Chapter 764 Yuan Zizhen

"Wake up, wake up."

Fu Qingzhou was sleeping soundly when he was suddenly woken up by someone slapping him on the face.

He opened his eyes blankly, and what came into his sight was Ning Wushu.

"Ah, Sister Wushu."

Fu Qingzhou blinked and looked around, only to find that he had found himself lying in a shaking carriage without knowing when.

"What's the matter?"

He rubbed his eyes and asked, "Has Brother Ji arranged the next game?"

"What's the next one?" Ning Wushu laughed, "We have already entered Luoyi, you should wake up - Yuan Zizhen is here."

"Yuan……"

Hearing this name, Fu Qingzhou suddenly woke up: "He's here!"

"It was you who called him here?" Ning Wushu narrowed his eyes.

Fu Qingzhou sat up with a jerk, and then grimaced in pain from the injuries all over his body.

"Hiss... yes, I shouted."

He covered his wound, forced a smile and said, "Since the masters of the Sword of Courtesy and the Sword of Wisdom are here, the Sword of Benevolence cannot be left behind."

Ning Wushu's eyes flashed with worry: "This Xuanmeng Grand Ceremony will definitely attract Jiang Baichuan... and King Xishuo, Lan Louzhu, and Yuan Zizhen, the three of them are very likely to be on the same front. When they attack from all sides, Qingzhou, are you sure we can withstand it?"

“There is no absolute certainty.”

Fu Qingzhou said in a deep voice: "But I have also made corresponding plans... It's not that I don't want to talk about some of the hidden tricks, but it's really hard to talk about them."

"It doesn't matter. Since you have made a plan, I won't say anything more."

Ning Wushu smiled and said, "But Qingzhou, I know this is the first time you have taken the lead in planning such a large layout. Don't carry it alone. If you need help, you must tell me."

Fu Qingzhou laughed along with him: "Don't worry, Sister Wushu."

As he spoke, he lowered his head and sniffed himself: "Ah, I've been smelling so bad these past few days... It's too late to take a shower. Sister Wushu, please go out and tell her to get a basin of water so I can wipe myself and change clothes. We can do it in the carriage."

"Your injuries..." Ning Wushu looked at the bandages on his body that were oozing with blood.

"Oh, I almost forgot."

Fu Qingzhou slapped his forehead.

The next moment, enormous power suddenly emerged from his body!
The two secrets of Qi Ran and Yi Ran, which had been suppressed for several days, suddenly flowed!
In just a moment, his aura suddenly increased significantly.

"you?"

Ning Wushu was surprised: "Has your cultivation increased again?"

"Not sure, it seems?" Fu Qingzhou scratched his head.

Was it because he had suppressed his cultivation these past few days and cultivated with his own muscles, bones, skin and flesh? This was possible, because his cultivation path was different from that of others. His muscles, bones, skin and flesh were his Dantian. When his body became stronger, it was like expanding his Dantian for others.

Moreover, Master Wu and Elder Yu had given him medicine for several days before...

"Okay, we're almost there. I'll go down first."

Ning Wushu glanced out the window and said, "Take care of yourself. I'll go with you to see Yuan Zizhen later."

……

The carriages that drove into Luoyi from Qingcaoze were divided into two teams on the street. One team went towards the Xuanmeng headquarters, and the other team went towards the Luoyi government office.

Soon, several carriages stopped in front of the government office gate. Several secret envoys from the Mingjian Pavilion jumped out of the carriages and gathered swiftly in front of the carriage in the center.

The curtain was lifted, and Fu Qingzhou, dressed in military uniform, jumped off the carriage with a long sword in his hand, a De sword on his waist, and a thick Mingjian Zhishi badge hanging on his belt.

A secret messenger followed behind him, holding the long bow for him.

He was wearing an exquisite and gorgeous Mingjian Pavilion military uniform, with black and gold embroidery edges that showed his noble and powerful aura. His wide cape fluttered in the wind, making him look domineering. Although his injuries had been healed, the faint bloody smell had not dissipated, instead adding a bit of murderous aura to him.

"that……"

Fu Qingzhou turned his head and glanced at Ning Wushu who was approaching him, and said helplessly: "Is it necessary to do this?"

"Yuan Zizhen chose to meet you in the government office, which means he wants to meet you in his official capacity."

Ning Wushu had also changed into a suit of armor and a red robe, showing off his heroic spirit. He smiled and said, "You have two official positions, one is the special envoy of Mingjian Pavilion, and the other is Qianlong Earl. However, the earl is far from enough in front of him. Only the special envoy of Mingjian Pavilion is enough."

"alright."

Fu Qingzhou let out a long breath: "Let's go!"

The bailiffs of the government office had already lined up when they saw the team of carriages, and were waiting nervously. When Fu Qingzhou led a group of secret messengers and strode towards the yamen, they hurriedly straightened their chests.

"Welcome to Master Fu, the special envoy of Mingjian Pavilion!"

A group of yamen runners shouted in a deep voice.

Fu Qingzhou was startled, but he hid it well and his face remained stern, like a shrewd and cunning boss.

Imagine what Li Jingzhe looks like... Imagine what Li Jingzhe looks like...

He kept repeating it in his mind.

So, with a stern face and an ambiguous smile on his lips, he strode into the government office.

From the moment Fu Qingzhou entered the government office, two yamen runners carefully led the way in front of him, and a swift yamen runner strode into the inner hall.

Not long after, everyone heard a loud announcement.

"Mingjian Pavilion's special envoy, Master Fu has arrived!"

The sound came at just the right moment. The moment the sound fell, Fu Qingzhou, led by the escort, turned the corner of the corridor and walked into the inner hall.

In the inner hall, three people who were sitting and chatting stood up and looked over here.

One of them was Wen Renjun, and Fu Qingzhou also knew the other one, who was Ning Wuwang.

Yes... I said before that he would also come to Luoyi.

Brother Ning Wushu was also injured by Jiang Baichuan not long ago. He now looks a little pale and it is estimated that his body has not fully recovered yet.

And the third one must be Yuan Zizhen.

At just one glance, Fu Qingzhou formed his first impression - this was a typical civil servant and a high-ranking official.

Yuan Zizheng was wearing a dark blue official robe with exquisite golden cloud and water patterns embroidered on it.

He was a bit plump yet dignified, in his forties or fifties, with a kind face and a gentle and elegant temperament that seemed to be able to soothe the restlessness and anxiety in people's hearts.

His eyes were gentle and deep, as if he could see into people's hearts. There was a faint smile on the corners of his mouth, giving people a feeling like a spring breeze.

Although he is the governor of a province and holds great power, this official does not have the slightest arrogance or airs. Instead, he gives people an approachable feeling.

"Ning Baimei said that Yuan Zizhen has always been known for his kindness."

A tiny thought flashed through Fu Qingzhou's mind: "Now that I see him, he actually smells very similar to Yan Yidong?"

No matter what he was thinking, he strode forward, laughed, and raised his hands to salute.

As the host here, Prefect Wen also narrowed his eyes with a smile and prepared to start the introduction.

The brother and sister Ning Wuwang and Ning Wushu just exchanged glances, and there was no further communication.

"Master Fu, please come in——"

Prefect Wen spoke first, tactfully: "This is Mr. Yuan, the governor of Fuhe Province! Mr. Yuan, this person is of course Mr. Fu whom we were just talking about..."

No matter how much information a conversation contains, it always starts with some boring small talk.
