Chapter 625: You Are Dead (Monthly Pass)
The terrible thing about Jianya Kaifu is not the Kaifu.
The real gold content is tooth building.
The so-called building of teeth means that when a person reaches a certain level of status, he needs to establish his own guard force. The leader of the troops is called the genital general and the flag used is the genital flag.
However, here, Jianya did not mean building an armed force, but gave Chen Kaizhi the ability to build his own team, the Duke of Protecting the Country.
In this world, many people have their own teams. Even a businessman has their own managers, housekeepers, and shopkeepers are responsible for doing their business for him.
However, if you want to truly recruit talents, it is not enough to rely on gold and silver to buy them.
True talents, although they also need gold and silver, may not take gold and silver too seriously, because this is an era where identity is more important than gold and silver.
Many people spend countless energy on studying, and only one thing is to be an official, but it is difficult to be an official. If you want to enter the official career, you need to pass exams again and again. What you pay is not just hardships, but the most important thing is... luck.
In this world, talented people are like crucian carp trees, but there are probably not many lucky people.
But these people are unlucky, but from then on they become lost in the crowd, and their future ends here.
This is the real terrifying thing about Jianya. He allowed Chen Kaizhi to establish the public office on his own and could grant him official positions.
No matter who this person is, as long as Chen Kaizhi likes him, he can be awarded an official position.
So, how many people will be willing to join Chen Kaizhi's command, hoping to gain the social status they deserve from Chen Kaizhi?
Talents are always precious, but most of the talents in the world are monopolized by the court, and the rest are either the disciples of the sect kings or they hide in the mountains.
Chen Kaizhi, the Duke of Protecting the Country, may not be nothing, but if he, the governor of Jibei, would be completely different.
With land and food, if there are people, it would be like he could have established a small kingdom in Jibei.
In this way, he can be self-sufficient without relying on the court.
Then it will be even more difficult for King Zhao and others to deal with him. This is actually a way for Queen Mother Mu to protect Chen Kaizhi.
Chen Kaizhi did not hesitate. He knew Queen Mother Mu's kindness and hurriedly bowed and said, "I... thank you."
Thank you, even if it's confirmed.
Chen Kai was still trying hard to maintain a calm look, but in fact, he was already excited. With the title of Duke of Protecting the Country, it was not just the rise of his status. It was time for him to show his ambitions! Many things he had planned can be carried out next.
Queen Mother Mu naturally valued Chen Kaizhi. Since she was determined to give Chen Kaizhi more amulets, how could she have the opportunity to object? She immediately waved her sleeves and said with great momentum: "This matter is settled, and you will retreat to the court."
The ministers naturally had different thoughts. Perhaps many people were unwilling to accept it, but they could only salute and bid farewell.
Chen Zhijing was so angry that his orifices were smoked, but he couldn't make a sound at this time, but the speed of walking seemed to be filled with anger.
However, Xia Yan, the Minister of Rites, didn't know whether it was sad or happy. He was really not wise enough. He never thought that things were turned over by Chen Kaizhi. Now he seemed like a joke. He took retreat as a step forward and asked to retire and return home to protect himself.
If the palace is in a position of gratitude, at least you can choose to escape unstoppable. At worst, you can go back to your hometown and enjoy your old age.
If the palace is not accurate, it means that the court is still willing to keep him. This is not a bad thing. As usual, he will be the Minister of Rites.
This is a last resort. His method seems decisive, but if it weren't for his heroic cuts his arm, he would probably be in a more embarrassing situation.
He walked out of the hall slowly, ignoring the others.
Shortly after leaving the hall, someone suddenly said behind him, "Mr. Xia."
Xia Yan looked back and it was Chen Kaizhi.
I saw Chen Kaizhi standing calmly and gracefully not far away, with a pair of clear eyes smiling and looking at him with a faint expression.
Xia Yan's face twitched slightly, and he felt very unhappy. His old eyes narrowed slightly and looked at Chen Kaizhi.
With eyes facing each other, both of them looked cold.
This is also a meeting between enemies, and I was extremely jealous.
Xia Yan naturally felt a lot of resentment.
If it weren't for Chen Kaizhi today, how could he be in this situation?
Of course, he is an old minister, claiming to be extremely qualified and prominent in his official position, and has long been accustomed to the noble attitude of looking at people. He has long forgotten that if he hadn't taken this opportunity to make things difficult for Chen Kaizhi, how could he have fallen into an embarrassing situation?
So he raised his eyebrows, his eyes became gloomy, and he still looked high and looked coldly at Chen Kaizhi.
Chen Kaizhi obviously did not show much displeasure, but instead stepped forward slowly, raised his lips slightly, and spoke lightly.
"Mr. Xia must be thinking at this time that the matter is over?"
"What do you mean?" Xia Yan frowned and asked lightly, but he still maintained that pride.
He did not take Chen Kaizhi seriously, not because Chen Kaizhi's status is not as good as him, but in Xia Yan's heart, this person is just a powerful young man after all, and a young man is a young man.
In this world, Jiang is still old. He has been ups and downs in the court for so many years, and has never seen any storms. Since you are just a temporary mistake, one day he will defeat Chen Kaizhi, so he is completely disdainful.
Chen Kaizhi ignored too much, but smiled at Xia Yan and said, "So I want to congratulate Mr. Xia on his safe arrival."
Xia Yan narrowed his eyes and stared at Chen Kaizhi straight, with disdain in his face so obvious.
"No, I should congratulate you, congratulations to General Chen for being promoted to the Duke of the People."
The two walked side by side, and they were walking slowly like friends who had forgotten their age.
Chen Kaizhi looked into the distance, as if he was looking at the scenery elsewhere, and he was calm and elegant, and he spoke indifferently from his mouth.
"Actually... if Mr. Xia has an objection to me, Chen Kaizhi, even if he criticizes Chen, it would be fine. However, Mr. Xia is the Minister of Rites and is actually a great enemy, but his mind is on the fight. I dare to ask Mr. Xia, what are the benefits of doing this?"
Xia Yan had no expression on his face, but he looked undeniable.
Chen Kaizhi withdrew his gaze and looked directly at Xia Yan with a calm face.
Seeing Xia Yan disagreed, Chen Kaizhi couldn't help but say seriously.
"Then, if I guess correctly, Mr. Xia has the benefits. Your Majesty will grow up sooner or later. Whoever can win the favor of King Zhao will have no limits. Although Mr. Xia is a ritual hall, his heart is still hot, and he still wants to enter the cabinet and become the prime minister, right?"
"This time, if you can solve a problem for King Zhao, Mr. Xia's weight will be completely different. Mr. Xia... is really a good plan."
Xia Yan smiled, with a sarcastic smile in his smile, then raised his eyebrows slightly, and said to Chen Kaizhi without hesitation: "This is the way to be an official."
He seemed to want to explain for himself.
In the face of the great enemy, he set up a trap and even condones envoys from various countries. His purpose was to deal with Chen Kaizhi and the Minister of Rites, but he used such reasons to defend himself.
Chen Kaizhi shook his head in disappointment and said, "This is not the way to be an official, this is shameless."
"What?" Xia Yan looked at Chen Kaizhi angrily.
Chen Kaizhi's words seemed to have suddenly hit Xia Yan's pain point. He suddenly seemed particularly excited and his voice became sharp: "You are too presumptuous! In any case, I am the Minister of Rites. Although you are the Duke of Protecting the Country, you shouldn't say such words to me."
"You are not only shameless, you are also vulgar." Chen Kaizhi suddenly stopped and looked at Xia Yan with a smile.
He was obviously cursing, but his expression seemed to be talking about today's weather.
Xia Yan was even more angry, his face turned red with anger.
In fact, the more a person he is, no matter how despicable he is, the more he lacks, the more he is taboo. Now that Chen Kaizhi suddenly exposes it, he naturally becomes angry and feels his chest blocked, and his face turns red with anger. He points at Chen Kaizhi and retorts with gritted teeth.
"Chen Kaizhi, you are not qualified..."
"Do you think I don't know about your vulgarity?" Chen Kaizhi sighed, and his clear eyes looked at Xia Yan more and more indifferently. "Do you think I've just gone to find Mr. Yan these days? You're wrong. You're planning. Am I planning. Are you also planning? Are you touching my Chen Kaizhi's background, but am I also touching your background?"
Xia Yan was stunned and looked at Chen Kaizhi in confusion. The corners of his mouth trembled slightly, and some bad feelings flashed through him.
"What's the meaning?"
Seeing Xia Yan was puzzled, Chen Kaizhi only found it funny. Xia Yan had calculated everything, but did not count his own affairs. It would be strange if such a person was not defeated. Therefore, Chen Kaizhi raised the corner of his mouth slightly and said sarcastically.
"I'm not afraid of you touching my background, because I, Chen Kaizhi, act brightly, but like you, I am completely unpretentious, but I always think about planning for my future. There must be many ridiculous things in my heart."
Looking at Xia Yan's increasingly ugly face, Chen Kaizhi smiled on his lips. This handsome face looked very good when he smiled, but obviously the mockery in the smile became more and more intense, and it became more dazzling in Xia Yan's eyes.
"Your son is Xia Benji. Xia Benji took a concubine. Do you still remember it? This concubine seems to have some unclear relationship with Mr. Xia."
"Nonsense!" Xia Yan was so angry that he became furious: "Don't slander someone for being innocent out of thin air."
Chen Kaizhi smiled at him and said, "Look, Mr. Xia subconsciously trembled before accuses me. Is this guilty? Don't be anxious, listen to me slowly. This concubine is called Yunniang, right? Does Xiabutang know why I know these things?"
