Chapter 29, Hongguang Reform, the Dragon Palace is coming
In April of the 16th year of Hongguang's reign, spring was in full bloom. Lingzhou City, outside the magistrate's mansion.
"In accordance with the destiny of Heaven, the Emperor Zhi said: I have been on the throne for ten years. The seas and rivers are clear, and the world is peaceful. The officials govern the country in a clear and bright manner, and the monarch and his ministers are in harmony.
However, from time to time, demons from outside the territory come, the energy changes, the celestial phenomena are abnormal, and the people are troubled and uneasy.
Xu Ping, the magistrate of Lingzhou, has a noble character, and he is very worthy of me. He is strong and firm, and his will cannot be robbed, and his great confusion cannot sway his heart.
Moreover, Xu Ping was knowledgeable and honest, and he was the leader of Wu New School. He was diligent in his work, loved the people, and had outstanding achievements in governance.
I would like to worship him as the Grand Scholar of Pingzhangshijia Secret Pavilion under Tongzhong Shumen, and be in charge of the reform of Wu. All my dear friends should work together to help Prime Minister Xu, and plan for the future of Wu."
"I thank the Lord for your kindness!" Chen Hongyu bowed slightly and accepted the imperial edict.
In an instant, I felt a startling surge of luck coming from the imperial edict. The aura on my body continued to rise, and soon I felt a layer of faint obstruction.
"The way of luck is so terrifying. The blessing of luck brought by the official position of Tong Zhongshu's disciple Ping Zhangshi and Grand Master of Secret Pavilion is so astonishing.
Moreover, among the talents coming from all directions at this time, in addition to the part that transformed the reputation, there is also the part that is directly transformed by the imperial aura."

Life span:24/100
Magical powers: bright eyes and night vision (passive), strong body (passive), transformation of reputation (active), rapid success (active), mouthing the words of heaven (active)...
At this time, due to the blessing of luck, Chen Hongyu realized the changes in his body, coupled with checking the attribute panel, it seemed to outsiders that he was in a daze for a while.
"Xu Xiang? Xu Xiang?" Eunuch Bai saw Chen Hongyu's buoyant expression and knew that he was in a trance, so he couldn't help calling softly.
"I'm sorry, Eunuch Bai, I was lost in thought just now!" Chen Hongyu apologized.
At the same time, he led Eunuch Bai and others towards the mansion.
"I understand, I understand!" Eunuch Bai said with a smile: "When we first took up the position of chief chamberlain, we were much more rude than Mr. Xu just now."
With these words, he took the initiative to tell the embarrassing story of his past, which not only resolved the embarrassment that Chen Hongyu had just been distracted by, but also narrowed the distance between the two.
"By the way, Prime Minister Xu. Now that the situation in Dawu is critical, Prime Minister Xu still needs to take over the affairs of Lingzhou as soon as possible and come with me to Beijing to preside over the reform affairs!"
Hearing this, Chen Hongyu replied: "Eunuch Bai must be a little tired after a long journey.
How about this, I'll host a banquet tonight to welcome you and have a night's rest, and how about we set off as soon as possible tomorrow morning?"
"Then our family would like to thank Mr. Xu very much!" Eunuch Bai looked pleased, and his affection for Chen Hongyu increased a lot.
The three Prime Ministers of Zhengshi Hall, no, it should be said that they are the other three Prime Ministers. After all, there is another Prime Minister Xu in front of me.
Although the other three husbands-in-law always maintained proper etiquette when meeting me, I could still see the contempt they had for me, an eunuch, in their bones.
But this Prime Minister Xu is different. Even though he has become the prime minister and holds a high position of power, he still treats himself with the same respect as before.
The next day, when there was just a glimmer of light in the sky and the sky was still a little hazy, Chen Hongyu had already finished cleaning up.
"Ms. Xu, you also know that the situation is urgent, so we must go to the capital as soon as possible." Eunuch Bai said with a gentle smile.
"It's okay!" Chen Hongyu said with a smile, "I'm just afraid that Eunuch Bai didn't have a good rest last night!"
While they were talking, a group of people were already leading their war horses towards the outside of the city.
At this time, on both sides of the street, torches illuminated the surroundings, and you could see faces with reluctant expressions.
At this time, all the people he saw bowed their heads and saluted.
"We respectfully send you off, Lord Zhizhou!"
Each voice may be old, powerful, gentle, or immature.
However, the admiration and reluctance contained in it are undoubtedly revealed.
"Everyone, please go back!" Chen Hongyu said with a look of sadness and reluctance on his face, cupping his hands towards Sifang Road.
But the people around him remained motionless.
On the contrary, seeing this scene, I became even more reluctant to leave, and even gradually a crowd of people followed behind me, leaving only a wide road ahead.
After leaving the city, you can see the endless crowds in the distance.
"We respectfully send you off, Lord Zhizhou!"
One after another, powerful voices rang out and spread into the distance. At the same time, some people brought some food and drinks to the guard team.
"Youzhi, when did this happen?" Chen Hongyu asked in a deep voice.
Although he has profound cultivation in Confucianism and Taoism, he does not make the mistake of constantly exploring his surroundings.
"Ms. Xu, since the news of your imminent departure spread yesterday evening, people have been coming here, just to see you before you leave.
Many of them stayed in the suburbs all night!"
Although summer is about to begin, the weather this night is not much warmer.
On the side, Eunuch Bai sighed with emotion: "At the beginning of the founding of the Wu Kingdom, there were many officials who had outstanding political achievements and were deeply loved by the people. When they finished their term and resigned, the people spontaneously sent them off and followed them for more than ten miles.
With the current scene like this, I’m afraid these people have followed Mr. Xu out of Lingzhou, let alone ten miles away, and our family believes it!"
At this time, as these people saluted in unison, streams of high-quality talents transformed by fame continued to enter his body, improving his cultivation.
"You guys, how can I have the nerve to trick you in the future?" Chen Hongyu had a lot of thoughts in his heart and secretly made up his mind, "In the future, I will definitely let everyone live a happy and healthy life under the rule of Shenting!"
…
In Ruanhe Dragon Palace and Yangxin Hall, Dragon Lord Ao Guang sat on the main seat and looked at Chen Hongyu below, his expression becoming more and more satisfied.
"Miao'er has a good understanding of people and has found such a good son-in-law for me.
Hongyu is also very good. Distraction can actually cause such a big disturbance in the Confucian world. Now it has become the key for Shenting to invade the Confucian world.
Not bad, not bad!”
For a moment, the look he looked at Chen Hongyu became more and more satisfied.
The father-in-law looks at his son-in-law, and the more he looks at him, the more satisfied he becomes.
"Cough!" Chen Hongyu coughed slightly. He couldn't stand being looked at by Ao Guang all the time!
This old dragon's cultivation level is monstrous, and sometimes a look in his eyes can make him feel oppressed. But seeing his happy expression at this time, Chen Hongyu felt relaxed and not afraid, but his father-in-law kept using this expression.
I still feel a little uncomfortable looking at it.
"Father!" Ao Xin on the side saw Chen Hongyu's discomfort and said coquettishly.
This sound woke Ao Guang up. Ao Guang laughed a few times and said, "Hongyu, it is because of you that I, the Dragon Palace of the East China Sea, take the lead in this invasion.
Now, the reward from the Dragon Lord of the East China Sea has arrived!"
