Joy of Life: Don't Provoke Zuowang Dao

Chapter 28 What? Zuowang Dao asks to marry the eldest princess

Fuck, you should have told me earlier when you asked for directions...

Nanqing Wolong Guo Baokun had a face full of aggrievedness. With such a miraculous reaction, one can only say that he is worthy of being Master Guo. His brain circuits are just different from others.

"Yes, it's indeed my fault that I didn't say it earlier. It's my fault, it's all my fault. What Mr. Guo said is right!" Xu Wenhe was not angry, and immediately admitted his mistake with a smile.

"Forget it, forget it. The fight has already happened, so let's just leave it at that. But next time, if it's something simple like asking for directions, tell me earlier!" Guo Baokun gave him a resentful look, dusted off his clothes and stood up. This heart... is really big.

Wang Qinian, who was tied to the flagpole of the carriage, stared with his eyes wide open.

Pei Qian, who was driving next to him, was no less impressive.

Xu Wenhe was not angry, but patiently bowed: "Mr. Guo is right, I will definitely do it next time. May I ask, Mr. Guo, can you show me the way now?"

"That's easy. It's the residence of Sinanbo Fan Jian, right? Go along this street and then turn left...you'll be there. Do you remember it?" Guo Shao pointed the way readily and even asked considerately if anyone had remembered it at the end.

Really!

He is so gentle, it makes me cry!

"Thank you, Mr. Guo. I'll remember this. I have something important to do, so I'll leave first. I'll treat Mr. Guo to dinner next time." Xu Wenhe smiled and bowed to express his gratitude.

"You're welcome. Bye!" Guo Baokun politely bowed and saw Xu Wenhe off, as if he was asking for directions. The whole process seemed natural and there was no sign of performance at all.

Such an amazing performance.

Wang Qinian and Pei Qian were both stunned until Xu Wenhe returned to the carriage.

"He even dares to point out this road. Is this person here..." Pei Qian pointed to his head and said with a strange look on his face.

"Who knows!" Xu Wenhe shrugged and said nonchalantly: "Maybe he is stupid... Forget it, let's not talk about this. It's more important to go to Si Nanbo's mansion and do business first!"

"That's right, business is more important!"

drive!
Pei Qian drove the carriage forward, and this time he finally knew the approximate direction and had a clear destination.

It’s just a pity for Wang Qinian. He has been tied to the flagpole and looks like he has lost all hope in life.

……

The carriage had just left.

Zhu Ge took the elite troops from the Inspection Institute and rode to the gate of Guo's mansion.

At a glance, I found that Guo Shao was moving the guards while cursing, as if he wanted to move the unconscious guard to a cool place where he could cool down.

"Where are the people?" Zhuge jumped off his horse, without even bothering to say hello, and started asking questions.

"Who is it?" Guo Baokun was puzzled by the question, but because the other party was wearing the uniform of the Inspection Institute and holding a knife in his hand, he could only suppress his dissatisfaction temporarily.

"Nonsense, it must be the person who was on the carriage just now!" Zhuge said coldly.

"Oh, you mean the one who asked for directions?" Guo Baokun suddenly realized.

"Asking for directions?" Zhuge's eyes widened in anger.

"Yes, the person on the carriage just now actually got off to ask how to get to Si Nanbo's mansion, and then left." Guo Baokun replied.

"Si... the residence of Si Nanbo Fan Jian... wait, could it be that the target of Zuwang Dao is Si Nanbo Fan Jian?" Zhu Ge grasped the key point keenly and became very excited.

No matter how hard you try, you won't be able to find anything, and it won't take any effort at all!
Zhu Ge had never expected that it would be so easy to grasp the target location of Zuowang Dao. He was so ecstatic for a moment that he even ignored Guo Baokun's words "I will leave after asking" and immediately gave orders to his trusted confidants.

"Quick, notify all departments and the Kyoto Garrison Division that Zuowang Dao's target is Sinanbo Fan Jian. Tell everyone along the way to hold them back, and the rest of you to follow me!"

"Yes!"

The people from the Inspection Institute came and went quickly, and in a short while they all ran away, preparing to surround the two thugs.

At this time, on the way to Fan Mansion, the Inspection Institute along the way received an order and immediately rushed to the designated location!
……

Xu Wenhe was driving the carriage, and he neither used his Qinggong skills to speed up nor deliberately went too slowly, so his speed naturally could not be too fast.

This happened to be the time when the Inspection Institute, which had received an emergency order, caught them red-handed.

Received urgent order from Zhuge.

The secret agents from the Inspection Office held knives in their hands, ready to die, and blocked the way.

However, the carriage driven by Pei Qian had not yet approached within a hundred steps.

Then I heard the sound of hurried horse hooves behind me.

This was followed by a loud shout!
"The Inspection Office is here, the Zuwang Dao lunatics should stop being so rampant!" Zhu Ge hurried and finally caught up with the carriage, and instantly formed a pincer attack from the front and back. The carriage was blocked in the middle of the street.

Zhu Ge was the first to go forward. This director of the Inspection Institute, who had already engraved loyalty to the emperor and patriotism into his bones, had a look of determination on his face.

He obviously has disregarded his own life and death.

For the sake of Qingguo!

Even if it costs my life!

Zhu Ge would not even frown, but since he could become the director of a department of the Inspection Institute, he was definitely not a reckless man. Instead, he was extremely meticulous and naturally knew how terrifying the masters of the Zuowang Dao could be.

Especially since the enemy's strength was most likely above the eighth rank, he only glanced at the less than 200 people from the Inspection Institute who had just arrived.

He concluded that it was impossible to defeat the enemy!
Only by delaying time and waiting for more troops to arrive, will it be possible to capture the Zuwang Dao lunatic or drive him out of Kyoto!

Think of this!

"The Zuwang Dao's fanatics, don't be so arrogant. No matter what conspiracy or tricks the Zuwang Dao has this time, my Inspection Institute will not let you succeed!" In order to buy time, Zhu Ge decisively used words to delay.

"What conspiracy? What are you talking about?" Xu Wenhe was not vague and decisively chose to play dumb. It's not that he couldn't see that this guy was delaying time, but he just didn't need to care.

Anyway, as long as Emperor Qing, this coward, hides in the palace and doesn't come out, and Wuzhu doesn't take action, it will be difficult for an ordinary ninth-rank official to even stop him. There's nothing to be afraid of!

As for the siege by the army.

The worst that can happen is I can just run away!
In that case, why not play with this guy and see what he can come up with.

"Stop pretending. Zuowang Dao is good at conspiracies and likes to deceive people. Everyone knows this. Now you are openly provoking me. Don't tell me that this is just a whim?" Zhu Ge sneered, his words full of confidence.

It was because the Inspection Institute had been studying the Zuowang Dao for many years and was already very familiar with the style of the Zuowang Dao. With Yan Ruohai's reminder, he concluded that there must be a conspiracy behind this.

however!
"Hey, you actually guessed that we did it on a whim, that's awesome!" Xu Wenhe's eyes suddenly lit up, as if he had found a confidant, and to be honest, whether it was putting two big flags on the carriage or making a fuss at the city gate, it was really just on a whim.

I'm not lying!
"Do you think I'm an idiot?" Zhu Ge's face darkened. Delaying time is one thing, but who are you looking down on by lying to others like this?

"But it was really a spur of the moment thing!" Xu Wenhe spread his hands.

"Haha, do you think I believe this?" Zhu Ge asked back with a sneer on his face, but he was very happy in his heart. He thought that the Zuowang Taoist opposite him was so stupid that he couldn't even see such a simple way to delay time.

As stupid as a pig.

But Zhu Ge didn't know!

From the beginning to the end, Xu Wenhe never told a lie, nor did he have any conspiracy or intrigue, but no one believed the truth!

"Well, since you've seen through it, I won't hide it anymore. Zuwang Dao did have a conspiracy when he came to Kyoto this time!" Xu Wenhe shrugged and admitted helplessly.

Since you don't believe the truth anyway, then just tell a lie.

"Haha, of course I know that you have a conspiracy. But I, Zhu Ge, the head of the First Division of the Inspection Institute, can tell you clearly that no matter what the conspiracy is, I will not let Zuwang Dao succeed!" Zhu Ge continued to delay time while making harsh remarks.

but!

next second!
"Then...what if my conspiracy in coming to Kyoto this time is to ask for the hand in marriage of your country's eldest princess?"

Bang! Bang!
Suddenly, it seemed as if something fell to the ground, making a series of crisp sounds.

Everyone in the Inspection Office widened their eyes.

Wang Qinian, who was tied to the flagpole, was stunned.

Even Zhuge slipped off the horse's back, his eyes bulged out and his eyeballs almost fell to the ground.

"You...you just said...what was Zuwang Dao's conspiracy to come to Kyoto?" Zhu Ge even forgot to delay time and asked stutteringly.

whee!

Xu Wenhe laughed, and his laugh was like a fox, thinking, you don't believe the truth, so fine, then just tell a lie.

Not only that, this lie must be known to everyone in the city!

So Xu Wenhe decisively used his true Qi, using the supreme [Changle Sutra] true Qi to activate his own unique skill [Sky Shock]. After making preparations to increase the volume, he glanced at Zhu Ge with a smile.

"Haha, didn't you hear clearly? Fine, then I'll say it again. Listen carefully. The purpose of Zuowang Dao's coming to Kyoto this time is to ask for the hand in marriage of your country's... eldest... princess...!!!"

……

　Hehehe, Her Royal Highness the Princess is so beautiful. I always feel that she is more beautiful than the heroine. What do you think?
