My father is a Confucian sage, but the system forces me to be a crude warrior

Chapter 235 I have seen this man in a bamboo hat!
Zeng Anmin looked at Bai Ziqing with great suspicion in his eyes.

Every time this guy comes to me, he asks me to do something for him.

Although I can also benefit from it every time.

But he now knows very well that the first thing he must deal with is the strange energy in his sea of ​​consciousness.

As long as this thing is not removed, I will always have a worry in my heart.

"hey-hey."

Bai Ziqing showed a smug smile on his face.

He mysteriously took out a document of appointment from his pocket:
"Look what this is?!"

Zeng Anmin was stunned for a moment.

He looked at the document suspiciously.

Then the pupils shrank slightly.

[Now there is a student named Zeng Anmin, who won the first prize in the autumn examination and was specially appointed as the chief official of the Northern Division of the Imperial City! ]

Just one line.

Zeng Anmin was completely confused by what he saw.

Employment documents? ?
What's going on?

Doesn’t it say that if you pass the imperial examination, you can only be sent to be a county magistrate?

How did you get a job in Beijing?
"This thing... is it fake?"

He couldn't help rubbing his eyes.

The handwriting remains unchanged!

Moreover, it has the saint’s seal on it, so the deal is done!
"Grass!"

Zeng Anmin couldn't help but curse:
"Has the cabinet agreed?"

"Ha ha!!"

Bai Ziqing couldn't help but smile when he saw Zeng Anmin's expression:
"Don't worry, once you enter the Imperial City Division, you'll have Ben Tidu's protection, and no one can embarrass you!"

As he spoke, he came up and put his arm around Zeng Anmin's shoulders:

"Come on, brother Quan Fu is very happy about his promotion. I'll treat you to a meal from the Jiaofangsi!"

"Get out of here!"

Zeng Anmin couldn't help but look upset. He pulled Bai Ziqing's arm away and stared at him:

"Are you making a fuss about it?"

Bai Ziqing looked at Zeng Anmin innocently and said:

"That's right. I just used a connection to transfer you from Dongtidu to Beitidu."

“Transfers within the department do not need to be reported to the cabinet.”

……

"So, I can't refuse this document?"

Zeng Anmin took a deep breath and looked at Bai Ziqing solemnly.

"His Majesty has personally stamped the seal on it."

Bai Ziqing spread his hands and said, "How could it be fake?"

Zeng Anmin took a deep breath and suppressed the annoyance in his heart.

"Let me make it clear first. Even if I were to work for the Imperial City Department, I would not work on this case with you."

Zeng Anmin glanced at Bai Ziqing.

The assassination of the emperor.

If it is done well, you can get the credit, but you will also offend all the officials of the other two departments except the Imperial City Department.

If you don’t do it well... then congratulations, you have offended the emperor.

"Oh! These are just trivial matters."

Bai Ziqing grinned happily:
"Let's go. We really need to celebrate our promotion."

"I'm not going. I have to go find my dad."

Zeng Anmin pursed his lips and his eyes became profound.

"I'm afraid there's something wrong with this appointment document."

Having said that, he stood up and headed towards the Shangshu Hall.

"Hey! Don't leave!"

Bai Ziqing was just about to chase after him.

Then he saw Zeng Anmin coming back.

"Right, it won't be too late for you and me to celebrate this good news first, and then go home and tell your father the good news..."

Zeng Anmin took the document from Bai Ziqing's hand with an expressionless face.

Then he turned around and walked out.

"Hey……"

Bai Ziqing looked at Zeng Anmin's back and sighed helplessly:

"It seems that Brother Quan Fu is so happy that he can't even smile."

……

"father!"

Zeng Anmin looked deeply at Zeng Shilin who was sitting in front of him:

"You've been reading this document for quite some time. Please give me some advice."

"Why are you sending me to the Imperial City Division out of the blue?"

"How can a Confucian cultivator like me enter the Imperial City Department?"

Zeng Anmin looked at his father with a look of confusion on his face.

Zeng Shilin slowly put down the document in his hand.

He looked up at Zeng Anmin.

Zeng Anmin also looked at his father.

"There is another mystery behind this matter."

Zeng Shilin narrowed his eyes and looked into the distance:

"General Officer of the Northern Division of the Imperial City, a sixth-rank civil servant."

"This document has not passed through the father's hands."

"What do you mean?" Zeng Anmin frowned and looked at his father:

"How did you seal it without your hands?"

Zeng Anmin was a juren.

Still the champion.

Naturally, his official appointment cannot be taken lightly. It needs to be discussed by the three elders of the cabinet and then reported to the saint, who can stamp it before it can be issued.

My father is the Grand Secretary of Wuying Palace and one of the three elders of the cabinet.

This document didn't even pass through my father's hands?

"Could it be Li Zhen?"

Zeng Anmin's brows furrowed even deeper.

The old man glanced at him and said, "Lord Li is very busy. I am the only one who deserves his respect. Do you think you are worthy of it?"

Uh……

Zeng Anmin's mouth twitched:
"I am at least the top candidate in the imperial examination..."

"Humph~"

Dad sneered:
"Only Li Zhen would personally take action if he is the top scorer in the gold exam. No one else is worthy of it."

"alright."

Zeng Anmin touched his nose in dismay, but still couldn't help but quibble:
"Don't the three elders also need to be present to select the best official?"

"stop."

Dad waved his hand impatiently, glanced at Zeng Anmin and said:
"If it weren't for your father telling you that you still need to gain some experience in the government."

“Don’t trust everything in books.”

"What is written in the book?"

"You have to combine the content of the book with the reality, so that you can understand your own path."

"So you've been talking for a long time but still haven't said anything. What should I do now?"

Zeng Anmin curled the corner of his mouth.

"Go when you have to."

The old man threw the paper in front of Zeng Anmin with an indifferent look on his face, like throwing away garbage:
"I am just a general official. Why should I be afraid to take up the post?"

"And it won't delay your examination next year."

"Just send someone from the Imperial College to notify them."

"alright."

Zeng Anmin picked up the document, stroked his chin and thought for a while, as if he had thought of something, he looked up at Zeng Shilin and asked:

"How does the Imperial City Bureau's secret archive compare to the Imperial College's?"

As soon as these words came out.

Dad kept looking at Zeng Anmin as if he were a fool:
"What kind of place is the Imperial College? Do you dare to compare it with the Imperial City Department?"

"Even if the Imperial College has five times as many books, they are still not as good as one cent of the Imperial City Bureau."

"The Xuanzhen Division is said to have collected all the books in the world, but it can't compare with the Imperial City Division."

"Since the founding of the country and the establishment of the Imperial City Division, whether it's rumors or ancient photos, the Imperial City Division covers everything."

Awesome!
After Zeng Anmin heard this, his eyes lit up.

If that's the case...

It is very likely that clues to the Lotus of Heaven can be found!

Ado.

Zeng Anmin dressed himself up and appeared at the gate of the Imperial City Administration again in just one day.

Why say again...

He vaguely remembered meeting King Qi when he came here last time.

"Brother Quan Fu!!"

Bai Ziqing had already arrived at the gate of the Imperial City to greet Zeng Anmin.

Zeng Anmin was slightly stunned when he saw Bai Ziqing.

"What are you wearing today?"

The Bai Ziqing in front of him was dressed in white, looking old.

But what the hell is that crabapple flower on the head? ?
Zeng Anmin felt like he was screwed.

He looked at Bai Ziqing's flashy outfit, and a person subconsciously emerged in his mind.

Willow string, willow crabapple.

That kid always dresses like this...

"Today is the first day that Brother Quan Fu is on duty, so as his elder brother, I naturally have to come and greet him in person."

After Bai Ziqing finished speaking, he waved his hand gently.

"Shhh!!"

"Boom bang bang."

Under Zeng Anmin's dull gaze.

A team of nearly three hundred Imperial City Division members walked out of the Imperial City Division Yamen.

The steps are neat and in step.

"Oh!"

Three hundred people pounded their chests in unison.

"Meet the Second Master!"

?

Zeng Anmin was completely numb.

He felt his heart beating faster.

Second Master? ?
Zeng Anmin felt his face begin to heat up. "Hello, brothers..."

He awkwardly returned the greeting to the three hundred grapes.

"Hello, Second Master!"

"Good luck, Master!"

"Second Master is righteous!"

Three times in a row, just as if they had been rehearsed, the sounds were loud and continuous, and ended in unison.

Zeng Anmin's face was wrinkled like a bitter gourd.

Because he could already hear people on the street pointing fingers at him.

I you...

Zeng Anmin glared at Bai Ziqing.

At this time, Bai Ziqing was still feeling complacent.

"Brother Quan Fu will definitely like this kind of scene!"

"Imperial City Commissioner Li Yanshou greets the Second Master!"

"Huang Shi, the Imperial City Secretary, has met the Second Master."

"Imperial City Secretary Xue Min greets the Second Master!"

Can't help but explain.

Three big men came up to Zeng Anmin, pounded his chest and introduced themselves to him.

"Cough cough."

Zeng Anmin first coughed dryly:
"Zeng is just a clerk, I don't deserve such a welcome from you gentlemen..."

“Well deserved!!”

The three judges shouted loudly:

"Mr. Zeng has a clear mind in the battlefield, serving the country and the people, and putting justice first!"

"How come you don't deserve our respect?!"

Bai Ziqing was extremely satisfied watching from the side.

He was very pleased with the performance of his three men.

"Not bad!"

At this time, Bai Ziqing took over, his face showing indifference:

"Not to mention that Zeng Xianzi joined the army and made three great plans to break through Yumen Pass and occupy Qinghai Bay."

"But it's this imperial examination."

"Carrying firewood for the public, you absolutely deserve our respect."

Goodbye now!

This is the first time Zeng Anmin has felt so socially anxious since he traveled through time.

"Cough cough."

He coughed again.

He felt that he coughed several times more today than before.

"Well, let's go back first. I have to check on my room first."

Zeng Anmin looked at Bai Ziqing and whispered.

“No need to look any further.”

Bai Ziqing's face showed a hint of indifference. He waved his hand and said:

"I have already moved Chief Zeng's chamber into mine."

"From now on, Chief Zeng will work with me."

? ?
Zeng Anmin pursed his lips.

But with so many people there, and it being his first day on duty, it was hard to say much.

And Bai Ziqing looked like this...

He glanced at Bai Ziqing's indifferent expression again.

I also know that he is one of the four great governors in the Imperial City Bureau, a genuine fourth-rank official.

You have to have prestige in front of these younger brothers.

"alright."

He nodded, and followed Bai Ziqing into the gate of the Imperial City.

Imperial City Division.

It is the most prestigious department in the Great Holy Dynasty.

It is said that he supervises all officials.

Cut first and then play.

Imperial special authorization.

It can be said that in the capital, a small grape can walk sideways.

Because I want to become the emperor's son.

In addition to the three generations of ancestors being clean.

The minimum requirement is to be a martial artist.

The ninth rank of warrior may not sound high.

But considering the population base of the Great Holy Dynasty.

He is definitely a one in a million talent!
Qingfeng Hall.

Bai Ziqing's sexual intercourse.

Zeng Anmin sat opposite Bai Ziqing.

Bai Ziqing sat there pretending to write calligraphy and painting.

"Bai Ti Du, there is nothing else. We will go back to the Ministry of Personnel to report."

An official bowed respectfully to Bai Ziqing.

"Well, let's go."

Bai Ziqing had no expression on his face and waved his hand calmly: "Close the door for me."

"Yes."

……

"Crack."

As the door rang.

Bai Ziqing pretended for a while.

at last.

He couldn't pretend anymore.

"Crack."

He put the pen down casually.

"Brother Quan Fu!" These four words rang out.

Zeng Anmin took a deep breath and looked at Bai Ziqing expressionlessly.

"Help!"

Bai Ziqing came to Zeng Anmin fiercely, with a desire for life on his face:

"Your Majesty has already issued an ultimatum regarding the assassination attempt by the man in the bamboo hat."

"If I can't find any information about the assassin within three days, I'm doomed!"

……

Zeng Anmin frowned and looked at Bai Ziqing:
"Didn't I tell you that I don't want to get involved in this case?"

He no longer wanted to sit here.

He just wanted to go to the secret archives of the Imperial City Bureau.

The most important thing is to eliminate the evil spirit in the body.

of course.

Zeng Anmin definitely did not intend to practice dual cultivation.

He just wanted to find the Lotus of Heaven as soon as possible.

As for the eldest princess and stuff... let’s talk about it later.

"You can't just stand by and watch someone die."

Bai Ziqing's face was anxious, and he raised his voice:

"If you can't solve this case, then there is absolutely no one else in the entire capital who can solve it."

"How do I find it?"

Zeng Anmin was really impatient. He frowned and stared at Bai Ziqing and said:

"The assassin's strength is far beyond my ability to measure."

"And I know nothing about it..."

"I'm not a god."

"I found it when I said I would."

"You definitely have a way!" Bai Ziqing stared straight at Zeng Anmin: "Brother, I believe in you. You definitely have a way."

Bai Ziqing now has blind faith in Zeng Anmin.

It can’t be said that I believe it.

It's worship.

In terms of methods of solving cases.

He even thought Zeng Anmin was the god of solving cases.

"No clue."

"No trace of the second."

“Three no information.”

Zeng Anmin stared at Bai Ziqing and sneered:
"Why! Even if Sherlock Holmes came, he would have to give up."

Bai Ziqing looked confused.

"What black silk are you caressing?"

Zeng Anmin...

"Someone you don't know."

Zeng Anmin was too lazy to pay attention to him.

"Who said there are no clues?"

Bai Ziqing went straight back to his desk and pulled out a stack of documents.

"Look! This is the summary of the three departments of the Imperial City Department, the Ministry of Justice, and the Dali Temple in recent days."

"We also asked an expert from the Xuanzhen Division to draw the true face of the man in the bamboo hat."

"Of course it's just a deduction, how exactly..."

"You won't know until you see it yourself."

There was a flattering smile on Bai Ziqing's face.

Zeng Anmin glanced at him.

I took the document he handed over.

Just a casual glance.

Just this one look.

His hand suddenly stopped.

His brows were knit together tightly.

He looked at the facial portrait of the man in the bamboo hat deduced by the master of Xuanzhen Division.

"This person..."

"I think I've seen this somewhere before..."
