Chapter 258 This Change is Too Big

"Boss Wu, do you have anything to share with us after your trip to Kyoto?"

In the Fu Ruixiang Restaurant, Wu Sheng, dressed in fancy clothes, led a group of brothers to sit together. He picked up a piece of beef and put it in his mouth, leaving a suspense: "You know something? Of course I have."

For most people these days, being able to live under the feet of the emperor was a great achievement. Wu Sheng's experience naturally aroused everyone's curiosity.

"Don't keep me in suspense. Tell me now. I heard that there is a princess in Kyoto who is extremely beautiful and has a high level of cultivation. Is it true?"

A man at the table hurriedly stood up, picked up the wine pot and filled Wu Sheng's bowl with wine, and said impatiently.

"Are you talking about Princess Yuzhen?" Wu Sheng picked up a bowl of wine and glanced at the man and said.

"Yes, yes, that's her."

Wu Sheng took a big sip of wine and said with a lingering feeling: "It's a coincidence that when I went there, I happened to meet Princess Yuzhen returning to the palace after practicing at Tianshu Temple. I saw her from afar and she was really... a beauty in the world."

"What's the method of being absolutely stunning?"

"It's like a fairy descending to earth. It's hard to explain. If you really see it one day, you will know it."

"I also heard that Princess Yuzhen is still unmarried. I wonder which noble family has such a blessing. Damn, I get so excited just thinking about it."

Wu Sheng looked around at the people at the table and said with a smile, "Look at you all. All you think about is your lower body. You are so useless. Princess Yuzhen is a Grandmaster of the Lingxu Realm with first-rate talent. Her beauty is the least commendable thing about her. In my opinion, compared to these superficial things, it is a great blessing to get her guidance and protection."

"Hehe, the Lingxu Realm is full of big shots whose life span starts at 300 years. We know ourselves well and don't think about these things."

"Drink, drink."

After drinking a few bowls of wine, Wu Sheng couldn't help but sighed: "Alas, after going to the capital this time, I realized that we are frogs in the well... A Xiantian martial artist is already the best here, but this level of cultivation is nothing in the capital. It's really frustrating to compare yourself with others."

Just as Wu Sheng was expressing his feelings, a waiter from the restaurant walked through the bustling crowd and respectfully approached Wu Sheng's table. He said with a smile, "Sir, there is a distinguished guest in the private room who claims to be the deputy chief of the Weiwu Division. He has come to invite you and said he has something important to discuss. I wonder if you are willing to move over and meet him?"

The servant was extremely sincere and humble.

Wu Sheng frowned slightly when he heard this, and muttered to himself: "The deputy general manager of the Weiwu Division? I have never met such a big shot before, why would he suddenly invite me? It's really weird."

He heard a little about the Weiwu Division after returning to Yongzhou.

It is known that the former chief inspector Zheng Yuanqiu was a traitor within the Huangtian Sect and had been eliminated, and now the new deputy chief inspector was promoted from within the sect.

But even so, the Weiwu Division was an office that dealt with demons and rebels, and Zheng Yuanqiu was greedy, so things only came in and never went out. As far as he could remember, he had no memory of ever having any dealings with the people there.

A hint of doubt and depression quietly crept up on his brows.

He gently put down the wine glass in his hand, glanced at everyone at the table, and saw that they also looked puzzled.

After a while, he suddenly had some ideas in his mind.

"You can't afford to offend an official. If that's the case, you should go meet this official from the Ministry of Defense and don't get yourself into trouble."

Wu Sheng stood up, straightened his clothes, and said to the brothers at the table: "You guys eat first, I'll be back soon."

After saying this, he followed the servant out of the bustling banquet hall.

After passing through several corridors with carved beams and painted buildings, we arrived at a quiet private room.

"Master, it's right here."

"it is good."

The servant knocked gently on the door.

"Come in." A male voice came from the private room, and Wu Sheng felt it was somewhat familiar.

In doubt, he pushed the door open and stepped in.

I saw a person in the room standing with his back to the door, hands behind his back, with an upright posture and an imposing manner.

When the man slowly turned around, Wu Sheng was shocked, his eyes full of disbelief.

"It's you?!" Wu Sheng blurted out, his voice full of shock.

He never expected that the passerby who came to Yongzhou to make a living, whom he had only met once in the past, would now become the deputy chief of the Weiwu Division.

Wu Sheng remembered it very clearly. At that time he had said shamelessly that he would help the man in front of him to find a livelihood.

How long has it been?

The changes are too great!
It is true that people cannot be judged by appearance, and sea water cannot be measured.

Shen Qing smiled slightly, with a gentle light in his eyes. He walked forward slowly and bowed his hands in greeting: "Brother Wu, how are you? I hope you won't mind my presumptuous invitation today."

Wu Sheng quickly returned the gift. All the doubts in his heart disappeared, replaced by the discomfort brought about by the change in status and a natural awe of officials.

"No, no, I don't. You are so busy, and I am honored that you still remember me."

At this moment, he began to feel a little uneasy, wondering why Shen Qing came to see him.

Shen Qing looked at the timid man in front of him and smiled slightly.

If I remember correctly, when he first arrived in Yongzhou that day, Wu Sheng did not behave like this when he met him.

Life is so unpredictable.

"Don't stand, sit down!" Shen Qing pointed to the seat and said.

Wu Sheng didn't say anything polite and sat back in his chair with his head down.

Shen Qing got straight to the point and spoke slowly: "Brother Wu, I invited you here because I do have a favor to ask of you."

Wu Sheng was flattered when he heard this. He felt like he was electrocuted when his butt landed on the chair. Before he could sit still, he stood up again: "Sir, please tell me what you want. I will definitely help you if I can."

Shen Qing did not beat around the bush and said directly: "I know you have a lot of resources. The Weiwu Division has been busy lately, and the demand for cultivation resources is also increasing, so..."

Having said that, Shen Qing deliberately paused and looked at Wu Sheng deeply, as if waiting for his reaction.

When Wu Sheng heard this, although he had expected it, he was still slightly startled and shuddered.

You have to know that those things of his never saw the light of day. They were obtained from officials in the county government and then sold outside the Great Zhou system.

It has always been sold by the government and bought by the people.

It is very rare to see an official like Shen Qing come to the table as a seller and ask to buy.

Just when Wu Sheng remained silent, Shen Qing smiled slightly, took out a stack of silver bills from his sleeve and gently pushed it in front of Wu Sheng.

"Brother Wu, I want wish beads and elixirs. I wonder if Brother Wu can get some in the near future?" Shen Qing's voice was low and magnetic, with a somewhat cold and undeniable tone.

Wu Sheng looked up and saw Shen Qing staring at him with a pair of piercing eyes, which made him feel goosebumps all over and sweat profusely.
