When Shen Hao came out of the commander's Yamen, he went to the palace to meet the emperor Yang Shu.
The emperor was very satisfied with Shen Hao's results. Both the results and the time spent were much better than the emperor expected.
However, as for the affairs left by the last four sects, the emperor was not prepared to return those resources as Shen Hao expected.
"Joke! Their sect can secretly dig the corner of the imperial court, and the imperial court is not allowed to punish them openly and reduce them? Shen Hao, you are now the foreign affairs deacon of Fenghong villa, and you are duty bound to deal with this matter. You must not lose the prestige of the Imperial court, okay?" the emperor said at that time.
Speaking of this, it is obvious that the emperor wants Shen Hao to withstand the pressure of zongmen. However, there is no dead order, which may also take into account that the price of zongmen is not so easy to take, and there are many unpredictable situations. But one thing the emperor made clear was the need to "punish and reduce" the sect, so that they knew the price they would pay if they stretched out their hands indiscriminately.
So in the final analysis, the "degree" has to be controlled by Shen Hao himself.
If you want to make things easier, you should give up most of the seized resources, but this will reduce Shen Hao's points in front of the emperor, and even be regarded as "perfunctory" by the emperor.
On the contrary, if you want to show your face and add points in front of the emperor, it is bound to have friction with the zongmen forces, and the pressure is definitely not small.
If it had been in the past, Shen Hao might have preferred the former approach, because compared with not getting high scores in the emperor, it would be bad if things were intensified and self defeating and out of control.
But now he doesn't think so.
Because I saw the arrogance of Fenghong villa. Since the strength of the old Jing Dynasty not only came from a large number of front armies, but also had a strong foundation in individual strength, Shen Hao incomparably agreed with the emperor's idea: if the sect did something wrong, it can't be easily exposed, and the punishment should be in place anyway.
As for why the former emperors did not do so? That doesn't matter. It was in the past. Now the emperor is Yang Shu. He is a man who must take revenge and be careful. If you mess with it, you must be prepared to be redoubled.
Shen Hao had made a decision when he came out of the palace. In addition, the emperor did not mention any topic about Shen Hao's position. He didn't make any choice between xuanqingwei and Fenghong villa. Here, Shen Haosheng pondered. It seems that the Emperor didn't intend to let him move from Xuanqing Wei. At the same time, he didn't say whether the work of Fenghong villa could be removed after zongmen's current affairs were handled.
Ambiguous seems to be dragging?
After leaving the Imperial Palace, Shen Hao did not return to fengri city. Instead, he changed his carriage and rode all the way out of the imperial city to Fenghong villa. It's all here. Why don't you have to deal with Yang Shan's instructions? Moreover, now Shen Hao is very interested in becoming Yang Shan's disciple, whether for his own sake or for the needs of errands.
This time, Shen Hao was directly welcomed in because of the golden sword accessories hanging around his waist. He didn't wait in the teahouse as last time.
However, after entering the villa, he avoided the obvious main road and took a secluded small stone road. Then he walked up a stream seven turns and eight turns. After walking for almost half an hour, he saw a small yard standing on a small hillside not far away. That is the residence of Yang Shan and Yang Qingzhi.
"The two ancestors told me that if Lord Shen came, he could go directly to see them. However, these bodyguards of Lord Shen can only stay here. The front belongs to the forbidden area of the villa. You can't set foot without the instructions of the ancestors or under special circumstances."
After Shen Hao nodded, he asked several bodyguards to stay in place and continue to walk on his own. There is no need for people from Fenghong villa to lead the way. There is a gravel road from here to the courtyard on the hillside in front, and there will be no fork.
I thought that since it was called the forbidden area of Fenghong villa, there must be many array defenses and barriers, but Shen Hao knew he was wrong when he stepped on this gravel road. There is no array fluctuation here. The only good thing is that the aura here is much stronger than that outside.
However, compared with the first-class sect door Shen Hao has been to, the aura of Fenghong villa seems to be much worse. I don't know why.
"If there are two ancestors, why should there be any Dharma array barrier?" Shen Hao laughed at his previous thoughts. He kept walking towards the yard.
In fact, the yard is not small. It is simply surrounded by a fence, but there are only three houses inside. There is a main house facing south, one on the East and one on the West.
The courtyard dam is very spacious, more than ten feet around. It was paved with green bricks and cleaned very clean. There was a big tree to shade the sun. Under the tree was a stone table and a stone stool.
"Boy, Shen Hao wants to see the two ancestors!"
Shen Hao stood more than three feet outside the fence of the yard and stopped moving forward. He bowed and bowed his hands and said hello to the yard.
Eech... The door of the middle hall opened from inside after Shen Hao said hello.
Two people came out. The first one was Yang Shan, and the second one was a tall and thin old man. It must be Yang Qingzhi, the "fire ancestor" of Binghuo's ancestor.
In fact, the "old man" is only called from his age. Outwardly, neither Yang Shan nor Yang Qingzhi is very old, and looks more like a middle-aged man.
"Come in. You came quickly." Yang Shan waved Shen Hao in with a smile. Yang Qingzhi in the back looked up and down at Shen Hao with an expressionless face.
Having entered the courtyard, Shen Hao paused, and his face was stiff. He didn't expect that there would be such a big difference in a few steps away, in terms of rich aura.
Just now, it was said that the Reiki intensity in Fenghong villa is much lower than that in Guishan monastery, but now the Reiki intensity in this small courtyard is several times higher than that Shen Hao felt in Guishan monastery!
Yang Shan sat on the stone bench under the big tree, put tea sets on the table, smiled and greeted Shen Hao, and said: "Don't look like you haven't seen the world. There is a spiritual spring underground. We opened a spring to maintain cultivation on weekdays. It's thicker than outside, but it's nothing. If you have the opportunity to go to the quiet room of wanjuan book mountain and mingshanzong in the future, it will be as rich as water and visible to the naked eye.
Come and sit down. Can you make tea? "
Shen Hao quickly walked over, but he was embarrassed when he looked at the tea set. He was not interested in drinking tea, so he knew how to make tea. He didn't even know the usage of the tea set Yang Shan took out.
Yang Shan was stunned at Shen Hao's expression and said, "you can't make tea?"
"Yes, I drink tea on weekdays just to quench my thirst. If I don't like this one, I haven't learned it."
Yang Shan shook his head and said with a smile, "forget it, I'll make it. You know, this is my senior brother, Mingyang immortal, Yang Qingzhi."
