Longevity begins with marrying your sister-in-law

Chapter 349 Where have you seen me before?

Chapter 349 Where have you seen me before?
"Hey, you are unlucky."

Zong Zheng sighed quietly.

In the past, as long as he had no problems and a clean background, he would be able to sit firmly in the position of director.

After all, under normal circumstances, the king of a prefecture rarely interferes in the affairs of the three judicial departments.

Because they really disliked Mr. Zhan and the Three Dukes.

This time it was all because he was trying to seize the position of King of Moran Mansion and had no time to take care of this matter.

As for asking the new king's opinion, that's all nonsense.

"Leave it to fate!"

Qin Ke gave a bitter smile.

Zong Zheng was right, he did have some bad luck.

During this period, he also checked the situations in other prefectures. Generally, the next director was recommended by the previous one. Although this was not absolute, it was at least more than 70%.

As for the kings, they basically have no objections.

So he is really unlucky.

"But you are now a big force in the Three Law Departments. You have won over so many people. Even if you can't become the director, you will still have a certain say. Of course, your strength must keep up."

Hearing this, Qin Ke nodded.

In the final analysis, everything depends on fists.

Otherwise everything would be in vain, but he doesn't have to worry about this, with his master here, this is not a problem.

"We will leave Moran Mansion in half a month. You will know the result then."

Zong Zheng came today just to tell him the news.

By the way, I also said a few words to comfort him.

He was still very optimistic about Qin Ke. He was very satisfied with his loyalty and ability to get things done.

When his brothers went to the imperial capital, if there was a chance, he even wanted to take him with him.

"Thank you, sir."

Qin Ke nodded slightly at him. Zong Zheng was a good person and had treated him like this before.

"Okay, you've worked hard during this period, but luckily we're almost done now, so you can take a good rest or practice. Just wait."

Zong Zheng patted his shoulder and then left the room.

"Half a month?"

Qin Ke narrowed his eyes. This time was really hard to endure.

In fact, he had thought about asking his master to ask Qin Ying to take action, but this idea was suppressed as soon as it arose.

Because with Chen Xuan's personality, if he really wanted Qin Ying to take action, he would have done it long ago.

He didn't even have to say anything.

"call--"

He let out a long sigh with a complicated expression, and after a moment, he stood up and left the Sanfasi.

As time passed, Qin Ke became more and more nervous.

I even almost went astray while practicing.

If Chen Xuan hadn't discovered it in time, he might have really been ruined.

He was immediately scolded.

His spiritual power was directly sealed, and he was confined to the mansion, not allowed to leave until he came out.

In the study.

Chen Xuan rubbed his eyebrows and felt a headache.

Gu Pengyou, who was sitting opposite him, came behind him, placed her jade fingers on his forehead and began to rub it gently.

Feeling the coolness coming from his fingertips, Chen Xuan suddenly felt much more comfortable.

"He is still young, and the position of Director of the Three Judicial Departments is too tempting, so it is normal for him to behave like this."

young?

In fact, he is even much younger than Qin Ke.

In the final analysis, it's because I'm too ambitious.

Maybe this has something to do with the fact that he was indoctrinated to promote the Qin family since he was a child.

"Seal his spiritual power and calm him down. If he continues like this, he will soon become possessed by a demon."

"Well, that's fine too."

Gu Pengyou nodded slightly.

"okay!"

Chen Xuan patted her hands, and then asked him, "Have you deciphered the remaining ancient characters in the ancient book?"

"no!"

Gu Pengyou shook his head and replied apologetically.

Even though she and Xiansi had studied it for so many days, they still couldn't guess it.

Sometimes it even feels like someone is deliberately covering it up.

It's not just her who feels this way, Xiansi also has it.

"Is it so difficult?"

Chen Xuan frowned slightly. He now felt more and more that the last two pages of the ancient book must be hiding some secrets.

Do we really need to look for the elder of Dark Moon?
shook his head,

"Wait a minute!"

Imperial capital, the fourth prince’s residence.

Qin Hong sat in the hall with a frown on his face.

There are only seven days left before the half-month period given by my father.

But there is no news about who will be the king of Moran Mansion.

He also has spies in the palace, but there is no news either.

"Is there any movement over there?"

Qin Hong looked at the middle-aged man in white below.

It was his confidant and military advisor, Wu Ma.

"Your Highness, no! You have been staying in the mansion these days and have not gone out."

Wu Ma replied respectfully.

"Humph!"

Qin Hong snorted coldly. Didn’t go out?
None of them is a good person, and we don’t know what tricks they used behind the scenes.

"Your Highness, I think that this time His Majesty's choice may not be the one recommended by the other princes, including you, of course."

Qin Hong was silent.

When he was in September City, he discussed with Qin Ying and was thinking of making Chen Xuan the king of Moran Mansion.

But after the two of them talked that day, he gave up when he saw that he had no intention of coming over.

So when he returned to the imperial capital, he recommended his own people.

Originally, he also passed it on to the Three Dukes through his connections.

The three officials did not refuse.

So he thought this matter was a sure thing.

But when their father announced that the king of Dayu would be given a burial place this time, his brothers could no longer sit still.

They all joined in.

That day in the palace hall, they argued over this position until they were red in the face, completely disregarding the etiquette of being a royal family.

This is also the reason why Emperor Yu was furious.

He gave them a severe scolding.

"Hey, just wait."

Qin Hong sat on the chair and sighed deeply.

I also agreed with Wu Ma's inference in my heart.

In the palace.

Emperor Yu sat on the dragon throne. On the dragon table was a piece of white paper with several names written on it.

These people were all nominated by them.

"Your Majesty, have you still not decided?"

An old man with white hair and wearing a purple robe asked with a smile.

"Haha, yes, does the Imperial Master have any suggestions?"

Emperor Yu looked at him and asked.

The relationship between the two is not like that of a king and his subject, but more like that of friends.

In the entire Dayu, the only person who can make the Emperor of Yu have such an attitude is the Imperial Master of Dayu.

Because he has another identity, that is, Yu Huang’s teacher.

He was his teacher when he was still a prince.

It can be said that his teacher played a huge role in his being able to reach this position.

Therefore, after becoming Queen Yu, she immediately appointed her teacher as the Imperial Preceptor.

"Your Majesty should know that I am not interested in this. It is better for Your Majesty to make the decision yourself."

It is said that even a fair judge cannot judge family disputes.

These people were recommended by several princes, so it was really difficult for him to interfere.

"Teacher, you were not like this before."

Emperor Yu looked at him with a smile.

"I'm old, and I don't want to be in charge anymore."

The national teacher sighed.

He seems to be more than 20,000 years old. If Emperor Yu hadn't kept him, he would have retired long ago.

Emperor Yu smiled and shook his head, his gaze turned to the dragon table again. After a moment, he picked up the imperial pen and hovered it in the air for a while.

Finally, I settled on a name.

"what"

The Imperial Master made a puzzled sound, looked at Emperor Yu with his old eyes, and said, "Your Majesty's choice makes me a little surprised."

"This group of young bastards are ambitious. It's time to suppress them."

Emperor Yu's eyes became deeper.

None of his princes is easy to deal with.

If he wasn't at the peak of his powers, he would have to be more careful.

Sometimes there is no family affection among the royal family, even between father and son.

"Yes, your highnesses have gone a little too far, so it's okay to give them a warning."

The Imperial Master nodded slightly.

Only he dared to say such words in front of Emperor Yu.

"Then I'll trouble you, teacher. Leave this to the Imperial Household Department and go directly to the Moran Mansion to announce the decree..."

Emperor Yu directly handed the paper to him.

"Yes! Your Majesty."

Moran House.

"It's finally here."

Mo Ran looked at the guards at the city gate and murmured.

"I hope my feeling is right."

Then he followed the crowd into the city.

At this time in the study of Chen Mansion.

Chen Xuan slowly opened his eyes, ending a day of training.

"call--"

Let out a long breath.

Gu Pengyou on the side handed over a cup of tea.

"Thank you very much."

Chen Xuan smiled and then drank it all in one gulp.

During this time, she stayed in the study, reading the ancient books collected by Chen Xuan.

"Sorry, it still hasn't been cracked."

Gu Pengyou looked at him apologetically.

"No hurry, there is plenty of time. I have already ordered people to go to other palaces to collect ancient books. Take your time."

Chen Xuan consoled him.

Things related to antiquity are already very rare, and his collection of books is quite large, but after all, Moran Mansion is too small and too remote.

That's why he arranged those forces to go to other places to purchase ancient books.

I hope I can gain something.

"By the way, Emperor Yu will grant the king in the palace a place to be buried this time, and I will protect him then."

"Thank you, Brother Xuan."

Gu Pengyou bowed slightly.

My second uncle will definitely be very happy if he knows about this.

"It's just a matter of convenience. It's the same if you take care of one or two."

Chen Xuan was very calm.

With his strength, it is no exaggeration to say that he can crush everyone when he enters the bone burial ground.

According to Qin Ying, the only person to pay attention to is probably the eldest prince.

Gu Pengyou came behind him, put his hands on his shoulders and pressed them, "Thank you!"

This sentence represents herself.

She knew that this was also what Chen Xuan did for her.

Otherwise, why would he protect her Gu family? Even if he is powerful, they, who are ordinary people in the late Xuan realm, would be a burden.

Back then, my second uncle was lucky enough to survive because he took refuge in the imperial capital.

After all, once you encounter such advanced rules, there will really be rivers of blood.

"Need not!"

Chen Xuan closed his eyes, leaned his head in her arms, smelled the fragrance, and enjoyed it very much.

"Hey!"

Qin Ke looked at the book in his hand and sighed deeply.

His spiritual power was sealed and he was under house arrest. A few days ago, Chen Xuan asked him to read carefully to calm his anxious heart.

But
The closer the deadline gets, the more anxious I become.

This book is not worth reading.

"There are still three days."

Qin Ke muttered to himself.

"Fuck, that's fucking uncomfortable."

Suddenly, he swore in annoyance.

"Ok?"

Chen Xuan, who was originally enjoying the service, suddenly opened his eyes.

"Hey!"

A long sigh.

"what happened?"

Gu Pengyou behind him paused and asked in confusion.

"That kid still can't calm down."

He shook his head, disappointment in his eyes. He really didn't expect that a mere director of the Third Law Department would make him lose his composure like this.

After all, he had always been very calm.

"I understand him very well."

Gu Pengyou expressed a different opinion.

"Oh?"

Chen Xuan asked in confusion, then patted the chair next to him, "Come on, tell me."

Gu Pengyou sat down slowly, and then continued, "First of all, the position of the Director of the Third Law Department is very important, not as terrible as you think."

"To be frank, even the big families are drooling over it, but they just don't have the chance."

"Also, not everyone is like you, with incredible talent, and doesn't care about these things."

Hearing this, Chen Xuan nodded slightly, agreeing with her opinion.

but
"You forgot one thing. He is my apprentice. This alone is more important than anything else."

Chen Xuan is very domineering.

Also very proud.

He will definitely stand at the top of the East Continent in the future, so being his disciple will naturally not be bad either.

"Forehead--"

These words left Gu Pengyou speechless.

Although it sounded very arrogant, she didn't think there was anything wrong with it.

"you win!"

night.

Chen Xuan suddenly came to Qin Ke's room with two jugs of wine in his hands.

"Master, why are you here?"

He was very surprised and even a little panicked.

"If the master doesn't come, you will be so upset."

He casually put the wine on the table, then picked up the book on the table, and his brows suddenly frowned.

Because it is obvious that this book has never been opened, there is not a single crease on the back of the paper.

Seeing this, Qin Ke lowered his head and apologized honestly, "Master, please punish me!"

"Hey!"

He sighed helplessly, "I told you to study and cultivate your character, you... pour the wine!"

Chen Xuan glared at him fiercely.

I was really mad at him.

Qin Ke quickly took the wine glass, poured wine, and placed it respectfully in front of Chen Xuan.

"You sit down too! Drink with me."

He sat down tremblingly, then poured himself another glass of wine.

"drink!"

Chen Xuan held up his wine glass, and Qin Ke immediately raised both hands as well.

The two drank it all in one gulp.

"Comfortable!"

Chen Xuan shouted.

"Cough, cough, cough, it's so intense!"

Qin Ke didn't expect the wine to be so strong and so bad.

"Hahaha"

Chen Xuan couldn't help but burst into laughter, but soon the smile disappeared, and then he cursed fiercely, "For a crappy position of director, you are gloomy all day long. Do you look down on yourself, or do you look down on your teacher?"

"I told you at the beginning that there would definitely be a place for you in Dayu."

"That depends on strength, not something that a mere director of the Third Law Department can do."

"The small Moran Mansion is not the end of my teacher's life, nor is it yours. Remember this."

"Stupid stuff."

"If you continue like this, you'll just have to go back to Daning County."

This might be the harshest words Chen Xuan has ever said to him.

Even if I don’t have talent, it’s not a problem with him.

But he really couldn't stand this look and this mentality.

His spiritual power was sealed so that he could read books, but in the end he still couldn't see clearly, which really disappointed him.

"Go back to Daning County!!!"

Qin Ying's face turned pale instantly.

Then all the efforts over the years would be in vain.

He understood that this was Chen Xuan's final warning to him.

If he still clings to power, this will be his final outcome.

"No!"

With a "thump", he knelt on his knees.

"Master, I was wrong!"

Chen Xuan merely glanced at him out of the corner of his eye and then continued drinking.

After a long time.

"I don't know whether you really know you are wrong or you are afraid of saying one thing and thinking another. It doesn't matter. You have followed me for such a long time and have made contributions and worked hard, so I will give you another chance."

"Take care of yourself!"

Chen Xuan left.

But Qin Ke still knelt on the ground.

He lowered his head and stared blankly at the blue stone slab on the ground.

Chen Xuan's words "Do it if you like" kept echoing in my mind.

"You went to see Qin Ke?"

As soon as Chen Xuan returned to the room, Ning Xin started asking.

"Ok!"

He nodded, "He's just the director of the Third Law Department. He's been living in a daze for such a long time."

"Your character is too bad. It will be a big problem for you to practice in the future."

"Because it might be troublesome in the future, it is better to give him a good beating now. If he can change, then I will continue to cultivate him well. Otherwise, it is not my fault."

Chen Xuan was very optimistic about him before.

Otherwise, the Nine Yuan Taoism would not have been taught to him.

But his true nature was exposed by the director of a small judicial department.

He was too obsessed with power and neglected his own strength.

It's completely putting the cart before the horse.

"Okay, don't be angry, just look at him himself."

Ning Xin comforted.

As Chen Xuan’s only disciple, who he personally trained, his requirements would inevitably be much higher.

The next morning!

"call--"

Qin Ke let out a long breath and slowly stood up.

Kneeled all night!
Thought about it all night!
The greed in his heart had disappeared, and his eyes became determined.

"Master is right, one's own strength is the most important."

"With strength comes power."

"And as long as Master is here, nothing will be a problem."

Qin Ke murmured.

A director of the Three Judicial Department would blind his eyes and cholera his mind.

Or maybe he was just too short-sighted.

Of course, the bottom line is that his foundation is too poor. How can such a small Daning County have any long-term vision?

If he hadn't met Chen Xuan, he would have stayed in the remote Daning County all his life.

Being the carefree young master of the Qin family.

"Practice well!"

Sitting cross-legged, he began to comprehend the Nine Yuan Taoism.

It is true that he has poor talent, but he just needs to comprehend the cultivation experience of his master.

No matter how bad it is, it can be improved with time.

In the study.

The corners of Chen Xuan's mouth curled up slightly.

He had been paying attention to the situation here, and when he saw Qin Ke start to practice, he knew that he had figured it out.

It was well worth his lecture.

It's still helpful.

"All right?"

Gu Pengyou, who was brewing tea nearby, asked.

"Ok!"

Chen Xuan nodded slightly, and then began to practice.

Two days later!
A horse-drawn carriage was traveling on the street.

Chen Xuan looked at Qin Ying in surprise, wondering why he asked her to come out and hang out with her today.

"What's going on?"

After a long time, he couldn't help but ask.

"Have you forgotten that the new king of Moran House will be announced today?"

Qin Ying said with a smile.

"Who cares who he is? What does it have to do with me? I'd rather practice instead of this!"

Chen Xuan curled his lips.

It feels like he was pulled out early in the morning because of this matter.

Then he asked, "So where are we going?"

"Three judges!"

"Not only will the new king be decided today, the position of the director will also be decided."

"Sometimes I really can't figure it out. What on earth is going on in your mind? Don't you have any curiosity about such a big thing?"

Qin Ying really admired him.

She had never seen anyone so selfless.

"It has nothing to do with me, why should I think about him? Wouldn't it be better to think about women during this time?"

"Bah! Lecher!"

Qin Ying rolled her eyes at him, thinking how shameless he was.

"Lewd? You need money to be lustful, don't you know that?"

Chen Xuan looked at her straight and gave her a wicked smile.

"roll!"

Qin Ying cursed with a blushing face, her chest swelling with anger.

I really don't know what I like about him.

Especially the way he talks. It's really mean.

"Okay, anger is bad for your health, I won't say any more, I won't say any more."

The way Chen Xuan looked at her, he knew he would have to take action if she continued talking.

Women...are so hypocritical.

I don't know how happy I was eating last night.

Now he has turned his back on me.

I don’t understand, I don’t understand. I shook my head helplessly.

Qin Ying looked at him with such a mean look and turned her head away from him. The more she looked at him, the angrier she became.

In this way, after about half an hour, the carriage arrived at the door of the Sanfasi.

"Your Highness is here!"

Long Da's voice came from outside.

"Humph!"

Qin Ying glared at him and got off the carriage first.

"Hey!"

Chen Xuan sighed, then staggered out of the carriage.

However, when he came down, he saw that Qin Ying had already walked to the door of the Sanfasi and it was open, with no intention of waiting for him at all.

"You will die from this mouth sooner or later."

Long Da couldn't help but complain about him.

Even if Qin Ying is not the princess of Dayu, she is still a woman. Can't she give way?
Every time the two of them were together, she would get angry.

"What do you know?"

"This is called the spice of life. Learn it well."

Chen Xuan rolled his eyes. It was really courageous of him to have a woman preach to him.

"you!"

Long Da shook his head, too lazy to pay attention to him.

"Wait for me!"

Chen Xuan shouted towards Qin Ying, but she went straight into the Sanfasi Court.

"Depend on!"

"My dear little lady, let me see how I will deal with you tonight!"

Having said that, he walked in immediately.

In the main hall of the Three Law Departments.

Zong Peng sat at the top, with Zong Zheng sitting on his left.
