Chapter 809 General Rong Tao's Unexpected Death
Chapter 809 General Rong Tao's Unexpected Death
Because of a picture, not only did Qi Fu start making fun of Qing Que, but Wendy also joined in.
They said that after Qingque became a general, she might ask Fu Xuan to wash her feet or give Fu Xuan endless work.
These words terrified Qingque. She didn't know if she would do the same after becoming a general, but she knew that she was just a lowly diviner in the Imperial Divination Bureau. When she saw Fu Xuan, she trembled like a mouse before a cat.
If she really dares to say in the group that she would do that, then she won't have an easy time today. Don't be fooled by Fu Xuan's pink and tender appearance; her heart is made of black iron!
And so, Qingque lived in fear and trepidation in the group for a while, until the system notification sounded again and the fan-made video finally began.
"Ding! The fan-made video 'The New Jade Palace General - Azure Sparrow - Sparrow General' has finished loading and is playing."
As the video unfolds
First to appear is our Grand Diviner, Fu Xuan. She sits casually on a grand chair, her beautiful legs in white silk stockings propped up on the table, highlighting the roundness of her jade feet beneath the stockings, which is extremely alluring.
Although Fu Xuan was sitting so leisurely in the armchair, her petite figure left a lot of empty space in the armchair. But this space was not wasted. On the empty space were sweet milk tea, crystal clear and round purple grapes, bright red and juicy watermelon, and finally a big bag of sunflower seeds with a milky aroma.
At this moment, Fu Xuan was drinking milk tea, eating sweet fruit, and frantically cracking sunflower seeds, while casually spitting the shells and shells on the ground.
At this point, the video zoomed in, and another figure appeared on the side.
She was Qingque.
Qingque, dressed in an apron like a servant, would immediately sweep the trash into the bin whenever Fu Xuan spat out melon seeds or fruit shells, not daring to be negligent in the slightest.
"Little Sparrow, the Taibu Si stipulates that the ground must be kept clean at all times, or your salary will be deducted." After Fu Xuan finished speaking, she put a melon seed in her mouth, cracked it open, and then spat the shell on the ground.
As for Qingque, she watched this scene without saying anything, but simply took a broom and a dustpan and swept the sunflower seed shells into the dustpan.
In the group:
March 7th: What an oppressor! I think I understand why Qingque looked at the Grand Diviner with such a smug smile later on.
Sand Gold: I get it now, that's just the cycle of fate in the workplace.
Yae no Miko: A vicious boss, a pitiful heroine, and the heroine rises to power to take revenge on her boss—a classic tale of karma.
Fu Xuan: I'm not that vicious.
Jingyuan: So, how did Qingque become a general?
Paimon: You'll find out soon enough.
Feixiao: I still want to know if the child in Fu Xuan's arms is hers.
Fu Xuan: …………
At this moment, Qingque wanted to laugh. So this was the inevitable cycle of karma. Now she wasn't afraid anymore. Although she felt quite pleased, she could only enjoy it internally and couldn't let Fu Xuan see it.
Although Fu Xuan wouldn't go so far as to trip her up because of this, uh, no...
Considering Fu Xuan's changes over this period, it's possible that he might actually try to trip her up because of it.
Thinking of this, Qingque had no choice but to look around and hide first. She couldn't let anyone see her, and she certainly couldn't speak in the group chat, lest her beautiful diviner find an excuse.
The video continues, and things are changing rapidly.
Just then, footsteps sounded outside, and Fu Xuan, who had been so carefree and relaxed, immediately withdrew her white silk-clad feet from the table.
Then she gave Qingque a look, and Qingque, receiving the instruction, immediately and hurriedly gathered up the snacks on the armchair. When Qingque returned after finishing, she found a few more sunflower seed shells on the ground.
Left with no other choice, she had to pick up the broom and start sweeping again.
Before long, the footsteps outside were getting closer, and as a figure appeared, everyone could see who it was.
It was Jing Yuan.
"General, what brings you to the Imperial Apothecary?" Fu Xuan asked, putting on airs.
"Of course it's something important, Fu Qing," Jing Yuan said, taking out a golden scroll.
Fu Xuan naturally saw the golden scroll, and her expression froze the moment she saw it.
"Immortal Ship Decree? And it's the highest grade gold one. This is something that can only be issued to announce someone's succession to the position of general. General, you have this? Could it be that you're going to pass the position of general to me?" Fu Xuan's eyes lit up.
“That’s right, it is indeed the Imperial Decree of the Immortal Ship, and it is the very decree of the Immortal Ship that confers the title of General upon someone,” Jing Yuan admitted with a smile.
Upon hearing this, Fu Xuan was even happier and immediately walked over, then stretched out her little hand to Jing Yuan.
“I know there are some ceremonies involved in appointing the Immortal Boat General, but I’ve always been unconventional, and you’ve taken good care of me in the past, so these can be waived. You don’t need to go through all that trouble; just give me the imperial edict.” Fu Xuan couldn’t wait to become a general.
“Hehe, Fu Qing, this is indeed the general’s imperial edict, but did I say it was for you?” Jing Yuan laughed.
"What? If not me, who else could it be? In the entire Luofu, who is more suitable to be a general than me?" Fu Xuan's eyes widened.
"Of course there is," Jing Yuan said, looking up at the other person inside the room.
"Qingque, why haven't you come to receive the imperial decree?"
"Huh?" Qingque, who had been obediently staying to the side hoping that she wouldn't have to serve Fu Xuan once he became a general, was stunned when she suddenly heard Jing Yuan call her name.
"What 'ah'?! Quickly come and receive the Marshal's decree!"
Urged on by Jing Yuan, Qing Que immediately went over and bowed to Jing Yuan.
"The Azure Sparrow of the Luofu Immortal Ship receives the imperial decree: due to the sudden passing of General Rong Tao of the Jade Palace Immortal Ship, this commander has obtained General Rong Tao's divination and, in accordance with his last words, hereby appoints Azure Sparrow, a lowly diviner of the Luofu Immortal Ship's Grand Divination Office, as the new General of the Jade Palace."
"May the light of the Azure Sparrow bring a new destiny to the Jade Palace Immortal Ship..."
Although it was only two short sentences, Fu Xuan and Qing Que were both dumbfounded.
First is Fu Xuan
General Rong Tao of the Jade Palace Immortal Ship is Senior Sister Fu Xuan. Although we don't know how Yao Guang died.
But her senior sister didn't think of her at all, and instead gave the position of the new general of the Jade Palace to a little Qingque.
Is her senior sister out of her mind?
As for Qingque, she remained completely bewildered.
At that moment, only a few words were on her mind.
That is:
Is Qingque really going to become a general?
It took them quite a while to realize what was happening.
"Wait a minute, let's not talk about how my senior sister died, but as her junior sister, shouldn't I be her first consideration in this matter? Why is it this guy Qingque? And how did my senior sister die?"
Fu Xuan pointed at Qing Que and loudly asked Jing Yuan.
"This was a divination performed by General Rong Tao before his death. How would I know? However, I do know a little bit of the reason!" Jing Yuan indicated that it wasn't his problem.
"So, why?" Fu Xuan asked again.
"Fu Qing, why don't you watch the video of how General Rong Tao died?" Jing Yuan didn't explain immediately, but instead talked about how Yao Guang died.
"There was a video recording of my senior sister's death? What exactly happened?" Fu Xuan was stunned again upon hearing this.
There's video footage of her death, which means she didn't die a natural death! Did someone kidnap her and then kill her?
Fu Xuan had wicked thoughts running through his mind.
