I haven't seen Mi Ke, a high-ranking official in the border area, for a long time. He's darkened and lost some weight.
Chen Chao stood in the heavy snow and smiled at Mi Ke, who was holding an umbrella while repelling the people around him: "The governor is acting like this because he really wants me to wait until he returns to the capital of God and say a few words in front of His Highness the Crown Prince. Mi Ke is dedicated to serving the people.
I have already lost a lot of weight."
Mi Ke tightened his robe tightly. If it were anyone else, he would have said a few official words, but when he saw Chen Chao, he just smiled and said: "Come on, let me have something to eat, please?"
"
Chen Chao's thoughts suddenly returned to Tianqing County. It was like this at that time, but now things are different. Although they both have high official positions, they can still sit together to eat and drink together.
Back in the state capital, the two sat down under the pavilion and lit a stove. Two pots of wine were placed next to the stove. Then Mi Ke cut the meat with a knife and roasted it on the stove.
"How come you, old man, have become rough when you go to the north?"
Chen Chao joked, among other things, Mi Ke was a scholar, not to mention that a gentleman would cook far away, even if he wanted to cook, he would never do it like this.
While cutting the meat, Mi Ke smiled bitterly and said: "You don't know this place. It snows all year round for seven or eight months. If you don't eat meat, you can't live at all. The imperial court has just started to build, so
We can transport some coarse salt, but as for other things, don’t even think about it. It’s just a dream to think about eating as exquisitely as in the capital of God!”
Chen Chao picked up a piece of meat and put it into his mouth, then took a sip of hot wine. He really felt that his body had warmed up a lot, and then he said, "It's bitterly cold in the north. It's naturally troublesome to start everything from scratch, but I think Lao Mi
You just do as the Romans do, what about other officials?"
"I ran back a little bit, and the court didn't pursue it. Who knew it was so bad here at first, but the worse it gets, the happier I am. This damn thing came from nothing. I won't be able to mention Beiyuanzhou in the future without me.
Mi Ke’s name?”
Mi Ke threw a piece of meat into his mouth, and then took a sip of hot wine, very free and easy.
Chen Chao asked curiously: "Old Mi, how old do you want to be as an official?"
There are no outsiders here, and the relationship between the two is okay, otherwise Chen Chao would not be able to ask.
Mi Ke glanced at Chen Chao and said straight to the point: "If others ask, I won't say anything, but since it's you who are asking, I'll tell you the truth. It would be great if you could be the chief official of the Six Ministries before becoming an official in this life. As for
Zaifu, I have never thought about it, and I dare not think about it."
Chen Chao nodded and said with a smile: "Depending on your temper, that's it. But I don't know for sure. If you can recruit some disciples in Beiyuan and gain a foothold in the court in the future, what kind of scandal will you create?"
Door, then you can still think about becoming a prime minister in the future."
Mi Ke waved his hand, only the two of them could openly discuss this kind of thing here.
"However, His Royal Highness is still a wise king today, so he doesn't need to be so cautious. However, party disputes have never ended well in all dynasties."
Mi Ke was also struggling in the officialdom. How could he not know these skills?
Chen Chao suddenly asked: "When the capital was moved, you were holding a stick in the court to beat people. How many people in the court now hate you?"
When asked about this, Chen Chao himself was laughing.
After all, if you think about a civil servant beating someone with a stick in the court, this must be the only one.
Mi Ke blushed, "It's all thanks to you for this. You haven't fallen down yet. Now those officials have to be nice and friendly on the surface when they see me. But after I come to Beiyuan, they are afraid that they will
Let’s celebrate together at home.”
Chen Chao was suddenly startled, "What do you mean, old Mi, that there is already a 'Chen Party' in the court?"
Mi Ke was also startled, then he held his stomach and laughed, "You boy, if you want to be the emperor, what else do you need from this party or that party?"
When Chen Chao wants to be emperor, his biggest supporters are the countless people of Liang.
He has already won the hearts and minds of the people.
Chen Chao shook his head and had nothing to say.
Mi Ke said with a serious face: "If you don't say anything else, just one sentence, if you dare not send me an invitation when you get married, I will be in trouble with you!"
Chen Chao said nothing, but smiled mellowly.

…
With the destruction of Qingsongguan, the death of Master Qingmu finally made the big shots in the three departments concerned.
After all, Master Aoki is not an unknown person. Although he cannot be ranked at the top of the list, he is still considered a strong person. Now that he is dead like this, these big monks will pay attention to him after all.
In the south, if Qiuling Mountain continues to develop like this, it has a good chance of replacing Nanhua Mountain as the largest sect in the south. Who would have known that just one thought would cause Qiuling Mountain to be seriously damaged. In another hundred and eighty years, it will be destroyed.
Don't talk about recovery.
However, because of this incident, not many monks from Qiuling Mountain went to the battlefield during the battle between the three tribes in the west. In this matter, it can be said to be a blessing in disguise.
Now the new mountain master of Qiuling Mountain is named Guangling Zhenren, and his realm is far from being comparable to that of the previous mountain master. But even so, it took a lot of effort for him to take the position of mountain master.
At this moment, he was on the mountain, listening to the news from below.
When he heard that the person who destroyed Qingsongguan was a young man, the Guangling master raised his eyebrows, and then his face darkened.
Nowadays, a Qiuling Mountain probably cannot face these two words.
These two words are not good words in their ears.
"I have found out clearly that he came from overseas. The young man that Lone Moon Peak wanted to kill back then has now stepped into that realm. It seems that he is even more terrifying than Chen Che."
The Taoist was frightened. After all, during this period, he had already killed Qixing Zhenren and destroyed Qingsong Temple. If he continued to fight like this, would Qiuling Mountain's fate be the same as that of Qingsong Temple before?
Master Guangling's face was ugly, but he still managed to calm down and said: "Chen Che has already gone up the mountain, it will be nothing if he comes again..."
Before he finished speaking, the face of the new mountain master suddenly changed, because he suddenly remembered that Chen Che has now come together with the western side. In other words, as long as Chen Che can come to Qiuling Mountain, in fact,
It would not be surprising if they were destroyed.
"But if they want to destroy us, can Nanhua Mountain just sit back and do nothing? Forget about Qingsongguan. If we are all destroyed, then the hearts of the people will be scattered, and the rest will fall towards the west like weeds?"
Master Guangling took a breath for himself, beat his heart, and said in a deep voice: "We must keep a close eye on him. If he gets too close to Qiuling Mountain, we should immediately inform Nanhua Mountain and they will not take action. Is this okay?"
The Taoist nodded and suddenly asked: "The small sect with which he has a very complicated relationship seems to be called the Little Snow Sect. How should we deal with it? Otherwise, we should take action first..."
"Confused!"
Master Guangling stared at the Taoist in front of him and said: "Take action first. Those two uncles and nephews are just like they were carved from the same mold. If we really want to take action, both of them might be able to set foot directly on Qiuling Mountain. If it's over there on Nanhua Mountain
If it's a little later, this mountain will be gone!"
When the Taoist heard this, he suddenly sweated like rain. He could still remember the way Chen Che went up the mountain. It was indeed unwise to provoke them again now.
"But, the news can be told to Nanhua Mountain. As the leader of our southern part, Nanhua Mountain can't just watch Qingsong Temple being destroyed, right?"
Master Guangling smiled slightly, but there was no smile in it, "Damn it, everyone ranked first, second, and third, what are you doing hiding if you don't take action? Then Fuyao Tianren is also fourth, this gang
Everyone is fucking taking action, one Fuyao Heavenly Man and the other Chen Che, what kind of waves can they really make?"
…
…
Fuyao Sect.
The news about Qingsong Temple also came back, and Chen Che was not surprised. Fuyao Tianren, the leader of Fuyao Sect, tutted his tongue and said: "One person penetrated Qingsong Temple and killed the Master Qingmu? Your Majesty, you
That nephew is really not thirty years old this year?"
Chen Che smiled, his nephew was indeed too outstanding.
The girl in white looked at Chen Che's undisguised smile and rolled her eyes, "I found out. The reason why that guy killed people like this was because a group of fishermen were kidnapped. All the sects related to those fishermen, he
We all went there, and you know the result."
Chen Che raised his eyebrows and said, "What now?"
"I bought a big boat and went back. I guess I took the surviving fishermen back to my hometown."
The girl in white rubbed her cheek, then went out and stood outside the window, blowing in the wind. She was noncommittal about these things, but there were some things she couldn't understand.
Chen Che's face was filled with relief.
Fuyao Tianren smiled and said: "A fisherman is also a human being, and his life is always more important than the sky. These people, no matter what, they just don't understand this truth."
Chen Che sighed: "Yes, it is obviously a very important thing."
…
…
Nanhua Mountain is indeed the largest mountain in the south. From a distance, it can be seen that the fairy spirit is lingering, all kinds of strange beasts are running around in the mountain, and the mountain is full of glow.
One of the top three people today is actually an elder from Nanhua Mountain, but he has been in seclusion for many years and has almost no interest in worldly affairs. Not to mention outsiders, even the disciples of Wanwan Mountain have never seen him.
Shanzhu Anzhenren, although his position on the list is not as high as that of Fuyao Tianren, he is still in the top ten and is a well-known powerhouse in Xiandao.
Listening to the Taoist priest from Qiuling Mountain talking about these things, Master Guan'an sat on the futon and did not speak for a long time.
The Taoist lowered his head and did not dare to look at the big man, but he still said: "As the head of the south, Nanhua Mountain always has to do something. Watching Qingsong Temple destroyed by others and being indifferent will only make people angry.
Heartbroken!"
Master Guan'an smiled, then stood up, with countless rich Tao Qi flowing around him, like a river of stars.
"Of course I have to do something. If that's the case, I'll send someone to kill him. You should also send two people out of Qiuling Mountain."
After Master Guan'an said these words, he walked out of the hall by himself and paid no attention to anything else.
The Taoist said from behind, "Master..."
After shouting only these two words, he could no longer shout out because his tongue fell out.
