My enemies became my companions

Chapter 18 Cangshan Fist

Chen Yi got up early and saw Yin Tingxue still sleeping soundly.

He stood up, put the clothes that Yin Tingxue was going to change at the end of the bed, and then went to wash up. After that, he set off for the West Factory.

As soon as he entered the door, Chen Yi saw the familiar Captain Zeng trotting towards him.

"Captain Chen, the governor is looking for you."

Chen Yi frowned slightly.

Could it be that...something went wrong?

After all, his own manipulations were behind the falling out between the East Factory and the Demon Cult, so Chen Yi couldn't help but feel suspicious.

But after thinking about it, Chen Yi slowly walked up the stairs.

If there really was a mistake somewhere, I would have captured him directly as soon as I stepped through the door, without having to go around in circles and go through so much trouble.

When he arrived at the reception hall, Chen Yi saw a familiar figure.

The second son of the Lin family, Lin Yan, saw Chen Yi and just nodded without standing up.

"I've met Mr. Lin."

Chen Yi remained calm and said with a fist:

"May I ask what the Governor wants from me?"

Wu Qingsheng didn't say anything more and said directly:
"It's not just me who has something to ask you, Second Master Lin also has something to ask you, and it's the same thing."

Chen Yi narrowed his eyes.

When he first arrived in the capital, he joined Elder Lin in order to maximize his benefits.

Who is Lin Ge Lao? He passed the imperial examination in the second year of Qingchu and entered the Hanlin Academy as an editor. Later, he became the director of the Imperial College. With the grace of the late emperor, he entered the Ministry of Revenue as a minister. After that, his career was prosperous and he climbed up the career ladder step by step. He was promoted to the Minister of Personnel. Six years before the death of the late emperor, he entered the cabinet and was appointed as a university scholar. Now the empress dowager is in power and he is the chief minister of the cabinet.

In "Heaven Beyond Heaven", Prime Minister Lin is known as the old turtle who cultivates immortality because of his shrewdness and foresight. Since his sixtieth birthday, Prime Minister Lin has been indulging himself in cultivating Taoism and becoming an immortal day and night, and this is known to everyone in the market.

In the capital city of Dayu, no matter how the situation changes, Lord Lin always stands firm like an evergreen tree. However, this evergreen tree continuously absorbs nutrients from Dayu.

The disciples and former officials under Lord Lin are called the Lin Party. They are good at seeking power, accepting bribes, committing corruption, and corrupting the government. The Lin Party is despised by people both in the streets and in the court, but nothing can be done about it.

Who made Lord Lin and his maternal relative An's family relatives? Maternal relatives and powerful officials have joined forces, and there are very few forces in the court that can check and balance them.

"Then, may I ask why Mr. Lin Er came here?"

Chen Yi asked.

"The temporary replacement for the East Factory Supervisor."

Governor Wu said slowly, observing Chen Yi's expression.

After hearing this, Chen Yi immediately realized something.

Although the Lin Party was powerful and there was little power in the court to check and balance them, it was not completely nonexistent.

The empress dowager, who was in charge of the government, was well versed in the art of controlling her ministers. In recent years, the Ding'an Party, which had the support of King Jing, had risen to prominence and was gradually taking away the spoils of the Lin Party.

Everyone in the capital knows that Xue Youge was originally Lin Ge Lao's man, and the East Factory was also classified as part of the Lin Party. But now Xue Youge is dead, the position of the East Factory supervisor is vacant and there is no leader. Although the Lin Party and the Ding'an Party cannot determine the position of the East Factory supervisor, they can rely on winning over the Silijian to engage in open and secret struggles.

In order to seize the initiative, the Lin Party will surely be the first to submit a petition, asking themselves, who belong to the Lin Party, to temporarily take over the position of the supervisor of the East Factory.

If I had not traveled through time before, I would probably have accepted it with pleasure.

Just now…

I want to cut it myself.

I removed my own forest membership.

What Lin Party? I’m not familiar with them.

I don't want to be the first one to be caught.

Although there is a route in "Tian Wai Tian" that relies on studying for imperial examinations and party struggles to become an official, I myself have no interest in party struggles. In addition, the court is treacherous and it is easy to capsize if you are not careful. Therefore, in my two save files, I have never been involved in court struggles.

Every villain has his own path to take. Chen Yi had walked this path before and was finally killed by the Holy Maiden of the Demon Cult who had grown up. This time, even if Yin Tingxue was under his control, Chen Yi did not want to walk this path again.

"Lord Wu, I'm afraid this matter... needs further discussion."

Chen Yi took a deep breath and spoke.

Governor Wu couldn't help but look sideways. Lin Yan smiled with a fake smile and said:
"It seems that the captain has guessed it. No, I should call you a thousand-householder now."

Chen Yi did not deny it.

"Everyone knows that I, like Governor Xue, belong to your Lin Mansion, but... I'm sorry that I can't take on this position."

Wu Qingsheng didn't say anything, as if he was quietly observing Chen Yi's every word and action.

Lin Yan picked up an invitation from the table and said:
"If so, you will displease my father. Here is an invitation. Please come to my house to discuss it."

"Captain Chen, you are the most suitable candidate. Getting promoted and making money is what everyone wants. Many people cannot wait for this opportunity."

"You are well behaved. With you in charge of the East Factory, my father can rest assured and focus on his cultivation."

Chen Yi frowned.

The Lin Party is determined to bind itself more closely to them.

The Lin Party was powerful and relied on Elder Lin, but there was no real evergreen tree in the world. After the prayer temple, once Elder Lin died, the Lin Party naturally scattered.

"I have limited abilities and cannot take on such a big responsibility."

Chen Yi refused again.

Lin Yan's pupils flashed with impatience, and he emphasized his tone:
"Chen Yi, my father has always taken good care of you.

I just don't understand. Why do you keep refusing this opportunity to rise to the top, which is good for my father and good for you? Don't forget, you eat our Lin family's food, use our Lin family's things, so you should think about our Lin family!"

After saying this, Lin Yan put the invitation on the table and did not hand it to Chen Yi personally. He stood up and left.

After Lin Yan left, Wu Qingsheng, who had been watching for a long time, had made up his mind. He picked up the invitation on the table and pressed it in Chen Yi's hand.
"Captain Chen, don't act on impulse.

I know you have been patient for a long time, so why are you unwilling to be patient for a while longer?"

Hearing this, Chen Yi was slightly surprised.

Chen Yi turned around and saw Governor Wu looking at him sincerely.

Could it be that... he had been forbearing all his bad behavior in the first ten hours?

What kind of brain supplement...

Chen Yi secretly complained.

But on the surface, Chen Yi still followed his intention, took the invitation, smiled bitterly and said:

"It seems that there is no escape this time."

Governor Wu sighed inwardly upon seeing this.

Wu Qingsheng turned around and walked to a corner of the wall. He pressed something and a secret compartment slowly opened.

Chen Yi looked over curiously.

Wu Qingsheng pulled out a yellowed book from the secret compartment.

"Captain Chen, take it.

Just consider it as my consolation. "

Governor Wu handed the book to Chen Yi. Chen Yi took a look and saw a line of big characters written on the door: "Cangshan Fist".

Looking at this book of martial arts, even though he had completed it once, Chen Yi was still slightly surprised.

Cangshan Fist... Isn't this one of the two famous fist cultivation techniques in the middle of the game, along with "Tai Shi Fist"? !

It is also one of the indispensable techniques for practicing boxing. In the description of the technique, it was mentioned that the founder of Cangshan Fist once killed a celestial being with his fist.

According to the normal process, the release of this martial arts method will have to wait until the mid-game event "Martial Arts Chaos in the World". At that time, a martial artist who calls himself Xu Deng will appear, and fight his way up from the tenth place on the martial arts list, defeating the sixth and fifth place in a row, and killing the fourth place with a punch, until he challenges Wei Gang, who is second in the world, to a punch, and then stop at the third place on the martial arts list.

In order to obtain this martial arts book, one must help Xu Deng when he is down and out, and save his life three times at the three most critical moments. Only then will the latter generously give him this family boxing method.

Of course, if it's a female account, there's an easier way...

Chen Yi secretly complained.

"Where did this boxing manual come from?"

Chen Yi suppressed his excitement and asked.
