I Really Am Not The Lord of Demon Chapter 332

Chapter 332 - The New World

When he woke up, it was already eight o’clock…

Ling Ping’an looked at his phone and yawned.

Then, he put on his slippers and washed up in the bathroom.

Then, he looked at himself in the mirror.

It seemed like he was going to cut his hair again…

“I’ll go to the barber in two days and get a haircut…” he said.

This haircut was something that only became popular after the establishment of the Great Xia Empire.

In the past, it was considered hurting the parents if one hurt oneself.

Whoever cut their hair would thus be unfilial.

However, at the end of the previous dynasty, the world was in chaos.

There were also northern minorities that entered the central plains and issued a notice saying, ‘one will lose one’s head if one keep one’s hair’.

In front of the saber and soldiers, the great scholars of Jiangnan no longer talked about the body, hair, and skin. They all shaved their hair and changed clothes, pledging their loyalty to the new dynasty. From this, the phrase ‘elegant politics in the new dynasty’ was born.

When the great ancestor decided to uphold justice, this hair became a big problem.

In order to show that they were enemies with the outside world.

The great ancestor took the lead to shave his hair and cut his first buzz cut.

Hence, the entire army followed suit and cut their buzz cuts.

Hence, the Xia Army had a bandit title, ‘thief’.

When the great ancestor’s army swept through the nine prefectures, conquering the old capital and returning it to the imperial capital.

The Jiangnan scholars naturally did not dare to go against the great ancestor’s sabers and Sabers.

Hence, the empire’s hairdressing industry flourished.

Up until now, all the barbershops still had the portrait of the great ancestor, whom they would worship from time to time.

And this buzz cut had become another tradition.

80% of the federation’s people would choose to have their hair cut.

It was simple, clean, and refreshing.

There was no need to take extra care of it, and it was especially suitable for people like Ling Ping’an.

After combing his hair, Ling Ping’an took his phone and hummed a tune as he walked down the stairs.

His pet cat was already waiting for him at the bottom of the stairs.

“Little darling!” Ling Ping’an picked it up and kissed it. “You’re really my little cotton-padded jacket!”

He carried it and walked to the door. He pulled up the shutter and pushed open the glass door.

The street outside the door was already bustling with traffic and people.

It was another sunny day!

Qin Keqing carried her briefcase and walked into the Jiangcheng City’s municipal comprehensive service building located in the center of the city.

Along the way, countless people glanced at her.

It wasn’t just because of her tall and exquisite figure and her appearance that was like a queen in a cartoon.

It was even because of the uniform on her body.

A bright yellow coat and bright red boots.

There was a jade badge on her chest.

A standard Imperial Commissioner!

And a high commissioner!

More than two hundred years ago, during the Gaozong era, this kind of person was an imperial envoy, a patrol envoy.

Therefore, people cupped their hands to show their respect.

Qin Keqing nodded slightly to them in return, and then she took the elevator to the sixth floor.

When she walked out of the elevator, the first thing she saw was the nameplate of the Jiangcheng City office of the Federal Empire’s Meritorious Children’s committee.

When Qin Keqing pushed open the door, she saw the staff members of the office who were waiting for her stood up one after another.

“Good Day, Secretary Qin!” The people bowed in unison, welcoming the arrival of their superior.

Qin Keqing nodded and walked to the meeting table. She sat down and opened the briefcase in her hand. She took out documents one by one. Qin Keqing took out a document from her bag and handed it to Qin Keqing. Qin Keqing took out a document from her bag and handed it to Qin Keqing.

Then, she looked at the people who were still standing and said, “Everyone, please take a seat…”

Only then did everyone dare to take a seat.

There was nothing they could do!

The Committee for the Meritorious Children of the Federal Empire, although it was officially an official organization under the central federal government and Doctor Qing’s Parliament.

In reality, this organization and the central federal government had nothing to do with the Council of Ministers and physicians!

The funds of the Committee for the children of the meritorious service had been the responsibility of the imperial family for two hundred years.

Furthermore, it did not accept donations or grants.

This was the last order of Emperor Gaozong!

Therefore, the committee for the children of the meritorious service was the same as other organizations directly led by the imperial family. On the surface, it was the central federal government, but in reality, it was the imperial family’s department.

It was just a layer of the cabinet and the Council of Ministers.

Therefore, the imperial family’s commissioner from the imperial capital had absolute power over all the local organizations!

While looking at these people’s respectful expressions, she shook her head slightly in her heart. The drawback of the Imperial Family’s organization was that it lacked vitality.

Although she had undergone reform, it was still a little difficult to reverse the decades of ills.

Thinking of this, she puffed out her chest and looked at these people. “Everyone, please report to me the situation of the meritorious children in Jiangcheng City in the past three years…”

Raising her head, she looked at the well-dressed man and said, “Commissioner Wang, let’s start with you!”

The man immediately smiled. He took out the notes that he had prepared beforehand and began to explain.

Qin Keqing listened for a while and was getting impatient.

It was because he was talking about official articles.

It was nothing more than praising the royal family and praising the emperor.

But the actual work was done without a word.

Qin Keqing listened for two minutes and could not help but interrupt him. “Commissioner Wang, I am here on orders not to listen to your praises

“I want to listen to reality!”

“If the Commissioner doesn’t want to talk, I believe that there will be someone in the office who will!”

“Loyal and virtuous officials, I believe that there will definitely be someone in the Jiangcheng City office!”

Hearing her words, that person smiled embarrassedly. His face was extremely embarrassed. He didn’t say anything else and became silent.

It seemed that he had been reprimanded.

In fact, the sneer on his face and the contempt in his eyes were clear!

Qin Keqing knew he looked down on her.

It was not only because she was young, and therefore inevitably despised, but also because she was a woman.

Qin Keqing sneered.

She is the person of Crown Princess Rou’an, and Crown Princess Rou’an, in addition to being the person in charge of the various committees directly under the current royal family.

At the same time, she was also an honorary member of the Federation of Women of the Federal Empire.

A woman’s right!

Feminism in the Federal Empire rose up during the Gaozong era.

It was a dreamy era.

Women who had awakened loudly said no to feudal customs.

At first, people only wanted freedom of marriage and love.

But later, after the imperial princesses joined one after another, feminism began to pursue equality in all aspects.

The princesses believed that if men could do it, women could do it too.

For example, Princess Xin’an, the eldest daughter of the high sect, was a typical example.

At that time, some old-fashioned scholars wrote in the newspapers that ‘there are still differences between men and women. For example, men can go to the battlefield and kill the enemy, but women can’t!’

Princess Xin’an therefore signed up for the army. After three years of service, when she retired from the army, she was ranked in the top three of her company in every military training.

She even obtained the title of ‘Special Shooter’.

Princess Xin’an made a table of her results and published it in the ‘Empire Central Daily’.

The faces of all the scholars were swollen like buns.

Inspired by the princess, the number of women who signed up for the army soared. From then on, women appeared in the Army, Navy, and Air Force of the empire, and there were even female generals.

Later on, some people said that there was a difference in IQ between men and women. The reason was that all grand scholars were men.

Therefore, Princess Ya’an, Gao Zong’s other daughter, had devoted herself to scientific research since the age of 16. At the age of 25, she discovered that the particles in the air and water were always moving irregularly, thus obtaining the honor of Grand Scholar.

Moreover, the movement she discovered was named the ‘Ya’an movement’.

Since then, the number of female grand scholars in the Federal Empire had soared. To this day, 40% of the grand scholars were women.

In short, feminism was a movement that the royal princesses participated in and called for.

And it was still the same to this day.

Under the influence of the princesses, the women’s rights in the Federal Empire had always been in pursuit of equality.

If men could do it, so could I.

Therefore, through the women’s rights movement, the empire not only eliminated many of the old feudal customs, but also eliminated the dowry.

The reason was that women’s rights believed that if they accepted the dowry, it would be an attack on themselves!

How could this be?

Women’s rights were in pursuit of equality, not subversion.

Subversion was not the women’s goal, it was a matrilineal society, reversing history!

Naturally, if one stayed by the side of the princesses for too long, most people would be influenced and become feminists.

Qin Keqing was no exception.

She had a strong sense of equality.

At this moment, she looked at the self-righteous commissioner in front of her.

“Commissioner Wang!” Qin Keqing said without batting an eyelid, “Why aren’t you saying anything?”

“Aren’t you a little tired?”

“If you’re tired, then go back and rest!”

At this point, she stood up and looked at the other party. “As the Commissioner of the Imperial Family, I, on behalf of Princess Rou an, announce the dismissal of your excellency from the position of Commissioner of the Jiangcheng City Office of the Federal Empire’s Meritorious Children’s Committee!”

“From now on, your excellency is no longer a member of the imperial family…”

“I will soon issue the relevant documents to the Jiangcheng City Municipal Authority!”

After saying that, Qin Keqing slammed the table. “Mr. Wang, you can leave now!”

“You are no longer welcome here!”

The other party was stunned and immediately became furious.

“Little girl!”

“How dare you do this?”

Qin Keqing sneered and waved her hand. “Send Mr. Wang Out!”

Immediately, a guard came in, grabbed the other party and walked out of the door.

However, the other party broke free from the guard, tidied up his clothes and said, “I can leave on my own!”

“But Secretary Qin… If you mess up the matter in Jiangcheng City…”

“I’m afraid it’s hard to explain!”

“You don’t have to worry about it!” Qin Keqing laughed.

She wouldn’t do things that she wasn’t sure of!

She wasn’t afraid of anything when it came to work!

“Hmph!” Commissioner Wang slammed the door angrily and left.

Qin Keqing looked at the others. “Let’s continue…”

With one commissioner killing the chicken to scare the monkey, the rest of the people immediately put away all their contempt and finally began to seriously talk to Qin Keqing about practical matters.

Qin Keqing sat up straight and listened very carefully.

From time to time, she would interject and ask some questions, and these questions often pointed to the key points.

This made the others even more afraid to neglect.

Unknowingly, the rhythm of the entire meeting room was controlled by Qin Keqing, and the Jiangcheng City office was also controlled by her.

This was one of the purposes of her coming to Jiangcheng City: To rectify and tighten the discipline of the Jiangcheng City office.

This was the task assigned by Crown Princess Rou’an!

Situ He took his luggage and stood at the entrance of Jiangcheng City’s airport.

He turned around, and the people who came to see him off waved at him.

Situ He looked at this city that had made him sleepless for more than a month, excited and scared, and then walked into the airport’s departure hall without hesitation.

The staff who had already received the notice immediately came forward.

“Sir General… Your private plane is ready to take off at any time…”

“Yes…” Situ He nodded. “Thank you for your hard work!”

“No hard work!” The staff smiled and led him to the specially opened channel. Then, they entered the terminal from the airport’s VIP channel.

A wide-body passenger plane was already on standby.

This was the Blackguard’s official plane, specially designed to travel between the two shores of the ocean.

It used many advanced passenger planes and various special tools developed by the psionic power experts of the empire.

It could travel at supersonic speeds. More importantly, it had a certain anti-psionic power capability. It could effectively prevent and guard against all possible transcendent being attacks.

Situ He carried his luggage and walked directly from the terminal to the passenger plane. The cabin door had already opened, and the representatives of the Blackguard officials from the Nanzhou Kingdom raised the welcome flag at the cabin door.

Situ He looked at it and could not help but touch the appointment letter on his body.

This morning, he had been approved to be the commander of the Blackguard of the Nanzhou Kingdom and also the representative of the royal family of the Nanzhou Kingdom, the Minister of the Privy Council, the deputy commander of the Land Defense Command, the representative of the Empire, and the commander of the palace guards.

He was fully responsible for the management of the special affairs as well as the royal security of the Nanzhou Kingdom.

….

Almost at the same time that situ he stepped onto the private plane…

Song Shihui pushed open the door of the surveillance center of the Blackguard of Jiangcheng City.

Many surveillance screens appeared in front of his eyes.

He walked in, and all the staff members turned around and saluted, “General!”

Song Shihui smiled and raised his hand, “There’s no need to be formal…”

“I came to Jiangcheng City to learn…”

“In the past, when General Situ was here, everyone should be the same…”

He walked to the center of the control room and looked at the screens. Then, he asked Xia Ping, who was already on standby, “Chief Xia, have you sorted out the relevant information and intelligence?”

Xia ping saluted, “General, everything has been sorted out!”

“That’s Good!” Song Shihui nodded. “Please send them to my office…”

He looked at the screens and asked, “Are those the target’s?”

Xia Ping pointed at all the screens. “All of them!”

“We have installed 124 high-definition surveillance cameras on the street where the target is and within 1,000 meters of it…”

“In addition, there are 38 high-performance long-range drones on standby 24 hours a day…”

“In addition, according to the target’s personality and the think tank’s deduction, all possible areas within 20 kilometers of the target have been recorded with real-time cameras!”

“Make sure that when the target wants us to know… We need to know it immediately!”

“What did you just say? “Song Shihui immediately grasped the key!

“I need it now!” Xia Ping said, “If the target doesn’t want, no matter how hard we try, we won’t be able to find him or see his shadow…”

“Just like now…”Xia Ping pointed at the screens.

On the screens, the streets were crowded with people.

Multiple cameras were pointed at a bookstore.

Nevertheless, no matter how they adjusted their positions, they could only see the entrance of the bookstore and the scene outside.

Other than that, nothing about the bookstore was shown on the camera!

As the owner of an ordinary bookstore, Ling PingAn’s biggest wish was to muddle through life and do absolutely nothing.

However, customers that were right in the middle of their pubescent crisis kept visiting his store in the dead of night.

For the sake of his business, Ling PingAn had to mimic their childish tones, sparing no effort to promote the books in his store.

When he finally managed to sell his books after going through a great verbal tug-o-war, each and every one of them said that they don’t have money, and that they wish to use various tools that were seemingly divine artifacts as pledge.

Looking at these customers, Ling PingAn could only agree to them resignedly.

But little did he know that every single book that these customers purchased from him had altered in appearance.

“Secrets of Cosplay” became “Lower Abyss Research Report”

“Stellaris: Settings for Synth Ascension” was in fact “Gospel for Synthetic Beings”

What’s more, in the eyes of these customers, he was actually a horrifying ruler of Diablos, an indefinable entity that held the reins of all realms.

In this regard, Ling PingAn said, “I’m not, I didn’t, don’t talk nonsense.
