Royal Gold Medal County Magistrate

After a period of rectification, Fang Zheng Yi felt relieved about the newspaper.

If there were no unexpected events, tomorrow morning, Lu Fa would bring the reforged Sword of Imperial Authority, and he could set off with the people he needed to take.

The specific situation in Jianjiang was still unknown.

He only hoped that those he sent out would cause fewer troubles.

However, the ministers in the court were very active, spurred by the newspaper.

The first batch of grain, totaling less than twenty thousand shi, had already begun to be transported to Jianjiang.

If they went by land, perhaps the grain could arrive even before he did.

At night, Fang Zheng Yi tossed and turned, unable to sleep.

He always felt like he was missing something, and he carefully recalled the various events that had occurred recently in his mind.

The matters in the capital had been arranged properly, and he had allowed Xiao Tao and the others to return to Taoyuan County, so there shouldn't be any problems. Moreover, the Crown Prince could help take care of them.

The only thing he couldn't figure out was the mysterious Prince Wu.

He had clearly sent people to inquire about his situation, but until now, no news had been received.

He also couldn't contact the spies he had sent out.

Fang Zheng Yi thought about it until his head ached, but he couldn't come up with any clues.

Forget it! He might as well continue writing letters to Luo Ningxin; perhaps he could gain something.

But the little bit of stuff in his head had already been squeezed dry... What to do?

He could only copy song lyrics!

With a clear idea, Fang Zheng Yi picked up paper and pen and silently wrote.

"I've dried up the silence, regretting my impulsiveness..."

After finishing, Fang Zheng Yi proudly flicked the letter.

This letter won't win you over!?

...................

The next morning, Fang Zheng Yi finished washing up and was having breakfast with Xiao Tao and the others.

The servants in the house had all been dismissed a day in advance.

Fang Zheng Yi had also thoughtfully paid severance fees.

Many people wept bitterly.

Although Fang Zheng Yi was unkind, fortunately, Xiao Tao was in charge of the affairs of the mansion.

It was really hard to find a master family as good as the Fang residence.

Although the wages were average, there was little work to do. Unlike other places, the masters always had an imperious attitude, treating the servants as less than human.

Moreover, the food in the mansion was also good, so no one wanted to leave.

In the end, Xiao Tao had to persuade them at length before everyone dispersed.

Not long after breakfast, Lu Fa led several people into the courtyard.

Upon seeing Fang Zheng Yi, he immediately handed the reforged sword to Fang Zheng Yi.

Fang Zheng Yi immediately drew the sword, then couldn't help but sigh.

It's bad! It's too bad. It would have been better to just weld the original broken blade back on.

Although the strength wouldn't be enough, at least it would look decent.

The reforged sword no longer had that compelling sharpness.

Moreover, the patterns on the sword were completely different.

Seeing his expression, Lu Fa quickly explained, "Master, the blacksmith told me that with his ability, this sword can't be the same as before no matter what."

"Moreover, because it was needed too urgently, the sword wasn't completely forged and there was no time to sharpen it, so it may be a little brittle. It's best not to use it..."

It seems that the forging craftsmen of the Great Qian royal family are far superior to those in Taoyuan County!

However, this was not something unacceptable.

Fang Zheng Yi could only nod, put the sword back into its scabbard, and said disappointedly, "Let it be. Anyway, it's just a ceremonial thing."

"I'll redo it when I have time in the future."

Then he looked at Wu Sheng and smiled again, "Master Wu, it's been a long time! I heard you're living a pretty good life?"

Wu Sheng swallowed and said with unease, forcing a smile, "So-so, just so-so. Master Fang is too kind."

"I wonder... What important matter does Master Fang have for me?"

Wu Sheng had been panicking all the way, being dragged up by Lu Fa in the middle of the night.

Without explanation, he was sent to the capital. Lu Fa didn't tell him anything.

He still didn't know what was going on.

Fang Zheng Yi walked up to him and patted Wu Sheng on the shoulder.

"Why are you still calling me Master Fang? We're all from Taoyuan County."

"You're not even willing to call me Master!"

"You're not treating me as one of your own!"

Wu Sheng immediately panicked, "Oh no, I wouldn't dare! Master, hello!"

Seeing this, Fang Zheng Yi smiled with satisfaction, "Good! You don't need to be afraid. It's nothing big. This time, this official is preparing to take you to Jianjiang."

"This official has always admired your talent!"

"There's nothing else to do in Jianjiang. Don't you know how to make movies and run brothels? Your master, I, will be very lonely there, and I need someone like you!"

"Come up with some new tricks for me when you get to Jianjiang!"

Upon hearing this, a look of surprise appeared on Wu Sheng's face. He stroked his beard and smiled, "I didn't expect... Master is actually my soulmate!"

"Wu Sheng will die without regrets!"

The people around looked at Wu Sheng with disdain.

Flatterer!

After speaking, Wu Sheng sneakily took out a strip of cloth from his arms and held it in front of Fang Zheng Yi, "Master, please take a look! This is the latest treasure I've researched!"

Fang Zheng Yi took the strip of cloth and looked at it carefully. It was just a circle of cloth, nothing special.

He asked doubtfully, "This thing is...?"

Wu Sheng smiled proudly and whispered, "This humble one calls this thing a leg ring! Wearing it on a woman's thigh will greatly increase the temptation. Master doesn't know, but Snow Moon Tower is now...."

The sound of hushed conversations kept reaching the ears of the surrounding men, and they couldn't help but show ambiguous expressions.

Even Dharma Master Huijue's saliva was about to drip!

Bai Yi and Xiao Tao spat and turned away, their faces red.

Fang Zheng Yi was speechless...

You kid went to the research institute and researched this! You really found a treasure!

I'm a modern person, and I'm actually being fooled by you!

Fang Zheng Yi looked at Wu Sheng with admiration and said solemnly, "Master Wu is a great talent! This official is convinced. Having someone like you is truly a blessing for the Great Jing!"

"It seems that this official has found the right person!"

Wu Sheng looked proud, "Master, please don't say that. This is nothing! This humble one still has many ideas that haven't been verified. I hope Master will comment on them when there's a chance in the future!"

Then he said with emotion, "This humble one only found his ideal after coming to Taoyuan County... Thinking about my previous life, it was simply a mess!"

"But... this humble one now has doubts!"

"Master Wu, please speak!"

Wu Sheng hesitated and said, "These things that this humble one does... I'm afraid they won't be tolerated by the outside world."

Fang Zheng Yi didn't care at all. Look how enthusiastic the reaction in the capital is. Where is the outside world not tolerating it?

The officials' eyes have been burned by you, and no one has come to me to find fault.

Fang Zheng Yi waved his hand, "Don't be afraid! Since we want to pursue excitement, let's carry it through to the end!"

"With this official here, you can rest assured!"

Wu Sheng respectfully bowed, "Then this humble one will listen to Master's orders!"

After speaking, Wu Sheng took a step back.

Fang Zheng Yi's gaze shifted to another person, and he smiled, "Lao Qi, I'll have to trouble you to come with me this time!"
