After my soul traveled to ancient times, I don't want to be cannon fodder

"From now on, you will stay by Master Xiao Fang's side and protect his safety!"

"I obey my orders!"

Then the two assassins saluted Fang Ping: "Greetings, Master Fang!"

"Oh, no need to be polite..." Fang Ping suddenly felt a little at a loss.

He knew Zhong Ning's abilities before, but this was the first time he realized the gap between him and her.

"You go down first, and come back with me later!" Fang Ping ordered. The two assassins immediately saluted and disappeared into the darkness again.

After watching the two men leave using Qinggong, Fang Ping was silent. They were indeed assassins, and their skills were much better than his, a landlubber.

Then he turned to Zhong Ning and asked again, "Will you treat the other people the same?"

"Hmm?" Zhong Ning raised his eyebrows slightly, then said, "No, Shen Yan has his own secret guards, and Gu Mingzhe has a lot of people protecting him. There is only one Zhou Ge, so he might need to take care of one or two."

By the way, if they hadn't lost their minds, they wouldn't have gone out without anyone after receiving an invitation letter in her name, as happened last time.

Otherwise, it would be nonsense to give them more secret guards to protect them.

"No..." Fang Ping suddenly said, "No, if this last golden finger is meant for you, then why does he have a collection of poems from our world?"

"Is there a possibility? This last golden finger is also a system..." Zhong Ning pondered for a moment, then said:

"It's probably similar to the system that attached itself to Shen Yan before. It's just that I discovered it early, and before it could take effect, it was devoured by the Deprivation Card in my body."

"And now this system is clearly coming towards me..."

"Or rather, he's trying to figure out how to clean up the people around me..."

"For example, you, Gu Mingzhe, Qi Yu..."

"Now that he's frustrated by you, he's bound to resort to extremes. So from today on, no matter where you go, you can't leave those two assassins behind..."

"Or, you can live in the side courtyard of the princess's mansion first?" Zhong Ning looked at Fang Ping and suddenly asked.

Fang Ping was stunned for a moment, his face flushed slightly. "No, that's not necessary... Those two assassins are extremely skilled in martial arts, so I should be able to handle them. Even if I can't, I can just hide in the space, and I don't think they can do anything to me..."

"Alright! It's up to you..." Zhong Ning was still feeling uneasy. "How long can you stay in this space now?"

"I've upgraded it before, so I can stay inside for at least four hours..." Fang Ping said this, then continued, "Besides, my cruise ship can still run. If things don't work, I can drive it out of the mansion and hide..."

"Not bad, there's actually this function..." Zhong Ning said this, his eyes instantly turning cold, "Then how did you get caught last time?"

Fang Ping: ………

"It just suddenly got upgraded after the last time..." Fang Ping replied hesitantly, "I don't know what happened myself..."

"Alright, everyone has different opportunities. You've been able to escape death so many times by relying on space, which can be considered as God's favor to you..."

Fang Ping scratched his head, feeling a little embarrassed. "I think so too..."

"Has your father approved the resignation letter you submitted to the court?" Zhong Ning picked up a cup of tea, took a sip, and then asked.

"No... There's a lot of discussion about me in the court and among the people right now. I heard someone impeached me in the court today, saying that I have no talent, but I hold a high position in the court, which is really a disgrace to Dayong..."

Zhong Ning chuckled and soothed him, "Don't worry about it. If you hadn't issued this statement, you would be facing accusations from the entire world. What does this little drizzle mean now?"

Fang Ping chuckled and continued, "His Majesty rejected that memorial. He said I wasn't deceiving the emperor and had already reported it. He also said I was some kind of immortal who had descended to earth to deliver poetry and music... and that I shouldn't be neglected, and so on and so forth."

Cough, cough, Zhong Ning almost coughed up the tea.

This emperor's thinking process is indeed different from that of ordinary people...

Zhong Ning had no idea that Emperor Yong was concerned about her face. After all, Fang Ping was the brother she had personally adopted.

Even if he wanted to touch Fang Ping, he had to see if she agreed first.

After all, Zhong Ning is now considered the best master in Dayong. Emperor Yong feels more confident because of her.

Even when facing the Northern Di, he did not panic.

After all, your ninth-rank master from Beidi is still in seclusion, but his master from Dayong is right beside him.

He must not lose Zhong Ning, his patron saint, and stay in Dayong!

After the two finished their conversation, they talked about the future development direction of "Dayong Weekly" and how to interview the students after the imperial examination.

After all, this time, the court took big action.

Moreover, most of them were promoted by Zhong Ning himself. If no results were achieved, it would inevitably lead to criticism from the court officials!

She didn't have to worry too much about the Military Academy, as she had already finalized the interview and training for the Imperial Envoy with General Cheng.

On the other hand, the Academy of Sciences needs to communicate with the Ministry of Industry and transfer a few people to help with the interviews. After all, some professional things still require professional people to distinguish.

In addition, we also need a few master craftsmen to come over occasionally to act as teachers and give technical advice.

Of course, Zhong Ning has also been learning physics, chemistry and other knowledge recently. She is not required to understand much herself, she can just play a guiding role.

If you can recruit a true genius, these little tips will be of great use.

"By the way, how are you doing in physics?" Zhong Ning asked.

Fang Ping paused for a moment, then said, "I only know some simple things."

"Tell me more specifically..."

Fang Ping: "It's like convex lenses... optical refraction, and the principle of leverage..."

Zhong Ning's eyes lit up, and he slapped Fang Ping on the shoulder, saying in surprise, "You know so much! I just thought you were a fake academic genius, but I didn't expect you to be a true academic genius!"

Fang Ping shuddered at the slap, but he still raised the corners of his lips slightly and said modestly, "It's nothing, it's just a small matter..."

"No, this is no small matter..." Zhong Ning firmly grasped Fang Ping's hand and said solemnly, "Teacher Fang, the Academy of Sciences needs you!"

Fang Ping: ???

Fang Ping stood up suddenly and said to Zhong Ning in disbelief, "Are you crazy? I want to enter the Academy of Sciences? With my level?"

"What's wrong with your level? I'm not asking you to be a real teacher, I just want you to keep an eye on him and occasionally attend one or two classes. If any of those people are confused, you can also give them some pointers..."

Zhong Ning smiled awkwardly and comforted him, saying that he couldn't be let go.

"But there are still many things I don't understand..." Fang Ping frowned slightly, obviously a little reluctant.

Zhong Ning quickly said, "You don't need to know a lot. We are looking for people with technical skills..."
