As soon as King Lunnan died, the seven dragon pillars were taken away by King Zhao, and they rose up from the ground with a roar.

Except for the fact that the palace was in ruins, the entire royal city was basically unscathed.

However, when Shen Zhui and others drove the warship over, they clearly sensed that some powerful auras were extinguishing quietly.

Some mysterious men in black kept appearing all over the royal city, killing some officials who wanted to escape.

As the master of the feudal kingdom, King Toyama would seek refuge with outside forces, and it was not soul slavery, which was really unpredictable.

The huge official power under his command is deeply involved. After all, the leader of a country has taken refuge in him, and it is difficult to say that the people below are absolutely clean.

And the man in black who killed these officials belongs to the Supervision Department!

"These people... are not weak." Shen Zhui stood on the deck, sensing the secret battle scenes. Although it was relatively low-key, the distance was so close, and Lu Yuanwei had always turned on the Pantheon Mirror, so of course he could see clearly.

Among them there were many officials of the sixth level of the Venerable, who easily killed the officials of the ninth level of the Venerable, and then indifferently searched and destroyed the corpses.

As for the civil servants, they were basically nothing to see.

Usually, the cultivation of civil servants is entirely based on the bureaucratic system, and most of them rely on the luck of the court to improve their cultivation.

It looks like it goes up, and it goes down just as fast.

With a secret order from the center, those civil servants who have reached the ninth level of the Venerable can be thrown into the abyss.

Of course, above the venerable, it is not that simple.

Officials of the third rank are the pillars of the country. They usually hold important positions in the six ministries, or are directly ministers of the central government. They must be submitted to the emperor through the central government, and the royal pen and imperial edict must be issued before the civil servants of the third rank and above can be abolished.

"I just found out that none of the thirty-six sons of King Lunnan is clean. They have all been dealt with." Kong Yangzhou appeared behind Shen Zhui and kept shaking his head. "Thirty-six royal families have been uprooted. The descendants of the royal family within eight generations and above the Spirit Bridge realm have no way to survive. Even if they are lucky enough to survive, they will be imprisoned in the wilderness and die of old age."

"The Lunnan Kingdom is basically over." Shen Zhui sighed.

The leader of a country has taken refuge with foreign forces. It is obvious that the people below are definitely not clean. If a prince is traveling abroad or practicing in the secret realm of the imperial court, and proves to have absolutely nothing to do with this matter, then he might still have a chance to inherit part of the kingdom's property.

However, King Lunnan's situation is obviously impossible. The most likely thing is to remove the title, split the Lunnan Kingdom into several large mansions, and put them directly under the jurisdiction of Kyoto.

"Hmph, this King Lunnan deserves it." Kong Yangzhou snorted coldly. "He introduced the witchcraft and Gu cult into neighboring countries, and then betrayed the information, which caused the death of a prince on the battlefield more than seventy years ago. And five years ago, when he implemented the national policy of destroying ancestral clans and abandoning temples, King Lunnan also It’s the most danceable.”

"If it's just the first two cases that lead to death, your majesty may still care about the old relationship and keep his bloodline, or he may be demoted and inherit an idle marquis. It is possible that he will not be exterminated."

The two of them chatted and moved forward. Soon those mysterious men in black disappeared one after another.

Not long after, a large and majestic purple fleet appeared in front and negotiated with King Zhao's personal guards. Among them were generals in armor and officials in civilian uniforms.

"Who are those people?" Shen Zhui asked doubtfully.

"The guard of honor to welcome King Zhao is accompanied by Qin Ming, the Minister of War, Cheng Hai, the Minister of Rites, and Haige, the transfer envoy between the two continents. They will lead us into the capital." Kong Yangzhou said. "There should be some people from the Supervision Department, but I don't know about that."

"Transporter Hagrid?" Shen Zhui seemed to have heard this name somewhere, but he couldn't remember it for a while.

"Shen Zhui, Hagrid, the transshipment envoy between these two continents, is Hai Qing's father." Zen Xin reminded.

"Huh? Hai Qing?" Shen Zhui suddenly realized.

Back in the Holy Word Secret Realm, there were several difficult opponents in the third level. And Hai Qing and Long Qie are one of the forces.

Speaking of which, Long Qie and Hai Qing wanted to form an alliance with themselves in the end, and planned to exchange for the secret of promotion above the great concubine. However, Shen Zhui found out the secret of becoming king through Hai Qing's words, and was finally able to enter the Great Xia Palace City, meet the second human emperor Xia Jie, and was granted the title of King Pingyang.

"It seems that after entering Beijing, we will meet a group of old acquaintances." Shen Zhui smiled slightly.

Wei Tianlong, who originally handed over the tips to him, Ji Chang, a descendant of the royal family...

A curtain of water appeared in the palm of his hand, and the name of the welcoming team appeared on the token. After a moment, Shen Zhui saw a very familiar name - Wei Wenhe.

"From the fifth rank, chief guest and secretary?" Shen Zhui looked at the introduction on the list and smiled slightly. From the fifth rank, this official in the capital is not considered young, and it is obvious that his former immediate boss is doing well.

"Lao Kong, is this chief guest's secretary considered a high official?" Shen Suixiu asked.

Kong Yangzhou looked at Shen Zhui with a strange look on his face and said: "There are various responsibilities in the Ministry of Etiquette, including the Chief of Staff, the Department of Sacrifice, the Department of Cleaning Officials, the Department of Printing and Printing, and the Department of Guests. The most useless one among them is the Chief of Guests. What, you have a friend in the receptionist department?"

"After all, he is a fifth-grade official. How could he be as bad as you said?" Shen Zhui frowned slightly.

"Haha, I, Lao Kong, think that I am not as good as you when it comes to force, but when it comes to understanding various departments, Brother Shen, you are far inferior to me." Kong Yangzhou said proudly.

"In each department of the Ministry of Rites, the Chief Minister is in charge of rituals, military rituals, and academic affairs. It handles many matters such as offering sacrifices to temples, dispatching armies, and managing the academy. Although they are all self-proclaimed clean-blooded people, there is no shortage of oil and water."

"I won't talk about it, Priest Director. Important matters of the country belong to the military and to the sacrifice!"

"The Department of Cleaning Officials involves integrity and etiquette in official promotion, and it is a great source of wealth for the Yamen!"

"The Department of Seals is responsible for casting the seals and documents of internal and external officials. It is equivalent to the in-house department of the Ministry of Rites. It is not unimportant."

"Only the chief guest, hehe, is the yamen where the Ministry of Rites welcomes guests. At best, he is an official, but at worst, he is the servant of the Ministry of Rites!"

Kong Yangzhou pointed at the group of people who followed the official and nodded. "Look, those are the people in charge of the reception. The officials from the Ministry of Etiquette go down to the boat and build a long ladder. They sit down to receive guests and serve tea... There are many rules here. Unlike us soldiers, we can just go to the place. As soon as the warship is retracted, jump off immediately."

"Being a clerk of the fifth rank? If you are a fifth-rank clerk, there will be some benefits. But if you are a clerk of the fifth rank, you will get nothing, but you will have to do a lot of work. In terms of benefits, it is not as good as being a clerk of the Qing official department. Sixth grade! Who did your friend offend? He is actually working in the Chamberlain Department!"

"..." After listening to Kong Yangzhou's introduction, Shen Zhui couldn't help but be speechless. His brows gradually furrowed together.

According to him, Wei Wenhe was young, talented, and backed by the Wei family. He was his great-grandfather when he became the right minister. How could such a person be willing to stay in a dispensable yamen like the Ministry of Rites?

"Let's go." Shen Zhui clasped his hands and came out of the warship.

"Where to go? Wait for me." Kong Yangzhou quickly followed.

…………

There is a lavender boat in the welcoming team. This boat is the courtesy boat sent by the chief guest. The appearance is majestic and solemn, but the interior is indeed antique and full of book atmosphere.

In the concierge building, there was an old man. His hair was meticulously combed, and he was sitting leisurely on a big chair, drinking fragrant tea.

Officials came in and out to report from time to time, but when facing Li Wenqing, the chief official of the Chamber of Commerce, they subconsciously slowed down, for fear that if something went wrong, they would be scolded.

After a while, after finishing the cup of tea, Li Wenqing put down the cup, called a young official over, and asked, "Have the arrangements been made for the people sent to Marquis Wenxin's warship to take orders?"

"Your Excellency, we have sent people there. They are all smart and smart. They will ensure that Marquis Wenxin is satisfied. No etiquette will be missed during the sacrifice." The young official said respectfully.

"Very good, the imperial court has newly conferred the title of Marquis Wu, and the ceremony is a major event. Whether Marquis Wenxin is dissatisfied, or the court officials are dissatisfied, it is our chief guest who will be scolded, and we must not make any mistakes! I urge those who go ahead Be cautious and respectful, if you offend Marquis Wenxin, prepare to stay in Zhangbinsi for the rest of your life!"

It seemed that the appearance of this last sentence made the young official extremely frightened, and he immediately said: "Yes, sir, I will go and check if there is anything missing."

"Wait, come back!" Li Wenqing stopped the young official again. "Where is the champion?"

The young official's face changed slightly, "This..."

"Asshole! How dare you disrespect the champion?!" Li Wenqing said angrily. "If you piss him off, you won't even have a chance to stay in the Headmaster's Department for retirement!"

"S-Sir," the young official said aggrievedly. "The person in charge of the champion is Mr. Wei. This is none of my subordinates' business."

"Wei Wenhe doesn't understand etiquette. You've been following me for so long and you still don't understand?!"

"Send someone over quickly. By the way, call Wei Wenhe over!"

"Yes." The young official hurriedly left.

"This ungrateful thing..." A trace of anger flashed in Li Wenqing's eyes.

The official who saw the angry chief on the side became softer.

At the same time, everyone felt a moment of silence for the young Mr. Wei.

Obviously, the title of Champion Marquis is of great significance. In terms of courtesy, it is more important than Wenxin Marquis. Such a mistake happened at this juncture?

Originally, the Wei family had lost power in the court, and Mr. Wei was usually disliked by Si Zheng. Fortunately, this time, he was given an excuse.

"Master Wei, you are going to suffer."

"If you butter up the champion, you might be able to get promoted in the future."

"If you are favored, it would be better to be taken to the prince's kingdom and granted a title than to stay in the Zhangbinsi... No wonder Si Zheng is angry."

"Shh, keep your voice down and do your thing."

"..."

The busy officials continued to go about their business, but when they sent people to the champion warship, Shen Zhui came directly to the outside of the concierge warship.

This one is exactly the building boat on the Weiwen River.

"Brother Wenhe." Shen Zhui's spiritual thoughts floated gently on the barrier of the concierge boat.

"Who?" A gentle voice sounded.

"It's me, Shen Zhui."

"Shen Zhui?" Wei Wenhe opened the door curtain and walked out. He looked at Shen Zhui happily.

"It's me." Shen Zhui cupped his hands and smiled. "Brother Wenhe, long time no see."

"Quick, please come in." Wei Wenhe also waved his hand, opened the barrier, and invited Shen Zhui in.

After entering the boat, the two of them took their seats. Naturally, a brief exchange of pleasantries was inevitable.

"Nearly two years have passed since we parted ways in Heyuan County. I didn't expect that you would become Marquis Wu." Wei Wenhe looked at Shen Zhui now, his demeanor was completely different from before, and he couldn't help sighing.

"No matter how high-ranking an official is, he would not dare to forget Brother Wenhe's kindness. Without Brother Wenhe's promotion, how could he be the champion he is today?" Shen Zhui smiled. He had always remembered this. If he hadn't been promoted, I'm afraid it would not be so easy for him to get where he is today with the resources that the county magistrate protected and provided him with.

"It's because you work hard enough. I, Wei Wenhe, don't have the ability to promote a Wuhou." Wei Wenhe shook his head slightly, as if he was mocking himself.

"Brother Wen He seems to be troubled?" Shen Zhui asked. Find Shuyuan www.zhaoｓhuyuaｎ.com

"It's okay not to say anything." Wei Wenhe took out a pot of wine, filled it up for Shen Zhui, and invited Shen Zhui to drink with him.

Shen Zhui picked up the wine glass and took a look at Wei Wenhe. He saw that the other person had changed a lot. Wei Wenhe never drank alcohol before, only tea, and he was full of high spirits. But now, there is a sense of vicissitudes of life all over my body.

Thinking about it, the past two years in Beijing have not been very satisfactory.

Shen Zhui didn't push him, so he drank several times with Wei Wenhe.

After three glasses of wine, Wei Wenhe started to talk a lot as a vein shot up from the center of his eyebrows.

"King Lunnan collaborated with the enemy and betrayed the country. He deserves to be killed. But are all his descendants within eight generations worthy of death?"

"As soon as the title of the country was removed and the king was beheaded, everyone pushed the wall down. Instead of interceding for him, they added insult to injury and ordered the Supervision Department to expand the scope of involvement. It is true that the world is in trouble and the methods are all-powerful..."

Shen Zhui frowned, realizing that Wei Wenhe had something to say, and asked. "I wonder who Brother Wenhe is worth?"

"Who else could it be?" Wei Wenhe chuckled. "Of course it's the Taiping Prime Minister!"

Shen Zhui's eyelids twitched slightly. Thanks to Kong Yangzhou, of course he also knew some anecdotes about famous people in the capital. Among them is his potential enemy, the Fan family!

Fan Wenhan, the Prime Minister of the Left, was considered to be extremely powerful in the capital, and the country regarded the Left as the most respected. His strategies in governing were often criticized. Because if something bad happens in the vassal states, the left prime minister will either suppress it in secret and suppress it very ruthlessly, or deal with it later and whitewash the peace.
