The government was sending out wives, and I ended up with a princess from the previous dynasty!

Because they were well-intentioned but caught off guard, the martial arts practitioners of the Great Jing Dynasty suffered a great loss at the very beginning!

These wandering knights, along with those from small sects and idle individuals, who usually lacked any sense of organization or discipline, were caught off guard and thrown into a panic when suddenly ambushed.

For a moment, blood flowed like a river.

Fortunately, they were numerous, and after the initial panic, they gradually regained their footing and, led by Yang Tiesheng, Mr. Poison, and some martial arts masters from the Great Jing Dynasty, began an orderly resistance.

The scene then became extremely chaotic.

People would die in battle from time to time, just like a Three Kingdoms war was unfolding.

"Organizer, shall we join the game?"

On a hilltop not far away, a group of people were standing.

This group of people were dressed in black.

But there was only one exception.

This is a woman wearing a white dress, which flutters and rustles in the wind.

Her face was covered by a white gauze, obscuring her mouth and nose, but the pair of starry eyes that were exposed had a chilling aura even colder than the millennia-old ice on a snow-capped mountain, and she exuded an aura that kept people at a distance.

Her long, jet-black hair cascaded down her head like a flowing waterfall, exuding an elegant aura, truly like a celestial maiden descending from heaven.

If Jia Daoshi were here, he would recognize that this beautiful woman is the same one he caught a glimpse of on New Year's Eve in Yilan County!

Beside this woman stood a child-like doll, none other than the Child Emperor!

The Child Emperor was in charge of the Imperial City Division.

This woman was the head of the Sixth Division.

The two of them are in charge of this matter concerning the secret treasure.

At this moment, these martial arts figures are engaged in a massive melee, and logically speaking, the Imperial City Guard should also intervene to suppress it.

However, neither of them showed any intention of making a move, and instead watched indifferently from the sidelines.

"Don't worry about them, let them fight it out. That's just how the martial world is, it's never peaceful."

The woman in white said coldly.

Tong Huang smiled faintly: "That's right. If they don't act recklessly and instead unite together, then we'll be the ones with a headache."

"The organizers are wise!"

The subordinate understood immediately, clasped his hands in greeting, and stepped aside.

"Your Majesty, you've had so many interactions with our new Chief Inspector, what are your thoughts?" the woman in white suddenly asked.

"This...it's hard to say..." Tong Huang pondered for a moment, then shook his head.

The woman in white frowned: "What do you mean by 'hard to say'?"

"It's hard to say, it's really hard to say." The Child Emperor shook his head again.

……

"boom!"

Just then, a loud bang interrupted their conversation.

On the eastern side of the island in the lake, a cliff collapsed, apparently during a battle when someone triggered a mechanism!

Then, a dark hole was revealed!

Inside the cave is a passageway leading to the deep underground!

The ground and the walls on both sides are made of high-quality blue bricks.

Just one glance is enough to tell that it was built by man.

"This is the entrance to the underground palace of the Great Qing Dynasty!"

"Hahaha! The entrance has appeared! Inside lies the treasure of the Great Qing Dynasty, let's charge!"

"Quick! We agreed before, whoever grabs it first keeps it!"

The fierce battle left all sides feeling exhausted. If the fighting continued like this, they would lose all their troops before even entering the underground palace, which would be a huge loss!

Just then, the entrance to the underground palace was opened, giving them a chance to retreat!

With a few shouts, those wandering knights and members of minor sects rushed in first!

Seeing this, the remaining major sects were unwilling to fall behind and followed suit.

That's a secret treasure of Daqing! How could we let those little Kalami get there first?

"Mr. Jia, shall we go in now?"

Wu Qingye turned to look at Jia Daoshi.

Shen Li also looked at Jia Daoshi.

They had been on the edge of the island and hadn't been drawn into the battle.

Occasionally, a few reckless martial arts figures would charge at them, but they were quickly dealt with.

Jia Daoshi narrowed his eyes and carefully examined the passage not far away.

Wu Qingye and Shen Li stood quietly to the side, without making a sound to disturb them.

However, Ming Gui was getting impatient. Seeing these martial arts practitioners rushing into the underground palace passage wave after wave, while the main characters had not yet made a move, how could Ming Gui not be anxious?

"Hey! Why aren't we leaving yet? If we don't go in soon, all the treasures inside will be looted!"

Ming Gui's tone was very unpleasant.

These past few days, whenever Shen Li had free time, she would invite Jia Daoshi to go for a soak in the hot springs, while he could only deal with those martial arts figures with a bitter expression, and he had been holding back his anger for a long time!

"The secret treasures of the Great Qing Dynasty are not easy to obtain. But since they've all gone in, let's follow them in too," Jia Daoshi said with a faint smile.

The way this passage was built reminded him of the underground palace chapter in "The Overbearing Techniques of Mechanical Engineering"—it was almost identical.

Clearly, this is another work by the Drywood School.

Since it was the work of the Drywood School, he had nothing to worry about.

"Tsk! I thought he had some brilliant insights, but in the end he just spouted some nonsense!"

Ming Gui couldn't help but complain, feeling that Jia Daoshi was just showing off.

Jia Daoshi turned his head and glanced at Ming Gui, too lazy to argue with this second-generation official.

However, Shen Li couldn't stand it anymore and said with a long face, "General Ming, if you're here to cause trouble, I will definitely report you to His Majesty when we get back!"

“Yes! General Ming, Mr. Jia is truly capable, please calm down,” Yuan Jin’er added.

Ming Gui: "..."

He never expected that these beautiful women would all speak up for Jia Daoshi!

Where does this pretty boy get such great charm?

"Mr. Jia, General Ming's words were unintentional; please don't take them to heart," Wu Qingye said slowly.

This made Ming Gui so frustrated he felt like he was going to vomit blood!

"It's alright, I won't hold it against him," Jia Daoshi said with a slight smile.

He certainly couldn't be bothered to argue.

Of course, if he were to enter the underground palace and something were to happen to this son of an official, he wouldn't care.

Ming Gui, of course, had no idea what Jia Daoshi was thinking. Although he didn't say anything more at this moment, his resentment towards Jia Daoshi had reached a new level!

No wonder, the Fifth Prince Wu Quan invited me to help deal with this kid.

He was initially quite disdainful, thinking that it was a bit bullying for a dignified young general like Ming to deal with a nobody from the martial arts world!

It seems he has no choice but to bully them now!

What's so great about this Jia Daoshi?

He did look a few years older than me and was much more mature.

But how can someone so much older be better than me?

Perhaps, in some ways, they are even younger than me!
