Chapter 219 - Visage Of The Saint (1/2)

“Ah, father, isn’t it not good for you to say these words?”

“Especially in front of me…”

Li Tongzhou stared at his father in front of him with his mouth agape. For a moment, he was very surprised.

On the contrary, it was Prime Minister Li Jiqing who looked at Li Tongzhou as if it was a matter of course.

“What do you understand? Your father’s trick is the reason why I have been able to survive in the officialdom for so many years, and I am even managing to survive like a fish in water.”

Looking at his father’s disgusted gaze, Li Tongzhou’s heart was also filled with disgust.

It’s precisely because of you black-hearted fellows that I don’t have the slightest interest in matters in the officialdom of the Yan Shen Empire!

“Alright, son, you can go back first. Father will think about this matter today and head to the palace in the afternoon to face the Yan Shen Saint directly. After that, the orders will be sent to the deputy of the Supreme Court, Chen Younian.”

“Around tomorrow morning, the Fang Yuan that you mentioned will be released from the Supreme Court. When the time comes, you can bring your little friends to welcome him.”

Prime Minister Li Jiqing’s expression was calm. He sat on the spot and started thinking, and he waved his hand at Li Tongzhou and pointed at the door.

“Oh right, father, you continue thinking here, I will go back and tell my friends about the matter of finding the members of the Moon Worship Sect, and also pass this good news to the Gu Immortal Sect. They will be happy!”

Li Tongzhou also had his own plans, and he spoke to Prime Minister Li Jiqing before leaving the imperial palace.

At this time, Gu Tianqing, Qin Han, Zhou Chang and the others were still in the Gu Immortal Sect’s residence. They were like ants on a hot pan, walking around anxiously. They wanted to contribute to the matter of Fang Yuan getting out of prison. They wanted to contribute their own strength.

Unfortunately, they were good at fighting, but they were useless in such scheming Imperial Court matters!

Gu Tianqing wanted to push the people in the clan to complete this matter, but after returning to the Gu clan, he was told that the clan’s patriarch and the others had other matters to attend. Tthey had already gathered in the relevant organizations of the Yan Shen Empire.

Not long after, Li Tongzhou sent a servant to the Gu Immortal Sect’s headquarters. He sent a secret letter and left quietly.

And this letter, as expected, came before the Gu Immortal Sect disciples.

Gu Tianqing, Qin Han, Zhou Chang, Ruan Qinghe, Gu Yuange, Bing Ning, Yao Guang and the others read the letter carefully after opening it, and only then did they relax.

“No wonder Fang Yuan was so confident when he was arrested!”

“So he had already thought of a way out. I never thought that Fang Yuan would be able to find a big backer like Li Tongzhou in the capital of the Yan Shen Empire.”

Qin Han said in surprise.

At this moment, Zhou Chang added at the same time.

“Don’t look at this Li Tongzhou’s identity as ordinary. As far as I know, his father is the current prime minister in the capital of the Yan Shen Empire. He lives in the imperial palace nine out of ten days.”

“He has spent his entire life worrying for the Yan Shen Empire. Moreover, it is said that because of this matter, his son’s relationship with him is on the verge of breaking. I didn’t expect that this time, Li Tongzhou would be able to stand up for Fang Yuan and plead with the current prime minister.”

“What? There’s actually such a thing?”

Gu Tianqing was even more shocked than Qin Han as he looked at Zhou Chang and said.

After all, unlike others, the Gu family itself had a large number of businesses and arrangements in the capital, so it was very common to have a good graspon the relationships between the various official families in the capital.

And according to what he knew, ever since Prime Minister Li Jiqing took office, he had almost never done anything illegal. Even in private, his reputation was extremely good, and he had repeatedly, for the benefit of the people, went against government officials.

In the Yan Shen Saint’s eyes, he was a reliable person in name.

To think that this time, Li Tongzhou could actually persuade Prime Minister Li Jiqing to help Fang Yuan.

This was probably the reason why Fang Yuan could become the personal disciple of the Gu Immortal Sect’s sect master!

Gu Tianqing and the others could only smile bitterly as they looked at each other, shaking their heads. They did not understand when Fang Yuan had gotten in touch with Li Tongzhou, and even persuaded him to give up so much for them.

Just as the capital of the Yan Shen Empire was in turmoil, in the Imperial Palace, Prime Minister Li Jiqing walked out of his office and headed straight for the imperial study that the Yan Shen Saint was currently in.
