Chapter 15: Drinking

Qi Xuansu wanted to unite some forces, but it was obvious that Zheng Jiaohe was not the object that could be united, so Qi Xuansu didn't want to save face for him: "This is not nonsense, this is dereliction of duty."

Zheng Jiaohe looked at Qi Xuansu: "What does Qi Cixi mean?"

Qi Xuansu said unhurriedly: "The great master of the palace is in charge of military affairs, the real person in charge of the government is in charge of personnel, and the chief deputy government is in charge of government affairs, and my duty as the second deputy lord is to be in charge of the law, including internal discipline, implement the will of the Jinque and the Taoist government, supervise the Taoist priests at all levels, and enforce discipline."

Zheng Jiaohe's face squeezed out a little smile.

In the black words inside the Daomen, the second deputy lord is a whip, which can be summed up in two words: supervision.

Qi Xuansu continued: "I don't have personnel power, and I can't dismiss this person on the spot, but I always have the power to suspend him from his post and wait to participate. I'm going to take people away today, and I'm going to ask Deputy Mansion Master Zheng to put up a post, and then let someone else take over his duties for the time being."

Zheng Jiaohe's back was cold.

Tian Yongfen can become the chief Taoist priest here, of course, not because of how capable he is, but because he is good at figuring out his intentions, can serve Zheng Jiaohe comfortably, and knows how to be filial, and can be regarded as Zheng Jiaohe's confidant.

If Tian Yongfen falls into the hands of Qi Xuansu, maybe it will involve Zheng Jiaohe.

Of course, Zheng Jiao He couldn't let Qi Xuansu take people away, and muttered, "This is a bit unreasonable, right? It's not a crime to be suspended, so it's better to let him stay here in the state palace."

Qi Xuansu said: "Although in a strict sense, this Tian Lord's body is indeed not guilty, but I already have evidence of the Tian Lord's dereliction of duty, so don't you want to take a look at it?"

As he spoke, Ke Qingqing had already handed the Shadow Stone to Qi Xuansu's hand.

Zheng Jiaohe glanced at the shadow stone in Qi Xuansu's hand, and said slowly, "I can trust Qi Cixi, so I don't need to look at it."

Qi Xuansu continued: "The defection of Qian Xiangyun, the former deputy head of the Dijing Provincial Mansion, presumably Deputy Mansion Master Zheng should have heard about it, and I can even be regarded as half a party, the lessons from the past are not far away, in order to prevent this kind of thing from happening again, so it is better for me to take people away." It's not a detention, it's some preventive protection."

Zheng Jiaohe put his hands behind his back, his left hand held the wrist of his right hand, and his right hand was clenched into a fist.

This is his territory, and if there is any conflict, he will have the upper hand.

At that moment, heavy footsteps rang out outside the door.

It's not the footsteps of one person, it's the footsteps of a group of people.

Zheng Jiaohe turned around and looked back suddenly, and saw a piece of black oppression.

It's the spirit officer.

Naturally, there were guarding spirit officials on the side of Fuguan, but after seeing the spirit officer who was the leader, he didn't dare to make a move.

A first-class spirit officer, Ding Chou spirit officer.

It is said that Lan Dazhen has two hands, which represent two first-grade spirit officials. The right hand is clenched into a fist and punches outward, while the left hand is spread five fingers apart and held Borneo inward.

This Ding Chou Lingguan is the left hand of Lan Da Zhenren.

Zheng Jiaohe's face became solemn.

It is a basic principle that the law must be supported by the power of war.

Qi Xuansu commanded, "Take it away."

Immediately, two spirit officers stepped forward, one on the left and one on the right, and lifted up the Tian master who was paralyzed on the ground.

"Deputy Mansion Master, Deputy Mansion Master." Tian Yongfen looked at Zheng Jiaohe desperately, like a drowning man trying to hold on to the last straw.

Zheng Jiaohe didn't look at him, but said, "It's rare for Qi Cixi to come here, and I have already asked people to prepare a wine banquet to wash the dust for Qi Cixi."

Qi Xuansu was noncommittal: "Drink early in the morning? Not so good. Let others know, and when we are all a bunch of wine bags and rice bags, in addition to drinking all day long, it is drinking, you say yes, Lord Tian."

Tian Yongfeng was speechless.

Zheng Jiaohe said with a smile: "It's different, it's different, this is normal social etiquette, that is, ordinary people's homes, when guests come, they also have to set up a banquet to entertain, human nature. If Qi Cixi doesn't agree, he will look down on me

Lao Zheng."

Qi Xuansu glanced at him: "Well, since it is the intention of Deputy Mansion Master Zheng, I naturally can't live up to it."

He looked at Ding Chou again, "Let's go together."

Ding Chou Lingguan did not refuse.

Zheng Jiaohe smiled and said, "Please move."

The banquet was set up on the side of the state palace, with a big pomp and circumstance, more than a dozen people, all of whom were Taoist priests from the state palace.

After some humility, Qi Xuansu insisted on letting Ding Chou Lingguan sit on the main seat, after all, he had not yet been promoted to the second-grade Taiyi Taoist, and he could not be compared with the first-grade Lingguan.

The Daomen respects the left, since Ding Chou Lingguan sits in the main seat in the middle, then logically speaking, Qi Xuansu should sit on the left as the second seat, at least they should be polite to each other, but Zheng Jiaohe seemed to have forgotten such a thing, and sat on the left side of the position.

Zheng Jiao why he didn't understand this truth, it must be intentional. Although he said it nicely, he was hostile to Qi Xuansu in his bones, because of Tian Yongfen's matter, it could even be said that the two had become evil, so he deliberately showed a kind of contempt at this time. Further, he despised not only Qi Xuansu, but also a kind of disdain for the will represented by Qi Xuansu. Sent a Qi Xuansu, just want to turn Borneo upside down? That's dreaming.

Of course, this kind of disdain is still panic at all, the so-called annoyance and anger, but after years of ups and downs, he can't slap the table and scold his mother like the reckless rivers and lakes, or directly start a fight, so after the specific expression, it becomes such an awkward way.

Soon, the wine was served.

At a glance, it turned out to be all "drunk and dreaming of death".

You must know that when Zhang Yuelu was not identified as the third-generation leader of the Zhang family, he couldn't even afford to drink this kind of wine, so he could only think about it, but with a wave of his hand, this Deputy Mansion Master Zheng came up directly to the four altars.

Qi Xuansu glanced at it: "It's a little too much."

Zheng Jiaohe said: "It's not too much, this "drunken life and dream death" is a wine exclusively for real people, Qi Cixi is already a substitute seat at a young age, and as long as he makes some achievements, the position of a real person is in his pocket. With this real wine, I wish Qi Daoyou to become a second-grade Taiyi Taoist priest as soon as possible."

This is a thorny statement, first pointing out that Qi Xuansu is only the second seat, and implying that Qi Xuansu is not a second-grade Taiyi Taoist.

Qi Xuansu didn't seem to hear Zheng Jiaohe's words: "Since Deputy Mansion Master Zheng said so, it seems that I can't excuse myself too much."

Immediately, someone poured Qi Xuansu full of wine.

Qi Xuansu raised his glass and took a symbolic sip.

Zheng Jiaohe immediately said in a strange manner: "It seems that Qi Daoyou doesn't look down on my old Zheng, and he doesn't want to drink a glass of wine. Also, Qi Cixi is a young talent who is expected to compete for the Great Commander, and naturally there is no room for a character like me in his eyes."

Qi Xuansu didn't speak.

If it was according to his previous temper, he would directly pour wine on the old boy's face, and then tell him, I just look down on you, why, are you not convinced?

But now that his identity is different, Qi Xuansu wants to be restrained a little, so he drank all the wine in the cup in one gulp, and then said, "I drank it, but Deputy Mansion Master Zheng didn't drink it, so does Deputy Mansion Master Zheng look down on me?"

Zheng Jiao He relied on his self-cultivation realm and drank it all in one gulp.

Next, Zheng Jiaohe picked up his wine glass again: "Qi Daoyou not only represents the Taoist government, but also represents the golden que, that is, the Qincha, the angel, on behalf of the above to inspect the below, those of us who are doing things at the bottom, naturally we must salute the second cup and let him say a few good words for us."

The words fell, and everyone at the table raised their glasses in unison.

Ding Chou Lingguan frowned slightly.

Qi Xuansu motioned to Ding Chou Lingguan to be restless, and didn't look at the people who were toasting, but just stared at Zheng Jiaohe: "Doesn't Vice Mansion Master Zheng respect me for a cup?"

He has already seen it, why does this Zheng Jiao want to pour him with "drunken life and dream death", want to make him make a fool of himself in public after getting drunk, and then make a fuss about it - even you, the second deputy mansion master in charge of discipline, are drunk, so what is Tian Yongfen's sin? It's not even a sin at all.

You don't hold yourself right, and what kind of face do you have?

Face to talk to others?

I have to say that Zheng Jiaohe was a little anxious, and in such a short period of time, he came up with a way to exonerate Tian Yongfen.

Hearing Qi Xuansu say this, Zheng Jiaohe also raised his glass.

The two drank it all again.

Under the hint of Zheng Jiaohe, a group of people began to toast in turn, all of them with lotus tongues, saying that if Qi Xuansu didn't drink this glass of wine, he would look down on them and chill people's hearts.

If Zhang Yuelu is here, I am afraid that he has already flipped the table, and he clearly looks down on you wine bags and rice bags, who else has a heart to speak of, do you still want to use these unknown things to kidnap me?

However, Qi Xuansu is not Zhang Yuelu, he didn't turn his face directly, and he knows the truth of catching a person when he is besieged, so he stared at Zheng Jiaohe. Only if Zheng Jiaohe drinks, he is willing to drink, otherwise Zheng Jiaohe looks down on him, and he can be regarded as giving back to him in his own way.

Zheng Jiaohe is also a cultivator of the immeasurable stage of heaven and man, but he stays in this realm for a longer time, and Qi Xuansu's age is here, before the age of twenty, he is mediocre, obviously not a genius like Daomen Sanxiu, he must be able to enter the immeasurable stage with the help of external forces, not to mention the short time for promotion, he is still a scattered person, and his realm cultivation is almost like a paper paste, how can he be compared with him?

Therefore, Zheng Jiaohe was not afraid at all, and made up his mind to consume Qi Xuansu.

The two of them each had a glass, and in the blink of an eye, the two jars of wine were empty.

Zheng Jiaohe was drunk and hazy, swaying.

On the other hand, Qi Xuansu is still very sober.

Qi Xuansu is nominally a scattered person, but in fact, he is an acquired immortal who is not more reasonable than the immortals, where is it comparable to ordinary and immeasurable people.

There are only two acquired immortals in the entire Daomen.

The Li family knew this secret, but they wouldn't talk nonsense everywhere, because Li Changge was also an acquired immortal. The whole truth and righteousness will not be widely proclaimed.

Zheng Jiaohe secretly miscalculated, but he was afraid that Qi Xuansu was not drunk yet, and he himself would get drunk first.

It's just that the offensive and defensive forces are different.

He wanted to drink it, but Qi Xuansu didn't let him go, and pulled him to drink it to the end.

Another jar of wine went down.

"I...... I just can't drink it." Zheng Jiaohe waved his hand again and again, and no matter what Qi Xuansu said, he refused to drink it anymore.

Qi Xuansu smiled: "Deputy Mansion Master Zheng proposed to drink, I agreed, and now Deputy Mansion Master Zheng wants to regret it again, can everything in the world come according to your temperament?" You can fight when you want to, you can fight when you want to, you can play when you want to, it's too beautiful, right?"

As soon as Zheng Jiaohe was about to speak, he felt a hand pinch his neck from behind, making him unable to move.

I don't know when, Ding Chou Lingguan appeared behind Zheng Jiaohe.

Qi Xuansu picked up the last altar of "Drunken Life and Dream Death" with his right hand, and pinched his chin with his left hand, forcing him to tilt his head and open his mouth.

"Don't you often say that the wine table is like a battlefield? Then I will tell you that there is a price to pay for surrendering on the battlefield."

Then in the horrified eyes of the crowd, Qi Xuansu poured all the jars of "drunken life and dream death" into Zheng Jiaohe's mouth.
