Daily life of slaying demons in the government

Chapter 499 Father-in-law as a mouthpiece

Yang Qian doesn't have much experience in relationships, and his experience in both lives combined is just above the passing line.

In my previous life, I was a slender man and didn't have much time. In this life, I have too much time to fall in love.

Now Yang Qian has a chance to talk.

Fortunately, Fang Yuan was even more inexperienced than Yang Qian, and was easy to coax with a few words. The two first became a couple, and then started shopping together, going out together, sticking together all day, and even sitting next to each other when eating. Seeing this, Xu Ying couldn't stop smiling, thinking that if this continued, it wouldn't be long before she would be able to hold her grandson.

Instead, Yang Xun felt a little uncomfortable. He could only eat a few bites of food all day, but his stomach was full of dog food. He had no place to complain. He could only hurriedly choose a marriage partner in his mind. Compared with his brother, Second Master Yang had already decided on a large number of candidates, and he was very careful in choosing each one.

Time flies in this leisurely married life, and a month has passed in the blink of an eye.

During this month, Yang Qian sent away Empress Wu Xiuqing, as well as people from Baicao Valley, Piaomiao Peak, Qishuhai, and Wanbao Sect. The only people who remained in Jizhou Prefecture were Xu Xiushan and Wang Zhenle from Wulei Palace.

After a month, it made no sense for Fang Yuan not to go back to her parents' home. After all, they lived so close to each other, and it was good enough to go back to her parents' home after a month according to custom.

That day, Yang Qian brought a cart full of gifts with his wife to Fang's house. As soon as he entered the house, he saw his father-in-law and mother-in-law waiting in the hall.

After a good exchange of pleasantries, Fang Yuan followed her mother to the backyard, presumably to have some small talk. The main hall was left to Fang Ce and Yang Qian.

"Are all your friends gone?"

"Except for the Five Thunder Palace, everyone else left. They left just two days before the Queen left."

Yang Qian replied while pouring tea for Fang Ce. It was the first time for him to chat with Fang Ce alone like this, and the atmosphere was very relaxed. It was obvious that Fang Ce had something to ask.

"Before she left, the Queen came to see me. Let me ask you what your attitude is towards Shuangqing Prefecture. Do you want to split the land and become a king? Or do you want to have your own army? Or do you just treat Shuangqing Prefecture as a fiefdom and reap some benefits?
Don't rush to answer, first tell me whether the Queen has asked you these questions. "

Yang Qian shook his head and said, "I have tried similar things before, but I never asked so directly."

"Then what do you think? Are you ready to hand over Shuangqing Prefecture?"

Fang Ce was actually very nervous when he asked this question. The man in front of him was not only his son-in-law, but also a ruthless man who had relied on killing to rise to power. In other places, the Queen would not dare to speak to him in such a tone. He was actually testing Yang Qian's attitude towards him, or the other party's family.

Trust is very important for a family.

Yang Qian smiled and said, "Father-in-law, Shuangqing Prefecture is not an ordinary place. It has countless opportunities and deadly dangers for cultivators. It depends on how to make good use of it.

To be honest, I will definitely not hand over Shuangqing Prefecture, at least it is impossible to have a jurisdiction like Jizhou Prefecture and Changzhou Prefecture. Taking Shuangqing Prefecture into my hands, not to mention how much effort it will take, if an immortal sect like Wulei Palace wants to run it, I don’t know how much it will cost, and the death of four or five elders is a foregone conclusion.

As the saying goes, if you want to take advantage of a viscount title, you are dreaming.

But I certainly won't split the land and become a king, and I don't have the mood to have an army. What I want is the resources and the convenient conditions brought by the special environment of Shuangqing Prefecture, which can become my place of residence.

Otherwise, there are the Immortal Alliance's Sky Watchers everywhere. You can't be watched for everything you do, right? Shuangqing Prefecture is such a place where you can avoid all kinds of troubles and develop with peace of mind.

I wonder if my father-in-law will understand what I am saying? "How could Yang Qian not understand? Fang Ce was not a person who was good at playing tricks with others. After all, although teachers were officials, they were very different from the officials in the government office. Every word he said was very sincere. He thought he was testing him, but in fact his intention was written on his face.

To put it bluntly, Fang Ce is a person who brings messages and acts as a buffer.

In fact, it is most appropriate for Fang Ce to ask these questions. No matter what the result is, it will not cause the royal family and Yang Qian to fall out directly. That would not look good.

“I don’t understand the various ways you cultivate immortality, but I can understand your plan for Shuangqing Prefecture.

The Queen's intention is that you can open a loophole to allow the royal family to train talents like the Little Immortal Master in Shuangqing Prefecture. As you said, there is no Sky Eye of the Immortal Alliance there, so there is naturally much more room for maneuver. I guess it also means to strengthen the national prestige and national strength."

Naturally, Yang Qian would not fail to give face to his father-in-law. Besides, Shuangqing Prefecture still needed continuous and large-scale blood transfusions from the Hongwu Dynasty to recover as soon as possible. Otherwise, if Shuangqing Prefecture relied on itself, it would take at least ten to twenty years. Yang Qian could not wait that long.

"Of course there is no problem. After I go back, I will inform Cui Mingsheng and Juan to open a special channel for Guochao. Let Juan do it, select seedlings from Shuangqing Prefecture, and then train them using Juan's method."

After talking about business, it's time to talk about personal matters.

"When are you going to Shuangqing Prefecture?"

"It's at the end of this month, there's still half a month left."

"half a month"

Fang Ce only has one daughter by his side, and his two sons are working in other places. Now that his daughter is married, the family has become empty. After all, he is old, and he still feels reluctant to leave his children behind.

"Although it's far, if my father-in-law and mother-in-law miss Fang Yuan, they can just write a letter and I'll bring Fang Yuan back. It won't take more than two days to get there by flying on clouds and mist. It's about the same time as going to Sandao City, so it's not far."

Fang Ce was stunned when he heard this, and then he also laughed. Indeed, with a half-immortal son-in-law like Yang Qian, the originally long distance between Shuangqing Prefecture and Jizhou Prefecture did not seem so far. If they hurry up, they can leave in the morning and arrive in the evening.

After chatting for a while, it was already noon. After eating, Yang Qian went back home first, while Fang Yuan stayed at the Fang family to spend more time with them.

Yang Qian returned home and first paid his respects to his mother. Then he went to the small garden in the backyard to boil a pot of tea and waited in the pavilion. Not long after, two people came out of nowhere. They were Xu Xiushan and Wang Zhen from the Five Thunder Palace.

The people from the Five Thunder Palace were the only ones who did not leave. They had been trying to find a suitable opportunity to explain to Yang Qian. But it seemed that Yang Qian did not agree with the Five Thunder Palace's explanation.

According to the Five Thunder Palace, the reason why they didn't remind Yang Qian about the poisonous spiritual energy in Shuangqing Mansion was because of negligence. They all thought that Yang Qian would not be able to reach the Nascent Soul stage in Shuangqing Mansion. There was only a year's time, so there was no need to scare Yang Qian and affect the progress of his mission in Shuangqing Mansion.

As for whether it is true or not, Yang Qian does not judge, but he cannot get around this hurdle in his heart.

Did you forget it at that time?

After nearly a year, they didn't come to explain until Yang Qian's wedding? Was Wu Lei Palace so negligent?
This statement is too perfunctory.
