Chapter 153: Promotion at Midnight

The sun is setting in the west and the sky is getting dark. Another day passed quickly.

After a busy day, Zhao gasped and collapsed on the recliner. In his mind, he had already greeted the eighteen generations of his ancestors from top to bottom in the entire officialdom.

Especially the officials who participated in the oath of no war, they were so stupid. These people really didn't know how heavy a dozen cannons were. Of course, Lu Wenyu was also soaked by the rain and dew. He had a mouth but didn’t know how to speak? Would you have warned me earlier that I would carry a cannon all over the mountain?

"Dog officials, they are all dog officials. They cost me fourteen thousand taels less... and the third prince, I will fight you..."

Thinking that the third prince was his mother's first empress, and fearing that he would be criticized by others, Zhao still stopped talking. A gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall, otherwise it will be bad if he gets into trouble.

After resting for a few minutes, Zhao Jiu woke up after being hungry for most of the day.

"Okay, okay, silly dog! You think about eating every day, why don't you dare to bite Lu Wenyu? It's really a waste of money!"

Zhaocai scratched the snow: Ah! I?

Forgetting that his dog was in pain, he reluctantly got up and opened the door to buy food. Standing at the door to attract wealth, it looks like a fortune-seeking stone.

"Sir, are you back from a business trip?" Ever since the restaurant owner saw the green suit, his attitude towards Zhao Jiu became extremely respectful. Looking at him like that, I wish I could hang a full-length portrait of Zhao Jiu in the lobby.

I am so proud to shout: Look, I also have a backer and a background.

In this dynasty, you still need a husband!

Zhao just waved his hand indifferently, he must be magnanimous! He joked softly, "The shopkeeper is out of touch now, isn't he? If I want to arrest someone... there's no point in calling me my biological father. Hahahaha"

The shopkeeper and the diners eating their meals had their mouths twitching. The truth is this, but it doesn’t sound good.

"Just kidding, we are all neighbors, how can I be so selfless? Just kidding, don't take it to heart."

"Pack four or five dishes, a pot of rice wine and a pound of white rice, and take them back to eat. Please help the shopkeeper."

Seeing that Zhao was just joking, the shopkeeper breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly ordered the boy, "Go and prepare it for your lord. Please add more."

Soon the food and wine were packed, and the shopkeeper handed the food box to Zhao Jiu. He took the food box and put four taels of silver on the counter. He smiled at the diners and said, "Eat well and drink well. Come here often in the future." Then he ignored everyone.

Carrying the food box and walking to the yard in the snow, it should be said that the market atmosphere is the most nourishing.

As usual, he ate three-quarters and Lucky ate the rest. After eating and drinking, I made a pot of tea and took out the graphic novel I bought from the space to kill the boring time.

"Damn it, why are the protagonists surrounded by beauties? Is this naughty guy still a killer?"

"Hey, dear, there are still some girls who are brought into the palace to assassinate you? That's incredible..."

After complaining for a while, I lost interest. This is the only bad thing about this world. When it gets dark, you can either crawl into your own bed, crawl into someone else's blanket, or spend money to crawl into your bed. It's no fun at all.

I must listen to music tomorrow, boring life needs art!

Since there is nothing to do, just practice. Coming down from the mountain this time, he gained a lot, especially the bizarre moves of different sects, which opened his eyes.

I vaguely feel that I am already close to the first level, so I simply concentrate on cultivating immortality and see if I can enter the first level today.

Sit cross-legged, close your eyes and meditate, and let your true energy flow throughout your body as the exercise proceeds. When the surroundings are silent, it is easy to enter the state. With each exhalation and inhalation, the true energy gradually flows into the major points of the body.

Although my body is still intact, my self-feeling has improved slightly. Soon Zhao became immersed in it and could not feel the passage of time.

"Woof woof woof..."

The man in the pavilion kept barking for money, interrupting Zhao Jiu's practice. He wasn't angry either, he bent down and rubbed Zhaocai's back.

Just now, he sensed that there were people outside the courtyard, and there were quite a few of them. Judging from this posture, the yard is to be enclosed.

After comforting him, he stood up and stretched his numb legs before walking towards the door.

When you open the door, you can see that they are all packed with eunuchs. Zhao was puzzled. It was the Jin Yiwei who wanted to arrest him. What happened to the eunuchs?

Could it be that Lu Wenyu... really rebelled?

I couldn't figure out the key, so I simply asked, "What are you doing? Don't you know who I am? How dare you surround my house!"

"Master Zhao, we surrounded you just because we knew who you were. We would like to advise Master Zhao to go back and change into official uniform to make yourself more respectable." The red eunuch who was surrounded laughed.

Zhao immediately recognized that this person was Eunuch Shi, the eunuch of the Supervisor of Ceremonies.

Bitter. Zhao Ji smiled bitterly in his heart. These words can often be heard in the confessions of his previous life. Even the connection process is clear to me. Isn't this just an arrest?

But he still didn't say anything, just nodded to Eunuch Shi, turned around and went back to the yard to change into his official uniform.

What else can be done? I can't run away, not to mention my life or death is uncertain. I really didn't commit any rebellion! You can't say that it's wrong to accept money to do things, right? If a killer doesn't accept money, then he's not a perverted murderer!

After putting on his official uniform and getting dressed neatly, he stood at the door and looked at Eunuch Shi, saying, "Eunuch Shi, can you tell me if you have anything to say now?"

"Wait, Mr. Zhao." Eunuch Shi cherished his words like gold. After finishing speaking, he stood under the umbrella and said no more.

For a moment, the sound of horse hooves was heard in the distance, and all the eunuchs smiled and said, "Old ancestors."

"What are you doing? Who asked you to surround Mr. Zhao's home?" Eunuch Feng walked over lightly and couldn't help but scolded.

When he turned around and saw Zhao Jue in front of the door, he immediately changed his face and said with a smile, "Don't mind, Mr. Zhao, our family may have made a mistake and frightened Mr. Zhao, please forgive me."

Everyone has said this, so what else can Zhao say? He can't let others knock him, right? So he cupped his hands and said with a smile, "Eunuch Feng is too polite. I thought I made a mistake. I was talking to Eunuch Shi. It would be nice if Eunuch Feng came. It was really a false alarm."

"Haha, the flood has washed away the Dragon King Temple, and the whole family no longer recognizes each other." Eunuch Feng's words seemed to be a rebuke, but it was more to express his attitude to Zhao.

It means that if something happens, it happens, but it is a good thing. Otherwise, who would be with your family?

Then he smiled and said, "Mr. Zhao is wearing the official uniform correctly. It seems that Mr. Lu has also been exposed."

"Jinyiwei Zhenfu envoy Zhao Muzhi accepted the order!"

Zhao was startled when he heard the word "receive the order", but he quickly knelt down in a polite manner.

Eunuch Feng didn't waste any time. He took out the imperial edict from his sleeve and read out: "The imperial edict of Jinyiwei is Zhao Muzhi. He is loyal to the public, has outstanding military exploits, and has great merit for his hard work. He is promoted to the Jinyiwei command and is awarded the title of General Zhaowu. He is also given the flying fish suit, He wields a sword to show his achievements, I appreciate this!"

"Master Zhao, thank you."

After hearing this, Zhao recovered from the shock and kowtowed to thank him. "I accept the decree to thank you. Long live my emperor..."

Eunuch Feng helped Zhao Jiu up, patted him on the shoulder, and said with a smile, "Congratulations to Mr. Zhao on his promotion."

Zhao wisely took out a thousand-tael silver note, but Eunuch Feng blocked it and said, "Master Zhao, you are being polite. People in the same family do not speak the same language."

Talk about it and look at Zhao Ju with a smile. Zhao Ju knew it all and quickly put his hands in his hands and said with a smile, "Yes, yes, one family, one family. Eunuch Feng is right."

The two looked at each other and smiled, they were a family...
