Huangxiu

Chapter 183 Compensation
During lunch time, Bai Ningshuang hurried back.

She came and went like the wind, quickly took off her gold hairpins, jade pendants, and sat down with a long sigh.

Chu Yi hurried forward to pat her waist, and said with a smile: "Mom, you have worked hard. You came back so late, why don't you eat at the Empress's place?"

Bai Ningshuang glanced at Chu Zhiyuan.

Chu Yi immediately smiled and said, "What's the matter, big brother?"

"It's all because of Ruo Ling!"

"What's wrong with Sister Xiao?"

"In the morning, Empress Xigong called me over."

"Mother, you finally met Mother Xigong. Is it because of Sister Xiao?"

"Ruoling is also here." Bai Ningshuang said helplessly, "Empress Xigong apologized to me, saying that she delayed your eldest brother's marriage."

"What else?" Chu Yi said with a smile, "You wouldn't just say it, right? Big brother is not like those ministers."

The eldest brother is the prince, and his surname is Chu.

"I am going to promote your eldest brother by two levels."

"Brother is going to be promoted to Left Vice Minister? Hehe, wouldn't that be the same as the Duke of Anguo? What about the Duke of Anguo?"

"Go to the Ministry of Personnel and be the Left Vice Minister."

"Oh, he got promoted." Chu Yi asked in surprise: "Is this compensation for Sister Xiao? Or for Big Brother?"

When Chu Zhiyuan first entered the Ministry of Rites, she had already learned about it in detail.

He knew all the official positions in the imperial court like the back of his hand.

Above the Yuanwailang is the Langzhong, and above the Langzhong are the Zuo and Zuo Shilang.

"There's nothing we can do about it." Bai Ningshuang said, "We can't let your elder brother be on an equal footing with your father-in-law, can we?"

"Brother, it's like you've taken over my father-in-law's position. Hehe, that's interesting." Chu Yi said with a smile, "Brother, congratulations. You've made a big jump!"

Once you reach the level of Yuanwailang, it is not easy to get promoted to the next level. You have to accumulate a lot of merits, and many people cannot get promoted in their entire life.

Chu Zhiyuan smiled.

This can be considered as compensation from the emperor.

He was not originally so keen on the throne.

If you want the throne, you need a powerful Emperor's Sword. If you want to master the Emperor's Sword, you can control your own destiny.

But we also know that with power comes responsibility.

The Emperor's Sword is indeed powerful, but its power is related to the order and chaos in the world.

The country was in chaos, the people were divided and alienated, and the Emperor's Sword had lost all its power.

Therefore, if you master the Emperor's Sword, you must work hard to govern the world well, so that the people can live and work in peace and contentment, and win the support of the people.

Once you master the Emperor's Sword, you will not be able to practice wholeheartedly.

But now, he suddenly changed his mind.

Look at the emperor's demeanor. He can drive the grandmaster to his command with just one word and make everyone run for him with just one word.

If this way of living is not in conflict with immortality, why can't we have both? Wouldn't it be more perfect?
What's more, if he had control over powerful cultivation resources, he would probably have reached the level of a perfect grandmaster by now.

Why bother running around for credit?
Not only do I want to become a grandmaster, but I also want to be immortal. To do that, I have to master more powerful resources, and the supply of the entire Dajing resources will be easier to succeed.

"Brother, you are not happy about your promotion?" Chu Yi said angrily, "Otherwise, why don't you let Sister Xiao compete for the invitation of the Moon Palace Saint?"

Chu Zhiyuan coughed twice and said, "From Yuanwailang to Zuo Shilang, there are more things to do and no time for cultivation."

Chu Yi tilted his head playfully and said, "Then resign from the post of Left Assistant Minister and continue to be a Deputy Minister?"

“That’s not necessary.” Chu Zhiyuan coughed lightly: “Just find a capable subordinate,…what else did you say?”

"It can be seen that Empress Xigong likes Ruoling very much. Alas... Ruoling is both smart and well-behaved, who can not like her!"

Chu Zhiyuan smiled and said, "Madam is very young?"

"Standing together with Ruoling, we are like sisters." Bai Ningshuang couldn't help but touch her face.

She has been staying in the mansion for the past thirty years and has not had any worries. She has not been exposed to the wind and rain, and the traces of time are very light.

But she is the mother of two children after all. Her children are so grown up now. How can she not look old at all?
Chu Zhiyuan smiled and said, "I guess he took some magic medicine."

"If there really is a panacea, it would have spread throughout the palace long ago!... It must be the martial arts of the Yaoyue Palace. It seems that the disciples of the Yaoyue Palace do not look old, but Empress Xigong is the youngest and may have practiced better." Bai Ningshuang said.

She looked at Chu Zhiyuan and said, "It would be good if the spirit could go in. At least it would not look old. When you are my age, you will know how precious it is. Nothing can bring back youth."

"Maybe the Yaoyue Palace has this kind of elixir." Chu Yi's eyes suddenly lit up: "Ask Sister Xiao to give me some in the future." "Don't worry, if there really is such an elixir, yours will be indispensable." Chu Zhiyuan said.

-

sunset.

The setting sun enveloped Yujing, dyeing it rose-colored.

Chu Zhiyuan sat on the bed in the new house, his face solemn and his brows furrowed.

What he worried about most happened.

The first level of the Dragon Transformation Technique was completed again.

Dragon Fat Incense can no longer cause changes in the meridians.

After its breath penetrated into the meridians, the burning sensation was no longer there, there was no feeling at all, and it was unable to further strengthen the meridians.

The Cleansing Meridians Technique destroys the meridians, while the Dragon Transformation Technique repairs them. The Dragon Fat Fragrance is incorporated into the process, but it is unable to strengthen the meridians.

Just restored to its original state.

The magical effect of dragon fat incense is just to speed up the repair process.

There is no need for dragon fat incense if it is just for repair; the Emperor of Heaven and Earth Sutra can do it.

Chu Zhiyuan changed the Dragon Transformation Technique to the fifth level of membrane refining again. Driven by the Flying Dragon Pearl, the membrane refining continued, vibrating the internal organs and strengthening the body.

He pushed open the window.

The unique smell of the evening rushed into the house and penetrated into his mouth and nose.

This is a unique scent that blends fragrant grass and cooking smoke, a unique scent of human life.

He looked serious, thinking about countermeasures.

Do you want to change to a more powerful meridian refining technique?

In this vast world, is there any sect whose meridian refining technique is better than the Dragon Transformation Technique, or better than the Dragon Subduing Sect's?

The Cleansing Meridians Technique of the Yuxu Sword Sect is already the world's top meridian refining technique, but it is still slightly inferior to the first level of the Dragon Transformation Technique.

He searched in Tongtian Pavilion and Mingwu Hall, but failed to find any mental method that could be stronger than the first level of the Hualong Jue in meridian training.

If the mental method doesn’t work, how can I continue to strengthen the meridians?

It can’t hold up to fourteen dragon-binding ropes, it’s still not strong enough.

Unfortunately, there is no miraculous pill like the Chengfeng Pill that can break the constraints of the meridians, break through the limits, and continue to advance upwards.

If you can find this kind of elixir, you can continue to practice the first level of the Dragon Transformation Technique and continue to use the Dragon Fat Fragrance.

Thinking of this, he got up from bed and prepared to go to Tianbaosi.

Tianbaosi is next to Tsutenkaku. After leaving the new house, you have to walk across two streets.

Not long after leaving the new house, he saw Li Hongzhao after walking a few steps in the bustling crowd on Fenghuang Avenue.

Li Hongzhao wore a dark green robe, a change from his usual red.

The wide dark green robe covered her graceful figure, which was slender and upright. When she walked, she was as light as smoke and radiant with beauty.

She was strolling leisurely on the street, surrounded by several cavalrymen.

When she saw Chu Zhiyuan, she suddenly narrowed her eyes.

Chu Zhiyuan looked towards her.

The two people's eyes met in the gap between the crowd, and sparks were faintly heard.

Chu Zhiyuan suddenly smiled and walked forward to her.

Four Cloud-Treading Iron Cavalrymen stood in front to block the way.

Guo Chi and the other three walked forward.

The Four Spirits Formation became more and more sophisticated due to their hard work.

The force seems to be a forward push, but it is actually a sideways push.

The four Cloud-Treading Iron Cavalry were caught off guard and staggered a few steps to make way.

Chu Zhiyuan came up to Li Hongzhao, clasped his fists and said with a smile: "Your Highness, you are more elegant than before. It seems that the fine wine of Linglong Library is very nourishing."

"The wine in Linglong Library is really good, and the beauties are also very good." Li Hongzhao chuckled and glanced at him: "It's a pity that some people can't afford it."
