Cao Xing was dancing and excited as he spoke, while Ning Chen was expressionless as he listened.
In fact, Ning Chen should be happy about this, but Ning Chen really couldn't be happy.
The more they behave like this, the harder it will be for Ning Chen to leave.
Especially now, no one objects to it, and he even got himself a Book of Ten Thousand Peoples.
Isn't this forcing yourself?
Cao Xing looked at Ning Chen who looked calm and admired Ning Chen even more.
In the eyes of a veteran official like Cao Xing, he was able to obtain such high public opinion.
That is the greatest compliment for an official.
It is easy to be an official in the officialdom, but it is really difficult to be an official supported and loved by the people.
And in Cao Xing's eyes, Ning Chen's current calmness was really not a deliberate act.
Because Ning Chen has been so calm from the beginning.
From Ning Chen, Cao Xing also learned a way to become an official.
As long as you do things down-to-earth, the people will see it.
As for those frivolous things, avoid them if you can.
Ning Chen didn't know that Cao Xing had realized so many things.
Ning Chen is currently thinking about how to break through.
The Western Region is once again in decline this time, so my kill level will probably be even more of a priority.
When the time comes when our side is ready to break through, those in the Western Region will definitely plot against us.
…
Above the court hall.
The figures given by Lin Dunxin were really like slaps in the face one after another, hitting all of them in the face.
They would like to refute, but the numbers are here and there is no room for them to refute.
What's more, they initiated this matter on their own initiative.
Of course, they can use this number to make fuss, such as saying that the leader of Ning Chen, who has done a great job in defeating Ning Chen, must be weakened.
But now the clan is silent. They stand up and are weak.
Moreover, looking at Wu Zhao's attitude, it was obvious that he was not at all bothered by Ning Chen's high public opinion.
There is even a sense of being happy for Ning Chen.
Now that I mention this, I think a meal would be light.
After Lin Dunxin finished speaking, Wu Zhao directly concluded the matter:
"If anyone mentions the matter of seeking peace in the future, they will be treated as treason!"
This time it was done and it became a capital crime.
The next thing is whoever mentions and who dies.
After the dispersion of the dynasty, Wu Zhao left the Jinluan Palace with his head held high.
The clan and many civil servants further felt the deep sense of powerlessness at this moment.
With the help of Ning Chen, Wu Zhao is really getting stronger and stronger.
Power was increasingly concentrated in Wu Zhao's hands.
Next, the court may become Wu Zhao's one-word hall, or a two-person affair between Wu Zhao and Ning Chen.
This is by no means a good signal for these ambitious civil servants.
Likewise for the clan, an emperor is powerful enough to completely ignore the clan.
It's also not a good thing for the clan.
Although the clan can use many clan etiquette and family ties to impose various restrictions on the emperor.
However, by the same token, the clan also exists dependent on the imperial power.
Most of the clan's benefits come from imperial power.
If the imperial power is too strong, the interests of the clan will inevitably be greatly reduced.
If the reigning emperor were more indifferent to family affection.
As long as it ensures that the clan will not starve to death, then the clan will be really unlucky.
After leaving the Jinluan Palace, the civil servants of the dynasty approached Lin Dunxin one after another.
Express his various ‘concerns’ about Ning Chen to Lin Dunxin.
Faced with this influx of worries, Wang Lin, who was passing by, sneered: "I really want to remind you that in addition to being the champion, the champion is also the dean of hundreds of colleges and the leader of many saints.
host."
Wang Lin said it very cryptically, but the meaning was conveyed.
In other words, how could Ning Chen, a person who could become a saint and be above the imperial power, be greedy for the imperial power?
"Wang Xiang, what do you mean by this, but to say that the champion actually despises the imperial power?" Someone deliberately caught the linguistic errors in Wang Lin's words and said angrily.
After trying the benefits brought by martial arts, Wang Lin went straight to full fire: "You either have a bad brain or a bad ear.
What I said was that Mr. Champion despises the imperial power. If Mr. Champion despises the imperial power, why would Mr. Champion accept the title of His Majesty?
If you are old, you should retire as soon as possible and don't occupy a good place here and do nothing."
After listening to Wang Lin's words, the passing generals stood down and actively expressed their support: "Prime Minister Wang, this is not occupying a good place, but occupying a latrine and not shitting."
"He must have been in the latrine for so long that his brain and ears were damaged."
"I guess my nose is not working well now. I can't even smell the odor on my own body. I can smell the sour odor on his body from a long distance away."
After a group of military generals expressed their support for Wang Lin, they took the initiative to say to Wang Lin: "Can the Prime Minister please honor me and have a drink with me at Zuixian Tower?"
After being supported by military generals twice, Wang Lin couldn't refuse: "Okay, I'll treat you generals to a drink."
"Hourage, this is the spirit a soldier should have."
"Don't worry, Minister of War, these civil servants will go against us again in the future. We promise to scold the shit out of them."
A group of generals and Wang Lin left the palace arm in arm.
The old Hanlin who had just been scolded was so angry that his face was livid and his whole body was trembling.
Old Hanlin had no choice but to go to Wang Lin to ask for justice, so he could only cry bitterly to Lin Dunxin:
"Prime Minister Lin, look at it! This is our current court. It's so smoky, Prime Minister Lin, as the head of the civil service, you have to make the decision for us!"
Other civil servants also took advantage of the topic and hoped that Lin Dunxin would make the decision for them.
Lin Dunxin looked at these civil servants, feeling somewhat hopeful at this moment that those generals were still there.
In this case, even if you scold them, you will be at peace.
In the absence of the generals, Lin Dunxin could only do his best to appease these civilian officials.
After all, most of these civil servants are still useful talents.
The governance of a state capital and county cannot be governed by military generals.
The execution of many government orders still relies on these civil servants.
Although Lin Dunxin looked down upon them, he could not live without them.
Balancing the relationship between these is precisely the direction that Lin Dunxin strives to practice.
…
Hezhou Baijiacheng.
After Cao Xing left, Ning Chen also found Bai Yaoyao.
Bai Yaoyao saw Ning Chen's expression and guessed what Ning Chen was struggling with.
"Actually, you can completely ignore these public opinions. After you break through, no matter what the Western Region does, I believe that with your ability, you can turn the tide and restore the situation."
Ning Chen actually thought about doing this, but Ning Chen really couldn't pass this psychological level.
It was even said that if he changed to another place, not in Baijiacheng, but somewhere else in Hezhou, Ning Chen would be able to leave without looking back.
But the people of Baijia City loved Ning Chen so much that Ning Chen couldn't bear to let go.
Ning Chen even once doubted whether all the people in Hezhou Baijia City were traitors sent from the Western Regions.
The purpose is to delay myself and keep myself in Hezhou.
But obviously such a thing is simply impossible to happen.
"Senior sister, let's get ready. We'll be preparing for a breakthrough in the next couple of days. I'll tell my teacher later and ask him to come over quietly." Ning Chen finally made the decision to stay in Baijiacheng and break through.
Decide.
Bai Yaoyao was not surprised at all that Ning Chen made such a decision.
In Bai Yaoyao's eyes, this is the real Ning Chen.
Despite Ning Chen's cynicism, Ning Chen is actually more responsible than anyone else.
He is cynical and just doesn't want to bear it, or in other words, he avoids bearing so much.
Because Bai Yaoyao knew what Ning Chen would do if he decided to do it.
Then Ning Chen will definitely not take a step back.
This kind of Ning Chen makes Bai Yaoyao feel cute and reassured.
Bai Yaoyao has met too many people who talk about responsibility and responsibility all day long.
But once something happens, they will run faster than anyone else.
"Senior sister, do you think there is anything else I need to prepare?" Ning Chen asked Bai Yaoyao nervously.
After all, it was about his own life, so Ning Chen was still very nervous.
Bai Yaoyao saw Ning Chen's nervousness, and took the initiative to hold Ning Chen's hand and said: "As long as you are ready, leave the rest to us. No matter what, I will protect you."
Ning Chen looked at the hand held by Bai Yaoyao, and then looked at Bai Yaoyao's serious expression, dumbfounded: "Senior sister, if I were a woman, I would definitely be very moved."
Bai Yaoyao thought for a moment and put her hand in Ning Chen's palm: "When you are able to protect me, I will let you protect me to reach the first level."
Ning Chen held Bai Yaoyao's soft catkins in his hands: "Senior sister, don't worry, even if I risk my life, I will protect you until the time comes.
When you, senior sister, break through to the first level, I will lie down completely and let you, senior sister, protect me."
Bai Yaoyao didn't think Ning Chen was joking, but nodded seriously: "Okay, I will protect you when the time comes."
Looking at this protective senior sister, Ning Chen really felt at ease and helpless.
One day, when he said, "Senior sister, I don't want to work hard anymore" and the senior sister agreed, Ning Chen felt particularly awkward.
Just when Ning Chen was thinking about how to proceed.
Suddenly he saw Bai Yaoyao in front of him, emitting a soft light.
After a short while, a unicorn appeared in Bai Yaoyao's hand.
"I see that you don't seem to have any weapons at hand. This horn is my destiny, although it cannot be compared with a saint-level magic weapon.
But it should be able to compete with magic weapons below the saint level."
Ning Chen looked at the unicorn that Bai Yaoyao gave away, and naturally he didn't dare to pick it up.
This is Bai Yaoyao's destiny. Let alone losing it, even if it is damaged, it will have a great impact on Bai Yaoyao.
"Senior sister, even if I don't use magic weapons, I still have a lot of self-protection capabilities." Ning Chen clearly rejected Bai Yaoyao's kindness.
Seeing Ning Chen's attitude, Bai Yaoyao knew what Ning Chen was worried about, so she also said to Ning Chen: "You can keep it with you for protection for the time being, and then return it to me after you break through.
It is not the best to use it, if it is used at all.
Even if it's damaged a little, with my current cultivation level, it won't have much impact on me."
After saying that, Bai Yaoyao stuffed the gentle jade horn into Ning Chen's hand.
Ning Chen held the horn in his hand and said still very uneasy: "Senior sister, is everything you said true?"
Bai Yaoyao said calmly: "Of course it is true."
Seeing that Bai Yaoyao didn't seem to be lying, Ning Chen also accepted Dujiao for the time being.
Holding the horn given by Bai Yaoyao, Ning Chen also curiously asked: "Senior sister, I have never known what your true form is?"
"Bai Ze." Bai Yaoyao didn't hide anything from Ning Chen.
"Senior sister, your true body is actually Bai Ze!"
Ning Chen really didn't expect that Bai Yaoyao's real body was actually Bai Ze.
Needless to say, Bai Ze has the blood of a mythical beast. The key is that Bai Ze is known as the Demon Master.
Because according to legend, it was Bai Ze’s teachings that led the demon ancestor to evolve into the demon clan.
At the same time, it was also because of Bai Ze's teachings that the demon clan awakened their various bloodline talents.
Eventually it developed into the huge monster country it is now.
Bai Ze is to the entire demon race what Confucian Sage is to the human race.
Even many mythical beasts were carefully trained by Bai Ze and told him how to make them.
Bai Ze is really important to the mythical beasts and monsters.
It's just that Bai Ze is very, very rare. Even among mythical beasts, it is a very rare existence.
Now Ning Chen understood why the little fat dragon became so close to Bai Yaoyao when he saw her.
"Didn't Master Kong tell you?" Bai Yaoyao asked when she saw Ning Chen being so shocked.
Ning Chen shook his head repeatedly, saying that Kong Jijiu had never told him about this matter.
"Senior sister, if you reach the first level, wouldn't you be able to compete with a half-step saint?" Ning Chen knew some of Bai Ze's characteristics, so he made such a judgment.
Bai Yaoyao shook his head and said: "It's not that easy. The activation level of my bloodline is not high, and there seems to be some problems in my Bai Ze bloodline. This is because I did not practice according to the way of the beast, but should take up martial arts.
reason."
When Bai Yaoyao said this, Ning Chen remembered.
Divine beasts have their own unique cultivation methods.
For example, the little fat dragon, for example, the Qilin King and the Divine Phoenix King in Fengjing.
Those are all based on the unique cultivation methods of mythical beasts.
It does not require step-by-step improvement.
Bai Yaoyao seems to have always followed the path of martial arts.
"Senior sister, who did something to your bloodline? Is it a god or a saint?" Ning Chen asked with a frown.
Bai Zegui is a divine beast, and apart from gods and demons, the only ones who can manipulate the bloodline of the divine beast are saints.
The reason why Ning Chen did not rule out the suspicion of a saint was because the Buddha in the Western Regions was also a saint.
And this saint, compared to other saints in the human race, is a little more narrow-minded.
Bai Yaoyao didn't know the answer to this question either.
This was an ancestral matter, and Bai Yaoyao didn't know it either.
What Bai Yaoyao knew clearly was that there was something wrong with their bloodline.
Martial arts is the best way Bai Yaoyao can think of to solve the problem of bloodline.
