Outer Town Envoyship.
"Supervisor Wang."
Wang Changxu walked along the corridor inside the Zhenfu Division with a troubled expression, and Yamen Runners passing by greeted him respectfully.
"Hm."
Wang Changxu nodded.
He had already submitted the investigation report on Nancheng Prison two days ago. But for some unknown reason, the Errand Office had not yet given him a reply.
"Which part went wrong?"
Wang Changxu was a bit puzzled.
Logically speaking, it shouldn't be like this!
With the Fang Family as the driving force behind it, the matter of Nancheng Prison should have had feedback that very day, or at least a result and a handling procedure by the second day.
But right now...
There was nothing.
Wang Changxu waited for two days, couldn't wait any longer, and directly went to the Errand Office to understand the situation.
"Supervisor Wang."
As soon as he entered the Errand Office, a young man came towards him and quickly greeted Wang Changxu.
"Where is your Supervisor Lin?"
Wang Changxu stopped him and asked.
"Supervisor Lin is inside!"
The young man pointed to the inner room and said.
Wang Changxu nodded and walked directly towards the inner room.
"Old Lin!"
A middle-aged man with a goatee sat in the room, looking up to see Wang Changxu.
"Old Wang, why are you here? Come, sit, sit, sit."
"Old Lin, regarding the investigation report on Nancheng Prison, I submitted it two days ago. How is it now? Where has it circulated to? According to the report, the situation is so serious, the warden of Nancheng Prison, Lord Chen Ping'an, should be severely punished!"
Wang Changxu sat down in the chair in front of the table and spoke directly.
"You're talking about this matter!"
Supervisor Lin stroked his goatee, a hint of difficulty on his face.
Wang Changxu's heart sank.
"What's wrong, Old Lin? Is there a problem with the report?"
"There's no problem with the report, it's just..."
"Just what?" Wang Changxu pressed.
"The personnel relationship of Chen Ping'an, the warden of Nancheng Prison, has changed. His matter is no longer under the jurisdiction of my Outer Town Envoyship."
"What!"
Wang Changxu couldn't help but stand up.
"Warden Chen Ping'an has been transferred to Deputy Commander of Baishi City, and his archived records have been transferred from the Outer Town Envoyship to the Weishui Town Pacification Bureau for management!"
Transferred to Weishui Town Pacification Bureau!
When did this happen!
How could this be...
Wang Changxu only felt his head spinning, his face filled with shock.
......
By the time Chen Ping'an received the transfer document, news of his breakthrough to the Inner Qi Realm was circulating throughout the Nancheng Suppression Office.
"Have you heard!"
"What?"
"Warden Chen Ping'an, Lord Chen, has broken through to the Inner Qi Realm!"
"You're talking about that, I heard it a long time ago! Let me tell you, Lord Chen had someone push a corpse over that day, do you know who the corpse was?"
"Who?"
"It was an Inner Qi Realm master, Shadowless Kick!"
"Shadowless Kick?"
"Yes, that's right. I heard he died at the hands of Lord Chen!"
"Lord Chen just broke through to the Inner Qi Realm and can kill a martial arts master who is also in the Inner Qi Realm!? That's impossible..."
"You don't know, Lord Chen is exceptionally talented, and his combat prowess is even more astonishing. Otherwise, do you think Lord Chen, being so young, could have broken through to the Inner Qi Realm!"
"That sounds about right! If I remember correctly, Lord Chen just turned twenty not long ago, right!"
"Yes..."
......
Amidst the discussions, Chen Ping'an walked out of the main gate of the Nancheng Suppression Office.
Not long ago, he received the appointment document from Mu Wanjun for his transfer to Baishi City as Deputy Commander.
Hereby, Chen Ping'an, warden of Nancheng Prison, is diligent and conscientious, loyal to his duties... He is hereby transferred to Baishi City as Deputy Commander, enjoying the treatment of a Deputy Total Affairs Office level... Upon seeing this document, he may take office!
At the bottom of the appointment document, a large seal was stamped.
Signed, Weishui Town Pacification Bureau!
The Weishui Town Pacification Bureau is a county-level Zhenfu Division system, the highest-level command agency, responsible for administering Weishui County City and its dozens of large and small cities, and dispatching Commanders from various places!
For example, the Outer Town Envoyship and Inner City Zhenfu Division within Weishui County City, when combined, are only responsible for the management of Weishui County City and are not responsible for the other cities under its jurisdiction. The Zhenfu Divisions in various places also have no reporting relationship with the Outer Town Envoyship or Inner City Zhenfu Division.
Chen Ping'an's transfer to Baishi City as Deputy Commander meant that his archived information was completely separated from the Outer Town Envoyship, no longer subject to any dispatch or jurisdiction.
The so-called predicament before was self-defeating!
Of course, predicament or not, Chen Ping'an actually didn't pay too much attention to it.
For him, as long as his cultivation could continue to advance, that was the most important thing!
Chen Ping'an was very satisfied with the transfer to Baishi City.
Rather than being restricted within Weishui County City, it was better to go to Baishi City and serve as a deputy officer of a Zhenfu Division.
Deputy Commander, this was a true second-in-command!
Aside from having to bear immense risks, it was a position of high authority and prestige.
As for the risks involved...
Chen Ping'an didn't care too much.
With his current true strength, he was enough to eliminate most risks! Most importantly, in about ten days, his martial arts Realm might advance further!
By then, he would suppress the evil spirits in Baishi City with a single hand!
......
The appointment document required Chen Ping'an to take office immediately!
In the next few days, Chen Ping'an was not idle, and began to prepare for the relocation at an extremely fast pace.
Speaking of relocation, in reality, Chen Ping'an had almost nothing he truly needed to carry.
The house was rented, he hadn't lived there long, and there were no valuable items inside. Ordinary items and belongings could be repurchased entirely once they arrived in Baishi City.
Relatively speaking, the most troublesome issue was Chen Er'ya's schooling.
Xiao Yatou had been studying at Cangsong Academy for some time now. She had also gotten used to such a life.
Chen Ping'an was originally a little worried that when he told Xiao Yatou he was about to be transferred to Baishi City, she would be a little reluctant. But unexpectedly, Xiao Yatou acted even more at ease than he had imagined.
"Wherever big brother goes, I'll go!"
"Moving from here to live in Baishi City, can you get used to it?"
Chen Er'ya looked at Chen Ping'an with a speechless expression: "Big brother, what are you saying? What's there not to get used to. Big brother is going to be Deputy Commander, not to suffer. Following big brother will be incredibly impressive!"
Alright!
Xiao Yatou had a point.
Chen Ping'an also felt a weight lifted off his mind.
As for Chen Er'ya's schooling later, they would discuss it once they arrived in Baishi City! He didn't believe that with his prestige as Deputy Commander, he wouldn't be able to hire a suitable teacher to teach Xiao Yatou.
"The time for this appointment is quite rushed, we have to leave in just a few days. Take some time to pack up everything you want to take."
"Got it!"
The communication between the siblings was as casual as ever, yet it exuded a sense of warmth everywhere.
Shaoyao stood by, listening to the siblings' conversation, her face soft.
A feeling like home!
Although she was a maid, having such a Young Master and Young Miss, she was fortunate and honored.
