"That's right, there are other big things happening."
Long Haoyun sighed: "It's such a troubled time. What kind of evil has our Jinyun Prefecture done? Why can't it stop?"
Zuo Chongming led him to the study and poured tea himself: "My lord, let's have a sip of tea first. The banquet is still being arranged. Let's talk about business first."
"Yes, it's about the Liansheng Sect."
Long Haoyun frowned and said in a deep voice: "Please tell me carefully, what is going on?"
Zuo Chongming took out a memorial from his spiritual ring and handed it over with a smile: "After reading the memorial, you will understand everything clearly."
"Yeah?"
Long Haoyun's eyes flashed with light, and he opened the memorial meaningfully.
There is a lot of content in the memorial, but the words and sentences are too dry, and it feels a bit like writing a running account. Fortunately, the process is described very clearly.
After a while, a smile appeared on Long Haoyun's lips, half-smiling but not smiling: "This memorial... is a bit interesting."
The process described by Zuo Chongming is like this...
Lianyunbao encountered a great demon and came to Zhenfusi for help.
Zuo Zhongming thought that the demon could seriously injure a warrior in the blood coagulation realm, so it must be very powerful, so out of caution, he sent a letter asking for help to Long Haoyun.
Long Haoyun sympathized with his subordinates and cared about the livelihood of the people, so he decided to go and deal with it himself.
But no one expected that they would be ambushed by the Liansheng Sect as soon as they arrived at Lianyun Castle.
After a fierce bloody battle, Long Haoyun beheaded Sima Protector in the Guiyuan Realm on the spot, while Zuo Chongming severely injured the Holy Son Dongfang Yao...
Dongfang Yaogui is the holy son of Liansheng Cult, and he has endless trump cards. When the situation is not good, he will use secret methods to escape.
Zuo Zhongming originally wanted to pursue him, but he had just entered the blood coagulation realm. Although he severely injured Dongfang Yao, he was also seriously injured, so he was powerless.
At this critical moment, Long Haoyun stepped forward and stopped Dongfang Yao in time to capture him alive, thus quelling the disaster in Lianyun Castle.
This is what happened!
This is also what Long Haoyun said is a bit interesting.
There was a long silence.
Long Haoyun smiled approvingly. He was also an old official, so he could naturally see Zuo Chongming's intentions.
There are two reasons for this move.
First, Emperor Wu had awarded Zuo Chongming several rewards, and last time he was given a princess in marriage.
Only about ten months later, Zuo Chongming has made such a great contribution again. How do you ask Emperor Wu to reward him? This will definitely make Emperor Wu feel uncomfortable.
Second, in terms of official rank, Zuo Chongming’s boss is Long Haoyun, but he makes meritorious deeds and gets things done… bypassing his immediate superior.
After such a long time, it will inevitably make Long Haoyun feel uncomfortable. After all, he is a dignified envoy of the town, but he is not even as good as a subordinate?
In summary.
Zuo Chongming's move to give in to the situation not only relieved Long Haoyun's knot in his heart, but also gave him a huge favor, which helped him build a better relationship.
And according to the excerpt, although Zuo Chongming was not the protagonist in this matter, he still contributed a lot, so Emperor Wu could also reward him to avoid negative responses.
With one fell swoop, everyone is happy.
Long Haoyun finally understood why Zuo Chongming was able to stay in the emperor's heart at such a young age.
There is never a shortage of people who know how to get things done in this world, and the imperial court is certainly not lacking either.
But being able to do things doesn't mean being able to do them comfortably.
But what about Zuo Chongming?
He can do just that.
This is the key.
"Your Excellency is ridiculous."
Zuo Chongming smiled modestly and whispered: "But adults should know that Dongfang Yao knows the facts."
"This is easy to handle."
Long Haoyun sneered: "After all, he is the holy son of the Liansheng Sect, and he is also a decent person. If he is not decent, I will help him look decent."
The favor Zuo Chongming sent was too great, to capture the Holy Son of Liansheng Sect alive!!!
With this political achievement and his accumulation in previous years, it is easy to get promoted and make a fortune.
If Dongfang Yao dares to ruin his important affairs, Long Haoyun will naturally not mind making him... decent.
"Two adults."
Hui Hai respectfully said at the door: "The banquet, musicians, and dancers are all ready, and the banquet can be held at any time..."
"oh?"
Zuo Chongming raised his eyebrows, stood up and said with a smile: "In that case, Master Long, how about we chat while eating?"
"Very good."
Long Haoyun met his eyes, and the two smiled in tacit understanding.

The "Homecoming" forum is very lively.
After the game company’s promotion regardless of cost, the popularity of the game has spread beyond the circle.
How popular is it exactly?
Let's put it this way.
The film and television IP and fan IP of Zuo Chongming, an NPC, have all been sold to tens of figures.
After all, we are in an age of advanced technology, and there are endless movies, TV dramas, animations, literature, fan fiction, and collaborations about Zuo Chongming.
Especially in terms of animation and linkage, after getting the copyright, they only need to find the game developer to get detailed data, and then they can quickly incubate the finished product.
As long as Zuo Chongming's basic character remains unchanged, the work won't be too bad and may even attract a wave of popularity.
But in the entertainment industry, things are a bit unsatisfactory.
Because the movies, TV series, etc. that were spawned in a short period of time were all scolded by Zuo Chongming's fans.
The reason is simple - it doesn't look like it!
Especially the actor who played Zuo Chongming was sprayed all over his body, and several of them even quit the show.
There is no way around it, Zuo Chongming has too many female fans, and the female fans who are in the fandom are absolutely invincible in fighting ability, so they are really going to die.
However, these film and television companies were also smart and quickly changed their methods and directly promoted Zuo Chongming as a "virtual idol".
What no one expected was that this series of outrageous operations would lead to the NPC Zuo Chongming becoming far more popular than the game "Homeward Bound".
Just like the leader of the 3D area - Tifa.
…
A certain linked live broadcast room.
The female commentator Tutu asked curiously: "Sister Juhua, what are you doing?"
"Let's make a strategy."
The Chrysanthemum Warrior pulled back her hair, pursed her lips and smiled: "You don't think that the game "Homeward Bound" is the same as other virtual games, do you?"
Tutu scratched his head and pouted in confusion: "Isn't it just that the realism is a little higher? NPCs are more real, but others seem to be gone."
According to legal regulations, the immersion degree, that is, the degree of realism, of such virtual games must not exceed 80%.
This is to prevent people from being too immersed in the game and unable to distinguish between reality and virtuality.
But it’s a bit outrageous that the game “Homeward Bound” was able to obtain special permission to achieve 90% realism.
Many people speculate that 80% of the background behind this game is...
It's a pity that the official position has never been expressed on this matter, so naturally it has been left to nothing.
"No!"
The Daisy Warrior shook his head: "First of all, the background of this game is automatic deduction, not a formulaic open world, so the NPCs are more intelligent."
"Although the gameplay is very free, don't forget the background of the game, where demons are rampant and evil spirits are everywhere... it's still an ancient feudal society."
Tutu asked: "So?"
The Chrysanthemum Warrior sighed: "The most typical example of ancient feudal society is that... people are divided into three, six or nine classes, and the classes are clear and orderly."
Tutu was stunned for a moment, then asked on behalf of the majority of the barrage: "It makes sense, but what does it mean?"
