Judge of the Lamp

Chapter 690

50 taels for a cotton coat sounds outrageous, but Zhou Shangshu is a smart man, so he immediately took Hong Zhenji to get the money.

The money was paid out happily, but Hong Zhenji didn't spare him, and let Cong Ming beat Zhou Jinxiu hard.

Looking at Zhou Jinxiu, who was covered in bruises, Hong Zhenji warned: "Zhou Shangshu, don't go to the pawnshop again in the future, especially the padded coat that the widow made for you, you must never pawn it."

After tidying up the Minister of the Household Department, Hong Zhenji was refreshed, and then went to the Taifu's residence.

Grand Tutor Liao Chun's mother was ill, and happened to have no money to treat her. Xu Zhiqiong asked Hong Zhenji to prepare some herbal medicines for the tutor's mother, and sent them over overnight.

Of course, this medicine can't be given away for nothing, the Taifu is also a good and honest official, there is no reason to receive it for nothing, a pair of herbal medicine is 10 taels, and it was sold to him that night.

At first, it was easy to talk and discuss, and collected 700 taels in two days, but now King Shu took a ruthless hand and spent two nights to collect all 500 million taels of silver.

He was very grateful to Xu Zhiqiong, but Xu Zhiqiong told him otherwise: "All the money is collected, and your god will definitely let you discuss the handover with Tunu's envoy."

Hong Zhenji nodded and said: "Of course I have to entrust this job to me. This is the beginning and the end. The widow has made a plan to deliver 500 million silver to Tunu at the end of the month. It can't be given too early, and they can't think that the money comes too easily."

This is the aura of chaos, Xu Zhiqiong is familiar with this smell.

Niu Yuxian grabbed Xu Zhiqiong's arm.

If you want to keep the black guards absolutely loyal, you must try your best to avoid too much contact between them and their courtiers.

……

This is a natural confidant, Xu Zhiqiong can understand what he means even if he doesn't speak.

Hong Zhenji was taken aback for a moment, then smiled and said: "In the future, Qian Cheng will definitely be estranged from Tu Nu, and I should speak more severely."

But Bi Zongshi was very confident. This time he checked the size himself, and found no difference from the mark on the drawing.

Hong Zhenji remained silent, Bo Nie came to drink a sip of wine, kissed the woman in his arms, and said to Hong Zhenji with a smile: "You go, I will let you know when the money will be delivered,
This summer, my king is going to send troops to Xuanguo. You should prepare food and more silver taels. I will tell you the amount later. "

It didn't work out the first time.

"Tell Liang Yuyao, envoy of Xuanguo, to come to Enwei Hall to meet me, and tell Zhenji that since the money has been raised, let him contact Tunu envoy today to discuss the delivery!"

Filial piety is a common word Bo Niai used to treat Qiancheng people, even in front of Hong Juncheng.

Because there are no practitioners of impermanence in the Ministry of Industry.

Xu Zhiqiong lowered his voice and said: "King Shu, when negotiating with Tu Nu's envoy, you scold him a few words."

At dawn the next day, the chaotic and impermanent cultivator of the black-clothed guard followed Qin Yan into the Divine Eye Pavilion.

But Niu Yuxian didn't do that. He took out a carving knife and made some modifications on the candlestick.

The Qiancheng Kingdom built a holy envoy palace specially for the envoys of the Tunu Kingdom. The leader of the envoys of Tunu is named Bo Nilai, who was born in the royal family and is the younger brother of the current King Tunu.

Xu Zhiqiong stared at the candlestick for a while, wondering what kind of changes Niu Yuxian had made.

Xu Zhiqiong told Chang Decai: "Tell Qin Yan to pay close attention to it. As soon as the Ministry of Industry has news, let me know immediately!"

After modifying the first place, the uncoordinated air mechanism in the stone room disappeared instantly, and the candlesticks failed.

The result of the failure was within his expectation, and he was considering whether to send a few high-grade Mohists from the Black Clothes Guards to help Bi Zongshi.

"Master, the work will be finished in one or two days, and it will be tested when it is reported to their gods."

"Practice hard, but don't get tired."

"I don't ask for much, and if there is a difference of four, I can spit on it."

But Qin Yan is not an ordinary person, he is a fifth-rank eunuch, so he can see clearly.

The guard in black seemed to ignore Bi Zongshi, but he secretly tried twice more.

In the secret pavilion, Qin Yan informed Hong Juncheng of the test results.

Niu Yuxian went into the cauldron to soak the medicine.

Arriving in the inner room of the stone chamber, Qin Yan, who was tense all over, was relieved a little.

Bo Nielai nodded and said: "This kind of filial piety is very good. I will write a letter to tell my king in a while."

In the past, when the ministers of the Qiancheng Kingdom met Bo Niai, they had to kneel down, but Hong Zhenji is also a royal family, and he is also an authentic prince, so kneeling is no longer necessary, all he needs to do is bow down.

Xu Zhiqiong smiled sinisterly, and Hong Zhenji felt cold all over his body.

Bi Zongshi ordered his subordinates: "Gather all the craftsmen and compare them with the blueprints. I want to see where there is a deviation!"

Tried three times in a row, but it didn't work.

……

He first lights the candlesticks in order, and then injects the gas machine into the candlesticks.

According to Hong Zhenji's plan, this matter was originally planned to be delayed until the end of the month.

This is not the first time he has come to the Shenyan Pavilion. When the Shenyan Pavilion was intact, he also followed the Shenjun to come, and he still remembers the strange aura.

Two days later, Bi Zongshi, Minister of the Ministry of Industry, reported to Hong Juncheng that the Shenyan Pavilion had been restored.

He looked at the guard in black and begged him to give him another chance.

In Qiancheng Kingdom, the officials of various ministries did not have the concept of voluntarily resigning from office, and Bi Zongshi felt that there was no possibility of failure this time.

"Let the Ministry of Industry continue to speed up the repair." Hong Juncheng didn't blame Bi Zongshi, and he didn't seem to be so anxious about the magical eyes.

Back at Yuyao Palace, Niu Yuxian's condition has improved a lot, his movements, sitting and lying are back to normal, and most of his skills have recovered, but when he speaks, his articulation becomes less clear.

Bi Zongshi, Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry, turned slightly pale, and his heart immediately became half cold.

But since Shenjun urged, Hong Zhenji didn't dare to neglect, and went to the Holy Envoy's Palace.

The leader of the craftsman kept complaining. In the past, Bi Zongshi would directly destroy the candlestick and make a new one.

Xu Zhiqiong approached Chang Decai and asked about the progress of the restoration of the Shenyan Pavilion.

He remembered Xu Zhiqiong's words.

Very attentive!Is this the benefit of accepting Bi Shangshu?
It seems that the guard in black is not monolithic.

Bi Zongshi was covered in sweat and said nothing. When Qin Yan left, Bi Zongshi grabbed the leader of the craftsman and beat him up.

Why do you have to wait for the gods to test it?

He is from the pro-declaration faction, and he has never had contact with Tu Nu's envoys.

Niu Yuxian changed four places on the candlestick. Xu Zhiqiong had such good eyesight. He saw that Niu Yuxian dug up a lot of stone chips and debris with a carving knife, and then pasted these stone chips and debris elsewhere. It feels like nothing has changed in this candlestick.

"Fifth grade skills, I have eaten (know) some before, these two days, and I will read (practice) again."

Niu Yuxian raised his eyebrows and smiled at Xu Zhiqiong.

Seven years ago, because Hong Juncheng no longer fully trusted the Divine Machine Division, he set up black guards and selected a group of high-quality cultivators from various schools to gather around him.

If Xu Zhiqiong came alone, he would directly melt the candlestick with acid etching liquid.

After the salute, Bo Nie came and didn't prepare a seat for Hong Zhenji. He held a wine glass in one hand and put his arms around a handsome woman of a thousand times, and looked at Hong Zhenji with a smile and said, "Has the money been raised?"

Qiancheng Kingdom has extremely strict precautions against all cultivators. There are a few Mohist cultivators who are licensed in the Ministry of Industry, the highest is only the sixth rank, and other cultivators are not allowed to appear in the Ministry of Industry.

"Marquis Yun was joking, how can the exchanges between the two countries be like this..."

Qin Yan reported the news to Chang Decai in advance.

But the ten-day agreement is getting closer and closer. If it is destroyed and redone, it will be too late.

Hong Zhenji's cheeks twitched a few times, and then a smile appeared.

Niu Yuxian's body has almost completely recovered, but the strange thing is that he can hardly speak.

Mohism's fifth-grade skills, hidden dimensions and hidden inches!
Niu Yuxian cleaned up the scene without leaving any traces, and followed Xu Zhiqiong to leave Shenyan Pavilion.

"Don't worry, I'm gone."

"King Shu, I am doing this for your own good. If you are soft-hearted towards him, you will suffer in the future."

Hong Juncheng sighed lightly and did not comment.

But the black-clothed guard behind him didn't notice it. The impermanence cultivator's perception is extremely poor, and he can't even sense his own energy.

If he fails this time, Bi Zongshi, Minister of the Ministry of Industry, will definitely not resign.

Shenyan Pavilion is guarded by black-clothed guards. Although the black-clothed guards are not low-level, it is extremely difficult to find Xu Zhiqiong's whereabouts, especially when Xu Zhiqiong is familiar with him.

Xu Zhiqiong took Niu Yuxian into the Shenyan Pavilion quietly. Tomorrow, the Shenjun will send someone to test it, but there is still no one in the Shenyan Pavilion.

Hong Zhenji nodded slightly.

He heard correctly.

His movements are very subtle, and it is difficult for ordinary people to detect his actions.

In normal times, these things will be tolerated, anyway, it is ultimately decided by the gods.

After Xu Zhiqiong heard the news, he planned to enter the Shenyan Pavilion that night.

This is the sixth time he played the report, Hong Juncheng sent black-clothed guards to test the first five times, but all ended in failure.

Hong Zhenji suspected that he had heard wrong.

The chaotic air mechanism returned to the Shenyan Pavilion, proving that the candlestick was indeed repaired correctly.

This time, Hong Juncheng didn't expect too much, and asked Qin Yan's black-clothed guard to send impermanent practitioners to test tomorrow.

After thinking about it, Hong Juncheng dismissed the idea.

The black-clothed guard shook his head at Qin Yan. Qin Yan looked at Bi Zongshi and sighed softly: "Bi Shangshu, it won't be too late to tell the god when I'm sure next time."

Xu Zhiqiong said: "It's not to be harsh, but to let you scold him as hard as you can. It would be best if you could beat him up."

Xu Zhiqiong was worried about Niu Yuxian's other situation, and let him rest at ease, and prepared to go to Shenyan Pavilion alone.

What he meant was that it was almost good, and he could do errands.

The chaotic qi mechanism is floating in the stone room, and the number is not large, but if you stay in this qi mechanism for a long time, your body will gradually become uncoordinated.

Niu Yuxian was telling Xu Zhiqiong that he could do it.

But today, he couldn't bear it anymore. He had just cleaned up the ministers. He had been a grandfather for two days, and he was not used to being a grandson.

Now that this aura is gone, Qin Yan is sure that the Shenyan Pavilion has not been fully repaired.

"Brother, I really need your help. We have to go to the Shenyan Pavilion again. Have you learned the fifth-grade skill?"

Filial piety?

scold him!

"Please tell the king of your country that my Qiancheng country is not a philanthropic hall, so I can't afford to ask for more."

"Shantang?" Bo frowned and looked at Hong Zhenji angrily.

"Yes, Shantang," Hong Zhenji said with a smile, "Don't you understand? It's a place where beggars are given alms!"
