Madam, please respect my profession.

Chapter 26: Learning Literature Cannot Save the People of Da Zhou

Chu Huai was looking at his subordinate, and for a moment he couldn't tell whether he was joking or serious.

After a while of silence.

Chu Huaizheng said faintly: "Guanqi, you did a good job. The organization needs talents like you."

"It's all thanks to your good leadership." Lu Zhan flattered Chu Huaizheng readily. Chu Huaizheng was very bureaucratic and had to flatter him when speaking to him.

Chu Huaizheng was very satisfied, but he did not show too much joy. He just said, "Well, the gift of the Grand Master is in the hands of my daughter Wan Tang. You can go to the study to find her. But she has a bad temper. If you see her angry, just keep silent."

"I understand." Lu Zhan bowed and retreated.

He had heard rumors about Chu Wantang many times, and this time he was finally going to meet her in person.

A werewolf who has condensed a heart sword at the age of six or seven has an enviable talent.

However, Wei Zhao is also at the peak of the Mortal Realm. Although he is a few years older than Chu Wantang, he is also a member of the Chu family.

Are all the Chu family members so talented? They are all young talents, except for Director Chu. It is said that he can reach this level without the blessing of the elixir given by the Grand Master.

This made Lu Zhan even more curious about the Grand Master and his apprentice.

The Grand Master was far away, but his disciples were about to meet him. Lu Zhan had a feeling that when Chu Huaizheng mentioned Chu Wantang, his tone was quite complicated, as if the relationship between father and daughter was not harmonious, but rather subtle.

...

While thinking, Lu Zhan followed his colleagues to the back garden of the Demon Suppression Bureau.

There is a magnificent pavilion in front, flowers, trees and rockery in the back, and the study is hidden behind the green trees.

When they reached here, his colleagues stopped and let Lu Zhan go alone.

Lu Zhan walked along the winding bluestone slab. Before he passed through the rockery, he heard the sound of breaking air coming from the front, as if someone was practicing sword. He couldn't help but take a few quick steps and see the scenery ahead clearly.

A gentle breeze blows, and clothes flutter.

The gorgeous weeping crabapples are in full bloom. A girl in a gray and white dress stands there holding a sword. She is slender and elegantly dressed. Her long black hair is pinned up with a wooden hairpin. She is dressed so plain and dull, and her cold temperament is like ice and snow, but her face makes her instantly bright and lively.

She is so beautiful. In terms of appearance, she is almost as beautiful as me, Lu.

Unfortunately, she is still young and her figure is still in the budding stage.

Young people love to ride horses and whip to climb to the top of the mountains. There is no challenge in a peaceful time, but her status and position can make up for the deficiency. If he marries her, he can study the monsters in Jinling Prison at will.

Lu Zhan hated people who hung out with rich women the most in his life, but when he looked at Miss Chu in front of him, several books involuntarily came to his mind: "The Cold Rich Woman Falls in Love with Me", "101 Strategies to Conquer Rich Women", and "The Pretentious Handsome Man Who Plays Hard to Get".

It's not that I, Lu, have no moral integrity. It's just that in this era of imperial power, it's not easy to raise a child alone, and the soul is crying out for food.

At this moment, suddenly a sword energy came towards him, and countless crabapple petals flew up, wrapped up by the powerful true qi.

"???"

What are you doing, pretty girl? The strong power made Lu Zhan feel awe-inspiring. He was indeed an invincible existence at the same level.

Lu Zhan wanted to dodge, but the opponent caught him off guard. Due to the difference in realm, he subconsciously reacted a little slower, so that when the sword energy was already in front of him, he was still standing there.

"receive!"

The extremely bright and beautiful little beauty let out a light sigh, and the powerful sword energy came to an abrupt stop. The crabapple petals wrapped in true energy fell slowly and rotated like flowers scattered by a fairy.

Chu Wantang looked at the young man in front of him, a look of amazement appearing in his clear eyes.

The young man in black tights stood tall and straight like a pine tree, with a handsome face, red lips and white teeth, much prettier than the girl. His long black hair was tied up with a hair crown. Standing under the falling petals of the crabapple tree, he looked indescribably handsome and elegant.

"Are you Lu Zhan?" Chu Wantang put away the sword in her hand, and a cunning look unique to a young girl appeared between her eyebrows, which was completely different from the cold look just now.

"Lu Zhan from Jiangning Demon Suppression Bureau, nice to meet Miss Chu." Lu Zhan said with a fist salute.

"No wonder you are so calm, you do have some courage." Chu Wantang clapped her hands, twisted her waist and walked closer, her big watery eyes filled with praise and curiosity.

"Because I know Miss Chu won't hurt me..." Is it possible that I can't avoid it... Lu Zhan complained in his heart. This was a path he had never imagined. As expected, masters never need to pretend to be awesome, others will automatically fill in the blanks.

Chu Wantang's performance was completely different from what Lu Zhan had imagined. At first glance, she was a cold beauty, but unexpectedly, she became lively and charming in the blink of an eye.

Moreover, Director Chu said that she had a bad temper... Lu Zhan smiled in response and did not dare to offend.

"You're too modest!" Chu Wantang pouted and introduced herself: "My name is Chu Wantang, and my courtesy name is Tinglan."

"Lu Zhan, courtesy name Guanqi." Lu Zhan said, "I am here to listen to the Grand Archbishop's teachings."

Lu Zhan really wanted to say that he was here to collect the money, but the smell of money could easily corrupt his image and personality at the moment, so he changed his statement to a more euphemistic one.

Chu Wantang smiled and said, "Yeah, did you write the proposal to kill the Wedding Dress Skeleton yourself?"

"Guaranteed genuine." Lu Zhan said, feeling a little worried. Could it be that the writing was too exaggerated and not up to standard?

However, Chu Wantang's next words made Lu Zhan feel relieved.

"You are a night doctor, how come you can kill the Wedding Dress Skeleton?" Chu Wantang asked what was on his mind: "Night doctors are mostly healing systems."

Lu Zhan said sternly: "More often does not mean certain, just like the elegant Confucian cultivators, they will also raise their fists to convince others with reason."

Chu Wantang seemed to be thinking about something, but did not continue to ask. Some things could not be answered by asking further.

She said thoughtfully, "Hmm...it's too late now, why don't you stay overnight? I'll convey the Archbishop's instructions tomorrow."

Lu Zhan said cautiously: "It's not convenient..."

When I came, I was not told that I had to stay overnight to collect the money. As everyone knows, things like collecting awards are more complicated than they seem.

"What's the inconvenience? The Demon Suppression Bureau is so big, there are many guest rooms." Chu Wantang blinked her watery eyes: "You don't want to take advantage of the night to hurry on your way, do you? Aren't you afraid that your money will be robbed in the middle of the night?"

Of course I'm not afraid, I'll just hang on the wall... Just as Lu Zhan was about to say this, he saw Chu Wantang turning her sword vaguely, and then Lu Zhan understood what she meant.

Although he didn't know why, it was obvious that Chu Wantang really wanted to keep him. They were all colleagues and there should be no ill will... Maybe the little beauty had other things to say but just couldn't bring herself to say it for the time being.

Lu Zhan thought for a moment and compromised: "Okay, then I will return early tomorrow morning."

"Okay, I just happen to have something to ask you..." Chu Wantang smiled brightly, with a bit of the delicate tone of a girl, but before she could finish, someone behind her came to report: "Miss, Zhuge Chen is in trouble."
