Yu Xiyi quickly reacted, "You kid, you must be asking for something from me, otherwise you can be so polite?"
Chen Chao said with a sincere face: "The first day you met me? I've always been like this, haven't you?"
Yu Xiyi sneered, "Do you think I believe it or not?"
Chen Chao smiled bitterly.
This guy has always been a talker, and Chen Chao was used to it. He quickly got down to business, "I heard that over at Jianqi Mountain, you Jianzong disciples are no longer allowed to go up the mountain to get swords. There were many Jianzong swords in the past."
Xiu went to negotiate, but was turned away?"
Yu Xiyi nodded, not hiding it, "I heard about this on the way to the capital of the gods, but I don't care about it. It's the sect leader's own fault."
Chen Chao said with a smile: "You can't say that. The master of the Sword Sect is now a master of swordsmanship. Naturally, he doesn't need any swords. But the other sword cultivators in your sect can't be without swords, right? You are also a sword cultivator yourself, and you don't have Fei Fei.
You should also know what the sword tastes like."
Yu Xiyi frowned.
Chen Chao said: "You have become a swordsman yourself, but you don't care about the junior brothers, nephews and so on in your sect?"
Yu Xiyi was silent for a moment, sighed and said angrily: "The sect leader did admit his mistake before going into seclusion. It's just that for some things, it just needs to be wrong. Otherwise, where will it come from?"
It’s too late to regret it?”
"Before I came to Shendu, I also received a message from the sect, asking me to think of a way. I have no connection with Jianqi Mountain and I still owe favors. What can I do?!"
The Sword Sect is a strange sect. They don’t rely on external objects or magic weapons. It’s enough for the swordsman to have his own flying sword. In the past, he always went to Jianqi Mountain to get the sword, so he owed a favor.
That's it, now that they are not allowed to take swords at Jianqi Mountain, they have no choice.
Although the leader of the Sword Sect once said before going into seclusion again that he could take swords from the mountains and use them in the future, who the hell couldn't figure out that the flying swords from Jianqi Mountain and his own flying swords could be the same thing?
Chen Chao laughed heartily.
Yu Xiyi suddenly asked: "You know so many things, how can you do it?"
Chen Chao nodded and said: "Daliang has some friendship with Jianqi Mountain. Of course I have some friendship with them. How do you think I got this bamboo building? It shouldn't be difficult to help you."
After hearing this, Yu Xiyi turned around and looked at the bamboo building, and then realized that the green bamboo used in the entire bamboo building was the green bamboo from Jianqi Mountain.
Yu Xiyi raised his eyebrows and said, "How do you say that?"
Chen Chao said seriously: "The imperial court has a stone mine about three hundred miles away from Jianqi Mountain. It happens to have the materials needed for sword training in Jianqi Mountain. I can make the decision and give them ten years of mining rights in exchange for you, the disciples of the Sword Sect, to start a new life."
Go up the mountain and get the sword."
"Relationships are relationships. You, the Sword Sect, have admitted your mistake, but you have to build a ladder and let people get down."
Yu Xiyi raised his eyebrows and said: "Ten years of mining rights have cost a lot of money!"
"What do you want from the Sword Sect?"
Yu Xiyi knew that the Chen Chao in front of him was someone who liked to do good things for no reason.
Chen Chao rubbed his hands and said with a smile: "Easy to talk about, didn't your Sword Sect leader also receive your Majesty's advice? In fact, we have been good friends for a long time, haven't we?"
Yu Xiyi said with a straight face, "Tell me something."
Chen Chao smiled and said, "The first condition is that you have to stay in the city of God for a longer time."
Yu Xiyi sneered as he listened, "Who do you think I am?
"
Chen Chao looked at him.
"Before I came to the capital of the gods, I had already decided to live here and would not leave."
Chen Chao asked curiously: "Live here all your life?"
Yu Xiyi shook his head and said: "When there is a war in the north, I will naturally go to the city head of the north."
Chen Chao clapped his hands and said, "Okay, then just pretend that I didn't mention this condition. Originally I thought it was too much to mention two conditions, but now it's okay, and there's only one condition left."
Yu Xiyi cursed loudly.
Chen Chao patted his shoulder and said, "Yu Xiyi
Yu Xiyi, you may be a good swordsman, but when it comes to business, you have no brains at all."
"Then I will make a condition. In the future, if we, Daliang, go to war with the demon clan, can Jian Zong send about a hundred people to fight in the northern border?"
Chen Chao looked at Yu Xiyi in front of him, smiled and spoke.
Yu Xiyi sneered and said: "I can see it clearly. You just want ten years of mining rights for a stone mine and you want hundreds of people from my sword sect to work for you?"
Chen Chao corrected: "It's not me, it's the human race."
Yu Xiyi thought for a moment and said: "I can't make the decision on this matter, but I will write back to help you ask. I think the problem shouldn't be big. You
The boy made a lot of money."
Chen Chao said: "Why don't you give me more advice? One hundred people is just my bottom line, but as for sword cultivators, the more the better. Who doesn't know that your sword cultivators from the Sword Sect have unparalleled killing power in the world, so naturally the more the better!"
Yu Xiyi looked at Chen Chao and said seriously: "They are also human beings and have their own ideas. In fact, no matter how many people you want, it is better to have only a few who sincerely want to go."
Chen Chao was silent.
"However, I will try my best to promote this matter and strive for the next war. Our Sword Sect has sword cultivators standing at the top of the city."
Yu Xiyi smiled and said, "But even if they don't come, I will still be there."
Chen Chao was silent for a moment, looked at Yu Xiyi in front of him, and sighed: "In this case, I won't hide it anymore. Let me tell you, from now on, I, Daliang, will never think about just preventing the monster clan from going south. After I finish dealing with Fangwai
Something like this may lead to the first Northern Expedition of the human race in a thousand years."
"Northern Expedition?"
Yu Xiyi was also a little surprised. He had never thought about these things, but he didn't expect that Chen Chao had already made a plan.
Chen Chao shook his head and said: "This is not what I thought. In other words, since His Majesty ascended the throne, this matter has been planned. However, there are many things to be done before, so this is only a matter of the future.
Now, all we have to do is to finish what we did before. Maybe the shame of Thirty Thousand Miles in Mobei can be completely wiped off our generation."
Yu Xiyi said sincerely: "Your Majesty is amazing."
Chen Chao smiled bitterly and said, "Why don't you leave the mess to me?"
Yu Xiyi smiled and said, "In that case, count me in."
Chen Chao nodded.
…
…
After bidding farewell to Yu Xiyi, Chen Chao took a look at the sky and headed to the academy.
Yesterday, Xie Nandu sent back news that Zhou Gouqi had reappeared in the academy. Yesterday, many teachers in the academy had gone to meet him. This probably meant that the academy was now leaderless, and it was about time for this newly minted saint to act as the academy's agent.
Some people have even sent letters to the North Territory to ask the dean for his opinion.
In fact, there are still many teachers who cannot accept the fact that the dean went to the north.
Besides, there is no war now. Why is the dean going here?
However, no matter how much they tried to persuade this Confucian saint, they could not get his approval.
Zhou Gouqi finally proposed to let Xie Nandu take charge of the academy.
It's just this suggestion that makes many teachers hesitate. Although Xie Nandu has shown his abilities these days, he is still young after all, so it may be difficult to convince others.
"Actually, everyone is too worried. You should know that Chen Chao is only of this age, and now he is the guardian envoy of Daliang. What's wrong with young people producing talents?"
Zhou Gouqi looked at these white-haired teachers and said softly: "I really have some trivial matters to attend to, I'm afraid it will be difficult to stay in the academy for a long time."
A teacher asked, "Can't I just wait for you to finish the work?"
Zhou Gouqi shook his head and said with a smile: "After I finish what I want to do, it probably won't be appropriate to take charge of the academy again."
Hearing this, the teachers were a little disappointed, and some wanted to ask more questions, but at this time, Zhou Gouqi was already preparing to drive them away.
When the instructors left, there was a young man in black carrying two altars
Zijiu stood outside the door and laughed loudly: "Auntie, I'm here to see you!"
After hearing these words, a figure rushed out of the house. It was Zhou Gouqi's wife who had lost a lot of weight.
The woman looked at Chen Chao with smiles in her eyes, and hurriedly came to the door, pulled Chen Chao's sleeves to look at him, then compared them again, and said with emotion: "You have grown a lot taller, you are stronger than before.
"
In Tianqing County back then, although Chen Chao would scold Zhou Gouqi every time they met, he had a good relationship with the woman in front of him.
During those days when he didn't have enough to eat, this woman helped Chen Chao a lot.
Chen Chao smiled awkwardly and glanced at the two jars of wine in his hand. He came in a hurry this time and didn't have time to buy anything.
The woman was also a thoughtful person. Seeing that Chen Chao was in trouble, she quickly smiled and said, "I'm here as soon as I come. I don't need to take anything. Isn't that just an outsider?"
Chen Chao chuckled and said, "I'll definitely do it next time."
The woman also nodded and joked: "When I come next time, my aunt will be angry if I don't bring anything."
Zhou Gouqi stood in the yard, watching this scene, and said angrily: "You still dare to ask for his things? This kid is now the number one military attache in the Liang Dynasty. If you piss him off, what good things do you think you will get?
"
The woman who was still smiling at first heard this, and half of her smile disappeared in an instant. The remaining half was maintained by her force, otherwise it would be gone at all.
Only then did he realize that the young man in front of him was no longer the boy who used to quarrel with his men in the alley every day.
But if you think about it carefully, even the man in your family has become a so-called saint. It is so amazing, so it seems that it is natural for this young man to be amazing.
Chen Chao looked at the expression of the woman in front of him, stretched out his hand to hold her wrist, and said with a smile: "Auntie, you are the same as you were before. Don't show it to others, otherwise I will be really sad."
The woman tried her best to put on a smile.
Chen Chao consoled him and said, "My parents died early. I came to Taohua Lane in the early years, but I really treated my aunt like a half-mother. Now that we are separated, it's really not okay."
After hearing this, the woman finally relaxed and laughed, "Then wait a moment, and my aunt will cook for you."
Chen Chao smiled, as if he had returned to the narrow Peach Blossom Lane.
