After the Great Court Meeting, it was rare for the city of God to have a peaceful life. Monk Fang Wai failed to gain favor at the Great Court Meeting, and Emperor Liang did not take advantage of the fall of the Xia family to continue the purge in the City of God. He felt that the rest of his life after the disaster was
All the officials in Shendu breathed a sigh of relief, but at this juncture, no one did anything too extreme.
After entering the palace on the day of the great court meeting, the guardian envoy left the divine capital and rushed to the north. Originally, according to the old practice of the generals leaving the divine capital in the past, His Majesty the Emperor had to bring hundreds of officials to see him off. However, His Majesty the Emperor was not willing to do so.
I like red tape, and this time happened to be just after the imperial meeting, and the guardian envoy is not the kind of person who likes such ostentation, so this matter was eliminated.
But before leaving the capital, the last two people the guardian met were Chen Chao and Song Lian.
At that time, Chen Chao and Song Lian were about to say goodbye at the Zuowei Yamen. The envoy returning from the palace happened to bump into these two people.
Seeing Song Lian, the guard came straight to the point and said, "I can't make it in time for you to get married, but if you dare to treat your wife badly and let me know about it, I will transfer you to the north."
Song Lian grimaced and looked at his immediate boss, "How can it be possible? I can't even hold the wife I found so hard in the palm of my hand."
The guard narrowed his eyes and said, "You'd better be."
Song Lian was speechless.
Song Lian reacted quickly and asked softly: "Sir, if you leave the capital this time, I'm afraid you won't be able to come back for several years, then..."
For a person like the Guardian Envoy, he could naturally guess what this guy was going to say. After a slight pause, he looked at Song Lian mysteriously and asked, "Who do you think it could be?"
Song Lian was startled and looked at the guardian envoy. Then his heart beat faster and he looked at the guardian envoy in disbelief.
The guard smiled and said, "Say it."
Song Lian swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and then said excitedly: "Is he a lower official?"
The guardian smiled and then quickly shook his head.
Song Lian was speechless.
Chen Chao watched with great interest the other side of the guardian envoy. Although the guardian envoys he usually saw were not old-fashioned, they were somewhat distant, but today's guardian envoys were not far apart.
Like an elder next door.
"His Majesty said that the position of Guardian Envoy will be vacant for now. It is really because there is no suitable candidate behind me."
The guard narrowed his eyes, looked at Song Lian, and said: "Practice well and set foot in the realm of forgetfulness as soon as possible. Maybe you will have a chance."
Song Lian said solemnly: "I will definitely practice hard, I hope I can help you one day."
The guard nodded with satisfaction, then looked at Chen Chao and said, "Actually, compared to Song Lian, I think you have a better chance."
Song Lian was still speechless.
Chen Chao was stunned, but quickly said: "I'm afraid I can't bear such a big burden."
The guardian joked: "Why have you become so humble now? You were not like this when you wanted to kill people in the imperial city. What did Song Lian say before?"
Song Lian answered honestly: "What he said at that time was to get out of here!"
The guardian laughed.
Chen Chao felt his face was a little hot, and he said a little embarrassedly: "My lord, you were behind me at that time, otherwise I wouldn't dare to be so presumptuous."
The guarding envoy shook his head and said something meaningful, "The person behind you is not my official."
Chen Chao felt confused, but did not answer the call.
"Now that His Majesty the Emperor and all the officials are here to see him off, you two are going to see me off?"
Chen Chao and Song Lian naturally had no reason to refuse.
So the three of them walked towards the outside of the city. The general was sent to his post. He was already a powerful warrior, so naturally he didn't need any personal followers. It would be nice to have His Majesty the Emperor's will.
Today, these three people happen to represent the three generations of old, middle and young people who are the strongest in the guardian envoy lineage. The guardian envoy is at the front, Song Lian is following closely behind, and Chen Chao is walking at the back.
"After I leave, His Majesty will be in charge of Shendu. Even without His Majesty, the dean will be there. When something big happens, someone will naturally come out to take the lead. But you are in charge of the left guard, so don't be distracted. Fang Wai
A monk will never give up on God."
The guardian looked into the distance and said with some emotion: "I have always wanted to go to the north to kill monsters, but now I have really got my wish. On the contrary, I can't bear to leave this divine capital."
Song Lian scratched his head, not knowing what to say to comfort his immediate boss, so he turned to look at Chen Chao.
Chen Chao understood and said: "My lord, I just went to the north to see the scenery. I think it won't be long before I can come back safe and sound."
The guard smiled and said: "Do you really think that I am afraid of dying in that ghost place in the north? Even if I really die there, it is not a big deal. I die for the human race. Forget it, don't say it is such a big deal. I die for the people of Liang.
And fighting is what us warriors should do."
Song Lian nodded repeatedly.
Chen Chao said nothing.
The three of them soon arrived at the city gate. The guard stopped and looked at the two people behind him, wanting to say something, but in the end he said nothing, and then turned around and walked out of the city gate.
Watching the guardian envoy's back gradually disappear from sight, Song Lian suddenly said with some sadness: "I don't know why, but I always feel that the guardian envoy will never come back."
Chen Chao frowned and asked, "Why didn't you say such nonsense in front of him?"
Song Lian chuckled and said, "I'm not stupid."
Chen Chao: "..."
…
…
There were three people when we left, and there were two when we came back.
Song Lian talked a lot along the way, but he didn't mention anyone else. He was very excited about his upcoming marriage, but as a martial artist, he didn't know much about the etiquette. He even wanted to do it today.
The woman took it.
Chen Chao said helplessly: "Even if you have lived half your life, you are no longer a young man, but how can you be so hasty in getting married? You must have three matchmakers and six appointments, but what about eight sedans? You have to clarify the process, right?
, I won’t come if I’m in a hurry.”
Song Lian nodded matter-of-factly and said with emotion: "I almost missed something big, but luckily I have you."
In fact, in private, these two people no longer treat each other as adults and subordinates, they are more like friends.
Song Lian scratched his head, but before this guy could speak, Chen Chao immediately said: "There are some knowledgeable people in the capital of the gods. When the time comes, you can spend some money and everything will be done. I'm not familiar with this matter, so don't ask.
I."
As the deputy commander of the left guard, in Song Lian's eyes, he was just like a matchmaker.
Song Lian snorted and said, "The date still needs to be decided."
Chen Chao said casually, "The sooner the better. I think you can't wait any longer. Don't worry, I will definitely drink your wedding wine when the time comes."
Song Lian then patted Chen Chao on the shoulder with satisfaction and said with emotion: "You and I are also destined, but I didn't expect that you helped me so much. I don't know how to thank you."
"As long as you don't find me anything dangerous to do, I'll already be burning incense."
Chen Chao stared at a small shop on the side of the long street. It sold some gadgets and had everything.
"You are now a popular person in His Majesty's eyes. How dare I ask you to do something fatal? Please relax during this time and practice well in the capital of God. I will help you handle anything."
Song Lian patted his chest and promised.
Chen Chao was not so optimistic, and just said, "If some more people come and want to kill me, I don't think you can handle it, sir."
Song Lian was speechless. He didn't understand why such a guy lived so cautiously.
However, he quickly forgot about it, and after a few words with Chen Chao, he left the place without stopping. Today, the court meeting happened to have half a day to spare, and he took advantage of this opportunity to go see the woman.
Chen Chao also wanted this guy to leave quickly, so he didn't hold anything back.
After Song Lian left, Chen Chao came to the shop selling small things and looked at the various gadgets on display.
"Sir, what do you want?"
The stall owner who set up the stall was extremely enthusiastic. Looking at Chen Chao's behavior, one knew that he was an owner who was not short of money.
Chen Chao stared at a small doll over there, picked it up and asked, "How many?"
The stall owner chuckled and said, "Young master, you really have a good eye. This is a serious Suzhou embroidery craft. Just to make it, it takes two masters to work for half a month. It's not expensive. You can take fifty Daliang Tongbao!"
Chen Chao was startled and asked in confusion: "So expensive?"
The stall owner smiled and said: "No matter where, it's not expensive."
Chen Chao shook his head and said, "Cheaper."
The stall owner frowned, wondering if he had misunderstood. How could a kid from such a rich family know how to bargain?
"The forty-five pieces cannot be lowered any lower!"
The stall owner's eyes were always on Chen Chao, observing Chen Chao.
Chen Chao shook his head, "It would be cheaper."
"God, it can't be any cheaper."
Chen Chao glanced at the stall owner, then rolled up his sleeves and began to discuss the price with the stall owner.
If someone who knew the identity of the Chen Dynasty saw this, their jaws would probably drop in shock. A deputy commander of the left guard of the Daliang Dynasty was negotiating the price of several Daliang Tongbao.

At nightfall, Xie Nandu came back from the academy library, where he had been reading all day. Now at night, he happened to be returning with a lantern. The maid Liu Ye was waiting for her at the door, and took Xie Nandu's lantern, and then started talking about it.
What I saw during the day: "Miss, I heard that guy had another fight in the imperial city and killed someone, a woman!"
Xie Nandu raised his eyebrows and motioned for her to continue talking.
So Liu Ye told all the news he heard during the day, and Xie Nandu said: "I didn't bring a knife, but I can bring it with me now."
Liu Ye didn't understand what it meant and was about to close the courtyard door.
A panting young man happened to have one hand on the courtyard door. After seeing Xie Nandu, he couldn't wait to take out the things in his arms.
"I bought it for you, does it look good?"
Xie Nandu looked at the little doll in his hand, raised his eyebrows and said, "Tiger?"
What Chen Chao was holding happened to be a cute little tiger.
Chen Chao retorted: "It's a little tiger!"
Xie Nandu groaned and said lightly: "You mean I am a tigress?"
Chen Chao was startled, thinking, what the hell is this?
Xie Nandu didn't say much. He took the little tiger and said, "I am really a tiger."
