Chapter 7: Offering Suggestions and Strategies

Just as he stepped out of the imperial prison, a carriage suddenly approached on the street. A delicate hand reached out from within the carriage, beckoning, "Fool, hurry up!" Yi Tusheng glanced and noticed the words 'Yihong Weicui Pavilion' written on the curtain of the sedan. He chuckled to himself, quickened his pace, took two steps, leaped onto the carriage shaft, and slipped into the carriage.

Wei Zongxian shouted in exasperation: "You, a mere junior official of the Ministry of Works, do not think about how to construct, yet dare to slander me. If I do not beat you to death today, my resentment will not be alleviated!"

Yitu Sheng enjoyed her fullness and reluctantly nodded, saying: "Alright, I will agree to you this time, but ten taels of silver are indispensable."

Ji Qian pulled him close and looked up at him, saying: "I have been looking for you all day, it turns out you have been promoted!"

This Six Gentlemen is not the Six Gentlemen of the Wuxu year; everyone must not confuse the two

In the capital, Yi Hong Wei Cui Pavilion is at best considered a second-rate brothel. Although Ji Qian is the top courtesan, her beauty is merely average; however, her figure is quite alluring, and she can be considered gentle in front of Yi Tusheng

"Ji Qian, why are you looking for me at this time!" Ji Qian is a courtesan from the Yihong Weicui Pavilion, who had been passionately involved with Yi Tusheng for a while.

The carriage sped forward, moving swiftly. Amidst the bumps, Yi Tu let out a bitter smile and said, "This is indeed a good opportunity, but when it comes to such matters of the court, I am at a loss, unless—unless—"

Tian Ji pulled Yi Tusheng outside, boarded the carriage, and then slowly said: "After the Supervisor returned to the Eastern Depot, he was furious but helpless. I heard that just now, Marquis Zhu Guobi of Funing and Minister Hu Shishang took advantage of the situation to report him again, claiming that he disregarded the Emperor, was corrupt and unjust, acted on his own authority with imperial edicts, conspired to usurp the throne, and demanded that the Emperor expel him from the capital! The Supervisor was somewhat frightened and announced that whoever could resolve this crisis would be appointed as a commander. Don't you think this is a great opportunity for your brother?"

Yitu felt a sudden tightness in his scalp, and Tian Ji said: "Wait here!"

A little eunuch ran out and said to Yi Tusheng, "The supervisor wants to see you in the inner hall, go through the side door!" Yi Tusheng, unsure of what scheme Tian Ji was up to, had no choice but to follow the little eunuch with the whisk and entered the inner hall through the side door

Yang Lian reported the twenty-four major crimes of Wei Zongxian, and Yi Tusheng had long been aware of this. He also knew that the six individuals mentioned above were later harmed to death by Wei Zongxian, collectively referred to as the 'Six Gentlemen'

Tian Ji said with a grim expression: "A major incident has occurred. During this morning's court session, Vice Minister of the Left Yang Lian, in conjunction with Censor Zuo Guangdou, Censor Yuan Huazhong, Deputy Minister of the Imperial Household Zhou Chaoduan, Vice Envoy of Shanxi Gu Dazhang, and Censor Wei Dazhong from the Ministry of Personnel, jointly submitted a memorial accusing Supervisor Wei Zongxian of twenty-four major crimes, demanding that the Emperor impose severe punishment. The capital is currently in turmoil, as if the heavens and the earth have turned upside down, and everyone is changing color!"

Wei Zhongxian said eagerly: "Speak up!"

Tian Jiduo said: "What time is it now, still speaking hesitantly? There are no outsiders here, so feel free to speak!"

Tian Ji whispered outside the door: "This person is Wan Zao, an official in the Ministry of Works. He wanted to take advantage of the situation while everyone was accusing the governor, but he was caught by the governor here, who said he would be 'beaten to death.' This means to be beaten to death in a literal sense."

Wei Zongxian was in the hall, furiously throwing a tantrum, having smashed over ten teacups. Below the hall, there was a person about to be beaten to death by the court's punishment.

Yi Tusheng felt a powerful vital energy circulating within Tian Ji, indicating that he was also a master

Tian Ji patted the back of his hand and said, "Whether I can be promoted and become wealthy depends entirely on you." He forcibly dragged him inside.

Yi Tusheng thought to himself that Tian Ji was truly reckless; his own plan was not yet mature, so how could he have let it slip? At this point, there was no turning back, and he could only brace himself to speak: "Your Excellency, this subordinate's plan is exceedingly simple—"

Tian Ji rushed over in such a hurry, which surprised Yi Tusheng. For such a significant matter, what assistance could a mere foreman like him possibly provide

Amidst the densely packed writings, not only were martial arts secrets recorded, but also the life of Wei Chao and his entanglements with Wei Zongxian and the Ke family. Yi Tusheng read from beginning to end, ultimately focusing on a peculiar technique known as the Blood Point Interception, which was developed during Wei Chao's management of the Northern Town Pacification Office. This technique was used to coerce confessions from criminals. That evening, Yi Tusheng began to practice according to the incantations of the Taiyin Divine Skill, allowing his true energy to flow through the Governor Vessel, ultimately storing it within the Dantian's Qi Sea. After traversing the Twelve Heavy Towers and completing a full cycle of the celestial circuit, his body felt extraordinarily relaxed. Although he had not slept all night, he felt more invigorated than if he had rested for an entire night. At this moment, Yi Tusheng finally believed that ancient China indeed possessed skills such as lightness of body, internal energy, and sword techniques.

For an entire month, Yi Tusheng had been spending the nights at the Yihong Weicui Pavilion. During the day, he continued his duties as a member of the Imperial Guard, but at night he intensified his training. He had already broken through the first layer of the Eightfold Taiyin Divine Skill, feeling as if he had been reborn, filled with strength

Yitu Sheng lifted her and placed her on his lap, kissing her red lips. Ji Qian responded passionately, her body twisting like a water snake. Once a woman enters a brothel, she transforms into a bold woman, and Ji Qian's boldness surpasses that of modern beauties

Yi Tu sat down on the chair with a stiff demeanor, yet still kept his head lowered

Yi Tusheng nodded slightly, standing properly at the door waiting

Wei Zongxian said: "Tian Qianhu mentioned that you have thought of a strategy that can help me overcome this crisis. Now that there are no outsiders present, you may speak freely. If your words are correct, there will be substantial rewards!"

On that clear morning, Yi Tusheng was just about to leave for work when Tian Ji rushed in ahead of him, disregarding Ji Qian's disheveled appearance, and pulled Yi Tusheng out the door.

Yitu Sheng asked in confusion, "What happened?"

After Tian Ji entered, he whispered a few words in Wei Zongxian's ear. A look of joy appeared on Wei Zongxian's face as he turned and followed Tian Ji into the inner chamber

It is evident that there must be many skilled martial artists and assassins among the Jinyiwei, but they simply have not had the opportunity to be seen. Not to mention others, Wei Zongxian alone exudes a chilling aura, with prominent temples and eyes that shine with a piercing light. According to the records in the secret manual, these are all signs of a martial arts master

He got up from the bed, glanced at Ji Qian's weary sleeping posture, and Yi Tusheng smiled faintly. He lit the oil lamp by the window, and in the flickering light, he opened the long robe gifted by Wei Chao.

A courtesan, dressed in a short-sleeved garment that revealed her full, rounded thighs, was eagerly welcoming him with her bright eyes. Yi Tusheng thought to himself, as expected of a courtesan, she has undressed like this to avoid the heat

Ji Qian twisted her delicate body, pressing her ample bosom against his, making it difficult for him to breathe. She provocatively swayed her voluptuous hips a couple of times and softly said, "I beg you, I have truly felt empty and lonely these past few days. Therefore, no matter what price you offer, I will satisfy you. What do you say?" Ji Qian bit her lip, her expression tense

Yi Tusheng stretched lazily, jumped up from the chair, and discovered Ji Qian half-naked, lying on the bed in deep sleep, resembling a pure white begonia. In a good mood, he couldn't help but feel a surge of desire, and thus he pounced again.

When Yi Tusheng opened his eyes, it was already morning, and he had unknowingly practiced for three to four hours.

Wei Zongxian was just idly waiting there. Upon seeing him enter, he surprisingly stood up as an exception, smilingly pointing to a chair beside him and saying: "Sit!"

Yitu Sheng, taken aback, bowed and said: "In front of the Supervisor, https://m.hetushu.com, that is where my subordinate's seat is!"

Ji Qian gently kissed him on the lips and said, "No problem!"

The carriage stopped in front, and the coachman said, "The Eastern Depot has arrived!" Tian Ji pulled Yi Tusheng down from the carriage.

Yi Tusheng said: "Unless Yang Lian and Zuo Guangdou are assassinated." Tian Ji replied: "The memorial has already been submitted, and the whole country is aware of this matter. Even if we were to kill to silence them, it would be too late." Yi Tusheng said sternly: "If we cannot do it covertly, then we shall do it overtly. I have a plan that can resolve this predicament"

Over time, the Jinyiwei in the imperial prison became aware that Yi Tusheng had developed an infatuation with the red courtesan Ji Qian from the Yihong Weicui Pavilion, and whenever there was an urgent matter, they would go there to find him

Yitu Sheng is currently financially constrained, with pockets emptier than his face. As long as he can make money, he would not mind resorting to male charm. However, he still needs to whet Ji Qian's appetite while simultaneously raising the price. "Perhaps not, I still have official business to attend to"

Wei Zongxian let out a cold snort and said, "You sit when I tell you to sit!"

In this regard, Ji Qian felt it most deeply. For some reason, Wei Zhao's internal power could enhance a man's abilities. Every time Yi Tusheng increased a level of skill, Ji Qian's pleasure would correspondingly extend for a period of time. Yi Tusheng found this utterly perplexing.

Ji Qian broke free from Yi Tu's powerful embrace, her hands hanging around his sturdy neck, her delicate face flushed with a captivating crimson. She spoke hurriedly: "Ever since you came, I have lost the desire to entertain others. There is no one in the world who can compare to your strength. Come, let us go to my place, where I will serve you well, with generous rewards!"
