Bai Rixuan's thing, although it is interesting, but it can't be done too much.
This kind of thing is only interesting if you come at night.
Cheng Guang rubbed his waist and slowly walked out of the room.
I walked to the pavilion, made myself a cup of tea, filled the teacup, and the hot tea rolled in the teacup, releasing a delicate fragrance.
Cheng Guang sat in the pavilion and began to think about his next step. For Cheng Guang, whether King Nanming or missing the prince had little impact on him.
As long as the Nanming King misses the prince and doesn't offend him, he will not be willing to get involved in this matter even to death.
But now, King Nanming, who misses the impersonation of the prince, wants to do nothing. First he hooks up with the demon clan, and then he tries to assassinate him again and again and kill him. Now this time, he has extended his hand to the royal ceremony. , if chaos breaks out at the royal ceremony, I don’t know how many people will die.
No matter how many others died, Cheng Guang didn't care.
But he also has to attend the royal ceremony.
In a sense, Cheng Guang is also a member of the royal family. Whether he is a minister or a relative of the emperor, he cannot escape.
Wu Yuemei and Cheng Zhihai also wanted to participate in the royal ceremony.
In this royal ceremony, there were too many people related to Cheng Guang.
If Cheng Guang just ignores King Nanming, the Emperor of Zhou, a powerful man in the heaven and human realm, can be seriously injured. What else can he get?
The more Cheng Guang thought about it, the more he felt that King Nanming really deserved to die.
He slowly picked up the teacup, took a sip, moistened his throat, put one hand on his forehead, pushed his hair back, and looked up at the stars in the sky.
Thoughts surged in my mind.
"Now, what should we do?"
"Although I know what King Nanming is planning and where the port where the demon clan is smuggling over is, but... if I tell Cheng Zhihai directly, how should I explain to him how I found out? "
"As for King Nanming replacing those monsters with Zhou officials, allowing them to participate in the royal ceremony, causing harassment at the royal ceremony, how should these problematic officials find a reasonable reason to exclude them all?"
One after another problems were placed in front of Cheng Guang.
At this time, Cheng Guang felt more and more that without power, it was really difficult to move forward.
Especially for him now, the correct answer was clearly placed in front of him, but when he was about to copy the answer, the ink pen in his hand suddenly ran out of water.
At this time, all I can do is worry and stare, there is no other way.
The more Cheng Guang thought about it, the more he felt that this matter was very difficult for him.
at this time.
The weather is clear and cold.
There are very few clouds in the sky, and basically no clouds can be seen. The moon can directly shine its light onto the earth.
Cheng Guang got up and planned to practice for a while. There was no rush in this matter. There were still a few months until the royal ceremony.
In the past few months, no matter what, we can find some breakthroughs.
Besides...
He has now joined the Lampbearing Department.
Although his position in the Lighting Department is very low, due to his status, even the highest-ranking detective must respect him at all times.
His words still carry some weight.
Maybe we can use the power of the Deng Si's agents to deal with the missing prince who is pretending to be King Nanming.
At this moment, Cheng Guang seemed to have thought of something, rubbing his chin and his eyes shining brightly.
anyway.
The system's task this time was to give me two options.
One of the options is to kill King Nanming, and the other option is to take refuge with King Nanming.
Logically speaking, you only need to complete one of these two options.
but……
Can I complete both tasks and get the system's task rewards for free?
This system mission is quite interesting. You can get a famous sword by killing King Nanming. Although I don’t know how powerful this sword is, at least it is a famous sword marked by the system. I think the quality is pretty good and it can’t be too bad. .
And if the one who takes refuge with King Nanming can get a pug.
Cheng Guang was a little suspicious, was his mentally retarded system hinting at something, suggesting that if he took refuge with King Nanming, he would be like a lapdog?
The corner of Cheng Guang's mouth twitched slightly, feeling that the system had a sense of humor, although the sense of humor was inexplicably cold.
It's like a joke.
Echoing the word "hell" marked behind the pug, it actually became a joke from hell.
Cheng Guang couldn't help laughing and shook his head. If he could, he would have completed both tasks.
Logically speaking, one only needs to obtain the approval of King Nanming or the approval of his subordinates.
But with the style of our own mentally retarded system, it doesn't matter whether he is sincere or not, nor does it matter whether the other party wants to take him in.
As long as the surface has this form, it's fine.
Thinking like this, Cheng Guang suddenly said something silently in his heart.
"I am from King Nanming."
The voice fell, and there was silence.
No task completion beep sounds.
Cheng Guang's interest was weak. This was not enough.
Learning smart?
No, this system has no intelligence and cannot learn and grow.
That's all, I don't care about your little system anymore.
Cheng Guang planned to try another method in the future, but now he had to practice.
Walking to the courtyard, we first practiced Tiangang Star Dou for a while.
The martial arts of Tiangang Xingdou is quite good. Only when he realized the first stage of enlightenment, he could burst out with such powerful power that he could directly kill Qiu Zhizhu, the dean of the Dazhou Martial Academy who had reached the ninth level of cultivation.
Although the Qiu Zhihu was killed under the effect of the ban, the opponent's cultivation strength was greatly restricted even under the effect of the ban, but it was not something that ordinary warriors could compare with. of.
Under such circumstances, Cheng Guang was able to kill Qiu Zhizhu. It had to be said that he was still quite capable.
Under the moonlight, Cheng Guang started dancing with his hands and feet, and every move seemed to contain a little starlight.
At this moment, his whole body was covered with an unspeakable meaning.
Lin Cheng, who was guarding the courtyard, saw the figure of his eldest son, and couldn't help but secretly nodded in admiration, feeling shocked in his heart.
"The realm of Tiangang Star Dou, the Crown Prince, has improved a lot. How come in the eyes of everyone in the world, the Tiangang Star Dou, which is extremely difficult to practice, seems extremely simple in front of my Crown Prince..."
"Speaking of which, is the prince about to break through to the Purple Mansion realm now?"
Lin Cheng looked at the energy fluctuations around Cheng Guang and speculated in his mind.
At this moment, Cheng Guang looked slightly startled.
The Divine Emperor's cultivation method quietly started to operate in his body, and a large amount of vitality was attracted during his breathing and poured into his soul.
As for spiritual cultivation, he was still in the Yin Shen realm at this time, and his soul was pure white.
At this time, the Yuanshen, which was originally a large area of pure white, suddenly changed another color.
Most of it was covered in red fire color.
Cheng Guang felt that his body seemed to be getting hot.
In fact, it is not the heat of the body, but the heat that comes from the soul.
The soul, like its substance, began to slowly heat up.
The fiery red that originally only occupied most of the soul instantly covered the entire soul, and his Wushen all turned into a fiery red color in the blink of an eye.
Boom~~~! !
Cheng Guang only felt a roaring sound coming from his ears.
The roaring sound was like thunder deafening and the ancient dragon roaring.
It shocked his whole body and spirit.
When I opened my eyes again, I felt that the world in front of me seemed to have become much brighter.
At the same time, he also felt as if he could temporarily leave his body.
Cheng Guang thought like this, and with a thought, his soul slowly rose.
He seemed to fly up and break away from his body.
Immediately afterwards, he saw his body standing with eyes closed in the courtyard, Lin Cheng who was quietly watching him from the side of the courtyard, and the members of the Lantern Division who were secretly guarding him.
Everything, no one can hide or avoid under his eyes, everything can be seen clearly.
Yang God Realm!
Third level of spiritual realm, Yangshen realm!
Cheng Guang was pleasantly surprised. He didn't know how long it took other royal families to practice the spiritual path to reach the Yangshen realm of the third level of the spiritual path. It only took him less than a month to reach this point.
The spiritual path has now broken through to the third-grade Yangshen realm, and the martial arts is almost there.
Maybe in just one or two days, we can break through to the Purple Mansion Realm.
Having said that, it is still very important to open up the Zifu in martial arts.
The Purple Mansion is a place used to store martial arts and martial arts imprints. It stands to reason that the bigger the Zi Mansion is, the more powerful the martial arts and magical imprints it can store.
The upper limit of the Zi Mansion determines the upper limit of the martial arts mark.
Therefore, most people, even if they cannot learn such advanced martial arts, will still try to make their Zi Mansion slightly larger just in case.
If you can learn powerful martial arts in the future, but Zi Mansion suddenly doesn't have enough, wouldn't it be embarrassing?
Therefore, many warriors will spend some time in the Zifu realm to hone their skills and solidify their foundation. When the scale developed by Zifu is enough, it will not be too late to make a breakthrough by then.
While Cheng Guang was thinking, his soul slightly retracted and returned to his body.
His Yang Shen realm has been able to leave his body for a period of time. Even during the day, his soul can stay outside for an hour or two without any damage.
But if it exceeds two hours, the soul will still be burned by the scorching sun.
Therefore, before the soul cannot completely ignore the sun, it is still necessary to avoid it.
Cheng Guang then practiced the Divine Emperor Cultivation Method for a while, channeling most of the energy he attracted into the Yuanshen to consolidate the Yuanshen that had just broken through the Yangshen realm.
At the same time, his body was not idle, and he was still practicing the Divine Python Snake Winding Kung Fu.
Time passed slowly in Cheng Guang's practice.
In the middle of the night, Cheng Guang went back to his room to rest for a while.
This time, Cheng Guang did not rest for too long.
He got up at dawn and when the rooster crows.
Under Qingluan's service, after briefly washing up, he was ready to leave the house and go to the Lantern Holding Department.
this time.
He has long been an agent of the Lighting Department.
Although Cheng Zhihai hasn't told him yet, nor has he specifically asked him to report to the Lighting Department, Cheng Guang has something going on right now, and with King Nanming weighing him down, he has to take action on his own initiative and can't rely on anyone else.
Cheng Guang left the house, and Lin Cheng followed closely behind him.
It took less than an hour for Cheng Guang to arrive at the lamp holding department.
At this time, when he returned to the lamp holding department, his mentality had changed.
When he first arrived at the Lantern Division, Cheng Guang's figure attracted everyone's attention. However, many of the policemen in the Lantern Division did not have the intention to communicate too much with his son. They simply saluted and left in a hurry. Leave.
It seemed that something big had happened to the lamp holder, and many people were in panic.
Cheng Guang frowned slightly, not understanding what was happening.
But it's not easy to stop someone and ask. Looking at them in such a hurry, they don't seem to have time to talk to me.
Cheng Guang didn't care, and walked slowly into the lamp holding department, stepping on the bluestone road, and after a while, he reached the depths of the lamp holding department.
While walking along the way, Cheng Guang could vaguely hear some words coming from the mouths of these people from time to time. Although he couldn't hear clearly, he could still hear some words.
"Why does Your Majesty want us to find out that we miss the prince within three months... This is not a fantasy!"
"I miss that the prince is so good at hiding. He has even been hiding for decades. If it were easy to find out, he would have found it long ago. It has not been found for so long. Three months... How is this possible..."
"Oh, there's no other way. We have to investigate now. If we can't find the missing prince within three months, the director will be replaced."
"Yeah, it's really a headache. Why would Your Majesty want to replace our director, and also want to replace him with that eunuch..."
"Shh..."
"That's not true. You don't know the simple truth that walls have ears. Fortunately, you are still a policeman in charge of the lamp department. Don't talk nonsense. Although Zhao Jin is an eunuch, he is still a good person in cultivation. Director Yu Cheng’s people.”
Cheng Guang's face gradually became weird after listening to everyone's comments.
He really couldn't imagine that the reason why everyone in the lantern-holding department looked downcast and hurried was because of this...
Your Majesty wants to replace Cheng Zhihai from his position as Director of the Lamp Holding Department?
Why?For what reason?
Is it because of what happened not long ago that the martial arts competition between the Wei Dynasty and the Zhou Dynasty was disrupted?
Cheng Guang thought secretly and walked to the main hall of the lamp holding department.
Before they even got close, they heard the voices of Cheng Zhihai, Qian Siyuan, and another person with a low and slightly hoarse voice talking from inside the hall.
"Mr. Secretary, the whereabouts of the missing prince are unknown. Most of the men in black robes we captured last time were dead soldiers with low levels of strength and no knowledge of anything. We can't find out much valuable things."
Qian Siyuan's voice.
"The time given by His Majesty is too short. Three months is impossible."
The voice was slightly hoarse and belonged to another person.
Cheng Zhihai also spoke at this time: "Don't say any more. His Majesty naturally has his own reasons for doing this. As ministers, we just need to obey and don't discuss His Majesty's decision."
After Cheng Zhihai finished speaking, everyone fell silent.
They were using silence to resist what Cheng Zhihai said.
Cheng Zhihai's temperament is completely different from that of Duke Zhen Guo Cheng Shiyuan. If he had the temperament of Duke Zhen Guo Cheng Shiyuan, it would be impossible for him to defend His Majesty's words in this way.
In their opinion, His Majesty simply wanted to take back the power in Cheng Zhihai's hands.
Now, under the leadership of Cheng Zhihai, the Damp Holder can operate independently even without Cheng Zhihai.
Your Majesty may be...
thinking about...
The power of the Zhenguo Government is too great.
Zhenguo Gong Cheng Shiyuan suppressed the realm, and there were one million Northern Expedition troops. Now, it could be called the most powerful army of the Zhou Dynasty, and it was in the hands of Zhenguo Gongfu.
If the Zhou Dynasty were in chaos, the Zhenguo Palace could set up a banner on its own.
The emperor of the Zhou Dynasty did not dare to touch the million lions in the hands of Cheng Shiyuan, the Duke of Zhenguo, and could not touch them.
After all, the borders of the Zhou Dynasty still need to be suppressed by Zhenguo Gong Cheng Shiyuan.
Cheng Shiyuan, the Duke of Zhen Guo, has been in the boundary all year round and made great contributions to the Zhou Dynasty. Even the Emperor of the Zhou Dynasty could not find any reason to deprive Zheng Guo Gong Cheng Shiyuan of the power.
There is no reason or way to take back the Northern Expeditionary Army from the hands of Cheng Shiyuan, the Duke of Zhenguo.
Even if the Emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty forcibly took back the military power of the Northern Expeditionary Army from the hands of Duke Zhen Guo, the millions of Northern Expeditionary Army might not listen to the Emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty.
The one million Northern Expeditionary Army was nominally the army of the Zhou Dynasty, but in fact, it was just a team pulled up by Cheng Shiyuan alone.
It is the family army of the Zhenguo government.
They also only recognized the Duke of Zhen Guo.
Perhaps, he also recognizes the future Duke of Zhenguo.
Instead of recognizing the Emperor of Zhou Dynasty.
Therefore, even if the Emperor of the Zhou Dynasty felt that the power of Zhen Guo Gongfu was too great, he did not take action against Zhen Guo Gong Cheng Zhihai.
As such...
If the Emperor of the Zhou Dynasty still wanted to suppress the government of Zhenguo a little bit, he could only find a breakthrough from Cheng Zhihai.
Just right.
What happened not long ago gave Emperor Zhou such an excuse.
It can be used as an excuse to separate the Damp Holder from Cheng Zhihai.
Although the Emperor of Zhou Dynasty wanted to take away the lamp holder from Cheng Zhihai, he did not completely deny Cheng Zhihai face and opportunities.
As long as Cheng Zhihai can find the missing prince's whereabouts within three months, then the lantern holder can still be kept in his hands. If not, then the Emperor of Zhou cannot be blamed for being ruthless.The two people in the room stopped talking.
They are worried, they are worried!
They didn't think that Cheng Zhihai, them, or the entire Deng Zhi Division would be able to find the missing prince in just three months.
I miss who the prince is.
But someone who has been dealing with the Emperor of Zhou Dynasty for decades, even if he is disqualified from inheriting the throne, can still hide in the dark and secretly plan to rebel.
Such a person is so smart!
Such a person is so weird!
It's not something they can simply find.
They just felt in their hearts that this matter was as difficult as climbing to the sky.
Cheng Zhihai was afraid that he would really leave the Lamp Holding Division.
When thinking of this, Qian Siyuan and the person next to him felt gloomy in their hearts, and their moods couldn't help but become depressed.
They knew that once Cheng Zhihai left the Deng-Zhou Division, the Deng-Zhou Division would no longer be their brother's Deng-Zhou Division, but would completely become an intelligence agency without any emotion for the Zhou Dynasty.
even though……
That's how it should be.
But for those of them, who have been trying to find a way for the human race since the founding of the Lantern Division, Cheng Zhihai's departure is impossible to accept.
But right now...
There is no other way.
The Emperor of Zhou Dynasty has given a deadline.
Three months!
Only three months left!
Qian Siyuan and the person beside him already felt a little more sense of urgency in their hearts.
They didn't say anything more to Cheng Zhihai, and after chatting for a few more words, they hurriedly turned and left, already wanting to quickly find out the whereabouts of the missing prince.
The only way they wanted to keep Cheng Zhihai in the Lantern Division was to find the missing prince as soon as possible within these three months.
If they can't find the missing prince, then no matter how many ways they think of, no matter how much love they ask the Emperor of Zhou, it will have no effect.
Qian Siyuan walked out of the hall quickly. After he walked out of the hall, he saw Cheng Guang's figure. When he saw Cheng Guang, he was slightly stunned, then a gentle smile appeared on his slightly stiff face, and he nodded slightly towards Cheng Guang. , and then left quickly.
Li Zhengyang, who was following Qian Siyuan, also noticed Cheng Guang. This was the first time he saw Cheng Guang in the lamp holding department, and his face showed a little surprise.
"Sir."
Li Zhengyang looked at Cheng Guang for a few times, with a hint of admiration in his eyes: "Your Majesty, I passed the martial arts competition. Your Majesty's skills are not simple. I admire him very much."
"I still have something to do, so I won't disturb the prince."
Li Zhengyang glanced at Cheng Guang for a few times and left quickly.
While Li Zhengyang was sizing up Cheng Guang, Cheng Guang was also sizing up Li Zhengyang.
Li Zhengyang is also one of the deputy directors of the Lamp Holding Department. He is upright and full of righteousness. If he is placed in the court, he will definitely be a public official similar to Wei Zheng.
Li Zhengyang's character is exactly the same as his appearance. He is upright and comes from a poor family. Therefore, he has to take care of every incident where the powerful oppress the poor family.
Originally, the lamp holder was not popular in the eyes of many powerful people.
And because of Li Zhengyang's existence, the lamp bearer has completely become a thorn in the eyes and flesh of many powerful people.
but……
Cheng Guang knew that it was because of the existence of people like Li Zhengyang that the Deng Holder could be called the Deng Holder.
Otherwise, how can we find a way out for the human race?
In a world where only the rich and powerful exist, and where poor families cannot get ahead, there is not much hope.
Cheng Guang watched Qian Siyuan and Li Zhengyang disappear, slowly withdrew his gaze and walked towards the main hall.
Seeing the slightly sad and lonely Cheng Zhihai in the main hall, he couldn't help but smile.
Although Cheng Zhihai, Qian Siyuan and Li Zhengyang are now worried about how to find the missing prince, Cheng Guang knows that the missing prince should be found in the end.
Otherwise, the lamp-bearing division would not still be in the hands of the real prince in the future, and would have been completely taken back by the Emperor of Zhou.
But even if the missing prince was found, it must have taken a long time, and after Cheng Zhihai's death, the missing prince was not completely eliminated, so even if the lantern holder is still in the hands of the real prince in the future, It's not of much use either.
The Emperor of the Zhou Dynasty may have supported another organization similar to the Lantern Holding Division.
Cheng Guang was thinking in his mind and said to Cheng Zhihai, "Dad."
Cheng Zhihai heard Cheng Guang's voice and quickly turned his head to look at Cheng Guang. His worried expression was instantly suppressed by him, and a faint smile appeared on his face.
"Guang'er, why are you here today?"
"Come on, are you thirsty? Come and have some tea."
Cheng Zhihai said, asked Cheng Guang to sit down, and poured Cheng Guang a cup of refreshing tea himself.
Cheng Guang didn't have much thought about drinking tea at this time. He shook his head slightly, looked at Cheng Zhihai and said, "Dad, what Uncle Qian and Uncle Li just said..."
Cheng Guang said halfway, Cheng Zhihai's face became a little embarrassed.
"Guang'er, you heard me."
Cheng Guang nodded.
Seeing that Cheng Guang was still staring at him, Cheng Zhihai knew that Cheng Guang wanted to know the whole story, and he was not going to hide it from Cheng Guang. After sitting down, he also poured himself a cup of tea, took a slow sip, and put down the teacup. , looking at Cheng Guang.
"Guang'er, the status of our Zhenguo Palace is very special in the Great Zhou Dynasty, very special."
"Your grandfather is the Duke of the Kingdom and controls millions of troops in the realm. Even if your grandfather has no thoughts of treason, this military power cannot be ignored in any dynasty."
"What's more, the millions of Northern Expeditionary troops only recognize the orders of our Zhenguo Government. Even if the emperor comes in person, the millions of Northern Expeditionary troops will not pay attention to him. Therefore, the emperor always remains vigilant towards our Zhenguo Government. .”
"In addition, the officials of the imperial court have become more and more dissatisfied with the Zhenguo Palace because of the actions of the Lantern Division. They have not only submitted memorials to the emperor to weaken the power of the Zhenguo Palace."
"Your grandfather couldn't move, so the emperor wanted to move me."
"So, it was within my expectation that the emperor would want to replace me. Fortunately, he would also take my face into consideration and give me a chance."
Speaking of this, Cheng Zhihai looked at Cheng Guang, with a doting smile on his face, and reached out to rub Cheng Guang's head.
"So, Guang'er, don't worry. Although the Lantern Division is an institution of the imperial court, it is also a business built by me. I will not let the emperor take away this future legacy for you easily."
Cheng Guang didn't care about this. The name "Lamp Holder" was not important, as long as the person holding the lights was still there.
Even if the lantern holder is taken away by the emperor, as long as the lantern holder is still there, he is still willing to follow Cheng Zhihai. If the person is there, then the lantern holder will be there.
In Cheng Guang's view, what truly has a soul for an organization is not just an empty name or a powerful person. Talent is the key.
Of course, power is actually very important. If there is no power, even if there are only one person, there is no power to implement it, and no one is willing to listen to what you and others say, it will not have much effect.
Cheng Guang picked up the tea cup, poured himself a sip of tea, nodded silently, and said, "Dad, haven't I passed the entry examination of the Lantern Holding Division? I want to join the Lantern Holding Division and do some tasks."
When Cheng Zhihai heard what Cheng Guang said, his eyes were stunned, and his majestic eyes seemed a little dazed.
Obviously he didn't expect that Cheng Guang would say such a thing.
"Guang'er... you... why do you suddenly want to do a mission?"
"I've prepared your next mission, but I haven't completed it for you yet. Just wait until dad has paved the road for you before you leave."
Good guy, you don’t want me to lie down all the way and climb directly to the top of the lamp-bearing department.
The corner of Cheng Guang's mouth twitched slightly, but he still underestimated Cheng Zhihai's doting on him.
As a co-author, I don’t want to suffer at all.
Even the task of carrying out the lighting department, I just want to wait until it is completed before I can receive the merit.
Although this was indeed very satisfying, if he didn't miss the prince, or in other words, if there was no such thing as King Nanming, Cheng Guang wouldn't bother messing around.
Just practice obediently at home and improve your cultivation strength. Wouldn't it be nice to wait for Cheng Zhihai to complete the tasks for you and then come over to take credit for your promotion?
Cheng Guang sighed. The situation in front of him no longer allowed him to continue.
Cheng Guang faced Cheng Zhihai, shook his head and said, "Dad, no."
"I want to complete the task of holding the lamp on my own, and I also want to help you find out the whereabouts of the missing prince."
When Cheng Zhihai heard Cheng Guang's words, the corners of his mouth couldn't hold back.
After handling the case for many years, the Damp Holder, who is famous for monitoring the world, may not be able to guarantee that he will be able to find out the whereabouts of the missing prince. You brat, you are messing around without anything.
Cheng Zhihai immediately wanted to refuse Cheng Guang's revelation, but he saw the determination in Cheng Guang's eyes. It seemed that if he didn't agree, Cheng Guang would not give up today.
Cheng Zhihai was stunned again when he saw Cheng Guang's expression.
He has never seen such a look in Cheng Guang's eyes.
Could it be that Cheng Guang really wanted to help him find out the whereabouts of the missing prince, and wasn't he just having fun?
Cheng Zhihai pondered for a moment and nodded slowly.
"Okay, since Guang'er you want to investigate, then go and investigate. I will assign you a few people. This investigation will miss the crown prince, so it will be your first task after joining the Lantern Division."
With that said, Cheng Zhihai took out a black iron-colored lamp holding commander badge.
"Our lighting department is divided into three levels. Let's not talk about the non-staff personnel for the moment. The staff, that is, the formal staff, is divided into three levels, namely, the black light agent, the white light agent, the silver light agent, and finally The golden lantern catches the fast one.”
"Further up, there are the director and deputy director."
"You were just a black light agent when you first joined the Lantern Division, so there aren't many people available to support you. For the time being, let's take a few young non-staff members to find out the whereabouts of the missing prince."
"After you find out, report it directly to me. Do you understand?"
When Cheng Zhihai said the last sentence, his majestic face could no longer hold back the smile, and his face was filled with a bright smile.
It seems that in his opinion, it is impossible for Cheng Guang to find out the missing prince.
Cheng Guang also knew what Cheng Zhihai was thinking, and he obviously didn't trust him.
Cheng Guang himself didn't need Cheng Zhihai to believe him, he just needed such a channel.
Let Cheng Zhihai, or rather, the Emperor of Zhou behind Cheng Zhihai, and other relevant people know that he is investigating.
In this way, even if he didn't find out anything, he could complete the task as long as he made up a suitable reason and reported to Cheng Zhihai the whereabouts of the missing prince.
It can also ruin the plan of remembering the prince.
Regardless of the process, at least his goal was achieved.
Cheng Guang didn't care at all about the process.
After taking the token from Cheng Zhihai, he left the hall directly.
I don't want to talk to Cheng Zhihai who doesn't believe in me so much.
This old man has become unlovable inexplicably.
Ugh.
Cheng Guang shook his head and sighed.
After he walked out of the hall.
Cheng Zhihai also looked away from Cheng Guang.
He picked up the teacup, gently swirled the clear tea in the teacup, blew on the white mist at the mouth of the teacup, took a sip, and moistened his throat.
He looked slightly thoughtful, with an inexplicable luster shining in his eyes.
"Yeah, why didn't I think that finding out the whereabouts of the missing prince would be a big credit. If I could transfer the credit for finding out the whereabouts of the missing prince to Guang'er, Guang'er only relies on such a credit , you can be directly promoted to Silver Lantern Agent."
"If I keep fighting hard, it's not impossible to be directly promoted to Golden Lantern Agent."
"Hey! One step is right. No matter how hard I work in the future, it is not impossible for Guang'er to be promoted to my position within two or three years."
"When the time comes, I will hand over the lamp holder to Guang'er, and I will go to other places to shine for Guang'er."
As he spoke, a slight smile appeared on Cheng Zhihai's face, and the smile gradually became stronger.
Smiling, he also began to move, looking through the desk and the intelligence information reported from the branch halls of the lighting divisions in various places.
Trying to find a missed prince who had not appeared for decades in the vast territory of the Zhou Dynasty was almost like looking for a needle in a haystack.
Cheng Zhihai can only work hard now, and he can only rely on perseverance to check and find it.
He didn't believe it. How could a person who missed the prince hide somewhere? Even if it was at the end of the world, he would dig out the missing prince.
Cheng Zhihai quickly flipped through the book. Time passed quickly as he browsed intelligence information from various places. He picked up the teacup and took a sip from time to time.
a cup of tea.
all day.
——"The Struggled Old Father"
…………
Cheng Guang didn't know anything about Cheng Zhihai's behavior, and he started his own actions at this time.
Now that he was a black light agent, Cheng Guang first went to the reporting office of the Lighting Department and received a suit of clothes.
The clothes of the lamp bearers are all exquisite, mainly in dark tones, made of rare silks and unique fabrics, and embroidered with complex patterns. These patterns will emit a faint light at night, like stars shining in the dark night. Faintly visible.
The clothes are designed with great attention to detail, and each piece is carefully crafted by hand.
The collar is inlaid with silver satin, the cuffs are hooked with golden silk thread, and a wide belt is tied around the waist with a black-edged lantern buckle on it, which is the logo of the lamp holder.
A black light will have a black edge, a white light will have a white edge, and so on. The lantern buckle on the top of the light will have the same edge.
The highest-level director and deputy director are in the low-key and noble platinum flame color.
Cheng Guang found a place and after changing into clothes, he looked at himself and felt that he looked quite handsome.
He has a handsome face and looks good in any clothes. When he puts on the clothes of the lamp bearer, he has an inexplicable aura about him.
It is worth mentioning that although Cheng Guang is just a black lantern agent, even the white lantern agents and even the silver lantern agents who occasionally pass by do not look down upon or look down upon.
This is not because Cheng Guang is the crown prince, but because the Deng Holding Department does not despise or look down on anyone because of their official position.
This is quite good in Cheng Guang's opinion.
Although the Deng-Zhou Division is also a small officialdom, it is still inexplicably different from the officialdom of the imperial court.
They don't compete for power. In the Lantern Division, if you want to be promoted, promoted, and gain more resources and power, you must work hard to complete tasks and obtain more intelligence.
Everything is divided according to your efforts.
So everyone is busy doing tasks, so why bother to ignore this or that.
Today you are a white light and I am a black light. Maybe tomorrow I will be a white light, but the day after tomorrow I will still be a silver light.
One day at a time.
Changes were rapid, unlike within the Zhou Dynasty, where there were factional struggles and nepotism.
Among the lampbearers, there is absolutely no such thing.
Cheng Guang walked to the mission hall of the Damp Holder and entered the mission hall. There was a lot of mission information in the mission hall. The first one was to find the whereabouts of the missing prince.
Moreover, this task is at the highest level and in the most conspicuous position.
Anyone can pick up.
As long as you can provide the missing prince's whereabouts, even if it's vague information, not specific information, it's okay.
You can still get a lot of merit.
So now most of the agents in the Lantern Division have accepted this mission and received some intelligence information related to the memory of the prince.
Even if you don't finish it later, it doesn't matter. It's good to chase your dream.
What if.
If you accidentally learn about the whereabouts of the missing prince, you can come over and submit the task as soon as possible and get a lot of merit.
Merit is still quite important in the Lamp Holding Division.
Not only can you use it to improve your position, you can also use your merits to exchange for some resources.
Cheng Guang walked to the counter and looked at one of the tired-looking old men. Before he could speak, the old man threw a volume in his hand to Cheng Guang.
"Okay, you don't have to say anything. Old man, I know you want to receive the task of commemorating the prince."
"Hey, young people today are more unstable than the last. Is it so easy to find a missing prince?"
"The director was released just to find a needle in a haystack. He didn't expect you black lantern boys to find it. It's better to complete other tasks properly and leave this task to the golden lantern or silver lantern agents. "
The old man didn't even raise his head. After he finished speaking, he waved his hand and wanted to drive people away.
Cheng Guang couldn't help but laugh when he saw this, "Old man, I want to ask, if a black light agent like me needs help, where can I get it?"
The old man didn't want to hear Cheng Guang calling him old man.
"Hey! You young man, why are you so rude? Although I am a little old, you can't call me old man. At least you should call me uncle, or something else, you know?"
After the old man finished speaking, he raised his head and wanted to say something else. When he raised his head, he saw Cheng Guang's face, and his expression instantly froze.
His eyes widened, and he made a sound of "uh huh" from his throat.
Can't say anything.
…………
(End of this chapter)
Bai Rixuan's thing, although it is interesting, but it can't be done too much.
This kind of thing is only interesting if you come at night.
Cheng Guang rubbed his waist and slowly walked out of the room.
I walked to the pavilion, made myself a cup of tea, filled the teacup, and the hot tea rolled in the teacup, releasing a delicate fragrance.
Cheng Guang sat in the pavilion and began to think about his next step. For Cheng Guang, whether King Nanming or missing the prince had little impact on him.
As long as the Nanming King misses the prince and doesn't offend him, he will not be willing to get involved in this matter even to death.
But now, King Nanming, who misses the impersonation of the prince, wants to do nothing. First he hooks up with the demon clan, and then he tries to assassinate him again and again and kill him. Now this time, he has extended his hand to the royal ceremony. , if chaos breaks out at the royal ceremony, I don’t know how many people will die.
No matter how many others died, Cheng Guang didn't care.
But he also has to attend the royal ceremony.
In a sense, Cheng Guang is also a member of the royal family. Whether he is a minister or a relative of the emperor, he cannot escape.
Wu Yuemei and Cheng Zhihai also wanted to participate in the royal ceremony.
In this royal ceremony, there were too many people related to Cheng Guang.
If Cheng Guang just ignores King Nanming, the Emperor of Zhou, a powerful man in the heaven and human realm, can be seriously injured. What else can he get?
The more Cheng Guang thought about it, the more he felt that King Nanming really deserved to die.
He slowly picked up the teacup, took a sip, moistened his throat, put one hand on his forehead, pushed his hair back, and looked up at the stars in the sky.
Thoughts surged in my mind.
"Now, what should we do?"
"Although I know what King Nanming is planning and where the port where the demon clan is smuggling over is, but... if I tell Cheng Zhihai directly, how should I explain to him how I found out? "
"As for King Nanming replacing those monsters with Zhou officials, allowing them to participate in the royal ceremony, causing harassment at the royal ceremony, how should these problematic officials find a reasonable reason to exclude them all?"
One after another problems were placed in front of Cheng Guang.
At this time, Cheng Guang felt more and more that without power, it was really difficult to move forward.
Especially for him now, the correct answer was clearly placed in front of him, but when he was about to copy the answer, the ink pen in his hand suddenly ran out of water.
At this time, all I can do is worry and stare, there is no other way.
The more Cheng Guang thought about it, the more he felt that this matter was very difficult for him.
at this time.
The weather is clear and cold.
There are very few clouds in the sky, and basically no clouds can be seen. The moon can directly shine its light onto the earth.
Cheng Guang got up and planned to practice for a while. There was no rush in this matter. There were still a few months until the royal ceremony.
In the past few months, no matter what, we can find some breakthroughs.
Besides...
He has now joined the Lampbearing Department.
Although his position in the Lighting Department is very low, due to his status, even the highest-ranking detective must respect him at all times.
His words still carry some weight.
Maybe we can use the power of the Deng Si's agents to deal with the missing prince who is pretending to be King Nanming.
At this moment, Cheng Guang seemed to have thought of something, rubbing his chin and his eyes shining brightly.
anyway.
The system's task this time was to give me two options.
One of the options is to kill King Nanming, and the other option is to take refuge with King Nanming.
Logically speaking, you only need to complete one of these two options.
but……
Can I complete both tasks and get the system's task rewards for free?
This system mission is quite interesting. You can get a famous sword by killing King Nanming. Although I don’t know how powerful this sword is, at least it is a famous sword marked by the system. I think the quality is pretty good and it can’t be too bad. .
And if the one who takes refuge with King Nanming can get a pug.
Cheng Guang was a little suspicious, was his mentally retarded system hinting at something, suggesting that if he took refuge with King Nanming, he would be like a lapdog?
The corner of Cheng Guang's mouth twitched slightly, feeling that the system had a sense of humor, although the sense of humor was inexplicably cold.
It's like a joke.
Echoing the word "hell" marked behind the pug, it actually became a joke from hell.
Cheng Guang couldn't help laughing and shook his head. If he could, he would have completed both tasks.
Logically speaking, one only needs to obtain the approval of King Nanming or the approval of his subordinates.
But with the style of our own mentally retarded system, it doesn't matter whether he is sincere or not, nor does it matter whether the other party wants to take him in.
As long as the surface has this form, it's fine.
Thinking like this, Cheng Guang suddenly said something silently in his heart.
"I am from King Nanming."
The voice fell, and there was silence.
No task completion beep sounds.
Cheng Guang's interest was weak. This was not enough.
Learning smart?
No, this system has no intelligence and cannot learn and grow.
That's all, I don't care about your little system anymore.
Cheng Guang planned to try another method in the future, but now he had to practice.
Walking to the courtyard, we first practiced Tiangang Star Dou for a while.
The martial arts of Tiangang Xingdou is quite good. Only when he realized the first stage of enlightenment, he could burst out with such powerful power that he could directly kill Qiu Zhizhu, the dean of the Dazhou Martial Academy who had reached the ninth level of cultivation.
Although the Qiu Zhihu was killed under the effect of the ban, the opponent's cultivation strength was greatly restricted even under the effect of the ban, but it was not something that ordinary warriors could compare with. of.
Under such circumstances, Cheng Guang was able to kill Qiu Zhizhu. It had to be said that he was still quite capable.
Under the moonlight, Cheng Guang started dancing with his hands and feet, and every move seemed to contain a little starlight.
At this moment, his whole body was covered with an unspeakable meaning.
Lin Cheng, who was guarding the courtyard, saw the figure of his eldest son, and couldn't help but secretly nodded in admiration, feeling shocked in his heart.
"The realm of Tiangang Star Dou, the Crown Prince, has improved a lot. How come in the eyes of everyone in the world, the Tiangang Star Dou, which is extremely difficult to practice, seems extremely simple in front of my Crown Prince..."
"Speaking of which, is the prince about to break through to the Purple Mansion realm now?"
Lin Cheng looked at the energy fluctuations around Cheng Guang and speculated in his mind.
At this moment, Cheng Guang looked slightly startled.
The Divine Emperor's cultivation method quietly started to operate in his body, and a large amount of vitality was attracted during his breathing and poured into his soul.
As for spiritual cultivation, he was still in the Yin Shen realm at this time, and his soul was pure white.
At this time, the Yuanshen, which was originally a large area of pure white, suddenly changed another color.
Most of it was covered in red fire color.
Cheng Guang felt that his body seemed to be getting hot.
In fact, it is not the heat of the body, but the heat that comes from the soul.
The soul, like its substance, began to slowly heat up.
The fiery red that originally only occupied most of the soul instantly covered the entire soul, and his Wushen all turned into a fiery red color in the blink of an eye.
Boom~~~! !
Cheng Guang only felt a roaring sound coming from his ears.
The roaring sound was like thunder deafening and the ancient dragon roaring.
It shocked his whole body and spirit.
When I opened my eyes again, I felt that the world in front of me seemed to have become much brighter.
At the same time, he also felt as if he could temporarily leave his body.
Cheng Guang thought like this, and with a thought, his soul slowly rose.
He seemed to fly up and break away from his body.
Immediately afterwards, he saw his body standing with eyes closed in the courtyard, Lin Cheng who was quietly watching him from the side of the courtyard, and the members of the Lantern Division who were secretly guarding him.
Everything, no one can hide or avoid under his eyes, everything can be seen clearly.
Yang God Realm!
Third level of spiritual realm, Yangshen realm!
Cheng Guang was pleasantly surprised. He didn't know how long it took other royal families to practice the spiritual path to reach the Yangshen realm of the third level of the spiritual path. It only took him less than a month to reach this point.
The spiritual path has now broken through to the third-grade Yangshen realm, and the martial arts is almost there.
Maybe in just one or two days, we can break through to the Purple Mansion Realm.
Having said that, it is still very important to open up the Zifu in martial arts.
The Purple Mansion is a place used to store martial arts and martial arts imprints. It stands to reason that the bigger the Zi Mansion is, the more powerful the martial arts and magical imprints it can store.
The upper limit of the Zi Mansion determines the upper limit of the martial arts mark.
Therefore, most people, even if they cannot learn such advanced martial arts, will still try to make their Zi Mansion slightly larger just in case.
If you can learn powerful martial arts in the future, but Zi Mansion suddenly doesn't have enough, wouldn't it be embarrassing?
Therefore, many warriors will spend some time in the Zifu realm to hone their skills and solidify their foundation. When the scale developed by Zifu is enough, it will not be too late to make a breakthrough by then.
While Cheng Guang was thinking, his soul slightly retracted and returned to his body.
His Yang Shen realm has been able to leave his body for a period of time. Even during the day, his soul can stay outside for an hour or two without any damage.
But if it exceeds two hours, the soul will still be burned by the scorching sun.
Therefore, before the soul cannot completely ignore the sun, it is still necessary to avoid it.
Cheng Guang then practiced the Divine Emperor Cultivation Method for a while, channeling most of the energy he attracted into the Yuanshen to consolidate the Yuanshen that had just broken through the Yangshen realm.
At the same time, his body was not idle, and he was still practicing the Divine Python Snake Winding Kung Fu.
Time passed slowly in Cheng Guang's practice.
In the middle of the night, Cheng Guang went back to his room to rest for a while.
This time, Cheng Guang did not rest for too long.
He got up at dawn and when the rooster crows.
Under Qingluan's service, after briefly washing up, he was ready to leave the house and go to the Lantern Holding Department.
this time.
He has long been an agent of the Lighting Department.
Although Cheng Zhihai hasn't told him yet, nor has he specifically asked him to report to the Lighting Department, Cheng Guang has something going on right now, and with King Nanming weighing him down, he has to take action on his own initiative and can't rely on anyone else.
Cheng Guang left the house, and Lin Cheng followed closely behind him.
It took less than an hour for Cheng Guang to arrive at the lamp holding department.
At this time, when he returned to the lamp holding department, his mentality had changed.
When he first arrived at the Lantern Division, Cheng Guang's figure attracted everyone's attention. However, many of the policemen in the Lantern Division did not have the intention to communicate too much with his son. They simply saluted and left in a hurry. Leave.
It seemed that something big had happened to the lamp holder, and many people were in panic.
Cheng Guang frowned slightly, not understanding what was happening.
But it's not easy to stop someone and ask. Looking at them in such a hurry, they don't seem to have time to talk to me.
Cheng Guang didn't care, and walked slowly into the lamp holding department, stepping on the bluestone road, and after a while, he reached the depths of the lamp holding department.
While walking along the way, Cheng Guang could vaguely hear some words coming from the mouths of these people from time to time. Although he couldn't hear clearly, he could still hear some words.
"Why does Your Majesty want us to find out that we miss the prince within three months... This is not a fantasy!"
"I miss that the prince is so good at hiding. He has even been hiding for decades. If it were easy to find out, he would have found it long ago. It has not been found for so long. Three months... How is this possible..."
"Oh, there's no other way. We have to investigate now. If we can't find the missing prince within three months, the director will be replaced."
"Yeah, it's really a headache. Why would Your Majesty want to replace our director, and also want to replace him with that eunuch..."
"Shh..."
"That's not true. You don't know the simple truth that walls have ears. Fortunately, you are still a policeman in charge of the lamp department. Don't talk nonsense. Although Zhao Jin is an eunuch, he is still a good person in cultivation. Director Yu Cheng’s people.”
Cheng Guang's face gradually became weird after listening to everyone's comments.
He really couldn't imagine that the reason why everyone in the lantern-holding department looked downcast and hurried was because of this...
Your Majesty wants to replace Cheng Zhihai from his position as Director of the Lamp Holding Department?
Why?For what reason?
Is it because of what happened not long ago that the martial arts competition between the Wei Dynasty and the Zhou Dynasty was disrupted?
Cheng Guang thought secretly and walked to the main hall of the lamp holding department.
Before they even got close, they heard the voices of Cheng Zhihai, Qian Siyuan, and another person with a low and slightly hoarse voice talking from inside the hall.
"Mr. Secretary, the whereabouts of the missing prince are unknown. Most of the men in black robes we captured last time were dead soldiers with low levels of strength and no knowledge of anything. We can't find out much valuable things."
Qian Siyuan's voice.
"The time given by His Majesty is too short. Three months is impossible."
The voice was slightly hoarse and belonged to another person.
Cheng Zhihai also spoke at this time: "Don't say any more. His Majesty naturally has his own reasons for doing this. As ministers, we just need to obey and don't discuss His Majesty's decision."
After Cheng Zhihai finished speaking, everyone fell silent.
They were using silence to resist what Cheng Zhihai said.
Cheng Zhihai's temperament is completely different from that of Duke Zhen Guo Cheng Shiyuan. If he had the temperament of Duke Zhen Guo Cheng Shiyuan, it would be impossible for him to defend His Majesty's words in this way.
In their opinion, His Majesty simply wanted to take back the power in Cheng Zhihai's hands.
Now, under the leadership of Cheng Zhihai, the Damp Holder can operate independently even without Cheng Zhihai.
Your Majesty may be...
thinking about...
The power of the Zhenguo Government is too great.
Zhenguo Gong Cheng Shiyuan suppressed the realm, and there were one million Northern Expedition troops. Now, it could be called the most powerful army of the Zhou Dynasty, and it was in the hands of Zhenguo Gongfu.
If the Zhou Dynasty were in chaos, the Zhenguo Palace could set up a banner on its own.
The emperor of the Zhou Dynasty did not dare to touch the million lions in the hands of Cheng Shiyuan, the Duke of Zhenguo, and could not touch them.
After all, the borders of the Zhou Dynasty still need to be suppressed by Zhenguo Gong Cheng Shiyuan.
Cheng Shiyuan, the Duke of Zhen Guo, has been in the boundary all year round and made great contributions to the Zhou Dynasty. Even the Emperor of the Zhou Dynasty could not find any reason to deprive Zheng Guo Gong Cheng Shiyuan of the power.
There is no reason or way to take back the Northern Expeditionary Army from the hands of Cheng Shiyuan, the Duke of Zhenguo.
Even if the Emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty forcibly took back the military power of the Northern Expeditionary Army from the hands of Duke Zhen Guo, the millions of Northern Expeditionary Army might not listen to the Emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty.
The one million Northern Expeditionary Army was nominally the army of the Zhou Dynasty, but in fact, it was just a team pulled up by Cheng Shiyuan alone.
It is the family army of the Zhenguo government.
They also only recognized the Duke of Zhen Guo.
Perhaps, he also recognizes the future Duke of Zhenguo.
Instead of recognizing the Emperor of Zhou Dynasty.
Therefore, even if the Emperor of the Zhou Dynasty felt that the power of Zhen Guo Gongfu was too great, he did not take action against Zhen Guo Gong Cheng Zhihai.
As such...
If the Emperor of the Zhou Dynasty still wanted to suppress the government of Zhenguo a little bit, he could only find a breakthrough from Cheng Zhihai.
Just right.
What happened not long ago gave Emperor Zhou such an excuse.
It can be used as an excuse to separate the Damp Holder from Cheng Zhihai.
Although the Emperor of Zhou Dynasty wanted to take away the lamp holder from Cheng Zhihai, he did not completely deny Cheng Zhihai face and opportunities.
As long as Cheng Zhihai can find the missing prince's whereabouts within three months, then the lantern holder can still be kept in his hands. If not, then the Emperor of Zhou cannot be blamed for being ruthless.The two people in the room stopped talking.
They are worried, they are worried!
They didn't think that Cheng Zhihai, them, or the entire Deng Zhi Division would be able to find the missing prince in just three months.
I miss who the prince is.
But someone who has been dealing with the Emperor of Zhou Dynasty for decades, even if he is disqualified from inheriting the throne, can still hide in the dark and secretly plan to rebel.
Such a person is so smart!
Such a person is so weird!
It's not something they can simply find.
They just felt in their hearts that this matter was as difficult as climbing to the sky.
Cheng Zhihai was afraid that he would really leave the Lamp Holding Division.
When thinking of this, Qian Siyuan and the person next to him felt gloomy in their hearts, and their moods couldn't help but become depressed.
They knew that once Cheng Zhihai left the Deng-Zhou Division, the Deng-Zhou Division would no longer be their brother's Deng-Zhou Division, but would completely become an intelligence agency without any emotion for the Zhou Dynasty.
even though……
That's how it should be.
But for those of them, who have been trying to find a way for the human race since the founding of the Lantern Division, Cheng Zhihai's departure is impossible to accept.
But right now...
There is no other way.
The Emperor of Zhou Dynasty has given a deadline.
Three months!
Only three months left!
Qian Siyuan and the person beside him already felt a little more sense of urgency in their hearts.
They didn't say anything more to Cheng Zhihai, and after chatting for a few more words, they hurriedly turned and left, already wanting to quickly find out the whereabouts of the missing prince.
The only way they wanted to keep Cheng Zhihai in the Lantern Division was to find the missing prince as soon as possible within these three months.
If they can't find the missing prince, then no matter how many ways they think of, no matter how much love they ask the Emperor of Zhou, it will have no effect.
Qian Siyuan walked out of the hall quickly. After he walked out of the hall, he saw Cheng Guang's figure. When he saw Cheng Guang, he was slightly stunned, then a gentle smile appeared on his slightly stiff face, and he nodded slightly towards Cheng Guang. , and then left quickly.
Li Zhengyang, who was following Qian Siyuan, also noticed Cheng Guang. This was the first time he saw Cheng Guang in the lamp holding department, and his face showed a little surprise.
"Sir."
Li Zhengyang looked at Cheng Guang for a few times, with a hint of admiration in his eyes: "Your Majesty, I passed the martial arts competition. Your Majesty's skills are not simple. I admire him very much."
"I still have something to do, so I won't disturb the prince."
Li Zhengyang glanced at Cheng Guang for a few times and left quickly.
While Li Zhengyang was sizing up Cheng Guang, Cheng Guang was also sizing up Li Zhengyang.
Li Zhengyang is also one of the deputy directors of the Lamp Holding Department. He is upright and full of righteousness. If he is placed in the court, he will definitely be a public official similar to Wei Zheng.
Li Zhengyang's character is exactly the same as his appearance. He is upright and comes from a poor family. Therefore, he has to take care of every incident where the powerful oppress the poor family.
Originally, the lamp holder was not popular in the eyes of many powerful people.
And because of Li Zhengyang's existence, the lamp bearer has completely become a thorn in the eyes and flesh of many powerful people.
but……
Cheng Guang knew that it was because of the existence of people like Li Zhengyang that the Deng Holder could be called the Deng Holder.
Otherwise, how can we find a way out for the human race?
In a world where only the rich and powerful exist, and where poor families cannot get ahead, there is not much hope.
Cheng Guang watched Qian Siyuan and Li Zhengyang disappear, slowly withdrew his gaze and walked towards the main hall.
Seeing the slightly sad and lonely Cheng Zhihai in the main hall, he couldn't help but smile.
Although Cheng Zhihai, Qian Siyuan and Li Zhengyang are now worried about how to find the missing prince, Cheng Guang knows that the missing prince should be found in the end.
Otherwise, the lamp-bearing division would not still be in the hands of the real prince in the future, and would have been completely taken back by the Emperor of Zhou.
But even if the missing prince was found, it must have taken a long time, and after Cheng Zhihai's death, the missing prince was not completely eliminated, so even if the lantern holder is still in the hands of the real prince in the future, It's not of much use either.
The Emperor of the Zhou Dynasty may have supported another organization similar to the Lantern Holding Division.
Cheng Guang was thinking in his mind and said to Cheng Zhihai, "Dad."
Cheng Zhihai heard Cheng Guang's voice and quickly turned his head to look at Cheng Guang. His worried expression was instantly suppressed by him, and a faint smile appeared on his face.
"Guang'er, why are you here today?"
"Come on, are you thirsty? Come and have some tea."
Cheng Zhihai said, asked Cheng Guang to sit down, and poured Cheng Guang a cup of refreshing tea himself.
Cheng Guang didn't have much thought about drinking tea at this time. He shook his head slightly, looked at Cheng Zhihai and said, "Dad, what Uncle Qian and Uncle Li just said..."
Cheng Guang said halfway, Cheng Zhihai's face became a little embarrassed.
"Guang'er, you heard me."
Cheng Guang nodded.
Seeing that Cheng Guang was still staring at him, Cheng Zhihai knew that Cheng Guang wanted to know the whole story, and he was not going to hide it from Cheng Guang. After sitting down, he also poured himself a cup of tea, took a slow sip, and put down the teacup. , looking at Cheng Guang.
"Guang'er, the status of our Zhenguo Palace is very special in the Great Zhou Dynasty, very special."
"Your grandfather is the Duke of the Kingdom and controls millions of troops in the realm. Even if your grandfather has no thoughts of treason, this military power cannot be ignored in any dynasty."
"What's more, the millions of Northern Expeditionary troops only recognize the orders of our Zhenguo Government. Even if the emperor comes in person, the millions of Northern Expeditionary troops will not pay attention to him. Therefore, the emperor always remains vigilant towards our Zhenguo Government. .”
"In addition, the officials of the imperial court have become more and more dissatisfied with the Zhenguo Palace because of the actions of the Lantern Division. They have not only submitted memorials to the emperor to weaken the power of the Zhenguo Palace."
"Your grandfather couldn't move, so the emperor wanted to move me."
"So, it was within my expectation that the emperor would want to replace me. Fortunately, he would also take my face into consideration and give me a chance."
Speaking of this, Cheng Zhihai looked at Cheng Guang, with a doting smile on his face, and reached out to rub Cheng Guang's head.
"So, Guang'er, don't worry. Although the Lantern Division is an institution of the imperial court, it is also a business built by me. I will not let the emperor take away this future legacy for you easily."
Cheng Guang didn't care about this. The name "Lamp Holder" was not important, as long as the person holding the lights was still there.
Even if the lantern holder is taken away by the emperor, as long as the lantern holder is still there, he is still willing to follow Cheng Zhihai. If the person is there, then the lantern holder will be there.
In Cheng Guang's view, what truly has a soul for an organization is not just an empty name or a powerful person. Talent is the key.
Of course, power is actually very important. If there is no power, even if there are only one person, there is no power to implement it, and no one is willing to listen to what you and others say, it will not have much effect.
Cheng Guang picked up the tea cup, poured himself a sip of tea, nodded silently, and said, "Dad, haven't I passed the entry examination of the Lantern Holding Division? I want to join the Lantern Holding Division and do some tasks."
When Cheng Zhihai heard what Cheng Guang said, his eyes were stunned, and his majestic eyes seemed a little dazed.
Obviously he didn't expect that Cheng Guang would say such a thing.
"Guang'er... you... why do you suddenly want to do a mission?"
"I've prepared your next mission, but I haven't completed it for you yet. Just wait until dad has paved the road for you before you leave."
Good guy, you don’t want me to lie down all the way and climb directly to the top of the lamp-bearing department.
The corner of Cheng Guang's mouth twitched slightly, but he still underestimated Cheng Zhihai's doting on him.
As a co-author, I don’t want to suffer at all.
Even the task of carrying out the lighting department, I just want to wait until it is completed before I can receive the merit.
Although this was indeed very satisfying, if he didn't miss the prince, or in other words, if there was no such thing as King Nanming, Cheng Guang wouldn't bother messing around.
Just practice obediently at home and improve your cultivation strength. Wouldn't it be nice to wait for Cheng Zhihai to complete the tasks for you and then come over to take credit for your promotion?
Cheng Guang sighed. The situation in front of him no longer allowed him to continue.
Cheng Guang faced Cheng Zhihai, shook his head and said, "Dad, no."
"I want to complete the task of holding the lamp on my own, and I also want to help you find out the whereabouts of the missing prince."
When Cheng Zhihai heard Cheng Guang's words, the corners of his mouth couldn't hold back.
After handling the case for many years, the Damp Holder, who is famous for monitoring the world, may not be able to guarantee that he will be able to find out the whereabouts of the missing prince. You brat, you are messing around without anything.
Cheng Zhihai immediately wanted to refuse Cheng Guang's revelation, but he saw the determination in Cheng Guang's eyes. It seemed that if he didn't agree, Cheng Guang would not give up today.
Cheng Zhihai was stunned again when he saw Cheng Guang's expression.
He has never seen such a look in Cheng Guang's eyes.
Could it be that Cheng Guang really wanted to help him find out the whereabouts of the missing prince, and wasn't he just having fun?
Cheng Zhihai pondered for a moment and nodded slowly.
"Okay, since Guang'er you want to investigate, then go and investigate. I will assign you a few people. This investigation will miss the crown prince, so it will be your first task after joining the Lantern Division."
With that said, Cheng Zhihai took out a black iron-colored lamp holding commander badge.
"Our lighting department is divided into three levels. Let's not talk about the non-staff personnel for the moment. The staff, that is, the formal staff, is divided into three levels, namely, the black light agent, the white light agent, the silver light agent, and finally The golden lantern catches the fast one.”
"Further up, there are the director and deputy director."
"You were just a black light agent when you first joined the Lantern Division, so there aren't many people available to support you. For the time being, let's take a few young non-staff members to find out the whereabouts of the missing prince."
"After you find out, report it directly to me. Do you understand?"
When Cheng Zhihai said the last sentence, his majestic face could no longer hold back the smile, and his face was filled with a bright smile.
It seems that in his opinion, it is impossible for Cheng Guang to find out the missing prince.
Cheng Guang also knew what Cheng Zhihai was thinking, and he obviously didn't trust him.
Cheng Guang himself didn't need Cheng Zhihai to believe him, he just needed such a channel.
Let Cheng Zhihai, or rather, the Emperor of Zhou behind Cheng Zhihai, and other relevant people know that he is investigating.
In this way, even if he didn't find out anything, he could complete the task as long as he made up a suitable reason and reported to Cheng Zhihai the whereabouts of the missing prince.
It can also ruin the plan of remembering the prince.
Regardless of the process, at least his goal was achieved.
Cheng Guang didn't care at all about the process.
After taking the token from Cheng Zhihai, he left the hall directly.
I don't want to talk to Cheng Zhihai who doesn't believe in me so much.
This old man has become unlovable inexplicably.
Ugh.
Cheng Guang shook his head and sighed.
After he walked out of the hall.
Cheng Zhihai also looked away from Cheng Guang.
He picked up the teacup, gently swirled the clear tea in the teacup, blew on the white mist at the mouth of the teacup, took a sip, and moistened his throat.
He looked slightly thoughtful, with an inexplicable luster shining in his eyes.
"Yeah, why didn't I think that finding out the whereabouts of the missing prince would be a big credit. If I could transfer the credit for finding out the whereabouts of the missing prince to Guang'er, Guang'er only relies on such a credit , you can be directly promoted to Silver Lantern Agent."
"If I keep fighting hard, it's not impossible to be directly promoted to Golden Lantern Agent."
"Hey! One step is right. No matter how hard I work in the future, it is not impossible for Guang'er to be promoted to my position within two or three years."
"When the time comes, I will hand over the lamp holder to Guang'er, and I will go to other places to shine for Guang'er."
As he spoke, a slight smile appeared on Cheng Zhihai's face, and the smile gradually became stronger.
Smiling, he also began to move, looking through the desk and the intelligence information reported from the branch halls of the lighting divisions in various places.
Trying to find a missed prince who had not appeared for decades in the vast territory of the Zhou Dynasty was almost like looking for a needle in a haystack.
Cheng Zhihai can only work hard now, and he can only rely on perseverance to check and find it.
He didn't believe it. How could a person who missed the prince hide somewhere? Even if it was at the end of the world, he would dig out the missing prince.
Cheng Zhihai quickly flipped through the book. Time passed quickly as he browsed intelligence information from various places. He picked up the teacup and took a sip from time to time.
a cup of tea.
all day.
——"The Struggled Old Father"
…………
Cheng Guang didn't know anything about Cheng Zhihai's behavior, and he started his own actions at this time.
Now that he was a black light agent, Cheng Guang first went to the reporting office of the Lighting Department and received a suit of clothes.
The clothes of the lamp bearers are all exquisite, mainly in dark tones, made of rare silks and unique fabrics, and embroidered with complex patterns. These patterns will emit a faint light at night, like stars shining in the dark night. Faintly visible.
The clothes are designed with great attention to detail, and each piece is carefully crafted by hand.
The collar is inlaid with silver satin, the cuffs are hooked with golden silk thread, and a wide belt is tied around the waist with a black-edged lantern buckle on it, which is the logo of the lamp holder.
A black light will have a black edge, a white light will have a white edge, and so on. The lantern buckle on the top of the light will have the same edge.
The highest-level director and deputy director are in the low-key and noble platinum flame color.
Cheng Guang found a place and after changing into clothes, he looked at himself and felt that he looked quite handsome.
He has a handsome face and looks good in any clothes. When he puts on the clothes of the lamp bearer, he has an inexplicable aura about him.
It is worth mentioning that although Cheng Guang is just a black lantern agent, even the white lantern agents and even the silver lantern agents who occasionally pass by do not look down upon or look down upon.
This is not because Cheng Guang is the crown prince, but because the Deng Holding Department does not despise or look down on anyone because of their official position.
This is quite good in Cheng Guang's opinion.
Although the Deng-Zhou Division is also a small officialdom, it is still inexplicably different from the officialdom of the imperial court.
They don't compete for power. In the Lantern Division, if you want to be promoted, promoted, and gain more resources and power, you must work hard to complete tasks and obtain more intelligence.
Everything is divided according to your efforts.
So everyone is busy doing tasks, so why bother to ignore this or that.
Today you are a white light and I am a black light. Maybe tomorrow I will be a white light, but the day after tomorrow I will still be a silver light.
One day at a time.
Changes were rapid, unlike within the Zhou Dynasty, where there were factional struggles and nepotism.
Among the lampbearers, there is absolutely no such thing.
Cheng Guang walked to the mission hall of the Damp Holder and entered the mission hall. There was a lot of mission information in the mission hall. The first one was to find the whereabouts of the missing prince.
Moreover, this task is at the highest level and in the most conspicuous position.
Anyone can pick up.
As long as you can provide the missing prince's whereabouts, even if it's vague information, not specific information, it's okay.
You can still get a lot of merit.
So now most of the agents in the Lantern Division have accepted this mission and received some intelligence information related to the memory of the prince.
Even if you don't finish it later, it doesn't matter. It's good to chase your dream.
What if.
If you accidentally learn about the whereabouts of the missing prince, you can come over and submit the task as soon as possible and get a lot of merit.
Merit is still quite important in the Lamp Holding Division.
Not only can you use it to improve your position, you can also use your merits to exchange for some resources.
Cheng Guang walked to the counter and looked at one of the tired-looking old men. Before he could speak, the old man threw a volume in his hand to Cheng Guang.
"Okay, you don't have to say anything. Old man, I know you want to receive the task of commemorating the prince."
"Hey, young people today are more unstable than the last. Is it so easy to find a missing prince?"
"The director was released just to find a needle in a haystack. He didn't expect you black lantern boys to find it. It's better to complete other tasks properly and leave this task to the golden lantern or silver lantern agents. "
The old man didn't even raise his head. After he finished speaking, he waved his hand and wanted to drive people away.
Cheng Guang couldn't help but laugh when he saw this, "Old man, I want to ask, if a black light agent like me needs help, where can I get it?"
The old man didn't want to hear Cheng Guang calling him old man.
"Hey! You young man, why are you so rude? Although I am a little old, you can't call me old man. At least you should call me uncle, or something else, you know?"
After the old man finished speaking, he raised his head and wanted to say something else. When he raised his head, he saw Cheng Guang's face, and his expression instantly froze.
His eyes widened, and he made a sound of "uh huh" from his throat.
Can't say anything.
