Chapter 198: Living fools are more valuable than dead geniuses

Huashan, in a quiet courtyard.

The young man from Xuanjia and Ji Chen sat in the pavilion, and the lancers were uniformly guarding outside.

"My name is Ren Yan, and the Minister of War is my uncle." The young man from Xuanjia spoke and introduced himself.

Ji Chen was a little surprised. Good guy, this is still a second-generation official and has a pretty good background.

"You are very good." Ren Yan spoke and said appreciatively.

Ji Chen bowed and said, "Thank you for your praise. I think so too. I have always been very good."

His answer made the young man with Xuanjia stunned for a moment.

Immediately afterwards, Ren Yan laughed, "You are an interesting person. It seems that Lao Liu didn't lie to me."

"Old Liu?" Ji Chen was puzzled, which old Liu?

Ren Yan explained: "Sixth Prince, we all call him Lao Liu. You have seen him. You will know when you go to the capital in the future. But before that, you should improve your strength as much as possible. The stronger the strength, the better."

"The situation in the capital is very complicated. You have already entered the eyes of some people. Your future journey will not be peaceful. Some people in the capital do not want you to enter Beijing alive."

Ji Chen listened carefully and did not express any opinions. In fact, he had nothing to say. Ren Yan knew better about the matter in the capital than him.

As for the old six in Ren Yan's mouth, Ji Chen had already vaguely guessed. If the guess was right, it would be Zhao Guangrong.

He had long suspected Zhao Guangrong's identity, but he didn't expect that his identity was so amazing, he was actually the Sixth Prince.

This old sixth is hidden deep enough.

"I have a doubt!" Ji Chen asked.

"You want to ask about the imperial edict!" Ren Yan smiled and seemed to have known that Ji Chen would ask this question for a long time.

Ji Chen nodded, and he was always confused. Emperor Wu had already transformed into a feather, that is, he was fart. The feathering and ascension were just a saying to give face. So he was always confused. How did the commander ask for an order from the late emperor?

Ren Yan did not answer Ji Chen's question, but asked: "Do you know why Emperor Wu ascended, but the Divine Dynasty is still as stable as Mount Tai?"

"Five parties?" Ji Chen answered unsure.

Ren Yan said: "This is just one of them. In fact, what really makes the Divine Dynasty stable as before is the Great Seal of Emperor Wu."

"The Emperor Wu ascended, but the seal of Emperor Wu is still there. The seal of Emperor Wu is the dragon vein of the Ming Dynasty and is also the artifact of the Ming Dynasty's state-controlling state. The Emperor Wu ascended, the seal of Emperor Wu is jointly dominated by the five parties of the Ming Dynasty's divine dynasty. Every year, the five parties each have an opportunity to use the seal of Emperor Wu, so this time, the commander used the seal of Emperor Wu."

Ji Chen roughly understood that these five parties were like the Five Constant People in their previous lives. The right to use the imperial seal was like a veto.

However, Ji Chen had a doubt.

What a great commander is? He was a genius who had fought for the demon saint for a thousand and five hundred years and allowed the demon clan to retreat to the southern border for a whole thousand and five hundred years.

With his strength, even if he doesn't use the imperial seal, who dares to have any objection with just one sentence?

As if seeing Ji Chen's doubts, Ren Yan explained: "The situation in the capital is very complicated. Although the commander is unparalleled in the world, he cannot cover the sky with his hands. Some things are the same, and you will know when you go to the capital in the future."

"Also, if the imperial edict is released, you can save your life at critical moments. Remember, there are no geniuses in this world, and there are no fools. Only living people and dead people. Living fools are more valuable than dead geniuses."

"I've been taught!" Ji Chen bowed.

In fact, without Ren Yan's words, Ji Chen also knows this truth. Living people are always more valuable than dead people.

No matter how glorious you are, you will be the best in the world, and if you die, you will be a piece of loess.

The value of a living person is much greater than that of a dead person.

The two chatted for a long time, and Ji Chen had a general understanding of the situation in the capital and the world.

According to Ren Yan's words, with his current cultivation level, if he enters Beijing, he will probably not even have one shot and will be in ashes.

Ren Yan said: "Do you know why you were transferred to Luocheng as a governor?"

Ji Chen bowed, "I hope to hear the details!"

Ren Yan explained: "Luocheng is the King of Mingyue, which is the territory. Your main purpose of going to Luocheng this time is to investigate the King of Mingyue's Mansion. Before going to Luocheng, we should first find Commander Lu Lin to report that Yanzhou is the territory of Commander Lu Lin, and the entire Jinyiwei of Yanzhou is under his jurisdiction."

Ren Yan did not say what to investigate, but just gave a vague explanation. But Ji Chen felt that this trip was not that simple.

"Who is the commander of Shuzhou?" Ji Chen suddenly asked.

One sentence.

Before, he had always suspected that the matter of transferring him to the Cotton City was that people in the court directly inserted their hands, but just now, he suddenly understood.

Just relying on his own small general flag, there is no need for the big bosses in the court to take action. A commander or even a deputy commander is enough.

Ren Yan did not answer Ji Chen's question as soon as possible, but stared at him for a while before speaking: "The commander of Shuzhou is Luo Jinwen, the one who transferred you to Miancheng is his deputy, deputy commander, Huang Anhua."

Huang Anhua, the moment he heard this name, Ji Chen suddenly thought of the letter he found a few months ago at the Fengxue Mountain Temple.

The signature of that letter was Anhua.

Ren Yan stared at Ji Chen and said lightly: "I know you are angry, but Huang Anhua's identity is not simple. He is the direct line of the Huang clan in Yanzhou. His mother is the second wife of Huang clan. He is very good at everything in the entire Huang clan. His father is a doctor in the Ministry of Justice."

Ji Chen said: "The relationship is quite complicated. I want to know how such a person got into the Jinyiwei?"

"This is the officialdom. The battle for the throne has the greatest impact on the Jinyiwei. There are already many factions in the Jinyiwei, and many people are choosing to take sides."

Ren Yan said lightly, no one can protect himself from the struggle for the throne. Everyone wants to fight for the achievements of the dragon, and the commander did not object, so the situation inside the Jinyiwei is far more complicated than imagined.

After a pause, Ren Yan said again, "Sometimes, when you have no strength, you need to endure. Today's hidden dragon is in the abyss, just for the flying dragon in the sky in the future."

Ren Yan advised him, perhaps because Ji Chen is the most optimistic person in charge of the commander, or perhaps because of Lao Liu.

Ji Chen nodded, "Well, I understand the truth, I know what to do."

After seeing Ren Yan off, Ji Chen was about to go out, but Feng Qingyang came out from nowhere.

"Are you leaving?"

Ji Chen nodded.

"Oh..."

The wind is clear and happy, and you want to speak but stop.

"Let me go!" Ji Chen said lightly.

"Can I go to Luocheng with you?"

Ji Chen looked at Feng Qingyang in confusion. What kind of meaning is that he is addicted to being beaten?

Masochist constitution?
