Chapter 184(2/3)
Wu Zhao's words sounded like they were meant for Ning Chen, but in fact they were meant for the Marquis of Ding.
Wu Zhao still knows what kind of character Ning Chen is.
Wu Zhaocai didn't believe that Ning Chen would be willing to take such a risk if Marquis Dingguo wasn't directing and calculating behind the scenes.
Therefore, Wu Zhao must clearly say something like this here.
At the same time, I expressed my attitude. This is the first and last time.
However, Wu Zhao certainly did not dare to directly appoint a prince, so he could only criticize Sang and Huai.
Marquis Dingguo did not think of him, but said directly and calmly: "It is true that I did not think carefully about this matter.
But when things get urgent, I really can’t make too many plans.”
Marquis Dingguo has expressed his stance, so Wu Zhao will certainly not continue to discuss the matter.
Marquis Dingguo's statement like this could be regarded as giving Wu Zhao a lot of face.
At this time, it’s time to reflect Ning Chen’s emotional intelligence.
"Xiao Zhao, the Marquis did this just to vent his anger on me. After all, last time, the Western Regions attacked me directly at my door.
If it weren't for my great fortune, I might have died last time.
Xiao Zhao, you know that I am not the kind of person who swallows his anger."
Wu Zhao interrupted Ning Chen and said, "What happened this time is in the past. If anything similar happens in the future, you must tell me."
"If anything like this happens in the future, I will definitely tell you as soon as possible." Ning Chen also assured Wu Zhao.
After saying this, Ning Chen told Wu Zhao about asking Cao Xing to write a memorial for him.
After listening to Ning Chen's words, Wu Zhao also felt that Ning Chen was a little too hasty in this matter.
Wu Zhao faced courtiers every day and knew more than Cao Xing.
This time Ning Chen has indeed achieved another great feat.
But sometimes continuous meritorious deeds may not be a good thing.
Ning Chen comforted Wu Zhao: "Xiao Zhao, you don't have to think so much. The more meritorious service I make on the front line now, the stronger your back will be.
As for what other people say, do you think I care what they say.
You just need to announce the results of these battles, and those stupid people will say whatever they want.
I will naturally ask my historians to write them down."
When Ning Chen said this, Wu Zhao still felt very warm in his heart.
"Okay, I will do as you say, but I also want to explain to you in advance that it may be difficult for you to directly crown the king." Wu Zhao also said frankly to Ning Chen.
Ning Chen said without thinking: "Xiao Zhao, I'm not doing this just to be crowned king. I don't care at all whether you're crowned king or not.
As long as you can stay behind and subdue them firmly, my sacrifice will not be in vain."
There was a brief silence on Wu Zhao's side, and then he said softly: "Thank you."
Marquis Dingguo, who had been 'peeping at the screen', looked at Ning Chen's performance and drank the wine in his glass with a smile.
Now that the casual talk is over, it’s time to get down to business.
"I still have a question here. I would like to ask the teacher, Mr. Hou and Prince Jing for advice."
Without waiting for a response, Ning Chen continued to talk to himself: "I have been stuck at the fourth level of martial arts and Confucianism for a long time. I want to know how to break through next."
Originally, Ning Chen was asking for advice, but Ning Chen's words of "stuck for a long time" instantly made the three of them lose their mood to give Ning Chen advice.
You have only been practicing for a few years, and you have already reached the peak of the Double Fourth Stage.
And if you have only stayed at level four, you will be stuck for a long time.
You have to know how many people spend their whole lives and their highest achievement is only the fourth grade.
"Teacher, Marquis Dingguo, Prince Jing, are you still there?"
Ning Chen waited for a long time and there was no response, so Ning Chen had to call out again.
This chat group is good for everything except that you can't see whether the other party is offline.
"There are many records about this in the royal family's collection of books. I can order someone to send you a blue bird pass later." Marquis Dingguo and the others did not respond to Ning Chen. Instead, Wu Zhao took the initiative to respond to Ning Chen.
Wu Zhao responded to Ning Chen. At this time, Kong Ping and the others could not pretend not to see it.
Kong Ping, in particular, has always regarded himself as Ning Chen's teacher.
How could Ning Chen be allowed to become self-taught at such a critical time?
"The collection of books in the royal family is not suitable for Ning Chen."
Kong Ping first rejected Wu Zhao's idea, and then expressed his own idea.
"Ning Chen, your situation is different from anyone else's.
Since the time of the Confucian sages, although there have been some Confucian and martial practitioners, there have been very few who have reached your level.
So if you want to be promoted to the third rank, I think it is best to be promoted at the same time, otherwise if it is just a single promotion, it may affect the promotion of another one."
Kong Ping's words made Ning Chen stunned for a moment.
Promotion at the same time?
Do we also need to include our own Baijiadao?
"You don't need to include Baijiadao. You are the Taoist master of Baijiadao, and the promotion method of Baijiadao is different from that of Confucianism and Wushu. The two are not the same."
If this is the case, Ning Chen can feel more at ease.
After all, if you are promoted at the same time, your reputation points will be consumed too much.
The key is that Ning Chen doesn't have so many reputation points in his hands now.
"Teacher, why do Confucianism and Wushu need to be promoted at the same time?" Ning Chen asked Kong Jijiu.
Kong Jijiu said: "The third level of Confucianism is called Li Ming, and the third level of martial arts is called Longmen. You should already know this.
You should also know the specific promotion changes between the two.
But there's one thing you may not know.
That is the third level of Confucianism and Martial Arts. The biggest change is that the connection between you and the holy way has become closer.
In other words, only when you reach the third level can you truly step into the holy path.
The holy ways are mutually exclusive. If you step into the third level of the Confucian holy way, it will be difficult for you to step into the martial arts.
The reverse is the same.
As for Baijiatao, because you are the Taoist master, you cannot be kicked out of Baijiadao.
So I won’t be affected by such rejection.”
After listening to Kong Jijiu's explanation, it makes sense.
But it's a bit more difficult to be promoted to the third level of Confucianism and Martial Arts at the same time.
No matter which holy path you practice, it is very difficult to reach the third level.
After all, after reaching the third level, it is a true transformation.
It's almost like a god.
The third level of martial arts already has the ability to regenerate severed limbs.
The third level of Confucianism has the ability to speak and follow the rules.
Although the fourth grade of Confucianism is also acceptable, you still have to talk about the fourth grade of Confucianism.
The third level of Confucianism can cast spells with just a look without speaking.
To put it simply, the forward shaking motion of casting a spell is removed.
Although it may seem like there is only one less forward rocking action, this action can already determine life or death.
"If the teachers are at the same time, does it have to be on the same day or at the same time?" Ning Chen continued to ask Kong Jijiu.
The answer Kong Jijiu gave was very clear: "The same moment."
"If you wait a little longer, there may be repulsion between the Holy Paths."
Ning Chen was even more excited after hearing what Kong Jijiu said.
Are the time requirements so strict?
It also has to be the same moment.
This time point is really difficult to grasp.
After all, this is a promotion to the third level, not from the ninth level to the eighth level.
The difficulty itself is already very high, and you also need to grasp the time firmly.
This is simply hell level difficulty.
