Chapter 39 Becoming a Non-Staff Member



Yi was helpless. The Ministry of Justice was also highly valued by the emperor, and it would be bad to offend him, so she promised her daughter that she could ride the cow out.

"How about you tell Mr. Zhang's fortune and I'll let you ride the big yellow ox for a bit?"

"real?"

"When has mother ever lied to anyone?"

A moment later, Zhang Yunqi saw Jun Shutong again. The last time he saw her was at her first birthday party.

"What does Master Zhang want to calculate?"

Jun Shutong spoke straight to the point, and because he was reluctant, there was emotion in his words.

In the Dayu Kingdom, only people from the Jun family dared to speak to Zhang Yunqi in this tone. If other ministers saw it, they would definitely be shocked. This man is known as the Living King of Hell, and Your Majesty must be polite to him.

Zhang Yunqi hesitated for a while, but didn't know how to start.

He came here not to tell fortunes but to ask for something.

"Your forehead is low and narrow, your brows are furrowed, and your face is gloomy. What difficulties have you encountered, Master Zhang?"

[No wonder Qi Mingxiao asked me to come to Miss Jun. He could tell from my face that I was in trouble.]

Hearing Jun Shuhutong's inner voice, Zhang Yunqi became even more respectful: "To be honest, I didn't come here to ask for a divination, but to ask Miss Jun for help with something important."

"Master Zhang, please tell me first. I'm just a child. If I can't help, please don't blame me."

"I dare not."

So Zhang Yunqi briefly and concisely recounted the whole story.

There was an assassin imprisoned in the Tianlao and was to be executed tomorrow, but he escaped last night. Emperor Shunde was furious. If the assassin could not be caught by noon tomorrow, his position as the Minister of Justice would be replaced.

Jun Shutong was helpless: [I'm just a feng shui expert, not a surveillance camera, how can I find the criminal for you?]

[System, quickly check what's going on? ]

The system was also very fast: [The host has been found. The prisoner is Li Ji, imprisoned for attempting to assassinate the emperor. He did not escape on his own, but was rescued by someone.]

Someone in the prison has been bribed. They've teamed up with someone inside and outside the prison to drug the jailer. They're currently hiding in Yihong Tower. Once the news dies down, they'll leave the city.

So, Jun Shutong repeated the system's words with some exaggeration. Although Zhang Yunqi had heard the conversation between her and the system, he still thanked her repeatedly.

In his opinion, although this person called the system is invisible, he listens to Jun Shutong and is equivalent to a subordinate. What it finds is naturally what Miss Jun finds, and there is no difference.

[By the way, why did Li Ji want to assassinate the emperor?] Jun Shutong was very curious.

The system tutted twice and said disdainfully: [It's all because of your idiot emperor who doesn't care about people. He took a fancy to a woman in the Colosseum, but she was already engaged and rejected the emperor on the spot. In the end, the emperor still forced her to take him, and the woman committed suicide because of the humiliation.]

[Li Ji is the woman's brother. He sneaked into the palace and planned to assassinate the emperor to avenge his sister. However, he has no martial arts skills and was caught on the spot. He was to be executed the next day. However, he was rescued last night. Do you think Zhang Yunqi was anxious?]

Zhang Yunqi rubbed his hands awkwardly. He hadn't expected the system to check so thoroughly, as if it had personally experienced it. With such abilities, if he could work in the Ministry of Justice, he didn't know how much trouble he would save.

But the system is not a human, and it is impossible to communicate with it. Zhang Yunqi's eyes lit up, and he turned his attention to Jun Shutong.

"Well, Miss Jun, do you want to be an official in the Ministry of Justice?"

"Of course, you don't need to do anything on weekdays, nor do you need to report to the Ministry of Justice every day. You are still young, so just do what you need to do. If we have any difficulties with the case, you can just help us investigate."

What she meant was that she would hold a sinecure and continue to receive her salary, and would only take up her post when the Ministry of Justice needed her.

Yi was stunned with shock. She patted her cheeks to keep herself awake. How could he kidnap a child in the middle of a conversation?

"System, why would Lord Zhang let me become an official? Although I'm smart, cute, and quick-witted, I'm still so young and inexperienced!"

[Host, I think he must value your talent. Just like you humans say, a pearl will shine wherever it is.]

Jun Shutong touched his chin and agreed deeply.

Suddenly, her eyes rolled, and she immediately asked, "Then can I come and go freely in the Ministry of Justice?"

"Can I also enter and exit the Heavenly Prison and the Imperial Palace at will?"

Zhang Yunqi's eyes lit up. This was a good opportunity, so he quickly said, "Of course."

[Host, please agree to his request, and we can go to the Heavenly Prison to play.]

[Yes, let's go to the Heavenly Prison first to see the world, and then we can go to the Imperial Palace when we have the chance.]

Zhang Yunqi: It feels weird, and I can’t tell what’s wrong, but since Miss Jun agreed, it’s a good thing.

Yi secretly breathed a sigh of relief: It’s good that there is no other intention. Her daughter Tongtong is simple-minded and she is afraid that she will be kidnapped.

On second thought, it’s not impossible for the Ministry of Justice to help take care of the baby in the future.

"Okay, I promise."

Jun Shutong agreed, and Yi had no objection.

Zhang Yunqi left with satisfaction. This time he not only found out the assassin's hiding place, but also unexpectedly recruited Miss Jun, a non-staff member. It can be said that the trip was worthwhile.

With the help of system query, Zhang Yunqi captured the assassin without any effort and rescued the assassin's men.

For some reason, the news that Jun Shutong solved the case by fortune-telling spread throughout the court.

Three days later, Zhang Yunqi came to Jun's house with generous gifts to express his gratitude, but Jun Shutong was not at home. After asking, he found out that the girl had gone out on a cow.

Jun Shutong came to the street riding a big yellow ox. Passersby stopped to look at her as if they were seeing her father off. After the last incident of the girl riding a ox in the snow, everyone in the royal capital now knew that this was the legitimate daughter of the Jun family.
