Film and Television: The Great Feng Sword Immortal, starting with Lingyue's updo hairstyle

Li Miaozhen had naturally heard of the name of the banished immortal!

What utter nonsense about being a banished immortal... Even we, the Heavenly Sect, dare not call ourselves immortals.

Isn't he just a lecherous scoundrel who spends all his time in the brothel?

He does have a handsome appearance, but he looks quite weak. I reckon his body has long been hollowed out by wine and women.

I've heard that this man has two great loves in life: fine wine and beautiful women.

Hmph, so what if you're lustful? Why do you have to say it so openly and righteously?

It's just that it didn't fall into my hands, otherwise I would have squeezed it dry long ago.

Oh no, he meant to let his underlings drain him dry.

However... Li Miaozhen had some doubts.

According to the information she received, this person seems to be only 893, and is the 9644 in the team who is in charge of investigating the case.

This person seems to have done something remarkable in Kyoto.

She doesn't know the details yet, but she'll have to ask about this immortal in the group later.

……

The atmosphere at the dinner was fairly harmonious, and it gradually came to an end.

Just then, the servants brought out plates of dark-colored loquats, plump and large.

"Your Excellency, please try this. Our loquats from Yunzhou are truly exceptional. They ripen in late spring and early summer, and you can't find such refreshing loquats in the capital."

"After the loquats ripened, they were kept in the freezer. Every ten days, we would pick out the spoiled ones. Now, there are hardly any left."

Song Changfu enthusiastically grabbed a few and placed them in front of Governor Zhang.

Governor Zhang didn't stand on ceremony and immediately ate one.

He immediately widened his eyes in surprise: "It has no kernel?"

The provincial governor smiled without saying a word, and the other officials also laughed.

Governor Zhang was quite surprised, as this was the first time he had ever eaten a seedless loquat.

The experience was absolutely fantastic.

Governor Zhang said incredulously, "There are actually seedless loquats in the world! How wonderful, how wonderful!"

"Is this seedless loquat a special variety from Yunzhou? I've never heard of it before?"

Song Changfu smiled and said mysteriously, "No."

"It is only because the loquat tree was blessed by the incense of the Baidi Temple that it produces seedless loquats."

The officials from Yunzhou around them also chimed in.

"Yes, yes, this is an auspicious omen for Yunzhou."

“Yunzhou is a place blessed by nature, enjoying favorable weather and abundant harvests thanks to the protection of the White Emperor.”

The officials immediately began to praise Yunzhou, describing it as an auspicious place.

Su Nan just found it funny.

If Yunzhou is truly an auspicious land, how did it become a bandit state?

Governor Zhang fell into deep thought; he had grasped the meaning.

But he couldn't figure out the mystery behind loquats being seedless, so he didn't dare to speak recklessly.

Su Nan picked up a loquat and popped it into her mouth.

"What does Su Zhexian think?"

Song Changfu then looked at Su Nan with a smile.

Su Nan originally did not want to get involved in these official matters, but Song Changfu insisted on provoking him.

Do you really think I don't know? It was you, you old bastard, who was behind all this trouble in Yunzhou.

So he laughed and said, "Lord Song, you are mistaken."

Immediately, everyone around looked at Su Nan.

Li Miaozhen also looked at Su Nan with great curiosity.

She knew the reason why loquats were seedless, but she couldn't say it at the moment.

Song Changfu was somewhat surprised by Su Nan's attitude, so he asked, "What advice does the Immortal Su have for me?"

"Could it be that my Yunzhou is not an auspicious land?"

Su Nan picked up a loquat, played with it for a moment, but did not eat it.

"Yunzhou is indeed an auspicious place, but in recent years it has been turned into a mess by mountain bandits, and is jokingly called Bandit Prefecture by the people of the world."

"Just like this seedless loquat, the principle is actually very simple."

"Simply pluck the central stamen of the loquat flower during its flowering season, and the resulting loquat will be seedless."

"Yunzhou, oh Yunzhou, is it like this loquat?"

The room fell silent. The Yunzhou officials around them stared at Su Nan with stiff expressions.

The expression on Song's face suddenly froze!

There was a long silence at the banquet.

In this era, the method of producing seedless loquats can definitely be called a secret technique.

However, this is not a problem for southern Jiangsu.

However, this incident was a huge shock to the officials of Yunzhou who were in the surrounding area!

The room fell silent for a moment.

Su Nan's words caught the officials completely off guard and left them in disbelief.

You know, when they first learned about the method for removing the pits from loquats, they were absolutely amazed.

Such a top-secret technology was revealed by Su Nan in a single sentence.

This made the atmosphere at the scene somewhat awkward...

The previous claims about the White Emperor's incense offerings and auspicious lands felt like a slap in the face to everyone.

Li Miaozhen opened her beautiful eyes wide and re-examined Su Nan.

This frivolous man from the brothel was quite capable, as he was able to reveal the secret of seedless loquats.

It seems I underestimated him.

"Ha, he's hoisted himself by his own petard." Li Miaozhen sneered gloatingly, delighted to see Governor Song suffer a setback.

Even with Song Changfu's masterful political skills, the shame in his heart still surged endlessly.

His previous eloquent claims, about the White Emperor's protection and the influence of incense, were brutally exposed in front of everyone.

Governor Zhang was overjoyed.

Fortunately, I brought Su Nan to the banquet this time, otherwise it would have been really difficult to resolve the current situation.

Governor Zhang looked at Song Changfu and smiled, "Provincial Treasurer Song, you may not know this."

Requesting flowers...0

"Su Shi was not only a poet with amazing talent, but also an expert in alchemy."

"He often went to the Observatory to give lectures, and the astronomers of the Imperial Observatory treated him with the respect due to a half-master."

"..."

Upon hearing this, the shock on everyone's faces deepened!

Even the arrogant astronomers of the Imperial Observatory had to take Su Nan as their teacher!

No wonder he was able to reveal the secret of seedless loquat.

After a long while, Song Changfu finally recovered and his complexion returned to normal.

"No wonder he was hailed as a banished immortal by the world."

"I have learned a lot from you today."

"To witness such a celestial being's beauty has added even more splendor to tonight's banquet!"

An awkward situation was abruptly resolved by Governor Song, who began to introduce the local customs and culture of Yunzhou.

They never mentioned loquats.

This proves that he still cares a lot about it.

The banquet then quickly came to an end.

Many Yunzhou officials, slightly tipsy, rode away in their carriages and returned to their residences.

This kind of elegant dinner party won't involve any overly extravagant or decadent behavior.

Upon leaving the mansion, Governor Zhang and the officials bowed to each other in farewell outside the mansion.

Then they got into the carriage and drove away.

Inside the carriage, Governor Zhang laughed loudly, "If it weren't for Su Zhexian today, I really wouldn't know how to respond to Song Changfu and the others."

Su Nan smiled but didn't say anything.

Seeing that Su Nan had no intention of discussing this matter, Governor Zhang changed the subject.

"Today's banquet was very fruitful."

Governor Zhang glanced back at the now-obscured mansion and said in a deep voice, "Yunzhou should be led by Provincial Governor Song, as he is at odds with Yang Chuannan."

Su Nan didn't pay much attention to that, but he nodded nonetheless.

"I remember that among the three offices in each prefecture, the Regional Commander's Office should be the head."

Although Su Nan was unfamiliar with many aspects of officialdom, he still possessed this basic common sense.

Governor Zhang nodded and said, "That's right."
