Chapter 83: First day in office

6 min read1,392 words

After a week of training, Xia Fan’s injury was already better-even if it was

not as good as a demon, the alchemist’s recovery ability was far greater than

that of the average person, especially after he was rarely free, he spent most

of his time on entrapment. Above, it speeds up wound healing in disguise.

Although I still feel a little tingling when I touch it now, it basically

doesn't hinder the action.

So Xia Fan decided to bid farewell to the princess.

When she saw Ning Wanjun, she was doing her own practice-not for air-

entraining, but poking wooden targets in the sand training ground. A large

number of thick target rods were suspended in the air by hemp rope. They did

not seem to bear the force, but half of them had been broken by the spear, and

the ground was full of cracked wood chips. There is also a piece of sweat on

her forehead, and the ends of her hair are taped into coils.

is close, Xia Fan can even smell the sweat on her body.

It is true that not all beautiful girls are fragrant-when sweat is wrapped in

layers of fabric, it is what it smells like.

Probably she was also aware of this. After receiving the towel from the maid,

the princess took the initiative to move the distance between the two.

"Huh...Don't you rest for a few more days?" Ning Wanjun said after listening

to his intentions, "You can actually move here for permanent residence. This

village is a bit far away from the Privy Council, but the comfort level is

comparable to that of the Privy Council. The small broken house is much

better."

"Thank you princess for your concern," Xia Fan pretended to arch his hands,

"but after all, it is close to the Privy Council, and it is better to deal

with any emergencies."

"It seems that you are quite concerned about this matter." The princess raised

her mouth slightly, "It's just that I have to remind you that although you are

already engaged in the mission, you will definitely encounter many

difficulties in the beginning. You have to do well. Prepare mentally."

"That's why I want to return home sooner."

It’s strange if there is no difficulty-the Gyeonggi General Government may not

mind using a prefect to brush up its prestige, but the local Privy Council is

different. They broke it by themselves, but their vital interests.

"If you have a problem that you can't solve, you must come and discuss it with

me." Ning Wanjun threw the towel after wiping sweat into the hand of the maid,

"Don't forget that I am your dependant, and don't hesitate to say whatever

support you need— \-Although what I can do is still limited, especially on the

bright side."

...... Do you rely on it?

If he can't even sit in this position, I'm afraid the princess will find

someone else to support him immediately.

But this statement at least sounds better than indifferent.

"Then I'm leaving." Xia Fan arched his hands again.

The princess nodded, and then stopped him, "Since you don't plan to live in

the villa, remember to come at least once every two or three days. Not only

the Privy Council, but other things I occasionally want to hear from you. "

"Other things mean..."

"Political affairs, foreign affairs, intelligence, everything I handle can be

discussed."

For my opinion? Xia Fan was a little bit confused. In the eyes of outsiders,

he should be just a man with a talent for magic, let alone making comments, it

is a problem that he can't even understand.

But considering that he failed to refuse this generous "reward", he has

actually boarded the other party's ship. It is not a bad thing to learn more

about the additional information.

In recent years, the efficiency of information transmission is not only slow,

but also has a great stratification. For example, national policies and wars,

the only way to obtain it is oral verbal from the upper level, and it is

almost impossible for ordinary people to get timely and effective information.

"I understand." He nodded finally.

……

Back to Jinxia City, Xia Fan sent the fox monster back to his residence, and

then went to the Privy Council.

There is no handover procedure, and no one welcomes it. There is no one in the

headquarters. If he hadn't received a new alchemist robe from the reception

officer and replaced the bronze medal with a jade medal, he would even doubt

whether the princess's award had happened.

Still, because he was injured and recuperating, the entire command was on

vacation?

Xia Fan had to go to the front hall again and found the reception officer.

More than half a month ago, the other party was still his own leader, but now

the status of the two is very different.

Seeing him turning back, the receptionist hurriedly bowed and asked, "Master,

do you have anything else to tell you?"

"How many people were there in the headquarters before?" Xia Fan said straight

to the point.

"Uh...As for the alchemist, there are sixteen people, three of whom are judges

and one is engaged."

"What about non-alchemists?"

"That's more, there are almost forty or fifty."

"But now there is no one in the command!" Xia Fan raised his voice, "Yuan was

transferred away, and Zhang Shen was sentenced to death. These are only two

people. Where are the others?"

"My lord..." The receptionist hesitated for a moment, "Since the news of your

takeover arrived, they have successively dismissed all non-alchemists. The

remaining alchemists were either temporarily transferred to other ministries

or chose to report illness, so ...There will be no other people in the command

for the time being."

"Transfer to another department? Who spoke?"

The reception officer looked embarrassed, "At that time...you hadn't taken

over the job."

When he said this, Xia Fan understood everything. Because the handover was not

carried out on the spot, Yuan Engage can completely describe the transfer as a

previous decision. Of course, this kind of thing cannot be done by one person,

and someone needs to cooperate with him. In other words, other engagements are

openly standing on their opposite sides.

He is now a veritable polished commander~www.mtlnovel.com~Since these people

are reluctant to stay with the headquarters, can I just get rid of them? Xia

Fan said solemnly.

"Of course, you are in charge of the mission. But you can only exempt them

from positions like ** judges. Their alchemist status is the responsibility

of the general government. As long as they do not make obvious mistakes, the

Gyeonggi government will not deprive this official title."

"So what about the new alchemists? I remember you said that we were the first

group."

"My lord, in fact, the second batch of new alchemists came to the Fuzhong to

report two days ago. There were six people in total. But..." The receptionist

stopped talking.

"But what? You said. It's not your problem, I won't blame you."

"If the department believes that they have not completed the basic teaching

and have not reached the standard for performing the tasks, they can not be

released to the command department."

Yes, Xia Fan rolled his eyes in his heart. Since there is this rule, then he

must be no one.

Similarly, it can be deduced that the Ministry of Finance will not approve the

various fees he applied for. As for the recording department... it makes no

difference whether they support it or not.

The princess said that she would encounter a lot of difficulties at the

beginning, which is really correct, or that the actual situation is even more

difficult.

If he was just the princess’s substitute in the mansion, he would slowly draw

in and lure him in afterwards. After a little effort, he would always let the

other three parts put down this unpleasantness and join them again.

But what he has to do is to completely eliminate the evil and the root cause.

The difference between the interests of the two sides is so great that there

is basically no possibility of reconciliation.

Jinxia City Privy Council has regarded him as an obstacle.

Out of the front hall, Xia Fan suddenly saw two familiar figures.

Wei Wushuang and Luo Youer.
