Great Wei scholar

Prince Yongping sighed, then spoke.

"Brother Xu, brother Yu understands in his heart, so he won't persuade you much, but if one day, the king of Huaiping County really troubles you, brother Yu will also have a way to avenge you."

Prince Yongping said so.

"Revenge? How to get revenge?"

Xu Qingxiao was a little curious, he was just a prince, how could he take revenge on King Huaiping?

"It's very simple. The king of Huaiping County has a precious daughter. She is beautiful and charming. She will come to participate in the Taiping Poetry Fair. But the foolish brother is not talented. When the time comes, she will make a show of her shame and amaze her. Heart."

"When the two families get married, I will let her stay alone in the vacant room. Isn't this revenge?"

Mu Nanping said seriously.

Xu Qingxiao: "..."

Good guy, the thinking is clear, I have to give it a thumbs up.

"Goodbye, brother."

Xu Qingxiao raised his glass and said, and Mu Nanping couldn't help but smile, it seemed that he was serious.

"By the way, Brother Mu, what kind of martial artist is this King Huaiping?"

Xu Qingxiao asked.

"A person who is at the peak of the fifth rank, who is about to step into the king's realm with half a foot, is very strong, and the Great Wei Dynasty may be able to enter the top [-]."

Mu Nanping replied.

Fifth-Rank Peak?

Step into the fourth rank with half a foot.

Xu Qingxiao was a little surprised, he thought the other party was a third rank or a second rank.

Didn't expect it to be only rank five?

Is Wu Zhe fifth rank so strong?Can you crush yourself to death with just an aura?

It seems that one must practice hard on the path of martial arts.

"Brother Xu, to be honest, instead of surpassing him in martial arts, you can actually surpass him in another aspect, such as official or Confucianism."

"In terms of martial arts, let's forget about it, brother Xu. We are all scholars, and martial arts is boring. Besides, martial arts pay attention to the basics. King Huaiping grew up soaked in elixir, and he took a meal after he grew up. The extremely domineering animal blood strengthens the body."

"Let's not think too much about it."

When Mu Nanping spoke, he didn't mean to hurt Xu Qingxiao, but it was the fact.

It can be said that Confucianism and Taoism do not pay attention to foundation, talent is talent, and poor families can produce noble children.

But martial arts is different, the cultivation of the foundation from an early age is extremely important, the greater the resistance as you progress to the later stage, and there are many people who are stuck in the seventh rank and can't get up for a lifetime.

It is a good thing that Xu Qingxiao has an idea, but it is basically impossible.

"Well, just asking casually."

Xu Qingxiao didn't say much, and the two started talking about other things. It was nothing more than Mu Nanping flattering Xu Qingxiao, thinking that Xu Qingxiao's words were a bit shocking, and Xu Qingxiao just said a few words modestly.

At the end, Mu Nanping mentioned one more thing.

"Brother Xu, are you used to staying in the Ministry of Punishment?"

he asked.

"It's okay, it's very easy, don't take care of everything yourself, and you can get the money when the time comes, which is pretty good."

Xu Qingxiao replied.

"Sigh, I don't know what's going on. Brother Xu clearly has eternal talent, but he didn't expect to offend so many people in one go."

"Fortunately, Brother Xu has military officers and them to protect him, which can be regarded as some backing. It's alright, it's getting late."

"Brother Xu, Brother Yu will take his leave first. If you have anything to do, just come to Yongping Palace to find me."

It was getting late, Mu Nanping got up to leave, Xu Qingxiao sent Mu Nanping away, and sent the letter away by the way.

After completing these things, Xu Qingxiao returned to the guest room to rest.

At this moment, the voice sounded.

"Boy, did you hear what he said? The road to martial arts is extremely bumpy. If you don't have a good foundation innately, it will be difficult the day after tomorrow."

"What he said is absolutely correct. Two days ago, that so-and-so Duke of Huaiping had medicinal energy in his blood. He soaked in the medicinal pond since he was a child, and invested a lot of capital. Now he is only a fifth-rank."

"But he was wrong about one thing. It will be very difficult for the king of Huaiping County to be promoted to the fourth rank in his life. His foundation is still not good. Unless he can get the legendary blood of the real dragon, otherwise, he wants to step into the fourth rank and become the king. , as hard as climbing to the sky."

It was the voice of Danshen Gujing.

The Alchemy Ancient Scripture has the ability to enlarge and shrink itself, and it is hidden in Xu Qingxiao's sleeve on weekdays, and no one notices it.

"I haven't reached the corresponding realm yet, and if I can break through to the eighth rank, I don't need to worry about it for the time being."

Xu Qingxiao opened her mouth and answered like this.

He could hear the meaning of the ancient scriptures of the alchemy god, and wanted to let him give him the medicinal materials to refine the Breaking Realm Pill.

"Boy, you are good at everything, but you are too guarded. Let me tell you directly. You don't have to be perfect to swallow the Breaking Realm Pill. You can directly break through to the next realm by swallowing any realm."

"Moreover, the Boundary Breaker Pill is a perfect Boundary Breaker, and there will be absolutely no side effects. If you try it for the first time, you will understand."

The Alchemy Ancient Scripture continued, luring Xu Qingxiao to refine the Boundary Pill.

"Senior, if this is the case, then it is even more impossible for the junior to refine the eighth-rank Breakthrough Pill. It is already in the middle stage. Wouldn't it be a blood loss if it is refined?"

"It's better for the senior to tell me directly what medicinal materials are needed for the Qipin Breakthrough Pill, so that I can find them."

Xu Qingxiao said.

Xu Qingxiao doesn't know if there are any side effects of the Breaking Realm Pill.

But when he could rely on himself, Xu Qingxiao still wanted to rely on himself, and when he couldn't do it, it wouldn't be too late to get the Breakthrough Pill.

"Forget it, when you reach the seventh rank, you will naturally understand everything."

There is nothing to say in the ancient scriptures of Danshen.

Since Xu Qingxiao is on guard, let Xu Qingxiao think about it on his own. Anyway, at the seventh rank, Xu Qingxiao will know many things by himself.

"Senior, don't be angry, don't worry, when the time is ripe, this junior will naturally try his best to gather the medicinal materials."

Xu Qingxiao would not offend the Ancient Alchemy Scripture, after all, sooner or later, he would still need the Ancient Alchemy Scripture.

Just like after the seventh rank.

Now that I am a scholar and an official of the Ministry of Criminal Justice, there are a lot of things to do, and there will probably be more things in the future.

It is impossible to have time to practice martial arts, and even if you have time to practice, the speed is absolutely slow, and it is extremely slow. Sooner or later, you will need the help of the ancient scriptures of the gods.

"kindness."

Dan Shen Gu Jing replied, and then continued to fall into a deep sleep.

In this way, Xu Qingxiao also began to continue to practice.

He first tempered his physical body once, the Golden Crow Body Tempering Technique, and then rolled the Golden Crow Qi and blood, turning it into inner Qi, and after going through three great cycles in his body, he submerged into the Qi veins.

It would take at least three or four months to open up the third Qi meridian at this speed of practice.

It's a bit slow, but compared to normal warriors, it's already extremely fast.

For a normal ninth-rank warrior, it would take three to fifty years to reach the eighth-rank. This requires the assistance of various elixir medicines. I don't need anything, and I can complete the normal practice of condensing Qi in three to four months.

But Xu Qingxiao understands a truth.

That is, after three or four months, I really have been promoted to the eighth rank, and without the next level of strange art, my cultivation speed will instantly return to its original shape.

This is also a hassle.

The only solution at that time is to rely on the ancient scriptures of the alchemy god.

After a while, Xu Qingxiao didn't think much about it, and the sky was almost dawn.

It took nearly six hours for the three weeks, and now it is five quarters of Yin time, and in three quarters of an hour, it is time to go to the Ministry of Punishment.

Xu Qingxiao set off and went to the Ministry of Punishment.

It's just that this day, like yesterday, no one still pays attention to me.

The file library still did not give itself a corresponding file on the grounds of being busy with business.

It was another day of paddling, and Xu Qingxiao's mind was very calm. He knew that the Ministry of Criminal Justice deliberately cold-hearted him, and some people were also targeting him, just hoping that something would happen to him.

Now that he understands, Xu Qingxiao won't take the bait.

Three days later.

Xu Qingxiao received three letters, which were sent by Yang Bao and Yang Hu. The two were excited for a long time when they learned that Xu Qingxiao called them to the capital to do things for Xu Qingxiao, and they specially asked someone to help them answer the letter.

The content of the letter was very simple. The two had already set off and were expected to arrive in the imperial city within five days. They also brought several other trustworthy brothers along with them.

The main reason is that Xu Qingxiao will not have enough manpower. This Xu Qingxiao has already said in the letter that if there is someone trustworthy, bring them along.

The second letter was sent by senior brother Chen Xinghe, telling himself that he planned to come to the imperial capital to prepare for the imperial examination, and at the same time see what could help him, and that he would live together when the time came.

This made Xu Qingxiao a little happy. After all, his senior brother is also a smart person. If he comes, he can indeed help him with some things.

For example, the grandsons of Lord An and the others can be taught by their senior brothers on weekdays, and they can make plans by themselves.

The third letter was sent by Li Xin.

Tell Xu Qingxiao that the water truck has been built, and take Ping'an County as the test object. There are four counties around Ping'an County, and there is a big river a hundred miles away, which is very in line with the construction requirements of the water truck.

As for the effect, we still have to wait a few days.

At that moment, Xu Qingxiao wrote back, telling Chen Xinghe his address, and at the same time wrote back to Li Xin, asking Li Xin to keep an eye on it carefully. If there is nothing important, it is best to keep an eye on it all the time.

Reply immediately if there is any situation.

Just like that, Xu Qingxiao began to wait quietly in the Criminal Department.

The next day.

Finally, something happened that made Xu Qingxiao happy.

The school that His Majesty gave him was completed, so he didn't need to live in the inn. After An Guogong knew about this, he specially sent some maids and servants, but Xu Qingxiao still politely refused, and An Guogong didn't say much.

Regarding servants, Xu Qingxiao is not in a hurry. When Yang Bao and Yang Hu brothers come, let them do odd jobs first. Maids and servants still have to choose by themselves. You can’t take one from others, and it’s not a precaution. It’s just this kind of thing. It's better to be cautious.

The name of the school, Xu Qingxiao named it 'Shouren School'.

Please ask the female relatives to come over and make the bed, and after cleaning up, Xu Qingxiao settled down with peace of mind.

The school is very large, with a lobby and an inner hall. On the left is the teaching area and guest rooms, and on the right is the dining room and utility room. In addition, there is a large yard with a small pond planted with willows, which is very nice.

The only pity is that His Majesty gave me a place to live, not me. If I don't become an official, the real estate is not my own, so I still have to work hard to make money to buy a house.

That's it.

After another day spent like salted fish.

Yang Hu and Yang Bao brothers finally came.

After they came, Xu Qingxiao was relieved.

The entire Ministry of Punishment didn't like him at all, and no matter what he did, he would be hindered. Although Zhou Nan was not someone who was placed here by others, he was not one of his own either.

There are a lot of things for Zhou Nan to do, and Zhou Nan will only keep a low voice, say good things on both sides, and be bullied in various ways.

Pity Zhou Nan, but what Xu Qingxiao knows better is that Zhou Nan is holding him back. If he wants to gain a foothold in the Ministry of Punishment, he must have his own cronies, and he must deal with this matter quickly.

Otherwise, I will really be in the hands of the Ministry of Punishment, Confucianism, and some other forces.

Fortunately, Yang Bao and others are here.

Then...it's time to fight back.
