Chapter 994: Errand (Part 2)

All four looked at Chang Gui.

Chang Gui still looked at Chu Li with a smile: "Sweeping a street, isn't it difficult?"

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, let's take a rest first, don't fall ill and stay in bed, start tomorrow, come over after breakfast tomorrow Go ahead, someone will take you with you."

"Yes." Chu Li smiled, and asked slowly, "Which one of the city guard's relatives is the most cherished?"

This question was abrupt and strange, Chang Gui frowned at him.

Chu Li shook his head and said, "Then I'll find a place to live by myself?"

"You can live wherever you want, as long as you don't delay your errands." Chang Gui waved his hand with an impatient expression.

Chu Li cupped his fists: "Farewell."

The four of them withdrew from the city guard's mansion, their expressions were all ugly.

The errand of sweeping the street can be seen at a glance as a disgrace.

It was an insult to him that his dignified first-rank bodyguard came to sweep the street. The city guard looked at him with a smile, but he was full of hostility.

Lu Yurong suddenly gave a "puchi" smile: "Sweeping the streets, it's a great job, I'm going to take a tour tomorrow, go back and 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 job?"

"If you refuse, there is a better job waiting for me." Chu Li said lightly: "Transport feces."

"This one is more vicious!" Lu Yurong exclaimed.

Fayuan said: "Brother Chu accepts like this?"

Chu Li had been thinking for a while, and now he smiled: "He's a coward,...Of course I won't sweep the streets!"

"Then what should we do?" Fa Yuan said, "He has a high position and authority, so he can only obey, not disobey!"

The city guard is the highest official in the city and is directly responsible to the imperial court. Chu Li is now dispatched to the imperial mausoleum. If he does not listen to the city guard and submits a letter, the emperor will be furious and impose a heavier punishment.

At that time, not only will they not be able to go back, but the situation will be even worse.

Now that he has abolished his martial arts, he is waiting for the emperor's mercy to release him back to the capital, and then he can recover his martial arts very quickly, all he is waiting for is a word from the emperor.

Chu Li smiled: "Everyone has weaknesses."

Fayuan looked at him suspiciously.

Xiao Qi said: "I'll go buy a house first, and settle down properly."

Chu Li shook his head: "No rush, just stay in the hotel first."

They quickly found an inn in the city and asked for a small courtyard. Neither Fayuan nor Lu Yurong had any intention of leaving.

Chu Li asked for a banquet, and sat in the small pavilion in the small courtyard to drink and eat.

Lu Yurong ate a few mouthfuls of food, sipped two sips of wine, and said with a smile: "Forget it, let me intercede for you and give him the letter from His Royal Highness King Jing."

Chu Li shook his head and said, "Forget it."

Lu Yurong squinted at him: "Why, don't you want to accept His Highness King Jing's favor?"

Chu Li said: "I'm afraid His Royal Highness King Jing's face is not as big as you imagined!"

Lu Yurong smiled and shook her head: "You think highly of him too!"

Chu Li shook his head and smiled without saying a word.

——

Chang Gui sat in the hall, stroking his bulging belly contentedly.

The feeling of trampling a proud man under his feet was so charming, it made him excited and satisfied.

He stroked his beard and sighed again, feeling a little unfinished.

It's a pity that this Chu Li is too sensible to give himself a chance to explode.

Originally, I thought that Chu Li, who was so arrogant and arrogant, would not be able to hold back when he heard about this humble job. After all, he was young and energetic, so he would definitely question him unconvinced, and he would laugh and ask him if he wanted to do this job.

Chu Li will definitely say no, then he will announce his other errand, helping to transport feces!

At this time, he can't help but refuse, if he refuses, then he will read a book hard, and let him, the proud son of heaven, fall into the dust completely, and he will never be able to stand up again!

Thinking of this, he was inexplicably excited, licking the corners of his mouth, as if he was facing a big meal.

Then he shook his head and sighed again. It's a pity that Chu Li is so knowledgeable and able to bend and stretch that he agreed directly. This guy is slippery and escaped a catastrophe!

He suddenly felt something, and suddenly raised his head, Lu Yurong, whose face was covered with a white veil and dressed in a white shirt, was standing in the hall.

His heart shuddered, this woman's cultivation is so deep!

But no matter how strong the cultivation base is, he dare not do anything to himself!

"His Royal Highness King Jing has a letter for Chang Chengshou." She took out the letter from her sleeve, and lightly let go of it. The waterproof envelope fluttered as if held by an invisible hand, and she arrived in front of Chang Gui without haste.

Chang Gui received it with a normal expression, and after tearing it open, Zhan Sujian 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 arrives, the letters from several princes have arrived... To tell the truth from this girl, I not only received the letter from His Royal Highness King Jing, but also I received letters from Prince Bao, Prince Kang, Prince Ping, and the three princes, asking me to take care of Chu Li."

Lu Yurong frowned, also suddenly.

What His Royal Highness Jing Wang thought of, almost the prince would not have thought of it, one step earlier than himself.

"I can't afford to offend the lords." Chang Gui shook his head and sighed: "But! Rules are rules, and there is no rule without rules. I am ordered by the court to guard this city according to His Majesty's order, so I will serve the public. Restrain the law, act according to the rules, and don't favoritism!"

"Changing a leisurely job, isn't it to the point of favoritism?" Lu Yurong frowned and stared at him, her bright eyes were clear and cold, and she was secretly annoyed.

She saw that Chang Gui did not look like a pure and straightforward minister, but just seized the opportunity to show his strengths in order to get into the eyes of the emperor. He was an opportunist who wanted to step on Chu Li to climb up.

Chang Gui said in a deep voice: "Chu Li wants to change jobs, and others also want to change jobs. Everyone is dissatisfied with their jobs. Once this example is opened, how can I convince others?"

Some of the people assigned to the imperial mausoleum have a slight chance to stand up, especially those court officials who have no martial arts. After coming to the attached city, they may return to the court again, while some people have no chance to stand up.

Chu Li was dispatched to the imperial mausoleum by the emperor himself, to deceive the emperor in the name of his superiors, once the golden mouth and jade teeth were opened, the emperor had no jokes, and he made a promise, how could he change it back? Therefore, Chu Li has no chance of turning over.

Such a guy who can't stand up and is famous all over the world is his best stepping stone. If he takes care of him well, he can win the name of a direct minister, leave the attached city, and hope to enter the emperor's eyes and start anew. Step into the capital of God.

The princes will certainly blame themselves for not being sympathetic, but as long as they have the name of direct ministers and act as direct ministers, they will be convinced in the end. Return to God City, leave this remote place!

"Chang Chengshou has a good plan, and I'm afraid that your wishful thinking will not work!" Lu Yurong said coldly: "Chu Li is not someone you can rub as you like!"

"When we get here, even the dragon has to be coiled for me!" Chang Gui smiled faintly.
