I Turned My Daily Skills Into Divine Ability

Chapter 177 Eyeliner

The next day, Qi Furen got up from the bed and felt a pain in the back of his neck, which made his head feel dizzy and very uncomfortable.

But he clearly remembers what happened.

He was still worried about what happened last night.

He never expected that the useless son-in-law of the Gao family would turn around and suddenly possess such extraordinary strength.

This time they hit the wall. Not only did they fail to collect taxes, they were humiliated, and they also had to give others a large sum of money.

What a heavy loss.

But he couldn't just let it go. He was not willing to be ridden by the Gao family again.

Moreover, the Gao family is one of the richest families in the city. Without the fat of the Gao family, he and Celestial Human Sect would be very miserable.

So he felt it necessary to go to the Celestial Human Sect Taoist Temple and seek help from Elder Ma.

After all, in the final analysis, he is the person who works hard for Celestial Human Sect. If he cannot subdue the Gao family again, the interests of Celestial Human Sect will be lost.

After arriving at the Celestial Human Sect Taoist Temple, Qi Furen waited for a long time before meeting Elder Ma.

He immediately confused what happened last night and said it in a more exaggerated way.

Hearing Qi Furen's words, Elder Ma didn't take it seriously and was even a little impatient.

After all, the Gao family didn't really do anything to the Qi family, the two sides just had a conflict.

The Gao family may have objections to taxation, or even be hostile to the Qi family.

But in Elder Ma's view, it's not because of how powerful the Gao family is that this kind of thing happened.

But Qi Furen was weak and incompetent, greedy for life and afraid of death.

He was actually threatened and agreed not to pay taxes.

He couldn't even suppress the merchants under his control, and he still had the nerve to come to him to deal with the Gao family. He really thought that he was the one wiping his butt.

You know, Qi Furen's behavior is like a department manager of a company who cannot control his employees.

Then he ran to his boss and cried and complained about his grievances, asking his boss to help deal with the employee.

In the boss's mind, there is a high probability that he will only think that the department manager is not competent enough.

Naturally, you will feel displeased if you bother yourself with such a big deal.

Seeing that Elder Ma was a little unhappy and even unwilling to take care of the matter, Qi Furen immediately mentioned the murder of Magistrate Zhu.

"I suspect that this matter has something to do with the son-in-law of the Gao family, or the person behind him." Qi Furen added.

"Who is the person behind him?" Elder Ma asked again.

Qi Furen explained his speculation: "So there must be something fishy about Yuanshan Academy."

After hearing Qi Furen's words, his expression became even more gloomy.

It turned out that the son-in-law of the Gao family he was talking about was the headmaster of Yuanshan Academy and a student of Du Shaoling.

Not surprising.

The son-in-law of the Gao family seems to have received some inheritance from Wei Yi and has extraordinary means.

Moreover, the extraordinary Martial Artist Qi Furen mentioned was probably the one secretly protecting them.

"I feel that this Tang Yin will definitely be a disaster in the future. Elders should get rid of it as soon as possible to avoid future troubles!"

After hearing Qi Furen's words, Elder Ma's face became even colder, and he looked at Qi Furen with a sullen look on his face.

Are you teaching me how to do something?

"Do you think we didn't expect that Magistrate Zhu's matter was related to Du Shaoling, or do you think we couldn't understand the stakes?" Elder Ma shouted sternly.

Seeing that Elder Ma was angry, Qi Furen was so frightened that he knelt down and said, "I don't mean that. I am stupid and don't think carefully. I deserve death for my crime!"

"Okay, you can go back and do what you should do. I don't care about the grudges between you and the Gao family. I only need to get the incense money I need every month." Elder Ma said solemnly. said.

"Yes, I understand. Then I won't disturb the elders!" Qi Furen bowed and then left the hall respectfully.

Cold sweat broke out on his back, and he was filled with fear.

He really wanted to slap himself, how could he be so stupid.

How could others not know something that I can think of?

Matters with Magistrate Zhu There must be a reason why Celestial Human Sect did not take action against Du Shaoling and the others.

If you come here to talk about this today, aren't you trying to teach others how to do things?

It's strange that Elder Ma was happy after hearing this.

Nowadays, the affairs of the Gao family are very involved, and it is obviously beyond his ability to handle.

He could only silently swallow the loss he suffered yesterday, and could only pray that Celestial Human Sect would deal with Du Shaoling and Tang Yin as soon as possible.

…

Tang Yin went to the academy early in the morning. After what happened yesterday, he finally lived the ideal life he had always longed for.

The wife is gentle and virtuous, the son is filial and sensible, the father is kind and the son is filial, and the family is harmonious and warm.

The servants in the house all know the rules and speak nicely.

My father-in-law has a kind face and kind eyes, and he is amiable, and my mother-in-law's mouth feels like it has been wiped with honey.

He, who was once a transparent person in the family, has now become the center of the family.

Tang Houbo has also promised him that after he recovers from his injury, he will go to the academy to study hard and become a person like him.

Tang Yin had to admit that he was deeply satisfied with this and very happy.

He knew that although he had read many books from sages and sages, he was actually just a common man.

I will still care about these vulgar "vanity" and "satisfaction".

Therefore, he will not blame his wife for being vulgar and mind the contrast in her attitude before and after.

Tang Yin could understand that people are not saints, and living in this secular world, how can they not be affected by those vulgar concepts.

What's more, I am also vulgar, and I also care about other people's opinions and worldly perspectives.

Who has the right to expect his wife to be noble, selfless, and silently dedicated?

This is like being poor and ugly, but asking your wife to be as beautiful as a Celestial Immortal and to be able to walk in the hall and in the kitchen.

Tang Yin has always understood that the biggest conflict between him and the Gao family is his career failure.

Let the family's expectations be disappointed.

Fortunately, everything is over, and his life has finally ushered in better days.

What brought him all this was the cultivation of Confucianism and Taoism, so he must work harder to truly achieve a great cause in the future, shine his family name, and make his wife and son proud of him.

What happened to the Gao family last night also spread in the city.

After all, the fight between Tang Houbo and the eldest young master of the Qi family caused a big fuss. After that, everyone in the Qi family went to the Gao family to cause trouble.

Many people witnessed it with their own eyes, although they did not see what happened in the Gao family compound later.

But they all saw the final result. The Qi family were all knocked unconscious and thrown outside the gate of the Gao family.

And some details were also spread from the mouths of the servants of the Gao family.

Especially when I heard that Qi Furen was so frightened that he urinated and knelt down to beg for mercy.

It can be said to be very satisfying, and it also makes those who were bullied by the Qi family feel a bad breath.

But many people are also worried about the Gao family. After all, in their hearts, the Qi family is powerful and has backers, so they cannot afford to offend them.

"I never expected that the Gao family would be so capable."

"I heard that it was the son-in-law of the Gao family who subdued everyone in the Qi family."

"Really or not? Isn't the son-in-law of the Gao family always a coward? Besides, how can he, a helpless wife, have the ability to deal with those Martial Artists of the Qi family?"

"Who said he is powerless? I heard that he can do magic. He is very powerful."

"Knowing magic? Is it true? It's not something the Gao family is bragging about, right?"

"That's right. If he really knew magic, how could he have been looked down upon by the Gao family for so many years!"

"It doesn't matter if it's true or not, the Qi family is in trouble this time, and the Gao family probably won't be better off either!"

"Yes, the Qi family has two major backers, the government and the Celestial Human Sect Taoist temple. The Gao family may be in trouble this time!"

"Well, Qi Furen will definitely not give up after suffering such great humiliation. Alas, the Gao family might as well just kill Qi Furen."

Many people in the city are talking about this matter, but they always feel that the Gao family may be retaliated by the Qi family.

However, a few days passed, and the Gao family was safe and sound.

On the contrary, the Qi family began to behave with their tail between their legs.

He didn't even dare to go to the Gao family's shop.

This surprised the major families in the city, but they seemed to have seen some clues from it.

I couldn't help but think of many unusual things that had happened before.

Especially the case of the assassination of Magistrate Zhu.

After thinking about the many previous rumors about the war between Qingzhou City and Yuxiong Pass.

It is not difficult for the major families to see that the Gao family was able to escape the disaster, or that the person who made the Qi family fearful was the person behind Tang Yin.

And this person should be the protagonist of many legends in many recent major events - Wei Yi.

…

The imperial palace in the capital, in the royal study.

"Your Majesty, the princess has finished her marriage. There are no problems." An old eunuch said respectfully.

After hearing the old eunuch's words, Emperor Yanshun nodded. Although his face was expressionless, he always felt that something was fishy in his heart.

After all, he really didn't expect that Zhao Ziyun would be so obedient that he would actually send his sister to the palace obediently.

It seems he has changed.

Or is it that Zhao Jinsi is not as valued as rumored.

Emperor Yanshun was silent for a long time, but now that Zhao Jinsi fell into his hands, he finally had another bargaining chip to check and balance the Zhao family.

At least it's useful to control Zhao She, King of Jing'an.

Not long after, Zhao Ziyun also came to return. Emperor Yanshun pretended to say: "General Zhao has worked hard to escort the princess this time. I haven't had time to reward you for the great victory at Yuxiong Pass before. It just so happens that I will reward you too this time!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty. I don't need a reward. I only have one request?" Zhao Ziyun said seriously.

"What request?"

"I hope that my father and General Lin can go back with me to guard Yuxiong Pass. After all, without them, the soldiers are not at ease, and it has a great impact on morale. The last time the Western Barbarians invaded, if there were no experts to help, I'm afraid that Yuxiong Pass is also in danger. But Yuxiong Pass cannot always rely on the help of experts. After all, it still needs backbones like General Lin and my father to take charge. So please allow your Majesty to allow my father and General Lin to go back to guard the border." Zhao Ziyun said.

Upon hearing his words, Emperor Yanshun's eyes flashed with a gleam, and he secretly thought that Zhao Ziyun was so obedient because he wanted to exchange his sister for his father.

But of course he won't do what he wants.

If he were not worried about the border crisis, he would even directly detain Zhao Ziyun in the capital now.

"Well, by the way, does General Zhao know this expert? Who is this person?" Emperor Yanshun changed the subject.

"I really don't know him, but he should be a reclusive immortal." Zhao Ziyun said without changing his expression.

"But I heard that the master was brought here by your sister. He seems to be named Wei Yi. I also heard that this man is from Qingzhou City."

"It is true that Wei Yi was brought by my sister, but it was not him who helped us, but someone else. Wei Yi went to Yuxiong Pass just to visit his second uncle, but are he and the Taoist master... I know her, but I have no way of knowing. Regarding this matter, your Majesty can ask my sister in detail in the future."

"Oh? It's not Wei Yi? I originally wanted to reward him as well." Emperor Yanshun smiled noncommittally.

Naturally, he didn't believe what Zhao Ziyun said.

He didn't expect Zhao Ziyun to really tell him the truth.

"Your Majesty, I wonder if your Majesty can grant the request I just made?" Zhao Ziyun said again.

"Let's wait for some time. I have just ascended the throne, and I still need the assistance of King Jing'an and General Lin. I still have a lot to learn from them, but Zhao Jiajun doesn't have to worry. I have ordered General Liu and General Ma to lead troops to reinforce Yu. The pass is over, they should have set off now." Emperor Yanshun said with a smile.

Zhao Ziyun frowned slightly after hearing Emperor Yanshun's words.

Emperor Yanshun's words were clearly understood. This so-called reinforcement was just the beginning of his attempt to seize the Zhao family's military power.

"Your Majesty, can I meet my father?" Zhao Ziyun asked again.

"Of course it's no problem. Come and call King Jing'an." Emperor Yanshun said loudly, with a slightly proud smile on his face.

In his opinion, the Zhao family has moved step by step towards the cage he prepared.

Sooner or later, you will become a turtle in a urn and be left to your own devices.

Wei Yi, who was at home, also knew that Zhao Jinsi's substitute had entered the palace and passed the physical examination.

After waiting for some time, after Zhao Ziyun left the capital, he had already found an opportunity to make the substitute disappear into thin air.

He didn't want Zhao Jinsi's stand-in to be tainted by the Celestial Human Sect's puppet, even if it was a stand-in.

Of course, not only Zhao Jinsi's double entered the palace this time, but also an orange cat.

This orange cat is not Tangerine. After all, Tangerine has already developed a certain amount of magic power.

He was worried that the monks of the Celestial Human Sect would detect the magic power of Orange, which would expose his whereabouts and even bring danger to Orange.

And this orange cat has no cultivation and is just an ordinary cat.

It's just that he has been fed by himself to become stronger and stronger, and his skills are more vigorous and flexible.

Coupled with the establishment of a beast-control contract, it also has very clever wisdom.

With this orange cat here, he is equivalent to having an informant in the palace. In the future, it may be able to help him understand the situation in the palace and even monitor Emperor Yanshun's every move.

"Teacher, let's practice double cultivation again!" Zhao Jinsi hugged Wei Yi from behind and said, interrupting Wei Yi's thoughts.
