Chapter 926 Novice in Officialdom


Chapter 926: Official Novice

Zhang Xuezhou has no interest in entering Wenying Pavilion to recite the "Grave Sutra". After all, he can recite the "Grave Sutra" casually.

But after thinking about Dong Zhongshu who went to Shouchun City to solve the puzzles of "Zai You" and other ancient books, Zhang Xuezhou felt that there was no problem in going there.

He has no need for the Tomb Scripture, but he has some need for other classics of Wenying Pavilion.

“But I am still anxious to go to Chang’an City to be an official.” Zhang Xuezhou declined slightly: “I’m afraid I don’t have time to go to Huainan with you!”

"What kind of official do you want to be? I'm telling you, being an official means being a loser. You'll have endless official errands to do in your life. This kind of thing is annoying." Jinchang waved his hand and said, "Besides, the little money you get from being an official is nothing. We Just pick it up in the Beast Control Sect. You can't get this even if you have been an official for ten years. "Some money!"

"Although what you said is very reasonable..."

"You are still afraid that I will harm you. If you don't talk about the subtleties of the tomb sutra, you won't know it even if you don't learn it. Damn it, I will help you get some money this time to reassure you," Jinchang said.

“Actually, I’m not here entirely for money this time!”

“Oh?”

"I have a fellow countryman named Zhang Cigong. You also met him in Shouchun City. His name was Ruan Qigong at that time, and he drove our carriage. Do you still remember this person?"

"Remember!"
< br>"He has the key to the secret vault of the Beast Control Sect on him. I feel that he may also be looking for opportunities among these people," Zhang Xuezhou said.

"Does he have the key to the secret vault?"

"He used to be a disciple of the Beast Control Sect. It is naturally more convenient to do these things, and he finally obtained the key. You can help him when the time comes. , lest he lose his life," Zhang Xuezhou said.

"This matter is no problem!"

Jinchang responded with a strange expression.

Being able to obtain the key to the secret vault of the Beast Control Sect, Jinchang would not believe it at all if the death of Su Fang, the leader of the Beast Control Sect, had nothing to do with Zhang Xuezhou and others.

He thought about Zhang Xuezhou, then Zhang Cigong, and then focused on Dong Zhongshu, having roughly guessed the outline of the whole thing.

It was Su Fang's bad luck that he actually turned his head on someone like Dong Zhongshu.

Whenever Su Fang changes his opponent, Su Fang will not die.

"This is fate, bad luck!"

Jinchang complained to Su Fang in his heart.

Originally, Su Fang was also a hero, and occupying the Beast Control Sect was a solid foundation. However, when Su Fang asked for cooperation from the court, he thought too highly of himself and asked for too much.

The imperial court needs the Beast Controlling Sect to tame and raise horses for military use, but it does not mean that the Beast Controlling Sect cannot do this job without the Beast Controlling Sect.

The consequence of pushing the envelope too far is that the court wants to replace someone to do this kind of work, instead of letting the Beast Control Sect repeatedly suppress it.

After seeing the extremely majestic and luxurious sect buildings of the Beast Control Sect, Jinchang could not help but shake his head.

No matter how much advantage the Beast Control Sect took in the transaction with the imperial court, they were all sent back when the imperial court counted them. Now there is only one secret treasury left.

As long as words like secret vault, secret pavilion, and secret room are involved, there are only a few big places, and the corresponding collections will be stored in a rare way.

Or inherited items, famous and ancient paintings, fine gold and silver, or the bone vessels mentioned by Li Shaojun.

Everyone has different needs and there is no conflict.

“What does he want?”

Zhang Xuezhou’s money, Li Shaojun’s bone tools, and the inheritance of Jinchang’s Beast Control Sect, but there were four people present.

He asked Xiang Rong Tianding, which made Rong Tianding open his mouth.

"Let me get some money too," Rong Tianding said in a dull voice.

"If you hadn't learned magic tricks and voice-changing ventriloquism, it would indeed be more suitable for you to play the mute!"

Listening to Rong Tianding's young voice and looking at the incompatible old image, Jinchang couldn't help but be shaken. shook his head.

He made a gesture towards everyone, then wandered away and dived into the shadows again.

"Cousin, is this person very powerful?"

"He is just like the Master!" "I understand!"

Rong Tianding asked a question, which prompted Zhang Xuezhou to make an analogy.

With Jinchang investigating, he was relieved at this time. He didn't have to get involved in the battle of the Beast Control Sect at all. He only had to wait for the news from Jinchang.

"Jinchang...tsk tsk...this guy is a bit interesting!"

Li Shaojun thought for a while. He felt that Jinchang was very similar to himself, and whoever caused the other headaches anyway.

It was a rare occasion when Jinchang asked for help in a nice voice. Li Shaojun felt that Jinchang might also fall into Zhang Xuezhou's hands, and even Jinchang himself might not be able to react.

This change and sense may not be obvious at the moment, but once the cultivation and status of the two are similar, Jinchang will feel like he is losing weight when cooperating with Zhang Xuezhou.

For example, only now, when Zhang Xuezhou was talking to Jinchang, did he reveal that he came to Niutoushan Beast Control Sect to find someone, and that Zhang Cigong, whom Zhang Xuezhou knew, had the key to the secret vault.

But this guy has never revealed anything before, and he has not let Li Shaojun get the handle. Otherwise, the cooperation between the two parties will definitely not be the current model.

After thinking for a while, Li Shaojun found a wooden stick to poke at the ant nest to kill time.

With the key, Jinchang's ability to sneak into the shadows, and Su Fei, the young sect leader, to show the direction, he no longer needed to guess the next process.

Whenever Jinchang finds someone, they will undoubtedly be the beneficiaries of the secret treasury of the Beast Control Sect.

"Cousin, these people even kill officials. Will it be in danger for you to become an official in the future?"

Li Shaojun poked at the ant nest, while Rong Tianding gradually stopped listening. With the ringing of bells and the sound of fighting, one can't help but feel that being an official in the imperial court is a high-risk profession.

"I will be an official...don't worry, I will definitely not be such an official!"

Zhang Xuezhou thought about joining the imperial court for a while, and he couldn't help but feel that he really had to find a leisurely position to climb up, lest someone inadvertently fail to improve his luck and be stabbed.

For example, he is definitely not suitable for positions such as captain and general, and positions that worry about things such as county guard and county magistrate are not suitable for him.

And he wants to flatter the new emperor.

When Zhang Xuezhou thought about it, he couldn't help but feel that there were few official positions suitable for him.

This is not only to be free and easy, but also to become an important official of the imperial court. Even if he becomes the emperor himself, he will not be able to give such a necessary and necessary position to the people below him.

"You have to ask Master Dong about being an official. He must know about this!"

Zhang Xuezhou thought for a while and felt that there was no problem in going to Shouchun City before returning to Chang'an City.

This is not just a matter of sharpening the knife and chopping wood, but taking the wrong direction in this matter is more troublesome than a woman marrying the wrong person.

He didn’t want to work too hard to get into the core of the imperial court, nor did he want to lose his life in a daze, nor did he want to spend too much time on official positions in the imperial court.

Zhang Xuezhou had so many demands that any emperor would have to criticize him if he knew of his thoughts.

But Zhang Xuezhou felt that he did not seek salary, control of power, or promotion or fortune. He only sought to cling to a little bit of luck. His requirements could not be lower.

He thought for dozens of seconds, and then whispered his thoughts to Rong Tianding.

"If you do it without any desire, don't let the court think you are spies of the Immortal Court!"

Zhang Xuezhou and Rong Tianding muttered in low voices, but Li Shaojun could listen if he wanted to. clear.

After listening for a long time, he felt that Zhang Xuezhou’s idea was a recipe for death.

Only people from other forces would be so lacking in desire but still want to gain important positions in the court.

If Zhang Xuezhou had not behaved greedily and lacked the logic of a normal person being an official, Zhang Xuezhou would have been eliminated very early.

“Is he really a person from the Immortal Court Sect who carries out secret orders from the lower world?”

Zhang Xuezhou’s concept of being an official is terrible, and he can be called a novice in officialdom.

Li Shaojun felt that the emperor could not trust such a person, but thinking about Zhang Xuezhou's possible true identity, he couldn't help but give a few more reminders.
