Chapter 350 Meeting the Saint
The first rays of morning sunlight shine into the room.

Bai Yuan stretched comfortably.

Who said that the ancients didn’t know how to enjoy life?

This room, this bed, and this girl at the front desk are much better than those big hotels in my previous life!
It was a really comfortable sleep.

Bai Yuan got up and then dressed himself.

He first went to Fang E's room.

The little girl Fang'e was in the next room. Maybe she was too tired from playing yesterday and was still sleeping at noon.

Just as Bai Yuan went downstairs, he saw a familiar figure - Yue Xiaobai.

Yue Xiaobai still had the same cold face as always.

He was sitting in a corner on the first floor of Zhaixing Tower, with a pot of tea and a few side dishes on the table.

Although he didn't even look at Bai Yuan, Bai Yuan was extremely sure that this guy must be looking for him.

Unlike Lingzhou, Yue Xiaobai is extremely famous in Kyoto.

His mere appearance attracted the attention of the people around him, and all the tables within ten meters around him were empty.

Bai Yuan smiled faintly, ignoring the gazes of the people around him, and sat opposite Yue Xiaobai.

"Xiaobai, aren't you going to Xiyue?"

As he spoke, he skillfully picked up a pair of chopsticks, picked up the side dishes on the table, and poured himself a cup of tea.

Seeing this scene, the diners at Zhaixing Tower all widened their eyes.

Everyone in Kyoto knows that Yue Xiaobai, the Xiyue Divine Sword, is a person who should not be approached by strangers. Anyone who dared to be so arrogant in front of him would have been chopped down by a sword long ago. But today, Yue Xiaobai was particularly tolerant of the man and had no intention of drawing his sword at all.

The people around were talking about it and speculating about the man's identity.

The people of Kyoto love discussing these major events in the court and the underworld, but no one knows Bai Yuan's identity.

This made the diners even more curious.

Yue Xiaobai said: "After all the fighting, you are still the best at maintaining the sword."

No hypocrisy, straight to the point, he is still the same Xiaobai.

Bai Yuan chuckled.

Obviously, Yue Xiaobai had not just arrived in Kyoto, but had been waiting for him in Kyoto.

"how did you find me?"

Bai Yuan was a little curious.

He had never told anyone about his visit to Kyoto, so how did Yue Xiaobai know about it?
Yue Xiaobai still had an icy face, and was only willing to say a few more words when facing Bai Yuan: "I went to the Ministry of Personnel to check."

"."

Bai Yuan was speechless.

When he entered the city, he showed his documents to the guards at the city gate. I think it was at that time that the Ministry of Personnel learned of his arrival.

Kyoto has no secrets. It's true.

Bai Yuan smiled faintly. Originally, he had no intention of hiding his whereabouts. Since the Ministry of Personnel already knew about it, he had to go there. He couldn't let the Ministry of Personnel down too hard in the face.

"Xiaobai, why don't you come with me to the Ministry of Personnel?"

"Fight with me."

"make a deal."

Bai Yuan agreed readily.

Ever since he had achieved some success in his Divine Palace Technique, he had never fought with anyone, so Yue Xiaobai was a good target.

He went upstairs again and had a few words with Fang E.

The little girl was sleeping soundly. She just hummed in a daze, then turned over and fell asleep again.

Bai Yuan and Yue Xiaobai left the Zhaixing Tower.

He was not too worried about leaving Fang E alone in Zhaixing Tower. Zhaixing Tower became the best building in Kyoto not only because of the large rooms and soft beds.

Bai Yuan was not familiar with the capital, but fortunately he had an acquaintance, Yue Xiaobai.

He quickly followed Yue Xiaobai to the central axis of Kyoto - Xuanwu Avenue.

Bai Yuan swore that this was the widest street he had ever seen in his life. The ten-lane and twelve-lane roads in his previous life were weak compared to Xuanwu Avenue.

Xuanwu Avenue is half a mile wide, with the six ministries and important departments of the imperial court on its left and right.

There were almost no people on the huge Xuanwu Avenue.

No commoner dared to come here casually. If they offended the officials in the court, they would be in big trouble.

At the end of Xuanwu Avenue, there stands a tall city wall with red walls and golden roof, which is extremely magnificent. That is the imperial city.

Yue Xiaobai brought Bai Yuan to the government office where the Ministry of Personnel was located with ease.

The Ministry of Personnel is very close to the imperial palace, almost at the foot of the palace wall.

It is located in the second row of Xuanwu Avenue, which shows the status of the Ministry of Personnel among the six ministries.

The Minister of Personnel has always been the head of the six ministers, almost second only to the three highest officials.

Yue Xiaobai and Bai Yuan walked straight through the gate of the Ministry of Personnel. The two guards standing outside the gate seemed to be familiar with Yue Xiaobai and had no intention of stopping them.

If Bai Yuan came here alone, he would probably be interrogated repeatedly.

The Ministry of Personnel is very large. According to a rough estimate, it has at least ten courtyards, like a maze.

The front yard is very large, with more than a dozen rooms around it. From time to time, officials in official uniforms walk out with hurried steps, just like workers in a company.

Yue Xiaobai took Bai Yuan into the backyard and finally entered a room.

"Old man, I've brought the person to you."

After saying that, he found a seat and sat down.

Bai Yuan was a little surprised.

There was an elegant old man in the room, who looked to be about sixty years old. However, for a martial artist with a high level of cultivation, one’s age could not be determined from his appearance. It was very possible that the old man in front of him was already two hundred years old.

Kyoto is full of hidden talents, not to mention the Ministry of Personnel, which is the head of the Six Ministries.

The old man saw Bai Yuan and Yue Xiaobai and laughed, "This is Lord Bai. Please take a seat. I am Guo Yingru, the Minister of Personnel. It is the year of the imperial examination. Minister Chu is away, and before he left, he asked me to receive Lord Bai."

Bai Yuan clasped his fists and said, "It turns out to be Minister Guo. I have heard of you for a long time."

The Vice Minister of the Ministry of Personnel is an absolutely powerful person. Although he is also of the third rank, he is of the third rank while the Vice Minister is of the third rank.

But the political status is very different.

Not to mention that local officials need to be demoted by half a rank before entering the capital, it would be difficult for him, the general of Lingzhou, who lives in a remote corner, to be considered a fourth-rank official in the capital.

If not, how could Chen Danian, an idle official in Jiangnan, hold such an important position as the governor of a province.

It’s because Lingzhou is considered a low-class place in the eyes of the Central Plains.

If the Jiedushi had not been set up in Lingzhou and Taibao Yan Shaoan had not been in charge personally, it would have been impossible for Kong Sen to be transferred from Guanglu Temple to Lingzhou to be the prefect.

Of course, Bai Yuan himself is an exception.

The geniuses on the Hidden Dragon List are always popular no matter where they are.

Guo Yingru is experienced in his work and impeccable in his dealings with others.

Bai Yuan had just sat down when he had already taken care of all the matters.

Although Bai Yuan's current official position has not yet been determined, the Ministry of Personnel still assigned Bai Yuan the rank of a third-rank official and did not dare to deduct any salary.

Bai Yuan looked at the eight-room mansion in Kyoto on the list. The dream that had not been realized in his previous life had actually come true in Xuanyang.

If you want to get such a house in the core area of ​​Kyoto, besides having money, status is more important.

Guo Yingru noticed Bai Yuan's satisfaction and smiled slightly.

"Master Bai, His Majesty can't wait to see you. How about I take the initiative and go to the palace to see him tomorrow?"
