stand back, let me come

Chapter 1470: This is a BUG (Part 1470) [Seeking monthly votes]

"You can't compare people, and you can't compare temples." Gu Chi sighed sincerely. Before the doctor took action, he didn't realize that there was something wrong with the other temples' indifferent behavior.

Looking back now, everything seems wrong.

"It's just that there are some things I don't like to hear."

"Don't want to hear it?"

"It's the saying that the cost and energy required to train talents in the Holy Temple of Medicine is high. I don't agree with that." Gu Chi pointed at himself and said, "I also studied hard for ten years. I didn't say that I worked hard, but I also suffered a lot. It's not like I was born knowing it."

Doctors in Xinglin are treasures among doctors, but you are just a weed?
It's not easy for him either.

"...If Wangchao could also take a small test every three days, a big test every five days, take a professional qualification test every now and then, and be caught taking the college entrance examination in his dreams at any time...I think you would also be the treasure of the Temple."

Gu Chi's face turned green when he heard this.

He waved his hand and declined: "Thank you."

It is hard to say that his colleagues who go to the front line every day have no merit in the assessment of the Ministry of Personnel, and they are exempted from the assessment when fighting on the front line.

Gu Chi has been working in the Censorate for many years. One reason is that his expertise as a scholar is highly suited to this field, and as a trusted and loyal minister of his lord, no one cares about him. Another reason is that the Ministry of Personnel has no control over the promotion and demotion affairs of the Censorate, and the Censorate has its own assessment standards.

Shen Tang was amused by his half-dead expression.

"Is there some good news that makes the master so happy?" The voice first floated from outside the tent, followed by the sandalwood that almost permeated his body to his bones, and then Qin Li's handsome and mature face.

Ever since Kang Shi and Chu Yao predicted the same bad news, the army's marching speed had been as slow as a turtle. There were frequent communications between the front and the rear, but no good news was received each time. It took more than ten days of stopping and starting before the three armies finally stepped out of the Yudi Mountains.

During this period, we also encountered several small-scale tentative ambushes, but fortunately we were well prepared and suffered no losses. However, the entire army was shrouded in an invisible high pressure, which was as heavy as the rainy season, making it hard to breathe.

It was not until he heard his master's laughter that Qin Li felt as if the clouds had cleared and the sun was shining. A beam of warm golden sunlight shone directly in.

Shen Tang said, "Tunan sent a letter saying that more than a thousand patients in Fengluo have recovered from the critical condition, and the Medical Department has a clue about this epidemic."

Qin Li smiled and said, "This is indeed a great joyous event."

Fengluo is one of the most populous and economically developed regions in Kangguo. After the founding of the country, countless efforts have been made. From the most basic urban construction to the city defense, everything has been done with great care. If such a place is abandoned, it will be a great pain.

Fortunately, God bless Kangguo.

"Has the Lord told Wuhui the good news?"

As long as it's not Qishan, Qin Li still cares about his colleagues.

Chu Yao is the one who has suffered the most mental stress during this period.

That [Bright future after dark] was triggered passively again. There was no movement in the past few years, which made people doubt whether its existence was real or not. Now it is triggered every day, and scenes of natural disasters and man-made disasters in different regions frequently appear. Chu Yao lost a lot of weight in ten days.

The mental state is visibly deteriorating.

No scholar with a literary mind can bear to use the ways of the scholar every day.

If this continues, Chu Yao won't be able to hold on.

Shen Tang slapped his forehead and hurriedly sent the guards to run errands: "I just received the news here too, and I haven't had time to dissipate the heat yet."

【The dark clouds bring light】It was just a future under the conditions at that time. Now Ning Yan is in charge of epidemic prevention in Kangguo, and the Medical Bureau has turned the situation around. Logically, the future should have changed. Shen Tang looked up, but Chu Yao did not come, but a hurried guard.

"Where's Wuhui? Why didn't he come?"

Shen Tang became worried when he saw that the person looked unwell.

He was impatient for once, and could not wait for the guards to report back, so he rushed to see Chu Yao in person. As soon as he arrived at the door of Chu Yao's tent, he smelled a thick medicinal smell: "What's going on? How did you drink the medicine?"

When I saw Chu Yao three days ago, he didn't look so weak.

The medical team who were packing the medicine boxes were trapped in the tent. They could not hide anything and could only look to Chu Yao for help. Fortunately, Chu Yao rescued him. When Shen Tang saw Chu Yao, he forgot about the others.

"Why are you up? Lie down quickly."

Chu Yao supported himself on the bed with both hands but was pushed down halfway through standing up.

"Why are you so sick?"

Although they were in the camp, they did not meet every day, especially in the past two days when the camp was being arranged and the army was setting up camp. They were afraid of missing something and being caught by the enemy for a surprise attack. The last time Shen Tang saw Chu Yao was three or four days ago. The monarch and his subject met briefly and then went on with their own business.

Chu Yao felt that he was not sick enough to be disrespectful in front of the king, so he forced himself to sit up.

“It’s not a disease.”

The frequent use of the way of scholars has overdrawn their literary energy.

He wanted to appease Shen Tang, but he forgot that they had known each other for more than ten years, and Shen Tang knew whether he had lied to him or concealed anything. However, the young master did not get angry. Instead, his almond eyes drooped slightly, his eyebrows arched down, revealing a bit of accusation.

It seems like nothing was said, but in fact everything was said.

Who wouldn't feel nervous when seeing Shen Tang's expression?
Chu Yao couldn't stand it: "Alas, Yao doesn't want the master to worry."

"If Wu Hui really didn't want me to worry, he should have told me instead of hiding it from me along with the medical team. If I hadn't caught you, would you still be so stubborn? Don't you know that seeing you like this suddenly scares my heart so much that it almost stops beating?"

Chu Yao said: "My Lord, please be careful with your words."

Scholars of letters should follow the law when speaking and should avoid prophecies.

Knowing he couldn't hide it, Chu Yao had no choice but to confess.

"It's really not a bad thing. Maybe it can be a blessing in disguise."

"But you are already so weak, and you think it is a blessing in disguise? You are kidding me." Shen Tang was still skeptical.

"I'm not kidding, this is real."

Shen Tang vaguely guessed: "Is it perfect?"

"Ah."

Although only one in ten scholars of literary talent can achieve perfection in their lifetime, and it is not enough to have ten points of strength and talent, but also ninety points of luck, but seeing his colleagues achieving success one after another, and even his two students - Ling De now has hope of reaching the threshold of cultivating 200,000 acres of land, and Yu Zi has even crossed that threshold in one go - it is impossible to say that Chu Yao was not anxious at all.

If there is an opportunity, he will seize it.

"Why didn't you say anything?" Shen Tang was no longer anxious, and was so happy that he wanted to show his teeth, "Is there anything I can help with?"

If only it were like Tunan.

She would not feel at ease unless she saw Chu Yao with her own eyes.

"The greatest help is for the master to feel at ease."

The lord cares about him, so why shouldn't he care about the lord too?

I didn't tell her before because I didn't want Shen Tang to be distracted by his affairs. Fengluo's disease was already enough to worry her. If she was still worried about his perfect ceremony, how could Chu Yao bear it? After saying this, Chu Yao felt sleepy again, and his eyelids felt heavy as if they were filled with lead water.

An irresistible force pulled him to an unknown area: "...The completion ceremony was in my dream...Forgive me for my rudeness..."

The more he spoke, the softer his voice became.

Finally, his head drooped, his upper body fell forward, and he actually fell asleep. Shen Tang didn't even have the time to ask him for more details.

"I don't know what kind of harsh ritual it is..." Looking down at Chu Yao, whose eyes were dark and half rested on her lap, Shen Tang was worried and bent down to straighten his sleeping position.

"Since this is a dream, then..."

She wondered whether she should pull Gu Chi over.

"Gong Su hasn't returned yet?"

He was so absorbed in his thoughts that he didn't notice Qin Li who was waiting for news outside the tent.

Qin Li did not answer, but just cast his gaze towards Chu Yao's tent.

"Wuhui said that he had completed the assessment ceremony. He fell asleep after just saying a few words to me. I don't know how he is doing or whether it went well or not." At this point, Shen Tang's brows could not hide his worry.

The abilities of the scribes are different, and the rites of perfection are also varied. Some are simple, while some may not be able to make any progress even after a lifetime of hard work. Many cannot even touch the threshold of perfection.

Chu Yao's long-cherished wish finally came true. Shen Tang was happy for him but also worried. The perfect ceremony was accompanied by great risks. One mistake could lead to eternal damnation. There was only one Chu Wuhui in the world. If he was gone, where could Shen Tang find another one?
Not everyone is like Mei Meng, who can fight again after failing once, and can save their lives after failing the second time. Most people are like Kang Shi and Yu Zi, who decide life and death in one go. Either live in glory or be buried in a grand ceremony.

"The completion ceremony? At this time?"

"Yeah, it came suddenly."

As the only second-rank official of the upper class in the court of King Kang, and a model of young success, it is surprising that Chu Yao has started the perfect ceremony at this age. But considering the more than ten years he wasted in the process, it is understandable. It's just that it's not too early or too late, but it's delayed by the ceremony at this time, and the time is not ripe.

The completion ceremony consumes too much energy of the scholars, and some scholars will be forcibly restricted in their strength during the assessment period, either weakened or reduced to ordinary people. It is very easy to be injured by mistake in a melee between the two armies.

"I'm thinking about sending Wu Hui back to China so that he can concentrate on preparing for the perfect ceremony." Shen Tang fell asleep before he had time to discuss it with Chu Yao. "The war can be fought at any time, but if he misses the ceremony, his life may be in danger..."

Chu Yao could catch up after completing the ceremony.

Qin Li: "No one would refuse."

If you put yourself in his shoes, Qin Li would feel that he was a deserter and betrayed his master's trust. Chu Yao seemed to have no temper and was always emotionally stable, but when you think about his best words and his fierce style of rushing into battle as soon as he entered the battlefield... This made him feel worse than killing him. Qin Li was sure of one thing, if his master really did this, it would be hard to appease him.

Shen Tang: "...I am too concerned and confused."

She simply had the documents delivered to the next tent.

She would stay here, and she would be able to react immediately if anything happened to Chu Yao. It would be more reassuring to keep an eye on him nearby.

Gu Chi: "Does the master look like the man who is guarding outside the delivery room?"

Waiting for Chu Yao to be born after the completion of the ceremony.

Shen Tang retorted, "If Wang Chao can also fulfill one for justice, let alone guard you, I will even serve you for a full month."

"Why for him?"

Gu Chi had a look of disgust on his face. Although the misunderstanding between him and Luan Xin had been resolved, the inertia of the two sides' unilateral enmity for many years had not disappeared. Luan Gongyi's most despised colleague was still him, Gu Chi, and Gu Chi didn't like to curry favor with someone who didn't like him.

"Justice benefits."

As long as his colleagues work hard to complete a scribe's path, his completion ceremony will progress +1. Isn't it for him?

Gu Chi used his sleeve to wipe away the non-existent tears, and spoke in a pretentious voice: "... Chi wants to do well, but his body is imperfect, and he and Gongyi are even more inseparable. Instead of forcing myself, it is better to spur my colleagues."

Shen Tang: "..."

She is really not as slutty as Gu Chi's mouth.

Gu Chi suddenly became serious: "It seems like she's going to have a difficult birth."

He said this with difficulty.

No one knew better than him how important Chu Yao was in Shen Tang's heart. If Chu Yao had any problems, Qi Shan couldn't stop him.

"Wang Chao, don't scare me." Shen Tang stared at Gu Chi seriously, trying to find evidence that he was talking nonsense. She didn't even notice that the tip of the pen soaked with ink had left a black mark on the corner of the memorial. She seemed to be comforting herself, "Believe in Wu Hui's ability."

Chu Yao has always been steady.

Over the years, I have been studying [The Bright Side of the Dark] and simulating various examination questions for the Consummation Ceremony. With so much preparation and countless predictions, there must be a question that is somewhat relevant, right?

"It is precisely because of the belief in Wuhui that the birth is bound to be difficult." Gu Chi said this to prepare Shen Tang mentally. "There is no mediocre scholar among the second-rank scholars in history. Each scholar has his own strengths. Doesn't your lord think that [Liu An Hua Ming] seems too mediocre and weak among them?"

The way of a scholar is not controlled by the scholar's subjective will and is passively triggered. It is rarely triggered, and the information about the future is vague, which is not as good as Cui Mi. It is nothing for ordinary scholars, but it is too inappropriate for Chu Yao.

It’s hard to live up to the reputation.

Even if Chu Yao can reach the top without the assistance of a powerful scholar, it would still be difficult compared to others, right?
Strength or weakness still has an impact on Chu Yao.

Shen Tang: "..."

I couldn't refute it for a moment.

Even though Shen Tang never cared, he had to admit that Chu Yao's scholarly ways were indeed a bit behind his own talent and strength. Gu Chi reminded him again: "Think about Lingde."

Lin Feng's completion ceremony was the most difficult one known, because the invisible condition behind the ceremony was to unify the continent, which was even more difficult than Luan Xin's. As a second-rank upper-level scholar, Chu Yao's completion ceremony would not be any less difficult.

Even if it is not difficult at the beginning, Chu Yao's obsession will increase the difficulty of completing the ceremony - because Chu Yao is too eager to help Shen Tang complete the great cause of unification, and his subconscious longing will magnify his desire.

The stronger the desire, the greater the variables it will bring.

"My Lord, be prepared."

Shen Tang showed a rare stern look: "Look at the tide!"

She tried to calm herself down: "I believe him."

The house leak happened to rain overnight, and the ship was late and hit the wind again.

Before Shen Tang could calm down and sort out his thoughts, a messenger came to report that Kang Jishou wanted to see him. Shen Tang rubbed his brows and said, "Let him come over. It's better not to have bad news."

The messenger hesitated: "Military Advisor, please come over."

Shen Tang: "..."

She could only leave the matter to Gu Chi for now.

"Why don't you go over there?" Shen Tang thought Kang Shi was being mysterious and wanted him to meet someone, but when he got over he found out that he was the only one there. The news he reported was important but not extremely urgent.

Kang Shi said awkwardly: "Aren't you afraid?"

He also worried that his luck would affect his colleagues.

It's okay if it's a plague on normal days. Anyway, no one has been killed in all these years. It's different now. If Chu Yao gets into trouble, his master will skin him alive. For the sake of caution, Kang Shi should stay away from him and be safe.

Shen Tang: "..."

"...It doesn't have to be like this."

She was worried about Wuhui, but she would not vent her anger on innocent people.

There was no need for Kang Shi to be so cautious.

"...Wuhui's current situation is somewhat similar to my situation back then. Can Wangchao see any clues?"
