"Grandpa, grandpa, the eldest brother in the world asked me to tell you that Xinzhou Shou is here, his name is Wu Xian, he only has three stars of Tianji cultivation, he used to be a subordinate of Prime Minister Han Chuanzhong, after Han Chuanzhong died, he was imprisoned for contradicting King Zheng, just now
After being released, he somehow became the governor of Zhizhou!
Also, he adopted the Hehe we met yesterday as his adopted daughter!"
When Feng Feng Huohuo came running, Shi Lai Feng Feng Huohuo said a lot of things, which made Xia Yi's head full of confusion.
Okay, he understood all the above, it was just that King Zheng wanted to give him some gambling, but what kind of operation was the last sentence, accepting Hehe as... a adopted daughter?
"Is he in charge of the state government?" he asked.
Shi Lai took a breath: "No, the big brother in the world arranged for him to stay in a nearby inn. Grandpa, do you want to go find him?"
"No, wait until he comes to me."
Shi Lai made a sound, looked around, and asked: "Grandpa, where is that mink? It hasn't had a bath in three or four days. Do you want my help?"
The baby mink sleeping on Xia Yi's pillow suddenly pricked up its ears, its face alert. After hearing Xia Yi's reply of "no", it relaxed slightly, mumbled something crazy, turned over, and went back to sleep.
After Xia Yi answered some of Shi Lai's unanswered questions about the bamboo hat turning into wings, and Shi Lai left Xia Yi's house in a hurry, he was now racing against time, wanting to experience flying as soon as possible.
"The old part of Han Chuanzhong." Xia Yi murmured thoughtfully, but Xia Yi didn't pay much attention.
In the Holy Soul Continent where strength is respected, official position has no meaning to Xia Yi at this time.
But what he didn't expect was that not long after Shi Lai left, and just before dinner, the new governor came directly to his door.
Moreover, it was a newly formed family of three who came to visit us together.
"Junior Wu Xian, with his clumsy Jing Miao Ge and adopted daughter He He, pays homage to senior Yi Xia."
Wu Xian and his wife bowed respectfully and asked. He He also followed the same example, but his slightly stiff body still showed his nervousness.
After some deliberation, Hehe accepted Wu Xian's adoption, and since he was adopted, there were certain things that he couldn't hide.
This refers to cultivation, not gender.
Asking the human world to help cover it up, pretending in front of Wu Xian that she was not Yapo's subordinate, but a young female cultivator who had become self-reliant after being enlightened at an early age by chance. After Wu Xian was a little surprised, he accepted her calmly, or in other words, he was even more happy.
Adopting a 12-year-old daughter with a two-star Tianxuan cultivation level feels rewarding.
As someone with only three stars, he doesn't quite understand what kind of concept this is.
But facing Xia Yi, Hehe felt weak. Not only was the inexplicable conversation yesterday evening, he was also worried that his holy soul in female disguise would be seen through.
But sooner or later this hurdle must be passed.
"Wu Zhou Shou is so polite. So this little girl is your adopted daughter? Then who was the girl who was with him yesterday evening?"
Wu Xian was stunned for a moment and looked at Hehe.
Hehe whispered: "It's a sister I met by chance. She's very nice to me."
Wu Xian understood and said to Xia Yi: "To be honest, Senior Yi Xia, my adopted daughter met her by chance today and just accepted her. I didn't expect that she had contact with Senior yesterday."
"The 12-year-old Erxing Tianxuan is not ordinary. Based on my knowledge, there are only a handful of such geniuses." Xia Yi smiled and said: "Wuzhou is blessed, come in and have a seat."
"Thank you, senior, for the invitation."
Wu Xian followed with his wife and daughter, and Xia Yi turned around and said: "Lan'er, prepare water! Wu Zhoushou forgive me, I don't like drinking tea, so my family never buys tea."
"Senior, you're welcome." Wu Xian respectfully followed Xia Yi into the guest room. When Xia Yi sat down and led him to sit down, he did not sit down. Instead, he waved his clothes, faced Xia Yi, and bowed at ninety degrees.
He coughed several times and said in a deep voice: "Junior Wu Xian, I came here to apologize to my senior!"
His wife went even further, as if she had been prepared, she knelt down directly on her knees! Hehe's face was blank, what? Asking for forgiveness? Why did he feel like he had been in a big hole?
Hesitantly, he followed and knelt down.
Xia Yi didn't ask them to stand up immediately, but frowned and asked, "What does Wu Zhou Shou mean by this?"
Wu Xian said respectfully: "This junior has not officially taken office yet, so he is not considered the governor of the state at this time. He is asking for forgiveness from the senior as a fifth-grade imperial censor!
A month ago, Han Yu met with an assassination death. Without any investigation, I concluded that you, who had a grudge against Prime Minister Han, assassinated him. I directly remonstrated with the king in the court to investigate and punish him severely. Later I found out that you were celebrating your birthday in Lieyang City that night.
There is absolutely no chance of assassination!
The senior who killed the demon king with his own strength is a hero who saves thousands of people! I humiliated the senior with the heart of a villain, and I hope that the senior can forgive me!"
Xia Yi raised his brows and said with a smile: "So it's just this, just some minor misunderstandings. Wu Zhoushou, please get up quickly. Look, you have made such a big move that the little girl's face turned pale with fright."
wu
, let them get up.
In fact, he didn't want to bring his newly adopted adopted daughter He He to Xia Yi, but for some unknown reason, He He insisted on following him. He just thought that the little girl who had lost her parents was a little afraid of being left behind by him again.
I can only agree to take her with me.
He didn't know that Hehe was here to see if he had received the mission, and Hehe didn't even know that he had followed him to see if he had received the mission, and he was also carrying a big pot on his back.
"Senior, it's good if you don't blame this junior." Wu Xian sighed softly and sat down slowly: "I have always regretted being thrown into prison by the king. I didn't expect that I would have the chance to apologize to you in person."
"I see that Wu Zhoushou is weak. Did he suffer punishment in prison? Nowadays, King Zheng likes to use torture, and I have heard about it." Xia Yi said.
Wu Xian smiled bitterly and said bluntly: "That's right. But although the tyrant tortured me in every possible way, I, Wu Xian, am a native of Dazheng and his minister after all! Even though I kept saying in the court that Dazheng will surely perish at the hands of the tyrant.
, but the tyrant appointed me as the governor of Zhizhou to take charge of the civil affairs during the war with Qi, Wu Xian still has to do his best!"
He looked at Xia Yi: "Senior, what do you think of this war?"
"Ma Jiedushi has led the monk camp and more than half of the soldiers in the ordinary sergeant camp to the border. It seems that the war is about to break out. It is not impossible that a small-scale war has broken out at this moment.
What do I think? The incident started when King Zheng kidnapped the seven daughters of King Qi. I am afraid that Qi will not let it go, so it can only fight, and it may even lead to the ceding of territory to one of them and the destruction of the country!"
Wu Xian paused for a moment and sighed: "After listening to what Senior said, are you not going to take action? I know that Senior, you may not be from Dazheng, but you are just temporarily living in Lieyang City, but from your actions of killing the Demon King, Wu Xian can see
For your bravery!
Although I don’t want to admit it, our country, Dazheng, is indeed inferior to Qi in terms of national strength, and the strength of the monks is far behind. I am afraid that we will lose ground after the war begins!
Can you bear to watch the war gradually spread to the interior of Dazheng, here, and to Lieyang City? Can you bear to see the people displaced and falling into panic?!"
Before Xia Yi could answer, he stood up excitedly: "If you can say the word "forbearance" in your mouth, then Wu Xian will never come! Wu Xian will admit that you are wrong! Cough, cough, cough..."
During a series of coughs, Xia Yi found that Hehe's face was even uglier than Wu Xian's, and secretly felt funny, so he was waiting for me here?
Play hard to get?
Facing Wu Xian's gaze, he sighed and shook his head: "Wu Zhoushou is confused, you wronged me about Han Chuanzhong, now you are wronging me again in this matter?
It's not that I don't want to take action, it's that I can't take action! If I take action, I can indeed destroy an army of Qi in a moment, but that will only make the war get out of hand, and the female prime minister of Qi who has been promoted to the king will be
Will be moved by the wind!
At that time, who will stop her? Who will stop other possible kings of Qi?
How can Wuzhou Shou, with his weak body and the power of his words, drive away the king of Qi?!"
"Cough cough cough cough cough..." Wu Xian made a series of coughing sounds, "The king... the king does not interfere in national wars, this is the rule!"
"Yes, these are the rules." Xia Yi spread his hands: "So I can't take action."
Wu Xian, who was coughing, suddenly stopped and looked at Xia Yi in shock... What do you mean?
