Yang Fan's tense body turned around the corridor until he was out of Chen Yinglong's sight. He quickly held the wall next to him with his hands, and his whole body began to tremble violently.
This is too scary!
Queen Peeping Wang was not as frightened as this time when she was attacked by magical power. At least the other party didn't notice her, but what happened to Chen Yinglong?
How could he discover the reflection of his magical power!
The aura that enveloped the Hou Mansion faded like a tide, and Yang Fan's expression kept changing.
He calmed down and was about to leave quickly, but found that Chen Yinglong's figure appeared silently in front of him, like an abyss with no bottom.
Like a silent volcano that could erupt at any time.
"Hou, Lord Hou?"
Yang Fan was shocked and wanted to run away immediately.
Chen Yinglong's gaze passed over Yang Fan's face, and his body sank as if his gaze was heavy. The ground he stepped on cracked: "Reply to the queen for me, and I will attend the appointment on time."
"Yes Yes……"
Yang Fan nodded quickly.
Seeing that Chen Yinglong stopped talking, he gritted his teeth and walked away.
Fortunately, the other party did not stop him, which made Yang Fan secretly relieved.
But he didn't notice that Chen Yinglong's eyes kept falling on his back, and there was something strange and greedy in his eyes!
"Supernatural Fruit..."
There was a trace of regret in Chen Yinglong's voice, and his figure slowly disappeared, "Unfortunately, he is not mature yet and is not worthy of becoming one of my sacred treasures. Perhaps, we can wait a little longer... I, my lord, would rather lack than waste!"
After leaving the Hou Mansion, Yang Fan glanced back with lingering fear, feeling that something was wrong with the way Chen Yinglong looked at him just now.
Thinking back to the image I saw at that moment when my magical power was reflected.
Behind Chen Yinglong, there was a huge halo of light like a god and Buddha, covering his entire body, making him look like a living god with immeasurable power!
"My father-in-law, who is so cheap, always feels like something is wrong."
Yang Fan shook his head, his mind fluctuating.
While walking, Yang Fan unknowingly came to the Dongchang Yamen in the inner city. He was about to turn around when he saw Jia Shi'an walking out of it.
Beside him, there was an old man.
This man had a gentle expression on his face, and his hair was combed extremely carefully. His silver hair was not messy at all. If you hadn't looked closely, you might have thought he was a teacher.
But Yang Fan noticed that when Jia Shi'an was walking side by side with him, he was half a body behind.
Soon, the old man got into the car and drove.
The driver drove away slowly. Jia Shi'an watched him leave, then turned and entered the Yamen.
"Strange, who is this old man?"
Yang Fan's eyes flashed and he also stepped into the Yamen.
When he walked to the door, he casually asked the guard at the door: "Who was that just now?"
"Replying to Deacon Yang, that was Zhang Shoufu just now."
"Chief assistant? Zhang Taiyue?"
Yang Fan raised his eyebrows.
With the events of "The Great Edict", this man can be said to have all the power, but when he thought of the simple carriage just now, his expression was a little strange.
Who would have thought that such a big man was sitting on such a shabby carriage!
"That's right."
The guard looked reserved.
Yang Fan nodded, and with the thought that he had come, he stepped into the Yamen.
After not coming here for a while, he found that the atmosphere here was obviously different from the past. The atmosphere was more solemn and the rules were obviously stricter.
With Yang Fan's identity, he can basically walk freely in most places in the yamen.
Therefore, in his eyes, this change became more and more obvious.
"Sir, why are you here?"
Just as he was looking around, Liu Juncheng just walked out of it. He was stunned for a moment, and then quickly saluted Yang Fan.
"Forget it!"
Yang Fan waved his hand and asked the other party to get up, "Are you here to perform a mission?"
Liu Juncheng nodded: "Most of us are here now, and many of us have even been dispatched outside the divine capital."
He hesitated for a moment and said, "It is said that you, sir, may also be among the outsiders."
"I?"
Yang Fan didn't expect that such a thing would involve him.
Liu Juncheng said: "I also heard Eunuch Tao casually mention that the foreign minister planned to arrange for deacons to go to various state roads around Shendu to monitor the place."
Yang Fan nodded.
In fact, in an environment like the ancient dynasty, there were many local wealthy families and aristocratic families, as well as Buddhist sects. It would undoubtedly be extremely difficult to implement the "Great Edict" in this environment.
Even if you leave the city of God, the effect will be greatly reduced.
Therefore, it is almost necessary to send personnel to monitor local areas. For some key places, it is even necessary to send imperial envoys to sit in.
As the leader of the secret service, Dongchang was naturally the first choice.
"However, if you really want to leave the divine capital, I'm afraid you have to make some preparations in advance."
Yang Fan felt a little heavy in his heart and asked, "Is Eunuch Tao here, or in the palace?"
"It's in the Yamen."
Liu Juncheng said quickly.
After Yang Fan sent the other party away, he went to see Tao Ying.
When he saw Tao Ying, he couldn't help but glance at him with his magical power. The demonic aura in him became darker and darker.
"See father-in-law."
He saluted calmly.
"Xiao Fanzi, have you come out of seclusion? Has your strength improved?"
Tao Ying showed great concern for Yang Fan's retreat. After all, he knew that Yang Fan had just received the benefits of Longchi and would definitely make a huge improvement in a short time.
For him who is in urgent need of employing people, he naturally hopes that his cronies will be as strong as possible.
Yang Fan said implicitly: "It has improved a little."
"A little bit?"
Tao Ying frowned and asked directly, "Has it been upgraded to eight blood transfusions?"
"have."
Yang Fan saw Tao Ying's slightly impatient expression and said immediately.
As expected, Tao Ying smiled: "Not bad."
In a short period of time, he went from seven blood exchanges to eight blood exchanges. This kid really got the blood of the Martial Saint, and he didn't know if he would have the chance to enter nine blood exchanges as soon as possible.
When the time comes, I might be able to give him a blessing.
"By the way, in mid-February, Shendu and Jinling are going to open an encore! It's a very important matter. Our family has already taken over the matter. You should prepare in advance. When the time comes, you will be responsible for the specific actions. There must be no mistakes, do you understand?"
"Yes, father-in-law."
Yang Fan breathed a sigh of relief. At least this way, he didn't have to worry about being suddenly transferred. He hesitated and asked again, "But father-in-law, how come the court suddenly fired Enke?"
Tao Ying smiled helplessly: "It's natural to select a group of people who can be used. After all, Ming Dynasty may be short of people in the future."
The lack of people is naturally due to the need to kill people.
Selecting new people will naturally fill those vacancies.
Yang Fan couldn't help but remain silent, and suddenly thought of Taizu's time. Due to the lack of officials, some criminals with lighter crimes even had to wear shackles to continue handling official duties.
Seeing Yang Fan's silence, Tao Ying thought he was worried about the difficulty of the task and couldn't help but smile.
"Don't worry, all you have to do is maintain order and prevent anyone from sabotaging Enke. Besides, this is the capital of the gods. Who dares to come here to sabotage the selection of officials in the imperial court?"
