Chapter 83 Zhao Duan walked drunk at night, and the Heavenly Master came to the world

"Never." A eunuch whispered:

"Your Majesty has left twelve jars of wine behind since he and Ambassador Zhao climbed the stairs."

Mo Zhaorong's face changed slightly. She knew that Xu Zhen was drinking in Guanwanglou and was a little tipsy.

It's rare to see something like this today.

It would be unthinkable to think of being drunk and taking advantage of that treacherous villain.

Looking upstairs, the cups and plates were in a mess.

"Your Majesty, the wine is all gone." Zhao Duan said while holding the empty wine jar.

It means that this small gathering has come to an end.

Under the lamp, Xu Zhenguan's complexion was a little red, but she let out a deep breath of strong alcohol.

The drunkenness on the Empress's face was visibly dissipated, and her eyes were much clearer.

At this moment, clouds gathered in the sky, covering the bright moon.

"That's all, let's stop here today."

She said calmly, then looked at the little Imperial Guard who was no longer very awake, and said with a smile:

"Your contribution to overthrowing Pei Kaizhi this time cannot be ignored. Have you thought about the reward you want?"

Didn't you say before that I asked you to think about it carefully? Ask me instead... Zhao Duan said:

"Your Majesty, just look at the reward."

His cultivation is advancing steadily, and he does not need resources to supplement it for the time being. He has not yet mastered the flying sword Golden Crow, and he really can't think of anything at the moment.

After the empress regained consciousness, she returned to her usual graceful and dignified appearance and said with a smile:

"Prince Yuan Gong was in the royal study, and he recommended me and asked for a job for you.

With your clever skills, it would be a pity to be placed in the White Horse Eunuch. It just so happens that there is a shortage of "Ji Si" in Zhaoya Lihuatang. I wonder if you are interested? "

What? Zhaoyamen Jisi?

Zhao Duan was excited and full of energy.

I realized that I seemed to be getting promoted!

As far as he knew, the imperial office was headed by Governor Ma Yan and had nine halls under its jurisdiction.

It is named after different flowers, and Lihuatang is one of them.

The post of Jisi is the chief officer at the entrance of the hall. He has a group of Jinyi captains at his command, and he belongs to the rank of military attache.

His character is not high, but his power is terrifying.

Supervisory officials arrested people and ransacked their homes at every turn.

If Ma Yan is the "King of Hell" and Captain Jinyi is the "little ghost", then Ji Si is the mainstay of the Yama Palace.

Zhao Duan fought several times to defeat officials, and his actions overlapped with the functions of imperial edicts.

If you can become a detective, you can do things openly and openly, and you will have more opportunities to make meritorious deeds.

The power in your hands will also be greater.

Of course, correspondingly, the attention it received and the enemies it faced were also unparalleled.

Bang bang... Zhao Duan's heart was beating wildly, but he did not answer immediately. Instead, he considered: "With my qualifications, I'm afraid it would be inappropriate to parachute into the arrest department."

According to his opinion, it would be reasonable to transfer him to a "deputy position".

Direct corrections will inevitably lead to dissatisfaction.

Especially since his reputation is so bad...

Xu Zhenguan glanced at him: "Are you afraid?"

Zhao Duan said seriously:

"The main reason is that I don't want to let go of my colleagues in the White Horse Supervisor, and I still want to work by His Majesty's side."

The envoys of the White Horse Supervisor have the privilege of entering and exiting the palace, but the Chao Yamen Jisi does not. He is weighing the pros and cons.

Slippery... Xu Zhenguan snorted and said: "You will not lose your official position in Baima Prison. You can go to Zhaoya and serve as the Inspector of Police temporarily. If you don't do well, or there is a better candidate, you can come back. ”

Huh, it turns out to be the "Temporary Inspector General", which barely makes sense...

Moreover, as he holds the positions of envoy and chief inspector at the same time, he can advance, attack, retreat or defend. Zhao Duan has no reason to refuse:
"In that case, I am willing to give it a try!"

At this point, he also understood:
What exactly was the gift that Yuan Li promised to give him if he could do things well.

Xu Zhenguan nodded with satisfaction and said:

"However, it's not for nothing that I ask you to be the Chief Inspector. I want you to do one more thing."

"What's the matter?"

"Try to find the Kuangfu society rebels hidden in the imperial office." Xu Zhenguan said coldly.

In the case of Zhuang Xiaocheng, Zhao Duan judged that there might be rebels lurking inside the imperial office.

During these days, Ma Yan tried and searched repeatedly, but to no avail.

Either the judgment was wrong, or it was hidden too deeply.

The empress sighed:

"I trust Ma Yan, but after all, he has been sitting in Zhaoya for too long, and everyone under him has been promoted. It is inevitable that he will be in the game and be confused, and he is not good at scheming..."

What do you mean, so I am just a scheming villain... Zhao Duan is extremely innocent. "And you, as an outsider, may be able to see clearly," Xu Zhenguan said, "If you can uncover the thief, I will give you another benefit."

Zhao Duan said seriously: "I will do my best."

Xu Zhenguan nodded and said:

"I'm tired, so I'll go back to the palace first. You can go home by yourself."

I don't mind staying in the palace... Zhao Du said peacefully, but he also knew it was unrealistic.

Long Nian was even more inappropriate to send him back.

"Your Majesty, please wait."

Seeing Xu Zhenguan was about to leave, he remembered something, took out a porcelain bottle with body temperature from his inner bag, and offered it with both hands:

"Your Majesty has given me so much kindness, but I have nothing to repay, so I have come up with this rose scented dew. Your Majesty can sprinkle it on your clothes, and you will be surrounded by the fragrance of flowers when you walk, sit or lie down."

Xu Zhenguan was startled.

She stared at the porcelain bottle in his hand for a moment, then finally raised her hand and grasped the neck of the bottle with her slender jade fingers.

He didn’t try, he just said:
“I’m determined.”

When Zhao Duan walked down the Tianzi Tower alone.

I saw "Big Bing Tuozi" Mochou leading the crowd forward and glanced suspiciously: "Where is your Majesty?"

Zhao Duan yawned and pointed to the sky: "Your Majesty has returned to the palace first."

As a great monk, the empress has long had the ability to travel through the air and control the wind.

"Come on, come up and pick up the leftovers."

Mo Zhaorong turned around and ordered, and immediately a group of eunuchs swarmed up the stairs, waiting until she wanted to ask more about what His Majesty said to him.

But they found that Zhao Duan had left directly.

The night is quiet, the wind blows and the clouds move, covering the bright moon.

The streets and alleys of the capital also looked dark and cold.

Zhao Duan was full of wine and food. As he walked, he tried to force the smell of alcohol out of his pores, but found that he failed.

His cultivation level is far inferior to that of the empress.

After the alcohol enters the stomach, if it is not expelled for a long time, it will not be forced out again.

When he was upstairs, he was still slightly tipsy. When the cold wind blew, Zhao Duan was shocked to realize that he was really drunk.

"Oops, in my previous life, I served as a drinker for the leader, and trained myself to not get drunk after a thousand drinks, but I have changed my body in this life."

Zhao Duan felt that he had made a mistake.

The energy from drinking was surging, and my mind gradually became hazy. I only relied on my memory and walked towards home.

Before you know it, a snack street appears in front of you, with shops on both sides supporting an intertwined pergola.

Some shops are closed, but some are still open.

The red lanterns hanging under the eaves, the wine flags hanging down, and the elegant aroma made Zhao Duan a little moved.

He stepped into a soup cake shop and threw out a string of copper coins from his sleeve:
"Here comes a bowl of sobering soup!"

Immediately, I heard an old laugh coming from beside me:
"I just have a bowl left here, young master. If you don't mind it, I will give it to you."

Zhao Duan suddenly turned around and opened his eyelids.

In the dim light, an old man could be seen sitting at a square table under the pergola.

He was wearing a very ordinary long robe, but he had a tall figure that was rare in the Yu Dynasty.

One cannot tell his age, but his pure white long beard and long eyebrows show that he has lived a long life.

The face was rosy, and the slightly narrow eyes looked down at him gently, as if examining him.

Zhang Yanyi looked at Zhao Duan.

Zhao Duan also looked at Zhang Yanyi.

At night, in the streets, it was so quiet that you could hear a needle drop.

Finally, Zhao Duan took a step forward and sat across from the Heavenly Master.

He lowered his eyes and stared at the bowl of steaming, perfectly cooked hangover soup in front of him.

"Old sir, are you waiting for me?"

Zhao Duan quietly clenched his fists and dug his nails into his flesh, using the pain to forcefully drive away his drunkenness and regain consciousness from his hazy mind.

The muscles all over his body were tense under his clothes, the warrior's spiritual alarm sounded loudly, and the sea of ​​​​qi roared quietly.

Like facing a formidable enemy.

Zhang Yan smiled and said slowly like an ordinary old man:

"I am a mortal guest, waiting for someone destined to be with you."

Thanks to book friend Yiqi Juecheng for his 500-point reward support!
