Cultivating Ghosts: There is a Pink Skull at the beginning

Chapter 541 The Luck of the Wu Dynasty

Li Lizhi saw that it was almost time, so she said to Chen Taiyi who was almost familiar with several senior officials:

"Lu Shelang, the grand ceremony is about to begin soon. Before the king comes, you stand here and don't move. I will take my leave first."

Before Chen Taiyi could speak, the officials with sharp ears around him all looked this way.

Some people stood in front of Chen Taiyi, and some people stood behind Chen Taiyi.

The front and back are mainly close to the front of the main hall, and the place further back than Chen Taiyi is naturally a little further away.

"Lu Shelang is only a third-grade man, why is he standing here?" A middle-aged senior official said loudly: "He is a third-grade man, and I am a second-grade man! Why is he standing in front of me?!"

Chen Taiyi is not really a child. Although he has lost some memories about the ways of the Yue Empire, he actually understood many things when he was just born.

This is Suhui, innate wisdom.

Chen Taiyi felt happy, this guy obviously did it on purpose!
"Then just stand here and don't be angry." Chen Taiyi quickly and weakly accommodated the other party.

Luck or whatever, he doesn't care. Anyway, in this life, he mainly plays the role of a gentle person who accepts the adversity, plays the role of a drop of water piercing a stone, a fine health filling the sea, and an iron pestle ground into a needle.

Li Lizhi quickly and solemnly looked at the senior official who was looking for trouble, "Master Luo, as the inspector of the God City, you are naturally aware of Lu Shelang's achievements, and this is an arrangement hand-picked by the Holy Majesty."

Luo Dingjin didn't care about this and pointed directly at the ten-year-old kid in front of him who was 1.2 meters tall. "He just said it himself, give me this position! What's wrong with me standing here?"

With that said, the three or forty-year-old man walked towards Chen Taiyi and wanted to stand in Chen Taiyi's position.

Chen Taiyi gave up his position nonchalantly, "I'll give it to you if you want it. Don't be angry."

Li Lizhi wanted to stop her, not only because her cultivation level was far lower than the opponent's, but also her official position was far lower than the opponent's, especially because she was afraid of offending the ruthless person in charge of inspection.

Li Lizhi originally wanted the victim to reject this person so that she could use King Wu's majesty to calm the matter, but this person had no intention of resisting at all.

The other high-ranking officials around him also watched silently, as if they were watching a show.

When he thought the matter would calm down like this, Chen Taiyi suddenly said innocently: "Why are you standing here motionless? Why don't you keep walking forward?"

Luo Dingjin stood in the position of a second-rank official with a majestic look, and said calmly: "I am a second-rank official. I stand in the ranks of the second rank and do my duty. In front of me are veterans with outstanding achievements. I have not done enough. Should stand here."

Chen Taiyi looked at those senior officials and princes in front of him who looked calm, relaxed and leisurely.

He put on that curious and innocent look again, "Do they all have more credit than I do?"

The noisy crowd around him soon became as quiet as waves.

More and more people are aware of the abnormal atmosphere.

There are smart people, there are arrogant people, there are people who are not smart, there are people who are outsiders with advanced cultivation, and there are many speculators who have hidden evil intentions.

Pei Junzhi stood in the ranks of sixth-rank officials. Although he was a confidant, his official position was not high.

This positioning is based on comprehensive considerations such as merit, power, reputation, strength, etc., and we try our best to adjust a position that satisfies everyone and leaves everyone speechless.

Standing is not only an honor, but also related to future rewards and salary.

Money in the world is of no use to most people. What everyone cares about is the distribution of luck to the tens of billions of people in Zhongzhou. This is something that is difficult to corrupt, so the only way to get it is through salary.

Salary depends on official position!
Not only his own official position, but also the official positions of all his subordinates!
Whoever does not fight at this time will be hated by his subordinates! !

Even his closest relatives, even his confidants who had risked their lives to protect him, would be filled with resentment because of this incident.

Chen Taiyi directed the fireball towards the first- and second-grade officers in front, immediately making these people hate him.

General Ye Jiuheng said directly and proudly: "Our achievements are higher than the mountains and deeper than the sea. In the more than sixty years since we supported the king and raised the army, we have made countless military exploits and experienced life and death. Which one of our achievements is not greater than the following people?"

The other first- and second-grade people also didn’t speak.

Some contributions are difficult to compare. For example, someone risked his life to save King Wu's life. How much contribution did he make to the Wu Dynasty?Bigger than those generals?

Although the merits of casting the tripod are indeed great, everyone knows that it was Lu Shelang who contributed the strategy, and they also know the benefits of this kind of talent to the country's luck.

But if it is said that his contribution is greater than that of the other first- and second-grade people, these first- and second-grade people are still not convinced.

At present, it is hard to say that the other first- and second-grade people have made greater contributions than the one who made the cauldron, so the smart people have remained silent.

Anyway, they were quite satisfied with their position.

Chen Taiyi nodded in realization, "That's it, then I won't say anything."

He quickly stood there with an indifferent attitude, and suddenly turned to look at the people behind him, "Is there anyone else who wants to take a step forward?"

The rest of the people looked at each other, and soon the three men behind Chen Taiyi spoke up: "I was standing behind Mr. Luo just now, and I should be standing there now."

Chen Taiyi took the initiative to abdicate and make way for the next person, "Okay, if you want it, I'll let you do it."

This man made a good start. Even though Luo Dingjin looked very ugly at this time, he could not get angry.

The people who started it were actually very reluctant to be followed by future generations...

If there are two, there will be three. Soon someone behind him raised his hand and said, "Lu Shelang, I am also a third-grade official."

"It's easy to talk about." Chen Taiyi smiled and gave up.

There are only a limited number of second-grade officers, but there are many more third-grade officials. Soon there are people here who are also eager to try.

"Lu Shelang...me too" "Nonsense!" An angry shout came from behind.

I saw an old man with a white beard wearing a white official uniform from the Ministry of Etiquette striding forward. The person who came was Li Jingguang, the father of Li Li, a fourth-grade official of etiquette.

Although he is the fourth rank, this ceremony officer is now more imposing than the other second and third rank people.

He looked majestically at the high-ranking officials in front of him, looked at these high-ranking officials, and then looked at the numerous third-, fourth- and fifth-grade officials.

"Lu Shelang's standing here is the arrangement of the Holy Emperor. It is the rule set by the left prime minister, the right minister, the Ministry of Rites, the cabinet and the Holy Emperor!"

"If you don't follow the rules today, and he doesn't follow the rules, then the tens of thousands of people standing outside the temple will also want to come in and stand. Will they follow the rules with you then?!"

"They have also served the country through life and death, and have served the Holy Father conscientiously for decades!"

"Every officer, please return to your posts!!" Li Jingguang looked at Luo Dingjin with emphasis, "Master Luo, please!"

Luo Dingjin was resentful that the old man from the Ministry of Rites came out to give him face. He also resented those people behind him who started making trouble and made the matter worse. He even hated Lu Naiweng, who seemed weak and bullied, but was actually rotten!
The left and right prime ministers all stood in front without speaking, and neither turned their heads to watch the excitement, as if it had nothing to do with them.

The two of them and several other important ministers are the same, and they don't want to cause trouble today.

The rest of the people were similar. They neither spoke for Lu Naiweng nor Luo Dingjin.

"Hmph!" Luo Dingjin could only take a step back resentfully.

The officials behind him were pushed back at once by him.

Chen Taiyi looked at the ministers in front of him who fell back like bricks, and secretly felt pity.

The uneven distribution of benefits and the lack of credit for hard work are major hidden dangers planted by the new dynasty.

But it doesn't matter, Chen Taiyi remembers that there are definitely many people who want to take a step forward at this time.

Even if this salute only suppresses everyone with rules, it cannot suppress the meritorious nobles outside who cannot enter the hall.

Everyone wants to take a step forward!
When sharing money, it is always the most likely time to quarrel and fight.

The population of Zhongzhou has long exceeded [-] billion, and the spiritual energy absorbed every day is worth someone else's thousands of years of hard work. If we don't fight today, we will have no chance to fight in the future!
Whether it is the head of the mountain sect or the head of the aristocratic family, even if he does not want to fight at this time, he still has to consider the mouths following him.

Since the beginning of the dynasty's cultivation of immortality, everyone has long understood the importance of some things from Dongzhou.

The official position is the treasure of heaven and earth, the inheritance of immortal skills, the blessed land of Lingshan, and the secret treasure of the great road that can eliminate disasters!

After a few minutes, King Wu led Queen Wu onto the throne from the side.

As soon as King Wu sat down and Chen Taiyi and others were about to salute, the sound of crying for father and mother suddenly came from outside.

"Your Majesty! I want to see your Majesty! Since I was six years old, I have been delivering information for your Majesty, eradicating demons from all directions for your Majesty, and managing the people for your Majesty. I have managed a small town of 50 people into a county with a population of 30 million in 500 years!"

"I have done great service to the king! I have done great work to the country. Why are you asking me to stand outside the door today and drink the northwest wind?! I want to see the king!!"

"Your Majesty! It's me! Xiao Niuzi!"

King Wu suddenly looked unhappy, and many senior officials and generals in the court also remained silent.

Chen Taiyi looked calm on the surface, but secretly had fun in his heart.

If there is one, then there are two. Even the majesty of the royal family cannot stop this kind of matter related to one's own actual interests.

In the Yue Kingdom, Chen Taiyi was mainly responsible for the troubles. The rest of the people were young and energetic and did not know how good Guoding was. In addition, in the past, they were just making small fuss, and they were content with getting good land and money.

After knowing the power of Guoding, it was too late to regret it.

The state of Zhou, the state of Lu, and the state of Wei have absorbed the experience of the state of Yue, the system has been improved, and various spokespersons have also won satisfactory positions, but there are still some negligence.

The Wu Kingdom in front of us is different. Not only does it have more than a hundred years of governance experience, and it has avoided decades of detours, but it has also accumulated a lot of experience and built a larger territory than the other countries in Dongzhou!
And during the war, the opponent's mortal city was not touched, and a very large-scale basic disk was retained.

In Chen Taiyi's view, the Wu Dynasty, which inherited countless feudal dross, would definitely have this kind of official crying incident.

The crying outside the palace continued. As the person in power, King Wu dared to let the other party in at this time. Then there would definitely be more than one person kneeling and crying outside the palace.

Neither his majesty nor his kindness were right at this time.

Li Jingguang quickly raised his hands and said: "Your Majesty, the titles of everyone inside and outside the palace have been confirmed under the cauldron a long time ago. There is absolutely no reason to owe anyone."

"Although Taishou Niu has been with the king for many years, his achievements are weak. The so-called slaying and slaying of demons are all due to the nearby monks who want to serve the king and take the initiative to help. Managing the people is also the governance rule set by the cabinet bachelor for the thirteen thousand counties in Zhongzhou. Taishou Niu Just comply.”

"Besides, the king has rewarded fertile fields and beauties before, and everyone in the palace has made great contributions, especially most of the people in front of me have made irreplaceable contributions."

"Today's enthronement is not only a reward for the merits of those who came before, but also a reward for those who will come after!"

Li Jingguang faced Chen Taiyi with one hand and said, "Your Majesty, please continue the ceremony. Later, I will explain the interests to Prefect Niu!"

A country needs some understanding people to help. King Wu nodded calmly, "Go on, don't pay attention to him."

After King Wu said this, the sounds outside were cut off.

Chen Taiyi was speechless. Sure enough, this country's fate should not be cut off.

Some people are willing to take the blame for the monarch and do dirty things. Although this is despicable, it is not a bad thing for the country.
