All Heavens: From Joy of Life to The Great Feng Night Watchman

"Stop shouting, it's just acupressure with internal energy."

The Six Meridian Divine Sword requires superb finger techniques as a foundation, and remote acupoint striking with true qi is Li Chang'an's specialty.

Li Chang'an threw Wang Qinian into the courtyard, making him watch as the bandits were killed and captured.

Within a quarter of an hour of these people entering the mansion, half of them had been killed.

Li Chang'an ordered the Shadow Guards, "Interrogate the living tonight, and hand over the dead to the Kyoto Prefecture."

Seeing Li Chang'an's Shadow Guards kill without blinking an eye, Wang Qinian was so frightened that he fell silent and trembled all over!

Afterwards, Li Chang'an carried Wang Qinian into the Shadow Guard's secret chamber.

Wang Qinian knelt on the ground and saw the various torture instruments on the surrounding walls; he was so frightened he almost wet himself.

Behind Li Chang'an were two stunningly beautiful maids, but Wang Qinian had just seen them; these two were highly skilled in swordsmanship and were eighth-rank masters!

There was also a middle-aged man, with a fair complexion, no beard, and a cold expression; he was at least at the ninth rank of cultivation!

This is terrifying! We've entered a den of dragons and tigers!

Wang Qinian suddenly burst into tears, sobbing and lamenting, his voice choked with sobs!

"Your Highness! I am morally deficient and have a guilty conscience! I should not have stolen Your Highness's things!"

He had no time to worry about how Li Chang'an recognized him and directly admitted his identity.

"However, even thieves have their code of honor; they never bully the weak, and they only steal when they have no other choice!"

“Wang’s family has suffered a terrible tragedy. His wife has long since passed away, leaving behind a daughter and me to depend on each other for survival!”

"But! But... my daughter is so unlucky, she has been diagnosed with a terminal illness!"

"Waaah... I've tried countless expensive medicines, but it's all in vain!"

Wang Qinian burst into tears, his expression perfectly conveying the character's emotions; he truly lived up to his sixth-rank acting ability.

His wailing was truly moving: "Your Highness Prince Yong! I am suffering!"

"A rope always breaks at its thinnest point, and misfortune only finds those who are unfortunate! Just a few days ago, my daughter also passed away!"

"Wang spent all his money on treating his wife and daughter's illnesses, but he still couldn't afford to bury his youngest daughter!"

"Even so, Wang should not have stolen the prince's calligraphy and paintings!"

"I am terrified! I am ashamed!"

Out of the corner of his eye, Wang Qinian noticed that the two maids seemed to be subtly moved.

Sure enough, Xiren was heartbroken upon hearing this and couldn't help wiping away her tears.

Wang Qinian felt much relieved; someone had softened their heart!

Li Chang'an smiled instead, "Xi Ren, doesn't that sound pitiful?"

Xi Ren answered crisply, "Although I know he's talking nonsense, his emotions are spot on, reminding me of my childhood."

Qingwen also said, "This person is a liar, but his acting skills are not bad."

Wang Qinian's tears stopped instantly; it turned out that no one believed his performance at all!

Then who is he putting on this show for? What kind of people are around Prince Yong?

Li Chang'an hesitated for a moment, then slowly looked at Wang Qinian and asked, "Wang Qinian, is your daughter named Baba?"

Wang Qinian was stunned for a moment, then his face was filled with a chrysanthemum-like smile.

"Call!"

"Of course I'll call!"

"Your Highness is joking!"

"Of course my daughter calls me Dad! She can't call someone else Dad!"

Chapter 30 Wang Qinian castrated? One map costs one hundred taels of silver!

Li Chang'an understood that Wang Qinian did not yet have a daughter, and then he ordered Zhao Gao to search Wang Qinian's body.

Zhao Gao worked swiftly and efficiently, finding all the loose papers and silver notes on Wang Qinian's body.

After searching, Zhao Gao looked at Wang Qinian with a greedy expression.

That gaze made Wang Qinian's chrysanthemum tingle!

Zhao Gao cupped his hands to Li Chang'an and said, "Your Highness, this man has exceptional talent and is extremely skilled at disguise and acting. It would be better to leave him to this old servant to deal with."

Upon hearing Zhao Gao's words, Wang Qinian felt as if he had been granted a pardon!

Wang Qi was exceptionally skilled in martial arts at a young age, and important figures should all like him and wouldn't kill him easily.

He quickly kowtowed and said, "Your Highness Prince Yong is renowned throughout the land for your talent. I am willing to serve you with utmost loyalty and devotion!"

Li Chang'an noticed that Wang Qinian's emotional value had risen to 30, which seemed to indicate that he was considering defecting.

Zhao Gao said with satisfaction, "Your Highness, this person is quite clever. The more I look at him, the more I like him."

Upon hearing Zhao Gao's words, Wang Qi was filled with confidence, his smile was radiant, and his face was full of piety.

But upon hearing the second half of the sentence, Wang Qinian's expression changed drastically, and he felt as if his soul had left his body!

"After this old servant has cleansed him, properly trained and instructed him, he will remain to serve the Prince!"

Wang Qinian cried out, "Your Highness! I am not yet married and cannot be castrated!"

Wang Qinian has not yet met a woman as formidable as Lady Wang, so of course he doesn't want to be castrated.

"Your Highness, before I met you, I was considered the best in lightness skill among Grandmasters!"

"Only Zong Zhui from the Surveillance Bureau can keep up with me, but his lightness skill is still a little bit inferior to mine!"

"Not only is Wang skilled in light-footed martial arts, but he is also adept at tracking and tracing. Your Highness will surely find him useful!"

Zhao Gao became increasingly excited as he listened. "Your Highness, this man is of great use to us. We must not let him go. Let this old servant castrate him and keep him for our service!"

This is not Zhao Gao's fault, as the other four of the Six Sword Slaves were all eunuchs.

In his view, only beautiful women and eunuchs were suitable to follow their master.

Wang Qinian was already drenched in sweat. If he was of great use, why not keep him? Why did he have to be castrated?

Li Chang'an remained calm and said, "You're also skilled in tracking. I wonder if you have any other abilities?"

Zhao Gao unintentionally put immense pressure on Wang Qinian. When Li Chang'an asked him this question, Wang Qinian's emotional value rose to 50!

“Your Highness! I am skilled in geomancy, surveying terrain and drawing maps are my strengths!”

Li Chang'an said, "Qingwen, take a look at his map!"

Qingwen pulled out a stack of maps from the ground; they were all exactly the same.

However, Qingwen only glanced at it before revealing a look of utter disgust.

"Your Highness, this man is bragging!"

Then he presented the map to Li Chang'an.

This abstract style and simple aesthetic are indeed the work of Wang Qinian.

Upon hearing this, Wang Qinian, who was kneeling on the ground, immediately shouted, "Your Highness! It's not that one! That's the one I use to earn some pocket money!"

"I plan to sell these maps for two taels of silver each to the sons of noble families who are newly arriving in the capital!"

"There are many cunning people in Kyoto, and I am helping them grow in strength quickly!"

"The geomantic map of the world drawn by Wang is that big one!"

Wang Qinian's geomancy skills were indeed strong, but his drawing skills were only so-so.

Or rather, the maps he drew were only understandable to himself.

Li Chang'an had also seen the geomantic map of the world that Wang Qinian mentioned, but he didn't hold out much hope for it.

However, after Qingwen removed the painting, her expression became serious.

"Your Highness, this map isn't bad."

Li Chang'an curiously took the map and then realized that Wang Qinian was actually quite good at drawing.

The map has clear boundary markings and is appropriately scaled, indicating that Wang Qinian has been to quite a few places.

Zhao Gao glanced at the map, his gaze toward Wang Qinian burning even brighter!

"Wang Qinian, a talent like you is simply too rare!"

Li Chang'an asked with a smile, "How much is this map?"

Wang Qinian felt uneasy under Zhao Gao's gaze. "Your Highness, it sells for a hundred taels of silver to others, but of course I can give you a discount..."

Upon hearing this, Qingwen's pretty face immediately turned frosty. "Your Highness, I'll break his dog legs!"

Upon hearing this, Wang Qinian immediately changed his tune, "No, no, no, this painting is presented to Your Highness! I am willing to do so!"

Li Chang'an slowly said, "Wang Qinian doesn't have to be castrated; he can stay in the outer residence to serve you."

Upon hearing Li Chang'an's words, Wang Qinian's emotional value rose to 70!
