Chang Gui still looked at Chu Li with a smile: "Sweeping a street is not difficult, right?"
Chu Li cupped his fists and said, "Yes."
Chang Gui stared at him, as if he wanted to see through every trace of his expression, and finally shook his head with some disappointment: "Well, I just came here today, take a rest first, don't fall ill and stay in bed, let's start tomorrow, come over after breakfast tomorrow
At midnight, someone will take you."
"Yes." Chu Li smiled and asked slowly: "I wonder which one of the relatives of Lord City Shou is the most cherished?"
This question was abrupt and strange, and Chang Gui frowned at him.
Chu Li shook his head and said, "Then I can find a place to live by myself?"
"You can live wherever you want, as long as you don't delay your errand." Chang Gui waved his hands with an impatient expression.
Chu Li clasped his fists: "Farewell."
The four of them exited the city guard's mansion, all looking ugly.
As a street sweeper, you can tell at a glance that he is showing off his power.
His dignified first-class bodyguard came to sweep the streets, which was simply an insult to him. The city guard looked at him smiling, but full of hostility.
Lu Yurong suddenly smiled: "Sweeping the streets, this is a good job. I want to follow you around tomorrow and go back to learn from everyone in Shendu and help you make a name for yourself!"
Xiao Qi looked at her dissatisfied.
Lu Yurong smiled and said: "Chu Li, why don't you refuse this mission?"
"If you refuse, there is a better job waiting for me." Chu Li said lightly: "Transporting feces."
"This one is more vicious!" Lu Yurong praised.
Fa Yuan said: "Brother Chu recognizes you like this?"
Chu Li had been deep in thought, and now he smiled: "He is a local snake... Of course I won't sweep the streets!"
"Then what should we do?" Fa Yuan said: "He has a high position of authority, so he can only obey and cannot disobey!"
The city guard is the highest official in the city and is directly responsible to the court. Chu Li is now assigned to the imperial mausoleum. If he disobeys the city guard and submits a letter, the emperor will be furious and impose a heavier punishment.
Not only will you not be able to go back, your situation will be even worse.
Now that he has lost his martial arts, he is just waiting for the emperor to be kind and return him to the capital of the gods, and then he can quickly resume his martial arts. All he is waiting for is a word from the emperor.
Chu Li smiled: "Everyone has weaknesses."
Fa Yuan looked at him doubtfully.
Xiao Qi said: "I will buy a house first and settle down properly."
Chu Li shook his head: "No rush, just stay at the inn first."
They quickly found an inn in the city and asked for a small courtyard. Neither Fa Yuan nor Lu Yurong had any intention of leaving.
Chu Li ordered a banquet and sat in a small pavilion in the courtyard to drink and eat.
Lu Yurong ate a few mouthfuls of food, took two sips of wine, and said with a smile: "That's all, I'll go and beg for your mercy and give him the letter from His Highness Prince Jing."
Chu Li shook his head and said: "Forget it."
Lu Yurong glanced at him sideways: "Why, don't you want to accept His Highness King Jing's favor?"
Chu Li said: "I'm afraid His Highness King Jing's face is not as big as you think!"
Lu Yurong smiled and shook her head: "You think too highly of him!"
Chu Li shook his head and smiled without saying a word.
Chang Gui sat in the hall and touched his bulging belly with satisfaction.
The feeling of trampling a proud man under his feet was so charming that it made him excited and satisfied.
He touched his beard and sighed again, feeling a little unfinished.
It's a pity that Chu Li is too sensible and doesn't give himself a chance to have an attack.
I originally thought that upon hearing about this humble mission, a proud and arrogant Chu Li would lose his temper. After all, he was young and energetic, so he would be unconvinced and question it, and she would laugh and ask him if he wanted to do this mission.
Chu Li would definitely say he didn't want to, and then he would announce his other mission to help transport feces!
At this point, he has no choice but to refuse. If he refuses, then he will have to take part in the book so that he, the proud man of heaven, will completely fall into the dust and never be able to stand up again!
Thinking of this, he felt inexplicably excited and licked the corners of his mouth, as if he were facing a feast.
Then he shook his head and sighed. It's a pity that Chu Li was so sensible and flexible that he agreed directly. This guy was slippery and escaped a disaster!
Suddenly he felt something, and he raised his head sharply. Lu Yurong, whose face was covered by a white gauze and dressed in a white shirt, was standing in the hall.
His heart trembled, this woman has such profound cultivation!
But no matter how strong your cultivation is, you don’t dare to do anything to yourself!
"His Royal Highness King Jing has a letter for Chang Chengshou." She took out the letter from her sleeves, gently relaxed her hands, the waterproof envelope fluttering as if held by an invisible hand, and walked slowly to Chang Gui.
Chang Gui took it with a normal expression, tore it open, glanced at it, and gently placed it on the table next to him.
"What does Chang Chengshou mean?" Lu Yurong asked.
Chang Gui said with a smile: "This Chu Li is really impressive. Before he arrived, letters of concern from several princes had already arrived... To be honest with this girl, I not only received a letter from His Highness Prince Jing, but also
I received letters from Prince Bao, Prince Kang, and Prince Ping, asking me to take care of Chu Li."
Lu Yurong frowned, also surprised.
What His Highness Prince Jing thought of, almost the prince would have thought of it, one step earlier than himself.
"I can't afford to offend these princes." Chang Gui shook his head and sighed: "But! Rules are rules. If there are no rules, there will be no rule. I am ordered by the court to guard this city in compliance with your majesty's order, so I must obey the law.
Restrain the law, act according to the rules, and don’t show favoritism!”
"If you change to a leisurely job, it's not to the point of showing favoritism, right?" Lu Yurong frowned and stared at him, her bright eyes clear and cold, secretly annoyed.
She thought that Chang Gui did not look like an upright minister. He was just seizing the opportunity to show his strengths in order to get into the eyes of the emperor. He was an opportunistic person who wanted to climb up the ladder by stepping on Chu Li.
Chang Gui said in a deep voice: "Chu Li wants to change his job, and others also want to change his job. Everyone is dissatisfied with their job. How can I convince others if this is the case?"
Among those sent to the imperial mausoleum, some have a chance to turn over, especially those court officials who have no martial arts skills. After arriving in the attached city, they may return to the court, but some people have no chance to turn over.
Chu Li was sent to the imperial mausoleum by the emperor's personal decree. He deceived the emperor and ignored the name of the emperor. Once the golden mouth and jade teeth were opened, the emperor had no joke. How could he change his words? Therefore, Chu Li had no chance of turning over.
.
Such a guy who can't stand up and is a world-famous person is his best stepping stone. If he takes care of him well, he can win the reputation of being a direct minister. After leaving the attached city, he can hopefully enter the eyes of the emperor and regain his reputation.
Enter the divine city.
Although the princes will blame themselves for not showing mercy, as long as they have the name of a direct minister and do the things of a direct minister, they will eventually be convinced. Furthermore, even if they have a grudge, it doesn't matter, as long as they can repeat it.
Return to the Capital of Gods and leave this remote place!
"Chang Chengshou is very good at calculating, but I'm afraid your wishful thinking won't work!" Lu Yurong said coldly: "Chu Li is not someone you can rub against at will!"
"When we get here, even if it's a dragon, I have to take care of it!" Chang Gui smiled faintly. (To be continued.)
