Xu Qi ‘an was happy about the development of his fish pond business.
After taking care of the items, Xu Qi ‘an left the room and went to Yang Yan’s room. He said in a deep voice, ‘”‘Boss, I have something to discuss with everyone. How about we discuss it here?”
Yang Yan, who was still meditating, frowned when he heard this. He instinctively felt disgusted that his cultivation was disturbed, but he still nodded slowly. “Sure.”
Xu Qi ‘an immediately ordered a silver Gong to invite Chu Xianglong and the officials of the three departments to the room.
After sitting quietly at the table for a few minutes, the officials of the three departments and Chu Xianglong came in one after another. Naturally, they didn’t give Xu Qi ‘an a good look and kept silent with cold faces.
One of the two imperial censors, who was used to mediating, smiled and said,
“”Lord Xu, why have you summoned us?”
“I’m going to change the route and take the land route.”
Xu Qi ‘an’s words were shocking. He threw out shocking news at the beginning.
“This is impossible!”
Chu Xianglong was the first to object, his tone firm.
Having learned his lesson last time, he didn’t continue to argue with Xu Qi ‘an. He stood with his hands behind his back, showing an uncompromising posture.
“Lord Xu, please don’t make a scene. In another ten days, we will reach Chu
Zhou. If we travel by land, we might not even get there in half a month.” The
Deputy of the Supreme Court snorted,
“Although you’re the organizer, you can’t do whatever you want.”
Under normal orders, they could accommodate and tolerate Xu Qi ‘an, acknowledging his status and prestige as the organizer. But this didn’t include changing the route at will.
It was too troublesome to change the water route to the land route. They had to arrange horses, carriages, and transport vehicles. After all, it was impossible for the two hundred people to travel light. That was why the diplomatic mission had chosen the faster and more convenient water route.
Secondly, in a war, only the highest-ranking general could change the route. Although the diplomatic mission was not an Army, changing their route was still a big taboo.
Constable Chen from the Ministry of Justice looked at Yang Yan and said in a deep voice, “‘Yang Jinluo, what do you think?”
Yang Yan was expressionless. it’s indeed inappropriate.
Even Yang Yan, who was the night watchman, did not agree with Xu Qi ‘an’s decision. It could be imagined that if he insisted on doing things his own way, he would be looking for trouble. Even the other night watchmen would not support him.
“Hmph!”
Hmph! Chu Xianglong snorted. it’s nothing. I’ll go back first. Don’t have such brainless thoughts in the future.
The head constable of the Ministry of Justice looked at Xu Qi ‘an and said, “”General Ying, please wait. Why don’t you listen to what Lord Xu has to say?”
Chu Xianglong turned around and looked at him in surprise.
