Chen Chao walked into the governor's office and saw the slightly shabby lobby. He curiously turned his head and glanced at Wang Zhen, who had been following behind him. He asked with a smile: "I knew that I was coming, so I tidied up in advance."
?”
Hearing this, the other officials of the Guardian Yamen wanted to explain to their lord, but Wang Zhen waved his hand and said with a smile: "If your lord, the Guardian really wants to find it, there is only one piece of cake in this room."
The tea is worth some money."
Chen Chao waved his hand and said with a smile: "Then why are you still standing there? I'm already here, why don't you invite me to have a drink."
Wang Zhen was startled. He really didn't expect that Chen Chao actually wanted to have a drink with him here. He was a little excited and hurriedly asked people to prepare. Then he stood beside Chen Chao with some restraint.
"Sit down, why is my yamen so formal?"
Chen Chao waved his hand and motioned for Wang Zhen to sit down.
Wang Zhen didn't shirk it. He had tea with the guardian envoy today, and after telling the public about it, the officials under him would probably be jealous.
After sitting down, while waiting for tea, Wang Zhen hesitated for a moment and then asked softly: "My lord, you seem to be injured."
In fact, there is no need to ask, anyone with a discerning eye can tell it at a glance. After all, with Chen Chao like this now, let alone being injured, just saying that he is about to die, no one will doubt it.
Chen Chao nodded, "I have been working hard all my life. It seems I have to walk down the narrow path between life and death. I fought to the death in a battle before and almost lost my life."
Wang Zhen asked curiously: "Are they the strong men hired by those casual cultivators?"
When Chen Chao went to the northern border to kill those important figures of the casual cultivators, he was
Know clearly.
Chen Chao shook his head and sighed: "It's a tigress."
This answer made Wang Zhen confused, but it was not his first day as an official. He knew that his master didn't want to talk, so he didn't ask again, but quietly kept his mouth shut.
Wang Zhen only had admiration for this man who could become the best military attache in his dynasty at such a young age and had no other thoughts.
Chen Chao glanced at Wang Zhen and asked with a smile: "After today, you will be stared at by countless pairs of eyes in Jiang'an County, or else I will transfer you elsewhere?"
Wang Zhen shook his head without thinking and said: "Xiaguan has not yet completely dealt with the evil problem in Jiang'an County, and the safety of the people here has not yet been resolved. Xiaguan does not want to be transferred to other places."
In fact, Chen Chao's transfer to another place did not indicate whether it was a promotion or a flat transfer. However, judging from Wang Zhencai's previous achievements, the probability of promotion is actually not small. He is already the governor of a county. If he is promoted, it will probably be
He was about to become the garrison envoy of the state capital, which was actually a step up to his career for Wang Zhen, but he refused without thinking, which somewhat surprised Chen Chao.
Before coming, Chen Chao had read the files of the Jiang'an County garrison. He was originally a depressed low-level military attache who served as a captain in the south. After being investigated by Baichuan Pavilion, he learned that this person's realm and character were quite high.
Yes, Chen Chaocai used the power in his hands to get him over. Although the guardian envoy lineage was somewhat difficult to deal with with the northern border army, the ordinary troops in the Daliang Kingdom still had a crush on this guardian envoy.
Don't dare to feel dissatisfied.
What's more, the shadow of the famous tree of today's people in Chen Dynasty, although
In the eyes of the civil servants at court, he acted domineeringly, but in the eyes of the military attachés, everything he did was filled with happiness.
Therefore, the Ministry of War did not hold anyone back, not to mention that they never knew how much real ability Wang Zhen had.
Just treat him as an ordinary captain.
After that, Chen Chao did not speak in a hurry, but waited for the tea to be served. After he took a sip, he narrowed his eyes and smiled and said: "Wang Zhen, what do you want in this life?"
Wang Zhen did not hesitate and said bluntly: "It would be a lie to say that I don't want to be promoted, but I still want to be a good official, do something for the people, and do what I want in my job."
Chen Chao said with a smile: "Some people often set great ambitions when they were young, thinking that it would be great if they could accomplish this in this life, but later on, time passes and the youthful spirit in their hearts gradually wears away. What do you think?"
"I can't guarantee that my thoughts will be consistent in this life, but if one day my virtue is not matched and I do something that will bring shame to Daliang, please chop my head off with a knife."
Wang Zhen knelt down on one knee with a solemn expression.
Chen Chao looked at this middle-aged warrior whom he had just met for the first time, and said with a smile: "One day, you will not be able to see me, but I believe that you will probably not be like this in this life."
Wang Zhen raised his head and looked at the young guardian in front of him with some doubts.
Chen Chao picked up the tea cup and said calmly: "Get up, my current official's reputation is much worse than yours."
"The rotten scholars in the court are short-sighted. How do they know that the guardian envoy has done something for me, Daliang, and that nothing is done to straighten his back?"
Wang Zhen smiled bitterly and said: "That is to say, the lower officials cannot go to the court in Shendu to attend court, otherwise, they will have to scold them."
A curse."
Chen Chao asked in surprise: "When did you dare to say that you can scold those scholars as soon as you become a martial artist?"
Wang Zhen was speechless.
"However, I have never lost when I scolded others in the past."
Chen Chao stood up, glanced at Wang Zhen, and said with a smile: "After talking so much gossip, I will tell you a few words from the bottom of my heart. I have defeated the loose cultivators in the North, and now I want to let Qingyue
Please help those loose cultivators gather together in Shanshan to handle this matter."
Wang Zhen frowned slightly, a little confused and even a little reluctant.
Chen Chao said: "If you want to get rid of the demon problem, how can you get rid of it? Can you do it with just a few of your men? You first stabilize the casual cultivators in the North, and then recruit a group of casual cultivators to eliminate the demons together. Wouldn't it be much faster?"
"
Wang Zhen suddenly became enlightened, nodded and said with a smile: "Your Majesty is absolutely right."
Chen Chao said: "I am a casual cultivator in the north. I will be of great use in the future. You must manage it well. If things go wrong, you will just sit in this position for the rest of your life without moving!"
Wang Zhen laughed loudly. The Lord Guardian in front of him was really interesting. Even threatening people showed a kind of cuteness. However, Wang Zhen quickly remembered that the Lord Guardian in front of him faced people like Su Tong.
At that time, I didn’t say even a single nonsense word.
In fact, it is difficult for him to put these two people on the same person.
After Chen Chao drank the tea, he stood up and said, "Drink your tea and you will complete the tasks assigned by me and you will be visible to the gods in the future."
Wang Zhen said gratefully: "Thank you sir for your support."
Chen Chao said nothing and turned to leave.
Wang Zhen whispered: "Sir, would you like me to send someone to escort you? Your return to the capital of the gods is going to be dangerous."
Chen Chao
Wu Zhi said: "Some people want to kill me, but I still want to kill others."
…
…
In Chixin Guan, after Yun Jianyue became the temple master, this sect with the most powerful Taoist sect became much more low-key. Although there were still many voices of dissatisfaction with Daliang in the temple, they were suppressed by the new temple master.
.
Although Yun Jianyue does not have much prestige in front of the older Taoist priests, his prestige among the younger generation is very high. In addition, the old man in the temple personally made this young Taoist the leader of the temple, so even for Yun Jianyue
Jian Yue was dissatisfied, and many people just remained silent and did not dare to say more.
What's more, this current Guanzhu stepped into Wangyou earlier and killed Zhang Lu. I'm afraid it won't be long before he reaches the end of Wangyou and becomes the youngest Taoist master in the thousand years of Taoist history.
Zhenren, a Taoist genius with such a promising future, even if some people want him to die, the old people in the temple will not do so.
Geniuses are not rare, but they are by no means common. However, a peerless genius like Yun Jianyue only occurs once every thousand years.
Yun Jianyue, who had been in retreat for countless times these days, came out again. Taoist masters retreated for a long time. They often lasted for more than ten years. There were not a few, and even shorter ones lasted for a year and a half.
But this young infatuated contemplative master’s retreat can be as long as one month or as short as half a month. In the eyes of many old people, this is just like playing house. However, this young contemplative master just walks very fast and retreats in one session.
Being released from seclusion once is equivalent to a year of hard training for others.
After leaving the customs this time, Yun Jianyue came to the main hall where the temple owner lived. She had been watching the temple infatuatedly these days.
When he was away, apart from a few elders who came to discuss the important matter, there was also one other person, Ye Zhihua, who also participated.
Seeing Yun Jianyue coming here, several elderly Taoists bowed their hands and saluted, and then they were all surprised by Yun Jianyue's current state.
In today's crazy view, I'm afraid that except for those uncles who are in seclusion and practice, no one can compare with Yun Jianyue.
Yun Jianyue sent away several old Taoists, and then looked at Ye Zhihua who was silent here.
"Sister."
Yun Jianyue opened her mouth and shouted, and Ye Zhihua nodded to him. This cold-tempered woman got straight to the point and talked to Yun Jianyue about recent events without any politeness. Most of the matters related to the concept of infatuation have been dealt with by her.
After a pause, Ye Zhihua looked at Yun Jianyue and said calmly: "The young warrior went to Wantian Palace once. For some reason, he stayed there for some time, and then went to Beidi and killed a few scattered people.
Xiu, then disappeared without a trace. Recently there was news that a guard general was killed in Xinliuzhou."
Yun Jianyue smiled and said: "He actually likes to kill people."
"Someone saw it with their own eyes. His face was pale and his movements were slow. He must have been seriously injured. I'm afraid someone has already gone to kill him."
When Ye Zhihua got the news, he hesitated immediately whether to send someone to intercept the young warrior and prevent him from returning to the divine capital, but after thinking about it in the end, he still did not do so.
She knew that her junior brother didn't like it.
Yun Jianyue said: "Sometimes he acts too straight, sometimes too hastily. Although he can walk very fast, he is destined to have some troubles. Many people outside the country are afraid of him, but after knowing that he is weak,
You will want to make him disappear forever, which is normal."
Ye Zhihua said: "I haven't been a spectator in the temple for a long time."
Yun Jianyue smiled and said, "Why not be a spectator now?"
Ye Zhihua was silent for a moment, then changed the subject and said, "You sent people out to sea to look for your uncle before, but most of them... there was no news."
This was Yun Jianyue's decision after repeatedly watching the scene in the demonic bead. He felt that maybe Master Wu Hao really did not die in that sea.
If you are really still alive, you should take yourself back to the meditation.
"Most of them don't, but there are some."
Yun Jianyue looked at Ye Zhihua and said with a smile: "Senior sister suppressed the news."
"It wasn't necessarily true in the first place, but now that it's not public, it makes sense."
Ye Zhihua glanced at Yun Jianyue with mixed emotions.
"Then you should talk to me, right?" Yun Jianyue rubbed her brows, knowing that her senior sister was protecting him in every possible way.
"Some people say they vaguely saw a crazy Taoist priest on the sea, but I don't know whether it is true or not. None of the disciples I sent out were able to cross that sea."
When Ye Zhihua said this, he was silent for a moment and asked: "Have you ever thought about who should sit in the position of the contemporary master once your uncle comes back?"
Yun Jianyue said matter-of-factly: "Since my uncle is still alive, let him do it. I don't think anyone will object."
"how about you?"
Ye Zhihua frowned and said, "Don't you think about yourself?"
Yun Jianyue smiled and said: "What do you think? Let's argue with my uncle? In fact, why bother? My uncle will grow old and die one day. It's not impossible to talk about it when the time comes."
"You two have completely different thoughts. When the time comes for him to do this, you will
So, what about you?"
Ye Zhihua stared at Yun Jianyue in front of him. For his junior brother, Ye Zhihua often didn't know how to persuade him.
"That's a problem."
Yun Jianyue was silent for a moment. After becoming the master of the contemplation these days, he could really see the true side of this infatuation contemplation.
He didn't like this very much.
This place where the Taoist sect is the leader actually has fewer Taoists and more people.
"Then we'll discuss it with my uncle at that time. If we can't discuss it together, we'll talk about it."
Yun Jianyue quickly figured it out, and then said: "This time I leave the customs, I plan to visit Wantian Palace."
Ye Zhihua frowned and said, "Why?"
Yun Jianyue said softly: "I heard there is a way over there."
