Chapter 95: The Mission of the Northern Qi Mission and the Inspection Institute

The smile on Qin Feng's face never stopped throughout the whole day.

He was very happy in the morning because his visualization method was successful. Later, when he was visualizing, he practiced the Hegemonic Kung Fu.

All the principles of how the exercises work are clearly visible.

Originally, it would take three or four days to improve my proficiency in this technique, but now, after practicing for most of the day, my proficiency has improved a little.

This efficiency has been increased by more than four times, which is simply terrifying!
Not only that, Qin Feng picked up a new martial arts book, a simple one, which made him practice faster.

Take the Luomu sword technique that I am watching at this moment as an example.

After he finished reading the book, he immediately understood all its principles.

He just used his finger to represent the sword and circulated the mental method casually. After practicing it once, his proficiency increased rapidly.

Falling Wood Sword Technique【Proficient】==》Falling Wood Sword Technique【Minor Success】

That’s right, after just practicing it once, he reached the minor success level.

And by visualizing himself, Qin Feng discovered the mistakes and omissions. After making improvements, he practiced it several times again, and his proficiency increased again.

Falling Wood Sword Technique [Minor Accomplishment] ==》 [Mastery] ==》 [Great Accomplishment] ==》 [Perfection]

After practicing it only five times, Qin Feng mastered this sword technique completely.

Not only that, Qin Feng also perfected and improved it, and renamed it "Falling Leaves Sword Technique".

The effect of this sword technique is different from the Nine Deadly Swords, which mainly relies on fast swords.

As for the Luo Mu Xiao Xiao sword technique, it is mainly defensive, while the offense mainly uses continuous moves, fast and slow, forcing the opponent to show flaws, and then defeating the enemy with one move.

In the past, Qin Feng’s proficiency in this improved martial art was not increasing very quickly.

But now, the speed has also increased.

However, he could not fully understand the principles behind this technique. It was easy to master it, but it would take some time to achieve great success and perfection.

"Brother Ye's swordsmanship is really amazing."

When Qin Feng was practicing swordsmanship, Fan Xian came back.

Although the finger is used as a sword, Fan Xian can still see the murderous intent. This sword technique is very powerful.

"It's not that great, it's just that my kung fu skills have improved, so anything I practice becomes easy." Qin Feng is usually humble.

What he said is also a kind of truth.

It is just like the principle that one law can lead to all laws and one can apply it to other similar cases.

When your martial arts skills are high, you can see the commonalities and connections among all things in martial arts.

“That’s still amazing.”

Fan Xian chuckled, "Brother Ye, you see I don't know any sword techniques either, why don't you teach me another sword technique?"

Hearing this, Qin Feng said: "You can learn swordsmanship, but you have to finish learning boxing first. You can't bite off more than you can chew."

Fan Xian muttered, "You've learned so much, but you don't seem to be greedy."

"That's because I have good teeth!"

Fan Xian: “.”

Then he changed the subject and said, "Brother Ye, the roast duck I brought is still hot. Shall we eat it first?"

"Row."

The two sat down at the table behind the entrance and started eating.

"Where are Teng Zijing and Wang Qinian?"

"I sent him away early. Anyway, there's nothing to do today."

If Qin Feng was not here, Fan Xian might use his own yard as an office area, and Teng Zijing, Wang Qinian and others would also come here frequently.

But after Qin Feng moved in, Fan Xian turned this yard into a restricted area.

Fan Xian asked, "Brother Ye, can I trust Dean Chen? Although he has been helping me, I always feel that he has other intentions."

"That Wang Qinian was sent by Dean Chen. If I hadn't seen that Old Wang was a good person, I would have chased him away long ago."

"I can definitely believe it." Qin Feng said, "But I can't believe it completely."

Hearing this, Fan Xian thought for a moment and said, "Dean Chen also said this to me. He told me to trust him, but not completely."

Qin Feng smiled and said, "In this world, the only person you can rely on is yourself! Even if it's me, isn't it for the Grandmaster's technique that I came to you for?"

"Brother Ye, you are different. I can feel that you are truly kind to me." Fan Xian shook his head.

Maybe words can deceive people, but various feelings and some details cannot deceive people.

Fan Xian could sense that Qin Feng had no ill will towards him.

If this was all a lie, then even the best actor couldn't match Qin Feng's acting skills, so Fan Xian had to admit defeat.

Qin Feng laughed and didn't say anything more on this topic.

"You went to the palace yesterday. Did you remember the terrain?"

"Yes." Fan Xian nodded and said, "I went to many places yesterday and found out where the Queen Mother lives. I also know the terrain. But the Queen Mother will not leave the palace recently, so it's hard to find an opportunity. I have to wait for the right time."

After saying this, Fan Xian's face suddenly became angry.

"Brother Ye, I went to the eldest princess's place yesterday."

"How to say?"

"Wan'er's mother seems to be a lunatic. There is something wrong here." Fan Xian pointed to his head and said.

"She actually directly admitted that she was the one who planned the Niulan Street assassination, and she also said that when I went out for an outing, she wanted to send someone to assassinate me."

"That's not all. When I went to Guangxin Palace, she even tempted me to kill her. She's simply a psychopath!"

To be honest, since he grew up, Fan Xian has discovered that although this era is backward, the people in this world are still normal.

But this guy Li Yunrui is totally abnormal.

She is the eldest princess, and she actually gambled her life on him. She is completely crazy!
"So, what are you going to do?"

"What else can I do? My mother-in-law wants to kill me, so I can only fight back." Fan Xian spread his hands.

"The gap between my status and the eldest princess's is still too big. I have to climb up!"

Fan Xian’s main problem now is that he can’t let go of Lin Wan’er. If Lin Wan’er wasn’t there, Fan Xian could have completely avoided it, or thought of other ways.

But because of Lin Wan'er, he had no choice but to face the challenge, fight with the eldest princess, and find a way to resolve the matter.

"How to climb?" Qin Feng asked curiously.

"I don't know, and I don't want to think about it."

Fan Xian shook his head and said, "Our primary goal now is to find a way to get the key out of the palace. We can think of other things later."

Fan Xian was really curious about Ye Qingmei. After arriving in Kyoto, he heard a lot about Ye Qingmei.

So he is obsessed with the box left by his mother.

"Don't think so much."

Qin Feng ate the roast duck clean, stood up and said, "Come to the yard, let me see how good your boxing is."

"Okay." Fan Xian is not a lazy person, he is very persistent.

These days, although he is very busy every day, he still finds time to practice and practice boxing. When he came to the yard, he immediately started practicing Shaoyang Fist.

He only learned a few moves of boxing and Fan Xian finished them quickly.

"Not bad." Qin Feng nodded with satisfaction.

Fan Xian's comprehension may not be among the best, but it is among the best.

Fan Xian actually relied on himself to slowly comprehend the grandmaster-level martial arts technique, the Tyrannical Technique, and had never had a teacher to teach him.

This guy is really lucky. He managed to overcome all the difficulties by accident. Otherwise, he would have ruined himself long ago.

"I'll teach you a few more boxing techniques. I've also gained some insights into the domineering techniques recently, so I can teach you some."

At this time, Fan Xian's goal in martial arts was to reach the ninth rank. He would have to wait until he reached the ninth rank before he could start learning visualization techniques.

"Thank you, Brother Ye." Fan Xian said excitedly.

In the blink of an eye, it was May 18th.

During these few days, due to the war between Qi and Qing, Kyoto has been relatively stable.

As for Fan Xian, he would go to the Prime Minister's Residence if he had nothing to do. The Second Prince would invite him to dinner, and the Prince of Jing would invite him to go out for a spring outing or something like that.

Life is pretty comfortable.

But this was just the calm before the storm. The war situation on the front line had already become clear, and the State of Qi had sent an envoy heading towards Kyoto.

Dongyi City also sent an envoy.

Inside the Inspection Institute, Chen Pingping and Yan Ruohai have already started a sting operation, with the goal of eliminating all those people in the Inspection Institute who may have an impact on the overall situation.

As for the Crown Prince, because of the previous misunderstanding, he is now trying to build a relationship with Fan Xian and wants to cooperate with him.

As for the Second Prince, this guy had invited Fan Xian several times, but Fan Xian kept making excuses, which made his patience gradually wear thin.

Oh, by the way, there is also Guo Baokun!

This guy's injuries have almost healed, and he is now trying to find a way to take revenge on Fan Xian.

"Brother Ye, important news!"

Fan Xian has been very busy recently, running outside from morning to night every day, so in the yard, it is usually Fan Ruoruo who comes to accompany Qin Feng and talk to him about the news outside when she has nothing to do.

"What big news?" Qin Feng asked casually without stopping.

"Zhuang Mohan! Zhuang Mohan is coming to Kyoto. He is coming with the Northern Qi delegation."

"Zhuang Mohan? The great writer of Northern Qi?"

"It's him!" Fan Ruoruo said excitedly.

"Besides my brother, he is my second idol!"

As a talented woman in Kyoto, Fan Ruoruo has a high talent for literature.

The State of Qing was founded on military power, and in terms of literature, it was still far behind the State of Qi.

Qi has always been the leader in the literary world.

As the first person in the literary world of Northern Qi, Zhuang Mohan was naturally popular.

Not to mention Qi, in Qing, the scholars were very excited when they heard that Zhuang Mohan was coming to Kyoto. Some were so excited that they stayed awake all night.

"I think your brother might be the next great writer." Qin Feng said casually.

"That shouldn't be the case!"

Fan Ruoruo said with self-awareness: "Although my brother is very capable, he is still far behind Master Zhuang. But in my heart, my brother's Red Mansion is comparable to Master Zhuang's poems."

Qin Feng smiled and didn't respond.

After finishing this set of punches, he asked, "Ruoruo, when will these envoys arrive in Beijing?"

Fan Ruoruo replied: "The news says that they have passed Cangzhou. Taking into account the time it takes for the news to spread, I estimate that they should arrive the day after tomorrow. If it's early, they might even arrive tomorrow afternoon!"

Cangzhou is already within the territory of Kyoto. The delegation must have taken the main roads all the way to Kyoto, and they would have been escorted by the Qing army.

The speed is definitely not slow. Taking into account the time for message transmission, it should arrive within four days.

"The day after tomorrow, Kyoto will become lively." Qin Feng said with a smile.

Speaking of which, he hasn't had a good look around Kyoto since he came here, so he might as well go out for a walk when the time comes.

In the evening, Fan Xian came back with a tired look on his face.

He has been a model worker these days.

Not only did he have to deal with the Crown Prince and the Second Prince, but because Lin Ruofu supported him, many officials in the court came to him to establish relationships with him, and he had to deal with them.

At the Inspection Institute, Chen Pingping also assigned him tasks.

These people simply treated him like a beast of burden, sending him back and forth to various places.

Back in the yard, Fan Xian complained about these things to Qin Feng.

Finally, he said, "Brother Ye, you have also been assigned a task."

"Me? Mission?" Qin Feng pointed at himself, looking confused.

What's going on?
Qin Feng was living well in Fan Xian's yard, and his strength was steadily improving. How come he suddenly had a mission too?

"Yes."

Fan Xian nodded and said, "Dean Chen said that you didn't take Yingzi's clothes for nothing. You have to do some work."

"So what is the mission?" Qin Feng asked.

He knew that Chen Pingping's things were not so easy to get, but he had never used the identity of Shadow even once.

He would have to consider the situation for this mission. If there was no major risk, it would be fine for him to go.

After all, staying in the house all the time is pretty boring.

If it was a mission that was deliberately intended to make things difficult for him, Qin Feng was not stupid and would naturally not go.

"After a while, escort someone south to Suzhou."

"Suzhou? Jiangnan? When are you going there?"

"It should be after the Northern Qi delegation arrives. I'll have to wait for Dean Chen to tell me the exact date. I'm just telling you in advance now."

Hearing this, Qin Feng asked: "What important person is this? Why do you want me to escort him? Is there no one in their inspection institute?"

"I don't know about this either. Dean Chen was very mysterious. He said that person is very important and we can't tell you now."

"If it's so important, why do you want me, an outsider, to deliver it?" Qin Feng was stunned.

"He did say that he might run into a ninth-rank master from Dongyi City, so he needs your protection. He also needs to pick up something in Suzhou, and you need to escort it back in person."

Fan Xian listened to what Chen Pingping said to him, but did not notice anything unusual.

I just have doubts. Even if the Inspection Institute is short of staff, they shouldn't let Qin Feng escort them. This is totally against the rules.

"I understand." Qin Feng nodded.

But I became alert in my heart.

He felt that there were two possibilities for Chen Pingping's actions.

The first possibility is that Fan Xian is about to go north, and because Sean’s matter is too important, he doesn’t want him to be involved and transfers him away in advance.

This is normal. After all, a warrior above the ninth rank has a significant impact on things. If Fan Xian cannot be put in danger, the loss will outweigh the gain, so it is better to transfer him away directly.

The second option is to kill him!

After all, Grand Master Ye Liuyun has been traveling around outside Kyoto.
