Embroidered Uniform Guard: I Can Plunder Talents-Chapter 318 - 81: The Case Files from Years Ago! I Don’t Want a Great Sage as My Subordinate
Maybe that’s what they’re thinking.
Even if Feng Feiyi’s whole family makes a scene, so what?
It wouldn’t stir up any waves at all.
At first, of course Feng Feiyi’s parents didn’t want to comply, so Marquis Rong’gong sent people to ruin their business, even had a group of thugs move right into their house.
Report it to the authorities?
With Marquis Rong’gong’s connections, that’s the last thing he ever needs to worry about.
Feng Feiyi’s parents, unable to bear the humiliation and harassment from those thugs, tried to fight back once. Even though they were the ones beaten, in the end, it was them who got arrested.
No one knows what Feng Feiyi’s parents went through in the cell.
It was only when Feng Feiyi saw them again—they’d already become corpses, with all sorts of marks left by the punishment.
From that moment on.
Feng Feiyi left for the Imperial City to train in martial arts.
This time coming back, it’s all for revenge for those years!
",,,"
So your way of revenge is just burning down these businesses under Marquis Rong’gong’s control?
It’s only because Marquis Rong’gong loves money so much that he acts so furious when a couple gambling dens get torched; in reality, this kind of petty sabotage can’t hurt him one bit.
Ye Liuyun didn’t say anything.
Just the look he gave Feng Feiyi—hard to put into words.
No wonder you ended up with that Hidden Endurance, the ultimate doormat’s exclusive Talent Entry, when all you can think of is such harmless revenge.
"Please teach me, Master!"
At this moment, Feng Feiyi finally realized.
If he really wants revenge for his parents, doing it alone is impossible.
But if he could get Ye Liuyun’s help, everything would be different—especially considering how, during the day, Ye Liuyun schooled Marquis Rong’gong like he was scolding his own grandson.
It made Feng Feiyi look at Ye Liuyun with burning eyes.
"As long as you can help me take revenge, whether it’s braving blades or walking through fire, wherever you need me, I, Feng Feiyi, swear I’ll die before I refuse!"
As long as he gets his revenge.
Feng Feiyi doesn’t care whose underling he becomes.
When he came back to the Great Qian Dynasty and immediately joined the Embroidered Uniform Guard, it was also with the intention to use their power for vengeance against Marquis Rong’gong.
Unfortunately, Feng Feiyi didn’t understand much about officialdom.
If he didn’t have real skill, he’d have been sidelined somewhere no one cares about ages ago.
",,,"
Ye Liuyun wasn’t in a rush to say anything.
He had originally intended to recruit and subdue Feng Feiyi, but even recruitment has its own rules.
"If you want revenge, you have to do it yourself for it to really feel good."
He said it simply,
then waved his hand at Si Nan and the others.
"Take him back!"
"Yes, sir!"
Responding promptly, they moved to either side of Feng Feiyi. Knowing he wasn’t likely to run, they didn’t bother to restrain him. 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝙬𝙚𝓫𝒏𝓸𝓿𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝙤𝓶
Feng Feiyi’s expression dropped noticeably.
He thought Ye Liuyun didn’t want to help him; well, of course, the other guy’s a Grandmaster, and he’s just a Postnatal Martial Artist—being dismissed is pretty normal.
,,,
Back at the Embroidered Uniform Guard headquarters.
Feng Feiyi was escorted away. Ye Liuyun didn’t plan to tell anyone he’d caught the arsonist, but instead asked Si Nan to bring all the files about Feng Feiyi’s case from back then.
"Sir, you don’t believe what Feng Feiyi said?"
"I’m not one to take someone’s word for it. Some things I have to see for myself to believe!"
Though Feng Feiyi’s story sounds heartfelt, plus he’s got that Hidden Endurance tragedy Talent Entry, it probably isn’t fake—but it never hurts to investigate.
If something unexpected pops up,
wouldn’t we just be doing someone else’s dirty work?
"Understood!"
Hearing this, Si Nan nodded knowingly.
Those case files from years back will take a while to dig up, but Ye Liuyun didn’t mind waiting and didn’t rush him.
Before leaving,
he even made a point to visit the Imperial Prison, and sure enough, it was still empty—how could the cells be filled again so quickly?
Luckily Ye Liuyun had expected this, so he wasn’t very disappointed.
He just carried on as usual.
,,,
The next day!
Ye Liuyun had already received word: the envoys from the Liuli Dynasty, here to offer birthday greetings to the Great Qian Emperor, had arrived.
And they’d been put up at a special inn.
Apparently, they brought quite a few gifts—several carriages’ worth. Whenever the Liuli Dynasty celebrated their emperor’s birthday, the Great Qian side would send nice presents too. Reciprocity—nothing surprising.
This stretch of time,
the security in the Imperial City was getting tighter, and even the Embroidered Uniform Guard was running low on staff.
Most of them were sent out to patrol the streets.
There weren’t many left at headquarters.
At night,
when Ye Liuyun returned home after dinner, just getting ready to train in the courtyard, he suddenly sensed the presence of Shu Fan and Ye Qinzhen.
Lately,
Shu Fan and Ye Qinzhen have been coming by pretty often, but it’s almost always at night.
"It’s still more spacious here. That inn’s rooms are way too small, and during the day you can’t come out freely—it’s boring as hell!"
Once they arrived at Ye Liuyun’s place,
Shu Fan didn’t bother with any politeness—acted like it was her own home.
Brazenly sat down across from Ye Liuyun, poured herself a cup of tea, and started drinking with practiced ease.
