Qiu Wuhen stepped aside and moved the chief clerk to the inspection room where guests and hosts were seated. There was no one to serve him now, only Qian Jinzhi poured him tea himself.

After the tea was poured, Qian Jinzhi took a stool and sat down and said, "I'll listen too, okay?"

Qiu Wuhen said: "Just listen if you want to, I know you want to see me having fun."

"My Lord Registrar has said that you have misunderstood. Listen carefully. You are actually a big official and you have great power!"

"You have the right? If you're not a group of Taoist priests, what's the point?"

The chief registrar said: "Sir, this official is different from the usual one. Because the Daolu Department is set up by the yamen in the capital in various local government offices, and there are corresponding officials to manage the monks and Taoism. And this time you are appointed by the imperial court.

You are an official directly appointed by the Daolu Department, which means that you are not subordinate to the local government like the Inspection Department, but directly subordinate to the imperial court. We are Jueyi sent by the imperial court. From this point of view, you are from the imperial court.

Officials, not to mention me, even Fei Zhixian will pay you three respects."

When Qiu Wuhen heard this, it turned out that he still had such an awesome identity. He couldn't help but grinned: "It sounds interesting, is there anything else?"

"Of course, not only is this official's salary higher than that of the local official, but he can't be controlled locally, and the higher ups can't control you. The mountain is high and the emperor is far away. Therefore, you are equivalent to a small feudal official here, but the whole area

All Taoist priests are under your control. There are dozens or hundreds of Taoist temples in the entire Yunduan County area, all of which are under your control. You are responsible for their rules and regulations and their execution."

"Whoever you think has violated the precepts can be punished, and you can even cancel his Taoist membership directly, and he will no longer be a Taoist priest. This is the biggest shame and fear of a Taoist priest. It is equivalent to dismissal, investigation, and dismissal.

It's one thing, investigation and prosecution is another, and removal from office and investigation is the most scary thing. Do you think you have great power?"

Qiu Wuhen curled his lips and said, "To be honest, I don't envy this kind of right. Is there any more?"

The chief clerk was a little embarrassed. He picked up the water cup and took a sip. It was a little hot. He stuck out his tongue and quickly put it down. He said: "There is one more thing, but this one may involve some secrets. Shopkeeper Qian, I'm sorry.

You may not be able to listen to what I say next."

When Qian Jinzhi heard this, he quickly stood up and said, "Okay then, just don't listen."

He just stood up and took two steps, then turned back and asked: "By the way, I want to ask him where the yamen is opened?"

"Transcendental view, have you ever heard of it?"

"Why haven't you heard of it? It's on Chaoran Mountain, about thirty miles away from Yunduan County."

"I didn't expect that shopkeeper Qian is also very familiar with Taoist temples!"

"How can we not be familiar with businessmen? Their Taoist temple buys a lot of medicinal materials from us, so of course I know. And I'm very familiar with the director of their Taoist temple!"

"So that's it. This Taoist temple is the largest Taoist temple in the entire Yunduan County, so it is responsible for the entire Yunduan County. So the Road Department decided to send a special official there, Jueyi, who is the official that Mr. Qiu is about to serve. This is

It didn't exist before, but it was newly established this time. It was sent to Chaoranguan by the Daolu Department of the imperial court and was responsible for managing all Taoists in the entire Yunduan County."

Qian Jinzhi said curiously: "Really? No wonder I haven't heard of it. I have been to Chaoshan Temple before, and I know all the Taoist temples inside. How come I haven't heard of the officials sent here by the Daolu Department?"

It turns out it was newly established this time.”

"Just because it is newly established, it shows its specialness. But this specialness cannot be explained to outsiders, so I'm sorry, hehe."

Qian Jinzhi also understood, sighed and said: "Okay, you two men can talk about it, I will leave."

Then he opened the door and went out, then closed the door again.

The chief clerk confirmed that the door was closed, and then took out another official document from his sleeve and handed it to Qiu Wuhen. This official document was sealed with fire paint and said: "Sir, this is from Fusi, Jinyiwei North Town.

I have a secret report that I want to hand over to you personally. I don’t know what it is, but it must be related to your mission this time. So I guess your mission this time is not just a simple awakening. It can be seen from this that

What a heavy responsibility you shoulder, and how much attention you receive from the court."

"I will put this letter of appointment on the table for you. You can read the Jin Yiwei's secret report yourself. I will go sit with Mr. Balu and have dinner together later in the evening. In addition, I will also bring the official who will replace you.

Let’s go through the handover tomorrow. After the handover is over, we will go back to the county government together. I will also send you to Chaozhanguan to serve as an official there! Of course, I am just accompanying you. I am not qualified to announce your appointment for you. It belongs to the imperial court.

thing."

With that said, the chief clerk cupped his hands and walked out with three steps.

Qiu Wuhen quickly removed the fire paint, opened the lid, poured out a scroll from the cylinder, and asked him to go to Jiuchongtian Restaurant in Yunduan County to find the shopkeeper to accept the secret mission. Jiuchongtian Restaurant is the secret agency for Jinyiwei to transmit information. This made Qiu Wuhen

Wuhen was a little nervous, thinking about what kind of mission it was, and it needed to be so complicated. It had not been written down on paper, and it had to be explained in person. Moreover, it had to be done through secret channels, and the end of the confidential letter also stated that it should be destroyed after reading.

It's even more strange.

He quickly lit a fire and burned the secret letter, stroking his chin and wondering what the mission was so mysterious. However, this secret letter made him feel at ease. The identity of the Jin Yiwei Baihu seemed to be real. Otherwise, the Jin Yiwei Baihu identity was real.

Beizhen Fusi wouldn't send secret messages and assign tasks to himself. This medicine gourd is really amazing. It can actually make him a member of the Imperial Guard. He doesn't know when he will be put in.

Don't even know.

After finishing the processing, Qiu Wuhen came out to Balu's house. Balu had received the news and was very happy. He congratulated Qiu Wuhen repeatedly. The chief clerk introduced the inspector who came to take over and ordered his servants to prepare a banquet.

It is necessary to celebrate and bid farewell to the old patrol inspector for his promotion, and to welcome the new patrol inspector.

This was purely an official entertainment, so Qian Jinzhi was not invited. He came back drunk that night, opened the door, and saw Qian Jinzhi sitting on a chair in his room with a smile, holding a glass of wine.

Tea is looking at him.

Qiu Wuhen burped and said, "It's so late, what are you doing in my room? It's not good for you to be alone. It's not good for you to be seen."

"It's not the first time this has happened. Don't be pretentious. I'm going to discuss something with you."

Qiu Wuhen smiled and sat on a chair nearby. Qian Jinzhi poured him a cup of tea and handed it over. Qiu Wuhen took it and took a sip before saying, "Okay, what's the matter?

Let's talk, we are old friends, I will agree to anything you can do."

Qian Jinzhi said: "I know you will definitely drink a lot tonight, so I prepared a pot of water by the bedside. If you wake up in the middle of the night and feel thirsty, you can drink it."

"You are really attentive, even more attentive than my wife." Qiu Wuhen smiled and poured himself another cup of tea to drink.

Qian Jinzhi snorted lightly and did not take Qiu Wuhen's drinking talk to heart, and said: "Stop talking to me about that and talk to me. Don't you want to be promoted to the enlightenment of Dao Lusi? That transcendental view lies in transcendence.

At the foot of the mountain, there is a small town not far away, called Chaoran Town. People come and go there and the transportation is convenient. Although the town is not big, it has a large population. I have always wanted to open a pharmacy there to sell medicine and provide medicine at the same time.

People see a doctor. Since you are an official there, you can just cover me. In addition, there are many wandering Taoists who have transcendental views and orders. Let them know that if someone with a headache and fever comes to buy medicine from me, I will give you a discount. That's it.

How is it going?"

Qiu Wuhen looked at her sideways and said, "Why do I feel like you are a drunkard and don't care about drinking? You seem to like to pester me and follow me around."

Qian Jinzhi's heart tightened, but it didn't show on his face. He said calmly: "Are you more important than my money? But don't forget, no one in my heart, Qian Jinzhi, is more important than money. Besides, who is more important than money?"

I'm so obsessed with you, I really think you are like a flower, and all the bees will surround you. As long as I can make money, I will not give up. This time I followed you to get a lot of herbs in Qianshan, and I made a lot of money.

Let me discover that you are a treasury. To be precise, you can bring treasury. There is always a chance to make a fortune by your side. Really, this idea came to me. Of course, I am not familiar with the new inspection coming now.

, I don’t want to cooperate with him, so I just need people to keep an eye on the business here, and if it doesn’t work, I’ll withdraw.”

When Qiu Wuhen saw that Qian Jinzhi, who usually didn't talk much, was so hasty to distance himself from him and spoke a lot of words, he couldn't help but laugh and said: "Don't be anxious, have a drink first."

Let’s talk about the water, be careful your throat won’t be comfortable for a while.”

Qian Jinzhi rolled his eyes at Qiu Wuhen, took a sip of tea seriously, and continued: "I don't want to waste time here alone. I think it's fun to follow you. Seeing you treating people and solving crimes, especially solving crimes,

I find it very exciting. And I don’t seem to be a burden to you. I can also be your helper when necessary. How about it, Master Baihu?"

Of course, Qiu Wuhen hoped that Qian Jinzhi would follow him, not only to protect his own safety, but most importantly, to be an old acquaintance, so he could rest assured. So he nodded in agreement and said, "Okay, of course you are willing to follow me. I wish I could have one more helper."

!There’s just one problem, I’m going to a Taoist temple, so you can’t stay with me in a Taoist temple.”

Seeing Qiu Wuhen's response, Qian Jinzhi felt happy and said, "I don't have to stay in the Taoist temple. I can just stay outside the Taoist temple. You haven't been to that Taoist temple. It's right next to the town. The Taoist temple

There are private houses outside, and it's not deep in the mountains. I rent a room in the private house outside. If you have anything to do, just call me anytime. In addition, the Taoist temple does not prohibit women from entering and leaving during the day, and they are very welcome, because they are very welcome.

Most of the people who offer incense and ask for fortune-telling are women! What's more, I have a good relationship with Lingxuzi, the abbot of the Taoist temple, and he won't kick me out."

Qiu Wuhen said: "In this case, it couldn't be better. Well, what else do you want to explain?"

"Another point."

Qian Jinzhi came closer and lowered his voice and said: "The people in that place are mixed. I sent you there to be an official like this this time. I'm afraid it depends on whether you want to make trouble. If you want to make trouble, there are plenty of things to do. If you don't want to make trouble,

Of course, anyone who is a dawdling official can do it. I really hope you choose the former, so that you can have fun and excitement, just like this time, how exciting."

Qiu Wuhen smiled but said nothing.

Qian Jinzhi smiled brightly, waved his hand, stood up and went out.

Early the next morning, after the handover was completed, Qiu Wuhen followed the chief clerk and Qian Jinzhi back to the county town.

They went home first, and Qiu Wuhen came to the back door as usual. When he knocked on the courtyard door, his apprentice Niu Shuitan said happily: "Master is back."

"Yeah, what are you busy with?"

"Recently, my home has been haunted again. This time Master Yin Ling couldn't control it, and even the Taoist rituals didn't seem to have any effect. The family is discussing whether to move out?"

Qiu Wuhen felt a little confused. Didn't this prove that the underground sounds came from the brothel? Why is there still something haunting?

He came to the hall. When the Su family learned that he was back, they all gathered around happily and met him in the hall, chattering. They had already received the news that Qiu Wuhen had been promoted, and everyone was very happy. Grandma Su

He happily said to him: "My husband has just been promoted for two months, and then he was promoted again. This is really a prosperous official career!"

Su Jinmei said: "It's just that Mr. Xian is going to be an official in a Taoist temple this time. Will he become a monk?"

Qiu Wuhen couldn't help but feel a little funny and said: "This official is a yamen official. He is a Taoist priest, not a Taoist priest. Besides, what's wrong with being a Taoist priest? Today's Taoist priests get married and have children, eat, drink and eat meat.

It’s not prohibited.”

"What you are talking about is a true religion. The Quanzhen religion has very strict precepts, including fasting and not allowing marriage."
