"This official has long seen that the golden stone dwarf seems to be loyal, and there must be deceit in it! That's why I asked the two of you to accompany him to find out. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 info This official also knows that Liu Daochang and Mr. Feng are both first-class figures in my Shenzhou land, and they will definitely be able to adapt to the situation and see through the dwarf's conspiracy. I didn't tell the two of you in advance, because I was afraid that the two of you would accidentally show your feet. Now the two of them have really lived up to the expectations of their officials, not only to let the golden stone dwarf reveal its true form, but also to kill the demon dragon lurking in the dwarf barbarians, so that the barbarians will bow down to their hearts and raise the prestige of our great cadres, which is really gratifying! When they return to the great cadres, the official will definitely play the Son of Heaven and let him greatly praise the two!"

In the big tent of the Daqian camp, the reward made Lord Li Wenmin slap the table, majestic, as if everything had already been made in his chest. After listening to Liu Xuanying and Feng Yinqiu's report on this operation in the Sgut Mountain Range, he was not only not surprised, but also applauded the table, and this time he did not hesitate to affirm Feng and Liu.

"As for the demon god's possession, it turned out to be a golden stone dwarf, not the sword of benevolence, since this matter has been confirmed by the dwarves, then the official will immediately start to negotiate with those European Sects, so that they can return us justice!

Speaking of excitement, Master Li also slapped the desk with a loud bang, foaming at the mouth, and his face was red, as if he really did not swear to give up if he did not wash away this grievance.

"Look, that's right, that Sword of Benevolence is simply a madman, and it can't be some demon from the lower realms. I'm right, right? And even you, Master Li, think so, it doesn't seem like he's really that stupid, could he really have seen that there was something wrong with that golden stone dwarf in advance?

Coming out of the big tent, the female mage Motri, who was watching the whole process, was also a little impressed by the head of the envoy today. Today, she was invited to observe the whole process, although she was stunned by the encounter between Liu Xuanying and Feng Yinqiu in the Great Mountain Range, and she was also surprised that the mediocre Lord Li was able to plan such a way for the enemy.

"It's weird. Feng Yinqiu sneered. "It's just that last night we sent the news to the old man of the Zhang family through the dwarves first, and asked him to go and discuss with this Lord Li first. Otherwise, it would be strange for him to hear that the majestic warrior he personally named was actually a devil, and he would not faint to death in anger. ”

"So how could he tell such a lie without difficulty, that he had foreseen the true face of the dwarf?"

Maybe he really thought so. Feng Yinqiu smiled.

"How is it possible? Although this Master Li is old and mediocre, he has not reached the point of dementia, right?"

"Of course it's possible. All you need is someone to be careful. Feng Yinqiu shook his head, how many useless nerds can be, it is unimaginable for people who have not really come into contact with them. Especially Master Li, who has read moral articles all his life, lives purely in his own world, and refuses to accept anything that destroys his cognitive beliefs. "The more stupid and narrow-minded a person is, the more he only accepts what he is willing to accept. As long as the old gentleman of the Zhang family induces him from shallow to deep and hints a few words, he will naturally have such an illusion, as if he was really a little suspicious at that time. Once this feeling is taken seriously, it will gradually become firm, then gradually escalate, and finally even he himself will be convinced of what he is saying. ”

"Is that really the case?" haha—" The female mage also laughed dumbly. "It's hard to imagine that this fool is the supreme commander of your mission. Is your Emperor blind or a fool? Are you going to wait for him to take you all to the dunghill with his eyes closed?"

"Be careful, don't let anyone else hear your slanderous words against the Emperor. For Confucianism, the emperor is the embodiment of the gods in the present world, the agent of the will of God. If those bureaucrats hear it, they will come desperately to fight you. Feng Yinqiu lowered his voice and reminded, now there are quite a few people in this camp who can understand the Euro language, and it is a huge trouble for the female mage to be heard by others. Of course, his words are the same. "When a general with a large army in the northwest could rebel at any time, and the collapse of the empire was imminent, no one, whether it was the emperor or the central minister, would care much about a state that had been cut off for decades. Sending an envoy to the continent of Europe was just a courtesy tribute to the Celestial Empire, and I doubt that many people in the Imperial Court still remember it. That Master Li also had a hard time surviving in the bureaucracy, and he wanted to find a little honor in the late stage of his political career, so he found a way to be this envoy. He is only nominally the supreme governor, but you can see that even his own thoughts and decisions are actually secretly decided by others..."

"According to you, your envoys don't really have much weight?" said Master Motri, looking a little surprised. "Then what about you, Liu, and Mu, even if you are in the Western Continent, you don't seem to be a simple person, right?"

"Of course we have our own purposes. ”

"What is the purpose?" the female mage always behaves like a curious baby.

Feng Yinqiu didn't answer the female mage's words, but asked, "Is what I asked you to do is done?"

"Of course it's done. The concept you need has already been put into the old man's head, and as you say, as long as you have the concept, he will fill in the details by his imagination. But that scroll really took me a lot of energy..."The female mage's eyes rolled. "You said you actually defeated a dragon this time... Being able to truly change form, this is at least an eighth-order divine technique in the Beast God or Life Realm, right? This must be an old dragon. That's fine, I don't want you to owe you a favor, just one thing on your dragon's corpse..."

"Are you talking about this?" Feng Yinqiu took out the folding bag from his arms, took out a fist-sized crystal from it, shook it in front of the female mage, and then put it in again.

Although it was only a glimpse, the female mage's big eyes immediately bulged like pigeon eggs, and her voice stammered: "This... This... Is this the dragon crystal of an elemental dragon? an old dragon of the earth element? I thought... I thought..."

"Do you think I don't know the true value of this thing?" said Feng Yinqiu. "The chief dwarven priest has told me that the dragon crystal of this elemental dragon was a rare treasure even in the heyday of the Arcane Empire. Mr. Liu and I didn't have much use for this, so I was ready to sell it. Twenty seven-ring arcane scrolls, or seven eight-ring arcane scrolls, or three nine-ring arcane scrolls that cannot be repeated. And as Master Motri, you did me a great favor before, and I can give you a 7% discount. ”

"I didn't know you could still be such a philistine. The female mage looked him up and down again as if she had seen the wind for the first time. "Well, the Elemental Dragon's Dragon Crystal is indeed worth the price. It seems that the dwarves also have good vision and judgment. But I'm surprised that they wouldn't want this dragon crystal. If it was a dragon crystal of another species, it really didn't appeal to them, but it was an earth element...... It's no wonder that you can defeat such a dragon, the battle between the same elemental realms and divine arts can easily form a one-sided situation, and this dragon may only have some physical fighting instincts left in front of the dwarven Earth Mother altar. ”

The wind smiled and said nothing. He and Liu Xuanying only stated the general situation, and Lord Li was definitely not interested in knowing the details of how to fight, and of course they didn't need to tell others.

"The price is good, but do you think I'll be able to afford ......it? Exceptions are made to the great nobles of Oroyosta and the rich landlords of Inclere..."

Feng Yinqiu pointed: "Then you can be a broker." Mage Motri, since you are a member of the Royal Arcane Academy, you must know a lot. The seven percent discount I give you, you will have at least three tiers of commission. Or you can misquote the price and give the person in charge of the purchase a portion of the benefit. For example, you can add a few hundred gems and crystals to my offer, but you don't have to actually give them to me, but you share them equally with the head of the academy. This is generally effective for loosely organized forces such as the Academy. Because the money of the academy is not the money of the person in charge. Of course they will definitely have regulatory measures, but it is not difficult to get around, for example......"

The female mage was dumbfounded when she heard this, and it was not until half an evening that she came back to her senses: "This method is really despicable...... Maybe it works, though. As soon as I go back to the academy, it will be easy to find a buyer. ”

"It's just a small business trick that everybody in there can use. "The wind is soft, and the wind is light. "Most importantly, I hope to see the arcane scrolls needed soon. ”

Of course, it's okay to hurry up and see the others. This is what Feng Yinqiu didn't say.

###

In the courtyard of the Zhang family's house, a small, light, elegant and exquisite family banquet is underway.

"Okay, good, Mr. Mu Zhai can still brew such an authentic 'Dongzhou Brew' in this foreign land, which is really remarkable, and this Guifu chef's 'Crystal Clotted Shrimp' is really a perfect match! ”

Even after coming to the European continent for so many years, the chefs of the Zhang family have been passed down for three generations, but they still maintain the first-hand Suyang side dishes at a very high level, and after adding some local ingredients, they have gone further in seasoning and style. This is simply a gap between heaven and earth compared to the rough food of the Euro people, even if it is the top aristocratic family banquet on the West Coast, it is like pig food compared to this table of dishes. Coupled with the rice wine that the Zhang family has brewed and stored for many years, Li Wenmin and Master Li ate heartily and applauded again and again.

This is mainly because Lord Li's mood today was originally very good, if it was when he just arrived here, everything was not going well, and he would not be able to swallow even if he gave him dragon meat.

And now the situation is very good, although it is still a little short of Siyi Binfu and Wanbang Dynasty, but it is definitely the best situation that the Shenzhou ethnic group has ever created in this European land. Since the Qianyuan Avenue was repaired and those barbarians saw the virtue of the Celestial Empire's prestige and education, these local nobles in Europe were all condescending and condescending. And Liu Xuanying and the two of them were only ordered to go to the dwarven lair, and immediately saw through the tricks of the demons, saved the lives of the dwarves, and made them also grateful, and vowed never to violate this human territory again, except for the big trouble on the west coast. The barbarian nobles weren't all grateful to Dade.

However, Master Li also understands that these achievements are not completely dependent on the prestige and moral education of the Celestial Empire, and if it were not for the foundation laid by this Zhang family in this European land for decades, manpower, material resources, connections and other substantive things, it would be difficult to show his prestige and education.

Therefore, he is very grateful and valued by the Zhang family's advocacy of the old man of the Jin Dynasty, and it is indeed his great luck that these remnants of the previous dynasty have been attached. Not to mention that this old man is deeply knowledgeable, and he should also be amazed by his kung fu in moral articles, and the calligraphy of the royal style, which is already rare, even if it is placed in the court, will make many great Confucians embarrassed, and it is worthy of being a famous scholarly family from the previous dynasty.

"Mr. Mu Zhai, come, this cup is my official to you. If it weren't for your great help, the majesty of my Divine Celestial Empire would never have been able to illuminate the land of Europe as it is today. ”

Mr. Zhang was colorless, but his face was heavy, and he said gloomily: "I dare not be ashamed." Speaking of which, the old man has not yet told Lord Li the crime of not knowing people that day, and he can't imagine that the golden stone dwarf is actually a demon from another world, if it weren't for Lord Li's discernment and letting Mr. Feng and Daochang Liu go to the test, maybe sooner or later he would fall for the trick of that demon. ”

"Whereever, why should Mr. Makisai be concerned. How can a person be a saint or a sage?" Lord Li was relieved instead. "You are also dedicated to establishing a firm foothold in this European land for my great work, and it is indeed thanks to the help of the dwarves led by the golden stone dwarves that we can complete the Qianyuan Avenue and rise to prestige in this foreign land. I heard that the demon dragon in the dwarf race has been lurking in it for three hundred years, and is still seeking a high position in it, although those barbarians are stupid, it also shows that these demons are really good at hiding and concealing. ”

"Also, the official actually had to think about it thanks to Mr. Mu Zhai's casual reminder at that time. Speaking of which, at least half of this work should be given to Mr. Makisai. ”

"Where, where is it, the old man just said casually that day, after all, the heart of the non-my race must be different, and there is no big mistake in being careful. It was still Master Li's keen mind that left a back hand everywhere, so Mr. Feng and Daochang Liu went to test it, and sure enough, they saw through the true face of the demon. Speaking of this, Mr. Zhang hesitated slightly, thought for a while and asked: "I heard Master Li say before that Mr. Feng was born in the rivers and lakes, and he was a little arbitrary and disobedient to Wang Hua. Now Master Li seems to have a different opinion of him?"

"Because I have only understood one thing in the past two days, it seems that there was some misunderstanding before. Well, let's talk to Mr. Makisai about it. After thinking about it, Master Li Wenmin also smiled faintly, took another sip of wine, and spoke slowly. "It is said that when this envoy group was first established, Li Zhihong, the secretary of the ministry, had a private meeting with his own officials. After talking with the official at night, he repeatedly reminded the official to be careful when he sent foreign envoys. ”

Uncle Zhang was also stunned when he heard this: "Oh, why does the heavenly official of the Ministry of Officials care about this matter of envoying to foreign countries? Even if he cares, he should go to discuss with the Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites, why would he come to find an adult?"

"That's a private matter, of course. Moreover, the official said that he is also a distant relative, both from the Li family in Jizhou, and he has to call me a second uncle if he really wants to count his seniority. Li Wenmin smiled slightly, looking unfathomable. In fact, his memory of the details of this detailed discussion is a little vague, but there is a thought in his mind that is unusually clear, that is, there must be a very powerful person who has hinted at some extremely important employment matters with him. He motioned to the envoys that one of them was of great importance, and that I should be more tolerant and take care of him, and that if there was any indecision, I could listen to him. I always thought it was Liu Daochang, after all, Liu Daochang was the elder of the Zhenwu Sect, and the ancestor of the Zhenwu Sect, Xuan Xuanzi, had great contributions to the Jiangshan Sheji in his early years, and even the first emperor and the Wuji Elder were extremely respected. Therefore, although Liu Daochang does not have an official position, it is natural that he can get a heavenly official to deliberately mention something. ”

"Oh... That makes sense..."Mr. Zhang nodded. A few years ago, the vengeful high priest came from the east and conspired and cooperated with him for several years, so he naturally told him about the situation in the land of Shenzhou in recent decades.

But along the way, although Liu Daochang was a little confused in the rituals and festivals because he didn't read the sage's scriptures, he was unambiguous in his hard work before and after the saddle. How does this look need someone to take care of it? It's like he's taking care of others. Moreover, he was supposed to be a person who should have done a lot in both the government and the opposition, but at this time he came to join this envoy group and go to a foreign land thousands of miles away, although it was the grace of the Holy Lord to this foreign vassal king, but there must be a reason in it...... "With the slight wine, Master Li felt a flash of inspiration in his mind, and all the things that had been ignored before gradually became clear, and they continued to connect with each other, forming a new picture that he himself had to admire for his judgment. Except for Daochang Liu, the only person in this envoy group who seemed to be abrupt was the external interpreter Mr. Feng. Before leaving, the official also specially questioned Zhang Shilang of the Ministry of Rites, and Lord Zhang was hesitant in his words, only saying that he was a distant relative. The official also wondered why he, who had always been steady and never selfish, would do such a thing, and later heard from others that it turned out that someone from the Nangong family had come to look for him, so he added an additional position to the envoy group as an external interpreter. At that time, although the official felt strange, he didn't think much about it, and thought that it was a friend of a junior in the Nangong family who came to eat, so what kind of distant relatives were naturally his nonsense. ”

"After coming to this European continent, I thought that this was just Mr. Feng who came to eat, but he did something with Daochang Liu. Although it is true that people in the rivers and lakes come arbitrarily and do not know the number of ways to be disciplined and moral, it can also be seen that it is not an ordinary origin. The official recalled carefully a few nights ago that Zhang Shilang heard that he had something to do with the Zhengyi Sect, and at this time, he thought about Li Shangshu's advice and thought about Liu Daochang's intention, and it suddenly became clear. Although it is not certain what the identity of this Mr. Wind is, it is certain that he has an extraordinary background. ”

"Oh......" the old man of the Zhang family nodded. Although the sage said that wealth and nobility cannot be lewd, and power cannot be bent, but when it comes to officialdom, as long as there is half a point of this thought, people will definitely die without a place to be buried. For people whose origins are unknown but who must have a deep background, it is natural to be cautious and friendly, polite, and preferably natural and not pretentious.

Master Li was completely immersed in this rare clear state of mind, and muttered to himself while pouring himself a drink: "... It is possible to be born in Longhu Mountain, but he can let the officials of the Ministry of Heaven come to privately tell the officials to take more care of them, but it is inconvenient to say the name directly, and he can also let the elders of the True Martial Sect help him along the way, but he still takes the path of the Nangong family, and it can't be ......"

Speaking of this, Master Li Wenmin's eyes suddenly opened, as if he had suddenly thought of something extremely incredible, and he had just lowered his head and drank a sip of wine in his mouth, squirting out violently, soaking the hem of his shirt and beard.

"Lord Li, Lord Li?" Uncle Zhang was also stunned, this Lord Li has always been the most polite, and it is unbelievable to make such a situation.

But such an embarrassed Lord Li Wenmin didn't care, but there was a look of surprise and joy on his face, as if he was still a little frightened, just like a poor ghost who wanted money and wanted crazy but suddenly got a shocking fortune, and there was a little fear that he couldn't hold it in his extreme joy.

After a few breaths, Master Li came back to his senses and apologized to the old man of the Zhang family again and again: "Rude, rude, this official is really rude......

"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter. Ruxiang, take Lord Li to change his clothes......" The old man of the Zhang family hurriedly greeted the maid, and after waiting for Lord Li to leave, there was a flash of essence in a pair of cloudy old eyes.
