Thousand-Year Blood Ginseng
Prince Jing's Estate!
Guided by the steward, Qin Yan arrived at a pavilion in the back garden of the Prince's Mansion.
A distinguished middle-aged man was already waiting there.
"Brother-in-law!" "Greetings, Your Highness!"
Qin Yan and Zuo Qifeng bowed to the royal relative before them!
Prince Jing smiled gently at the visitor and said, "There's no need to worry."
As he spoke, he pointed to the spot beside him.
"Imperial Inspector Qin, please sit down beside me!"
The other party's enthusiastic attitude surprised Qin Yan, who then sat down next to Prince Jing.
"I am truly flattered that His Highness Prince Jing would take the time out of his busy schedule to invite me."
Qin Yan smiled!
"I have long heard that the Demon Suppression Inspector of Youshan Prefecture is young and capable, and has slain countless demons and evil spirits that wreak havoc within the territory of Youshan Prefecture."
Such achievements truly earn my admiration!
Prince Jing was not just being polite; after learning about Qin Yan's past, he truly admired this young man.
Since becoming Demon Suppression Commandant, Fang's efficiency in slaying demons and monsters has been astonishing.
He naturally had some understanding of the Demon-Suppressing Bureau.
This kind of character, which is willing to do anything to eliminate evil spirits, naturally makes him a good official who cares about the people.
This was not his evaluation, but rather the evaluation given to Qin Yan by the people of Qinghe Town and Youshan Prefecture.
With a sincere heart, and putting the people first!
Qin Yan's reputation in Youshan Prefecture is probably something he himself is not quite aware of.
With the continuous appearance of evil spirits, the Demon-Suppressing Bureau was fully revealed to the people of the world.
Zhao Zhen Qin Yan, and with the promotion of the Demon-Suppressing Bureau and the Prefect, his existence became well known to the people of Youshan Prefecture.
The reason for doing this is naturally for political achievements!
An ambitious young man who finds joy in slaying evil spirits and demons every day.
If we don't promote such figures, then those of us in official positions might as well quit!
For various reasons, Qin Yan's reputation is rising at an astonishing rate in Youshan Prefecture!
The more Prince Jing learned about Qin Yan, the more Qin Yan he found him!
They wanted to recruit this person to their ranks.
As for Qin Yan's infamous reputation, he cared even less; what hero wasn't forged from countless bones?
Moreover, those people from Uncut Jade Monastery brought this upon themselves, so they have no one to blame but themselves.
The three men drank and chatted in the pavilion.
As Prince Jing chatted, he increasingly felt that Qin Yan was a man of Stratagem, not just a reckless brute.
In particular, the other party has unique insights into people's livelihood and highly praised the vigorous development of commerce and the construction of roads.
This made Prince Jing feel as if he had found a kindred spirit.
"With Qin Xunshi's current strength, in my opinion, it's a real waste of his talents to stay in the Demon-Suppressing Bureau."
Why not join the Iron River Army? I will recommend you; you'll at least become a Commandant!
Prince Jing, recognizing the potential of talented individuals, issued his own recruitment notice!
Upon hearing this, Zuo Qifeng, who was standing to the side, was immediately filled with envy. His brother-in-law was really generous!
The speed of promotion from the Principal Sixth Rank to the Principal Fourth Rank is extraordinary.
Even Qin Yan was shaken upon hearing this; anyone else would probably have immediately pledged allegiance to him!
Prince Jing's influence had actually infiltrated the army, and he had heard of the Iron River Army before.
They are the elite of the Southern Army, responsible for guarding the Southern Border and fighting against the monsters in the forest all year round. They are truly a hardened and bloodthirsty army.
The entire army numbered no more than 30,000, but its actual combat strength was probably no less than that of a local garrison of 100,000.
"Your Highness's kindness is Qin Yan!"
Upon hearing this, Zuo Qifeng's face froze instantly. Even Prince Jing hadn't expected Qin Yan to refuse so readily.
"Could it be that Inspector Qin is dissatisfied?"
Prince Jing frowned slightly, looking at Qin Yan with a puzzled expression.
"Your Highness has misunderstood."
Qin Yan shook his head slightly, his expression extremely solemn. "I am not doing this because of my official position, but because of my duty to the Demon-Suppressing Bureau!"
The prince may never have witnessed a procession of a hundred ghosts at night, a bizarre and frenzied Slaughter of the common people.
A single zombie can wipe out an entire village or town.
A monster that emerged from the mountains left the people of a county town helpless, forcing countless people to relocate.
The death toll is in the thousands.
I joined the Demon-Suppressing Bureau so that the people of the world could live a peaceful and tranquil life.
Actually, I'm not interested in being an official.
Prince Jing was stunned upon hearing this. Why did this guy seem to be glowing?
"The Qin envoy possesses a pure and innocent heart, which truly earns my admiration."
Prince Jing took a deep breath, a radiant smile spreading across his face.
She was not upset by Qin Yan's rejection.
If any of those other seasoned officials dared to say that, they would definitely make things difficult for that person when they got back.
But the boy in front of me was only fifteen years old, with clear eyes that spoke of his lofty aspirations.
"If all officials in the land were like Inspector Qin, there probably wouldn't be so many famines and rebellions!"
Prince Jing felt a pang of sadness.
As an ambitious prince, he increasingly appreciated Qin Yan's worth.
"This person will surely become a pillar of the Great Li Dynasty in the future."
Prince Jing held Qin Yan in extremely high regard.
After the banquet...
The guests and hosts had a wonderful time!
"Today, I witnessed Inspector Qin single-handedly kill three Qi Refining Realm the Qi Refining stage. Could it be that Inspector Qin has already stepped into the Xiantian Martial Realm!"
Prince Jing, feeling a bit curious, couldn't help but ask.
"No!" Qin Yan said without changing his expression, "I was trapped in the Underworld for more than two months, which wasted a lot of time."
He was able to kill those three simply because he was exceptionally fast, using speed to catch them off guard.
Prince Jing's pupils contracted slightly. If the other party had not broken through to the Xiantian Realm, how astonishing must their talent be?
It's not just talent for cultivation, but also talent for combat.
Killing Xiantian before they've even broken through is like killing a dog.
If someone were to become Innate Martial Artist, that would be incredible.
Such a genius should absolutely not be missed!
Prince Jing's eyes gradually burned with desire. He clapped his hands, and immediately a guard appeared before the three of them carrying a box.
"Inspector Qin, you might as well open it and take a look."
Prince Jing pointed to the box with a smile.
Qin Yan's heart stirred. He looked at the box that was already placed in front of him, opened it, and immediately a fresh fragrance of herbs and trees wafted out.
Inside was a ginseng root, its entire body as red as jade!
"This is probably a Thousand-Year Blood Ginseng!"
"Indeed!" Prince Jing explained with a smile, "I have heard that Envoy Qin was born with superhuman strength. This item can not only strengthen his muscles and bones, but also enhance his cultivation."
With Qin Xunshi's talent, he should be able to break through to become Innate Martial Artist very soon after consuming this blood ginseng!
You don't need to refuse; the stronger you are, the better you can protect the people of Great Li.
This is also a small token of my appreciation.
It has to be said that the Spirit Medicine offered by the other party truly tempted Qin Yan.
The medicinal power of this thousand-year-old Spirit Medicine is immense; consuming it could likely enhance one's physical strength significantly.
"Thank you, Your Prince Jing!"
Seeing how understanding and righteous the other party was, Qin Yan could only accept the gift with tears in his eyes.
Indeed, there are still good people in this world!
