Wang Shenling already had an opinion on Chu Xian, so he planned to use his own strength to suppress it at the cabinet meeting and frustrate the other party's spirit, but he didn't expect that the matter was self-defeating, so instead of suppressing it, he also let Xiao Yu use this reason to start the official reform.

Ordinary people can only see this matter for now, but an old officialdom like Wang Shenling can sniff out something different.

Xiao Yu This is just the beginning, I am afraid that there will be greater actions in the future, that is to say, the reform of the official system of the Criminal Department is just a beginning, and in the future, it is likely that changes will be carried out in other places, and at that time, it will be tantamount to a huge earthquake for the officialdom of the entire Holy Dynasty.

Therefore, Wang Shenling did not pay special attention to Chu Xian's affairs at the moment, but was thinking about the meaning behind Xiao Yu's actions.

Is this Xiao Yu's whim, or is it premeditated, if it is premeditated, is it Xiao Yu's meaning, or Lu Yan's meaning?

The most important thing is, will you gain or lose in this change?

......

Chu Xian naturally didn't know about these open and secret battles at the Shoufu Pavilion meeting, he behaved like usual every day, but in fact, he had been prepared for a long time and waited for Lu Jiang's sneak attack.

There is one thing that Chu Xian didn't tell Xiao Yu.

That is the matter of his black-haired bracer refining He Suixin into a ghost slave, and only Chu Xian and Lu Jiang know about it. And it is because of this that Chu Xian can conclude that Lu Jiang will definitely do it to himself, it can be said that He Suixin is Lu Jiang's henchman, and he is also an existence like a relative, maybe Lu Jiang can allow He Suixin to die in battle, but he definitely can't bear He Suixin being refined into a 'ghost slave'.

Of course, it wasn't Chu Xian who refined He Suixin into a ghost slave, but now, he can't carry this pot without it, because he can't explain it, even if he explains, others won't listen.

Therefore, Chu Xian can only be a soldier to block the water and cover the earth, since it is bound to be calculated and attacked by Lu Jiang, so he must be fully prepared.

As for where Lu Jiang is hiding at the moment and when he will make a move, Chu Xian doesn't know, but Chu Xian is sure that if Lu Jiang wants to make a move, he will definitely contain the immortal officials and masters in Jingzhou first.

In this way, he will be safe.

These Chu Xian were not written into the file for Shangguan, Chu Xian understood a truth, you must leave some leeway in everything you do, and you can't be too sharp, otherwise sooner or later you will suffer a big loss.

However, to Chu Xian's surprise, he waited for Lu Jiang's revenge before he came, and the commendation document of the Holy Dynasty Officials Department actually arrived first.

In the past few days, officials have often come to visit, and what are they for? It is not clear that they have made great contributions, and cracking a major case is secondary, and the focus is to prevent a big war between the two ethnic groups.

Although it is not the work of oneself to stop this great war, it must be an indispensable key link, according to the rules of the Holy Dynasty, there are meritorious rewards, and there are wrong punishments, so the reward is definitely back.

I just don't know what kind of reward there will be.

In Chu Xian's opinion, there should be no change in the official position, and the time he has been in the Criminal Department is too short, and it is unlikely that he will be transferred to Gao Sheng, but if he stays in the Criminal Division, the sixth grade is already the highest, unless he is not a pusher, for example, to be a Zhonglang in the Criminal Division, it is also a fifth grade, but there are five grades and five grades, and to what extent he can sit depends on whether there is someone above to speak for him.

In addition, there are some painless rewards, the worst is that there is no substantive thing, just a verbal reward, which is the most pitiful, but in the past history, there are often such cases, basically, it is the result of struggle and balance from above.

Chu Xian understands these truths.

So after this award, Chu Xian really doesn't know what he can get, but the things in this world are just because of the unknown, so he will look forward to it, and if he has expectations, he will feel interesting.

Chu Xian was looking forward to it at the moment, he really wanted to know what benefits he could get this time.

After the officials of the Ministry opened their mouths to read out the content of the reward, Chu Xian was stunned.

To tell the truth, the promotion of official quality, jumping directly from the sixth grade to the fifth grade, Chu Xian has thought about this and expected it, but it was the official position of Zhonglang, the secretary of the criminal department, but now, it is actually the official position that does not move, but only improves the official character.

At that moment, Chu Xian understood what was going on.

"It is worthy of Lord Zhongshu, he is borrowing this matter from me to promote his official reform, and in this way, although Lord Kong Qian has no merit this time, but according to his qualifications and official performance, he can also be directly promoted from the sixth grade to the fifth grade. After Chu Xian figured out what was going on, he was amazed in his heart.

It is estimated that Xiao Yu Zhongshu has long wanted to promote the reform of the official system of the Holy Dynasty, which is already known from Chu Xian's understanding of Xiao Yu, and the other party has this tendency.

It's just a difficult question about when to put it forward, how to do it, and how to get the consent of the first assistant cabinet after it is proposed.

It is likely that Xiao Yuzhongshu has already had a very mature plan, but he has been waiting, he is waiting for an opportunity, an opportunity to take advantage of the situation and push the executive order.

And this time is the best opportunity, so not only to seek benefits for himself, but also to implement his new policy, even if it is just a beginning, it is a victory.

What can Chu Xian say, he can only secretly give Xiao Yu a thumbs up.

High, really high.

From a positive sixth grade to a positive fifth grade, this is a qualitative leap, what kind of official position is the positive fifth grade?

It can be said that at this level of the current Holy Dynasty, there is no such young official as Chu Xian, not one. In addition, Zhengwupin will also have a great privilege, especially in Jingzhou, which means that you can have the right to participate in the politics of the court.

That's the most important thing.

What kind of place is that?

That is the center of power of the Holy Dynasty after the Shoufu Pavilion, and the officials who can participate in the court meeting are definitely much higher than the officials who cannot participate in the court meeting.

Of course, this kind of thing actually has advantages and disadvantages, although the Zhengwupin of the land of Jingzhou can participate in the court meeting, but if it is an official of the same level, put it on the state ground, it is an official at the level of Changshi, Sima and Thorn Shi, that is a feudal official who can govern a state, and he also has considerable power.

And at the local level, this kind of power will be amplified, after all, in the state, you are the highest official yourself, unlike in a place like Jingzhou, the fifth grade, or just the beginning, the second and third grades of the big people here are often visible, and the first auxiliary pavilion is pressed on the head, if you really explore, maybe some people prefer to be his soil emperor in other states.

The news of Chu Xian's promotion to the chief promoter of the fifth grade obviously spread quickly.

There are more officials who come to congratulate him, but they are all officials below the fifth grade, and the higher-level officials will definitely not come here to say hello to Chu Xian.

For Chu Xian, this is a good thing, and he still has to do some things, for example, to visit his superiors and thank him.

So, Chu Xian was the first to visit Xiao Yuzhongshu, then the Shangshu of the Criminal Department, the Criminal Department mentioned Langzhong, and finally went to Cui Huanzhi.

Chu Xian was able to be promoted to the fifth grade, and Cui Huanzhi was naturally quite happy, and at the same time amazed.

Chu Xian stepped into his official career, more than ten years later than him, but the speed of promotion was much faster than him, even Cui Huanzhi, even if it was Cui Huanzhi, he had to be convinced, and if he wanted to say that the potential was greater than him.

"Chu Xian, since you have been promoted to the fifth grade, the previous house is too small, it was still purchased when I first came to Jingzhou, in fact, you should have changed to a bigger house, your house, now the seven officials in Jingzhou are not willing to live, it is too small. Cui Huanzhi said at this time.

Chu Xian hurriedly shook his head, and said that the house was used to living in, and it was liked by his mother at home, and it happened that Chu Xian had a lot of silver now, and it was okay to buy the current house.

Of course, this is all shirk, in fact, Chu Xian can't change places for the time being, he still waits for Lu Jiang to come to him for revenge, and if he changes places, I'm afraid that there will be branches, so it's better not to change it.

Promotion, this is a happy event, and the house in the office is also full of lights.

Night.

The blackbird who had been on the big tree outside the yard was now under the night, and the rotten aura on his body was getting thicker and thicker, and finally, in the eyes of the bird, a ghost fire suddenly flashed, and the ghost fire was swirling, and the blackbird was directly burned into black blood by this ghost fire, falling on the branch and falling on the ground.

But everywhere touched by this black blood began to darken strangely, as if the darkness could lead to another world.

At the same time, the city center of Gyeongju.

The land of Jingzhou, the largest mansion, is actually the Taizong Immortal Palace.

This is the place where the royal family of the Tiantang Holy Dynasty lived.

The royal family is actually the descendants of the Holy Ancestor of Taizong, but the Holy Ancestor of Taizong knows that the power belongs to one family, and it is difficult to last long, because the descendants of one family may not be the most suitable candidate to rule the Holy Dynasty, not to mention, if the 'imperial throne' is established, it will inevitably cause a struggle for power and the disadvantages of too much concentration of power.

As the saying goes, the power of one person determines life and death, and there is no advice to accompany eternal life, if you meet the so-called Ming Monarch Holy Lord, you may be able to prosper for a hundred years, but once you encounter a mediocre or even brutal person in power, that day the Tang Holy Dynasty will only decline.

Therefore, the Holy Ancestor of Taizong strictly ordered that Tiantang set up the imperial family, but did not set up the imperial throne, and the first auxiliary pavilion was the center of power.

This is also to prevent his descendants from coming in trouble.

It is precisely because of this that the Holy Ancestor of Taizong will be praised by the people of the Holy Dynasty for 5,000 years and become the only Holy Ancestor.

For the Tiantang Holy Dynasty, the royal family is just a symbol, although there is no great power, but under normal circumstances, no one dares to provoke the royal family, and the royal family does have some privileges.

At this moment, somewhere in the Immortal Palace, there was a sudden scream, and then it was visible to the naked eye, the ground was rotten, flesh and blood gushed out, and several palace maid guards were swallowed by the suddenly appeared ghost domain in the scream, and became one of them.
