Chapter 47: The Art of Manipulating

In the evening of the same day, Gu Du returned to the palace, and Li Xia was both surprised and surprised, and asked, "Why did you come back?" ”

Gu Du replied: "Just sprinkle a few days of joy, you have to train at night, and you have to practice in the morning, even if I don't grow, I can't delay you." ”

Li Xia didn't believe his words, and asked again: "Did you make Jin Lan angry and be kicked out?" ”

Gu Du smiled and replied, "No, I want to become a soul master as soon as possible, so that I can marry Jin Lan." ”

In a word, Lixia felt cold in her heart, and Gu Du said: "I'll go and talk to the guy, and I will have dinner in the palace every night in the future." ”

"Hmm." Lixia nodded stiffly, Gu Du left, and Lixia's tears fell.

More than a month later, Chu Qin took Shangguan He back to the residence in the palace, although Shangguan He was nominally a soul master, but she did not have the ability to lead the soul army to fight, so she was not assigned a soul army, and even after the war, the loss of the soul army was not small, and she could no longer be transferred from other soul masters.

Gu Du asked Chu Qin: "Soul Master, when will the disciple be promoted to the Soul Master?" ”

Chu Qin asked rhetorically, "Do you want to marry Jin Lan?" ”

Gu Du replied: "Yes, the disciple feels that it is not safe for her to live outside the palace, if she becomes a relative to the disciple, she can move into the palace." ”

Chu Qin was silent for a while, and said: "Then we have to solve the problem of her identity first, the identity of the rebel is definitely not good." ”

Gu Du said eagerly: "Please show me how the disciple should behave." ”

Chu Qin said: "The best way is to surrender to naturalization, I will report to the high priest for you, and the high priest will appoint someone to review Jin Lan, and you can be naturalized after passing the examination, but there is one thing, she is not a person from the Imperial Soul Division, even if everything goes well, she and you become a relative, and she can't move into the palace to live." ”

Gu Du was stunned, thought for a while and asked, "Then what if you let her participate in the selection of the children's waiter?" ”

Chu Qin said: "Of course you can, as long as you can become naturalized, you can participate in the next selection of children, but if you want to get married, you don't know what year and month it will be, the next selection of children will be more than two years later, even if she successfully passes, she will have to wait until she becomes a soul master, and you can't get married in advance, because people who become relatives can't participate in the selection of children." ”

Gu Du said: "As long as she can be safe, no matter how many years, I will wait for her." ”

Li Xia sighed, bowed down and said, "Soul Master, when you were on vacation, the High Priest came to the disciple and said that the disciple could be promoted to the Soul Master, and asked the Soul Lord to allow the disciple to be promoted." ”

Gu Du was silent, Shangguan He bit his lip lightly, and Chu Qin replied, "Okay, I'll go to the high priest, and the two of you will talk about it together." ”

After listening to Chu Qin's report, the high priest was silent for a while before calling, "Dongfang Xuan, go and invite the chief priest and the priest to come over." ”

After the two arrived, Chu Qin told Gu Du and Lixia again.

From the priest said: "There is no need to discuss the matter of Lixia, Gu Du's matter, as the soul master, first tell me what you think." ”

Chu Qin said: "The art of controlling people, controlling the heart is the supreme thing, since Gu Du has a soft spot for Jin Lan, as long as Jin Lan is properly placed, Gu Du can be sworn allegiance." ”

From the priest said: "If you fulfill one person, you will hurt another, you have fulfilled Gu Du, but you have injured Lixia, as you just said, what do you say?" ”

Chu Qin replied: "Gu Du has the grace to save his life in Lixia, although Lixia has a deep affection for Gu Duyi, but Gu Du has never promised it from beginning to end, since it is not a chaotic abandonment, naturally there is no need to explain." ”

He bowed from the priest to the chief priest and said, "There is no objection from the subordinates." ”

The chief priest looked at Chu Qin and said, "How can the Imperial Soul Division protect the imperial power and let a rebel join the army?" ”

Chu Qin replied: "Xiang Chongyang is also a rebel, according to Jin Lan's situation, there are still fine works in the Imperial Soul Division, but Jin Lan is sincerely surrendering on the bright side." The emperor Shengming, knowing the essence of the art of controlling people, is like making an exception to be promoted to Shangguan He, and his subordinates are married, and he will definitely be able to take care of himself. ”

The presiding priest saluted the high priest and said, "There is no objection from your subordinates." ”

The chief priest sighed and said, "Pity Lixia...... Zhong Qi, you come to review Jin Lan. ”

The priest answered, "Yes." ”

turned to Chu Qin and said, "Take your waist card and bring Jin Lan into the palace, and come to see this seat tomorrow." ”

Chu Qin bowed and responded: "Yes, the subordinates retired." ”

Chu Qin returned to his residence, handed over the waist card to Gu Du, and said, "You go back now, take Jin Lan into the palace, and go to see the priest tomorrow to review naturalization." ”

Gu Duda was overjoyed, took the waist card and said: "Thank you Soul Master, Soul Master's great kindness, the disciple will not forget it!" ”

Chu Qin instructed again: "Tell Jin Lan that no matter what you ask from the priest, you must answer it according to the truth, and you can't hide it at all." ”

Gu Duying said: "Yes." ”

Chu Qin said again: "You can go now." ”

Gu Duying said: "The disciple retired. ”

Gu Du left, and Shangguan He grabbed Lixia and said, "If you want to cry, cry." ”

Li Xia flattened his mouth and said: "Don't cry, cry enough, he told me very clearly, he never asked me to reciprocate, he only likes Jin Lan, he is good and I am happy, anyway, I kissed him." ”

Shangguan He looked at her with unexpected eyes, and Li Xia twisted and said: "Rizhao Guan escaped death, he slept like a dead pig, I thought, I can't get it anyway, kiss it first, let that Jin Lan pick up the rest." ”

Shangguan He hugged Lixia and giggled, Lixia hugged her back, and tears flowed out.

Gu Du ran home and excitedly told Jin Lan about the situation, but Jin Lan bit her lip and was silent.

Gu Du asked, "What's wrong?" You don't want to? ”

Jin Lan said, "Don't you think it's too easy? I'm a little person with no prestige and dispensability, not only did I be allowed to defect to naturalization, but I was also allowed to participate in the selection of children's servants, and even became a soul master? ”

Gu Du smiled and said: "What's so strange about this, this is what those big people said about the trick of controlling people, accepting you is tying me up, just like the emperor made an exception to promote my senior sister, in fact, my senior sister is not qualified for promotion at all, but the soul master has made a great contribution, and the emperor will give them a complete marriage, return the favor, and take what they need." ”

Jin Lan smiled and said, "Then you are promoted as soon as possible, and I will be your spiritual servant." ”

Gu Du smiled and nodded, and responded: "Okay, I will definitely be promoted before you participate in the audition, but it is not a spirit attendant, it is a child attendant." ”

"Oh." Jin Lan agreed with a smile.

Gu Du pulled her up and said, "Let's go, let's go to the palace." ”

Jin Lan said, "I'll pack my things. ”

Gu Du said: "You don't need to clean up, it's just a review tomorrow, you should only be able to stay in the palace for one night, let's just sleep together." ”

Jin Lan teased: "Aren't you afraid that your little junior sister will be sad?" ”

Gu Du said solemnly: "Don't laugh at her, Lixia is also a heart for me, I have never had half of the courtesy with her, don't stain the innocence of others." ”

Jin Lan looked embarrassed and responded, "I was wrong. ”
