Beizhen Envoy
Author: The Tenth Commandment
Beizhen Envoy
Three days later, Ji Chen's achievements in Qinghe County have been tallied up.
Contribution points, three thousand.
The reward is three thousand silver.
Star Steel, one spindle
Silver Yuan Dan, one piece.
Promoted to one level, black flag official, eighth rank
Monthly salary, fifteen taels.
Although his position was only promoted by one level, his grade jumped two levels in a row, from the ninth grade to the eighth grade, which was beyond Ji Chen's expectation.
Under normal circumstances, people start from the eighth rank first, and then they are promoted to the eighth rank if they have enough qualifications or have made great achievements. But he jumped directly to the eighth rank as soon as he came up, which is a bit abnormal.
The more you give, the more you have to pay, Ji Chen always firmly believes in this saying.
Under the leadership of Xie Anbing, Ji Chen received all the items.
New official clothes, two sets of black brocade clothes, black fabric, white lining, red collar and everted cuffs, with auspicious cloud embroidery. The official clothes are no longer simply black, there are some simple embroideries, and the embroidery is also auspicious cloud patterns.
There is a small bronze flag on the left chest.
The small bronze flag represents the identity of the flag officer.
At the same time, Ji Chen also got an opportunity to enter the arsenal of the Demon Suppression Division.
In addition, this time there is also a Silver Yuan Dan in the reward, which is a type of elixir refined from the inner elixir of monsters. It is specially refined by the alchemists within the Demon Suppression Department. It can be directly
After refining and absorbing, one pill can last for one month of cultivation.
"The governor wants to see you!" Xie Anbing said.
Ji Chen was a little surprised, "'The Governor, when do you want to see me?"
"Now!"
"Uh... Okay then! I have to trouble you to lead the way!"
Xie Anbing led the way, and Ji Chen followed behind, walking towards the government office where the governor was.
Zhenyaosi occupies a very large area. Of all the buildings in Liangzhou City, except for the academy, Zhenfusi's buildings are the most extensive.
This is just a building on the surface. There are several levels of prisons underground in Zhenfusi, which are called hells, and some big demons are imprisoned in them.
Moreover, the building height of Zhenfusi is second only to the academy.
"Mr. Xie, can you tell me why the governor is looking for me?"
Ji Chen was a little confused. Logically speaking, he was not qualified to meet the governor yet, so he felt a little uneasy.
"Maybe it's for the Shenhuo Cult. That's my guess. I don't know the details. I'll find out later when I see the Governor."
The two passed through layers of courtyards and corridors, and finally arrived at the place where the governor was.
This is a large but quiet courtyard with man-made rockeries and water diversion to build a lake. There are schools of fish and cranes swimming in the lake.
The two of them came to a door, and Xie Anbing reached out and knocked on the door.
"Sir, Ji Chen is here!"
"Come in!"
A peaceful voice came from inside.
Xie Anbing opened the door and went in first, followed by Ji Chen.
This is a study room with simple furnishings. In addition to a desk and a bookshelf, there are only a few books on the bookshelf.
A middle-aged man was sitting on a chair, reading a file in his hand.
This person is the governor of the North Town of Liangzhou Prefecture, Xu Yuanzhen, the absolute boss of Liangzhou Prefecture.
All the forces in Liangzhou Mansion are under his jurisdiction. From the establishment of a sect to the establishment of a Taoist temple, his approval is required. Otherwise, it will be illegal to establish a sect, and the Demon Suppression Department will come to your door the next day.
, directly destroyed.
Including the amnesty of some mountain gods, river gods, and land gods, he needs to write a memorial to the Holy Emperor and obtain the Holy Emperor's approval.
This shows how powerful his power is.
Ji Chen's eyes fell on the dossier in Xu Yuanzhen's hand, and he recognized it at a glance. It was a report dossier written by himself, about his detailed journey to Qinghe County.
Xie Anbing bowed his hands and said, "Sir, Ji Chen is here!"
Ji Chen also hurriedly bowed his hands and saluted, "I've seen the governor before, sir."
The Holy Emperor of Great Xia stipulated that no one with ordinary status or above should kneel down when meeting an official, and no one with high status should kneel down before meeting the Holy Emperor.
Ji was not only a commoner, but also a scholar, so naturally he did not need to kneel down.
Xu Yuanzhen put down the file in his hand and looked up at Ji Chen.
At this moment, Ji Chen felt as if his hair was standing on end, as if he was being targeted by a great terror.
But it only took a moment for this feeling to disappear.
Ji Chen was shocked in his heart. He was worthy of being the top boss in Liangzhou Mansion. Just one look in his eyes almost made him collapse.
"Ji Chen, whose courtesy name is Beigui, has an innate Taoist body and a Confucian and Taoist holy body. He uses his body to carry his words, which is rare in ancient and modern times. He has good calligraphy, a school of his own, good poetry, and outstanding literary talent. It is a pity not to continue studying."
As soon as Xu Yuanzhen opened his mouth, there was a series of praises, which made Ji Chen feel a little embarrassed.
"Xiaguan has not given up studying and is preparing for spring in two years' time."
Xu Yuanzhen nodded, "If our Demon Suppression Division can produce the top pick, it will be a good story."
"Your Excellency is too optimistic about me. I don't dare to expect to be number one. It's a blessing to be on the list."
Xu Yuanzhen said: "There is no need to belittle oneself. One must have a courageous heart to move forward. Fighting for the road is like hundreds of millions of people crossing a single-plank bridge. Without a brave and diligent heart, sooner or later they will fall under the bridge."
"If you are a lowly official and receive instruction, you will do your best!"
Xu Yuanzhen nodded, and then said to Xie Anbing: "You go back first, I have something to tell Ji Chen."
"I'll take my leave!" Xie Anbing hurriedly resigned with fists clasped, closing the door at the same time.
Only Xu Yuanzhen and Ji Chen were left in the study.
Xu Yuanzhen said: "What do you think of the Shenhuo Cult?"
Ji Chen thought for a while and replied: "Extremist people, from the perspective of the road, they are right, they are just seeking the truth, but their methods are too extreme, but from the perspective of the people, they should be killed, their morality is not based on the public opinion."
allowed."
Xu Yuanzhen nodded, very satisfied with Ji Chen's answer.
"The people are the foundation. To shake public opinion is to shake the foundation of the country. I read your file and you think there is something wrong with the Liangzhou Prefecture Demon Division."
"I don't dare to judge arbitrarily!"
Xu Yuanzhen smiled and said, "Don't you dare to judge? The file makes it very clear!"
"I really don't dare to judge anything without evidence."
Xu Yuanzhen didn't speak anymore. He understood what Ji Chen meant, so he took out a dossier from the bookshelf behind him and handed it to Ji Chen.
"This is the file handed over by Hejian Mansion. Take a look at it."
Ji Chen opened the file and looked through it.
Xu Yuanzhen also opened his mouth to explain: "Hejian Mansion is close to the Northern Wilderness, and the forces are mixed. There are no specific towns there, so there is no official suppression. It has always been a three-no-thing zone. But more than ten years ago, I supported a noble family, Hejian Mo
Family, suppressing the Hejian Mansion, giving face to both black and white. The head of the Mo family, Mo Fang Huaiming, is the head of the Mo family on the surface, but in fact he is the flag officer of our Demon Suppression Department. He has two sons, both of whom are juniors in the Demon Suppression Department.
flag."
"A few days ago, Mo Fanghuai died suddenly. His two sons could not suppress the Hejian Mansion. The Mo family was in crisis, and Hejian Mansion began to be in chaos. I want you to deal with this matter, calm down the chaos in Hejian Mansion, and investigate
Because of the cause of Mo Fanghuai's death, we are trying to support a family. The only requirement is that the family we support must be under the control of our Demon Suppression Division."
"Besides, before you go, you can go to the arsenal and weapons depot and set off when you are ready!"
Xu Yuanzhen took out a bronze mirror and handed it to Ji Chen.
"This is a magic weapon called a projection mirror. You can contact me through this magic weapon."
Ji Chen put away the mirror, and Xu Yuanzhen gave Ji Chen a handprint and magic spell to open the projection mirror.
