The first thing Chu Fengge did after returning to the headquarters of the Exorcism Department in the capital was to summon all his subordinates into the room and said to them with a straight face:
"Come up. The poem I wrote for this officer was so bad! I couldn’t say it in front of others!”
After hearing his words, the subordinates bowed and admitted their mistake: “Master Chu, My literary talent is limited and I really can't write a better work. Please forgive me."
"What a bunch of trash!" Chu Fengge snorted coldly.
Then he took out a pen and paper from the drawer, swiped a few times and silently wrote down the poems about plum blossoms that Gu Xu had written in the "Hundred Flowers Poetry Club" in Lu's haunted house, and handed them to in the hands of subordinates.
"Next time the poems you write for me must reach this level!" Chu Fengge pointed to the three plum poems on the paper and said to his subordinates.
The subordinates took a closer look and were stunned on the spot.
The three poems on the paper - whether it is the coldness and aloofness of "There are several plum blossoms in the corner, Ling Han blooms alone", or the different feeling of "I wear this body in the ice and snow forest, different peaches and plums are mixed with the fragrance dust" The vulgarity, or the boldness and freedom of "when the mountain flowers are in full bloom, she laughs in the bushes", are the standards that they can only admire but cannot reach.
"Master Chu, which famous artist are these poems... written by?" Xu San, the leader, asked cautiously.
In his opinion, someone who can write poems of this caliber is probably already famous, and maybe he is a famous literary figure in the Qi court who is famous all over the world.
"Just a nobody." Chu Fengge responded expressionlessly.
He doesn’t want to help Gu Xu promote his reputation!
"I will give you three days," Chu Fengge continued after a pause. "After three days, if you cannot write poems of the same level, your salary for the next month will be gone. "
After finishing speaking, Chu Fengge turned around and left without stopping for a moment.
Only a group of subordinates were left standing silently, looking at the poems on the paper, wanting to cry without tears.
"Master Chu, you are really making things difficult for us!"
…………
At the same time.
In another room at the Exorcist Division headquarters, Shangguan Jin was sitting on the floor, reading a document attentively.
Her eyes lingered on the line "The Yishui Exorcism Department, through Gu Xu, successfully cracked the case of Lu's haunted house and became the new owner of the 'Jinghong Pen'".
Gu Xu was recognized by Jinghongbi - although this matter was not officially recorded in the court newspaper, it was not a secret in the eyes of the senior officials of the Exorcism Department and the powerful people of the Daqi Dynasty.
After the Emperor of Da Qi learned the news from Luo Sishou, he did not hide it from the outside world. Instead, he deliberately leaked it, as if he wanted the entire court to know that a new star born from a commoner was rising. .
"It's incredible!" After readingAfter reading the contents of the document, Shangguan Jin sighed sincerely.
Not long ago, Gu Xu's performance in the "Reviewing Pot" illusion was still fresh in her memory.
On the one hand, Gu Xu is really handsome, and Shangguan Jin is a real face-controller. She has always admired everything that looks good except Chu Fengge’s embroidered pillow——< /p>
For example, the starry night sky, the Luohe River in early spring, the enviable bumpy figure of Princess Zhaoning, or the refreshing and clean youthful look of Gu Xu’s eyes and eyebrows.
On the other hand, Gu Xu's unexpected and clever breakthroughs time and time again in Taoyuan Town also left a very deep impression on her.
But Shangguan Jin never expected that in less than a month, Gu Xu would grow from an inconspicuous first-level official to what he is now.
"No wonder the Chief of Staff has always valued him so much!" Shangguan Jin thought to himself, "Such talents and opportunities are something that most people cannot envy."
At this moment, Luo Chuan, the head of the exorcism department, suddenly appeared quietly in the room.
"Xiaojin?"
"I have met the Chief Secretary." Shangguan Jin immediately stood up and bowed to Luochuan.
“The Laoshan ruins in Jiaodong Province will be opened in the first month of next year,” Luo Chuan said lightly, “Logically speaking, only the reservists of the Shenji Battalion in Jiaodong Province are eligible to explore there. But I asked for a spot from Qianhu Shilei from Laizhou Prefecture.
"When then, you can go to Laoshan to look for opportunities together!" ”
Hearing this, Shangguan Jin was particularly surprised.
She knew very well that there was a cave left by the ascended immortal on Mount Laoshan—the things left by the immortal must have been It is extraordinary and will definitely be of great help to her future cultivation.
However, she still lowered her head and said softly to the Chief: "Master Chief, don't you think about Senior Brother Chu? He has always been a competitive person. If he loses this opportunity, he will probably be very angry... Like me, I just hope that our exorcism department can be harmonious..."
"Chu Feng Ge's mentality has collapsed," Luo Sishou interrupted her calmly, "He has locked himself in the ashram now and will not come out even if he beats him to death. ”
“Has your mentality collapsed? How is that possible? "Shangguan Jin was deeply surprised.
In her impression, Chu Fengge has always been a heartless and overconfident person - even if he encounters a big setback, even in "discussions" In "The Realm of the Tao", he was defeated by Jiange Su Xiao with a sword, and he also vowed to shout, "Just wait for me, I will win it back."
How could such a mental collapse happen? Did it happen to him?
“Because he experienced the shattering of dreams and real despair,” Luo Sishou chuckled and replied, “However, your senior brother Chu has always been arrogant and unruly, and occasionally suffered A little blow is a good thing for him - just take it asLet's temper his temperament! ”
………
Princess Zhaoning’s Mansion is located on the south bank of Luohe River.
It is surrounded by mountains and rivers, with beautiful scenery, and the magnificent Zichen Palace. Facing each other from a distance is a rare Feng Shui treasure in Luojing City.
At this moment, Princess Zhaoning Xiao Wanjun, known as the "most beautiful woman in Luojing", is sitting behind the table in the lobby. , handling the government affairs of the court.
I saw that she was not wearing makeup, wearing a headscarf, her long hair was tied into a man's bun, and she was also wearing a simple and plain men's robe, with thick eyebrows, Her sharp eyes exuded a heroic spirit.
However, her flowery face and the proud curves of her chest gave her a bit of charm.

“You did a terrible job this time! She pointed at a document on the table and scolded the subordinates in front of her, "Look carefully for yourselves. How many details are missing from the intelligence I asked you to collect?"
"You just tell me that this young man named Gu Xu has become the new owner of Jinghong Pen - what is his background? What are his qualifications? What about the spells and martial arts he has mastered? What about his past mission experience? ?"
