At dawn, Jin Boyan quietly returned to his home in the inner city. With the strength and status of the Jin family, he was originally not qualified to live here, but his family only occupied a small courtyard, which belongs to the Imperial Formation Hall, so he could live here.
"Master." A concubine said while helping him change his clothes: "There are several old servants in the family who are old. I have given them money to return to their hometown to support them."
She said the names of several people. Jin Boyan recalled that they were all old people at home, but they were all insignificant positions and were normal personnel changes.
He nodded: "Okay. If you are not equipped with enough staff, you guys will discuss and recruit some more people. I'll go to the palace."
"yes."
Jin Boyan changed into an official robe, entered the palace through the side door, and waited in a side hall. After the emperor gave him a morning court, he ordered someone to call him over.
The plan to improve the city moat formation is extremely important, and it is impossible for the emperor to ignore it.
Jin Boyan entered the palace to pay a visit, and then reported the stage results to the emperor, and then said: "In the future, those sixth and seventh-level formation masters will not be able to help for the time being. The entire formation will be integrated and improved, and the old man Leaning Stone will be the main one, assisted by Lao Chen and Yao Qingshui."
"But these people cannot be dismissed. The final result of the old man Leshi must be a ninth-level city-sharing formation. It needs to be simplified and turned into an eighth-level formation for some military important cities, and then simplified into a seventh-level formation for the state prefecture; the sixth-level formation for the county city, and the fifth-level formation for the county city."
The emperor nodded: "Your dear, please deal with these things. I have two things to come to you. First, can Yao Qingshui and his group of people find ways to stay in the Imperial Formation Hall as much as possible?"
Although Jin Boyan was reluctant, he knew that he could never object at this time. Although the emperor used a tone of discussion, it would be too naive to think that the lord of a country would really discuss such things with you.
Jin Boyan immediately nodded and said sincerely: "The old minister must do his best to keep these great talents in the country."
The emperor nodded with relief: "Okay. Then let's talk about the second thing. This formation is crucial. You must keep a close eye on me and never let someone do something in it!"
Jin Boyan knelt down and said, "Old minister obeys the order!"
"Okay, you go down."
Jin Boyan kowtowed and stepped down, but he felt a little confused. The formation troops summoned this time were all innocent people and had been famous in the Taiyan Dynasty for a long time. Why did Your Majesty suddenly become more suspicious?
He thought about it, went back to the Imperial Formation Hall, called a few confidants, and continued to give orders like this and this. The people immediately nodded and went to do it separately.
The emperor sent Jin Boyan away, and after returning to the Long Case, he handed over a memorial from Tailong Guard to the old eunuch around him: "Files."
What Jin Boyan didn't know was that the problem lies with him. He asked his subordinates to investigate "Han Youxue" and found many suspicious points. Then he casually threw the case to Tailong Guard. However, he did not expect that when Tailong Guard investigated, he found many suspicious points. In addition to the recent information from the outside, it seemed that someone was secretly infiltrating the Taiyan Dynasty!
The emperor then became suspicious and called Jin Boyan to explain.
In addition to Jin Boyan, the emperor would meet seven or eight ministers today, including important officials in the cabinet and some officials from confidential departments. After all, it was already noon. He ordered: "Issuing an order to prepare lunch in the imperial kitchen. Are those two little guys waiting anxious? But they will have dinner with me."
"Abide by the order." The old eunuch agreed to go out and pass the order.
Soon, everything was ready, and the emperor set out to set off, and two young men were kneeling to greet each other.
The emperor waved his hands happily: "This is a private occasion, there is no need to be so polite, just get up." The two of them got up, one of them was so excited that their faces were red, while the other one looked pale, as if they were reluctant.
This person Chen Zhining knows, Qin Fenghe, a poor son.
"You are all pillars of the court. I and the royal family will rely on you in the future, so try to relax. Today is just a family dinner." The emperor said with a smile. Qin Fenghe was in a daze, while the other person, Yu Guanghe, was very excited: "Don't worry, your Majesty, but you have everything to do! It is the boy's supreme honor to be able to fall in love with the boy..."
...
The housekeeper came in with a gift list and said shockedly: "Young Master, this is the fourth generous gift from Lu Kuanghua. Look..."
Chen Zhining glanced at it and threw it aside with some boredom: "Send it back intact."
The butler opened his mouth, but nodded and responded: "Yes."
This housekeeper was temporarily hired by the Chen family in the capital, and he couldn't find any good candidates in his urgent situation. This housekeeper had only been a sixth-rank official in the capital before. He was a high-rank official in the capital, but he could only be regarded as a "small official" in the capital.
He first entered the Chen Mansion for a considerable commission, but he didn't expect to gradually realize that the Chen family was amazing!
Many big names he could only look up to before had to pay the Chen family a break. Just like this Lu Kuanghua, the Lu family is also famous in the capital. An invitation from the Beijing Society is not so easy to get even for an old family.
After hearing that the young master had a big fuss at the Essence Conference, he was so scared that he trembled. However, he didn't expect that the Chen family would not only have nothing to do, but Lu Kuanghua took the initiative to visit him, but no one in the Chen family saw him.
Chen Yunpeng and his wife knew that this was their son's business and they would not make decisions for their son.
Chen Zhining happened to be in seclusion those days.
Lu Kuanghua came three times and was turned away, but he did not give up and sent heavy gifts again and again. This time, according to the contents on the gift list, it was worth up to 50,000 third-level spiritual jade!
But Chen Zhining still refused. Chen Zhining was short of money. If he really planned to reconcile with Lu Kuanghua, he would certainly accept the generous gift with a smile, but he had no plans at all, so he would naturally return it.
And these days, he has been waiting a little anxious, but he is in a bad mood and loses patience.
There has been no news in the palace for a long time, and Mr. He never asked him to enter the palace again.
When Chen Zhining came back from the Imperial Academy that day, he felt that he could not wait like this anymore. He said to Prince Shen carefully on the way: "Your Highness, can you report to the Empress? The Taoist formation on my body is inappropriate after the last use..."
Prince Shen was not surprised.
He also has a Taoist formation on his body, and it was only after Mr. He adjusted it many times before he gradually reached the best state.
He tried to reassure Chen Zhining: "This kind of tailor-made thing will definitely not fit perfectly with you from the beginning. You don't have to worry. With Mr. He, you will definitely help you modify it to the best state."
Then, he smiled slightly and said, "You have tried it too. How magical this kind of treasure is!"
Chen Zhining smiled and said, "Yes, it's so powerful."
"Don't worry." Prince Shen patted him: "I will tell my mother about this when I go back."
...
Prince Shen was in the middle and passed the message, but the next day Chen Zhining finally received an invitation from the palace.
However, this time, the queen maid was still receiving him. The queen only showed up and said a few words to him, encouraged her and then found an excuse to leave.
Chen Zhining was secretly surprised. Did Mr. He arouse the suspicion of the royal family?
He gradually approached Mr. He's yard. This time, he could feel the decay and death aura coming from the room when he stood at the gate of the yard. Chen Zhining frowned slightly and quickly walked up. The maid stood behind him, with a slight sneer on the corner of her mouth. She still had a grudge against Chen Zhining's "spections" of her.
"Cruff" Chen Zhining pushed open the door, and the interior was dim, the windows were blocked by thick curtains, and in the corner, there was a broken lamp like beans.
Mr. He gasped like a broken bellows: "You are here."
Chen Zhining turned around and closed the door, quickly stepped forward: "What's wrong with you?"
"Oh, the deadline is coming." Old He coughed again, very lightly, and he didn't even have the strength to cough.
He raised his hand and his skin was dry like a tree trunk. It seemed that with a gentle touch, his whole body would shatter and go away with the wind.
"Come on, I heard you used it twice to press the world, and then there was a problem with it?"
"Yes." Chen Zhining fabricated several questions and said one by one. Mr. He nodded while listening.
"I'll do my best. Maybe this is the last time I've adjusted you." Mr. He activated the formation.
Outside the door, the maid yawned bored when she overheard Chen Zhining describe the problem. She knew nothing about the formation and it was meaningless to listen to it.
The light of the formation lit up, completely isolated the inside and outside. The maid still felt that she could monitor the two people inside. In fact, what she heard was only what Mr. He wanted her to hear; what she saw was only what Mr. He asked her to see.
Chen Zhining held the shaking Mr. He: "How are you?"
Mr. He sat down with a breath of breath, his face full of resentment: "I'm going to die. In fact, I should have died ninety years ago, but the royal family still needs me and cannot let me die. So all kinds of spiritual medicines and spiritual tithings in the world pile up one by one, and I have to live for ninety years more!"
"Most of them have dedicated themselves to the royal family for ninety years, and more of them have endured the rootless humiliation of ninety years!"
"And now, I can't do it at all, and Huangshi has found a new candidate, so I was given up without any suspense."
He said this, and stopped silent for a moment, looking out of the palace: "My child is already in the middle stage of the Jue Rong Realm. If he can still have resources to support him, he might be able to get a glimpse of the heavenly realm!"
"But I got the news that a month ago, the royal family had completely given up their care for my family. He was struggling in the capital and was ready to move out of the capital."
"Do you know what this means?" Mr. He asked sternly.
Chen Zhining knew that Mr. He was not targeting him, but was resentful in his heart. He also felt sad in his heart. He nodded and said, "I know that the royal family will send people to rob and kill halfway, completely eradicate the roots, and eliminate the possibility of the last leak!"
Old He burst into tears: "This is the reward the royal family has given me! A total of the descendants are completely cut off!"
Chapter completed!
