204 Clinging and Sectarian Dispute(1/2)

"Live people go here..."

The eunuch led the way in front with a flattering expression.

Zhou Jing was carrying his hands on his back, and Shi Shiran followed him all the way out of the palace.

In front of the palace gate, the eunuch bowed and said funny:

"A real person is favored by the government and will surely make a fortune in the future. Our family will congratulate you here."

"I just follow the times."

Zhou Jing nodded and responded casually.

When the eunuch left, Zhou Jing glanced at the high palace wall and his eyes flashed.

I just talked with the emperor and fooled him. Finally, I won the trust of the emperor and clinged to the imperial power.

He had accepted the invitation and planned to join Sitianjian as the chief clerk. Although he was not a big official, he had a special status and had a profound knowledge. He could refine longevity pills and could connect with the emperor, which was equivalent to being able to make suggestions at any time.

Very few people in the court have such treatment and have the potential to become a favorite minister of the emperor.

After all, in this era, the size of the official position is not as important as being favored by the emperor.

Putting aside the nonsense of the immortal entrusting his dreams, his magical powers were amazing, and he hit the needs of the official family, so he naturally became loved by the emperor.

‘Bill has now entered the vision of the power center. In the future, he can get a look in the court to inquire about the changes in the decision-making of the upper class, and influence the emperor and the court officials... And there is an excuse to collect the essence of the five elements and the clear energy of heaven and earth to refine the Purple Palace Eternal Life Pill. With the approval of the emperor, I can go out and walk around as soon as I report it. Being a chief clerk cannot limit my freedom.’

Zhou Jing pondered inwardly.

This apostle has become an eternal apostle and is more free to act. In addition to obtaining profits and exploring the world, he also assists Chen Feng and further inquire about information.

The emperor of this dynasty was stupid and believed in metaphysics, which provided convenience for him to cling to the imperial power.

He did not intend to reverse the emperor's concept and make the emperor wise, which was difficult to do. Similarly, he had no plan to kill the emperor now.

After all, the true ruler of the dynasty was never the emperor alone, but the powerful families in the courts and local areas. If the emperor violated the interests of this class, it would be difficult to implement the government orders.

According to the laws of the feudal era, the longer the dynasty, the weaker the control of imperial power. Except for a few founding emperors and reviving kings, the other things are just the same, and the more they go backwards, the more empty they become.

As long as the world does not change, the emperor will be ruined and the prince will be supported to the throne, and the world will not be in chaos. Even without the prince, there are many royal relatives in Daxia, and there is always a way to suit the ministers' wishes. It is more in line with the interests of all parties to sit on the throne, and it is best to be a young puppet.

Under the current situation, assassination of an emperor is more of a symbolic meaning, with limited turmoil and will not cause too much chaos. According to Chen Feng's goal, it is not enough to just die an emperor. Massacre of the powerful families that truly ruled is a major reshuffle. All those who have been in power for hundreds of years have been cut off and all the officials have been trampled on. Don't live, please help your predecessors and wait for future generations to appear, and change some fresh blood to the stage.

Since he was by the emperor, the emperor's life was beyond his control. He could do it at any time, and it would not be too late to assassinate him until the time was right... After all, only by slaughtering this fish at the right time can you achieve twice the result with half the effort.

Before this, let’s first cling to the imperial power and lurk in the minions…

Zhou Jing left as his mind moved.

...

At the same time, in the Yangyi Hall in the palace, the emperor asked Yin Nan to leave and stay alone.

"The immortals hold dreams, the Purple Palace Eternal Life Pill..."

The emperor murmured to himself, with a little fun hidden in his eyes.

The immortal said that he had touched his itchy spot, and the Purple Palace Eternal Life Pill also made him long for it...

But he has been in power for many years and has heard all kinds of good things. He feels that this is more like a rhetoric that Yufeng Zhenren deliberately pleases him and uses to cling to him.

He saw the magical powers of Yufeng Zhenren and found that this was indeed a master of enlightenment, but it did not mean that he really believed everything. It seemed normal on the surface, but in fact he still retained doubts.

However, the emperor did not want to expose the truth and falsehood, but directly gave him a title and an official, reflecting his favoritism to Yufeng Zhenren and expressing his importance.

Because he can get favor if he can give it, there is almost no cost to him.

As the emperor, he didn't mind showing who he favored, and he didn't mind letting this master cling to him and gaining benefits under his own banner.

He only cares about the result, no matter whether it is true or not, he has delegated power to let this Yufeng Zhenren refine the Zifu Eternal Life Pill, and it is naturally the best thing to do.

If it cannot be done, punishment is just a matter of one sentence. The favor given can be taken back at any time.

Moreover, in the emperor's opinion, Yufeng Zhenren was a master who could use it for himself, checking and balancing the Sitianjian and court officials, and hitting these people.

At the same time, this person will be checked and balanced by Si Tianjian and the court officials, so if you want to stand firm, you can only hold your back, who is a useful person who comes to your door.

The simple technique of killing two birds with one stone and checking and balance are just a trick that the emperor can do casually.

"If it is true, then it's best."

The emperor's eyes flashed and he murmured to himself.

...

The next day, Ye Mansion.

The eunuchs and eunuchs who were ordered by the emperor came straight to the door, read the imperial edict in public, and appointed Zhou Jing as "Shenxiao Fengling Zhenren", and invited him to the court to serve as an official, so that he could offer longevity pills for a long time.

The news that Zhou Jing received the emperor's title spread quickly. In less than a day, the whole city was in a sensation!

"Shenxiao Fengling Zhenren" became his official title, but everyone was still used to calling Yufeng Zhenren in private.

The nature of the imperial certification is completely different from that of the people. From high-ranking officials to peddlers and pawns, everyone understands that the real person has gained the trust of the emperor and will be prosperous in the future!

For a moment, the threshold of the Ye family was almost broken.

Whether they knew or were unfamiliar, the dignitaries came to visit again, recreating the grand occasion when Zhou Jing first made his debut several months ago, even more than that.

Although in their eyes, the chief clerk of Sitianjian was just a small official, the emperor's favor was not concealed. Yufeng Zhenren had a promising future and deserved their great fanfare to deepen their friendship.

Ning Tian's prefect Zhao Xing'an also came back to the door, saying that he had submitted a memorial to recommend it to the emperor and was shameless to seek credit for it. Zhou Jing could only be right.

However, although he was favored by many people, he also aroused the hostility of Qingliu.

Originally, the reputation of Yufeng Zhenren was mostly among the people, so Qingliu didn't care much about him, but now he showed signs of clinging to the imperial power, Qingliu immediately changed his attitude and angrily denounced this as a deception of the holy listen and a disaster to the court.

Because Si Tianjian supports the construction of the Emperor's View, Qingliu has always been hostile to Si Tianjian, and it is a daily routine to scold him every day. Zhou Jing joined it, which made Qingliu even more hatred and directly attached the name of "demonic Taoism" to Zhou Jing.

But no matter how Qingliu scolds, it cannot stop the more realistic people from competing for the incest, making the Ye family crowded.

At the same time, the emperor issued an imperial edict that the Ye family had made contributions and rewards for serving Yufeng Zhenren.

The Ye family was stunned by the sudden surprise, and then realized what kind of opportunity this was. Ye Taigong was so excited that he almost couldn't stand steadily, and suppressed his excitement.

Ye Shunzhong, who invited Zhou Jing, was extremely grateful for his decisiveness at that time.

Although the Ye family has not been considered a family member to rise to heaven over the past few months, they have gained money and become more prosperous.

Now he has received a reward from the emperor, which is a great honor for the sky. All other wealthy merchants in the city have been compared. Now his Ye family is the well-deserved richest man in Ning Tian!

What the real person said, "Give the Ye family a fate method" has come true!

Ye Shunzhong made great contributions. During the days when Zhou Jing stayed, his voice at home was getting higher and higher, and no one could shake his identity as a successor. His gratitude to Zhou Jing was like a surging river.

This imperial edict caused chaos from Ning Tian Mansion. After the news spread, Miao Xuzi also came to the door and asked about the reason.

...

Ye Mansion, living room.

Miaoxuzi and Xuanyuanzi visited.

After the two of them asked as usual, Miaoxuzi couldn't wait to ask questions:

"The real person actually got summoned by the emperor and wanted to become an official in the court? What's going on?"

"That's right. The emperor came to the small residence of Ningtian Mansion. After hearing my reputation, he invited me to the palace for a lecture. Then he took a fancy to my skills and asked me to refine elixirs for him, so I agreed..."

Zhou Jing briefly talked about the process.

After hearing this, Miaoxuzi looked confused and couldn't help but say:

"A real person is a master of Taoism. Why do you want to go to the turbid court? It is a fair and dirty person in his name..."

He said it tactfully, but the meaning was also expressed.

I thought you were a master of fame and fortune, but I didn’t expect that you, a rich man with big eyebrows and big eyes, was also a vulgar person.

Zhou Jing didn't care and said casually:

"I was originally a cultivator in the mountains and fields. I found that the secret of heaven had appeared. Then I entered the world and came to Ningtian Mansion to search for the secret of heaven. It was not long ago that I discovered that the secret of heaven should be the emperor, so I answered the invitation of the emperor and stayed in the court."

When Miaoxuzi heard this, he had nothing to say.

It was because of Tianyuan's great plan that he came to make friends with Yufeng Zhenren. Maybe the real person decided to cling to the imperial power because of some kind of magic.

Whether it is true or false, it is already a waste of time.

Besides, Qingliang Mountain is a Taoist sect in the world, and it does not exclude the powerful and powerful people. It is also a good thing for Yufeng Zhenren to obtain the Holy Scroll.

"That's about getting started..."

Miao Xuzi asked a question intentatively and was more concerned about this.

Zhou Jing smiled: "I have made a decision and am willing to join Qingliangshan to be honest. I have already started this matter. The emperor will issue an order soon to let Qingliangshan take me into the wall and preach the Dharma to me..."

When Miaoxuzi heard that he agreed, he was delighted at first.

But after listening for a while, he suddenly realized something was wrong.

The emperor will issue an order to order Qingliangshan to accept you as his disciple?

Why does this look like Qingliangshan obey orders?
To be continued...
