Ninth Grade Jailer: He actually went on a blind date with the leader of the Demon Cult at the beginning Chapter 360 Encountering Jiang Qiuyue at Longmen Inn
Chapter 360 Encountering Jiang Qiuyue at Longmen Inn
Half an hour later.
Wang Liu, who had gone to the government office to pay his respects, returned to the inn with a strange look on his face.
"What, if I ask you to send me a greeting card, what will happen?"
Li Nuo glanced at Wang Liuzi, a little curious.
"Sir, your invitation has been handed over to the prefect, but..."
Wang Liuzi was hesitant and found it difficult to speak.
Li Nuo asked: "Did the prefect make things difficult for you? That shouldn't be the case. People in the officialdom are all human beings. How could you directly offend me, the imperial envoy, openly?"
"The magistrate actually met the young one in person. After reading the invitation from the Lord, he said to himself..."
"What did you say?"
"He said...this little bastard is actually an imperial envoy. Is God blind?"
Wang Liuzi also went all out and imitated the tone and movements of the prefect at that time perfectly.
This made Li Nuo very confused.
To belittle him in such a casual tone is obvious that he is either an enemy with a deep hatred or an old acquaintance.
Li Nuo immediately asked: "Who is the prefect of Guangling Prefecture?"
Wang Liuzi: "Master Chen Yuyan."
Li Nuo was slightly surprised.
How could it be him?
When I met Qin Beitian in Xiangyang before, I heard him mention that Chen Yuyan was transferred to Jiaxing Prefecture in Jiangnan Province as the prefect, so why did he come to Lingnan?
Seeing Li Nuo's confusion, Wang Liuzi explained: "The former prefect of Guangling retired and returned to his hometown. This prefect Chen was newly appointed a month ago..."
I see.
But this old Chen is too miserable. The magistrate's term is three years, and usually he is re-elected for six years.
Although being the prefect of Guangling County can be regarded as a promotion by half a level, because Guangling is the administrative seat of Lingnan Road. But how can a remote and remote place like Lingnan be compared with the misty Jiangnan?
He was clearly promoted openly and demoted secretly.
"Chen Yuyan, we are an old acquaintance. If it were him..."
Li Nuo thought for a moment and suddenly had a brilliant idea in his mind.
He quickly set his sights on Mahan.
The four little minions under him each have their own merits.
Wang Liuer of the Dynasty was so thin that he was nicknamed "Skinny Monkey";
Zhang Long is tall and thin, and is known as "Zhugan'er";
Zhao Hu has short legs and was awarded the title of "Dwarf Tiger";
Only this Mahan had a normal body shape, similar to him, and a decent appearance, but he was the least timid.
Ma Han felt terrified when Li Nuo saw him: "Sir, what are your orders?"
Li Nuo walked around Mahan three more times, and the more he looked at him, the more satisfied he became.
However, Ma Han felt cold in his heart at this time and his whole body was stiff. He said with a sad face: "Sir, my lord... did you do something wrong somewhere?"
Li Nuo patted Mahan on the shoulder and laughed: "Haha, you are very good! I have a very important thing that needs someone to complete..."
Ma Han felt excited all over: "I will do whatever it takes to work for you, through fire and water."
Li Nuo nodded: "Okay! If you are determined, then this task will be entrusted to you. Chao Chao, Zhang Long, Zhao Hu, you three must cooperate well with Ma Han."
"I obey my orders!"
The three of them clasped their fists together.
Mahan stiffened up and said as if he was looking forward to death: "Sir, I don't know what you want me to do with you?"
Li Nuo smiled and said: "Relax, I'm not asking you to break into the dragon's pond and the tiger's den."
"That is……"
"Be an imperial envoy!"
"ah?"
…
The next day.
Outside Guangling City.
Chen Yuyan, who was wearing a crimson official robe and embroidered with clouds and wild geese, had been waiting in front of the city gate for a long time with all the officials from Guangling County.
It won't take a while.
A procession carrying an imperial guard of honor marched slowly under the morning glow in the east.
Chen Yuyan's mood was slightly complicated.
Meeting an old friend in a foreign country is a good thing as long as you are not a creditor.
But in this situation, he really didn't want to see his former friends.
After he was originally transferred from Yuzhou through connections, he went to Jiaxing Prefecture to serve as the magistrate. However, within a few months, he received an order from the court to take up the post in Guangling County, Lingnan Road.
But there was nothing he could do.
Who asked his mentor to beg for his bones?
Well, his mentor was Zhong Beishan, the former minister of Honglu Temple. In order to prevent others from using him as a censor and using him as a stepping stone, he directly retreated to advance, retired and returned to his hometown, which saved his old age.
But his retirement caused great harm to Chen Yuyan.
Yushitai failed to overthrow Zhong Beishan, and even suffered a defeat. Naturally, he had to take it out on his favorite disciple Chen Yuyan...
Chen Yuyan also didn't expect that he would have to meet Li Zian just one month after taking office.
I think at the beginning, Li Zian was just a small jailer, but in less than half a year, he had risen to the top and became an imperial envoy, and he could sit on an equal footing with him.
To be honest, I have been reading books recently to catch up on updates, switch sources, read aloud with many sounds, and it can be used on both Android and Apple.]
"Welcome to the Imperial Envoy..."
Chen Yuyan cupped his hands and said.
Although I feel very uncomfortable in my heart, I still have to do this superficial work in public.
However, there was no sound from the imperial envoy's carriage, which almost made Chen Yuyan unable to get off the stage.
how?
After becoming an imperial envoy, you are so crazy that you don't even take him seriously?
Wang Liuzi, however, was very discerning. He immediately stepped forward and said, "Mr. Chen, my imperial envoy has traveled all the way and even contracted the wind and cold. It's really inconvenient to talk. Why don't we go to the city first?"
"Forget it, let's go to the city. Later, I will find a doctor for our imperial envoy to take a good look at him."
Chen Yuyan smiled coldly and glanced at the carriage.
Tired of traveling and traveling, are you infected with wind and cold?
I bother!
With your boy's warrior physique, which is stronger than a bull, Fenghan would be so scared that he would retreat when he saw you, right?
A group of people returned to the city in great force.
Entered the government office.
The imperial envoy finally came out after being called out for a long time, and was welcomed into the back hall of the government office by everyone.
"Is this the imperial envoy sent by His Majesty?"
"Hush, please speak softly...this imperial envoy and His Majesty are close friends of life and death!"
"Everyone, please be careful. The imperial envoy is inspecting Lingnan. We can't expose our mistakes. We must feed him."
"I don't care about this imperial envoy. Lingnan is an iron bucket. He can't make any waves. When the time is up, he will naturally just slap his ass and leave. On the other hand, the new magistrate Chen will at least stay in Lingnan.
It was the last three years."

…
Back hall.
Chen Yuyan looked at the fake Li Nuo in front of him and suddenly asked in a bad temper: "What on earth is Li Zian doing?"
Mahan hurriedly handed over a letter: "Mr. Chen, this is an autographed letter from my lord. Please read it."
Chen Yuyan opened the letter and read it, and then he understood.
The plank road is built openly, but the warehouse is secretly built!
Damn, this guy Li Zian already knew that Lingnan was in trouble.
At this time, Li Nuo had already left Meiguan.
Looking at the endless mountains in front of him, he was slightly in a trance.
This is the Great Wushan that blocks hundreds of thousands of cavalry from the Central Plains!
There is a commercial road to the west of Wushan, and after passing through it is the territory of Western Chu. Going deeper to the south is the territory of the Wu Clan, and going north is the territory of the Daqingshan Monster Clan.
At this time, the sky south of Wushan was covered with a thin layer of mist, which was a highly toxic miasma that could easily corrode the practitioner's Dantian.
It is now mid-September, and it is estimated that these miasma will dissipate in no more than ten days. By then, the Wu Clan will definitely make some big moves!
On the other hand, Xi Chu was still a vassal state of Dayin, and was humble and submissive to Dayin. They even gave away Jiang Qiuyue, a talented and beautiful princess. Therefore, this trade road connects Xi Chu and Meiguan.
, also seems quite prosperous.
On the business road, a large caravan of a hundred people was slowly moving forward.
"Mr. Ren, if you walk along this Tea Horse Road, you have entered the territory of Western Chu. It's not like Dayin, there are many rules. You have to listen more, read more and talk less. Do you understand?"
A bearded man with a knife warned Li Nuo.
If it weren't for the sake of money, he wouldn't have taken such a helpless young master to Xichu. It would have been a disaster.
"As the boss, I understand the rules. I am a transparent person and will never cause trouble. Don't worry."
Li Nuo said with a smile.
The bearded man nodded and went to the front of the team to check.
After resting for a while, the caravan continued on its way, making sure to arrive at the Longmen Inn before sunset, which was also the only inn on the road to Western Chu.
After passing the inn, you have to walk for three days and three nights to pass the most dangerous bone path.
Li Nuo continued to move forward with the large army.
After learning that the prefect of Guangling was Chen Yuyan, he made the decision to let Ma Han pretend to be him and make a high-profile appearance in Guangling County, while he secretly went to Xichu.
The three Luyue brothers and sisters went directly back to Wushan to inquire about the news.
He still doesn’t believe it!
Since Ren Tianxing is not in Lingnan, these are the only two places left.
In short, it is still the same saying, if you want to see people when you are alive, you want to see the corpse when you die.
Sunset.
Finally arriving at Longmen Inn, everyone in the caravan heaved a sigh of relief.
Tonight, everyone will eat meat and drink from big bowls. After all, after tonight, we will have to suffer for three days.
"Shopkeeper, please give me a first-class guest room!"
A woman's voice sounded from outside the inn.
When the sound comes, people arrive.
A red and fiery voice flashed in and slapped a piece of silver on the counter.
When everyone saw it, they quickly lowered their heads.
This tigress cannot afford to be offended.
She is a very famous monster hunter in this area!
What is a demon hunter?
The demons in Daqingshan will not always stay in Daqingshan to practice. They will often come to Wushan to break out and fight.
There are quite a few people in the world who have been eaten by them.
Eight years ago, the husband of the woman in red in front of her was eaten by a tiger monster. Since then, the woman has picked up the knife left by her husband and embarked on a path of no return - the road of hunting monsters.
!
When Li Nuo saw this woman's face, there was a hint of strangeness in the corner of his mouth.
Is this really a coincidence?
Even though the woman is a widow!
but……
At the beginning, his senior brother Ren Tianxing told him that he was pursuing a woman.
This is the woman in front of me - the demon hunter, the red lady!
Of course, Ren Tianxing has been guarding Meiguan for ten years. As long as five more years pass, he can request to be transferred back on the grounds that his term of office has expired.
He said that he would marry this woman when the time comes.
When Li Nuo originally exchanged letters with Ren Tianxing, he also sent his blessings.
I really didn’t expect that I would meet my sister-in-law who has not yet married here!
But the red lady doesn't seem to have any sadness?
Did she abandon Ren Tianxing?
Otherwise, if Ren Tianxing disappeared and she didn't look for him, how could she still have the leisure and grace to continue hunting the demon clan?
"Ms. Red, what a coincidence. There are a lot of people today, and all the superior guest rooms are already full. How about you beg your pardon and stay in room C?"
There was a "bang" sound.
The woman slapped her two knives on the table, stood on her head with her eyebrows, and said angrily: "Forget it in normal times, I have some distinguished guests here today. Do you want me to stay in room C?"
Outside the door, a veiled woman stood leaning on the railing.
She wore a tight-fitting green-gray robe, which outlined her graceful and exquisite figure. Her neck and wrists were as skin-like as gelatin.
Even though she was covered by a veil, everyone knew that she was definitely a first-rate beauty.
Li Nuo was surprised again.
This figure, this aura...he is clearly an old acquaintance!
Princess Jiang Qiuyue of Western Chu!
Moreover, he is still the real person, not the foxy one who disguises himself.
It's just that this majestic princess of Xichu didn't make plans in Xichu, so why did she come out again?
The shopkeeper said helplessly: "Madam, there is nothing I can do. Why don't you discuss it with the young man and give you a room?"
The old shopkeeper pointed at Li Nuo.
There is no other way. The other people who have requested the Tianzihao rooms are all regular customers of the business firm. If you look up and don't look down, you can't betray them, right?
Here, there is only a strange pretty boy called Li Nuo. If he is not bullied, who will he bully?
The red lady looked at Li Nuo, her eyes suddenly lit up.
Such a handsome little brother.
After all, the people present were either rough warriors or fat-bellied business owners.
Although Li Nuo is also a martial artist, his foundation as a Confucian scholar is still there, so he naturally stands out from the crowd. Otherwise, how could Ye Qingyu marry him?
The matchmaker stepped forward, cupped her hands and said, "Sir, I've covered all your expenses. How about you changing to another room?"
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! The words may seem polite, but if you look carefully, they are very powerful!
Li Nuo smiled and said, "Okay."
The red lady originally wanted to waste more time and draw more blood, but she was surprised that the other party was so straightforward.
"Thank you very much, sir. May I ask what you call me?"
The red lady looked at Li Nuo and asked.
Li Nuo apologized and said, "I'll do it next time."
Red Lady: "Mr. Ren's name... is really interesting."
Li Nuo raised his eyebrows: "Oh, really?"
After the red lady thanked her again, she went over to negotiate with the shopkeeper.
Li Nuo didn't care and continued to eat peanuts and drink some wine.
———
That night.
The moon is dark and the wind is high, it is a murderous night!
Li Nuo, who was lying on the bed, quietly opened his eyes.
There was a dagger hanging across his neck, and he was feeling chilly.
"I ask, you answer."
The woman whispered.
Li Nuo said with an innocent face: "Xia Xia, please spare your life. I gave you my room in Tianzihao. How can you repay kindness and revenge?"
The red lady said coldly: "Humph, don't think that I don't know! I'm free to do whatever bullshit you want, your name is definitely fake."
Li Nuonu pointed at the baggage: "My parents gave me my name. Is this wrong? If you don't believe me, look at my guide."
The red lady opened the baggage and found a road guide. She opened it and saw that it was stamped with the seal of Meiguan. It was indeed a fake!
Since Li Nuo was going to inspect Lingnan, he naturally made complete preparations and had seven or eight backup identities.
"Li Xunhuan" is aimed at Jianghu.
The name "Ren Wo Xing" was used to test people related to Ren Tianxing.
Although the red lady still had doubts, she put away the dagger and asked: "You are a young man from an aristocratic family, what are you doing in Xichu?"
Li Nuo lamented with a frown on his face: "Alas, the heroine doesn't know something. I have a private life-long relationship with a woman from Xichu, but in the end she couldn't bear the pressure of the world and left me. I came to Xichu just to let her know that I
I really love her."
The red lady snorted: "You are infatuated. What's that woman's name?"
Li Nuo said lonely: "I found out later that her name was also fake, but her surname Jiang is real."
etc.
Your surname is Jiang?
Wouldn't it be better to ask that noble man to find out?
Seeing that Li Nuo's expression was not fake, or maybe it was the name, the red lady also felt good about him.
This is just a small favor, just help me.
"You're lucky, the nobleman who came with me is also named Jiang, so he might know something about it. Just wait, I'll go ask for you."
The red lady left in a hurry.
A smile appeared on Li Nuo's lips.
Jiang Qiuyue, Jiang Qiuyue, let’s see how long you can hide!
