Following Xie Nandu into the small courtyard, Chen Chao suddenly took the initiative and asked, "Is this time that we can take a look at all the young people in the world who are truly geniuses in the north?"
Although the Wanliu Hui was rumored to be a grand event among young people all over the world, in fact, after so many years, its influence has long been not as good as it was back then. Otherwise, the two Taoist sects who were so obsessed with it at the beginning would not have come to God.
As for sword cultivators in the capital, there is not a single one. The three schools of Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism are very good at it. Only Xie Nandu of the academy showed up in the literary examination, but the other two schools did not send their most talented disciples.
Xie Nandu frowned, but still did not speak immediately. Instead, he came to sit under the eaves and then slowly said, "Doumen Duanbi, you have seen both of them, who is more difficult to deal with?"
Chen Chao did not hesitate, "Of course it's Yun Jianyue. In any case, men have to take advantage in practice."
Xie Nandu nodded and did not refute this. He just said softly, "Luming Temple is going to send someone here this time. I just don't know if there have been many young geniuses in the temple in recent years. They say that the Sword Sect has been keeping a low profile in recent years."
, but in my opinion, Luming Temple is even worse."
"Fortunately, they have a good relationship with us, Daliang. When we meet, we might be able to help each other, and you can also take a good look at those monks."
Xie Nandu said softly, "As for Daomen, the Great Master of Wantian Palace from the Taiping Dao lineage came to Shendu a few days ago and had some words with Mr. In fact, they also reached some kind of agreement. When you meet them, you don't need to be too wary.
Besides, with Zhu Xia’s connections, they might be able to take action.”
"Didn't you meet that sword cultivator from the Sword Sect, and he is a close friend?"
Speaking of this, Xie Nandu suddenly seemed to realize it in hindsight and said, "Speaking of it, it seems that although you are notorious outside the country, you do have some friends, and they are all great people."
Chen Chao frowned and looked at Xie Nandu seriously, "I didn't do anything in the first place. It's the most incomprehensible thing that these people hate me for no reason."
Xie Nandu smiled and continued, "You have to meet the Qi Refiners lineage and go around. You have offended the Qi Refiners from both the north and the south. They will not show mercy when they meet you. Although there is no
I heard that there are some very outstanding young Qi practitioners, but they have many methods and are even more difficult to deal with than those Taoist monks to some extent, so you have to be more careful."
"Aren't you going to the North with me? Why are you talking now, as if you are afraid that I will die there?"
Chen Chao glanced at Xie Nandu with some suspicion and asked curiously, "Have you changed your mind?"
Xie Nandu shook his head, "My level is not enough. When I get to the north, it's more
When you inspect the terrain there, you won’t take risks easily, but you are different. You have high expectations, and you have to do some things you don’t want to do, which is very troublesome.”
Chen Chao frowned and said nothing.
Xie Nandu doesn't need to tell him about this kind of thing. After all, as the leader of the younger generation in Daliang, he naturally has to do a lot.
"The person who took the initiative to speak out at the court meeting was named Xu Changhu. He was a scholar who joined the officialdom before His Majesty ascended the throne. He was not from the academy, but from the Xu family in Huainan. He is now the Minister of Household Affairs. There was hope that he could take a step forward.
After the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue retired, he managed the money bag of our Liang Dynasty, but now it is impossible."
Xie Nandu only spoke half of what he said, naturally he was thinking of testing the Chen Dynasty.
Chen Chao smiled and said, "I would rather refute our Majesty's face by cutting off his official career. Someone must have promised him something better, but I think that even if what happened that day hadn't happened, he wouldn't have been able to control our leader's money."
Bag, Your Majesty uses half of the annual treasury revenue to support the northern border troops. This matter has always been criticized by the DPRK and China. Although no one dared to blatantly oppose it after being suppressed before, why not arrange such a key position?
A confidant?"
Xie Nandu said softly, "Now this old minister of the Ministry of Finance is also from the academy. He comes from a poor family. His family even has a nephew who is serving in the army in the northern border. He is not a corrupt scholar. In recent years, he has agreed with your majesty on matters regarding the northern border. But your majesty may
He is aging very slowly, but this old minister cannot last more than a few years, and then His Majesty will have to look for a new candidate."
Chen Chao joked, "I think it's better to let you be the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue. In that position, you can keep the money bag open and your Majesty can take it as you please."
Xie Nandu said calmly, "It's not impossible. If I become an official, I might be able to sit in that position in the future."
Chen Chao frowned and said, "Isn't she the first female prime minister in the Liang Dynasty?"
"Don't be poor."
Xie Nandu said calmly, "The situation in the court is far more complicated than you think. The books I have read these days are not only military books. Now I know a lot about the context of the court. His Majesty, the emperor, does not do it easily. On the one hand, he is not willing to let anything go.
The civil servants in the DPRK restricted their arrangements in the north and Fangwai's policies. On the one hand, they had to rely on them to govern the world. They had uprooted the entire Xia clan before, not only to express their attitude to Fangwai, but more importantly, to kill them.
Showing the chicken to the monkey, the emperor's inner thoughts, if you are willing to look, you will naturally be able to see something, but you seem to have no idea about these now.
interested."
Chen Chao raised his head and said softly, "I don't want to be an emperor, so why should I care about this?"
Xie Nandu glanced at him and suddenly asked, "If I want to be the empress, can you help me?"
Chen Chao glanced around cautiously, and after making sure that no one was around, he lowered his voice and said, "Are you really planning to usurp the throne?"
"I'm kidding you, your courage seems to be getting weaker and weaker. Wasn't it lawless in Tianqing County before?"
Xie Nandu raised his eyebrows and looked at Chen Chao.
Chen Chao sighed and said, "There was nothing at that time. It was just one life. If it was gone, it would be gone. What was there?"
Xie Nandu smiled and did not continue. He just changed the subject and said, "His Majesty intends to increase your prestige in the court. It seems that he is training you as the next guardian envoy. When you sit in that position, no matter what
No matter which prince comes to the throne, he will not dare to touch you. Now I can be sure that His Majesty has no intention of killing you, but your identity is still troublesome. If one day it is exposed, it will be a big trouble."
Chen Chao said with rare melancholy, "Sometimes I worry about other things."
Xie Nandu saw through Chen Chao's thoughts at a glance and said, "Are you worried that the former prince will be killed by your majesty?"
Chen Chao glanced at Xie Nandu in surprise, "It seems like I can't hide anything from you."
Xie Nandu said, "I don't know."
This is naturally an answer to Chen Chao's concerns.
Xie Nandu shook his head and said, "I don't think His Majesty is such a person."
Chen Chao said softly, "I think so too."
It is difficult for anyone to say clearly what kind of person Emperor Liang is, but the things he did alone are enough to prove that he is a rare hero in the world, and he is definitely not the kind of person who likes to use such means.
Otherwise, he would not have such courage to do these things.
It's just that some things don't seem to be explained clearly by reason, let alone seen with ordinary eyes. After all, there are too many things in this world, which are really too unexpected.
Xie Nandu was not very troubled, but said calmly, "I think it's better to ask a question for peace of mind."
Chen Chao nodded, but then said, "I always feel it's not the right time."
Xie Nandu didn't say anything, but stretched out his hand and lightly tapped his forehead.
Such playful actions are rare for Xie Nandu.
Chen Chao stared at the girl, a little confused. When he came back from this trip, the woman in front of him was not only bigger.
A lot, and it has gained so much popularity.
"Then when is the time?"
Xie Nandu looked at him.
Chen Chao's face was a little red, and he felt that the woman in front of him was not asking about the previous matter.
"You are hesitant, you don't look like a man."
Xie Nandu shook his head.
Chen Chao frowned and said, "Have you never seen me kill someone?"
It seems like eight poles cannot fight together.
Xie Nandu murmured softly, "How could I fall in love with someone like you."
Chen Chao asked, "Why do you say these suddenly?"
Xie Nandu said nothing, so the two rarely looked at each other.
After just a moment, Chen Chao turned his head unnaturally.
But at this moment, Xie Nandu suddenly stood up, raised his head, and stood on tiptoes.
Chen Chao only felt that his lips touched something. It was ice cold, but also very soft at the same time.
This is……
In an instant, Chen Chao's breathing became rapid and his heartbeat accelerated.
He smelled a body fragrance that was unique to women. It was an inexplicable smell that was hard to describe. If it had to be described, it would probably be a bit like pear blossoms.
His hands wanted to reach out to hug the woman, but they stopped halfway in the air, at a loss.
Chen Chao has experienced many lives and deaths over the years, and he can be said to have an extremely strong heart. However, this is indeed the first time in his life. It is reasonable for him to be in chaos for a while.
It seems that time has stood still at this moment, and it also seems that time flies so fast that it can't be accelerated anymore.
I don’t know how long it took, it could be a moment, or it could be thousands of years.
The coolness on her lips dissipated, and the woman sat down again, complaining a little and said, "You're too tall."
After a long time, Chen Chao finally came back to his senses. His face was a little hot. He looked at the woman in front of him and said softly, "You smell good."
Xie Nandu's face was slightly red, as if two peach blossoms had climbed onto his cheeks again.
She didn't speak.
There is no woman in the world who would take the initiative to do something like this, but the man in front of her happened to be a dull-headed man, and she happened to be not an ordinary woman.
So it doesn't matter.
Chen Chao leaned down, looked at the woman in front of him, smiled and said, "You don't have to get up this time."
——
You kissed me and you still didn’t give me a ticket?
