   Chapter 282 Sleeping Beauty 【Seeking Subscription Monthly Pass】

  The family is in Qinghua Lane in the east of the city, surnamed Zhao, and is a small family in Guangping County.

   is similar to Chu Chen's family.

  The Zhao family is also a scholar family, farming and reading heirlooms.

   In the early years, there was a jinshi from the Zhao family who was a fourth-rank official.

   Without mentioning the jinshi, the younger generation of the Zhao family did not even get into the exam, far inferior to the Chen family.

  The rest of the Chen family do not say that Chen's father, Chen Jiaxian, has made a name for himself. If he wants, he can wait for an official position.

  The Zhao family did not develop well in the Confucian school, so he turned his head and devoted himself to the Taoist school, cultivating the younger generation of the family to cultivate Taoism.

   Left-hand Confucianism door, right-hand Taoist door.

   Betting on both ends, shoulder-to-shoulder development, thriving.

  The Zhao family has ancestors Fuze, and they have connections and family traditions in the Confucian school. They have not been able to get ahead. They rashly join the Taoism.

  Insufficient capital and betting on both sides, dispersing resources, the result is that neither side has much improvement, and development is frustrated everywhere.

   Compared with Confucianism, Taoism has higher requirements for talent.

   After all, Confucianism can rely on imperial examinations to condense Confucianism and Taoism, and lay the foundation for practice step by step, while Taoism looks at innate aptitude.

  The Zhao family did not give birth to a monastic genius.

   Some disciples do have the talent for Taoism, but they are not outstanding. They are only ordinary disciples of Taoism.

   Not to mention feeding back the Zhao family, each and everyone is a little beast cub waiting to be fed, and they have asked their family for resources for cultivation.

   This made the Zhao family even worse.

   Over the past few decades, the Zhao family has gradually declined and has become an unremarkable small family in Guangping County.

  The family property is only a house in Qinghua Lane in the east of Guangping County, and the ancestral house and farmland of Zhaojiazhuang in the east suburb of the county.

   This time, the Zhao family inadvertently offended the monks of the Demon League. Zhao family village on the outskirts of the city did not dare to stay, and fled back to Guangping County for refuge.

After    hid in Guangping County City, the demons of the Demon League did not dare to engage in storms and rain in the County City, and the Zhao family was temporarily safe.

   However, here comes the problem.

   It is no problem to hide in the city for a day or two, and it is not a problem to hide in the city for ten days and a half month, but there is no way to hide in the city for a lifetime.

  The Zhao family in Zhaojiazhuang is from the same family as the Zhao family in Guangping. They are relatives who have broken bones and connected tendons.

The family property of Zhaojiazhuang in the eastern suburb of    is the foundation and lifeblood of the Zhao family in Guangping.

  There are not only a large number of ordinary fields in the village, but also three spiritual fields.

   These three spiritual fields are the foundation of the Zhao family, and it is impossible to give up.

  So, the Zhao family who fled back to the county town immediately reported to the Ghosts and Spirits Division, asking the Ghosts and Gods Division to take action to sweep away the evil spirits, cut out the claws, and return the Zhao family peace.

  The request of the Zhao family is reasonable and reasonable, and this is indeed the responsibility of the county ghosts and gods.

  Chu Chen, Xuan Lingzi, and Wang Ping took over the errands. After carefully checking the situation of the Zhao family, they left the Department of Ghosts and Gods of the County and came to the Zhao residence in Qinghua Lane in the east of the city.

   As soon as he heard that it was from the Department of Ghosts and Gods, and all of a sudden the five prefectural counselors came, the Zhao family was overwhelmed and politely welcomed the five people in.

   Zhao Xing, the head of the Zhao family, personally received the five people.

  The two sides greeted each other and reported their families to each other.

   When faced with Xuan Lingzi, Wang Ping, Qian Sangua, and Yuantong, the Zhao family head was normal, and he was full of enthusiasm with three points to please.

   However, when Chu Chen reported his name, a strange look flashed on the face of Zhao Patriarch, and he glanced at Chu Chen many times.

  He has the power of mind and eyes, and he sees six ways and observes into the smallest detail. The abnormality of the Zhao family leader naturally falls under his nose.

   So, he asked tentatively.

   "Patriarch Zhao, do you know me?"

   Zhao Family Patriarch heard the words, looked up and down Chu Chen, the more he looked, the more he felt like, and he didn't answer the question:

   "Master, your lay family is the Guangping Chen family?"

  Chu Chen was not surprised, nodding:

"good."

   "So you are the eldest son of the first brother? Chen Jia Erlang?"

   Zhao family master was overjoyed:

   "Erlang, I am your uncle of the Zhao family. I have a good relationship with your father. I hugged you when you were young!"

  Chu Chen heard the words, but he had no doubts.

   They are both in the city of Guangping County and from the same scholarly family, so it is not surprising that the other party has friendship with the Chen family.

   For the first 20 years, he was in a daze and didn't know anyone, so it's not surprising that others recognized him.

  Guangping County said it was not a big deal, and it was normal for news of his enlightenment to circulate in certain circles in the city.

  Chu Chen really had no impression of this Zhao Patriarch in his mind, but he did not lose his courtesy.

   "The younger generation has seen Uncle Zhao!"

"Hey~ Erlang, you are really promising. I heard that you went home some time ago, you have entered the Taoist door, and you are a messenger in the Department of Ghosts and Gods. I never imagined that in a blink of an eye, you would be promoted to the counselor of the county. It's amazing. It's amazing."

  The Zhao family leader looked quite excited.

   He is only a scholar and famous, and his Taoist cultivation is barely eighth-rank, but his knowledge is not shallow, and he is very clear about what "counselor in charge of the county" means.

   The Erlang of the Chen family in front of him, if there is no accident, it will not take long for a county to be in charge of the county's ghosts and gods, and the seven-rank real power immortal officials, who jointly govern a county with the county magistrate, have great authority.

  Some people read the history books and always feel that the seventh-rank official is very small, and the impression of the seventh-rank sesame official is deeply ingrained.

   In fact, this impression is absurd.

  The narrative in the history book is from the perspective of the world, looking down from top to bottom, and the seventh-rank officials are naturally insignificant.

   For the common people, the seventh-rank officials, especially the parent officials of the ruling party, are definitely high-ranking people who are in charge of life and death!

   "Erlang, our two are family friends. This time, you have to help Uncle Zhao and be the master of my Zhao family!"

   Zhao family master knew the truth of "acquaintances are easy to handle", so he went directly to Chu Chen.

  Xuan Lingzi and Wang Pingping saw that Chu Chen had friendship with the Zhao family, and they stopped talking. The whole scene was handed over to Chu Chen, with a posture that only Chu Chen would follow.

   In fact, among the five, only Chu Chen can speak.

  Xuan Lingzi didn't look down on Wang Ping and the others, and Wang Ping and the others didn't agree with Xuan Lingzi, so Chu Chen's position was more delicate. When he spoke, everyone could be in a good mood.

  Chu Chen did not refuse, and began to communicate with the Zhao family.

   "Uncle Zhao, how did your family offend the demons of the Demon League? Tell me in detail, our Department of Ghosts and Gods will definitely not sit back and watch the demons of the Demon League run rampant."

   "Well, with what you said, Erlang, I can rest assured Uncle Zhao."

   Zhao Patriarch Xu Shi thought of Chu Chen's confusion for the past 20 years, so he tried to ask:

   "Erlang, do you remember Qingge girl?"

  Chu Chen was stunned for a moment. Zhao Xing, the head of the Zhao family, was not impressed, but he had a deep memory of this Qingge.

   It's not because he has a good relationship with this Miss Zhao family, how familiar he is. He has never met the other party, but the other party's name is like thunder.

   When I was in a daze, I always heard her in my ears.

   Speaking of which, he and Zhao Qingge can be described as "crying dragons and phoenixes".

   He was in a daze, stupefied all day long.

   Zhao Qingge has the power of eight successes.

  This Zhao family lady is extremely lethargic. She spends most of the day in her sleep, and only a few hours are no different from ordinary people.

   Sometimes she slept for several days, and because she was born quite beautiful, she was called "Sleeping Beauty", and she was "equally famous" with his Chen Jiaerlang.

  In the beginning, Chu Chen often heard the whispers of the Chen family's servants, and he remembered it deeply.

   "Uncle Zhao, what happened to Sister Qingge?"

  Chu Chen learned that the other party was indeed a friend of Chen's family, and this "Uncle Zhao" was also called smoothly.

   Mentioning this matter, the head of the Zhao family had lingering fears and said:

"It's a long story. Qingge girl has been in better spirits a few days ago. She went out for an outing and happened to meet a monk with immortal style. She wants to accept Qingge as her apprentice. Uncle Zhao, who am I? At a glance, you can see that the other party has ulterior motives."

"My Qingge girl does have an outstanding talent for Taoism, but she is surrounded by sleeping bugs, and it is extremely difficult to become a Taoist. I guess the other party is plotting badly and wants to use my Qingge as a cauldron. There are many secret methods in the cultivation world, so I have one more. With my heart, I pretended to answer face to face, turned around and took my family back to the county town."

   "As expected, that person couldn't see Qingge, so he became angry, and he reported himself to his family, claiming that he was a monk of the Demon League, and asked me to hand over Qingge obediently, otherwise I would be rude to my Zhao family."
