'Vice general?' Xu Tangran's mouth was agape and his eyes widened in shock. He thought he had misheard and stuttered, "Vice … Vice general?"
Yang Zhaoqing and Qian 'Er were shocked as well.' Milord wants this bootlicker to be a vice general? '
Yun Zhiqiu was also surprised, but she couldn't help but smile when she saw Xu Tangran's reaction.
Miao Yi glanced at him coldly. "What? Do you feel wronged being my assistant? But then again, your rank is higher than mine. It's a little unfair for you to be my assistant all the time. "
"Ah …" Xu Tangran snapped out of it and shook his head like a rattle drum. He quickly waved his hands and said, "No, no, no. It's my honor to be your assistant." It seemed like words weren't enough to express his gratitude, or maybe he was a little frightened by Miao Yi's sarcastic words. He lowered his body and knelt on one knee, spouting nonsense, "Milord, I won't be able to repay your kindness even if I work like a horse. I'm willing to swear that if I'm disloyal to you in the future, I will die a horrible death …"
A string of curses came out of his mouth, as if he couldn't even control himself.
'This guy really came!' The people in the room stared at him in shock, completely speechless.
Miao Yi's teeth hurt from listening to him. He couldn't bear to listen to some of the words. The flattery was a little too much. He quickly raised his hand and said, "Stop! "Are you done yet?" If you don't get up, I'll make you kneel here forever. "
"…" Xu Tangran's mouth froze, then he stood up awkwardly. Afraid that Miao Yi wouldn't be at ease, he couldn't help but add, "Everything I say comes from the bottom of my heart. If I'm lying, I will be punished by the heavens."
He had been telling the truth for so many years, and Miao Yi just took it as a compliment. He couldn't be bothered to continue the conversation, and said, "Pretend you don't know anything about Duke Yuan's matter. Don't reveal anything. Let me think about it."
"Yes!" Xu Tangran nodded. "I understand."
"You know the situation in the Alliance of Stars best. You will continue to be in charge of Virtue Assembly Hall. If there's anything, talk to Madam immediately. " Miao Yi pointed at Yun Zhiqiu. "Don't keep making such big surprises. I won't be able to handle it if things go wrong. Understand? "
"Yes, yes, yes. I was too impatient this time, and I didn't have much confidence in the beginning, so I acted on my own. However, I won't do it again in the future. In the future, I will definitely report to Madam about any matters, big or small. " Xu Tangran made the necessary arrangements without hesitation. Then, he cupped his fists at Yun Zhiqiu and said, "With Madam's supervision, I will not make any more mistakes. I hope Madam will give me more pointers."
Yun Zhiqiu smiled and said nothing.
"Alright, I won't delay your reunion as husband and wife any longer. Go back and rest first. Later, I'll have Zhao Qing introduce you to the newcomers in the manor." Miao Yi waved his hand, gesturing for him to leave.
"I'll take my leave first." Xu Tangran cupped his hands at him and then at the others. He retreated all the way to the door before turning to leave. He was extremely respectful and polite.
"This guy can't change his bad habits." Miao Yi sighed and shook his head as he sat down.
Qian 'Er stepped forward to pour him some tea. Yun Zhiqiu walked behind him and gently massaged his shoulders with just the right amount of strength. She smiled and said, "He has his own way of doing things. If you really force him to change, I'm afraid he'll only become anxious."
Miao Yi enjoyed the comfort on his shoulders. "I really didn't think he would dare to make a move on the Alliance of Stars."
Yun Zhiqiu said, "He probably had no other choice because you didn't give him any money. You didn't give him any money, and the situation in the phantom market is clear as day. How is he supposed to recruit people empty-handed? I'm too embarrassed to ask. He can't avoid resorting to some extreme measures. Otherwise, he won't be able to report back. No matter how the matter turns out, it will be a great contribution to uncover Lord Yuan's identity. Otherwise, the consequences will be unimaginable. "
"Mm!" Miao Yi slowly closed his eyes. He'd recruited such a troublesome person. It was enough to give him a headache. How was he supposed to get along with her?
Knowing that he must be having a headache right now, Yun Zhiqiu moved her slender fingers to his temples and gently massaged them in a very understanding manner.
Xu Tangran instantly relaxed as he walked out. He could finally relax after such a long period of tension. His footsteps were so light that he felt like he was about to fly. He felt like he was walking on air.
Vice Domain Chief? He hadn't even considered this position before. He didn't think it would be a problem for him to recruit so many experts. He was even worried that his position as Vice Commander would be taken by someone else, so he hurriedly came back. Keeping his position was the most important thing. If he could go one step further and become a Commander, he would already be happy. Who would have thought that His Excellency would actually promise him the position of Vice Domain Chief?
Vice Domain Chief! A domain chief was already a feudal vassal. If he became the deputy of a feudal vassal, then his authority would no longer be limited to a single planet, but the entire starry sky. In his early years in Heaven's Street, he didn't even dare to think about the position of Commander. Never in his wildest dreams would he have the possibility of becoming a Vice Domain Chief one day. If he really got this position, damn it, he would definitely bring Xue Linglong back to Heaven's Origin Planet for a stroll. He would make those people who looked down on him open their dog eyes wide.
Xu Tangran's heart was intoxicated when he thought about how those people who looked down on him would bow and scrape in front of him.
"Brother Xu." Yang Zhaoqing's voice came from behind.
Xu Tangran immediately woke up from his sweet dream. He turned around and quickly cupped his fists, asking politely, "Brother Yang, do you have any instructions for me?" He was polite to everyone now. Before the position of Vice Domain Chief was confirmed, he didn't dare to be careless in the slightest. If he offended someone and spoke ill of His Excellency, he would be done for. Especially the person in front of him, who was His Excellency's trusted aide. Naturally, he didn't dare to slight him.
Yang Zhaoqing chuckled, "Aren't you mocking me? You are going to be a Vice Domain Chief soon. You are going to be my superior soon. How would I dare to order you around? My subordinates aren't familiar with you. In order to avoid trouble, I came over to help you. "
"Ai! Brother Yang, what kind of relationship do you have with me? Calling me superior or not is too much. From now on, no matter what position you and I are in, we are brothers. Besides, it's not certain. Heaven Valley Palace might just send someone over. "Xu Tangran was modest. He was more or less worried about this.
Yang Zhaoqing placed an arm on his shoulder and both of them walked forward with their arms around each other's shoulders. Yang Zhaoqing transmitted his voice, "It is impossible for Heaven Valley Palace to send someone to be the Vice Domain Chief out of nowhere. Even if Heaven Valley Palace agrees, I'm afraid Master won't agree. The fruit that Master planted personally will not allow outsiders to pluck the peaches. Most importantly, the people below will not agree as well. If someone really comes, it would be good enough if he can keep his life and leave."
Xu Tangran glanced over and thought about the backgrounds of these people and suddenly understood, but he still said modestly, "Brother Yang, you're just trying to make fun of me. With my qualifications, the Heavenly Valley Palace might not agree to let me sit in that position."
Yang Zhaoqing, "You've followed His Excellency for so long. Don't you know His Excellency? If he can't do it, His Excellency won't easily open his mouth. Once he opens his mouth and makes a promise, he will certainly try his best to fight for it. Ghost City's difficult situation was turned around by His Excellency. Do you think this small matter can stump His Excellency? At the very least, Brother Xu can't miss out on the position of Main Town. "
Since Miao Yi had opened his mouth, he guessed that Xu Tangran's Vice Domain Chief position was already set in stone. It wasn't because Xu Tangran was about to become his superior that he was flattering Xu Tangran. He didn't need to do so. The secrets he knew were not something Xu Tangran could compare to. He knew that he was Miao Yi's true confidant. He also knew what kind of role he was by Miao Yi's side. He was a person who gave orders from the top and communicated with his subordinates. If he didn't have a good relationship with his subordinates, it would be disadvantageous for him in the future. So, he just did him a favor. It wouldn't affect anything.
And this was also the reason why Miao Yi put him in this position. Compared to Yan Xiu, Yan Xiu's loyalty was unquestionable. But in this aspect, his mind was not as flexible as Yang Zhaoqing's.
His words really hit the nail on the head for Xu Tangran. To Xu Tangran, some of the worries in his heart were instantly resolved. It was sweeter than honey. Thinking about it, since Miao Yi had opened his mouth, he must be confident. This Vice Domain Chief position was probably in the bag.
Yang Zhaoqing introduced Xu Tangran to the checkpoint guards along the way. The two of them chatted and laughed as they arrived outside Xu Tangran's house.
Xue Linglong was waiting anxiously outside. She roughly knew what her husband wanted to fight for when he met Miao Yi. She also didn't know if she would be able to fulfill her husband's wishes. When she saw the unconcealable smile on Xu Tangran's face when he came back, she knew that it was a success. She was relieved.
"Lord Yang." Xue Linglong greeted.
Yang Zhaoqing nodded and gestured, "Brother Xu, I won't disturb your reunion."
Xu Tangran hurriedly pulled his arm and pretended to be angry, "You and I haven't seen each other for many years. We should have a few drinks. How can we not enter? Linglong, quickly go and prepare the dishes. "
"Yes!" Xue Linglong replied with a smile. She was happy to see Xu Tangran so happy.
Yang Zhaoqing hurriedly waved his hand to stop him, "Lord has given orders. It's not convenient to delay. Next time." How could he be so tactless? The two of them hadn't seen each other for many years. It wasn't the time for him to join in the fun. He naturally had to find an excuse.
Seeing that Miao Yi was mentioned, Xu Tangran had no choice but to give up. "Since Lord has given the order, it's not convenient to delay. Another day … another day. I'll entertain Brother Yang again."
Yang Zhaoqing said, "Brother Xu must be tired. Rest for a few days. I'll follow Lord's orders and bring Brother Xu to familiarize with the new brothers."
"Tomorrow is fine. Are you free tomorrow?" Xu Tangran rushed to make an appointment. At this time, he was especially attentive to anything Miao Yi asked him to do.
"Alright. Tomorrow it is." Yang Zhaoqing nodded.
After the two of them made an appointment, Yang Zhaoqing took his leave. Xu Tangran also let out a sigh of relief and returned to the house with Xue Linglong.
After closing the door and entering the house, Xu Tangran immediately became excited. He suddenly carried Xue Linglong horizontally and went into the bedroom.
"Ah …" Xue Linglong, who was caught off guard, cried out in surprise. She was both annoyed and amused at the same time. She said, "What's the rush? Don't tell me you haven't been with any women all these years. I won't believe you even if you beat me to death. Put me down. Go wash up first. "
"Wash what? I'm in high spirits right now. How can I spoil it …" Xu Tangran could be said to have indulged himself to his heart's content for once.
Seeing that he was in such high spirits, Xue Linglong also did her best to serve him.
