SFS 0378: Undoubtedly Courting Death.
0378: Undoubtedly Courting Death.
The morning light is faint, and the cold wind is whistling.
After finishing breakfast, Qiao Ji took Lei Nai and left the courtyard in Xili District, heading towards a beef noodle shop in Yanze District.
In the carriage.
Lei Nai was still yawning from time to time, and lazily said, "Master, it's really comfortable to sleep in winter.
It snowed all night in the imperial capital last night, and there were two warm charcoal pots in the room of the black cat girl, mainly because she was really afraid of the cold.
"No matter how warm it is, check whether the windows are open for ventilation before going to bed." Qiao Ji reminded.
He still remembers that on the other side of the earth, there are often accidents of burning charcoal for heating in winter and not opening windows, which leads to carbon monoxide poisoning accidents.
"My lord, I remember it." Lei Nai didn't dare to be vague.
She had heard from Qiao Ji that burning charcoal for heating without ventilation would cause poisoning, and she carefully checked whether her windows were open every night.
"You can wear the cloak that Xiaoxue sewed in two days." Qiao Ji rubbed the black cat girl's head.
Since participating in the Battle of Pingdingshan Fortress, they hunted and killed many ferocious carnivores along the way, such as bears, tigers, wolves and so on.
Of course, the meat is roasted and eaten directly, and the fur is peeled off to make cloaks, coats and the like.
"Let's leave it to the lord, it's the coldest time recently." Lei Suo waved his hand and said.
"I already have a black bear and a tiger cloak, and I can't wear so many. 960" Qiao Ji smiled slightly.
He reached out to help the black cat girl straighten her coat, and said softly, "If you are afraid of the cold, you should prepare more."
"Yes." Lei Nai felt the warmth in his heart, and his pretty face was covered with a faint blush.
"Tat Tat Tat..."
The two chatted on the carriage for half an hour, and the carriage stopped in front of a beef noodle shop in Yanze District under the driving of Shi Duo.
Qiao Ji stepped out of the carriage, and walked up to the second floor exclusive to nobles from the back door of the raw meat noodle shop.
He saw Chiying and Shanzhe sitting in the corner at a glance. Both of them were not wearing armor today, but were dressed in casual clothes.
"Team leader." Chi Ying and Shan Zhe stood up abruptly.
"Relax, sit." Qiao Ji smiled and raised her hand to press down, and stepped to the table to sit down.
Shan Zhe looked at Qiao Ji with a smirk, and praised excitedly, "Team leader, you are really handsome in the battle of Pingdingshan Fortress."
The glorious deeds of Qiao Ji leading 10,000 soldiers to recapture more than a dozen cities and helping Duke Pember from the siege have already spread throughout the Inspection Division.
Especially those knights who were lucky enough to work with Qiao Ji, they were all very proud.
"Congratulations to the team leader for being promoted to the rank." Chiying smiled faintly.
"Ha ha.………"
Qiao Ji just smiled heartily and asked, "Is it going well recently? Has the Second Prince's people targeted you?"
"Second Prince's people in the inspection department have been cleared out a lot, and he doesn't dare to act recklessly for the time being." Chi Ying said coldly.
Since she was promoted to the squadron leader, she also has a general understanding of the distribution and composition of the forces in the patrol.
The captain of the four squadrons, she is on Qiao Ji's side, and Dai Xiu is neutral, and one of the other two is guessed to be the second prince. "The last ten Chi Lei don't know who they are.
The two captains are at odds with each other, and they also have their own small factions, which do not belong to either of the two princes for the time being.
The governor of the inspection department is the emperor's man, and he controls and promotes a lot of people, and he is very good at balancing the internal fighting in the inspection department.
"And the two captains intend to weaken the people under the two princes. The two princes have been angry for a long time because of this matter, and they don't care about us for the time being. Shanhua scratched the back of his head and said with a smile.
"That's good." Qiao Ji breathed a sigh of relief.
In fact, the main reason was that he was more careful not to let Chi Ying and Shan Zhe touch him blatantly, which made the inspectors think that they were neutral.
Qiao Ji looked sideways at Lei Nai, and the black cat girl immediately nodded and took out a few blank papers from her bag.
He took one of the blank papers and put one of them on the table and pushed it over. He said in a deep voice, "The above is the list of candidates for the martial arts test. If they are successfully admitted to the Inspection Division, it will be of great help to you."
The new round (bidi) of the martial arts test is scheduled for three days later, and the list of participating in the martial arts test was prepared by him long ago.
Those candidates are all carefully selected from the training knights. Apart from good skills, they have a clean background, have family members helping Qiao Ji work, and more importantly, they are loyal and can be used with confidence.
"Team leader, don't worry, we know what to do." Shanzhe picked up the list and took a rough look.
Chiying also nodded slightly, and said calmly, "With these people joining, some things will be done more smoothly."
"I'm going to the territory in a few days, you guys remember to take care of the newcomers." Qiao Ji folded his hands on the table.
"How long will the team leader go to the territory?" Shanzhe asked, blinking his small eyes slowly.
"I haven't actually seen the situation in the territory. The shortest is one or two months, and the longest is half a year. I will come back as soon as I make plans." Qiao Ji shook his head lightly and said.
"Team leader, be careful." Chi Ying looked at Qiao Ji worriedly.
Shan Zhe smiled innocently, raised his chin slightly and said, "Leader, I will let people watch your property, and I will never let those nobles mess around."
"You too." Qiao Ji was very relieved of the two of them.
He also pushed out the other blank sheets of paper, and said solemnly, this is the evidence of a real crime committed by some nobles.
This list of criminals is Qiao Ji's belated revenge for those nobles spying on the Holy League and Baihua Manor. The Misty Court has collected it for a long time, and the Holy League is also involved.
Chi Ying picked up the blueprint from the table and glanced at it, and said in surprise, "Leader, this is..."
"You guys can use this list to accumulate some merits while I'm away from the territory." Qiao Xing blinked his sharp eyes slowly.
"Thank you, Team Leader." Shanzhe smiled excitedly.
The two of them are now the fourth-rank knights, and the things they can touch are still limited. If they are promoted to the third-rank knights, they will almost be able to enter the upper middle class of power.
"Remember, it's enough to take action once or twice a month, don't make too many enemies at once." Qiao Ji said cautiously.
He picked up a cup of hot water and took a sip, and added, "We can properly distribute a little credit to Dai Xiu, or the knights under him, and recruit a group of people to fight against those nobles.
The list given by Qiao Ji is destined to offend a large group of nobles from Chi Ying and Shan Zhe, and if they don’t form cliques at this time, they will undoubtedly seek death.
Dai Xiu's reputation is still very good in the imperial capital, if he can be dragged into the water, it will only be good for Chiying and not bad.
"Understood." Chiying and Shanzhe also showed serious expressions.
