This martial artist just wants to be an official

Chapter 383 The grenade made by my cousin
"Will there be no further trouble?"

Xian Ling'er bit her lip and looked at Lu Yuanzhi seriously.

Lu Yuanzhi knew what she was worried about, and he didn't want to deceive Xian Ling'er, so he looked straight into her eyes and said calmly:

"When there is a fight in the court, there will naturally be bloodshed."

"That's not what I'm worried about."

Xian Ling'er's eyes flickered slightly, and another smile appeared on her face:
"There will be a lot of blood shed in the battles between rivers and lakes. What I'm worried about is that if I follow Mr. Lu, my salary..."

"..."

The corner of Lu Yuanzhi's mouth twitched:
"Salaries are naturally distributed by the imperial court. I never treat my subordinates poorly."

"In that case, please accept the little lady's bow."

Xian Ling'er's eyes flashed with a smile.

It was a smile of relief.

Jianghu sect, to put it mildly, they are heroes.

To put it bluntly, they are a bunch of bandits.

"Who in this world is born willing to be a bandit?"

"hehe."

Lu Yuanzhi smiled faintly and slowly came to the door:

"Then I will give you ten days to accept as many as you have the ability to fight. Of course, if there is a fourth-grade Grandmaster realm warrior, I can directly give you the position of Yunpei!"

Hearing this, Xian Ling'er's body trembled slightly.

Yunpei? ?
This……

She was even a little unbelievable.

I thought that I would be given a position of Feng Pei at most, and I would need some merit to be promoted to the top. I didn’t expect that I would be given a dignified fourth-grade position as soon as I arrived!

That was a fourth-rank official of the imperial court!

"Does Marquis Qinghe really mean what he said?"

Xian Ling'er couldn't hold it back after all, biting her lip and asked.

Lu Yuanzhi curled his lips slightly:
"Why did I lie to you? What is my position?"

"Thank you Mr. Hou!!"

Xian Ling'er was overjoyed.

Then, she slowly turned her eyes to Bai Qingying who was standing aside, with an apology in her eyes:

"Miss Qingying, I've misunderstood you these days, I'm sorry."

When Bai Qingying heard this, she pursed her lips, nodded and said:

"It doesn't matter, I can all understand."

"Without further delay, I will return to Bubaiya and disband the Holy Cult. Anyone who is willing to come with me will appear in Beijing at the end of this month."

"Ah."

Lu Yuanzhi slowly raised his eyes and looked at Bai Qingying beside him, with a hint of apology in his eyes:
"Wait a minute, there is something I need to trouble Qingying."

This was the first time that Lu Yuanzhi called Bai Qingying by her first name.

Bai Qingying's body trembled slightly when she heard this voice, her head slowly lowered, and she looked at her toes, as if there were some patterns on them.

"Master Hou, please tell me."

Bai Qingying's voice was as thin as a mosquito.

Seeing this scene, a hint of teasing slowly rose in Xian Ling'er's eyes. She looked at Bai Qingying carefully and raised the corners of her mouth.

"Trouble, Miss, please go back to the Jianghu with Xian Ling'er. If there are any Wus who are in the fourth-grade Grand Master realm and are willing to join Pei Yinlang as an official, I will take them all!"

Lu Yuanzhi's voice softened a lot.

Bai Qingying was still staring at her toes, pursed her lips deeply, and said:
"Ah."

Apparently he heard what Lu Yuanzhi said in his heart.

Seeing this scene, Lu Yuanzhi slowly breathed a sigh of relief, and looked at Xian Ling'er lightly.

Feeling Lu Yuanzhi's gaze, Xian Ling'er smiled:
"I will leave now and set off with Miss Qingying tomorrow."

As she said that, she also looked at Lu Yuanzhi with her teasing eyes, her beautiful eyes, then looked at the shy Bai Qingying, and winked at Lu Yuanzhi.

Lu Yuanzhi glanced at her lightly and said no more.

"Snapped."

After Xian Ling'er left, she also closed the door in the room.

The room was a little quiet for a while.

Lu Yuanzhi glanced at Bai Qingying. After a long time, he said gently:
"This time the matter is over, I won't leave."

He was referring to Bai Qingying going to the Jianghu to recruit with Xian Ling'er.

Bai Qingying bit her lip, her eyes a little panicked for a moment.

She didn't expect Lu Yuanzhi to speak to her so nakedly.

"Lingshan Sword Sect still needs slaves..."

Bai Qingying didn't have the courage to agree to Lu Yuanzhi.

Lu Yuanzhi slowly approached Bai Qingying and looked at her calmly:
"The people from the Lingshan Sword Sect were assigned to Pei Yinlang. Those who were capable were assigned to become Luan Pei. Those who were not capable were sent away with money."

For Lu Yuanzhi to be so domineering.

Bai Qingying gritted her teeth and raised her head, her eyes full of pleading:
"I don't want you to think...that is the inheritance left by my late husband..."

"Oh."

When Lu Yuanzhi heard this, he took a deep breath.

I don't know why, but he felt a little irritable.

This woman has been helping him since she met him, and she has never complained.

He once had the illusion that no matter what he said, this woman would never reject him.

He didn't wake up until just now.

"In that case, Mrs. Han, go to bed early."

Lu Yuanzhi left these words and walked towards the door.

Bai Qingying looked at Lu Yuanzhi's back as he walked out.

He opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but slowly lowered his head.

She knew what to say.

Naturally, she also knew what Lu Yuanzhi meant by wanting her to stay.

She also wanted to stay.

However, she knew that she was a commoner and a widow.

Staying by Lu Yuanzhi's side will definitely bring a lot of rumors to his reputation as Lord Marquis.

Maybe it will have some bad effects on Lu Yuanzhi's future.

Therefore, she can only be cruel.

The reason is because I wanted to stay so much that I chose not to stay.

People are selfish.

Bai Qingying's selfish point is that she wants to make the young man in bright clothes and angry horses in her dream have a better life.

Although she is weak, she also wants to do her best to make him live a better life...

The next day.

Xian Ling'er and Bai Qingying did not say hello to Lu Yuanzhi, but directly found two fast horses in the palace and headed towards the rivers and lakes.

When Lu Yuanzhi came to Peiyinlang again, it was already three o'clock in the morning.

"Ji Gong, why did you call me?"

Lu Yuanzhi still had a respectful expression.

"As the deputy commander, you naturally have your own place. That building is to the south of the Yamen. When you recruit enough people, you can go there."

Ji Xuan's voice was calm and gentle.

"what?"

He didn't expect Ji Xuan to help him figure out the placement of his subordinates so quickly.

"Did you meet the leader of the demon sect yesterday?"

Ji Xuan looked over slowly.

Lu Yuan was stunned, then nodded and said:
"I have seen him, and he has been recruited by me."

"Well, in the Demon Cult, some people can be used and some cannot be used. You have to think more about recruiting."

Ji Xuan looked indifferent:

"The "Tower of Knowledge" on the first floor of Yinwu Hall should still be used when it should be used."

"That's true."

Lu Yuanzhi nodded in a daze.

When I was applying for the job, I said something in the roller-like machine:
"How could my lord die facing the north when he is in the south?"

This established his rocket-like promotion speed among Pei Yinlang.

That thing turned out to be called the Tower of Knowledge in Ji Gong's mouth.

Thinking about it carefully, it feels so good to be a high-ranking official.

When my official position was low, I was interviewed. Now it's finally my turn to interview someone else.

"Well, if there's nothing else, you just need to be familiar with the Xuanjing Hall."

Ji Xuan lowered his head and continued to look at the documents in front of his case.

"it is good."

After walking out of Yinwu Hall.

Lu Yuanzhi turned towards the "Xuanjing Hall" that Ji Gong mentioned just now

This building is in the Yamen, not far from Ji Gong's Yinwu Hall.

The distance is only one mile.

Looking up, Lu Yuanzhi's eyes flashed with novelty.

I have never used a building as an office.

The Hanging Mirror Hall has five floors in total.

He slowly walked up to the top.

It's not too different from Ji Gong's Yinwu Hall.

The area and other aspects are also quite different.

"It's quite luxurious."

Lu Yuanzhi sighed in admiration.

Then this place will be your base from now on.

"Master Hou, Song Yu from the Kewu Department would like to see you."

Someone came to report respectfully.

Brother Song?
Lu Yuanzhi was slightly startled.

Then, as if he remembered something, a smile appeared on his face:
"it is good!"

After saying that, he went downstairs under the leadership of the man.

Not long after, he saw Song Yu, who was dressed in rags.

"Brother Song??"

Lu Yuan was confused when he saw that Song Yu was languid and his clothes were in a mess.

"Why are you like this?"

Hearing Lu Yuanzhi's words, Song Yu's eyes showed a wry smile, he shook his head and sighed:

"Recently, I taught my junior sister to Kewu. She has a strong interest in gunpowder..."

Before he finished speaking, he suddenly heard a female voice:
"Dalang!!"

Then, I saw the figure of my cousin, with a hearty smile on her flowery face:
"Long time no see!"

"cousin……"

Lu Yuanzhi responded with a smile:
"Long time no see."

"Yes, it has only been a short time since you have become a Marquis. My father was so angry that he would scold you when he came home, saying that you were so lucky..."

My cousin always talks carelessly to Lu Yuanzhi.

"Uh……"

When Lu Yuanzhi heard this, a look of gloating appeared on his face:
"Who makes him not want to make progress?"

"Ha ha!"

At this time, my cousin looked at Lu Yuanzhi happily:
"I recently made a gadget for you!"

As he said that, he took out a thing that looked like a hand grenade egg from his backpack.

Lu Yuanzhi took it in his hand and looked a little stunned:

"what is this?"

"Hey, the new thing I made is called Palm Thunder!"

Hearing that Lu Yuanzhi was interested in this thing, his cousin came to him excitedly:
"See this lead? No need for an open flame, you just need to pull it gently."

Saying that, my cousin pulled the lead off on the spot...

For a moment, this place seemed a little quiet.

"run!!!"

Although Song Yu looked confused, who knew how powerful this thing was, he immediately shouted and ran outside first.

Lu Yuanzhi's reaction was not slow. Although he didn't know how his cousin invented the grenade, he had quick eyesight and quick hands. He grabbed the grenade directly from his cousin's hand and threw it into the sky with all his strength!

"Bang!!!"

An extremely shocking sound exploded in the air.

……

"What the hell!"

Lu Yuanzhi looked at his cousin's frowning eyes and was about to scold her.

But I heard my cousin staring seriously at the grenade that had just exploded in the air and murmuring:

"The power this time is not bad, but the burning speed of the fuse is a little slower..."

After saying that, she squatted down on the spot, took out a charcoal pencil from somewhere, and started to write and draw on the ground. She said in a deep voice:

"Reducing the length of the lead? Well, no, you may not be able to reach the interface where the lead is burning..."

Seeing my cousin looking so focused.

Lu Yuanzhi opened his mouth, and for a moment he didn't know whether to scold her or praise her for being too focused...

But he just reacted.

The thing just now is almost exactly the same as the grenade in the previous life.

Depend on!
Could it be that my cousin was also transported through time?

"cousin?"

Lu Yuanzhi glanced at Hai Lingzhi cautiously.

"how?"

Hai Lingzhi's eyes were a little unhappy when someone interrupted his train of thought.

"Palace Yuye Liquor?"

Lu Yuanzhi suddenly spoke up.

"???"

The cousin frowned and looked at Lu Yuanzhi as if he was mentally retarded:

"You want to drink??"

……

Well, my cousin is still the same cousin.

It's just that after joining the Kewu Department, I may have been more focused on my work, and I came up with this thing by accident.

"You should think about this issue when you go back."

Lu Yuanzhi directly pulled his cousin up, and just as he was about to speak, he heard Song Yu walking over with a ashamed expression on his face:

"Brother Lu..."

"It's okay, I understand."

Lu Yuanzhi stepped forward with a serious face and patted Song Yu's shoulder gently.

"hey-hey."

Song Yu touched his head embarrassedly:
"This thing made by my junior sister is the name given by my master..."

"Thunder Palm, it fits the bill quite well."

Lu Yuanzhi thought it would be nice to call this thing a grenade.

"Yeah, when this thing first came out, I didn't care much about it, but my master woke me up. This thing is not expensive to make, simple and easy to use. If each soldier on the battlefield can have two or three... then …”

Speaking of this, Song Yu's eyes were extremely complicated. He looked at his cousin who was still thinking about the explosion in the air:
"Little junior sister is really talented!"

"Uh……"

Lu Yuanzhi glanced at the dirty Song Yu and understood instantly:
"So during this period, Brother Song has been helping my cousin try this thing?"

"Well, the one you see is already the third version. It is estimated that the second version will be mass-produced in a while."

However, there was still a flash of excitement in Song's eyes:
"When the time comes on the battlefield, my Dayong army will be absolutely invincible!"

"Well, Brother Song, why did you come to see me today?"

After the two exchanged pleasantries for a few words, Lu Yuanzhi finally asked the question.

Song Yu slapped his forehead and looked at Lu Yuanzhi:

"The second prince asked me to come. He asked you to have a meal together. Are you ready to go tonight, Jiaofang Secretary?"

Yo ho? ? ?

Speaking of this, Lu Yuanzhi felt all his fatigue disappear instantly, and his eyes were frighteningly bright:
"Which one of the Second Prince will pay for tonight's consumption??"

"I went out with him and never spent any money."

Song Yu blinked and gave Lu Yuanzhi a very positive answer.

Lu Yuanyi clapped his hands:
"It's a good feeling!"

Lu Yuanzhi doesn't go to Jiaofangsi very often. Going there once in a while is good for his physical and mental health.
