CHAPTER 59: CHAPTER 58: YOUR YOUNG DAUGHTER IS VERY CLINGY

The adviser next to him pretended not to see this situation, but inside, he was panicking.

The Defense Department’s people and the Celestial Capital Department’s people were tearing into each other!

Damn.

It’s really thrilling.

However, just as Chen Guangsheng was about to speak further, Yuchi beside him started to speak with a smile.

"Actually, Miss Xun has always wanted to leave Xufu Town. After all, Xufu Town is still just a small town, incomparable to a big city."

"Unfortunately, I’ve been begging her to stay."

Yuchi’s face was very calm; he smiled as if he were a harmless, likable young boy.

What kind of evil schemes could a young boy have?

In fact, the moment Yuchi met Chen Guangsheng, he saw this.

It seemed that the relationship between Chen Guangsheng’s Celestial Capital Department and Xun Xian’s Defense Department was not very good?

Was there even some conflict?

"Oh?" Chen Guangsheng looked at Yuchi with a smile, "What do you mean by that? Why are you forcefully asking Patrol Xun to stay?"

The adviser looked at Yuchi, then at Xun Xian, puzzled, "Do these two really have this kind of relationship?"

Xun Xian also frowned at Yuchi, and a phrase instantly popped into her mind.

"Have you asked me to stay?"

"Why don’t I know?"

Upon hearing Chen Guangsheng’s question, Yuchi formed a basic guess in his heart.

Not just the Celestial Capital Department and the Defense Department, perhaps the Imperial Decree Department, which the adviser is part of, their relationship is also not that great?

"Mainly at home there’s a younger sister, Wei Ximo, my brother’s child. This little Ximo and Miss Xun get along very well."

"They hit it off right from the start."

"The little girl, about five or six years old, cries and fusses if she doesn’t sleep with Miss Xun every night."

"It’s precisely because of this, that I asked Miss Xun to stay."

"Probably when little Ximo gets a bit older, she’ll be able to leave Miss Xun’s embrace."

Yuchi explained with a wry smile.

He also looked at Xun Xian with some apologies, his expression really full of sincerity.

Xun Xian wore a surprised expression, "Can he really just gloss over it like that?"

Adviser, "Is it true or not?"

Well, true or not, since Yuchi said it, it must be true.

Chen Guangsheng’s face transitioned quite naturally, "I see, nephew, it was my hasty mistake, I wasn’t aware of this detail!"

"Haha, no need to worry about it, uncle. Miss Xun is also a person with a broad mind, she wouldn’t mind."

"Right?"

"Miss Xun." Yuchi looked at Xun Xian.

How could Xun Xian not understand by now?

She folded her arms, tilted her head, "So can you blame me for this? Your young daughter is very clingy."

"Haha, it’s truly because Miss Xun is an extraordinary person."

Yuchi explained with a smile, "Our Wei Family are mere mortals without Spirit Roots, generally lacking masculinity."

"The young ones still lack a sense of security."

"That’s why she’s attached to Miss Xun."

Xun Xian snorted coldly, outwardly saying nothing, but inwardly she felt somewhat satisfied.

Not bad.

Although Yuchi is a bit sneaky, preferring to use his sister, other young ladies don’t mind, and neither do I.

And now being able to stand out and talk and laugh is a very good attitude.

Turns out he can not only network.

Whether Chen Guangsheng truly believed it or not, he didn’t show it.

He apologized, "Apologies, Miss Xun, my mother passed away."

"Sometimes I get somewhat dazed, please don’t mind."

"It’s fine," Xun Xian replied calmly, "My father also died, I killed him."

Chen Guangsheng, "?"

Is this woman not a madwoman? What kind of horrendous words are these?

Filial piety is the foremost virtue, and this person is even more dutiful than me?

What’s going on!

"Haha, let’s not talk about that."

Yuchi shifted the attention outside the carriage.

He added with a laugh, "In the future, if uncle needs anything in town, you can directly tell me."

"We are one family."

"No need to have any grudges."

Chen Guangsheng nodded with satisfaction.

Suddenly remembering something, he took out a mask from his sleeve: "Nephew, this is for you."

"Uncle, what is this?" Yuchi asked, puzzled.

The mask was oval, a familiar copper mask with indentations.

Holding it, Yuchi detected the unique scent of oxidized red copper, and green spots had already appeared on it.

Oh well.

Red copper oxidizes in a humid environment, forming basic copper carbonate, commonly known as copper patina.

This stuff is toxic, right?

Little did Chen Guangsheng and the others know what Yuchi was thinking.

The adviser, upon seeing the mask, couldn’t help but shout out: "The token of the Celestial Capital Department."

"Wearing the mask grants entry into the Celestial Capital Department!"

Xun Xian also understood, she frowned at Chen Guangsheng, who was all smiles.

She was disgruntled!

So the Celestial Capital Department came to recruit Yuchi?

A bunch of dogs!

Getting into the Celestial Capital Department is very hard, the only way is to wear the token and then have a chance to take the exam.

Yuchi instantly understood.

Got it.

This familiar copper mask is the "invitation code."

A common trick in websites or games, also known as the "pretentious code," or "show-off code."

Everyone’s in the same business, yet they cover it up as if they’re aloof.

In reality, they’re eagerly wishing for customers.

And getting the pretentious code would make immature kids feel superior.

Then these kids become tools to attack other sites.

Old trick, the only option when there’s no other way.

Either it embellishes a success, or it could spell trouble in later years, with corpses growing green hair.

It all depends on one’s inherent strength.

Of course, there are exceptions.

Some special codes are quite exciting.

So what type is the Celestial Capital Department?

First, pretentious?

Second, competent?

Third, powerful and frightening?

Yuchi felt it was the second stage, appearing somewhat competent.

Yet no matter what, he feigned shock.

He solemnly accepted the familiar copper mask, "Uncle, doing this, how can I accept?"

As he spoke, he hid it well.

"Haha, no problem!"

"Nothing to be embarrassed about!"

"This is just a small gift from your uncle, as long as you like it."

Chen Guangsheng noticed Yuchi’s small gesture and laughed heartily, "In the future, you can visit the Celestial Capital Department in the big city if you have time."

"The women of the Celestial Capital Department are all beautiful and lovely."

"If you’re looking for a reliable wife or a confidante, it must be our Celestial Capital Department."

Yuchi grinned, his expression naive.

In the future, everyone in the carriage, except Xun Xian, was smiling with hidden motives.

Until they finally parted ways, it was almost dinner time.

Indeed.

They even went to the Lamp Flower Tower for a meal in between, where the shopkeeper, wiping tears, gave them a warm welcome.

"Oh, my dear little ancestor Yuchi, why do you bring people more fearsome each time?"

"How does this ancestor have such good relations with these people?"

"Completely incomprehensible!"

Crying aside, smiling aside, these people were clearly distinct, yet intertwined, he didn’t dare offend them.

All the good food and drink were brought out.
