Nangong Nei put down the file and said to Nangong Yuan who was standing by: "Send all the things that have been processed to Liang Zuo!"

"Your Excellency, you are so optimistic about him? From the looks of him, I'm afraid it will be difficult to break through the Grandmaster in a short time! He has taken a path that is not so easy!"

"It is precisely because it is difficult to get around, so once you get through, your future achievements will not be low!" Nangong Nei said with a smile, "Among those officials, he is the one I value most. Although his talent is slightly inferior, he is a good person. But he is impeccable in his work, and no matter how talented he is, he should have no problem breaking through to become a master!"

"Isn't Xu Dao what you value most?" Nangong Yuan felt that his words were a bit false. Compared with Xu Dao's brilliance, Liang Zuo seemed a bit mediocre compared to him.

Nangong Nei's tone paused, and then he shook his head, "These two values ​​are not the same, and they are also very different. I value Liang Zuo because I think he will be the most valuable after I step down as the Palace Lord. It’s possible to take on this heavy responsibility! Even if we can’t make any greater achievements, at least we won’t plunge this place into chaos.”

"But although Xu Dao is far more talented and talented than Liang Zuo, he is not suitable to be a palace minister."

"Why is that? I think Mr. Xu is the best choice in terms of strength and means! Are you worried that he can't handle government affairs?"

"Of course not. Even if he doesn't understand it at first, with his talent he will be able to master it in a few days. I never worry about this!"

"That's..."

"This small Black Mountain Mansion cannot accommodate him!" Nangong Nei shook his head, his tone full of regret, "If his talent and talents are only average, then I will try whatever it takes to keep him here. Heishan Mansion is so good that even if I use up everything No matter how hard you try, you can't keep him! As he grows, this little Montenegro will become a cage. You can put a bird in the cage, or you can try hard and barely put a tiger in the cage. , but there is no way to put a real dragon in it!"

Nangong Yuan nodded, "I understand! I've known for a long time that Fu Zun values ​​Mr. Xu in particular, but I didn't expect that Fu Zun would rate him so highly! However, Fu Zun, a tiger, felt wronged when he walked into the cage!"

Nangong Nei raised his eyebrows, "Who told you I'm a tiger? I'm just that bird!"

Nangong Yuan: "..."

"I'm going to deliver the dossier to Mr. Liang!"

"He should have gone to Qingyun County again at this time!"

"Yes, I know!"

After Nangong Yuan left, Nangong Nei took out a letter. This letter was written by Xu Dao after the medicine refining competition. It said in code that he became the leader of the competition and got the life-extending gift as he wished. things. Just because this item is precious, it cannot be delivered with the letter!

This letter had arrived a while ago, and he had read it more than once. No matter how many troubles he had, as long as he saw the news, he would be happy immediately.

As long as Xu Dao obtains the life-extending thing, it can be regarded as a solution to his worries. As for not being able to get it right away, he is not in a hurry. Madam Qin just used the life-extending lotus seeds not long ago, and her longevity is at least about ten years. I'm not in a hurry for this moment!

If he reacts too hastily, it may cause someone to notice the anomaly and make things unexpectedly change.

"Looking at it again?" Qin's voice sounded behind him. Nangong was startled, but when he reacted, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

"Well, I just finished handling the government affairs and nothing happened, so I took it out and took a look!" Nangong Nei did not hide his emotions in front of his wife Qin, but he was eager in his heart. Although he pretended to be calm on the surface, in fact, He wished he could go to the road to greet her now, but because it was too risky, he gave up the idea.

"The child has worked so hard to win the competition. That thing must be his reward. Its value is so high that it cannot be measured by money or even ordinary resources. What's going on if I take it?" Mrs. Qin shook her head and disappeared. Half happy.

"I was able to accept the life-extending thing you exchanged for your longevity yuan before, because I knew that you and I are one husband and wife, and we have no distinction between each other. But if I really want to take such a treasure from that child, I don't think it should be! "

Nangong Nei just smiled and didn't reply. Madam is an emotional person, and reasoning at this time is useless, not to mention that in this matter, his reasoning is untenable.

"Can you say something?" Mrs. Qin was a little angry when she saw Nangong Nei's silence. However, when she saw Nangong Nei's head of white hair, she felt a little unbearable and could only sigh, "Why is this necessary?" What about you? Ten years is actually enough for me! There is no need to force it! Don’t you know that life-extending things are precious even if they can’t use them now? It’s a waste!”

Nangong Nei remained silent. Whether he admitted or denied it at this time, it was wrong. Although he understood that the madam was not wrong. As a person who personally exchanged a hundred years of life for ten years of life extension, there was no such thing as People know the preciousness of that kind of thing better than he does.

He owed this favor greatly! Life may not be enough!

"That's all, I won't say any more!" Mrs. Qin brought the soup to the table in front of Nangong Nei, "Eat something! Then go to bed early and don't be busy too late!"

Nangong Nei nodded, "Yes, I know!"

"I heard that a lot of things have happened recently?"

"Yes!" Nangong nodded while eating soup, "It seems that the Black Mountain Prefecture is peaceful, and nothing special has happened recently, but it is not peaceful outside the Black Mountain Prefecture! First, a few months ago, the Wutong Divine Sect attacked the Lingguang Divine Monarch Temple and fought a great battle at Laoyang Mountain! Xu Dao's master also participated! Then there was the Bronze Fairy Palace incident in Deyang Prefecture, and finally the destruction of the Vajra Temple! One by one, it was shocking!"

"Is the Vajra Temple really gone?"

"Yes, it is really gone! Such a large force, spanning six counties, a powerful sect that has existed for endless years, Just disappeared inexplicably like that!" Nangong sighed, "It's a troubled time!"

"These things won't affect the Black Mountain Mansion, right?" Qin was a little worried, "I've always felt uneasy recently!"

Nangong paused, smiled and comforted: "You don't have to worry, no matter how chaotic it is outside, I will only guard my own little piece of land. As for the outside... I don't care about the flood! Even if I want to manage it, I don't have the ability!"

Qin nodded, "It's getting late, so I'll go back first! You should come back early too!"
