Chapter 32: Nothing is good!
Visiting with a willow branch?
The dean already knew what was going on: "The Immortal Official doesn't know that even between a master and a disciple, they only teach the techniques and won't restrict the disciple's words and actions too much."
"Otherwise, wouldn't that be suppressing one's true nature? This would be of no benefit to one's cultivation or technique."
The underworld official understood.
He immediately resumed his earlier pretentious tone, "In that case, the case of Madam Cen being used for transportation, the affairs of ghosts and karma, will fall under the jurisdiction of my master. But when will the laws of the living world be resolved?"
"My master is extremely concerned about this matter! I hope the dean can send someone to handle it as soon as possible. My master is waiting for news."
Since I can't restrain His Highness, then forget it!
"Besides, living sacrifices happen all the time, and they have a significant impact on my master. This is something that you, the Astronomical Bureau, should be responsible for. Why don't you come up with any ideas?"
"Could it be that the world of the living is now filled with people who are content with nothing but empty positions? People who have no conscience or reverence?!"
"How dare you!" Li Cheng scolded sternly, "Even if you are an immortal official, you shouldn't be so rude to my master!"
"There are causes and effects in the underworld, and there are naturally laws in the world of the living. You haven't been watching us, so how do you know that we haven't done our job well?" he defended.
The underworld official was not annoyed: "Since I have done my best to do my job, why is there no result?"
"The cycle of cause and effect takes time, and the legal rulings naturally require approval." Li Ming echoed, "Although you are an official in the underworld, you are still an official. Don't you understand this principle?"
"Oh, we in the underworld are much more efficient than you." The underworld official snorted coldly: "Hurry up, otherwise the next time you come to question me, it won't be me, a mere official, but the City God."
After he finished speaking, his figure slowly disappeared.
Li Cheng and others breathed a sigh of relief.
Li Ming, who was standing next to the dean, whispered suspiciously, "Master, I've only heard that Yin officials are all ferocious and evil-looking, but why does that little official seem to have bruises all over his body?"
He had not walked far when the guards of the Yin officials who were still within his reach broke through.
He returned to the group and yelled, "Who cares? Take care of yourself!"
The shrill voice disappeared, and the figure also disappeared on the spot.
Li Ming was so confused after being scolded: "What's wrong with this little official?"
The dean raised his lips silently: "Perhaps you can go find the people around your little sister and ask them what happened in the City God Temple. You will find the answer."
Li Cheng and Li Ming looked at each other. They seemed to have heard what the clerk had just said about willow branches.
The story of willow branches fighting ghosts is true.
But Junior Sister, you can’t be that tough, right?
Moreover, strictly speaking, although the Yin official is a soul, he belongs to the immortal official. Can he be hit by a willow branch?
"It just so happens that Madam Cen's dowry list and the estate accounts of the Protectorate General's Mansion have all been verified. You can go to the Marquis' Mansion and show the things to your junior sister and ask her to pay attention to them."
As the dean spoke, a wisp of invisible energy attached to Li Ming who was closest to him.
"Master, what about accepting me as a disciple?" Li Ming was not giving up.
Since Junior Sister gave them such a big gift, they also had to do something for her.
"You know we haven't become my disciples yet, yet you're calling me Junior Sister affectionately." The dean glanced at them with a half-smile, "There's no rush to become my disciple. You can go ahead."
Qin Yinyao went to the City God Temple to show off her power, but the City God was not angry at all. Instead, he sent a clerk to deliver gifts, which showed that she had an extraordinary background.
It remains to be seen whether he is qualified to be a master.
And, wait a moment.
at the same time.
Qin Yinyao was carried back to the main courtyard by Hua Niang.
Chun Qi, who was in charge of watching Nanny Qian write her testimony, came forward immediately. Just as he was about to speak, he fell silent when he saw Qin Yinyao's peaceful sleeping face.
He walked quietly in front of Hua Niang and went to the bedroom to make the bed.
During the time Qin Yinyao was away, Chunqi and others had already figured out the whole courtyard.
I originally wanted to ask more about Qin Yinyao's temperament and living habits.
But Dong Ning only knew the dead Qin Yinyao, and knew very little about the current Qin Yinyao.
After much thought, I could only come up with a few points.
I love to sleep and always feel grouchy when I wake up.
Love to eat, but picky about food.
His temper is sometimes good and sometimes bad, and his attitude towards trouble is very clear: at worst, we will die together.
After hearing this, even Chunqi, Xia An and Qiu Sui, who were originally palace maids, fell silent.
This...how can they serve this?
We can only be cautious.
Fortunately, there is one thing: the young lady will not lose her temper, and will not beat, scold or punish the maids and old women at will.
This made everyone feel a little relieved.
As for the secret guards, I'm not worried.
After all, they are secret guards. Even if they are assigned tasks and no longer have to hide in the dark, they should still be guards, guarding the house and the yard, and will not serve in front of the master.
In order to prevent the Marquis from interfering with the money issue, Li Cheng and others went to the East Palace first.
First, all the things were reviewed by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince in the East Palace, and then he and Yingyi returned to the Marquis' Mansion together.
On the way, Li Ming couldn't hold back and asked Ying Yi directly: "Did you go to the City God Temple with Junior Sister this morning? What did you do there?"
Without giving Yingyi time to think, Li Ming spoke first: "Before we came out, we met the clerk from the City God Temple who was delivering messages. That clerk was also strange..."
"I've always heard that Yin officials have green faces and fangs, and are very powerful and terrifying, but I've never heard of them being covered in bruises and purple. Why is that?"
Ying glanced at him and said, "Master Li Ming is quite good at asking questions."
Before asking others something, tell them something you know that they don’t know. This will put them at ease and they will naturally follow your words.
"You will be the one serving our Junior Sister from now on, and we are her senior brothers. In a sense, we are a family."
Li Ming and Ying Yi were good friends. He wanted to put his arm around Ying Yi's shoulders, but he was not tall enough, so he could only barely grab his arm. "We are all family, what secrets do you have to hide between family members? Tell us."
Ying Yi pursed her lips and said, "When we get to the Marquis' Mansion, if the master wants you to know, he will tell you naturally."
Li Ming: "Junior Sister doesn't care about these things, just tell us directly, so that we don't have to wait anxiously."
"I won't say it." Yingyi closed his mouth, refusing to obey.
Li Ming was at a loss, and Li Cheng was also helpless.
Among the five people, Ruochen, who was the most taciturn, took action directly, first setting up a soundproofing array, and then casting a mantra.
When the soundproofing array was deployed, Ying Yi felt something was wrong and wanted to hide, but was hugged by Li Ming and another sorcerer Yuan Feng on his left and right arms.
He failed to break free instantly and was attacked the next moment.
He recounted in detail all of Qin Yinyao's actions in the City God Temple.
Li Ming grimaced. "He just broke the willow branch like that?! Hiss...it hurts just hearing it."
[You should definitely try it.] A sinister voice echoed through the soundproofing array.
The six people felt their scalps tingling.
Li Cheng was his senior brother after all, so he bowed respectfully and said, "I don't know which immortal official this is. I'm sorry for the insolence. I hope the immortal official will forgive me."
[Hmph.] A sinister voice snorted coldly: [Don't mention it again.]
