"Be bold!"

There were shouts at the door of the jade shop.

At the same time, a man stepped forward and grabbed the tip of the whip that almost hit Chen Hao's face, and pulled the knight off his horse with a strong tug.

The knight fell onto the stone pavement.

The other three knights dismounted, helped up their companions, and confronted the man who took action.

"Daddy..."

The frightened little girl cried and ran towards a middle-aged man and woman standing at the door of the jade shop.

The man and woman were richly dressed.

The middle-aged man who picked up the little girl looked dignified and showed no anger.

Although he was dressed in civilian clothes, he had a bronze medal hanging around his waist, which is a symbol of the status of officials below the third rank.

The man confronting the four knights was obviously a guard.

"We are disciples of the Qingyun Sect!"

The leading knight glared at the middle-aged man and revealed his identity.

Qingyunmen.

The first sect in Cangzhou and the first-class sect in Daxia.

Qingyun Sect has many first- and second-level warriors, and the current Cangzhou garrison is a disciple of Qingyun Sect, so these four people galloped around the city without any scruples.

"I am He Jie, the newly appointed deputy envoy to comfort Cangzhou. You guys openly violated the laws of Daxia and ran wildly in the busy city, ignoring the safety of the people!"

The middle-aged man also revealed his identity.

A deputy pacification envoy of a state, a fourth-grade civil servant, definitely considered a high-ranking official in a place far away from the Holy Capital.

The four disciples of Qingyun Sect are still arrogant.

"Guard Tang, take them down!" He Jie ordered the guard.

Chen Hao could tell at a glance that the guard He Jie was a sixth-level warrior who was in the early stage of the Qi Refining Realm. He was more than enough to deal with four Body Forging Realm warriors.

Tang Huwei burst out with momentum.

The expressions of the four Qingyun Sect disciples suddenly changed, and before they had time to react, they were knocked down by Tang Guards from the air and unable to move.

"Husband, Qingyun Sect has a great influence in Cangzhou. General Wang, the envoy of Cangzhou, is a disciple of Qingyun Sect."

He Jie's wife, Cao Yunniang, reminded He Jie in a low voice.

"Madam, don't worry. If you behave uprightly and have no shame in your heart, no shame in the court, and no shame in the teachings of the academy's teachers, you will have nothing to fear."

He Jie is upright.

Chen Hao was sure that the deputy envoy of Cangzhou's pacification was not just pretending, and said with a smile: "That's good."

He Jie looked at Chen Hao with a smile on his face. He handed his daughter to his wife and said to Chen Hao, "My benefactor."

"If I don't stand up, this guard Tang can save your beloved daughter, but he really can't be your benefactor."

After Qin Kai finished speaking, he bowed, neither humble nor arrogant.

"At a critical moment, standing up for your little girl is a kindness." He Jie was very kind to Chen Hao, not just because of this kindness.

He is a disciple of Chongshengyuan.

The first of the ten precepts of Chongshengyuan is not to bully scholars, that is, to respect every scholar.

Chen Hao is dressed up as a scholar, but looks a little downcast.

A down-and-out scholar is also a scholar.

"I admire you for your high righteousness." Chen Hao said this from the bottom of his heart.

There is only one fourth-grade official who is so approachable and approachable.

"I think you look like a scholar, have you ever obtained any honors?" He Jie asked Chen Hao while looking Chen Hao up and down.

"I am a student from Heyuan Prefecture in Ganzhou. My surname is Chen and my first name is Ruize." Chen Hao casually made up a false identity.

"Since you are a scholar, don't call yourself a subordinate anymore. I am a second-ranked scholar of Chongshengyuan disciples. You can call yourself a student in front of me."

He Jie gently stroked his beautiful beard under his chin and smiled at Chen Hao.

In the eyes of others, Chen Hao was lucky.

"Thank you, sir, for your support." Chen Hao bowed again.

"Keep out of sight."

He Jie stepped forward and gently supported Chen Hao's arm.

At this time, a group of soldiers arrived and saluted He Jie, who had been serving for three days, with fists in his hands.

"Put these lawless lunatics in jail and await judgment!" He Jie lowered his face and ordered the soldiers, who looked completely different from the previous appearance.

"Yes!"

More than a dozen soldiers responded to He Jie solemnly, and immediately lifted up the four people who were lying on the stone road and could not move.

He Jie said to Chen Hao: "If you haven't settled in yet, you can follow me back home."

"This……"

Chen Hao hesitated.

This is his plan to travel around the world while concealing his identity, including going deep into the territory of the wolf clan.

He Jie thought Qin Kai was embarrassed, so he grabbed Chen Hao's arm and said, "I regard you as a junior in the clan, so there is no need to be polite."

Chen Hao: "..."

Unable to reject the hospitality, Chen Hao had no choice but to follow He Jie.

Furthermore, He Jie is a good person and a good official. If he slaps Qingyunmen in the face in public today, it may not be without consequences.

He stayed in Lin'an for a few more days to prevent Qingyunmen from targeting He Jie.

State Yamen, the place where the pacification envoys work and live.

He Jie has another mansion, close to the state government office.

He Jie had no need to go to the office today, so he took Chen Hao directly back to the mansion and asked the old housekeeper to arrange a small courtyard for Chen Hao.

into the night.

He Jie was drinking and chatting with Chen Hao in the small courtyard.

"When will the bright moon come? Ask the blue sky for wine..." He Jie was very interested in poetry and chanted his favorite poem loudly.

At the end of the chant, he held the wine glass high with one hand and slapped the table with the other hand to make the beat, feeling high-spirited.

Chen Hao waited for He Jie to finish reciting the masterpiece he had brought to this world, and applauded.

"Bai Shaocheng... no... it's Chen Hao's poem. I like it best, but..." He Jie's smile disappeared at the end and he sighed.

He was both talented in both civil and military skills, and his poetry skills were unparalleled. It was a pity for He Jie that such a genius turned into a rebel.

Moreover, the emperor wanted to ban the poetry written by Chen Hao. Fortunately, most of the officials in the court opposed it, so the emperor temporarily gave up.

Chen Hao said casually: "Everything in the world is impermanent."

He Jie was silent for a moment and said with a worried look on his face: "On the eve of coming to Cangzhou to take office, my mentor told me that there is a sign of chaos. Let me stick to my heart and keep the peace."

"My lord's mentor..."

"My mentor is a great scholar of the time, his surname is Zhuo."

He Jie only told Chen Hao his mentor's surname.

Chen Hao thought of Zhuo Buqun and pretended to admire him, saying, "Could it be Mr. Zhuo from Beishan Academy?"

Chongshengyuan is also called Beishan Academy by literati all over the world.

He Jie smiled and nodded.

Having such a mentor was the greatest honor in his life.

"Disrespect!" Chen Hao cupped his hands.

"I told you before, no need to be polite..." Before He Jie finished speaking, Guard Tang opened the courtyard door and walked in quickly.

"Your Majesty's personal soldier commander is here and wants to see you." Tang Guard's words made He Jie frown.

Shen Liuyun, the garrison envoy of Cangzhou, is a disciple of the Qingyun Sect and is well known to the locals.

He Jie naturally knew it well.

At this moment, he concluded that Shen Liuyun had sent people to the door late at night to catch those lawless gangsters, and his face was as heavy as water.

"It's getting late, you should rest." He Jie said and stood up. The commander of the guards' soldiers was a fourth-grade military attache, and he had to receive him personally.

Chen Hao escorted He Jie to the courtyard gate. Watching He Jie walk away, he concluded that a storm was inevitable.
