause and effect.

"But Mingyun, do you want to understand something? This is not the job of bad people. You are not well-founded now, and those purple-robed bad people are already dissatisfied with you. If they make use of the problem, what should they do to criticize you?" it is good?"

In fact, Zhao Xun had already considered this issue.

He kept holding back all the time because he was really worried about those old purple-robed villains.

But now he won't worry anymore.

Zhao Xun took out a piece of paper out of nowhere.

"This is an autographed letter sent by Mr. Feng from Shazhou using the teleportation technique. In the letter, Mr. Feng clarified my responsibilities. I am now the agent of Mr. Feng who has been approved by the court and Mr. Feng. Those people are honest and honest. Forget it, if they are dishonest and want to make small moves, then don't blame me for not thinking of my colleagues."

A stern look flashed in Zhao Xun's eyes: "I never cause trouble, but I am not afraid of trouble. If anyone provokes someone, I will do it. To the death."

After nearly a year of experience, Zhao Xun understood one thing, that is, one must not be cowardly when serving as an official in the court.

If people think that you are a soft persimmon, the other party will take advantage of you desperately.

The court is the same as the natural world, both are natural selection and survival of the fittest.

This is a world where the weak are preyed upon by the strong, and admitting counsel is tantamount to admitting defeat.

If you want to protect yourself and those you cherish, you must learn to be strong.

"Okay, since you have already made up your mind, we will support you with all our strength. But you don't want to take out Mr. Feng's handwritten letter at once. You can first see who has ambitions."

Jia Xingwen has spent much longer among bad people than Zhao Xun, and he is more aware of the complicated interpersonal relationships in the bad people's yamen.

In fact, he can roughly guess who will jump out and play tricks on Zhao Xun.

But it's one thing to be clear, and quite another to be truly sure.

After all, no one who can reach a high position is a fuel-efficient lamp.

These guys are like poisonous snakes, they hide themselves very well on weekdays, only when they need a fatal blow, they will spit out a letter and bite fiercely.
