Chapter 184: The Emperor’s Secret Order, What’s the intention?

From going to Beijing to take the exam to returning home in glory, it took half a year to realize it. Looking back on the various experiences, it can definitely be called ups and downs, especially the battle with Taoist Master Zhengyang, life and death are even more dangerous.

Times have changed, and his identity has changed completely. He has become a compilation of the Hanlin Academy - this is the standard official position for the top scholar of each imperial examination. Yeo Outong, as a Tanhua, was edited by the Hanlin Academy.

Both are Qingliu Jing officials and idle positions. Although they don’t have much power, they have a great prospect. Simply put, they are qualified.

Being an official is a career in academic work, backing the background, personal qualifications, and luck, so that you can be successful. Most of the qualifications have to be sustained. Starting from the Hanlin Academy in the capital, the starting point is much higher than being a seventh-rank county magistrate.

The honor of a county is very great in the local area, but it is not enough to take it out. The so-called "seventh-rank sesame official" refers to this. Moreover, as a county official, various assessment systems and promotion procedures are very complicated. If one fails, you have to continue to squat and even have the risk of being taken off your black hat.

In contrast, sitting in the Hanlin Academy to compile history books is much more idle. You can read books, write, and when the opportunity comes, you can take up the position and start the sixth rank.

This is the thinking of habit.

Unfortunately, the current situation is no longer a prosperous era, but a critical moment when the building is about to collapse. The dream of the career of the official career is already a big whirlpool, and there are countless troubles. If you are not careful, you will be crushed into pieces by the forces of all parties.

Chen Sanlang really doesn't like such intrigue fights. He ignores the Seventh Prince's recruitment.

It seems strange. When we entered Beijing, all parties were constantly attracting each other, but after becoming the top scorer in high school, they disappeared and no one came to the door.

There are rumors that since the emperor was in the hall, he had a nameless fire and almost named Chen Sanlang as the top scholar. All parties immediately restrained their hands and feet, just like a cat put away his minions while walking, tiptoing, and did not dare to make a sound. As for the inside story, only the person involved knew.

Anyway, Chen Sanlang didn't want to know, so after the Qionglin banquet, he immediately met with Xu Jun, packed his luggage, and wanted to leave Beijing and return to Jingxian.

This time, Ye Outong returned to Yangzhou, so she chose to walk with Chen Sanlang.

Ye Outong took the exam for Tanhua and was very proud. He took the Shutong entourage and ordered the servants to buy two luxurious and comfortable carriages, one for Chen Sanlang to sit on his own and the other for Chen Sanlang.

In the early morning, two carriages drove out of Chang'an City. Even though they were sitting on the top scholar Tanhua, they would not cause any trouble. For the capital, this was nothing. They were passing through many high-ranking officials of the fifth rank or above. There were also many princes and nobles.

When he left the city, Chen Sanlang lifted the curtains of the carriage and looked back at the steep head of Chang'an City. He saw the display of soldiers and armor on it, and the flags were flying. On the tip of a gun, a cold light burst out under the storm of the rising sun.

This is the cold light of a huge empire, but I don’t know how long it can shine.

Suddenly, Chen Sanlang felt something, and the golden dragon energy that bound the "Haoran Silk Book" was buzzing, curling up, becoming more solid, but it clearly lost the lively spiritual majesty.

He was delighted: As expected, when he left the capital, the dragon energy would lose its roots and its power would be greatly weakened.

It can also be seen that the world is so big that the division between the various places has corroded the foundation of the dynasty in its roots. The dragon energy that originally belonged to Xia Yu was transformed and absorbed one after another, and was about to form other hidden dragons.

Chen Sanlang inexplicably remembered the "willful" emperor. He had no intersection with each other, but he looked at his words and expressions and was clearly different from the legendary image. He could not overlap and suddenly became strange.

"Forget it, what do you want him to do? You'd better think about how to settle down when you return to Jingxian..."

The breath is not chaotic and undestructive, so it is known that Jingxian County is nothing, but it is always under the rule of Yuan Wenchang. This time, it is unusual to have a good thing about Yuan Geshu.

I have doubts in my heart and it is hard to figure it out.

Get it!

Suddenly, the fast horse galloped, and a team of soldiers galloped out of Chang'an. The horses were furious in their clothes and yellow strips were embedded in them. They turned out to be a team of big guards.

The great inner guards are mainly responsible for the security of the Forbidden City and protect the royal family. Once they are dispatched, they will inevitably have the imperial destiny.

The horse team rushed to the front of the carriage and stopped it.

The horse in the first carriage walking in front was frightened and neighed, and the coachman quickly comforted him.

Ye Outong in the carriage was reading a book when she bumped into her forehead: "Lao Zhang, how did you drive the car?"

When he got off the car and saw the soldiers, he felt a trembling heart. He didn't know what had happened. He was about to salute him when a strong man in the team leader shouted: "Where is Chen Zhuangyuan? Listen to the order!"

He actually came to pass the order.

When Chen Sanlang heard this, he frowned and got out of the car to pick him up.

The heroic leader also dismounted, strode over, held him up, and grinned: "The top scholar does not need to be a tribute, this is a secret order."

Chen Sanlang sneered in his heart: Secret order? He shouted so loudly just now...

The majestic leader took it into his sleeve, took out a scroll of Huang Juan and handed it over: "Brother of the Principal, I'm sure you're ready." After that, he took out another sword.

The sword is three feet and five inches long, and the scabbard is cast in brass. It has exquisite patterns and is extremely heavy.

He handed over the secret order and sword, and the majestic leader bowed his hand, turned his horse keenly, waved his whip, and led the guards back to the city.

Ye Outong looked strange. She looked at Yangchen's horse team and looked at the secret order and sword in Chen Sanlang's hand. She touched her chin, but did not ask.

Such affairs are of great importance and cannot be asked by others at will.

Since it was a secret order, Chen Sanlang could not open it now, but returned to the car and unwrapped it and showed it to see.

Huang Juan has few words on it, only a few dozen, but the content is rich, and it is actually an appointment - a new appointment for Chen Sanlang's official position.

After watching, Chen Sanlang's face gradually calmed down.

Xu Jun leaned over and saw the contents of the secret decree clearly, and raised his eyebrows: "What are the activities of the emperor? How could he let you go back to Yangzhou to work? Where is your intention?"

Chen Sanlang's eyes flashed and hesitated.

Xu Jun said caringly: "Sanlang, isn't the emperor's move equivalent to pushing you into the fire pit? You must never agree... You are a monk, and at most you can resign and leave with your seal. We are so happy to go around the world?"

Chen Sanlang shook his head and smiled bitterly: "I am no longer a monk now."

"What? What happened?"

Chen Sanlang told the story of the suppression of the "Haoran Silk Book" by the dragon qi.

Xu Jun heard this and said anxiously: "If this is the case, you will not be able to take office without the ability to protect yourself."

"Aren't you there?"

Chen Sanlang looked at her and smiled softly.
