This Martial Saint is too generous.

Chapter 207: The Real Holy Land of Heaven and Earth: The Imperial Palace
The two chatted for a while.

Qin Jinyang was also shocked. This Mu Zhihe was also a fierce man who had washed the clock once.

Obviously still young.

Of course, a few years older than myself.

Qin Jinyang realized another problem.

Fang Shouzhi and Mu Zhihe are about the same age, one or two years older than Jiang Xingyang.In a few years, will Jiang Xingyang also be a bell-washer?

This is the scary place.

Backed by nobles and with resources in hand, they will always be one step ahead.

Perhaps at a certain age, the descendants of the nobles are of the same rank as ordinary people, and those ordinary people will even have an illusion... The descendants of the nobles are nothing but that, I am the same as him, and even better than him.

Because you surpassed him all by your own efforts, you were even complacent, and laughed in your heart that Xungui could only rely on his father, once he left his father, the so-called descendants of Xungui would be nothing at all.

But in a few years, you meet by chance, and someone else is already in heaven.

At this time, you can realize the truth of the world, which is an eternal nightmare of being pressed in the mud.

In the past, the honorable descendants you didn't even look down on have already left you far, far, far away.

"Ha ha!"

Qin Jinyang laughed at himself.

In fact, he should have understood this simple truth a long time ago.

When you were a child, you and the rich second generation were both in kindergarten, and you were both calculating that one plus one equals two, and you even calculated faster.

In fact, it's not because you are smarter, it's just because the questions are so simple.

You laugh at him as a coward.

In elementary school, you are still studying step by step, doing homework, and watching cartoons.

The rich second generation has already hired one-on-one tutoring, and they are learning their specialties and training in skiing.

When you were in elementary school, you were still able to do a job with ease. In the top ten of your grade, you used your standard grades to slap your face, proving that your IQ crushed the rich second generation.

You feel even more contemptuous.

But slowly, in junior high school, things were a little different.

You played the high school entrance examination, and the high school in your mind is the holy place for the examination. Once you enter, your parents will be honored.

But the rich second-generation classmates who are not as good as your grades are actually exempted from the entrance examination.

When you take the college entrance examination, your grades are even more of a joke.

You failed the ranking of the highest school by a few points.

You inquired that the little friend from the kindergarten who used to have already taken a foreign status, and sat in the campus you dreamed of with a special status.

You are not willing to go to an ordinary university, you grit your teeth and repeat for a year.

Heaven pays off, you succeeded, you were admitted to that school.

You happily move to the eight-person dormitory, turn on the cool electric fan, and go to your rich second-generation classmate to catch up on the old days and tell him that the Lord does not believe in reincarnation, and only believes in rewards from heaven.

You went to the dormitory of the rich second generation, and the other party was a single room with bathroom and air conditioner.

The heavenly rewards you believe in are swallowed up in your stomach like Huang Lian.

You can only work harder, because you are inferior and dull, and you don't understand anything except learning.

You secretly like a goddess...

Your goddess secretly likes the rich second generation who know skiing, hip-hop, piano, finance, and fashion.

One day you open Moments and see your goddess having breakfast with the rich second generation...

after graduation……

Hehehe... Let alone mention it.

Far away.

In fact, cultivation is not a reason.

At the first rank, the people in the Jianghu are not necessarily inferior to the descendants of the nobles of the imperial court.

Unfortunately, that is only kindergarten level.

When it comes to the third grade, it is a routine operation for the heirs of noble nobles to wash the bell.

But in Helan Villa, Xu Wenqing, who was so honorable, did not choose to wash the bell.

It is impossible for Xu Yuansheng not to know about clock washing, but what he expects from Xu Wenqing in his heart is the fifth grade, nothing more.

Just like you go to a big city by taking an exam, the goal you set for yourself is to pay a mortgage down payment. For you, you are already a winner in life.

And the full house that you have dreamed of all your life is something they were born with.

Seemingly the same road, in fact, the scenery in the eyes is completely different.

In the wild world of rivers and lakes, the fifth rank may already be a giant, an incredible existence.

But in the eyes of the nobles of the imperial court, the fifth rank is the real beginning.

……

In fact, the imperial court was more involved.

The pressure on this group of nobles is far greater than that of ordinary people.

Perhaps, this is also a kind of luck weight.

According to Mu Shidi, if you want to be an official in the court, you must first have cultivation.

At this point, you have alternate qualifications and can wait for openings.

The stronger the warrior, the more disease-free and disaster-free, but the dynasty is so big, it is difficult to vacate a job, and how many people are crowded to fight.

The power struggle in the imperial court is serious, and sometimes it is forced.

If you want to have the right to speak in the court, you have to win over candidate officials to join you, and you have to let others hold real power.

There are three possibilities for job creation.

First, siege cities and plunder land, open up territories and expand territories.

Second, the predecessor retired and returned home, and the predecessor died unexpectedly.

Third, the emperor opened up new yamen, such as the Skynet Division.

Among them, the possibility of dying by accident is mysterious again.

In short, this group of people took the most benefits in the world, but the word "Lee" is so sharp, like a spear, pushing them, they dare not have a moment of leisure.

If you are not alive, you are the one who dies unexpectedly.

A person who manipulates power is not a piece of meat in the eyes of others.

Some officials want to protect themselves wisely and live in peace, but it is not that simple.

The imperial court has a review system for officials.

This investigation is not simply pleading for the people, being clean and honest.

Which side to stand on is a major matter that determines life and death.

The complexity of the court can only be described as frightening every step of the way.

……

After bidding farewell to Mu Shidi, Qin Jinyang wandered around for a while, preparing for dinner.

At this time, two young eunuchs, one tall and one short, ran over with food boxes, smiling.

"I've seen Young Master Qin!"

The short eunuch's smile is very comfortable, it's the kind that pleases you but is not particularly flattering.

Like a spring breeze.

Great.

Being able to survive in the imperial city, even a small eunuch cannot be underestimated.

Just relying on the eunuch's smile, he is the best dog wherever he goes.

"Eunuch Lao is here!"

Qin Jinyang took out two gold leaves casually.

Ever since he got benefits from Eunuch Han, Qin Jinyang has maintained the habit of rewarding every eunuch.

"Don't dare!"

The two eunuchs hurriedly shook their heads.

"You two, don't feel too small."

Not to mention, Qin Jinyang directly filled the arms of the two of them.

Sure enough, the two of them smiled happily, and their expressions made people feel more comfortable.

In fact, in the imperial city, the two eunuchs may not really lack a gold leaf, but they lack a kind of identity recognition and respect.

Eunuchs are born to be looked down upon.

The more you look down on them, the more they like to trip you up and make you uncomfortable.

You can give more or less silver, but as long as you give, you are your own.

People who are greedy for money are not necessarily greedy for money.

Ironic.

……

[You give the eunuch silver, which is also a gift of favor, rewarding 200 potential points. 】

……

"Today's meal was ordered by Eunuch Han to smuggle out of the imperial dining room...Shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, please don't say anything. In this yard, you are the only one to enjoy the imperial meal."

The short eunuch turned his head and gestured to the tall eunuch beside him with his eyes.

Seeing this, Eunuch Gao nodded, turned around and ran to the door, where he was guarding like a guard.

The short eunuch led Qin Jinyang into the guest room and arranged the dishes one by one.

hiss!
When the food box was opened, a scent came over his face, Qin Jinyang even felt a little dizzy.

Very pure true essence.

The aura spreading from the dishes is even stronger than some medicinal herbs.

The key is to have good color and fragrance.

This is still takeaway, if it's dine-in, what's the deal?
"Mr. Qin, these are the dishes that the imperial chef secretly shoveled out from the royal meals of the princes. He dare not bring them out on weekdays... Eunuch Han heard that Mr. Qin is at the post station, so he risked his beheading."

The eunuch said quietly.

"Thank you Eunuch Han for me!"

Qin Jinyang nodded with a solemn expression.

Perhaps, the little eunuch was a little exaggerated. After all, if Eunuch Han dared to luck, he would definitely be able to guarantee safety.

Should I say it or not, Eunuch Han is really good at dealing with him.

There is love, and I really remember myself.

Under the urging of the little eunuch, Qin Jinyang began to taste the same set meal for the prince.

"Eat a little faster...the night is long and the dream is full!"

The little eunuch urged.

"it is good!"

Qin Jinyang nodded and began to gobble it up.

It's a bit of a waste of food.

The meat...extremely tender.

Vegetables...extremely crispy.

Shrimp...extremely elastic.

As for taste, it's not that important anymore.

As the dishes came into the mouth, Qin Jinyang's chest was hot, and the true energy in his dantian began to rise by leaps and bounds, and unexpectedly burst out.

Although the effect is very different from that of Da Jiangzhou, this is only one of the three meals, and it is an ordinary meal for the princes.

Eating like this every day, is it still amazing?
"Young Master Qin, here is some wine... I am greedy, and I risked my life to snatch it from His Majesty. This is a tribute from a small country on the sea far away, and even the princes have never drank it... Today is destined, here it is for you Sing lightly."

The short eunuch looked left and right, and took out a leather kettle from his arms.

He was even guarding against the tall eunuch.

This matter is really serious enough to be decapitated, but the eunuch hit it off with Qin Jinyang immediately, and believed that Qin Jinyang would not betray himself.

Although Qin Jinyang wanted to refuse, but when he thought that the emperor had the same drink, and even the prince had never drunk it, he couldn't help but give it a try.

He took a small sip.

boom!
Soft entrance, a line of throat.

Suddenly, a warm breath spread from the throat to the whole body.

Qin Jinyang's mouth was filled with a delicate fragrance, and after just one sip, he felt like he was in a celestial state, with an urge to fly to the clouds.

It's fine wine.

Unheard of wine.

Although it has already been eaten, the stamina is lingering, and the breath is full of pure and intoxicating aroma.

Not surprisingly, the dantian was boiling hot, and the true energy surged again.

"You... have another bite?"

Seeing Qin Jinyang's intoxicated expression, the short eunuch couldn't bear to stop his drink, and gritted his teeth.

There were only a few mouthfuls in total, and his heart was bleeding.

"No, no, no... easy to get drunk..."

Qin Jinyang waved his hand and was polite.

As long as the little eunuch turns around and is more polite, trying to be thick-skinned, he has to take another bite.

"Then stop drinking!"

As a result, the short eunuch was not polite, he withdrew his hand, and the wine gourd disappeared like lightning.

Qin Jinyang was very disappointed.

"Eunuch, do you know the background of Mu Shidi's imperial envoy?"

Qin Jinyang thought of Mu Zhihe, and then of Mu Shidi.

The dignified imperial envoy should be very fierce.

He also asked casually.

"Then you're asking the right person...Mu Qincha, but the famous man next to the emperor, is the biggest contributor during this period."

When asked what the short eunuch is best at, he immediately became energetic:
"The most prosperous province of the dynasty is our Shanhu province... In recent years, the border army has been fighting again and again, and there is a shortage of food and pay. It is time for the Shanhu province to pay for food. Guess what?"

"Hehe, Shan Hu's province is crying for poverty. From the governor to the county magistrate, all the officials are colluding, and the money and grain paid are actually less than half of what they were last year... There is no natural disaster, but the same caliber is said. Floods have flooded and food production has decreased."

"Hmph, this group of moths are twisted into one rope, just to see the internal and external troubles of the court. The emperor has no time and spare energy to attack them."

"The imperial dynasty dispatched eunuchs as factory guards, but those people were so clever that they kept the accounts seamlessly... The local people were afraid and dared not tell the truth at all."

"The emperor sent imperial envoys to go there again. As a result, the two imperial envoys, one in front and the other in the rear, were assassinated by the rebels in Shanhu Province and died on the spot."

"Winter is coming, and the biggest disaster in the north is about to invade the border again. The frontier army has no food and pay, and it is on the verge of mutiny. The generals are going to retire and return to their hometowns... But looking at the court, no one dares to go to the Shanhu Province to investigate the case and levy Food and pay."

"At this time, Mu Qin sent to stand up."

When Mu Shidi was mentioned, the short eunuch's expression became proud.

Qin Jinyang sighed.

This single Hu Xingxing province is monolithic, and the imperial power is sometimes really difficult to intervene.

There must be a reason for the emperor to dismiss and kill officials.

"Mu Qin sent an iron fist. As soon as he went to the province of Shan Hu, he risked being impeached by hundreds of officials, and directly slaughtered a county magistrate and three clans. The clans entrenched in a county, blood flowed into rivers overnight..."

"Afterwards, Mu Qin's missions will kill wherever they go...Where have those moths seen such momentum? Compared with money and life, life is of course more important."

"In less than a month, Mu Qin's envoy actually confiscated enough rations for a province's population for three years from the Shanhu province, which shocked the world."

"This batch of rations has also completely solved the border army's rations."

The short eunuch looked excited, as if the imperial envoy was himself.

"The population of a province can be eaten up for three years, amazing!"

Qin Jinyang nodded.

If you are the emperor, you must also reward such heroes.

"Not only...this is just food, but also silver!"

"Speaking of money, thanks to Mu Zhihe, the eldest son of Mu Qin."

"He was meticulous, he investigated all the way, collected evidence all the way, and finally found out that Shan Hu's provincial governor led all the officials who were actually selling food to the enemy country... not just one country!"

The short eunuch gritted his teeth.

"brute!"

Qin Jinyang squinted his eyes, and felt an unexplained anger in his heart for no reason.

He participated in the battle of Qiyi City.

Recalling the picture of Jin Qingyun being hung on the city wall, I felt a dull pain in my heart.

How many soldiers were born and died, and died in foreign countries.

The enemy thieves ate the food in Zhongzhou and killed the hungry soldiers in Zhongzhou. The reason was this group of traitors.

"Fortunately, Mu Qin sent thunderous means, and this group of beasts has been uprooted. The governor punished the nine clans, and Ling Chi executed them. The rest of the accomplices were all punished by the three clans. The single-handed provincial case is the biggest bloody case in recent years..."

"Poor Majesty, who is so devoted to the country, how many officials above the court are still carrying out such activities..."

The short eunuch sighed, with a melancholy expression of worrying about the country and the people.

"From this point of view, Mu Zhihe's contribution is really great!"

Qin Jinyang nodded.

Compared with this shocking case, his prestige in Qiyi City really seemed insignificant.

As for the eunuch pitying the emperor, that's even more bullshit.

A mere post station is so luxurious, but the emperor never thought of dismantling it for food.

Of course, it is normal for eunuchs to depend on the emperor to survive, and to think for the emperor.

"Yes, Mr. Mu is a young hero, brave and resourceful, and will be the pillar of the country in the future."

The short eunuch gave a thumbs up.

If it is said that Mu Qin's thunderous method is out of breath, then the young master Mu's investigation of all kinds of irrefutable evidence is the real wisdom.

……

The next day!

Before dawn, Qin Jinyang was shouted by the eunuch.

Take a bath, comb your hair, burn incense, and change your clothes.

After leaving the post station and following the eunuch all the way, Qin Jinyang finally stepped into the famous palace.

The vermilion city wall stands majestically, like a moat that has existed since ancient times, and the end cannot be seen at a glance.

All the roads and all the corners are guarded by the solemn Golden Armored Imperial Forest Army.

From a distance, this group of people is like a sharp sword, and it hurts to look at it.

Qin Jinyang lowered his head, and under the eunuch's reminder, he didn't dare to perceive the rank of this group of Imperial Forest Army casually.

But he was curious, so he glanced at it without leaving a trace.

Very fierce.

The fourth rank is the minion, and the fifth rank is the team leader.

Six products may be everywhere.

Let alone the sixth rank, there should be quite a few of the seventh rank.

Walking to a door, Qin Jinyang went through another body search, inside and out, over and over again.

At first, Qin Jinyang was not used to it, but now he is numb.

move on.

Before and after Qin Jinyang, there were gradually other face-to-face people.

There are older officials and there are young people.

Along the way, Qin Jinyang has been shocked to the point of numbness.

Gold pavement, white jade walls, all seem so commonplace, some are not worth mentioning.

Qin Jinyang's most memorable location is a corridor. There are various paintings in the corridor, and the kind of wood for the frame, Qin Jinyang has seen in Xu Yuansheng's study.

It was a piece of jewelry as thick as a little finger. Xu Yuansheng smelled it from time to time, and it had a peculiar smell. He was obviously a treasure, and when it was not in use, it had to be carefully soaked in water to maintain it.

In the imperial palace, it can be said that it is everywhere, and the wood has been reduced to a picture frame, humbly bearing the wind and rain.

Passing by the pond, the water is spiritual fluid.

Passing by the mountains and rocks, it is a scene of casting of various precious spiritual objects.

Qin Jinyang didn't know those vines at all.

After walking all the way, the true energy in Qin Jinyang's dantian also soared all the way.

It's a pity that Da Jiangzhou stayed in the station and was not allowed to bring it in... Forget it, even if he brought it in, he wouldn't dare to swallow it.

I have to admit that the imperial palace is the real holy place for cultivation.

Is it the king's land in the whole world!

Qin Jinyang had a deeper understanding of this sentence.

what……

In other words, if you are in an enemy country, can you sneak into the palace and let the big river swallow a wave?
Bah... think too much, but life matters.

……

It was still dark.

Qin Jinyang was standing in the corner of a square, waiting for the emperor to deliver the decree.

There are still many people standing in front of the square.

The young people had different expressions on their faces, not daring to show their grandeur.

Some old people were more relaxed and chatted with each other in low voices. Although the eunuchs saw it, they turned a blind eye.

"Are you Qin Jinyang?"

Suddenly, a middle-aged man with long beard came over.

Beside the middle-aged man was Mu Zhihe, who smiled at Qin Jinyang.

"Caomin has seen the imperial envoy!"

Qin Jinyang folded his fists and bent over, respectfully.

The eunuch had told him that he had to call himself a grassroots in the palace.

hemp eggs.

Is there any substantive difference between grassroots and untouchables?
