Daxianguan

Chapter 754
Chu Xian nodded: "I talked to Zhuge Hong last night. He is a good person, but it's a pity that Zhuge Yanshan expected too much from his illegitimate son."

"Bullshit!" Kong Qian laughed and said, "In my opinion, the Zhuge family is greedy for power and wants to return to the top, but I think they are just a dream."

"Okay, let's not talk about these disappointing things, Chu Xian, you can save yourself from danger this time, that's better than anything else, but in the past ten months, besides Zhuge's family, there are still some troublesome things waiting for you to deal with." Cui Huanzhi at this time Just a reminder, what a character Chu Xian is, he naturally understands it.

When he was the servant of the household department, in fact, he encountered a witch curse crisis just after he took office, so he had to hand over the power to other people.

This time when he comes back, there will definitely be a handover problem. It was easy to hand over this thing back then, but it would be difficult to get it back. What's more, all the errands in the household department are fat and oily. Who doesn't want to hold the power, So others may not be willing to hand over power.

This incident alone was enough to give Chu Xian a headache for a while, and Cui Huanzhi was talking about this incident as well.

"Let's go, let's go in first, the court meeting is about to begin." Cui Huanzhi said at this time, and the three of them entered together.

Chu Xian's appearance is indeed shocking. At the beginning, some people didn't recognize Chu Xian, or they thought that Chu Xian used some kind of illusion to change his appearance.

But there were many Taoists present who used various secret methods to see, and they all knew that this was Chu Xian's real appearance.

At the moment, everyone knows that the rumor outside that Chu Xian fell under the long-should-eating witch spell lost by the witch clan is true. There is also this kind of witch spell in this world, which has the terrifying power of swallowing life essence.

With Chu Xian's current status, he naturally couldn't stand below like before.

He is already an immortal official at the Shoufu Pavilion level, and at this moment he also has his own exclusive immortal seat. At this moment, he is high above, looking at the many officials below.

This is one of the privileges of the Shoufu Pavilion.

This position alone is enough to make people envious. It can be said that it is extremely majestic. It is no wonder that too many officials dream of stepping into the Shoufu Pavilion one day and becoming the core member of the highest power.

Chu Xian looked to the left and right, and saw several officials of the Shoufu Pavilion, who also nodded slightly to Chu Xian.

Here, Chu Xian met the servants of the six departments. Generally speaking, there were two servants of the six departments. Next to Chu Xian was another servant of the household department, Liu Jiwen.

This was the one who took over Chu Xian's position temporarily.

Liu Jiwen is also a veteran fairy official. He looks more than 60 years old on the outside and is very dignified. Compared with other people who nodded to Chu Xian, this Liu Jiwen chose to turn a blind eye.

Chu Xian probably knew what the other party was thinking, but he didn't say much, let alone express dissatisfaction.

It belongs to one's own power, and the other party has to hand it over, or not, there is no room for negotiation. Of course, this Liu Jiwen obviously knows this too. The other party knows that he will have to hand it back sooner or later, but before handing it over, he can deliberately make things difficult, or change his position. It is possible to change some jurisdictional content.

Officials hope that the more power they have, the better. This is a common problem, and Chu Xian himself has it.

Afterwards, Da Sima, Da Situ, the General, and General Yu all came, and they all looked at Chu Xian and nodded their heads. After a while, Grand Master Xiao Yu came in person.

Grand Master Xiao Yu is here, so the court meeting can naturally begin officially.

As for the court meeting, it is natural to discuss what should be discussed at the court meeting, which are some important national affairs. As for Chu Xian's return, he only mentioned one sentence, and other things, such as whether Chu Xian has been cursed by a witch, whether he will die soon, etc. Didn't mention it.

Zhuge Hong is a fourth-rank immortal official, so he is naturally qualified to participate in the court meeting, but he also did not say a word, obviously he and Chu Xian have reached a tacit understanding.

But Zhuge Hong's silence doesn't mean that other people will dismiss this matter.

Over there Zhuge Yanshan couldn't bear it, stepped forward at this moment and said: "I have something to do with you, I feel it's very unfair, so I can't complain."

Zhuge Yanshan, as the head of the Zhuge family, is only a fifth-rank official in Jingzhou at this moment. His official position is not high, but he is also qualified to participate in the court meeting.

Seeing this, Zhuge Hong's expression changed, and he wanted to stop him, but finally he sighed and said nothing.

Outsiders could see that Zhuge Hong was in a difficult situation, neither was he blocked, nor was he not blocked.

But Zhuge Yanshan has come out, so it's okay not to let him speak, an immortal official said: "Zhuge Yanshan, what's the matter with you, but it's okay to say."

At this moment, Zhuge Yanshan looked up at the fairy seat where Chu Xian was, his eyes were full of blaze.

In his opinion, this fairy seat should belong to their Zhuge family.

"Then the lower officials said that the Holy Dynasty ruled the world based on officials, and the Shoufu Pavilion was the most respected. Therefore, the immortal officials in the Shoufu Pavilion are all existences that can determine the fate of the Holy Dynasty. They are the pinnacle of officials. , should the selection of officials of the first auxiliary cabinet be cautious?" Zhuge Yanshan asked.

The big Situ on the stage nodded: "That's natural, Zhuge Yanshan, what exactly do you want to say, don't beat around the bush, the time for the court meeting is limited, and there are still many important issues to discuss."

Since Zhuge Yanshan dared to come out, he naturally prepared his speech long ago.So even if Da Situ expressed dissatisfaction and cynicism, he was indifferent. In his opinion, this risk was worth taking.Because once they succeed, their Zhuge family may turn around. As long as Zhuge Hong can enter the Shoufu Pavilion, even if he doesn't make it to the fifth rank, it will be worth it.

The Shoufu Pavilion is too important.

"The lower officials heard that Mr. Chu Xian, the left servant of the household department, fell into the life-eating witch curse of the false emperor Li Qianlong, and his lifespan was running out. It can even be said that his life is not long. Although this situation is regrettable, it is also a loss for the Holy Dynasty. , but it also shows that Master Chu Xian is no longer suitable for a high position, and he should abdicate earlier, after all, under such circumstances, Master Chu Xian should not be able to focus on official duties."

Zhuge Yanshan said directly, but it was straightforward, that is to say, since Chu Xian's life is not long, he should give up his seat earlier and give it to someone more suitable.

Who is a better fit?

During this period of time, Zhuge's family jumped up and down, and their thoughts and goals were already known to passers-by.

Zhuge Yanshan was already going all out at this time. He did this because he had received the definite news that Chu Xian had a witch spell.

Of Chu Xian's situation, obviously Grand Master Xiao Yu had informed Da Situ and the others long ago, so they all knew that Chu Xian was fine now, but unfortunately, it seemed that Zhuge Yanshan didn't know about this crucial news.

It's ridiculous.

However, since Zhuge Yanshan raised questions at the court meeting, he still had to be treated seriously, so Da Situ looked at Chu Xian and said, "Chu Shilang, you can talk about this matter yourself."

Indeed, for Chu Xian himself, it was the most suitable.

Chu Xian got up from the fairy seat at this time, but he was still standing on the high platform, overlooking the officials.Due to the gaze, no one below dared to look at him. Chu Xian's current appearance was even more majestic. If he didn't know the details, he would think that this was a veteran immortal official whose lifespan was over three or four hundred years old.

"The false emperor Li Qianlong did cast a spell on me before he died last time, but the holy pilgrimage magic is unrivaled in the world, how can it not overwhelm the witchcraft of the witch clan? Change, it seems to be old, but the actual cultivation base is stable, and the witchcraft has been sealed, so there is no need for you adults to worry."

With a few simple words, Chu Xian expressed his meaning. These few words are very powerful and ingenious. If anyone doubts it again, doesn't it mean that Shengchao's own immortal method is not as good as witchcraft?
This time, Chu Xian has dug a hole. It depends on whether you dare to jump down and continue to question. Of course, Chu Xian is happy to see the result.

Zhuge Yanshan jumped out at the super meeting to openly challenge him, which was also expected by Chu Xian.Because Chu Xian knew that Zhuge Hong would not tell Zhuge Yanshan the result of his conversation with him yesterday.

As for why, Chu Xian knew.

Zhuge Hong was an illegitimate child, and in the first 30 years of his life, he lived a very hard life. It is said that Zhuge Hong's biological mother died of serious illness when he was 25 years old.

This was definitely the biggest blow to Zhuge Hong.

Who caused the miserable life in the first half of his life?Zhuge Hong knew better than anyone else that if the old prodigal son Zhuge Yanshan hadn't lingered in the flowers and committed this crime, his mother would not have died prematurely because of supporting him in studying and practicing.

Zhuge Hong is definitely a filial son, and he is also a person who can calculate and understand. Therefore, he may only hate the Zhuge family.

Let me ask, if Zhuge Yanshan could take revenge without him having to do it himself, that would naturally be what Zhuge Hong wanted to see the most.

Zhuge Hong himself certainly cannot take revenge.

No matter how much you think in your heart, you can't do such things as 'disloyal and unfilial', or even 'rebellious' in the eyes of outsiders, especially since he is an official of the Holy Dynasty, he must pay more attention to this aspect.

So strictly speaking, Zhuge Hong has been "enduring" these years.

Last night when he visited Chu Xian, it was obvious that the flags and drums had died down, and he would no longer want to enter the Shoufu Pavilion unrealistically, but he never talked to Zhuge Yanshan about these things after he went back.

That's why Zhuge Yanshan made such a 'foolish' move at the court meeting that he would definitely be slapped in the face.

After Chu Xian made his statement, if Zhuge Yanshan stopped here, it would only be embarrassing, and there would be no real loss, but obviously, Zhuge Hong knew the character of his cheap father quite well.

Conceited, arrogant, paranoid, even to the point of stupidity.

Sure enough, after Chu Xian finished speaking, Zhuge Yanshan actually sneered, and said, "Lord Chu, why do you insist on taking over this official position? The life-eating witch curse of the witch clan is extremely powerful, and ordinary people may not know it. But coincidentally, I have actually done research on this witchcraft, and those who fall under this witchcraft will surely die, so Master Chu, you still..."

Before he finished speaking, Cui Huanzhi snorted coldly, and said angrily: "It's ridiculous, Minister Chu just said very clearly that witchcraft is not as profound as fairy magic, and he has sealed the witchcraft, so it's fine. Zhuge Yanshan, you have been talking nonsense several times, what is your intention? Also, your words are very similar to the rumors that are spreading outside, and anyone with a discerning eye knows that your Zhuge family is fanning the flames."
