Chapter 55? Too bad
far cry from their initial lightness and grace.Mu Queji's medicine was very effective at resolving blood poison, Qing Jiuye had fully awakened, but he and Qing Bajie were trapped within this giant tr...Despite all kinds of obstructions from Chongxuan Sheng, the search for Qingyang Town was finally confirmed.

Leading the investigation was Zhang Weiyu, a fourth-rank official from the Ministry of Personnel, and Ma Xiong, a fourth-rank Qingpai Captain.
Ma Xiong was the designated escort from the city patrol department, which was standard practice.
But Zhang Weiyu is truly exceptional.
Under the Grand Secretariat of Qi State, there were three departments: Rites, Household, and Personnel. They were responsible for rituals, economy, and government administration respectively.
Although all edicts originated from the Ministry of Affairs, these three bureaus, as concrete administrative agencies responsible for executing government affairs, also wielded considerable power.

In terms of cultivation, Zhang Weiyu is at the peak of the outer courtyard. In terms of his resume, he has always handed in perfect answers in every position he has held.
If one were to trace his ancestry, this person belongs to the lineage of Chao Yi Da Fu Chen Fu.
In Qi, nine advisors and nine commanders of soldiers were the highest representatives of power under the emperor. No matter who they were, they held immense influence.
Zhang Weiyù's background, abilities, and cultivation are all impeccable. Such a person naturally deserves the Xuan Sheng rank without any discrepancy.
It was his strong insistence on a thorough investigation of Jiang Wang that even Chong Xuan couldn't stop.
He had no dealings with Jiang Wang. He hadn't even interacted much with Chong Xuansheng, who was only recently gaining recognition in the past two years. To say there was conflict would be inaccurate; it was more like they simply didn't know each other. It wasn't like the longstanding feud between the Bao family and the Chong Xuan family.

Though Chao Yiguo Chen Fu and Dingyuan Hou Chong Xuan Chu Liangzheng had some differences in opinion, they did not reach the level of political enemies.
Therefore, there is no basis for personal grievances.
But if it's said to be entirely for justice, I'm not so sure.
What does "this Zhang Weiyu" mean

...Zhong Xuan was often used in private teahouses, where Li Longchuan, with jade hairpins holding back his forehead, frowned and asked.

Fourteen stood silent aside, while Chong Xuan smiled cheerfully and poured tea for them without saying a word.
Sitting at the south end, Yan Fu spoke in a gentle voice: "Before this incident, we all knew that His Majesty intended to grant Jiang Wang a real position. Which position do you think would be most suitable for Jiang Wang within Qi"
Li Longchuan was exceptionally intelligent and remarkably capable. He had a keen understanding of military affairs and possessed a sharp political mind. However, the vast territory of the Qi state, with its strategic importance controlling the overseas regions and the gate to the myriad demons' realm, also required numerous garrisons... There were simply too many positions to consider, and finding the most suitable one for Jiang Wang was indeed a difficult task.
Yan Fu was not like Chong Xuan, who loved to play coy. Seeing Li Longchuan hesitate for a moment, he directly said, “Of course it’s the Northern Palace Commander.”
Li Longchuan's eyes lit up: "Yes!"
The post of Beiya Dutou, in terms of rank, was only the fourth rank. But its power and influence were significant even in Linzi, second only to the Political Affairs Hall and Military Affairs Hall.
While Jiang Wang only possessed the cultivation of an Inner Palace martial artist, this status as the world's number one Inner Palace carried significant weight. Furthermore, he was already a fourth-rank Qing Pai and a third-rank Jin Gua warrior, serving as the Northern Barracks General, truly worthy of his position!
Although Qi state is large, to find a position better and more suitable for Jiang Wang's level than this one would be truly difficult!
Moreover, this position must be held by someone who is personally trusted by the emperor.
If Jiang Wang were able to take this position, these rumors and public opinion would no longer be a burden. Afterward, entering the military affairs hall and the political affairs hall would also be an open path.
Another point is that the selection of each successive Northern Censor-in-Chief was a joint nomination by the incumbent Northern Censor-in-Chief and the Ministry of Officials, with the Emperor personally making the final choice. The opinion of the incumbent Northern Censor-in-Chief was extremely important.
And who is the current Northern Palace Captain
Zheng Shi!
Zheng Shi had already served as the Northern Depot Commander for many years, and the emperor still trusted him. Of course, he could continue to suppress cultivation and maintain this power, but what was the best choice
Before one ascends to the Divine Realm, their extraordinary powers will naturally weaken with age. Zheng Shi wanted to leave Beiya before his power began to decline and achieve godhood. Otherwise, he would be delaying his own destiny.

Moreover, Zheng Shi's son, Zheng Shangming, is currently also developing within the Qingpai system.
But of course, he couldn't directly pass on the post of Northern Palace Cavalry Captain to Zheng Shangming. It would be difficult for him to get to the Political Affairs Hall. And Jiang Wang, who was friendly with Zheng Shangming, was an excellent choice!
>
With Jiang Wang's talent, even the authority of a Northern Censor would not be enough to suppress his strength.
That is to say, even if he became the commander of the Northern Barracks, he wouldn't hold the position for long.
Zheng Shi is now trying to sell Jiang Wang a good deal. When Jiang Wang becomes powerful and successful, when it's time for him to step down, wouldn't it be the perfect outcome if Zheng Shangming could take over
Yan Fu pointed out the position of the Northern Palace Captain, and Li Longchuan instantly understood. He couldn't help but ask Chong Xuan Sheng: "Does Zheng Duwei intend to resign Does Jiang Wang also have his eyes on this position"
>
The position of a Northern Bureau Prefect is truly weighty!
Even as the eldest son of the prominent Li family of Shimen, he could not be ignored.
"If Zheng Duwei has no interest, then we talking about this would be needlessly offending him, turning a friend into an enemy, wouldn't it" Chong Xuansheng laughed. "For Zheng Duwei, being able to break free now and take another step forward would also be an excellent choice. He has intentionally or unintentionally done some things to pave the way for Jiang Wang. It's just that Jiang Wang, this simpleton, can't see it himself. I haven't had time to tell him either."
“Ah,” Li Longchuan sighed, “It’s a pity.”

Jiang Wang's sudden disappearance meant he missed out on the crucial position of Northern Bureau Prefect. It is a pity.
He was granted the rank of Jingu Warrior, a third-rank position, which could be considered entry into Qi's high levels. But he was mostly known rather than having real power, his influence was actually questionable. If he were to be appointed as the Commandant of Beiyamen, that would be a completely different story. It wouldn't even be an exaggeration to say that it would put him at the center of Qi's power!
This is a stairway to heaven!
With the emperor's favor, Zheng Shi's support, and the deep respect of the people, everything was in place after the Tai Temple offering. Yet Jiang Wang, at this very moment, did such a thing.

Of course it's a pity.

"You feel pity, while others feel joy. That's where the problem lies."

Speaking of this, Li Longchuan could naturally understand why Zhang Weiyue jumped out.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Zhang Weiyu, a Minister of Civil Affairs, holds the rank of fourth-grade official. He possesses peak cultivation at the outer courtyard and boasts an impressive resume with a profound background... He is also extremely suitable for the position of Northern Camp Commander!

But there is only one spot. Jiang Wang can't bear it any longer, who can come up
Although the two parties might not have had any conflicts initially, things can quickly turn sour, even leading to a life-or-death feud, just like one carrot and one pit.
Concerning a position as important as the Northern Camp Commandant, even someone behind Zhang Weiyue like Chen Fu, the Imperial Advisor, wouldn't take it lightly.
No wonder Chong Xuan, using the dignity of a genius as an excuse, tried every means to obstruct it but still couldn't stop the investigation into Qingyang Town.
Facing the stairway to heaven, Zhang Weiyu would certainly have to use all his skills.
Li Longchuan thought for a moment, but he couldn't help himself and spoke up: "Brother Chongxuan, they insist on investigating Qingyang Town, and you are so vehemently opposed to it. Could there really be something wrong with Qingyang Town"
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Chong Xuan looked at him, a half-smile on his lips. "Jiang Wang is currently not in the country. His image is up for grabs; anyone can paint a picture of him. What do you think, Brother Li"
Zhong Xuan Sheng and Li Longchuan are both good friends of Jiang Wang. They are true friends who are willing to stand up for Jiang Wang when he is in trouble.
But there are also differences between them.
Being from military families and top-tier clans, both heirs to the marquisate. Their feelings for the country and their loyalty to the emperor are not the same.
To repay the life-saving grace, Jiang Wang helped Yin Guan enter Linzi. Chong Xuan Sheng found out and even helped to smooth things over, giving Chong Xuan Zun another trouble along the way.
If Li Longchuan had known about this at the time, he would have definitely stopped Jiang Wang.
In this world, everyone has their own thoughts, their own lives, and their own pursuits.
Even the best of friends can't always agree.
>
It is true that seeking common ground while embracing differences is the right way to go, but if there are irreconcilable differences, even the best of friends may sometimes have to part ways.
Zheng Xuan didn't answer Li Longchuan's question, but asked him if he was willing to believe Jiang Wang wholeheartedly.
...while Li Longchuan had his own principles. He was willing to believe Jiang Wang, and had proven it many times before... but he wouldn't be completely open book.
The atmosphere in the tea room suddenly became solemn after 重玄 posed his question.
“Speaking of which…” Yan Fu spoke up at this time, “Where is Jiang Wang now”
Zhong Xuan Sheng retracted his gaze and said with a chuckle, "I told him not to come back yet, to travel the mountains and rivers!"
"It seems that Brother Chongxuan already has everything under control, so I can rest assured."
Yan Fu smiled and got up, saying, "Miss Wen is still waiting for me to go boating with her, so I'll take my leave first."
He looked at Li Longchuan: "Where is Brother Li"
Li Longchuan nodded slightly and also got up and said, "Since there is nothing else, I should go back. My elder sister has returned recently and is very demanding."
Yan Fu was already walking outside, but turned back to smile at Chong Xuan Sheng and said: "Tell Jiang Qingyang to have fun and spend freely. Come find me for reimbursement when you get back!"
