Heavenly Dao Formula

"Presumptuous, it's really rude!" The maid clenched her hands into fists, obviously trying to restrain herself.

"I'm sorry..." Xia Fan put down his cup and wiped the corner of his mouth. This time it was indeed his fault. No matter how the other party thought of this sentence, he should have omitted the attributive, "You mean the Privy Council?"

The third princess opened her hands and raised her eyebrows slightly, "You can change it into whatever you want, as long as it doesn't conflict with my goal, you can use it for anything, and this is my reward!"

"Including interference in local government affairs?"

"Of course, if it wasn't like that, you wouldn't be able to let go and do what you want, right?"

"Your Highness!" the maid reminded again.

And the princess was indifferent.

It has to be said that this reward moved Xia Fan's heart.

He knew what this meant. If the princess just wanted to find an eyeliner, or install a force of her own in the Privy Council, then he could only be regarded as a pawn at best. However, if he were to take the helm of the Privy Council, or even intervene in the local government that was actually controlled by her, there would be a lot he could do.

Xia Fan couldn't help flashing the thankful faces of the old ladies of the Zhou family and Tian family, as well as his cheap master, Zhao Dahai.

Although he slandered his master a lot all the way, and felt that he didn't know many spells and was wary of evil spirits and the Privy Council, now that he thought about it, he realized that he had protected himself very well, even too well, for more than ten years.

"It's risky for you to do that."

"If you do it without risk, what's there to say? Anyone can do it." Ning Wanjun took it for granted, "It's like you stood up for the people of Gaoshan County and tracked down to the end. Isn't there Is it risky? It is commendable to do it knowing that there is a risk. If you can take a risk, why can't I?"

Xia Fan didn't know how to refute for a while.

"That's why you trust me?"

"I've always asked for traces but not my heart." Ning Wanjun folded her hands and leaned back on the chair back, "If you turn a blind eye to the source of the evil in Gaoshan County, or according to your own words, you only come here to study alchemy, then I will I really dare not let go to this point. In addition, I am also very curious, if you are in charge of the Jinxia Privy Council, what will it look like."

Xia Fan originally had many doubts and wanted to ask, but when he got to his lips, the phrase "Ask your traces, don't ask your heart" - Indeed, the various "what ifs" and "ifs" assumed now are meaningless, even if Getting a reassuring answer is just a word of mouth. Compared with the light answer on the mouth, the more important thing is to see how to do it in the future.

For him too, and for the princess too.

Thinking of this, Xia Fan laughed at himself, "I thought you would use your official position or money to win me over."

"Although the relationship formed by interests comes quickly, it also goes quickly, not to mention that it is easily replaced by more lucrative interests. However, although the relationship formed by trust is slow, it is not so easy to break." Ning Wanjun did not shy away. He said, "What's more, what you want to do does not conflict with my purpose. It can even be said that only I can give you enough room to display. Therefore, ensuring that I can control every corner of the fief is also protecting yourself. Interests."

It's hard to see that this is something a fifteen or six-year-old girl would say.

However, this also gave Xia Fan a little more confidence. At least the people he dealt with could be regarded as mature in thinking.

"What is your real purpose? It shouldn't be just for Jinxia City, right?"

After all, even if she doesn't do anything, this place can keep her safe for the rest of her life.

"You want to know? I can tell you." Ning Wanjun looked at him with interest, "But once you know, you won't be able to refuse me. At least now, you still have a chance to choose."

Xia Fan chose to skip it without hesitation, "...I won't listen."

"Alright." She seemed a little regretful, "Then what's your answer?"

"Let me think about it."

"I really don't know what is good or bad, thanks to His Highness treating each other with such courtesy—" the maid said, biting her lip.

"If you talk nonsense again, get the hell out of the door." The princess said angrily.

"Woo-yes."

Xia Fan glanced at Li, who responded with calm eyes.

She expressed her will, just as she had said before.

"In that case, I can try it first." He looked back at Ning Wanjun.

"It doesn't matter." The princess didn't care at all, "Once you have experienced the feeling of holding power, it is very unlikely that you will be able to go back."

"So what should I do first?"

"Naturally, he first became the Prime Minister of the Privy Council."

"Wait, didn't you just say that the Privy Council was in charge of me?" Xia Fan suddenly realized that things were not simple.

"I support it, but I can't meddle in the affairs of the Privy Council." Ning Wanjun said slyly, "If the higher-ups ask for my opinion, I will definitely agree. Besides, I'm not just sitting back and enjoying - you are in the magistrate's mansion in Gaoshan County Everything I have done has been reported to the Holy Majesty, the main content is to save the princess at a critical moment and defeat the magistrate's plot, presumably the reward order will be issued soon."

Xia Fan noticed that she didn't use the word father, "This... is too far from the truth, right?"

"Do you think it's more credit for letting the people pay less evil tax, or saving the princess? Besides, I'm the person involved, and even if someone suspects, there's no way to find out." The princess shrugged, "Don't make a mistake, I'm helping you. Even in the Privy Council, protecting the members of the royal family is a great achievement, and if there is no accident, it is enough for you to upgrade to three levels in a row."

"From the beginning of the eighth rank directly to the fifth rank test?"

"That's right, this is also the lowest level of succession. If something like this happens, someone will be promoted and someone will leave. The command department should be responsible for the affairs of the command department, so according to the previous practice of giving priority to the government, you are very likely Promoted directly to the new command department."

"So that's how it is." Xia Fan clapped his hands suddenly, "Doesn't that mean that if I save you a few more times, I will be able to sit in the seat of Fu Cheng?"

"You have a good idea," Ning Wanjun couldn't help laughing out loud, "I'm a princess, so I can be willful once, and it's not surprising that I fall into danger. But come again and again? Do you know the fate of bullying the king?"

It must be a tragic ending that can write history books.

"How troublesome is it to go from working in the command department to being a government minister?"

"Theoretically, it may never be reached." The princess stretched out two fingers, "First, you have to climb another level to become a hundred blades. It's just that it is difficult to break through this part of the feat by eliminating evil spirits. You have to do it in other ways." We have made achievements in this aspect, and these tasks usually require dealing with hostile fighters, and the degree of danger cannot be compared with evil spirits."

"Second, you have to get the support of at least two of the three departments to be eligible to sit in that position. The only good news now is that the former Prime Minister of Jinxia City's Privy Council has just been promoted to guard not long ago, and it is estimated that he will soon If you are transferred from here, you don’t have to worry about being suppressed back and forth.”

"It's impossible... Are you sure you're not embarrassing me?"

"If it's someone else, it's almost the same. But I believe you can always find a way." Ning Wanjun said lightly.

Xia Fan had a question mark on his face.

Where did the other party's confidence come from?

He didn't understand it himself.
