Chapter 223 218. New City God, the Three Yangs of the Cabinet



Since he was too far away from the center of power and his current positions were very limited, Zhang San naturally had no idea about the decisions of the top leaders of Dajin.

There is no doubt that the team of soldiers from the Ministry of Industry was specially assigned to him by Xu Xiaoqi. Then what is the purpose of Gao Dan who followed behind?

The defense line of Dajin is already long, and with ghosts rampant nowadays, Zhang San doesn't believe that the dignified Commander of Qinglong would come to this small Taiping County to wander around for no reason.

But doubts are just doubts after all. When Gao Dan defeated the Gu Ge giant with great ease, or when he saw the clay sculpture placed by the other party in Zhang San's house, Zhang San's attitude towards Gao Dan took a 180-degree turn.

Ever since the fight with Baiyaki, why has Zhang San been so anxious to take action against the Wu family?

In addition to the necessary weakening of the power of local gentry and preventing the spread of spiritual pollution, more importantly, Zhang San needed an excuse to show his power to the demons and monsters outside the city.

The root cause of all of this was the accidental death of the City God of Taiping County.

However, before he could complete his plan of killing the chicken to scare the monkeys, Gao Dan's unexpected arrival fundamentally solved this problem for him.

Although Sun Shan was still brooding over his previous actions, when he looked at the City God statue in front of him, his originally angry expression turned into a silly one.

"May I ask, Commander-in-Chief, which senior is this person in front of me?"

For any ambitious person, no one wants others to only pay attention to their family background and ignore their own efforts.

Especially in ancient society, for a woman to have cultivated to this level, it is self-evident what kind of person Gao Dan is.

Similarly, when Gao Dan heard the other party call her "Commander" instead of "Princess", even though she didn't say much, judging from the curve of her mouth, she was obviously very pleased with this title.

"The former chief minister of the cabinet, Yang Gong Wenzhen!"

Boom! Compared to Sun Shan's supporting role, Gao Dan's answer was not long, but for Sun Shan, its power was like a thunderclap exploding in his mind. If it weren't for the righteousness, Sun Shan's loss of composure at this moment would probably be even more serious.

"It turned out to be Zuo Zhuguo."

Although Sun Shan knew that the situation in Zhenjiang Prefecture was serious, he did not expect that Wang Chao would actually transfer this old man over. But it was also good. With the old man in charge, it was foolproof and he, as the official, could relax a little.

Unlike modern etiquette, in ancient times, when addressing others, especially when addressing people of higher status than oneself or elders, people would often use honorifics to avoid taboos.

Just like Liu Bei once served as the governor of Yuzhou, so he could be called Liu Yuzhou.

As for the current City God, because he was born into the royal family, Gao Dan addressed him by his posthumous title, while Sun Shan, as a junior, addressed him by his Lordship.

But whether it is Wenzhen or Zuo Zhuguo, although they are called differently, the meanings they represent are surprisingly consistent.

That is, the person in front of us is definitely someone who will go down in history.

Having lived in Dajin for so long, and with the help of the Memory Palace in every detail, it was not a big obstacle for Zhang San to accept this method.

Just because he can do it doesn't mean others can do it too.

Looking at the people chatting happily with each other, Yaya, who was already in a bad mood because of Jiang's departure, couldn't help but pout her lips and held Zhang San's hand with force unconsciously.

[Dian Wei: Coax her, quickly! ]

With Zhang San's perception, how could he not notice his sister's condition? He had indeed neglected this little girl during this period because of the ghost plague. However, now that he has a new City God, he can take some time out to repair the brother-sister relationship.

"The old man in front of me was named Yang Shiqi. He was a veteran of three dynasties and also one of the original cabinet members. The safety of Taiping County in the future will depend entirely on the help of this old man.

But before Yaya enters the Dao, you can’t call her by her name.”

Different from the coldness he showed when clearing out the ghost plague, Zhang San always seemed to be infinitely gentle when facing Yaya. This special feeling was something that even his bedmate Gu Xuanyan had never experienced.

"Hmm~*^o^*"

Faced with such an honor, the sadness on Yaya's face disappeared, and even her voice became lively.

"Si Rui, this is...your sister?"

Just like her makeup, despite her extraordinary status, Gao Dan's speech and behavior seemed extremely simple. After all, they were all children of the underworld. Especially after seeing Zhang San's methods, she affectionately called him Si Rui.

She was indeed kind, but looking at Gu Xuanyan's extremely cold eyes, it was self-evident what he was going to experience tonight.

However, as the higher the rank, the more powerful one is. Even at the risk of a fire in the harem, Zhang San had to give an answer.

"It is my younger sister. I am sorry to have embarrassed you, sir."

Holding Yaya, who had a little baby fat, Gao Dan seemed to see his own shadow in her. Originally, Gao Dan was trying to maintain an adult appearance, but now he held Yaya's chubby face and laughed out loud.

"Haha, this little fellow is so pretty... How old is Yaya this year? Has she gone to school? Does she have a teacher?"

Because she had once been with Jiang Chaoxi, who was a noble mortal immortal, and because she was carrying a precious treasure, Yaya herself was not afraid of Gao Dan.

But facing the spirits on Gao Dan's body, except for Dian Wei, the other spirits on Yaya's body were all trembling at this time. In order to appease the other party's emotions, even Yaya became a little absent-minded.

The child is a little shy, which seems to be the only explanation at the moment. However, looking at the people present, if he is not afraid, then there must be something fishy going on.

"She is already seven years old. I will send her to school after school starts in the second half of the year. Now I will teach her how to practice."

With the popularization of compulsory education, the fallacy that a woman’s virtue lies in her lack of talent has long been thrown to the ends of the earth.

"Of course I know Si Rui's methods. They are moderate, peaceful, clear and agile. They are the most authentic Xuanmen methods. But from what I see, Yaya is more suitable for the path of controlling ghosts. I wonder if Si Rui is willing to give them up?"

Without much preparation, Gao Dan stated what he meant. However, before Zhang San could make a judgment, Yaya, who had been nestling obediently in Gao Dan's arms, suddenly jumped down.

"No, no matter what you say, Yaya only learns from her brother."

"Be good, Yaya. As long as you accept me as your master, I promise that no one in this world will dare to touch you."

"It's better not to. Your arms are too hard. It's not as comfortable as my sister-in-law holding me."

[Gao Dan: I ****]

【Gu Xuanyan: Well done! 】

"Brother, did Yaya say something wrong? Um, um... I'm sorry, sister, actually being hard is not bad, just like my brother.

No, no, no, you are stronger than my brother. My brother only has a hard abdomen, but you can’t even… wuwuwu…”

Zhang San: "Children's words are without restraint, children's words are without restraint~"

[Gao Dan: Haha, destroy it, quickly! ]

PS: Xiaokuihua Yaya Classroom has started.   The posthumous titles include not only civil officials, but also members of the royal family and aristocracy. Before Emperor Renzong of Song, "Wenzhen" was the highest level of posthumous title. After Emperor Renzong of Song and until the Ming Dynasty (Dajin), "Wenzhen" became the posthumous title second only to "Wenzheng".
