Chapter 003 Chapter 3
Nothing else matters, he still got the most important thing.
Cheng Yishu hugged the cat and rubbed it. He was really grateful to his little system, otherwise he didn’t know how he would survive in the future.
The main thing is that although there is paper here, paper is a relatively precious thing, so people use toilet chips when going to the toilet...
What are toilet sticks? Emmm, such as bamboo sticks, wooden sticks and so on.
And the paper here is hard, it takes courage to use it...
So, when Cheng Yishu saw toilet paper in the novice gift pack, he almost knelt down to thank God.
In addition to toilet paper, there is also a set of kitchen seasoning packages here. Don’t tell him that it’s in its original state, because he is not lucky enough to eat it in its original state and cannot get used to it.
What surprised him most was that he developed a solar charging source, a high-power one that could store a lot of electricity.
With this thing, you don't have to worry about electricity later.
In addition to this, there is also a stun baton for self-defense, the kind that can be telescopically controlled.
These things can be said to be what Cheng Yishu desires most now.
It's a pity that he didn't fire his gun. If he had a gun, he would be invincible here.
But... the electric baton is okay, just one blow...
After sorting out these things, Cheng Yishu looked outside. Next, he would wait until tomorrow. He would be Xia Zhang's imperial teacher for a few years and make some money. When the opportunity came, he would run away immediately to see the beautiful mountains and rivers outside and try the feeling of riding a horse in the world.
The Jianghu and the imperial court here are temporarily keeping to themselves, mainly because Xia Zhang has no time to deal with them, and the Jianghu people here have no intention of breaking the law with force. After approaching the imperial city, they behave themselves and have no intention of offending the majesty of the royal family, otherwise...
It’s hard to say whether Xia Zhang will go on a killing spree.
After planning his life here, Cheng Yishu closed his eyes quietly. He wanted to conserve his energy and strive to make something big tomorrow.
Maomao lay quietly beside Cheng Yishu, and the first day of one man ruling the country ended quietly.
After opening his eyes, Cheng Yishu cleaned himself up briefly. Looking at the willow branch in his hand, his expression began to become painful. He needed a toothbrush and toothpaste.
After the cleaning was completed, Cheng Yishu looked at the cat lying quietly beside him with dead eyes and said, "Tell me...how do the protagonists in those time-travel novels accept their fate so quietly?"
The system cat scratched its head with its hind legs, stood up, tilted its head and said, "The system has a self-purification function, so I don't know either."
Cheng Yishu snorted and laughed as he splashed the water under the tree. He fixed his hair and said, "Anyway, I can't do it. If it wasn't you, Tongzi, I would have chosen to die directly."
Even though there is still hope for survival, his mentality is still very explosive, and he feels like... he wants to die with this world.
The sound of the bell at the door rang, and Cheng Yishu straightened his purple Taoist robe, which was prepared for him by the system cat. The eight trigrams pattern on the sleeves shone brightly in the sunlight, and the overly bright color was overshadowed by Cheng Yishu's fairy-like face.
He glanced at the system cat, and the system cat jumped directly onto the carriage. Last night, he discussed with the system about buying fireworks on credit. How should I put it? He wanted to give himself a grand appearance so that he could gain people's trust when he cheated... no, when he did good deeds in the future.
The carriage slowly drove into the palace. The court system here was similar to that of the Ming Dynasty, with the Cabinet, Six Ministries, Censorate, Dali Temple, Honglu Temple, Taichang Temple, and Taifu Temple, etc.
Outside there are the Feiyu Guards and the Longshe Army.
These two are the emperor's exclusive guards, and only the emperor can command them.
The Feiyu Guard was more like the Jinyi Guard, while the Longshe Army was responsible for the safety of the emperor and the palace.
As for secret guards, they do exist, but they usually don't appear in public.
Cheng Yishu was not very interested in these. He didn't care much about the court system and official positions, nor was he very familiar with them. He just had a general understanding of them.
Anyway, as the national teacher, these people have no control over him.
Even if it was possible, he wasn't going to bother with it. After all, he wasn't doing it voluntarily, and his main purpose was to make some money and earn some points.
If he can do it, he can do it. If he can't do it, he can leave. Should he swallow his anger? Not possible.
With this attitude, Cheng Yishu stepped into the Qinzheng Hall.
Looking up, he met eyes with Xia Zhang, who was sitting at the top wearing the imperial robes. Cheng Yishu looked at both sides. Wow, everyone was kneeling in an orderly manner. Yesterday's scene was repeated.
But what does this have to do with him? He is just a weak, pitiful, helpless, and un-kneeling imperial teacher.
He found a quiet corner. He had decided to let himself go, so forget about all the rules.
Xia Zhang didn't say anything. He just smiled and turned sideways and said something to the young eunuch beside him.
The young eunuch looked over at him, nodded, bent over and came over from the side.
Holding a stool in hand...
Cheng Yishu's expression became satisfied, while the officials who were still kneeling became nervous. They lowered their heads and looked at their colleagues around them.
There was a question in their eyes. Who had offended him? Why were they kneeling for so long and not allowed to get up? Who wanted to be dead? How much did the funeral cost?
Looking at Cheng Yishu sitting quietly in the corner, a hint of satisfaction flashed in Xia Zhang's eyes, his national teacher.
Glancing at the people next to him, Xia Zhang moved his fingers. The eunuch understood and stepped forward to wake up the people below.
As the people below stood up, Cheng Yishu could see their appearance clearly. I have to say, they all looked really good.
Even the one with white beard in front has an extraordinary bearing and an upright posture.
Xia Zhang definitely looks at people's appearance! This is the conclusion Cheng Yishu came to.
Before Cheng Yishu could look at them one by one, he heard the chief eunuch announce the establishment of the post of national teacher, who only obeyed the emperor and had an extraordinary status.
Cheng Yishu glanced at Xia Zhang, okay, it’s his turn.
Before the ministers below could react, Cheng Yishu came out from behind. He stood there, looked at Xia Zhang and said, "I accept your order."
Xia Zhang sat up straight with a smile on his face. He waved at Cheng Yishu and said, "Master, come and sit next to me."
Cheng Yishu glanced at the chair next to Xia Zhang and walked over without any hesitation. If nothing else, it looked comfortable.
This immediately caused an uproar among the ministers below. Isn’t it... the throne above is the emperor, and except for the emperor, the people below are not allowed to be human beings, and there is also... the imperial preceptor???
There was no such thing as a national teacher in the previous two dynasties...
Xia Zhang's move caught them off guard, and the position of imperial teacher... is very mysterious.
The left prime minister lowered his eyes and made a slight gesture. A man dressed as an official stood up from behind him, holding a court tablet and said, "Your Majesty, the position of the imperial teacher was established without any discussion. Isn't this too hasty?"
Xia Zhang glanced at him and said, "Are you dissatisfied with my decision?"
The little official below said with a righteous look on his face: "I dare not, I just think that the matter of the state teacher should be handled with caution, Your Majesty. This person really doesn't look like a person who has attained the Tao!"
Cheng Yishu was speechless. He looked at the censor, who was almost saying that he had deceived Xia Zhang with his looks.
He turned his head slightly to look at the young eunuch next to him. The young eunuch looked at the censor below and moved his mouth to tell Cheng Yishu the man's name and official position.
A pink light flashed in Cheng Yishu's eyes, and the information of the young censor appeared.
【Let me see your situation...】
The sudden sound startled the people below. Xia Zhang, who had experienced this yesterday, accepted it well and watched the show with his chin propped up.
Cheng Yishu narrowed his eyes and found the information of this censor.
[Xia Yanqing, the newly promoted censor of the Censorate, a disciple of the Left Prime Minister, is currently discussing marriage with his teacher's daughter...]
Xia Zhang looked expectantly at Cheng Yishu. This tone of voice... there must be something going on inside. It's going to be a good show. It's really interesting~
Xia Yanqing's hands began to tremble. No one knew that he was a member of the left prime minister's staff. After all, most of the people in the Censorate were independent officials...
