Vol 8 Chapter 246: inside and outside

Chen Xiwang's mood was very good because of the improvement of his realm, but he did not show it. He knew very well that in a place like the fairy palace, even a little emotional change might attract the attention of interested people, so he still He walked out of his room blankly and went to the yard where Dongwei was to work.
Dongwei has many things to manage, but Chen Xiwang is only one of them. He doesn’t have too many things to manage. He is still busy every day. The reason why he is so busy these days is because he is investigating The Crystal Skeleton business is so busy.
When Chen Xiwang arrived in Dongwei’s yard and was walking into his room, suddenly a blocked Chen Xiwang’s path. Chen Xiwang looked up and found that it was an of the same rank as him, but this seemed to be better than him. Older, now looking at Chen Xiwang with a smile.
As soon as Chen Xiwang saw the eunuch, he hurriedly clasped his fists and saluted: "See brother." This is Chen Xiwang's brother, named Ma Degong. He is Chen Xiwang's master, the of Xianting palm seal, chief of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and admiral of Dongwei Big disciple of Wei Xiaode.
Ma Degong looked at Chen Xiwang, still not smiling, and then he said to Chen Xiwang: "Brother, Master has called you to go for questioning, and let me go." Chen Xiwang didn't dare to speak any more and agreed. With a sound, he followed Ma Degong to the sky and flew straight to the fairy palace in the sky.
In the Celestial Palace in the sky, although only the Emperor’s family lived, there were a lot of court ladies and eunuchs serving there, and it was also a place for ministers to discuss matters. At the same time, it was also the residence of several eunuchs, those eunuchs , They are all the confidants of the immortal emperor, it can be said that the immortal emperor controls the operation of the immortal world through them.
The immortal emperor in the immortal world is very mysterious. He rarely goes to court, but the dynasty meeting will still be held as scheduled. The reason for this is because the two sides have the right to hold the dynasty meeting. If the emperor is not there , Then the two phases of the left and right can preside over the convening of the great dynasty meeting, and the ministries will report all their affairs. If they can handle it, the two phases of the left and right will deal with it on the spot. Let Xiandi handle it.
Although the Emperor Xiandi would not attend the Great Court Meeting, the two confidant eunuchs of the Emperor Xiandi would attend. One of the two confidant eunuchs was Liu Zhong, the eunuch Liu Zhong, and the other was the Wei Xiaode. Of these two eunuchs, one is in charge of the Xiandu Hussars. This Hussars is different. This Hussard was originally the best army in the hands of the Emperor. Everyone in the army was monks, and all They will ride monsters to fight, and their fighting power is extremely powerful.
But then the Hussar Guard slowly decomposed, and his combat effectiveness plummeted. Later, after the Immortal Emperor appointed Liu Zhong as the Hussar Guard Admiral, the Hussar Guard’s combat effectiveness rose sharply, and it was divided into Bright Guards and Dark Guards. Mingwei is an army of 15,000 people, and it is a monster cavalry, and the other one, but no one knows how many people there are. This one is similar to the Dongwei. They have The power to supervise a hundred officials is still different from Dongwei's supervision of the world, but it makes people here in the fairy world feel more afraid.
In addition to Huqiwei, the also controls the inner palace. Although there is only one word difference between the inner palace and the inner palace, the difference is huge. What is the inner palace? To put it bluntly, the inner palace is in charge of the royal industry, the chief butler of the royal family, in charge of the royal family's purse, and is to make money for the royal family.
The House of Internal Affairs is different. The House of Internal Affairs is actually in charge of some chores, mainly in charge of the eunuchs and maids in the palace, and some things in the fairy palace. Although they are not small in power, they are far worse than those of the Inner House. Up.
And Liu Zhong is an with a pen. He is in charge of the inner palace. He is the chief of the inner palace and the hussar admiral. So to be honest, his power and status are higher than that of Wei Xiaode.
The Emperor Xian received a lot of benefits from Liu Zhong’s control of Hussars, so he asked Wei Xiaode to form Dongwei. Dongwei was to supervise the world, and this power was also great. At the same time, Wei Xiaode was also the head of the internal affairs department. When the emperor did this, he was actually playing a balance. He could not let Liu Zhong's power be too great, so he lifted Wei Xiaode up and used it to check and balance Liu Zhong. At the same time, he used Liu Zhong and Wei Xiaode to check and balance the left and right sides to achieve balance. The purpose of this is why he has rarely gone to court for so many years, but he can still control the fairy world.
The office of the left and right sides is not in the fairy palace in the sky, but in the fairy palace on the ground. However, the offices of Liu Zhong and Wei Xiaode are in the fairy palace. From this point, it can be seen that, Who is the confidant of the emperor. Of course, this also has a lot to do with Liu Zhong and Wei Xiaode being eunuchs.
The reason why the immortal emperor wanted to reuse Liu Zhong and Wei Xiaode was because the power of the left and right sides of the central court was a bit too large. Sometimes the immortal decree of the immortal emperor was dared to be rejected by the left and right sides. The Hussar that he has been directly managing, the reason why the combat effectiveness has dropped so fast is that it is a ghost between the left and right sides. This discovery made the immortal emperor furious, but the left and right forces have formed, and he wants to deal with the left and right sides. Two-phase is not so easy, so he thought of another way, which is to start to reuse internal officials, that is, Liu Zhong and Wei Xiaode, so this has formed the current situation.
Chen Xiwang was not originally a disciple of Wei Xiaode. He was a disciple of an old in the palace. The old had been in the palace for a lifetime and did not do anything famous. In the end, he only got the position of the chief official of the imperial house, but he But he was considered Wei Xiaode's confidant. Later, when the old died, Wei Xiaode accepted Chen Xiwang as his disciple. Therefore, Chen Xiwang belonged to an apprentice with an art apprentice. He was not a disciple of Wei Xiaode since he was a child.
But Chen Xiwang is serious and has always been loyal to Wei Xiaode. Wei Xiaode has paid more and more attention to Chen Xiwang over the years. Otherwise, he won’t be allowed to become Dongwei’s head. You must know that people like Ma Degong, The disciple Wei Xiaode taught since childhood is now in charge of Dong Wei. It is conceivable how much Wei Xiaode fancy Chen Xiwang.
Of course, Chen Xiwang’s identity is still incomparable with Ma Degong. Although Ma Degong is also in charge of Dongwei, he has to wait by Wei Xiaode’s side every day. He also lives in the fairy palace, even everyone. It can be seen that Wei Xiaode is cultivating Ma Degong as his successor, while Chen Xiwang can't reach that level.
The two flew to the fairy palace, and entered the fairy palace directly from the side entrance of the fairy palace. After arriving in the fairy palace, they turned a few times and entered a small courtyard, which was not very large. But there were several rooms. The one in the middle was the largest. Both knew that it was Wei Xiaode's room. When they got outside the room, Ma Degong bowed to the room and said, "Master, Brother Chen is here. "
"Come in." A somewhat deep voice came. The voice was a bit deep, but it was very nice. Both of them responded. Then they entered the room. Once you entered the room, you would find that the room is not. Small, there is a big brocade couch in the innermost part. This brocade couch is very big and can sleep several people. In the middle of the brocade couch, there is a small table. The left and right sides of this small table can be used. Each sleeps one person. On each side of the brocade, there is a little standing on each side. The two little eunuchs stood there with their heads down, motionless, like two statues. On the brocade couch, there is an old sitting, saying he is old, not very old, he looks only 50 years old, his hair is meticulously combed, his clothes are so casual, he is sitting there , Looking at it with a book in his hand.
The two of them hurriedly saluted the old and said, "See Master." While talking, they saluted the old eunuch. The old turned his head and glanced at the two, then smiled slightly: "Get up."
The old looks very handsome. Although he is older, he looks very handsome when he is young. Now he looks very handsome, and with a gentle smile, sitting there, like a handsome scholar , I can't tell at all, it's the great in charge of a place like Dongwei.
Both of them responded, and then straightened up. Ma Degong naturally walked to the side of the brocade and said to the old eunuch: "Master." Wei Xiaode nodded and waved his hand. Ma Degong took a step back and stood. On the edge of the Jintao, looking at Chen Xiwang.
Wei Xiaode looked at Chen Xiwang, and then said: "Xiwang, the last time I asked you to go to Qingducheng to do errands, you did a good job." When he said this, he spoke with a gentle voice and a smile on his face. It seems to be an elder, speaking with a younger generation whom he admires very much.
But Chen Xiwang was not happy at all. No matter who Wei Xiaode talks to, he always talks like this, even if he wants to kill him, he talks to him like this, so he really doesn’t know, Wei Xiaode told him In the end, are they really complimenting him, or are they talking irony and blaming him.
Chen Xiwang hurriedly said: "Master, the disciples did not manage things in Qingdu City properly, and there was a big mistake, so I ask Master to punish him." He didn't know if Wei Xiaode was really complimenting him, anyway, he admitted his mistake first.
When Chen Xiwang said this, Wei Xiaode still smiled and said, "No, you are not to blame for that matter. No one thought that there would be such a thing in Qingdu City, and even more did not expect that this would be from the Shadow Clan. A conspiracy, you have done well, at least the things in the eight big family treasury, you have already returned to the national treasury, this is already very good."
Chen Xiwang hurriedly said, "Thank you for the compliment, Master, I really dare not be it." He heard it now that Wei Xiaode really didn't seem to blame him, so he said so.
Wei Xiaode looked at Chen Xiwang and said, "But I heard that after you came back, you have been asking your people to pursue other Black Crystal Skeletons with all your strength. He was not very concerned about the person who snatched the Black Crystal Skull. What does it mean?"
Chen Xiwang hurriedly said: "If you return to Master, the person who snatched the skeleton should not be from the Shadow Clan. Otherwise, there is no need for him to the skeleton from the Shadow Clan. So the disciple thinks that the skeleton will not fall temporarily. In the hands of the Shadow Clan people, but we have to find other skeletons. If the Shadow Clan people lose a skeleton, they will definitely grab other skeletons as soon as possible. If we can’t find other skeletons as soon as possible, maybe those skeletons will Was snatched away by the Shadow Clan people."
