Martial: I Started The Technological Revolution In Ancient Times

Xiao Yun curled his lips and said, "You're really hopeless. It wasn't a loss for you to die."    

    

"Die? I don't think so."    

    

Wu Xi said, "My family will spend money to make arrangements. At most, they will be exiled."    

    

His voice clearly became nervous.    

    

Xiao Yun laughed and said, "Exiled? If the one in charge of the three dukes wasn't Zhao Wuji... Not only will you not be killed, you will also not be exiled. At most, you would be demoted to a lower rank and could even continue to be an official. But with Zhao Wuji around, your life will be in danger! "    

    

" This... Why is this happening?"    

    

"You don't understand?"    

    

"This..."    

    

Wu Xi was shocked for a second. He lowered his head and tried to think about it.    

    

When he thought of this, sweat flowed down from his forehead, and his expression became more and more shocked.    

    

That's right, if Third Duke was not the one in charge, they would know how to advance and retreat. They would not force the Cabinet to be too ruthless, and they would also work hard to maintain a balance in front of His Majesty.    

    

But Zhao Wuji was different. This guy did not care at all. He was not even worried that he would stand too high and be kicked down by His Majesty. If there was a chance to take another step, how could he let it go?    

    

Taking the opportunity to crush the Cabinet to death was something he was happy to see!    

    

But this way, Wu Xi would be in trouble.    

    

He immediately looked up and said with a trembling voice, "I know. Young Master Xiao also has face in front of His Majesty. If you can talk, you can talk to His Majesty. I will donate all my assets! As long as you don't die, I will do anything! "    

    

Xiao Yun sighed and said, "Are you stupid? Don't look at me sitting here. My current situation is not much better than yours. I was also locked up. It was just that I ran out to see you today. As for your family background, to be honest, as long as you die... If you rob a family, won't those things still belong to the Imperial Court? Do you really think that those riches are the bargaining chips that will allow you to live? "    

    

" This... "    

    

Wu Xi, who had just stood up, suddenly sat down again.    

    

He did not sit properly again and fell to the ground.    

    

He stared blankly at Xiao Yun, and his eyes were filled with shock and despair.    

    

As expected, even someone as greedy as him would be so afraid of death.    

    

"Young Master Xiao, save me!"    

    

He shouted loudly.    

    

Although there was no proof that Xiao Yun could save him, he still shouted.    

    

If it was someone else standing in front of him, he would not say such a thing.    

    

It was very strange.    

    

Even he himself felt that it was very strange.    

    

Perhaps it was because Xiao Yun had turned the rotten into the miraculous again and again.    

    

Xiao Yun sighed and said, "Actually, I'm not bored enough to come and see a dead person who doesn't really have much of a relationship with me. Furthermore, in your current situation... It has something to do with me too. If it wasn't for me asking His Majesty to choose someone like you... Actually, you won't be able to come into contact with those disaster relief money, and you wouldn't have ended up like this. "    

    

"Yes, that's right! That's right! "    

    

Wu Xi immediately agreed, but he immediately felt that something was not right. He quickly said, "No, no, no. How can you blame Young Master Xiao? It was Young Master Xiao who gave me a chance to help the country and the people. It was just that I did not live up to my expectations. He actually gave me a chance to help the country and the people. ... Sigh! "    

    

Xiao Yun nodded his head in satisfaction.    

    

Just as Wu Xi said the first sentence, he really wanted to turn around and leave.    

    

Such a guy... What a waste!    

    

However, he couldn't help but think that if he didn't have this guy, the disaster relief mission wouldn't have gone so smoothly.    

    

If he hadn't been busy with his own matters, the most difficult time for the disaster relief operation would have passed. He should have asked His Majesty to summon this fellow back.    

    

Even though he knew that he was a dog that ate sh * t, he still put a huge pile of sh * t in front of him. How could he hope that he wouldn't eat it?    

    

"There is a deal that requires you to lose your rank, but it will allow you to survive and become very rich. What do you think?"    

    

"Ah?"    

    

Wu Xi could not react in time.    

    

Xiao Yun sighed and said, "He committed such a big crime and was arrested. The order was issued again. The whole world knew about it. Now, almost everyone has forgotten about your contribution to the disaster relief efforts. They will only point at your spine and scold you. It's inevitable for you to have a bad reputation for ten thousand years. You have to lose your official body... no matter what. "    

    

He thought that Wu Xi was concerned about the official position.    

    

But who knew this guy asked instead, "Will he really be very rich? Not only will he be alive, but he will also be able to earn money?"    

    

"Uh..."    

    

Xiao Yun's eyes twitched violently. He smiled bitterly and said, "I have really underestimated you. That's right. You can live and you can also be very rich. But this is all in the future. For today's plan, you must protect your own life."    

    

"Naturally, you have to protect your life first. Naturally, it should be like this."    

    

Wu Xi immediately nodded his head. He looked at Xiao Yun as if he had seen a life-saving straw.    

    

Xiao Yun thought for a moment and said, "You should stay here. I will give it a try. Let's see if I can save your life. But if you want to come out... I'll have to wait for a long time... Hmm, are you used to living here?"    

    

" What do you think? "    

    

Wu Xi showed a bitter face and spread out his hands. It could not be more obvious.    

    

Xiao Yun couldn't help but smile. He stood up, turned around, and waved outside.    

    

The guard standing outside the corridor immediately jogged over and asked, "Young Master Xiao, what other orders do you have?"    

    

"This person won't die for the time being. Don't treat him as someone who will die, but as someone who will... En, impoverished Pavilion Elder! Since this young master has said so much, you should understand, right? "    

    

The guard was stunned.    

    

He immediately asked in a low voice, "Is what Young Master Xiao said true?"    

    

"Is there a need for me to lie to you?"    

    

"Then thank you for Young Master Xiao's reminder!"    

    

The guard hurriedly bowed to the end. If it wasn't for his duty, he would probably have knelt down.    

    

Their attitude towards Wu Xi previously was very bad. Of course, it wasn't just their attitude that was bad.    

    

This was naturally because they predicted that Wu Xi would die.    

    

But now, they heard that Wu Xi wouldn't die. Then... if Wu Xi could still maintain his official position and wait for him to come out... His identity as the Pavilion Elder was obvious, and he wanted to take revenge for what happened earlier. Naturally, it would be perfectly normal. At that time, they would be completely finished!    

    

How could they not be afraid? How could they not thank Xiao Yun?    

    

Xiao Yun nodded his head, then waved at Wu Xi and swaggered out of the Imperial Prison.    

    

After exiting the Imperial Prison, he narrowed his eyes and looked at the sky. He turned his head and snatched someone's horse. The inner city rode on a horse and galloped across the city towards the Imperial Palace.    

    

When he arrived at the entrance of the imperial palace, there were already dozens of soldiers chasing him from behind. Some of them even took out their bow and crossbow and surrounded him.    

    

Riding a horse was not allowed in the inner city. This rule had been set here for many years, and no one had ever violated it.    

    

Now that they had encountered it, those Imperial Guards in the capital didn't even have the time to react.    

    

When they understood the current situation and rushed forward, it was already too late. They could only hang behind and eat dust.    

    

It wasn't easy for them to wait until the other party got off the horse. They wanted to stab the "slayer" into a hornet's nest as soon as possible.    

    

But when they saw Xiao Yun's appearance, the expressions on their faces became much more interesting.    

    

"This... Why is it you? Young Master Xiao, why are you riding a horse in the inner city? You are looking for our happiness... "    

    

One of the Imperial Guards said with a bitter face.    

    

Xiao Yun turned his head and saw that it wasn't an outsider.    

    

Leng Feng!    

    

Xiao Yun immediately laughed and said, "I said I would give you some credit, and you got it. Logically speaking, you should be promoted to three ranks now, right? Why are you still patrolling here?"    

    

Leng Feng looked around awkwardly and said, "It's not bad to be promoted to three ranks, but it's actually just one rank. In name, it's the commander of ten thousand men, but this is the Imperial Guards. Where did the army of ten thousand come from? In the end, I could only do the patrolling work. "    

    

Xiao Yun frowned slightly.    

    

The chief commander of the Imperial Guards had come out to patrol? Even if it was impossible for Imperial Guards to let him manage ten thousand troops, his rank was still there. How could it be his turn to work under the sun?    

    

His position was like a flag on the ground. He was a rank three official. He could be considered half a feudal official if he were to guard an area.    

    

Patrol?    

    

It seemed like Leng Feng was caught, the Xiao family was demoted, and his majesty's attitude towards the Leng family made him feel uncomfortable.    

    

"Aiya, Young Master Xiao, don't just talk about me. What are you trying to do? Running horses in the inner city in broad daylight, and letting so many people see it. This... How am I supposed to behave?"    

    

According to his duty, he was going to arrest people.    

    

But Xiao Yun was also someone he could catch?
