Promotion Letter for the Chief Executive

Ping An didn't know what Zhao Can was busy with until Kaichun, when his body recovered and he met Changchun Daoist in the palace.

"Apprentice!" Immediately when Master Changchun saw him, he rushed over excitedly.

Ping An was taken aback, and hastily reached out to block the person, "Really, did you recognize the wrong person?"

"That's right, you are the apprentice of the poor!" Changchun Master said, "Your Majesty personally agreed, this time you can't let it go."

From the first meeting, Master Changchun wanted to accept Ping An as his disciple and inherit his mantle.However, Ping An came as an eunuch, and because he couldn't let go of worldly affairs, so he declined repeatedly.Fate is a very mysterious thing, but monks are the most particular about it, so Master Changchun did not force it.

Not seeing each other for more than ten years in a blink of an eye, Ping An thought that he had long forgotten about this, and successfully found a young apprentice to inherit the mantle, but he did not expect that Changchun real person would give him such a big surprise as soon as they met.

But having said that, how old is Changchun real person this year?It still looks so old and vigorous, without the slightest sign of decay, it's incredible!

No, now is not the time to talk about this, Ping An frowned, "You mean, His Majesty agreed?"

What is Zhao Can doing?

"Naturally." Changchun Daoist smiled openly, without the feeling of being a worldly expert at all, "Your Majesty pities the poor and has no successors, so he specially agreed to this matter. You are really a wise man!"

The last emotion was quite embarrassing, and Ping An couldn't help but twitched the corners of his mouth.Co-authoring and giving him as an apprentice means that you have Daoming Lord, what you did before doesn't count?

After Changchun Master finished speaking, he planned to attack Ping An, but Ping An could only try to stop him, "I don't know much about this matter, I have to ask His Majesty first..."

"What are you asking? Could it be that the poor Taoist will lie to you?" Probably because he knew that he couldn't persuade him. Although Master Changchun was not very satisfied, he had no choice but to let go of his hand and asked Ping An to go to Zhao Can to find out what was going on.

This was the first time that Ping An had left the confines of the bedroom after several months.

Not that he never even went out of the house.However, a few times, accompanied by Zhao Can, they walked casually outside and had to turn back soon.

Ping An didn't think there was anything wrong with this before.After all, to him, it was just that Zhao Can was worried about his body, so he had to restrict everything.Although Ping An is not an otaku by nature, he survived.

However, after seeing the Changchun real person appearing now, he began to feel that something was wrong.

Although he can't go out, Zhao Can will visit him every day!But he has never mentioned this matter, if it hadn't been for Ping An to meet him now, he would never have known that Changchun Daoist had entered the palace. ——At least judging from the words of Master Changchun, today will definitely not be his first time entering the palace, and it is even more impossible for Zhao Can to invite Master Changchun into the palace for no reason, just to make him accept himself as a disciple.

what on earth is it?

In fact, since Zhao Can refused to let him go out, but he got busy, Ping An felt that there might be something hidden in this matter.But at that time, he didn't intend to pursue it, because he knew that Zhao Can would not hide important things from himself.But what is this now?

Thinking about it this way, Ping An suddenly lost the excitement and joy of finally being able to come out, and naturally he lost the interest in admiring the beautiful scenery around him.Even in his eyes, everything in front of him, everything in the palace, seemed to be suddenly covered with a strange veil.

Make him unable to understand.

So he needed to find Zhao Can and ask him what was going on.Not only because of the fact that he became the disciple of Daoist Changchun, but also because he wanted to know what happened.

"Of course I know that the real person will not lie to me, but there are still many doubts about this matter. I have to see His Majesty with my own eyes to be sure." Here is a set of news, so he softened his tone and explained.

Master Changchun didn't seem to be angry because of his previous offense. He stroked his beard and said, "It's okay, since you want to be sure, then go and make sure. The master-student fate is established, so naturally there is no rush."

"When did the Daoist first enter the palace?" Ping An asked, "I came in because I was not feeling well and recuperating from illness. I lived in seclusion and neglected the Daoist."

"Last year's winter solstice." Changchun real person replied.

Ping An's heart skipped a beat.

He thought of what happened on the day of the winter solstice, and thought of how long Zhao Can stood at the door, his legs were numb and he didn't enter the house.At that time, it was just that he didn't want to disturb him, but now that he thinks about it, there may be other reasons.

Maybe... Maybe he wanted to speak to himself at the time, but it was a coincidence that he couldn't say it in the end.

Thinking of this, Ping An couldn't help but smile wryly, in his heart, he still believed in Zhao Can after all.He may have some difficulties or reasons, and he failed to tell Pingan his thoughts in advance, but it will not harm him in the end.

Ping An took Changchun Daoist to Benchu ​​Hall.

The guards at the entrance of the hall were two unfamiliar faces that Ping An had never seen before, but they knew Changchun Master. When they saw him, they bowed and said, "Master, there are no courtiers to see you at the moment, let me inform you later."

Then one of them opened the door and went in, and Xiao Fuzi came out after a while.Both sides were shocked when they saw it, and Xiao Fuzi quickly lowered his head, "Your Majesty, I invite the real person to come in."

He didn't even say hello to Ping An.

What the hell is this going on?

When I entered the door, I saw Zhao Can sitting on it, but he didn't get up to greet him, and he didn't seem to see Ping An, he only greeted Changchun Daoist.After the two exchanged pleasantries, Zhao Can looked at Ping An and asked, "Is this the real person's little apprentice?"

"Yes." Master Changchun replied.

Ping An: "..." Wait, is there something wrong with this sequence?

If it wasn't for sure that he had really just been sick for a few months, Ping An might really have thought that he had time traveled again unintentionally, and that he had traveled to a parallel time and space.

He turned his head to look at Xiao Fuzi, Xiao Fuzi lowered his eyebrows and looked at his heart, obviously not intending to exchange eyes with him.Ping An had no choice but to turn back and patiently supported Zhao Can to fight Changchun Zhenren.

Just when Ping An was about to lose control and wanted to ask a question directly, Zhao Can finally turned his attention back to him, "This disciple, Zhenren, seems to me to be kind."

"Your Majesty has never seen it before." Changchun Daoist said seriously, "I think it's because of what he looks like, or maybe he and His Majesty have some affinities."

"I don't remember anyone who looks alike." Zhao Can said, "I think it's because of my predestined relationship. So, I have a heartless request here, and I hope the real person can accept it."

"Your Majesty, it's okay."

"It's rare for me to look down on someone. Since this disciple of Zhenren is destined for me, why not ask Zhenren to keep him by my side as a companion, and we can also debate Daoism from time to time. I think it will be beneficial." Zhao Can said.

"This... Since His Majesty values ​​him, there is nothing wrong with it." Changchun Master said.

So when Ping An didn't understand what was going on at all, the two of them negotiated and sold him.

At the beginning of Ping'an, he was still a little unclear, but later he gradually understood, so he was not in a hurry, and sat calmly by the side, listening to Zhao Can and Master Changchun talking.Anyway, since Master Changchun has already sold himself to Zhao Can, there will be plenty of time to talk later.

Immortal Changchun quickly bid farewell and left. Before he left, he thanked Ping An, saying that he should be cautious in his words and deeds in front of the emperor.

After he left, Ping An turned his gaze to Zhao Can.

Zhao Can had already stood up from his seat, walked quickly towards Pingan, and said with a smile, "What do you want to ask?"

"Stop pretending?" Ping An asked in a calm tone.

Zhao Can couldn't help but raised his hand and touched his nose, "Are you pretending?"

"If you don't sneak peeks at me from time to time, it's more or less like me." Ping An endured a smile and said, "What are you bothering about, can you tell me now?"

"Ping An is so smart, why don't you guess?" Zhao Can shook his hand with a smile, pulled him up, and walked to the resting cubicle at the back.There is a more comfortable arrangement, and it is also suitable for two people to talk.

Ping An said, "I guessed a little bit." He turned his head and stared at Zhao Can, "You arranged a new identity for me?"

"I know that as long as I tell you, I won't be able to hide it from you." Zhao Can shook his head helplessly.

Ping An snorted, "So you've been keeping me in the dark, lying to me for the past few months, even when you came to see me last night, you didn't reveal any news?" Fortunately, last night they were still doing intimate things in the world If he had known that Zhao Can was hiding these things from him, it would be strange if Ping An didn't kick him out of bed!

Zhao Can thought in his heart that he knew you would be angry, so he didn't say anything.If he had told the truth last night, then there would be no peace later.

Now that Ping An had already guessed, Zhao Can naturally relaxed and asked, "How did you guess?"

"I'm not stupid." Ping An said, "You asked Xiao Fuzi to arrange someone to take care of me when I was seriously ill before. After a little better, the people left. After all, it is also the emperor's palace, and there is not even a waiter. I don't even look like the deserted one. In addition, there are new people in front of the palace gate. I don't know what you have been doing these past few months. I just guess that those who know me and are familiar with me have probably been arranged to leave the palace. right?"

"Besides, Master Changchun clearly said that you promised him to make me his apprentice, and then transferred back to you, which is the first time seeing me. Moreover, the two of you clearly have a tacit understanding, and it is clear that you want me to be a disciple of Master Changchun. The identity of the disciple has been revealed. Am I right?"

"That's right." The two of them turned into the back room, Zhao Can pulled Ping An to sit down, hugged Ping An from behind, rested his chin on his shoulder, and then slowly explained his arrangement.

It turned out that Zhao Can had already started preparations a long time ago to rectify Ping An's name.

In fact, in Zhao Can's view, the reason why Dachu is able to exist today is because of its safety.But just because of his status as a eunuch, he can only keep a low profile everywhere, and there is no way to receive these credits.Although Zhao Can understood, she was still unwilling.

In his eyes, Ping An is the best, smartest, most capable and most powerful person in the world, worthy of everyone's praise, and worthy of being famous in history through the ages.

Besides, there is another meaning here, if two people can live forever, it will naturally be regarded as immortality in another sense.Their names will be written side by side and will be eulogized by later generations.Just like those emperors and their trusted ministers in history.

Therefore, it is imperative to rectify the name of Ping An.

Just to do this, the first thing is to replace Ping An with another identity.Change to someone who has a halo, is admired by everyone in the world, and has a somewhat mysterious identity. In this way, first of all, no one will question the credit he has made, and secondly, Ping An can stand upright on his own Side forehead, and not be accused of being a courtier.

After thinking about it, Zhao Can thought of Changchun Immortal.

Master Changchun once wanted to accept Ping An as a disciple, and this identity is undoubtedly the one that Zhao Can is looking for.

The Tianji Temple has a very special status in Dachu, and people all over the world admire it very much. Even among scholars, mentioning the Tianji Temple is mostly a compliment.There are so many hermits living in seclusion on Zhongnan Mountain, mostly because of the view of heaven.

Moreover, there are many folk legends about the view of heaven and earth, and even believe that these Taoist priests have unpredictable abilities, such as being able to call wind and rain, move mountains and fill seas, and so on.

Although this is just an exaggerated folktale, it is enough to illustrate the status and ability of the concept of Tianji in the eyes of the world.If Ping An was born here, even if he did something that he couldn't understand, it would be very natural.As for being able to come up with various policies, it is not surprising.

The only thing to worry about is whether Changchun Daoist still has this kind of thought.After all, it was more than ten or twenty years ago that he said that he wanted to recruit apprentices.Now times have changed, and Ping An is getting older, and he is no longer suitable for inheriting the mantle.Of course, judging from Changchun Master's current performance, this thought has never been extinguished.

Apprentices are not so easy to get.Daoist Changchun hasn't found a suitable disciple these years, so although there are various shortcomings here in Ping'an, he still readily agrees.

Afterwards, Zhao Can made various arrangements.It happened that Ping An was sick and would not appear in front of people for a long time, which made it easier for him to make arrangements.

Including transferring or sending away all the people who knew Ping An in the palace, beating and implying that all those who had seen Ping An but could not deal with them, especially those ministers—this was always a huge project, so Zhao Can started from there. I have been busy since then, and only now have some preliminary results.

At least now that he said that Ping An is the apprentice of Master Changchun, no one would refute it.No matter what is on their mind.

It wasn't until this time that Zhao Can felt that the time was ripe for Ping An to reappear in the eyes of the world.And from the very beginning, he had to appear beside Daoist Changchun and show others as his disciple.

"But," Hearing this, Ping An questioned, "If I was introduced to you as the disciple of Daoist Changchun at this time, what about the old me?" Zhao Can said that all the credit should be attributed to him. .But many people know that some things are done by the eunuch Ping An, so what should I say?

"It doesn't matter. In fact, you have been by my side for a long time, but I just now know that you are the disciple of Daoist Changchun." Zhao Can said.

"Huh?" Ping An was puzzled.

Zhao Can said, "Before the late Emperor passed away, Changchun Daoist once entered the palace. We just need to say that it was because the late Emperor didn't trust me and asked Changchun Daoist to put his little disciple—that is, you, to hide his identity by my side to assist me. That's it."

"..." He never expected that in the end, he could still be called the disciple of a worldly master.

Although there must be various questions in this, but now, Ping An doesn't want to ask for the time being.

For this matter, Zhao Can put in a lot of heart and energy to get this result. How can Ping An not dare to move with such hard work?And now he also understood what Zhao Can meant by not saying anything earlier.

Firstly, he was ill at the time, which meant that he didn't want to disturb him.Secondly, it was probably to give him a surprise. This was what Zhao Can expected, so why not Pingan Suo?Although being a eunuch doesn't seem to be a problem once you get used to it, it's nothing compared to a dignified identity.As for the third, it is to keep Ping An out of everyone's sight temporarily.

Arranging a new identity is a very complicated matter in itself. If Ping An Jian Tianer dangles in front of everyone, it will always be difficult for people to forget his previous identity.But now after several months of isolation, seeing Ping An again, he changed to a new identity. Although he was in a complicated mood, most people accepted it more easily.

"This time you are right, so I won't argue with you." Pingan thought for a while, and said, "But, tell me the truth, is there something else you are hiding from me?"

"Uh..." Zhao Can was momentarily at a loss for words.

Ping An knew at a glance that he had guessed right.

He frowned and stared at Zhao Can, "Be clear, what else did you do?"

"A little arrangement." Zhao Can said to him from left to right, "It's almost time for lunch, I asked Xiao Fuzi to set the meal. Your body is just right, and you need to eat regularly. In case you don't have a good foundation Get ill."

Ping An looked at him steadily for a while, then smiled, but did not pursue it for the time being.

hide?Can you escape the first day of junior high school, or the fifteenth day?Now that things have been done, sooner or later, I will know.It depends on whether Zhao Can knows the truth of lenient confession.

Zhao Can's heart trembled a little when he saw him like this. After hesitating for a moment, he still said, "Forget it, since you want to know, I will tell you everything. But let's eat first, let me think about what to say. Anyway, let the matter go." There, it won't run away."

Ping An nodded in agreement.

As a result, after eating, Zhao Can started to get busy again.I had no choice but to let Xiao Fuzi send Ping An back to his residence.

——That's right, when Ping An was a eunuch, he could live in Zhao Can's bedroom.But now that he is the disciple of Daoist Changchun, it is not easy to arrange it like this.To show his solemnity, Zhao Can arranged a separate palace for him.

It's just that the location of this palace is so intriguing.

The shape of the Great Chu Palace is also the pattern of the front hall and the back bedroom.With the Tiangan Palace where the emperor lived as the boundary, in front of it was the Outer Dynasty, where the emperor and ministers governed.Behind it is the inner palace, which is the residence of the emperor's concubines.

The entire imperial palace is rectangular and symmetrical.On the central axis in the middle, there are six important palaces.The previous dynasty was the early dynasty of the emperor.The three halls where grand ceremonies and sacrifices to heaven are held.The harem is the residence of the emperor.In the middle of the palace where the emperor and queen lived, there is another palace with special functions called Hanyuan Hall.

This is actually a place used for sacrifices, but because it is in the harem, it is not used much.Sometimes ceremonies that require the participation of the queen will be held here.

The residence that Zhao Can arranged for Ping An was the Han Yuan Hall.

The reason why this arrangement can be made is because Ping An is now a disciple of Changchun Daoist, and he can be regarded as half a "high-handed person", so it is just right to live in this kind of sacrificial place.And now, apart from the West Sixth Palace, there are no female relatives living in other places, so they are not afraid of collision.

However, for Ping An, the arrangement of this residence is quite intriguing.

If it is carefully divided, the Hanyuan Palace can be regarded as the empress's territory, Zhao Can let him live here, it may not mean that he is regarded as the "hostess" of this palace.It's just that this expression is very cryptic, and it's hard to understand for a while.

However, just looking at these detailed arrangements, one can tell that Zhao Can is really well prepared for this matter.

I saw the Hanyuan Hall before Ping An, because the late emperor and empress Xu Pingzhi had passed away for many years, so whether it was the Kunhua Palace or the Hanyuan Hall, it looked a little dilapidated and desolate because no one had lived in it for many years and it was not used much.But now it has been refurbished and looks similar to the newly built one.It forms a strong contrast with the declining Kunhua Palace behind.

The layout of the room is all according to Ping An's preferences.Except that outsiders may come to the main hall, so it is arranged in a Taoist style as much as possible, and the rest of the place does not look like a place where Taoists live.But Ping An is a fake Taoist priest anyway, so he doesn't care.

In addition, when Ping An entered the house, he found that many of his clothes and supplies had been sent here.It should be moved here when he went to see Zhao Can.

Among them, there is only one box of clothes left.Because in the past, most of Ping An's clothes were eunuchs' clothes, but now they can't be used anymore.So Zhao Can prepared a lot of Taoist robes and put them in it.

After Ping An read it, he picked out a set of clothes to change into, looked in the mirror, and realized that he already had the air of a worldly expert.
