Chapter 3: Letting go(2/2)
The old scholar stood there and asked Chen Ping'an softly, "Can you drink it?" Chen Ping'an smiled and said that he was just dealing with them, it doesn't matter whether he could drink it or not.
He burst into laughter. Except for Ning Yao's table, everyone was dissatisfied. Even Ning Ji was eager to try and planned to drink with his husband, but he was worried that this move was inappropriate, but he saw that Senior Brother Cao and Senior Brother Zhao had already stood up with the cup and were about to fight with him.
Pei Qian stood up with a smile. She didn't use a wine glass, but she poured a bowl of wine and picked up a pot of wine. Cao Qinglang saw that the opportunity was not good, so he immediately sat back to his original position and avoided the edge. Zhao Shuxia deliberately turned around and chatted with Deng Jianping beside him. For a moment, only Ning Ji was still standing stupidly, looking at the gentleman, waiting to drink.
What night is the bright moon and the sky’s heart.
Yun Zhongjun asked about swords and people in the aisle, grievances and fists, who did you ask about wine?
———
The capital is the most powerful and wealthy official of the Dali Dynasty. Here, the most powerful officials and the richest people are here to pursue more power and wealth, and achieve their ambitions or ambitions. The rise and fall of power and the continuous flow of wealth are all day and night. The capital tonight is particularly obvious, and people with discerning eyes know that tomorrow after tonight, the officialdom of the Dali Dynasty will usher in a thrilling purge. Many officials whose butts seem to be glued to a chair in the government office, and their families, will lose their former glory. At the same time, many people who are already discouraged will only wait for the dawn, after the dawn meeting and the dawn meeting, they will also win the seats, reputation and power that they never dared to dream of in their daytime dreams.
The Yuan family in Yichixiang, the study of Yuan Chong, the head of the Shangzhu Kingdom surnamed who had been in charge of the Censorate for many years, ignored the peers of the family who were anxious like ants on a hot pan. The person involved, Yuan Chong only called Yuan Zuo, Xu Mi and his brother and sister, and invited a family "simultaneous generation" who had not seen for many years, the sword immortal Yuan Huajing.
The Wei family, not too far from the Yuan family's mansion, had been killed by sticks. The women were kneeling outside the ancestral hall, and they cried in a mess.
The Minister Dong Hu, sitting in a carriage in the darkness of night, entered the residence of Zhao's family in Tianshui through the side door, and met Zhao Duanjin, the Minister of Rites. During the day, officials from the Ministry of Rites and Honglu Temple had all been involved in the matter of Laoyinghu being blocked.
Not long ago, Changsun Mao, the "Heavenly Official" who was promoted from Honglu Temple to Tongzhengsi and was then transferred to the Minister of Personnel, left behind to thank the guests.
But in fact, the old man secretly called Guan Yiran, the doctor of the Ministry of Revenue Qing Lishu. The one who thanked the guests was his colleagues and outsiders. Guan Yiran was the younger generation who had grown up with his own eyes and had high hopes. What's more, the Dali officialdom, or the entire Baopingzhou, who don't know who, the Ministry of Personnel of the Dali Dynasty, belonged to the Guan family? Mr. Guan was so powerful, but the Dali Song clan had three emperors in succession, and they all agreed with the former national teacher Cui Feng.
The old man asked, "Yiran, do you think he is a good person?"
Guan Yiran smiled and said, "What do you mean by this?"
Changsun Mao then asked: "Can you be a good official who is both honest and practical, can leave a name in history, especially to make the people recognize it?"
Guan Yiran said: "Of course there is confidence. What is the result? I will look at it decades later. It is not just a matter of counting after I say it."
Changsun Mao was silent for a moment and said, "Tomorrow's small court meeting, I will and His Majesty and the National Master propose that you be transferred to the Ministry of Personnel."
Guan Yiran thought for a while and asked, "As soon ascend to heaven, can he become the Minister of the Republic of China?"
Changsun Mao smiled and scolded: "Boy! Even if you give a right minister, you may not be able to pass it. You will return it to the Secretary of the House! Why don't I take the official hat over and let you wear it to the Secretary of the House?"
It is quite difficult to directly promote to the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel. In fact, it is precisely the surname "Guan" that made Guan Yiran's promotion speed far inferior to the other two Dadu governors. There is an inside story that ordinary officials cannot understand. It is precisely that Mr. Guan had angered with the "top" back then, which made Guan Yiran deliberately fight for more... For more than ten years, the court also looked at the situation and felt it was OK. If it was promoted again, it would not work. Guan Yiran would be a middle-level official in Dali for the rest of his life. In addition, within more than ten years, Guan Yiran could be transferred to various ministries and experience, but he could not be placed in the Guan family's Ministry of Personnel. Otherwise, their many marriage families and disciples of Guan family would try their best to entrust Guan Yiran to continue to be promoted to help Guan Yiran solve all problems outside the Ministry of Personnel.
Changsun Mao also had his own plan. Assuming that Guan Yiran was promoted to Minister of Personnel, this matter would not work, he proposed that Guan Yiran leave Beijing and go to a local state to become a governor. The elderly have thought about any state, poor and remote, and the number of yellow household registrations is pitifully small, but the governor of a state is still a governor with an official position there, so Guan Yiran can enter the ranks of a country's border officials.
Guan Yiran smiled and said, "Being an official in the Ministry of Personnel is not an official, but a peacemaker who is both restricted and can be promoted while lying down. Grandpa Changsun, I'll go to Juzhou, the poorest and the youngest, and the bitter and cold land on the border."
Changsun Mao was both relieved and distressed, "Juzhou, that's too poor and white. Since ancient times, the people there have been tough customs, miasma, and the politics and religion have never been civilized..."
Guan Yiran reached out and brushed his hand over his head, and smiled and said, "But the official hat is as big as all the governors."
"Then do it like this. If you can't become a governor, don't come to me to cry and make trouble."
The old man nodded, remained silent for a moment, sighed: "When I was young, I could always see a master Qingtian who appeared like a cloud of mist. He gave those false and wrong cases to the point of being wronged, or a new top scholar who studied hard and had no experience in the officialdom and had no official experience. After being appreciated by the emperor, he could soon manage a place clearly and make everyone live and work in peace and contentment."
Guan Yiran smiled and said, "The novel is like the legend, how can we spectators feel that they are depressed and uneasy? It is first and second. Life is no longer easy, so why bother to find unhappiness in the book?"
Changsun Mao narrowed his eyes and looked at Guan Yiran, "The book is in the book, the world is in the world, and the pages are not turned. It depends entirely on personal preferences, but life is always there every day. So now, the young Master Chen is taking charge of the big ship Dali, do you think it is reasonable or appropriate?"
Guan Yiran smiled and said, "It is both reasonable and reasonable, and it ranks first in terms of emotion and reason."
The old man nodded, "It's good, it's good."
In the middle of the night, the Yichi Lane and streets outside the house would be noisy from time to time.
Yan Yongfeng, the Minister of Honglu Temple, is a short and sturdy head of the Zizhao Yan family, and is gnawing the iced watermelon with his brother Yan Jiaoran, with his leisurely intention.
There was also a lot of noise on Chier Street. In addition to the ordinary soldiers, horses, cavalrymen led by Hong Ji himself, there were also Yan Jiaoran who screened and promoted the monks in the army to be responsible for arresting people.
Most of the people who were taken out of the high-gate mansions were young and young and middle-aged people who were well-known on the ground of Dali Capital. Even so in the capital, they would only have more status when they were in the capital.
As for the people who were called home by the family from all over the capital at the same time, whether they were thrown directly to the Ministry of Justice for jail, or taken to Dali Temple to convict, or sent to the Censorate for trial, it depends on how much money they made in the digging of Dadu. Occasionally, there were the elderly and old Beijing officials who held real power and shouted loudly, saying the terms of the Dali Dynasty's laws and regulations, and whether they knew who he was.
Not only the streets and alleys where the powerful men of the Dali Dynasty were crowded, but also several yards were surrounded by soldiers, horses, cavalry and monks, and the army were joined by the monks, especially the lights were brightly lit.
The Minister of Revenue, known as the Minister of Revenue, Mu Yan and Mu, did not care about Chi Lane or Chier Street. He was born in an aristocratic family of ordinary families in the local area.
Mu Yan, who was nearly fifty years old, was a rare official who was extremely smart and had a sense of money and account numbers. Therefore, he was promoted from Mu Yan, the former left minister of the Ministry of Justice, to the Minister of Revenue, to replace Ma Yuan, and became a national and national minister.
Ma Yuan, the Minister of Justice, was wearing an official uniform tonight and visited the door in person. Looking at the pale and colorless Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, and Mu Yan, who was trembling with his children, Ma Yuan said calmly: "It is better for me to take you away personally than to be tied up by a soldier."
On the banks of the Changpu River, a small restaurant was not big or small. A fat man led a timid but curious girl to visit the main hall of his restaurant, the private room and the kitchen. Beside them, Cao Gengxin, who was hanging purple wine gourds on his waist, persuaded Miss Chen Xi to do something here. If Manager Wei dared to be so arrogant and was frivolous, he would throw Fat Wei to the prison of the Ministry of Justice and lose weight by 100 kilograms of fat... Fat Wei was so anxious that he stomped his feet. The floor of the corridor was trembling and said that he was a serious person. Miss Chen Xi, don't listen to Cao's servant... Brother Cao said nonsense...
The girl from the countryside squinted her eyes and smiled, but she wanted to stop talking, but she couldn't help but still asked Cao Gengxin curiously, "Brother Cao, are you the official who is as big as the magistrate of County Han?" Cao Gengxin sighed, proud, and patted the wine gourd and said, "Miss, you have a little bit of knowledge." The official hat on my head is so big. When the sesame magistrate Han, he had to tie his tongue when he saw me, he had to speak. I just glared and snorted, they would feel panicked, so Miss Chen Xi, please don't worry. Since we have recognized our righteous brothers and sisters, we are very confident when we go out to buy rouge and water powder, we are very confident and bargained with the shopkeepers and vendors...
The girl was confused, when did she recognize her righteous brother and sister...
———
On Jiling Peak's mountain road to Jise Peak's Ancestor Hall, they walked together in groups of three or three. The clouds and mist were shrouded in a faint smell of alcohol.
The old scholar has returned to the Middle Earth Confucian Temple, and the affairs are heavy, because the two worlds will really fight head-on. According to the old scholar, not only did the Assassin already have the real fire, but the three leaders of the Confucian Temple have clearly stated that except for Fuyao, Tongye and Jinjia Continent, the other continents will continue to mobilize troops to the wilderness, ferries, equipment and other combat preparations. They will be mentioned to the maximum extent within half a year. Many immortal palaces and temples must contribute people and money and strength, without exception.
Wen Zaixi is not even a member of the genealogy of Luopo Mountain. He wanted to say goodbye to go down the mountain before, but was persuaded by Chen Ping'an and said together.
Zhong No. 1, holding a toothpick in his mouth, learned that he could participate in the discussions of the Ancestors' Hall and stopped hiccups.
Wei Bo suggested that he should be careful. At least half a year later, Luopo Mountain would open the mountain protection formation with both offense and defense.
Qi Tingji and Mi Yu were going to the wild world together to go to Guixu Ferry where Tianshi Zhao Tianlai and Fire Dragon were located.
Guo Du has handed over the map of the wild hinterland to Wen Sheng.
Chen Ping'an asked Xie Gou to call the old deaf child over and participate in the discussions of the ancestors' hall. The old deaf child was a little reluctant. The mountain master just gave orders. He just did this as a regular worshiper, but he couldn't interfere in the discussions.
After entering the Zushi Hall, tent incense one by one, and each took their seats. Chen Ping'an said straight to the point: "In the next hundred years, there will be more new ascensions and the fourteen realms, and the mountain will only be more chaotic. The grudges that have accumulated for many years will most likely erupt in a short period of time. For those who practice Taoism, this century will benefit from the divine rain falling on the earth, which will be a great year that has not been seen in ten thousand years. This is the case for those who practice Taoism to cultivate immortality, and the pure martial artists at the foot of the mountain will be as follows. There are all kinds of strange things, and by chance, they will only become more and more dazzling. The opportunities and gifts from the Dao Mountain will definitely be more and more. So next, those who should be retreated quickly, those who should be recuperated should be recuperated well, and those who should be broken quickly will break through the realm quickly. The opportunity must not be missed and will not come again."
"In addition to improving one's own Taoist power, accumulation and preaching, it will be the top priority. All the needs of the Ancestral Hall and all your disciples to practice Taoism, martial arts, heavenly treasures, gods and gods, spiritual weapons, and elixirs. Just talk to Wei Wenlong and our great accountant, and give them all or not. If you don't have it in the mountains, buy and borrow them. This is the case with the Luopo Mountain. Of course, the Dragon Elephant Sword Sect and the Qingping Sword Sect also follow this principle."
"Jiang Shangzhen was promoted to deputy mountain master, Xie Gou was appointed as chief entrusted, Gan Tang was appointed as second entrusted, Xiao Mo was still a general entrusted, after all, Xiao Mo would go to seclusion and practice in seclusion, which took a lot of time."
"Jiang Shangzhen will go to Shujianhu to take over the Zhenjing Sect. Does the name of the lower sect need to be changed? Is it changed directly to 'Shujianhu' as Cui Dongshan suggested? I will not discuss it tonight. Jiang Shangzhen only needs to make a decision and tell him about it at that time. In addition, do the new lower sect need to second the upper 5th realm, Jiang and Cui to discuss it privately with Qingping Sword Sect?"
"As for myself, I will definitely run two times in the near future. On one hand, I will go to the capital city to become the National Master of Dali, and on the other hand, I will rush back to the Fuyaolu Taoist Temple at night. Taking advantage of the opportunity to break and then stand up, I will watch the Taoist Taoist at the 'Taoist Ding'."
"Xiaomo and Xie Gou, before you go into seclusion, be sure to have a good chat with Gan Tang to see if you can help solve the conflict between the two flying swords."
The top combat power that can stay in the mountains for a long time seems to be the only one who is the old deaf child, who is ascending to the realm.
Xie Gou wrapped his arms around his chest and smiled and said, "I am a Nascent Soul Realm, and I dared to guide an old god in the Ascension Realm. I was a little nervous, just as afraid of Gan... Oh, now I should be called Gan Cixi. I was unhappy with any words. The murderous intention and hostility arose together, and I slapped my dog's head off."
The old deaf child said seriously: "It is like reincarnation to say that being a disciple at the foot of the mountain is like reincarnation. The kindness of preaching on the mountain is recreated. Not to mention the status of master and apprentice, it doesn't matter if I recognize my parents tonight with Chief Xie and Mr. Xiaomo."
Xiaomo rubbed his eyebrows. Gan Tang's face and words are really worthy of admiration for three days after leaving.
Xie Gou was satisfied. The old deaf child who snatched Xiao Mo's seat did not hold her tail up. She nodded and gave her a thumbs up, "What the honest man said is the truth."
Chen Ping'an asked, "Yuan Huang has already gone up the mountain and wants to learn boxing with me. He is very sincere. This young man has a high talent in martial arts practice and a good character. But I decided before that Zhao Shuxia is a closed disciple of the martial arts. How to solve it?"
Zhao Shuxia said, "Master, it's simple. Just let Yuan Huang be my senior brother. The junior brother takes the advantage of the situation. Don't snatch anyone from me."
Pei Qian smiled and said, "It's a good thing for multiple junior brothers."
Ning Ji didn't drink much tonight, but he was really average in alcohol. He was a little drunk at this moment. The elder sister smiled and came over to toast them with a bowl. He immediately changed his mind and said that he, the gentleman and the elder sister were in the same group... Ning Ji naturally had no objection, with multiple senior brothers and more care.
"Then let's just say that."
Chen Ping'an continued: "Liaopo Mountain has always been kind to others, and there are not many enemies, only a few. Zhengyang Mountain does not dare to do anything for the time being. The Dashou Dynasty in the Central Earth Shenzhou must first take the accountability of a deputy leader of the Confucian Temple. Bai Yujing and I have personal grudges, both Yu Dou and Jiang Zhaomo. At that time, we will visit Qingming for the second time. It is nothing more than seeing the level of Taoism, swordsmanship, fists and feet, and we will determine the victory or defeat, and determine life and death. Only Pang Ding of Lingbao City has both personal grudges and public grudges. It is simple, and one must die."
"It's okay if Old Pirate Pang is willing to kowtow and admit his mistake. As long as he kowtows, I will accept his apology."
"Qingming Wuzhou was originally one of the imaginary enemies I fear the most. The two ancient divine objects of Killing and Execution can make her, the old fourteenth, add more, but it is similar to what I expected. The senior of Wuzhou is extremely loyal and courageous. After this battle, we will not be friends, at least we are definitely not enemies."
"The future alliance of the dragon in the Great Du of Tongyezhou is very important. In addition to Qingping Sword Sect, you must be careful for a long time and ensure that you keep your tail. It is estimated that if Longxiang Sword Sect will send several sword cultivators to go there to help keep an eye on them to prevent accidents."
Chen Ping'an hesitated for a moment, chose to "lead the secrets of heaven" and said actively: "The Taoist Master Xianwei who guarded our Luopo Mountain was actually the turn of the first Taoist priest in the ancient world. Now the two have separated, the former is still the same, but the latter has dispersed all the power of Tao. If he had not taken action before and dispersed the vortex, I believe that the world would soon usher in a veritable Dharma-Ending Age."
"The consequences are unimaginable. For example, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth is the foundation of all magical powers. When a certain practitioner leaves the temple, whether it is a worldly experience or visits friends to save people, or meets with peers, the two practitioners must consider each other as enemies, and at least they will be extremely suspicious. What is the use of my heart, and what is his heart? The heart that harms others should not be without? Once the mind that cultivates the master is like this, you can imagine what the scene on earth will be like."
"As for whether there is anything left on Taoist Priest Xianwei, I am not sure, and I will not explore it. What happened before today, and it will be the same after tonight."
Speaking of this, Chen Ping'an glanced at the boy in green who pretended to listen, but was actually empty. Chen Lingjun's mind was turning sharply at this moment, thinking about whether he had any rude words. The answer was...it was so vast!
Chen Ping'an smiled and said, "Old Ancestor Jingqing? He is drunk, so I'm here to let the wine go."
Chen Lingjun looked confused. Why did the mountain master call him that? "Ah?"
Chen Ping'an smiled angrily and said, "Fortunately, you will go down the mountain to travel tomorrow."
Chen Lingjun said guiltily: "Master, in fact, I usually speak and do things with confidence, and my mind is full of wisdom."
Chen Ping'an smiled and said, "A wise man makes mistakes every time, right?"
Chen Lingjun's eyes lit up and he clapped his hands and said, "Yes, it's amazing, I've hit the mountain master."
Zhu Su's sword cultivator looked at this young man in blue with admiration.
