Liu Zhenyuan stood on the high platform at the front. Below him were two thousand households, four deputy thousand households and eighteen hundred households. Most of the senior officials in Beijing Jinyiwei gathered here, and everyone looked serious.
"Today, we have been summoned for an urgent matter."
Liu Zhenyuan picked up a document: "Receive an urgent military order from the Ministry of War! Offshore earthquakes occurred in Penglai, Dengzhou and other places in Shandong, affecting areas around the Bohai Sea and causing heavy losses!
Zhou Bangzhen, the protector of the Taiping Sect of the demon sect, took the opportunity to lead his followers to incite the refugees to rebel in the name of "the anger of heaven and the resentment of mankind"!
In less than ten months, it has already affected the four provinces of Shandong, Hebei, Henan, and South Zhili!
The Third and Fourth Lao have already taken the lead, now you and others will rush to Shandong immediately to capture the Taiping Sect traitors and kill them without mercy!"
"yes!"
The voice in the lobby was as loud as thunder: "My subordinates take orders!"
Liu Zhenyuan nodded and was about to order everyone to disperse when suddenly a school captain quickly walked into the lobby and reported: "I am reporting to the envoy of the town, Master Cao, Miao Jiang has returned to Beijing after revolting and is asking for an audience outside the door."
His words immediately stopped the crowd who were about to disperse.
Everyone looked towards the door.
To suppress the rebellion in Miao territory, Master Cao...
Can Cao Jin do it?
This is a big celebrity!
First, the Miao Territory was successful in suppressing the rebellion. The emperor personally gave him the Feiyu suit and ordered him to be promoted to the 13th Taibao. Then the Langya List spread all over the world, and he stood out among countless young masters and ranked at the top of the Tianjiao List!
Whether in the world or in the court, this person is famous and enviable.
Many people who have never met him want to see how charming this 13th Taibao is. He can achieve such a reputation in just two months...
"Is this brat finally willing to come back after more than twenty days of hard work?"
Liu Zhenyuan chuckled: "Let him come in."
"yes."
The captain exited the lobby.
Soon, the respectful voice of the captain came from outside the door: "Sir Cao, the governor has summoned you."
"Um."
There was a faint voice.
Then the sound of footsteps came.
In the lobby, a group of senior Jinyiwei officials heard the sound of footsteps getting closer and closer, becoming increasingly clear.
Immediately, a figure wearing a silver-gray flying fish suit pierced his eyes.
The Jinyiwei Feiyu costume is inherently gorgeous, especially at the Qianhu level, and its silver-grey color is even more eye-catching.
However, many Jin Yiwei come from lower backgrounds. After learning martial arts, they are more than sharp, but not elegant enough. They cannot wear the feeling they should have, and they can only treat them as ordinary official uniforms.
It wasn't until this moment that they understood what a truly good horse with a good saddle looked like.
Under the gaze of all the senior officials, Cao Jinxing strode in with calm expression and calm demeanor.
He is handsome with sharp eyebrows and starry eyes.
Clothing, simple and elegant, exquisite.
Buddha relies on gold and clothing, and people rely on clothing.
Along the way, Cao Jinxing displayed both the majesty of an official and the unrestrained freehand style of a man in the world, and his noble demeanor was clearly displayed.
Many senior officials who originally disapproved of him couldn't help but change their minds when they saw the pride and confidence emanating from their bones. To have such magnanimity is absolutely extraordinary!
"My subordinate, Cao Jinxing, has met your Excellency."
Cao Jinxing walked through the crowd and bowed.
"very good!"
Liu Zhenyuan looked him up and down, very satisfied, nodded and said: "The fifth level of innateness, there is progress. But... there is a problem with the title."
Cao Jinxing was stunned: "What's the problem?"
Liu Zhenyuan smiled: "Here comes someone."
Seeing Cao Jinxing come back, Liu Zhenyuan's personal attendant was thoughtful and immediately brought over the things that should have been given to Cao Jinxing long ago.
Upon hearing his call, the attendant quickly took the tray and carried those things into the lobby.
Came to Cao Jinxing.
Cao Jinxing took a look and saw that it was a brand new official uniform and a secret book called "Yin Yuan Jue".
"This is the flying fish suit given by the emperor himself, made of the highest quality cloud brocade. There is also a "Yin Yuan Jue", which is a unique secret technique given by Eunuch Lu."
Liu Zhenyuan solemnly said: "Now that you have become famous and attracted people's attention, this Yin Yuan Jue can help you cover your Qi and hide yourself. Practice well and don't let down the expectations of the Holy Emperor and Eunuch Lu."
"yes."
Cao Jinxing bowed and said: "I would like to thank the Holy Master for the reward, and Eunuch Lu for the reward."
He looked at the secret book and thought that sending such a secret book at this time should be regarded as a warning, allowing him to "hide" under his reputation and guard against arrogance and impetuosity, as always.
This secret method of concealing qi can be regarded as Lu Fu's "unique secret method". It should be of high grade, but it would save him the need to go to the secret warehouse to pick it up again.
"Now let's get back to the issue of titles."
Liu Zhenyuan put his hands behind his back and said with a smile: "The Thirteen Taibao brothers are like brothers. Thirteen, what do you think you should call me?"
"..."
It turns out to be this.
Cao Jinxing couldn't laugh or cry in his heart, but since Liu Zhenyuan gave him such face, Cao Jinxing didn't have any stage fright and directly clasped his fists and said:
"Brother!"
"That's pretty much it."
Liu Zhenyuan smiled sincerely. Looking at him was like seeing himself in the past, as high-spirited and as calm.
Just a little bit...
This kid is much more handsome than he was before.
Liu Zhenyuan waved his hand and threw out a token: "There is also a fifth-grade Kung Fu, go and see it. By the way, take your subordinates with you, each with a sixth-grade one."
Then he said to the others: "Everyone is gone. The military situation is urgent. Let's go!"
"yes!"
A group of senior executives walked out of the lobby quickly.
Cao Jinxing, holding his new official uniform and secret books, followed the crowd and retreated out. Four guards in royal robes were waiting outside. When they saw him coming out, they watched him nervously.
Cao Jinxing smiled and showed his token: "Let's go to the secret warehouse."
The four of them couldn't help but look happy.
In this operation, they were often unable to intervene and were not of much help. The credit they received was all due to Cao Jin's brilliant conduct and his superiors' love for the enemy.
However, in order to be able to help you in the future, I can only accept this rare opportunity to enter the secret vault shamelessly.
A group of five people entered the passage again.
The old Taoist priest from Longhu Mountain was still there, and I could feel Cao Jinxing's special icy aura from afar. I thought to myself that it had only been a month since I last saw him, and this boy had actually stepped up to another level!
This is the innate realm!
I’ve never seen anything so outrageous!
"Senior, we meet again."
Cao Jinxing had a good impression of this old Taoist priest, and he relied on his guidance when choosing "Yu Bing Jue".
When I came back this time, I specially brought some jars of plum wine, a specialty of Mingquan Pavilion in Tongren Prefecture, as a gift to him.
As soon as the jars of wine were placed on the table, the old Taoist priest was stunned: "For me?"
"if not?"
Cao Jinxing opened the lid of the wine jar, and the aroma of wine filled his nostrils. The old Taoist priest's throat rolled, and he smelled the good wine, and felt a little more cordial.
"It's rare for you to travel far away and still remember the old ways."
"I will keep the kindness of my seniors in mind. These jars of wine are specialties of Miao and have a unique taste. I will give them to my seniors to try."
"It's just a small thing, nothing worth worrying about."
Having said that, the old Taoist priest couldn't wait to raise the jar and take a sip. His eyes lit up: "Good wine! In addition to the finest plums, it seems to also contain the essence of the Five Poisons, which has a unique flavor."
"Senior, please use it slowly."
The other four people quickly picked out the secret books and told Cao Jinxing to go into the secret library. Cao Jinxing then started to pick slowly.
This time, his target is sword skills.
"Senior, do you know about Nirvana in Fire?"
Cao Jinxing asked while flipping through the book.
"Ouch!"
The old Taoist took a sip of wine and smacked his lips: "This matter is spreading like wildfire! The old Taoist has been hiding here and listening to people talking about it. As soon as this list came out, some people were happy and some were worried."
This is true.
People who don't like trouble will hate Langya Pavilion to death!
Cao Jinxing glanced at the catalog and said casually: "Senior, what do you think the Langya Pavilion is doing to make such a big fuss?"
"Get rich!"
The old Taoist priest said unceremoniously: "This list is just to enhance your reputation, and the ranking of these people is very weird. They do not provoke the royal family, do not provoke the demon sect, respect the righteous way, and suppress the evil sect. Didn't you notice? Those who are dissatisfied with the ranking
They are all small sects and heretics, but these people pose no threat to Langya Mountain at all."
"really."
Cao Jinxing smiled: "I didn't expect that senior living here in seclusion can still hit the nail on the head."
"This is nothing."
The old Taoist priest said: "There are many people who can tell. Their main purpose is to sell information and take advantage of the opportunity to make money, but I don't know what they do after that."
"I heard that Tianjimen has a long history?"
"yes……"
At this point, the old Taoist priest's face changed slightly, and he rolled his eyes at Cao Jinxing angrily: "What a boy! Are you using a few jars of wine to get away with this news from me!"
"cough……"
Cao Jinxing coughed lightly and was not embarrassed. He smiled and said: "The main thing is to give you a taste, and by the way, I can ask some questions. I am not too lazy to check the records..."
"snort!"
The old Taoist priest snorted, but he was not angry at all.
He has been guarding the secret treasury for several years. He has nothing to do except practice every day. He also enjoys having a junior to "make trouble".
"The Document Library is not omniscient. The Tianji Sect was founded in the Tang Dynasty, but its real origin can be traced back to the Three Kingdoms. This group of people has made such a fuss and has big intentions. You must be careful."
It's really not that simple...
Cao Jinxing kept it in mind and said with a smile: "I know, don't worry, they probably won't look down on my abilities... Senior, I've made my choice."
Cao Jinxing held up the catalog and showed it to the old Taoist priest.
After the old Taoist priest finished sweeping it, he saw four big characters written on it: "Eight Jue of Heavenly Sword".
