Chapter 671: You can have both the fish and the bear's paw
Palace City of the Song Dynasty.
Gao Qiu floated out.
Not only did she feel light under her feet, as if she was about to fly into the clouds, but she had just received repeated compliments from the officials. She was smiling so happily that her muscles ached. When she wasn't smiling, her face was wrinkled.
Gao Lian came forward and was so happy to see his cousin that he was ready to flatter him: "Brother..."
Gao Qiu glanced at his cousin and said, "How many times have I told you that you must address your duties when you work!"
Gao Lian quickly changed his words: "Higher point!"
Gao Qiu raised his hand indifferently: "I want to ask Gao to be promoted. When the imperial edict is issued tomorrow, I will be promoted to the Imperial City Secretary!"
Only then did Gao Lian understand that it turned out to be such a merit-based method, but after thinking about it carefully, he was still overjoyed: "Congratulations on the promotion!"
The highest position originally held by the Imperial City Division was official affairs, and the number varied. At its peak, there were ten, and at its worst, there were only one or two.
When the news of matricide spread in the capital, Zhao Ji was ready to re-activate the Imperial City Department, so he appointed a member of the Imperial City Department whose rank was above official duties. When Xu Zhida heard the report, he also appointed two people from the Imperial City Department to be promoted, whose status was lower than that of the Imperial City Department.
, above official business.
Gao Qiu's previous position was a point of reference for one of the two people. It was not because Zhao Ji was overpowering him, but because he had no qualifications and merit. He was just a lucky minister who relied on Cuju to rise to the top. It was impossible to assign a top leader at once.
Of course, it doesn't matter if you don't arrange a top leader. The position of promotion is empty and no one takes it. This is a common thing in the imperial court. For example, Zhao Tingzhi, the prime minister of the imperial censor, is the chief of the imperial censor station, and the imperial censor is empty.
But Gao Qiu was the only one who should have made the point, and it was obvious that he deliberately let the Imperial City Secretary have the final say.
However, this also has disadvantages. Gao Qiu is not qualified to arrange his subordinates, so he can only lead a group of subordinates.
Until now.
Now that Gao Qiu, who has been promoted as the Imperial City Secretary, has the full trust of the officials, two of his subordinates have given advice and ten more officials have been appointed!
Thinking about that scene is heart-warming!
"The Imperial City Division is in my hands. We must become bigger and stronger and create greater glory!"
Gao Qiu clenched his fists and shook them fiercely. Then he thought of the other two members of the trio who raided the house, and wished he could share this joy right away: "Go back to Ye's house!"
Under the galloping horse of Gao Tiju, the cold wind blowing at night could not extinguish the fire in his heart.
Next, on the way, they happened to bump into the prison car led by Pei Xuan, escorting the Ye family.
"It's unfair! It's unfair!" "We have no idea what Mrs. Alang did. We are all good citizens!"
Inside the prison van, people were crying for their fathers and mothers, and many people shouted loudly that they had been wronged.
"What an injustice. If you were really kind people, could Ye Jichang and his wife tolerate you? They would have been dealt with long ago!"
Gao Qiu watched this scene, disgusted but at the same time feeling full of achievements. He spoke in Qingtian's tone and lectured: "You must remember that the Imperial City Secretary will not wrongly accuse a good person, nor can he let go of an evil thief. Do you understand?
?”
Pei Xuan looked over with admiration, took the lead and clasped his fists, followed by thunderous shouts: "Understood!"
Gao Qiu nodded with satisfaction and dismounted in front of Ye's house, just in time to see Ding Run coming up to him with beaming eyebrows: "Gao Qiu, I'm so happy!"
Gao Qiu couldn't wait to share the happy things about this good friend who confiscated the house: "I'm also very happy here!"
Ding Run saw his face glowing red in the winter and the steam steaming from his head. He couldn't help but smile and said, "Is the official rewarding you heavily?"
Gao Qiu couldn't hold back his smile again: "I will promote Ren to the Imperial City Department. Is Judge Ding interested in returning to the Imperial City Department to serve as a post?"
"Eternal God Emperor"
"this……"
Ding Run was really moved, and after thinking for a while he said: "If Wu Juhou is still in the position of prefect, he will be in trouble with me again. Then I will come to Gao Tiju!"
Gao Qiu nodded repeatedly: "Okay! Okay!"
Ding Run said in a low voice: "Actually, Gao Tiju should be most grateful to Mr. Lin. This time he was able to arrest the traitors of the Ming Zun Cult and completely defeat the General Hou Guild. It all depends on him!"
"I know I know……"
Gao Qiu's eyes flickered. He had actually thought about two promotion positions, one for Ding Run and one for Lin Chong. They were good brothers who ransacked the house together, but he was worried that with that person's ability, if he entered the officialdom, he would
A meteoric rise...
Feeling conflicted in his heart, he subconsciously asked: "Where is Mr. Lin?"
Ding Run immediately became excited: "Isn't this the good news I just mentioned? The Ye family's privately hidden property has been found. We haven't calculated how much it has yet, but it must be extremely rich. We didn't take any money before, but we got evidence of the crime, and now we can
After collecting money, there will be profit sharing from the chamber of commerce industry, which is a huge profit!"
Gao Qiu was stunned: "You still have property?"
He really thought that after getting that piece of evidence, he wouldn't have to worry about his property. Unexpectedly, there were unexpected twists and turns, and he couldn't help but said sincerely: "It's amazing to have both the fish and the bear's paw! Where is Mr. Lin? I'll go see him quickly.
!”
Ding Run replied: "He is saving the souls of the dead."
…
"right here?"
Li Yan carried the unconscious young master to an open space in the inner house.
Shishi looked at the bloody threads on Shaodong's body, dancing more and more fiercely, and nodded slightly.
Li Yan sighed: "Here comes someone."
The agents from the Imperial City Department and Kaifeng Government Office quickly came to the front. Li Yan stretched out his hand and said, "dig!"
Everyone was ordered to dig, and soon a shocking discovery was made. Buried skeletons were dug out one after another.
Most of these victims had rotted into bones, making it difficult to identify them. However, judging from the many exquisite gold and silver ornaments they carried with them, it was clear that their identities during their lifetime were unusual.
Li Yan sighed and said, "Put these relics away and compare them with the ornaments worn by the missing official prostitute in Fan Lou during her lifetime to try to determine her identity."
Shishi turned away at the signal at first, but soon turned around and looked at this scene sadly: "If there were no high officials, Sister Cui would be one of them..."
Seeing Wu Zuo step forward to seal the evidence, Li Yan held the piece of Xuanyin Jade in his hand and began to activate his magic power. However, after trying for a while, he chose to give up, and then another layer of Niwan Palace surged.
Golden radiance, murmuring in the mouth: "The evil and evil disappear, the dead souls are saved, the sandalwood merit Buddha helps me..."
Whether it is his unparalleled physique or the mana he has consciously developed and reserved since entering this world, his foundation is extremely deep. Compared to Ye Dianzhi, he has to practice hard at the cost of harming his body. An introduction to Taiyuan Zhenfa
Everything will fall into place.
However, because the time is too short, there is not much profound understanding. It is okay to close an uncontrolled formation, but it will take time to practice to perform complex operations.
So he tried to activate the Taiyuan Zhenjue of Taoism. After discovering that he could not master the complicated spell, he immediately used the Buddhist contemplation method. With the help of the power of the Tantan Merit Buddha, an invisible light spread out and calmed down the ghost energy around him.
.
However, Li Yan's practice of supernatural powers is different from others. He focuses on his own thoughts. At this moment, he can save the souls of the dead and calm down the ghost spirits, in order to prevent this area from becoming a dangerous place, and other ghosts will be born in the future to scare people.
But he did not directly dispel the resentment of those who died in vain, but allowed them to find the culprit...
Every injustice has its owner, and every debt has its owner.
The young master, who was lying on the ground, suddenly woke up.
"Treasury! My treasury! My six million!"
"That person is related to 'Zuo Ming'! Either 'Zuo Ming' is here personally, or he is the descendant of 'Zuo Ming'!"
His reaction was very quick and he immediately started talking.
But no matter what I say now, it is useless.
Because looking around, there are countless black air currents surrounding him, faintly transforming into hundreds of densely packed human faces.
Those faces were strange and familiar, most of which he couldn't remember clearly. They must have been the women he used to practice his skills. He didn't even know their last names, but there were more than a dozen faces among them, and they were the famous prostitutes he had strangled to death.
And on every face, there were extremely miserable howls, fear and begging for mercy. The countless pains that had been inflicted on them were now turned into solid resentment, like surging waves, hitting them hard.
"Don't come over! Don't come over!
"
The young host’s family held their heads and howled.
In the past, the ghost's backlash was borne by the incarnation. As long as he withdraws his consciousness in advance, the damage to the main body will be minimal.
Now he no longer has an incarnation, countless grievances are coming out of every pore in his body, and countless black lines are snaking out, covering every part of his body.
"Save me...who will save me...Mr. Qian...Zhang Qing...Xu Ning..."
The indescribable pain made the young master cry bitterly, and he stretched out his hands to grab it, but failed every time.
Soon, he also knew that among the few people, no one would come to help, so he laughed miserably: "Don't leave me alone... take my parents with me..."
But soon,
He realized something again: "No... on the road to hell... don't let me be with my parents... I never want to... never want to... again in my next life..."
The sound stopped suddenly.
The resentment dissipated and the souls of the unjust dead were appeased, revealing the huddled body in the center with withered flesh and blood.
Master Shishi witnessed the dispersion of countless blood-colored threads, and this style of transcending the souls of the dead was imprinted in his eyes. His eyes were full of color, and then he let out a light sigh.
Li Yan also raised his eyebrows, feeling as if an invisible force was coming down and falling on him.
[Luck: 22 (You don’t have to worry about your wife being in danger when she goes out, the premise is that you have a wife)] → [Luck: 23 (You have good luck to protect you)]
"After rescuing the souls of the dead, the Qi numbers still add up and are reflected in the attribute column. Does this mean that the luck is improved?"
"So, of the five basic attributes in this world, three of them have already been supplemented. Wisdom is supplemented with spiritual intelligence, physique is supplemented with elemental power, and luck is supplemented with qi. I wonder if appearance and family background will change..."
Just as he was thinking about it, two figures walked over quickly, revealing the smiling faces of Gao Qingtian and Ding Yanluo.
Looking at these two people, Li Yan also laughed.
The trio who ransacked the house gathered together happily.
