Chapter 24: The Hero of the Imperial Clan, Hou Fengling

  Liu Yi once again expended his divine power and materialized weapons and armor. After arming them, Liu Yi now had the first batch of troops in his hands.

  At first, when the ghost who had read books was selected as a ghost official, the first stratum was divided.

  Now Liu Yi has chosen five ghost soldiers again, and these ghost soldiers are complacent, even showing off their might. Similarly, looking at his original companions, he has a slightly condescending attitude. Although it is very small, it does exist.

  Such a small spiritual realm, with dozens of ghosts and monsters, is just a small society...

  Observing all of this, Liu Yi carefully sensed it!

  Liu Yi called over Shi Huai, one of the four ghostly officials who had actually read books, and asked him how to recommend filial piety.

  With five ghost soldiers re-divided into ranks, Si Huai became even more respectful. He very carefully told the story of Filial Piety and Integrity in great detail.

  This world is still holding on to the system of selecting officials based on filial piety and integrity, and has not yet fallen into the dead end of the nine-rank promotion system. Although there are still many places where dark box operations occur, sons from poor families still have opportunities to rise up, despite the great difficulties.

  There were many great Confucian scholars, each with their own teachings. They had fewer than a hundred to several thousand disciples under them, forming enormous forces.

  If one can gain recognition under this great Confucian school, there is still a chance to serve as an official in the counties and prefectures.

  Moreover, this was like Liu Yi's original world in the Han and Tang dynasties, where officials also had a promotion channel, and theoretically everyone had the opportunity to become a high-ranking official.

  Moreover, as a government official, there is still an opportunity to be promoted through the filial piety and integrity system. If you perform well in the government office and gain the appreciation of your superiors, it's not impossible for them to give you the opportunity to be promoted through this system.

  It's actually more difficult to be recommended as a filial and incorrupt official just by relying on one's reputation!

  After all, Yu Shu had a good chance, it wasn't just a wild idea. It's just that the operation was too difficult to execute, and Liu Yi couldn't make up his mind for the time being.

  This matter is not urgent, there will be another chance to talk about it later! Liu Yi said so in his heart, but actually knew that this was the best opportunity. His hesitation at this time was clearly a sign of giving up...

  To be honest, Liu Yixi had already made a comprehensive plan in his heart, not only would he have the opportunity to help Yu Shu, but also bring great benefits to himself. However, the danger was too great, and if things went wrong, it could lead to disaster.

  He felt it was still better to be stable for now, having just taken a firm seat as the God of Earth, and there was no need to be so anxious or hasty.

  Madam Chen returned home slowly with her maid, Yin'er. The distance to the Feng's house was a bit further, but it wouldn't take too long to get back from the Temple of the Land. As they approached their own gate, they saw a horse carriage parked outside and were slightly startled.

  It's like a luxury sports car in Liu Yina's world, and as soon as you see it, you know that a distinguished guest has arrived. Without thinking, I hastened my pace by two steps and entered the house.

  In the living room, there was a young man in white clothes, who caught everyone's attention at first sight. He wore a silver crown on his head, with wide sleeves and a long sword at his waist, exuding an air of heroism. Behind him stood a robust man like an iron tower.

  After seeing Madame Chen return, Yu Shu hastily stood up and said: "Mother, this is a friend I made acquaintance with in the county last year, Qi Zhengyi's older brother."

  That young man in white stood up, elegantly saluting: "Junior Qi Sheng, has seen Aunt Chen..." Seeing the maid Yiner behind Chen Shi, a hint of unusual color flashed in his eyes. Unexpectedly, this humble Yu family actually hid such beauty, and he felt somewhat moved.

  He had always been ambitious, but didn't want to look at it, and turned his head away. On the other hand, Yiner's clever eyes were fixed on Qi Sheng without blinking.

  The young girl had a favorable impression of him, for it was rare to see such a person in this countryside.

  Mr. Chen saw him and hurriedly smiled: "It turned out to be Master Liu, the child is mischievous, and I would like to ask Master to teach him more!"

  "Where... I just heard that Aunt Wang's body is not very well. Yu Shu brother also asked me to help invite a famous doctor, now seeing Aunt Wang, I feel that her body and complexion are not bad, it seems that she has already recovered!"

  Mr. Chen listened and said with a serious expression: "Thank you, Mr. Liu! I didn't expect that the doctor we invited last time was helped by you. My family is truly grateful..."

  Qī Shèng was also amazed, originally he had asked a famous doctor to come and the doctor told him that Chen's illness was too severe, and she might not last much longer...

  This time, I was just passing by and thought I should visit casually. But I didn't expect that Chen's family not only didn't die but also took an ice bath. Is it really like Yu Shu said earlier, is the land god really so efficacious?

  Thinking of it, I was moved by a thought. For now, I asked Yu Shu to help me and took him to the Land Temple to burn incense.

  As she waited for her son to take Qi Sheng's servant away, Chen suddenly had an idea. She was shocked and lost color in an instant, and suddenly remembered that Qi Sheng was a member of the imperial family... The court had conferred upon him the title of Marquis of Fengling...

  Feng Linghou is just a Marquis of the Pavilion, but he belongs to the imperial lineage. Tianyuan's noble family, what a high and noble status!

  But what shocked Chen the most was that Qi Sheng's father had been arrested and imprisoned by the imperial court back then. This Qi Sheng, at the age of eight, pointed at the nose of Empress Dowager Dou Miao and scolded loudly: "You want to kill Liu Xiang and plot to usurp the throne?"

  One sentence shook the world, although his father ultimately failed to rescue him. Qi Sheng was always blocked by various obstacles and could not inherit the position of Ting Hou. However, it also made Diao Wei hesitant, not daring to harm him secretly...

  My son is getting along well with this clan's heroes, but I don't know if it's good luck or bad luck. The Chen family is worried.

  He thought of Qi Shengzhai's humility in inviting a famous doctor for himself. Today, he came to visit again... Such a person's demeanor is admirable.

  But as a mother, I still hope that even if my son can't bring glory to our ancestors, he can at least live a peaceful and safe life. I don't want him to take risks...

  At this time, Liu Yi was still in the temple and had not yet returned to the Taoist temple. He saw a strand of precious purple air slowly entering the temple.

  Liu Yi was shocked, having just seen the green energy turn into a phoenix, and now he saw the purple energy arriving. Such noble energy, could it be... In his heart, he had a faint guess, that the opportunity had arrived.

  Just as I have obtained a hint of vital energy, purple energy arrives. The principle behind this is extremely profound and should not be taken lightly.

  Upon seeing Qi Sheng Li approaching, my heart skipped a beat. His facial features were extraordinary, with an air of heroism about him. However, on top of his head was a massive black aura that pressed down heavily, and if it were anyone else, they would have probably died seventeen or eighteen times already.

  Fortunately, this person's head had a strand of precious purple energy that suppressed his aura and separated the black energy.

  As soon as they met, Liu Yi couldn't help but sigh. There's no such thing as a free lunch in this world!

  To gain the help of this purple energy, one must also share its worries. Unfortunately, my divine position is too low, and I fear that even a hundredth of that evil energy would be enough to make me fall.

  Liu Yi thought so, but he couldn't escape. Even this little purple gas was enough to destroy himself 17 or 18 times... Thinking about it, he felt suffocated!
