Sheng Fu

Chapter 1095 Triumphant Horse Gallops

Compared to the drizzling rain in the capital, Bazhou in the north was bathed in sunshine. The sunset cast its light on the temporary prime minister's residence, as if it were coated with a layer of gilding that was not very dense.

Inside the pavilion, two dancers gracefully performed, while a beautiful musician played the zither, the melody flowing like a gently moving river.

The North has been quite lively lately; in Bai Xiaowei's study, folded documents are often piled up like mountains.

Bai Xiaowei also prefers to slow down. All the excitement combined with the music actually diminishes the enjoyment and only makes people feel annoyed. It's better to calm down and listen to the music properly.

In short, this prime minister was quite accomplished in the art of self-cultivation.

Bai Xiaowei only opened his eyes impatiently after hearing a series of slightly heavy footsteps.

Yuwen Jun was already standing outside the pavilion.

Bai Xiaowei's impatience gradually disappeared. Seeing this, the dancer and the musician bowed deeply and quickly left the pavilion. As they passed by Yuwen Jun, the three women couldn't help but gaze at him intently.

Everyone knows that Yuwen Jun is the head of the Eight Worthies and the young master of the Dragon Clan.

In the hearts of most women, Yuwen Jun was the legendary handsome man.

Of course, Yuwen Jun never cared about these things. If he had, he would have had three wives and four concubines long ago.

Yuwen Jun slowly entered the pavilion, and Bai Xiaowei got up to pour tea.

"Your demeanor is calm, yet you possess a fierce inner strength, like a tiger about to pounce on its prey. What has happened to excite you so much?" Bai Xiaowei pushed the teacup towards Yuwen Jun's hand, glancing at him with a questioning look.

Yuwen Jun picked up his teacup, took a sip, and said with a smug smile, "Of course, there is good news."

"Has the imperial edict not arrived yet?"

Bai Xiaowei was initially suspicious. Then, the void passage opened, and a black and gold scroll appeared in front of Bai Xiaowei. The imperial edict had arrived. Bai Xiaowei did not rush to respond to Yuwen Jun, but quickly opened the imperial edict to take a look.

With just a glance, Bai Xiaowei closed the imperial edict and deliberately teased Yuwen Jun, "It's here. I just looked at it."

Yuwen Jun chuckled and said, "I intend to have Jing Hanqing return to Hengchang Sect to take charge of the overall situation."

“Nowadays, Fu Cheng has Jiang Ping in civil affairs and Song Jian in military affairs, forming a small power base. Although Jing Hanqing would still benefit greatly from staying in the Northern Prince’s Mansion, it would be safer for her to return to Hengchang Sect.”

"Afterwards, I will personally go to Qinghe Prefecture and Fuyang County."

"You stay here for now, and when I need you, I will send you a message through the void."

Bai Xiaowei chuckled and said, "No problem, I will definitely ensure that all orders are carried out smoothly here."

Yuwen Jun suddenly looked troubled and said, "Wan Xin and Qian Zhen have already died in battle. Now only Ji Zhongtian, Yang He, and Shen Jun remain."

"Ji Zhongtian will show up sooner or later."

It is still unknown what positions Yang He and Shen Jun hold within the Purple Gold Alliance.

"This matter needs to be investigated slowly and methodically."

"In short, it's too early to be happy."

Bai Xiaowei laughed out loud, and said with a cynical smile, "It's all the same. All we have to do is wait to withdraw the money. So how much are you planning to embezzle?"

Yuwen Jun looked at Bai Xiaowei with disdain.

Bai Xiaowei still looked at Yuwen Jun with a smug expression.

After staring at each other for a moment, the two suddenly burst into laughter at the same time, their hearty and unrestrained laughter echoing throughout the Prime Minister's residence.

"In that case, I'll go to that little tavern outside the Northern Prince's mansion first," Yuwen Jun said with a hint of arrogance in his eyes.

Bai Xiaowei got up to see him off.

The reason Bai Xiaowei got up to see him off was because he knew that during this period, Yuwen Jun was the person with the most real power in the human race. Although Bai Xiaowei was a straightforward person, he still had to maintain some of the habits of officialdom.

Of course, there weren't many people in the human officialdom worth Bai Xiaowei personally seeing off. Yuwen Jun also waved as he walked, and a gust of wind quickly left the Prime Minister's residence. Soon after, this gust of wind would slap Ling Yuqing's face.

Both the Dark Dragon Spy Network and the Panlong Spy Network would head to Fuyang County immediately.

Inside a small tavern three streets away from the Northern Prince's Mansion.

Yuwen Jun chose the innermost secluded spot, where he still had a pot of wine, a plate of beef, and a plate of peanuts. When he was in a good mood, everything tasted delicious.

Soon after, a straight and clean-cut figure appeared at the entrance of the tavern.

Jing Hanqing quickly walked over to Yuwen Jun and sat down, then proactively poured wine for Yuwen Jun.

"What happened?" Jing Hanqing also noticed the smug look on Yuwen Jun's face at a glance.

Yuwen Jun picked up his wine cup and drank it all in one gulp, without clinking glasses with Jing Hanqing.

Yuwen Jun gazed at Xiang Jinghanqing and said slowly, "I'll give you half a day to deal with the remaining political affairs of the Northern Prince's Mansion. Tonight, you will leave the North and return to Henglong Mountain to guard Hengchang Sect."

Jing Hanqing was stunned for a moment.

“Why? Nowadays, many lower-level officials in various parts of the North have been replaced. If this trend continues, Fucheng will control nearly 30% of the official resources in the North. I still have to stay and assist the Northern King.” Jing Hanqing replied in a very soft and suppressed voice.

Yuwen Jun didn't take it to heart and slowly poured a cup of wine for Jing Hanqing.

Yuwen Jun smiled faintly and said, "The Ji family is about to collapse. In the past few days, earth-shattering events have occurred, but you are unaware of them, and I am too lazy to explain them to you in detail. You should quickly return to Hengchang Sect to guard it."

"Compared to what is happening right now, the actions of the seven-character quatrains and five-character quatrains are nothing more than trivial matters."

Jing Hanqing instantly understood, and her eyes suddenly became clear and bright.

Yuwen Jun raised his wine glass and smiled, "Let's clink glasses."

With a shy expression, Jing Hanqing raised her cup with both hands to clink glasses with Yuwen Jun. The two drank it down in one gulp, and Jing Hanqing then reached out and grabbed a slice of beef to put in her mouth.

At this moment, table manners are not important at all.

"Go back and prepare quickly," Yuwen Jun said.

Jing Hanqing nodded emphatically, got up and quickly left the small tavern. The beef slices he had just eaten were quite delicious.

After having a few drinks, Yuwen Jun walked out of the tavern. The moment he stepped out, the world turned upside down and he traversed the void.

Divine Realm, Vast City, within the palace.

Jing Peiyao was still sitting on the throne reviewing memorials. Women are very serious about their work. In fact, most memorials only need to be stamped, but Jing Peiyao still chooses to read them one by one.

Suddenly, Jing Peiyao turned her head to look at her side. Before she knew it, Yuwen Jun had sat down next to her and casually put his arm around her slender waist, not forgetting to lift her up slightly to examine her.

Jing Peiyao instinctively stepped aside, her beautiful eyes flashing with a hint of menace as she asked, "What happened? Why are you acting so aggressively?"

Seeing that Jing Peiyao had already moved aside, Yuwen Jun leaned back on the city lord's throne and said, "The plan has succeeded. The Human Emperor and the Spirit Emperor have both made further progress in the Sea of ​​Bitterness, and the leader of the Purple Gold Alliance has been killed in action."

"The Divine Emperor's injuries are less severe, and he has probably recovered completely by now, but he still doesn't dare to head south rashly."

"One against two, the God Emperor will have a hard time. He may win in a death match, but he himself may also die."

"Next, I will clean up the mess left by the Purple Gold Alliance. If I can control that economic lifeline, I can get the new policies implemented ahead of schedule."

"In short, your terrible idea deserves a lot of credit, and it almost killed the Human Emperor and the Spirit Emperor."

Upon hearing this, Jing Peiyao's obsidian-like eyes suddenly shone brightly, but she did not take the opportunity to snuggle into Yuwen Jun's arms.

Yuwen Jun opened the Boundless Bracelet and took out the Purple Star Blade, placing it on the table.

"Study this knife carefully. It can resonate with the true essence of Ziwei, which will help your cultivation."

"If you don't like the sword, then fuse the Flowing Snow with this sword and forge a Purple Star Holy Sword."
