In April, apricot blossoms bloom.
After the results of the examination were released in the imperial capital, they spread all over the country within two or three days, and the good news was delivered to the homes of new scholars.
On this day, the Chen family in the east of Guangping City was extremely lively. The officials beat gongs and drums, drank and sang to announce the good news, and the county guards, county magistrates and other parents came to visit in person to congratulate him, attracting countless neighbors to watch and envy him.
The Chen family's grandmother and Chen's mother, Zheng, cried with joy.
Both of their parents came from scholarly families, and they were well versed in the imperial examinations. If they passed the examination, they would become Jinshi. No matter how bad they were, they were from the same Jinshi family.
Chen Pengju, who came second in the general examination, is expected to be crowned Three Tripods and have the appearance of a cabinet prime minister.
It was really smoke coming out of the ancestral graves.
Xu was so excited that the Chen family's grandmother and mother, Zheng, who was usually quite shrewd and steady, was a little confused.
Even though the two elders have seen the world, they are a little confused at the moment. "It's hit, my son is hit" and "My husband is finally hit" are constantly swirling in his mind.
Grandmother Chen's mother, Mrs. Zheng, was too excited to greet the guests. In the end, it was naturally Chu Chen who came forward to entertain the county magistrate, county magistrate and other officials of Guangping's parents and guests from all walks of life.
As the dean of Guangping County's Department of Ghosts and Gods, Chu Chen had dealt with the county guards and county magistrates, and he was able to entertain them with ease and grace, showing that he had a scholarly family background.
"Dean Chu, congratulations. Your Majesty and your younger brother are both Jinshis in the same discipline. Father and son have both passed the exam. It's really enviable!"
The governor of Guangping held his hands in congratulations, and the envy on his face was not polite, but genuine.
In the past, the Chen family in Guangping was inconspicuous in Guangping County. It was just a scholarly family with ordinary farming and studying. It was an ordinary noble family. It was not a powerful family at all.
However, in just a few years, the Chen family has undergone earth-shaking changes and has become more prominent.
The eldest daughter became the direct descendant of Guigu, a heroine, and her father and son passed the imperial examination. The second son of the Chen family in front of him also has a bright future in the fairy court.
The military, the imperial court, the Immortal Court... the Chen family is in full bloom, and its development momentum is so rapid.
"Thank you, Lord Sheriff. My father and younger brother were able to make the list, thanks to the guidance of Lord Sheriff. Guangzhou has been much more stable in the past few years under your rule."
Chu Chen said clichés and greeted politely.
"Hey, I don't dare to take credit. The local security is thanks to your Ghosts and Gods Division."
The Lord Sheriff waved his hands repeatedly and said with a smile:
"Dean Chu, in my opinion, this is not a double happiness for you, but a triple happiness. I'm afraid you can go one step further this time and be promoted to deputy capital manager."
"The governor is joking, I am still young..."
...
After some pleasantries, the guests of the Chen Mansion had a good time and left one after another. However, the excitement of the Chen Mansion did not diminish at all.
Even when the lanterns are on, the Chen family is still brightly lit, firecrackers are in full swing, and there are endless cheers.
After Chu Chen finished entertaining the guests, he left the Chen family and returned to Yunshui Residence.
Originally, he planned to stay at the Chen family tonight to celebrate with his mother's clan members.
However, his master, Taoist Master Xu Ping, wanted to see him, so he did not stay long and hurried to Yunshui Residence.
On the way back, Chu Chen was in a very happy mood.
The future of my father and younger brother is bright, and his worries in the world are lessened. He is relaxed and has clear thoughts.
"Master, we are back, why are you calling me and senior brother?"
The little ghost yelled at the top of his lungs before entering Yunshui Residence. He was a little depressed. He finally had a chance to beg for incense today, and he only got a few dozen incense sticks before he was called back by the master. It was really disappointing.
Chu Chen swaggered into Yunshui Residence. As soon as he entered the main room, a look of surprise appeared on his face.
In Yunshui's main room, Han Chen, Taoist Xu Ping, and Taoist Yun Lei were sitting and relaxing. When they saw Chu Chen coming back, all three of them smiled.
"Fellow Daoist Chu (Zhenyi), congratulations."
Chu Chen also smiled: "Same joy!"
After some polite greetings, Chu Chen sat down on the second seat and became curious:
"Han Duguan, why are you out of seclusion? Why don't you meditate for a few more days?"
"No, in a few days I will go back to the Taoist Temple of the Imperial Capital with my master to cultivate quietly and stabilize my cultivation. I have agreed to leave tomorrow. I didn't plan to go back to Guangping County this time, but I felt uneasy if I didn't thank you personally, so I went back quietly. Guangping County."
After saying that, Han Chen felt quite embarrassed and said:
"However, I didn't expect that I would be the one to be abrupt when your family encounters such a big happy event."
Chu Chen waved his hands repeatedly: "Han Du is joking, I'm busy with my family affairs, it doesn't matter. As for thanking you, that's not necessary. Senior Yulou gave you a big gift, I..."
Han Chen waved his hand: "You can accept it. This is Master's way of expressing his gratitude to me. This time, my breakthrough was quite dangerous. Thanks to you for lending me [Five Elements Embryo] for emergencies. The love involved is not something that a thousand-year-old spirit bean can do." Comparable."
Seeing the conversation between the two, Taoist Xu Ping and Yun Lei heard some clues, and were all surprised.
Han Duguan's breakthrough is actually related to Chu Chen?
For a moment, Brother Xu Ping's eyes met, with a look of joy on their faces.
What a great opportunity!
Helping others become enlightened is no small matter of friendship. In the world of immortality, this kind of kindness is extremely important. Zhenyi has a big backer.
Perhaps because of Chu Chen's fate, the four of them talked quite harmoniously.
Taoist Yunlei cupped his hands and said:
"Han Du Guan, after you are promoted to the Imperial Capital Taoist Academy, I don't know what the next arrangements will be made by the superiors. I wonder if it is convenient to reveal a few details."
"Today's transfer decree has been drawn up, and I'm afraid it's on the way now. It doesn't hurt to tell you."
Han Chen smiled and continued:
"After I leave, fellow Taoist Li Guang will take over the post of Guangping Du Guan, taking charge of the affairs of demons, demons and gods throughout the county."
Chu Chen, Taoist Xu Ping, and Taoist Yun Lei were not surprised when they heard this. It was expected that Deputy Du Guan Li Guang would become a regular official.
"Taoist Master Cang Qingzi, Taoist Master, has been transferred to the deputy director of Guangping County's Ghost and God Department. He will be in charge of the Tianhao Courtyard and assist the director."
"Eh~"
Taoist Yun Lei had a look of disappointment on his face. Although he didn't have high hopes, he still felt very unhappy when he learned that he had not been chosen.
Seeing this, Han Chen guessed Taoist Yunlei's thoughts and laughed loudly:
"Fellow Taoist Yunlei sighed too early. The first deputy governor of Donglai County unfortunately passed away while participating in the East China Sea Feast. Xianting is preparing to transfer you to take over his position. Donglai County is a little smaller than our Guangping County, but it is still considered a cross-border one." An important step has been passed.”
Taoist Yunlei was inexplicably surprised when he heard this. He thought there was no hope, but he never expected that there would be an unexpected surprise.
"Congratulations to my uncle (senior brother)!"
Chu Chen and Xu Ping cupped their hands to congratulate each other.
"You two don't have to rush to congratulate, you have a great chance."
Han Chen smiled and said rather mysteriously.
Xu Ping and Chu Chen were startled. They also have a happy event?
Taoist Yunlei was the most excited and couldn't help but ask:
"Han Du Guan, could it be that my head brother took over as the dean of the Taoist Academy, and Zhen Yi was promoted to deputy Du Guan, in charge of the Huang Hao Yuan?"
"Hahaha~ I originally proposed this, and Senior Governor Changfeng of the state also approved it. However, a small accident happened."
When Han Chen said this, a strange look appeared on his face:
"Our Qingzhou Ghost and God Si Feizhang reported it. As a result, there were some changes in the decree of the Immortal Court. Fellow Taoist Yun Shui was promoted to deputy governor, in charge of Huanghaoyuan, and Fellow Daoist Chu was appointed as the mountain chief of the Taoist Court."
Taoist Yunlei, Taoist Xu Ping, and Chu Chen looked surprised.
"What's going on? Why are they reversed?"
Han Chen smiled, his eyes fell on Chu Chen, and he said leisurely:
"This is the decree of Mr. Tianshi Mingjing, ordering fellow Taoist Chu to be transferred to a Taoist academy, where he will cultivate diligently and educate others!"
Xu Ping and Taoist Yun Lei were startled. Mr. Ming Jing, the Heavenly Master of Immortal Court...
"Is this the Crown Prince...?"
Chu Chen and Han Chen nodded in unison.
Especially Chu Chen was greatly surprised. He never expected that Mr. Ming Jing would still remember him and even make arrangements for him personally.
Everyone in the room was very knowledgeable and understood that the meaning behind it was more than just being promoted to the dean of the Taoist Academy.
What is this called? This is called Jane being in the emperor's heart and cultivating in secret according to the order!
For a while, the room was a little quiet.
At this time, the little kid came out and looked at Han Chen eagerly and excitedly:
"Han Duguan, do you mean that my senior brothers, masters, and uncles have all been promoted?"
Han Chen knew the kid and nodded kindly:
"Yes, they have all been promoted..."
Before he could say anything, he only heard a "thump".
What follows is...
"Dong dong dong!"
"Dong dong dong!"
"Dong dong dong!"
