However, the family order is a hired one, which is equivalent to the prime minister of the Hou Mansion.
Not only taking care of the affairs in the Marquis Mansion, but also everything in the Yangfu Marquis fiefdom, big and small!
Therefore, this Chen Dao was actually from a noble family and was well-educated.
People like to be close to people who are similar to themselves and hate those who are different. This is how it is in nature!
This made Chen Dao have a good impression of Tao Xiaowu, especially after chatting with Tao Xiaowu for a few words, he became more and more appreciative.
I feel that Tao Xiaowu is simply not a wizard, and does not have that kind of godly temperament at all...
As for Tao Xiaowu's abilities... Chen Dao had no doubts at all.
Xieyun County is not far from Hengyin, and the name of the Wucheng line of wizards is definitely unknown!
Otherwise, the majestic uncle of the Emperor, Marquis Yangfu, would not have thought of coming to Wuli to invite people!
Especially before coming to Wuli, Chen Dao made special inquiries. Knowing the conflict between Wuli and the Yan family in Maonanli, he was even more relieved.
At this moment, he directly said to Tao Xiaowu: "The prince wants to invite the great witch to serve as a wine sacrifice at his house. Please don't refuse!"
The duty of offering wine as a sacrifice originated from ancient times, using French wine to worship ghosts and gods.
Now, it can basically be said that he is in charge of the sacrifices for the nobles!
Tao Xiaowu couldn't help but feel his heart beat loudly, finally knowing in his heart that the sacrifice technique had worked.
If it were just that Marquis Yang Fu asked Tao Xiaowu to do something, then the ghost uncle of Hengting would not be afraid.
However, if Tao Xiaowu served as the wine sacrificer in Yangfuhou's house and became an official hired by the house, then the ghost uncle of Hengting would be a little afraid, right?
Thoughts flashed in his mind, but he sighed and said sincerely: "To be honest, Mr. Chen, I have offended the ghost uncle Hengting. If I go to Yangfu Hou Mansion, I am afraid that I will implicate the Hou.
Mansion!"
After speaking so bluntly, Chen Dao realized more and more that Tao Xiaowu was a sincere gentleman who served the king with loyalty.
The Marquis Mansion's wine ceremony is a very important position, and it is always better for Tao Xiaowu to hold it than a mysterious or strange-smelling wizard, right?
At least it’s much more pleasant to deal with them!
Thinking of this, Chen Dao chuckled and said proudly: "That's it! But you don't have to worry, great witch, hum... it's just...
Hengting is just a ghost uncle, how dare he offend the Emperor's uncle?"
Tao Xiaowu was greatly shocked, although it was already known from the efficacy of the sacrifice technique that Yang Fuhou could help him solve the danger.
I'm just a little worried about whether the powerful people in the world can intimidate the ghost uncle from the underworld?
You must know that the Hengting Ghost Uncle is not only the mountain god of Hengting Mountain, but also the great god in charge of ghosts thousands of miles away.
But I didn't expect that Chen Dao meant that he didn't take the Hengting ghost uncle in his eyes at all!
Is this because Chen Dao is too arrogant and ignorant, or do the powerful people in the world really have such powerful power?
Seeing Tao Xiaowu's confused expression, Chen Dao chuckled and said, "I know that Uncle Ghost of Hengting is a great god.
But so what? Yang Fuhou is the uncle of the emperor and a relative of the imperial court.
Who is the Son of Heaven? The Son of Heaven is ordered by Heaven. He has father, heaven and mother earth. He is the ruler of all directions, controls all directions, and controls ghosts and gods. He is the son of Heaven!
A mere Hengting ghost uncle can be replaced by another ghost and god with an edict from the emperor!"
These words were said with murderous intent.
Tao Xiaowu's heart moved, and he vaguely understood.
The position of Ghost Uncle Hengting is equivalent to an official position, well, it should be said to be a priesthood.
If this priesthood is placed here, it will be the same no matter who does it!
The emperor on earth actually has the power to change ghosts and gods.
Thinking of this, Tao Xiaowu couldn't help but feel excited!
"In that case, I won't be pretentious." Tao Xiaowu said solemnly.
Chen Dao laughed loudly and took out a copy of the book.
Tao Xiaowu bowed and took the letter... This meant that he formally accepted the appointment of the Marquis Mansion and became the Marquis of Yangfu.
…
It was already dark, and a ghost army of at least a thousand people set out from the city of Hengxia with more than ten chariots and drove into the layers of fog.
Within a moment, Wuli was soon seen in the mist.
The whole Wuli seemed to be churning up and down in the mist!
Except for Wuli, everything around seemed to have disappeared.
Whether it's mountains, rocks, vegetation, or anything else, it seems like they've all turned into this gray mist.
"Kill in and leave no chickens or dogs behind!"
The leader of the ghost soldiers, Sima, said coldly.
"Here!"
The soldiers under his command all agreed and formed a neat battle formation to surround him.
However, at this moment, a ray of light suddenly rose, and then out of the thin light, a ghost and god wearing a black robe and a seal ribbon came out.
There was a faint golden light, emitting from the seal bag hanging on the ribbon.
That is the light of the copper seal!
"The witch pottery has been conscripted by Marquis Yangfu as a sacrificial wine. You must not make any mistakes. Go back and report to the ghost uncle of Hengting!" He said and disappeared.
The entire ghost soldier was stunned for a moment, and the face of the ghost soldier Sima who led the army changed again and again, and finally waved his hand: "Withdraw!"
"Going back like this? Uncle Ghost is angry!"
The ghost soldier Sima said: "Yang Fuhou is a relative and the emperor's uncle. Do you still want to disobey the emperor?"
As soon as these words came out, no one dared to say anything.
Not to mention that they don’t dare, even if Ghost Uncle Hengting comes, they won’t dare!
This ghost soldier came in such a furious manner, but retreated so neatly.
In the small building, Tao Xiaowu saw this scene clearly through the light of the sun and moon in the legal domain transformed by the jade jue, and couldn't help but murmur to himself: "The emperor's authority is indeed no trivial matter!"
…
Since it was a little late yesterday, Na Chen Dao rested all night in Wuli.
Early the next morning, Tao Xiaowu followed Chen Dao and set off for Yangfuhou Mansion.
He is a wine-sacrificial minister in the Marquis' Mansion of Yangfu, so he naturally has to serve in the Marquis' Mansion.
Qiu Yuan sent his son Qiu Shan to Tao Xiaowu as a bodyguard.
In addition, Qin Feng and his wife followed and took care of Tao Xiaowu's daily life.
In this era, although technology is backward, the enjoyment of the nobles is not bad at all!
Is it nothing more than manpower?
It is completely normal for higher-level nobles to have more than ten or dozens of servants serving them.
In winter, you have heating, and there are beautiful maids who specialize in warming your bed, a special heater, and servants who take care of you 24 hours a day.
You have air conditioners and fans in the summer, ice cubes stored in the winter, and maids who follow you around to fan you.
For someone like Tao Xiaowu, who was only accompanied by two or three people, it could be said to be very shabby.
But it doesn’t matter, as the Marquis’ Mansion offers wine, when you arrive at Yangfu Marquis’ Mansion, someone will naturally dispatch maids and servants to serve you!
Yangfuhou is a county prince with a settlement of 2,000 households, which is about the size of a small county.
