Chapter 279
"You have also seen this sign. If I come here in person, in short, it is equivalent to a holiday axe!"
The false sword is a way of authorizing the king, usually given to local military and political officials, to kill unjust officials.
It is divided into four levels: Jiajie, Chijie, Shichijie, and Jiajieyue, and the permission rights are also different.
If Chijie can deal with officials below the third rank during wartime and peacetime, he can kill them first and then report them.
"Your level is too low now. It would be inappropriate for His Majesty to give you a fake holiday yue. It's too outrageous."
Master Gao explained, "So after thinking about it, His Majesty decided to give you this sign so that you can use it when necessary."
Even Jijie can kill officials below the third rank, and Jijie Yue can even kill generals who hold Jijie.
But Shen Wuming himself is only at the fourth level.
If it is a fake holiday yue, it will definitely attract criticism from many people, and the court rules will also be messed up.
Doing the following is a big no-no!
"If it's not necessary, forget it. If it is necessary, don't worry so much and do what you think is right!"
Master Gao had a serious look on his face, "The situation in the north is complicated. Master Shen, please be more careful!"
Shen Wuming's expression also became solemn.
He had vaguely noticed before that there must be a reason why the emperor was promoted so highly.
The most likely possibility is that the situation in Bingzhou is in ruins and the emperor has no one available.
Only then would he be used as a newcomer.
"I see."
Shen Wuming nodded heavily, "Please tell Your Majesty that since I have accepted this task, I will definitely complete it."
He had no sense of belonging to the imperial court, and he didn't even want to be an official in the first place.
But even if it is in exchange, if he accepts this task, he must complete it.
After Mr. Gao left, Shen Wuming put the gold medal away close to his body, then put on a smiling face and laughed with everyone.
Banquet guests at Lijing Tower!
The entire Lijing Building was booked, and all of them were guests he invited.
In addition to the candidates, there are also family members and other friends.
Shangshu Zuocheng Pei Mao, Dali Temple Minister Pei Deben, Rong Guogong Yang Wanchun, Supervisory Yushi Cui Zhujian, King Changle...
Zhang Taisu of Tianshi Dao, Master Duhe of Xiangguo Temple...
Chu Pingshan, the Shaoyin of Jingzhao Mansion, Su Yuanzhi, the Marquis of Dongcheng, Su Letian, the front commander of Tiance Mansion...
Seeing so many guests, everyone was beating drums in their hearts.
Especially those candidates, they deeply felt the gap between them.
I originally thought that Shen Wuming was just a bit more talented and gained the attention of the empress.
But to put it bluntly, they are still young people.
As a favored minister of the empress, although he is favored and honored now, he may be known as a treacherous minister in the future.
But now I look at it...
Unknowingly, Shen Wuming had just entered the court and already had a small group.
Pei Deben was very busy, but he still took time out of his busy schedule to come over, have a glass of wine and say a few words.
"Okay, I'll finish the congratulations. I have to correct the files next, so I'll leave first."
Pei Deben patted Shen Wuming on the shoulder, and then cupped his hands towards Chu Pingshan, Cui Zhujian and others.
Say goodbye and leave.
"Drink, drink, don't care about him, this guy, he doesn't even know where to go home every day."
"If it weren't for Wuming's face, I, the father, wouldn't be able to see him for most of the month."
Pei Mao smiled and cursed, then turned around to greet the people at the main table to drink together.
Those sitting at the main table were mostly high-ranking officials in the court, or giants like Zhang Taisu.
"Speaking of Master Du'e, why are you here too? You are not running your Xiangguo Temple well."
Zhang Taisu leaned on the chair and looked at Master Du'e with a smile on his face, but there was some hostility in his eyes.
After Ye Qingcheng came back, he also conveyed the meaning of the old heavenly master to him.
Use every possible means to bring Shen Wuming to the path of the Heavenly Master.
But Xiangguo Temple is so grand, no matter how you look at it, it has the intention of competing with their Taoists for people.
Buddhism and Taoism have always been indifferent to each other since ancient times. Master Du'e didn't think it was strange, he just laughed.
"General Wei is here!"
At this moment, a majestic middle-aged armored man strode upstairs and walked straight towards the main table.
"General Wei!"
Shen Wuming quickly stood up and said hello, and Wei Yinglong smiled politely.
"Master Shen, you won't mind if you come uninvited, right?" Wei Yinglong said, cupping hands with him.
Wei Yinglong is Wei Xiaowen's father. His ancestor was also born in Zhongshan County, so he comes from a good family background.
Barely gaining a foothold among the rich and powerful.
But in so many generations, no big shot has come out.
The person with the highest official position is Wei Yinglong himself, who is now the leading general of the left army.
But after all, he has a good family background, and Wei Yinglong still has a good way of educating children.
Wei Xiaowen himself was good, and he also had a son, Wei Xiaotong, who ranked fourth in the imperial examination.
"General Wei, you're welcome!" Shen Wuming said quickly, "We have enough drinks today, so don't be polite!"
"Hahaha, that's very good."
Wei Yinglong patted him on the shoulder, and then hurriedly greeted Pei Mao and others.
I'm being polite, but this guy's sudden arrival still made Shen Wuming a little strange.
He had interacted with Wei Xiaowen before, but he didn't seem to know his father very well, right?
But Wei Yinglong's arrival seems to be just the beginning.
Chu Pingshan's immediate boss Jingzhao Fuyin and his subordinate Luoyang Ling also came after hearing the news.
Sima Daozhang, the junior official of the Dali Temple, who had dealt with Shen Wuming last time but only met him once, also came to have a drink.
After a while, Han Changli, the Minister of Rites, ran over and pulled Shen Wuming to drink.
Many people enjoyed the drink.
But many others had mixed feelings.
They initially just valued Shen Wuming, so they came to have a drink and make friends.
But the fact is that this celebration banquet made everyone realize the power behind Shen Wuming.
The second time was so direct.
The first time was when he was captured in Jingzhao Prefecture, and a lot of people came to save him.
But now...
After the banquet, a rumor has been circulating in the underground of the capital.
It seems that there is another faction in the officialdom of the capital, that is, the Zhongshan Gang with Shen Wuming as the core!
...
Shen Wuming has not yet realized that he has been regarded as the leader of a faction by many people!
After leaving Lijing Tower, he began to look forward to it with all his heart, because he won the first place in the imperial examination.
According to what his wife said.
The things that were not completed on the wedding night seemed to have finally come to this day!
And there were hugs on both sides... This could be discussed after Zhu Yu got married.
But at least he could taste the taste of meat, instead of the fake dragon and fake phoenix that he had been doing all along.
"Husband!"
When Shen Wuming returned home, he did not see his wife. He pushed open the bedroom door and saw that beautiful figure.
However, Chu Youyi at this time had changed into a bright red wedding dress with a red veil on her head.
It was not a wedding veil, but a veil that was slightly translucent and allowed you to see that beautiful face.
Under the flickering candlelight, it was hazy, as if issuing a warm invitation!
"Gudong!"
Shen Wuming swallowed his saliva, closed the door, walked over step by step, and hugged his wife in his arms.
When he touched the wedding dress, his expression was slightly startled, as if it was empty?
My wife is really good at it...
