In the small courtyard, Li Mu formed a seal with his hands and recited the law silently, when his body suddenly disappeared on the spot.
Soon, his figure appeared again.
Li Mu formed a seal and cast a spell again. This time, the upper half of his body was still there, but the lower half disappeared strangely.
After trying a few more times, Li Mu either just entered the invisible state and quickly revealed his body, or he could only hide part of his body. Most of his mana had been consumed. Li Mu looked a little pale and sat down to rest.
Xiaobai ran over, patted his back and squeezed his shoulders, and said: "My dear, don't be impatient, learn slowly, you can always learn."
After advancing to the level of magical power, Li Muneng learned more magical powers. Practitioners fought with magical powers and spells. After completely stabilizing his realm, he began to learn the fourth level of magical powers.
The Taoist book given to him by Su He recorded many magical powers that he could learn at this stage.
Such as walking on water and sitting on fire, swallowing knives and spitting flames, becoming invisible and disappearing, etc.
After thinking about it, Li Mu decided to learn the most useful ones first, starting with invisibility.
When he was still in the lower realms, he could also learn some basic spells. He could summon wind or rain in a small area with ease. When he first learned them, it took him one day or half an hour. Basically, he could do it at once.
Can learn.
However, the spells in the middle three realms are completely different from those in the lower three realms, giving Li Mu the feeling of being confused when he first entered college and moved from elementary mathematics to advanced mathematics.
These magical powers, spells, and mudras are more complex. Even if they are combined with spells and mudras, they still require personal understanding to successfully cast them.
Otherwise, there will be a situation like Li Mu, appearing and disappearing from time to time, only half hidden.
In comparison, Taoism is easier.
If a new Taoism resonates with heaven and earth for the first time, and the founder of Taoism is recognized by heaven and earth, even the fingerprints can be omitted.
For example, Li Mu can make Xiaoyu's Taoist magic disappear with just one thought. If Hengqu's four sentences can also manifest the Taoist magic in the future, the person who performs the magic will not be able to perform it in front of Li Mu.
The premise is that someone can perform it.
Most Taoist techniques can be performed directly with mantras and hand seals, but some of them cannot.
Xiaoyu's Taoism communicates between heaven and earth through resentment. Li Mu does not have her experience, so he cannot use it. Otherwise, when he tells stories in Yunyan Pavilion, it will resonate with heaven and earth and produce a vision that shakes Beijun.
The same is true for Hengqu's four sentences.
It is the supreme pursuit of scholars or court officials. Only when someone is worthy of looking up to heaven and earth, is trusted by the people, and truly has a heart for heaven and earth, and a destiny for the people, can he communicate with heaven and earth through these four sentences.
Except for the time in the palace, Li Mu could no longer resonate with heaven and earth through these four sentences.
Perhaps in Tiandao's view, he has not yet achieved this.
Li Mu practiced the invisibility spell for a while, but still couldn't figure it out. Sensing the familiar smell outside, he quickly walked over, opened the courtyard door, and asked: "Why is Sister Mei here? Does your Majesty have any orders?"
Lord Mei glanced at him and asked, "Can't I come without His Majesty's instructions?"
Li Mudao: "Of course not. Sister Mei can come whenever she wants. You are always welcome here."
Master Mei walked to the yard, looked up and said, "The formation here is well arranged. Even a strong man in the fifth realm will have to spend some effort to break the formation. Is this arranged by you?"
Li Mu smiled sheepishly and did not deny it.
Regarding formations, Li Mu is proud of himself.
No, Master Qianhuan is proud of himself.
Among the ten magic sects, one is called the Forbidden Sect, which is famous for its formations. Master Qianhuan once used his strength to rob the Forbidden Sect's formation book. Coupled with his own super talent for formations, he has the power of Master Qianhuan.
Li Mu, who is remembered by people, if there are enough materials, it is not difficult to set up a large formation that will trap the cave.
Master Mei raised his head to observe the formation. Li Mu said: "Xiao Bai and I are preparing to cook. Would you like Sister Mei to stay and eat together?"
Master Mei shook her head and said: "There is no chance today. Your Majesty asked you to enter the palace."
Li Mu asked doubtfully: "Xiu Mu today, why did your Majesty summon me?"
Master Mei said: "Your Majesty ordered the Zhongshu Province to formulate a policy for the imperial examination within one month. In the past, the imperial court selected officials from the academies. More than a hundred years ago, they were recommended by each school. There is no precedent for the Zhongshu Province.
For reference, I don’t know where to start. It was you who proposed the imperial examination, and His Majesty asked you to guide the officials of Zhongshu Province and formulate the imperial examination policy."
Li Mu was a little regretful. When he was in the Yamen, he was very busy and had to patrol every day. He finally waited until Xiu Mu had time to accompany Xiaobai. He made an appointment with her to go shopping and cook together, but was temporarily recruited by the Queen.
A trace of disappointment flashed in Xiaobai's big bright eyes, and he soon smiled and said: "My dear, please go, I will wait for you at home."
Li Mu noticed her feeling of loss, thought for a moment, and asked Master Mei, "Can I take her with me?"
Mei Da was stunned when he heard this, and looked at Li Mu. Seeing that he didn't seem to be joking, he thought for a while and nodded: "Okay, but when we enter the palace later, we have to follow us and we can't run around."
Xiaobai happily took Li Mu's arm and said, "I will never leave my benefactor."
With Xiaobai following along, the atmosphere became much more lively along the way.
Entering the palace, while holding Li Mu on her arm, she was still looking around. Having grown up in the mountains, she was amazed by the magnificent buildings that could be seen everywhere in the palace.
Zhongshu Provincial Government Office is located in the imperial palace, to the west of Ziwei Hall, also known as West Terrace.
Among the three provinces, the Zhongshu Province is the decision-making body and is in charge of important political affairs. All policies of the Great Zhou Dynasty are formulated from the Zhongshu Province. It can be said to be the think tank of the Great Zhou Dynasty.
To a certain extent, Zhongshu Province determined the path that Great Zhou would take in the future.
This is also the reason why the Queen handed over the formulation of imperial examination policy to Zhongshu Sheng.
When Li Mu was brought to the gate of Zhongshu Province by Master Mei, an official was already waiting there. He first saluted Master Mei and said, "I have met Master Mei."
Master Mei said calmly: "Master Li, I have brought it. You, the Secretary of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China, will treat you well. Do not be negligent and offend. If you delay the important matters of the imperial examination, you, the Secretary of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China, will be responsible for it."
The official smiled bitterly and said: "I don't dare, I don't dare..."
He had witnessed with his own eyes the consequences of offending Li Mu in the main hall. No one wanted to be punished by God. What's more, they were asking for help this time, and they would not offend him.
Zhongshu Province is a confidential place. Even officials from other ministries cannot easily enter. Master Mei went to Xiaobai and said, "I will take you to the front garden. The flowers there are blooming very beautifully."
Li Mu touched Xiao Bai's head and said, "Let Sister Mei play with you first. After I finish my work here, I will go find you."
Xiaobai nodded obediently, and Master Mei took her away.
The official from Zhongshu Province smiled at Li Mu, stretched out his hand and said, "Master Li, please."
Li Mu stepped into Zhongshu Province and asked, "I wonder what I call this lord?"
The official said: "I, Liu Yi, am appointed as a member of Zhongshushe."
Li Mu couldn't help but look at this man a few more times and looked at his appearance. He was only in his thirties, about the same age as Zhang Chun. Li Mu originally thought that he would be the person in charge of writing, but he didn't expect that he was actually from Zhongshushe.
Zhongshu Sheren's official position was only fifth grade, which was the same as Zhang Chun's, but his status in the court was completely different.
The fifth-grade divine capital order is dispensable in the court. If you don't come to the court on any day, no one may notice it.
But the Zhongshu Sheren are the backbone of the Zhongshu Province. Most political affairs in the Great Zhou Dynasty are discussed and decided by the six Zhongshu Sheren. Anyone who can serve as a Zhongshu Sheren, as long as nothing unexpected happens, will be in the court in the future.
A giant of a party.
The two walked into Zhongshu Province and walked through the long corridor on the right when a young man walked out of the government office on the side.
The man had a short beard and was handsome. He looked to be in his early thirties. A few wrinkles at the corners of his eyes showed that he was not as young as he looked.
But the vicissitudes brought by these wrinkles did not reduce his charm. On the contrary, combined with his angular face, it added a bit of temperament to him.
He is also a man, and a handsome man at that. When he saw this middle-aged man for the first time, Li Mu had to admit that this man was very temperamental.
He is also middle-aged, but Zhang Chun is much greasier. There is no trace of greasiness on this person. Walking on the street, he can probably drive some girls and young women crazy.
This kind of temperament belonging to a mature man is something that Li Mu currently does not possess.
Liu Yi stopped, cupped her hands to the man, and said, "Servant Cui."
The man looked at Li Mu next to him and asked, "Who is he?"
As a confidential yamen, the Zhongshu Province is responsible for all important government affairs, so it has stipulated four prohibitions: no leakage, no delay, no violation, no forgetfulness, and outsiders and officials are not allowed to enter. Liu Yi explained: "
This is Mr. Li Muli, whom we invited to jointly formulate policies for the imperial examination."
"Li Mu."
The man glanced at Li Mu, with a strange look in his eyes. Without saying anything else, he turned around and walked into the government office.
The two continued to move forward, and Liu Yi explained: "This is Cui Shilang. He just returned to Shendu yesterday, so he doesn't know Mr. Li."
"Cui Shilang?" Li Mu stopped and asked, "Which Cui Shilang?"
Liu Yidao: "There is only one Cui Shilang in Zhongshu Province, and he is Cui Ming, the left minister of Zhongshu, and the consort of Princess Yunyang."
After Li Mu was silent for a moment, he twitched his lips and said, "Servant Cui, I have admired your name for a long time..."
