Becoming a Saint by Leisure Reading

“Minister of Education, but is there really a wonderful way to increase the country’s qi?” Emperor Ye Huan rushed into the Changming Palace, Hou An held a pair of “dragon boots” in his hand and followed closely behind him.

　　”Answering Your Majesty, it will not increase the national qi, but will reduce its loss.” In the Changming Palace, an old man with a craggy face and a young face bowed slightly.

　　This old man is one of the Four Great Masters, and the master of Wenchang Pavilion, who is in charge of literature transport, the Minister of Education Yan Baichuan.

　　Ye Huan hurriedly took Wen Xiang’s hand and sat down, and asked, “I also ask the Minister of Education to explain in detail.”

　　Wen Xiang smiled lightly: “This has to start with the untitled literary heart. Your Majesty still remembers that a person named Chen Luo was mentioned in the Tang News that day.”

　　Ye Huan nodded: “According to the Tang News, the spies of the demon clan were arrested and found the literary heart. This person has made great contributions. I have ordered the main hall to award him a title. Presumably a county baron title.”

　　The minister of education took out a document from his sleeve and handed it to Ye Huan: “Now I’m afraid that the title will be raised again.”

　　Ye Huan took the document from the minister of education in doubt, but did not rush to open it, but looked at the minister of education: “What does the minister of education mean?”

　　Wen Xiang didn’t give a shit, and said directly: “Then Wan’an County is where Wei Yan’s disciples perform their duties. Wei Yan was worried about his disciples, so he personally presided over the ceremony of the literary heart’s master selection. After arriving in Wan’an, Wei Yan accidentally found that Chen Luo actually wrote an article of true meaning, condensing a calligraphy spirit with the ability to eat ghosts, called Zhong Kui.”

　　”Two hours ago, Wei Yan flew the book to the Blue Bird Division and passed the true meaning article to me. I gathered a hundred ordinary people to read this article, and there were actually a dozen people who made the wandering ghosts dare not approach.”

　　”As for the rest of the people, it’s not the article. It should be because the time is short. If you read it every day, it should have the same effect.”

　　”Your Majesty, if our country has ten points of qi, two points of it are spent on protecting the people from the attacks of ghosts. If this article spreads all over the world and everyone reads it, wouldn’t it save two points of qi for the dynasty?”

　　Ye Huan was overjoyed: “Is this true?” After speaking, he hurriedly opened the document, quickly read it through, and then closed his eyes slightly.

　　After a while, Ye Heng opened his eyes: “There is indeed a slight shock in the national qi, and this method is indeed feasible.” Then Ye Heng continued, “But the minister of literature, the people of Daxuan are only 10 million people who know Yawen, and there are 100 million people in my dynasty. Tens of thousands of people, is there any way for them to comprehend this Dharma?”

　　The minister of education said with confidence: “Your Majesty, please read this article carefully. Wei Yan alone told me that the era and characters in the article are all fictionalized by Chen Luo. But at the end of the article, there is a method mentioned, that is to have a holy hand draw the scene of Zhong Kui eating ghosts into a painting as an amulet to avoid ghosts and evil spirits.”

　　”The old minister has a good friend, and his power is wonderful. It is better to ask him to follow the example of Wu Daozi in this article and draw a picture of Zhong Kui eating ghosts. If it is really miraculous, it will be passed on to the world.”

　　”What the minister of education said is exactly what I want, and this matter is left to Wenchang Pavilion to handle. It’s just…” Ye Huan touched his chin, “Has the prime minister of education investigated the background of Chen Luo’s family?”

　　Wen Xiang took out a file from his sleeve and placed it in front of Ye Huan: “Your Majesty is brilliant. This Chen Luo, whose grandfather was from Suzhou, followed the emperor’s southern expedition and settled in Wan’an County, Qingzhou due to the recurrence of an old illness. His father, Chen Buqi, was the 23rd in the imperial examinations in the 19th year of Xinyuan, but he was not accepted after his resignation. He used the pseudonym Yang Ziyun and often wandered in the frontier. Six years ago, when a barbarian king attacked the border, Chen Buqi rescued Zi Sang Cheng, who died in the disaster. Now there are only Chen Luo and his sister Chen Xuan in the family.”

　　Ye Huan’s face became solemn: “A descendant of a loyal and fierce, you must reward… Hou An!”

　　Hou An hurried forward.

　　Ye Huan continued: “In the proposed decree, Chen Luo found heart in the first place, Shu Qiwen protects the country in the back, and I bestow Wan Anbo…”

　　Hou An wrote down and said, “Your Majesty, this Wan’an Bo…but want Wan’an County to be a real fief? According to the ancestral system, if a minister is actually bestowed to another, then he is not allowed to stay in the fief. Should another decree to migrate be issued to him?” Read the most updated version of this novel and other amazing translated novels from the original source at Novel Multiverse – “NovelMultiverse dot com”

　　Ye Huan glanced at Wen Xiang, and Wen Xiang shook his head: “This old man is not in the position to say more.”

　　Ye Huan hesitated for a moment: “I want to draw a picture of Zhong Kui eating ghosts, not to mention that the kid when he has to accept his blessing has to go to Beijing, and he must be a great talent to write such a strange article. Then he ordered the Ministry of Industry to create a supervisory election. In the prosperous land of the capital, Wan Anbo’s mansion was built with the earl system…”

　　Hou An hurriedly said: “Your Majesty, there is no more space to choose from in the prosperous capital of the capital. If it is far away, it will not be able to show His Majesty’s heavy blessing. This slave has a suggestion, which is suitable for Wan Anbo.”

　　”Oh? Where?”

　　”Qing’an Square, abandon the Prime Minister’s Mansion!”

　　…

　　The sun was shining, but Chen Luo was not in a good mood.

　　He had a dream, dreaming that Chen Xuan walked in front of him with a blurred man in his arms, pointed at him and told Chen Luo, “Little Luo, this is your brother-in-law!”

　　A portrait of Chen Luo’s mood: snowflakes fluttering, the north wind is blowing…

　　Fortunately, it was a dream!

　　But–

　　Dreams will one day become reality!

　　I need to adjust my attitude!

　　Chen Luo opened his eyes and saw a forest of flowers in front of him.

　　Yes, Chen Luo needs to take two steps to sleep now. First step is to fall asleep in the outside world, enter the dream flower forest, and then fall asleep in the flower forest. This kind of falling asleep in stages seems to be unbelievably sleepy and I went to bed already. But after going to bed, you can swipe Douyin for another two hours.

　　Luckily he’s not an insomniac!

　　Chen Luo opened his eyes again, and what caught his eye was a man’s face.

　　”Master, you woke up…”

　　Chen Luo subconsciously punched out, the man tilted his head slightly, dodged Chen Luo’s attack, and looked aggrieved: “Master, why did you shoot at me!”

　　Only then did Chen Luo realize that this man was Ji Zhong. The two had reached an agreement yesterday, and Ji Zhong stayed by Chen Luo’s side as a guard.

　　”Brother Ji, it’s best not to be by my side when I’m sleeping in the future.” Chen Luo looked serious.

　　”Why? As the guard of the young master, I should be by the young master’s side anytime, anywhere!”

　　”I might kill people in my dreams!”

　　”No, I watched you for three hours, and the young master sleeps very simply, but only occasionally talks in his sleep.”

　　”What did I say…”

　　”orthopedics……”

　　Chen Luo: (((;???;)))

　　”Master, what is orthopedics?”

　　”A medical category that treats injuries to bones.”

　　Chen Luo was too lazy to talk nonsense with Ji Zhong, got up from the bed, and asked in doubt, “Where’s Xiaohuan?”

　　Ji Zhong replied: “A lot of servants came today, Xiaohuan accompanied Miss Xuan and Uncle Heping to arrange in the front yard.”

　　Chen Luo nodded, it seemed that the servants in the mansion had finally returned.

　　”Are the bland and boring days of the rich second generation finally about to begin?” Chen Luo was secretly proud, walked out of the room, and Ji Zhong hurriedly followed.

　　Chen Luo frowned: “Say Ji Zhong, your body has just improved, why don’t you go back to your room to rest. I’m not in any danger now.”

　　”No. Young Master, didn’t you say you’re going to continue writing “Laughing in the Wind” today?”

　　”That… I’ll go wash my face first and have breakfast.”

　　Ji Zhong suddenly grabbed Chen Luo’s hand, and Chen Luo was startled: “Brother Ji, you…”

　　”Young master, don’t waste your time walking. I’ll take you faster!”

　　”A little bit of noble qi, a thousand miles of joy… let’s go!”

　　Your sister, how big is the backyard in total, why do you still use flash to pass through the wall?
