Taoist Myth: I am the last true immortal in the world

Chapter 48
in the lobby.

Chen Yun sat calmly on the chair, showing no timidity at all.

Father Jin looked at his daughter on the right, "Qiaoqiao, tell dad why you kidnapped her back to your house?"

"Dad, this little thief is not a human son." Jin Qiaoqiao said sadly and angrily: "A few days ago, he...he rashly broke into his daughter's boudoir!"

Father Jin was shocked and looked at Chen Yun suddenly, "Taoist Priest, is this possible?"

Why is Father Jin so shocked?

If it were the pre-Qin period, perhaps it would not be a big problem for men to enter women's boudoirs.

However, in the 37th year of the First Emperor's establishment in Kuaiji, there is a stone inscription that says: "To show justice to the province, marrying with a son is doubly unchaste. Guard against internal and external barriers, prohibit sexual immorality, and keep men and women clean and honest. If the husband is sending a loitering, it is not guilty of killing him. The man adheres to the righteousness process. The wife escapes from marriage, the son does not have the mother, and the salt becomes clean and honest. The great governance of the customs of washrooms, the world follows the trend, and menstruation is suspended. Everyone abides by the law, and everyone is harmonious, and everyone obeys the orders. The head of Guizhou is clean, and the people Being happy together will ensure peace."

"Kuaiji Stone Carvings" has repeatedly clarified the importance of male and female defense.

It is required that men and women interact according to norms, avoid immorality, be loyal to their respective families, and maintain "cleanliness and sincerity."

This is an example of Qin Shihuang's strengthening of the concept of female chastity.

From then on, men, not to mention ordinary men, were not allowed to enter a woman's boudoir. Even her biological father had to notify him if he wanted to enter.

Now that Jin's father heard that Chen Yun dared to enter his daughter's boudoir, he was of course extremely shocked.

Chen Yun naturally understood this.

He didn't deny it, and said generously: "It's true."

Father Jin frowned and looked at his daughter again, "Qiaoqiao, how did he break into your boudoir? Tell me slowly what happened that day."

Jin Qiaoqiao recounted the process from meeting Chen Yun to entering the boudoir without any deviation.

After hearing this, Father Jin nodded slightly, looked at Chen Yun again, and said, "In this case, I don't blame you."

Looking at this posture, Jin's father seemed quite reasonable and seemed ready to let Chen Yun go.

Chen Yun was quite confused.

Could it be that I had guessed wrong before and that the other party was really a high-ranking official?

Isn't it a role-playing role-playing exercise by some master from Chuandao Temple to test himself?
Just when he had doubts.

Father Jin suddenly spoke again: "A woman's innocence is as important as her life. Although you broke into the boudoir for a reason, you still harmed my daughter's innocence. If this matter spreads, who will dare to marry my daughter in the future? Taoist priest, tell me, what are you going to do? Do?"

Sure enough, he was still not ready to let himself go.

The doubts in Chen Yun's mind disappeared.

He said calmly: "I don't know, please give me some advice from Mr. Jin."

Jin's father did not directly explain the solution, but asked: "May I ask what your surname is? How many people are there in the family?"

Chen Yun answered truthfully: "I am Chen Yun. I am seventeen years old. I was originally from Heishi Village in Daheishan Mountain. I have both parents at home, one sister and two younger brothers. However, my father sold me a few months ago. Fortunately, Zhongnanshan Ning Immortal Wang Laozhi of Yangdong Chuandao Temple took him in, and he became the chief engineer of Chuandao Temple Medicine Garden."

Jin Hong's eyes lit up and he asked, "What do you mean by your words, are you not worried about your parents?"

After being sold in ancient times, it was true that he no longer had anything to do with his original family.

Because according to the law, the ownership of the person who is sold belongs to the purchaser.

Of course, the prerequisite is to sign a contract of sale and become a slave.

Although Chen Yun did not sign a sale contract with Chuandao Temple, he was indeed no longer related to his original family at the moment he was sold.

He responded, "Yes."

At this time, Father Jin nodded slightly and said, "In that case, everything is easy to talk about. I will give you two ways."

Chen Yun stretched out his hand and said, "I would like to hear the details."

Father Jin said slowly: "First, you and your daughter are getting married..."

Jin Qiaoqiao shouted from the side: "Dad! I just tied this little thief back and let you punish him. My daughter has not thought of getting married so early..."

"Shut up!" Jin's father glared angrily, "It's a shame for you to lure a man into your boudoir. My father is taking care of you, so how can I allow you to say anything here?"

Intimidated by his father's majesty, Jin Qiaoqiao did not dare to say anything.

Although he knew that the other party was acting, Chen Yun still did not speak rashly, but quietly waited for the other party to finish.

Test and test, how can you get the result without testing?

Chen Yun wanted to see what kind of medicine this Mr. Jin, who was most likely transformed by a master from the Taoist Temple, was selling in the gourd.

Naturally, he didn't speak in a hurry.

After teaching his daughter a lesson, Jin's father looked at Chen Yun again and continued: "First, you marry my Jin family and get married to my little daughter..."

Chen Yun opened his mouth to speak.

"Hey, Mr. Chen, listen to me." Jin's father stretched out his hand to stop him from speaking, "I know that a good man doesn't want to be humiliated by marrying into a wife. However, I, Jin Hong, have no children, and I have a daughter by chance. If you marry me into a child, Jin family, from now on I will treat you like a son and train you. To put it bluntly, in a hundred years from Jin, my Jin family's wealth and official titles will be passed on to you. Mr. Chen, what do you think?"

Chen Yun laughed dumbly and said: "Mr. Jin, it seems that I have never said that I want to marry Ling Qianjin, right?"

"You!" Jin Qiaoqiao was furious.

Jin Hong once again stopped his daughter with his hands, and stared at Chen Yun with a heavy face: "Oh? According to what you said, you are white and homeless. What Jin said is offensive, even though you are a preacher of the Taoist Medicine Garden, Long-term worker, but as far as I know, the long-term worker of Chuandaoguan will be dismissed after five years. By then, won’t you be a bereaved dog with nowhere to go? If you marry into my Jin family, I will have such a daughter by chance. I dare not say anything else. At least I can make you happy. Isn't it better for you to live a life of fine clothing and fine food and enjoy a lifetime of glory and wealth than to have nothing to rely on?"

Chen Yun nodded in agreement and said, "If we go by what Mr. Jin said, there is nothing wrong with Chen getting married, but..."

"A good man aims to build a successful career. Jin understands that." Jin Hong interrupted again and continued talking to himself, "Forget it, I promise you that if you marry into my Jin family, I will do everything possible to make you happy." If you want to become an official in the dynasty, you should start from the lower level first. From now on, Jin will use his connections to make you a Situ of our Qin Kingdom before the age of 40."

Chen Yun smiled and said: "Yun Zhi no longer wants to serve as an official in the court."

Jin Hong laughed dumbly and said, "Don't you believe that Jin has such ability?"

Chen Yundao: "No, I believe Mr. Jin has this ability, but my ambition is not here."

Jin Hong laughed, "You still don't believe me, that's true. Lin Xi, get my official seal and edict."

Manager Lin bent down slightly and said, "Yes, the head of the family."

After saying that, he turned around and walked inside.

Chen Yun saw that Jin Hong was "stubborn" and simply didn't bother to argue.

A few minutes later, Manager Lin came back with a jade box.

Jin Hong opened it and checked it, making sure there was nothing wrong with it, "Take it to Mr. Chen to have a look."

Chen Yun waved his hand and said: "Mr. Jin, there is no need for this. I have made it very clear just now. I believe you have the ability. Yun is not interested in power and wealth, so please let him go."

Jin Hong insisted: "You can talk about it after you read it."

As he spoke, Manager Lin held the jade box in front of him and said, "Mr. Chen, please take a closer look."

Chen Yun had no choice but to look down and saw that the official seal and imperial document were indeed placed inside.Jin Hong interrupted at the right time: "Lin Xi, take it out and see clearly."

"Okay, master."

Manager Lin carefully took out the official seal and turned it over so that Chen Yun could see it clearly. At the same time, he explained: "The head of my family is the Prime Minister of the Qin State. The official seal cannot be faked. Mr. Chen, take a closer look."

Chen Yun saw that the official name was Xiangguo engraved on the official seal.

The Prime Minister occupies a high position in the Qin State, second only to the emperor. The highest-ranking official with power in the Qin State is one level higher than the Prime Minister.

You must know that the prime minister first appeared to assist the prime minister. For example, during the reign of King Wu of Qin, he appointed two prime ministers, who were actually his left and right deputies to assist the prime minister in handling government affairs.

Of course, in the past, the country of prime ministers was generally called Xiangbang. Later, when Liu Bang established the Han Dynasty, in order to avoid the taboo of his name, it was changed to the country of prime ministers.

In addition, there is a short warning engraved on the official seal.

After making sure that he had seen it clearly, Manager Lin put the official seal back into the jade box, took out the imperial edict and opened it, "This is the imperial edict of Emperor Qin's appointment. Mr. Chen, please identify the authenticity."

Chen Yun saw that a series of detailed information such as the date of appointment and official position were written on the edict, and there was also the seal of Emperor Qin on the lower right.

After initial viewing, it is indeed true.

During the Qin and Han dynasties, official seals were carried with everyone. It stated the place of appointment and the name of the owner, and was even engraved with various blessings and warnings. In addition, the official seal alone may not be useful, and a legal appointment document issued by the court is required.

The official seal is generally exclusive to the official. No matter when he is an official or after he leaves office, as long as he has not committed any violation of law or discipline, he does not need to hand it over.

It can be said that the official seal is this person's business card in the court.

In addition, whether it is the imperial court or the world generally recognizing people and appointing documents, official seals are not valued. Forging official seals can be said to be a completely meaningless thing.

Most people really don’t have the guts to fake it.

There is no need to fake it.

After all, it has no effect if it is forged.

Indeed, there is no clue at all from the official seal and the appointment letter.

If Chen Yun hadn't already judged that Jin Hong was transformed by an expert from the Taoist Temple, he might have believed it.

I saw him reading the official seal and edict.

Jin Hong asked with a smile: "So, Mr. Chen, does he believe that Jin has the ability to let you become an official in the court and that you can rise to prominence in the future?"

If the other party is really the prime minister, he does have this ability.

Chen Yun nodded and said: "Letter."

Jin Hong asked again: "Master Chen, as long as you believe me, let's talk about getting married."

Chen Yun still shook his head and said: "Jin Xiangguo, Chen Mou has just made it clear that he does not intend to serve as an official in the court, and I will not enter your wife's house as a son-in-law."

As soon as these words came out, Jin Qiaoqiao burst into tears, "Wow... you're going too far!"

With that said, she ran away crying.

"Qiaoqiao! Qiaoqiao!" Jin Hong stood up and looked anxious.

Seeing his daughter running further and further away, he quickly said to Manager Lin, "Have someone chase Qiaoqiao back."

Manager Lin said hurriedly: "I will go and chase Miss Qiao back."

After saying that, he left directly.

wonderful!

This performance is really wonderful!

Chen Yun was stunned for a moment. He really didn't expect that Jin Hong and Jin Qiaoqiao's acting skills were so perfect that they would have won Oscars in his previous life.

Only Chen Yun and Jin Hong were left in the lobby.

Jin Hong looked at him with evil eyes, "Mr. Chen, do you really not want to marry my girl?"

Chen Yun nodded and said: "Yes, Jin Xiangguo, I remember you just said that there is a second option, but please tell me, if your proposal can restore Miss Qiao's innocence, I, Chen Yun, will definitely not refuse."

"Okay! Okay, okay!" Jin Hong laughed angrily, and his eyes became gloomy, "In this second way, since you ruined my daughter's innocence, then you must die to apologize!"

Chen Yun pretended to be shocked and said: "Why did Jin Xiangguo say this?"

Jin Hong sneered, "If you die, won't no one in the world know that my little girl's boudoir was broken into by a man?"

Chen Yun deliberately acted flustered and said sternly: "Jin Xiangguo, our country of Qin is based on law. As the prime minister, you don't understand that forcing people to death will cost their lives!"

Jin Hong said in a serious tone: "I will kill you in the hall, and then accuse you of being an assassin who wants to kill me. Do you think anyone will suspect it?"

Chen Yun was furious, stretched out his fingers and said tremblingly: "You! You!"

Jin Hong shouted: "Let me ask you one last time, do you want to marry into my Jin family, or do you want to die as an apology?"

Chen Yun stood there with an expression on his face, showing great struggle.

Jin Hong said in a persuasive manner: "If you marry me into the Jin family, you will not only enjoy all kinds of glory and wealth, but you will also be able to achieve great success one day. If you die, you will lose everything. Mr. Chen, please think clearly."

After saying that, he stopped talking and quietly waited for Chen Yun's decision.

Chen Yun lowered his head and said nothing.

For a moment, silence spread in the lobby.

On the surface, Chen Yun seems to be really struggling to think, after all, it is a matter of life and death.

But in fact, he was thinking in his heart that when he reached the final stage, the test should be almost over, right?
Well, I've been working hard at acting for so long, but I can't fall short at the last moment.

So far, Chen Yun is very satisfied with his acting skills.

I dare not say that it is Oscar winner level, at least it has no flaws.

It's just that the other party may actually "kill" themselves next.

How should I express my fear of death and my determination to pursue the truth without fear of death?
Yes, Chen Yun lowered his head and remained silent, not because he was struggling.

He was thinking about how he should perform next to look more natural!

Usually only gods enlighten others to give them a test.

Only Chen Yun turned the test into an act.

No way, Chen Yun never put himself in a "humble" position.

He felt that since others could design tests, why couldn't he act after he saw through them?

Fortunately, Zhong Liquan, who plays Jin Hong, doesn't know what Chen Yun is thinking, otherwise he would be so angry that he would vomit blood.
