    "The reason why Zhao Ran was finally promoted to a Taoist priest who received an ultimatum was because two letters played a key role.  One is a letter from the Great Master Chu Yangcheng of the Jade Emperor Pavilion. There are only two words in the letter that reprimand Zhao Ran - "Nonsense"; the other is from the Great Master Lin Zhijiao of the Huayun Pavilion. The letter is written by Xiang Wuji.  The old abbot of the hospital asked for Zhao Ran's calligraphy frame.  These two inexplicable letters, which have nothing to do with the ultimatum and job transfer, have become the basis for Zhao Ran to stand out and change his destiny. No one can believe it when told, but the facts are so bizarre.

    Let¡¯s not mention the first letter for the time being. It was the result of Zhao Ran going out of his way to find someone to knock on the gongs and drums to apply for ¡°scold¡±. When it came to the second letter, Zhao Ran had to feel ashamed and thank Yu Mo for his help.  .

    Therefore, when Song Xunzhao proposed that Zhao Ran would change the situation on his behalf and win over a certain immortal chief in the palace to come forward to speak out, it was really difficult for Zhao Ran.  Song Xunzhao didn't know or understand how much respect Zhao Ran had in the Pavilion, but Zhao Ran knew his own affairs. Master Chu Yangcheng who was in Jade Emperor Pavilion didn't want to see him at all, and Hua Yun  Yu Mo from the hotel is quite caring about me, but things can happen once or twice. I have already helped Yu Mo to help twice. Do you have the nerve to do it again?

    Zhao Ran wrote a letter to Yumo, telling the story of Wujiyuan Jia Zhike's death in Baima Mountain, and what the new Zhike Yu Zhiyuan saw and heard when he witnessed the war in Baima Mountain, focusing on the tragic dangers involved, and persuaded Yu.  Mo must not easily participate in the war. He must cherish himself. The words of concern were all over the paper, making Zhao Ran himself blush.  The letter also lightly mentioned that Zhong Tenghong was leaving the prison and that the new prison might be Song Zhiyuan. There was no hint of intercession or concern in the words.

    I have written the letter. As for whether others will take care of it or not, then it is up to God. This is what Zhao Ran thinks. You can say that Zhao Ran is hiding his ears and stealing the bell, or that he is playing an ostrich strategy. In short, this is the best thing he can think of at the moment.  Best solution.

    After writing the letter, Zhao Ran went to find Yu Zhiyuan to send a letter. Speaking of which, Zhao Ran had not written to Yumo for a long time because this Zhike had not returned in March.  He received two letters from Yu Mo. The problem was that he had no way to send them.

    After coming out of the living room, Zhao Ran went straight to Master Liu Jing's house.  If Jiang Gaogong wants to come forward and recommend him to serve as the doorman in the living room, Liu Jingzhu cannot overcome this hurdle.  Although he had a good reputation with Jiang Gaogong and could speak fluently because of his excellent academic performance, he still fell short of Liu Jingzhu.  Asking questions beyond the level is a taboo in the workplace. Some people can't get things done, but they are very good at ruining you. Zhao Ran has seen too much before traveling and will never make such a mistake.

    Liu Jingzhu is only a steward Taoist at the "Five Lords and Eighteen Heads" level, and is not qualified to live in the backyard. His residence is still in the dormitory compound, but he only occupies a row of three wing rooms.  To put it bluntly, the wing rooms shared by Zhao Ran and Zhu Meng together are Liu Jingzhu's current living conditions.  If Zhao Ran moves the front door of the living room in the future, he will also receive such treatment.

    When Zhao Ran rushed to the door of Liu Jingzhu's house, Liu Jingzhu happened to come back from outside. Zhao Ran followed Liu Jingzhu into the room happily, took the robe he took off, and diligently boiled water and poured tea for Liu Jingzhu.  He came here not once or twice, he was familiar with the roads, and he didn't know anything about it.  Liu Jingzhu also liked Zhao Ran's discernment and enjoyed Zhao Ran's flattery very happily.

    After Zhao Ran finished his work, Liu Jingzhu took a sip of the tea soup, leaned back on the chair, and said leisurely: "During the morning homework, I saw that you were distracted and seemed to have something on your mind. Sure enough After all, what happened?  Why?"

    Zhao Ran smiled and said: "Since the beginning of winter last year, I have been under the care of many sutra masters. Junior brother, I have gone down the mountain to preside over many rituals. Not only have I consolidated my knowledge, expanded my experience, but also gained a lot of knowledge. When drinking water, remember the source, junior brother, I often chant  As for the sutra master, if it weren¡¯t for the sutra master¡¯s love, how could I, my junior brother, have made the progress I have today¡­¡±

    Liu Jingzhu waved his hand and said: "Junior brother Zhao is too polite. It's all because of senior brother Gao Gong's care. What I have here is nothing more than adult beauty. If you want to thank me, just thank senior brother Gao Gong. There is no need to make a special trip to me to say"

    Zhao Ran was angry: "Does the sutra master look down on me, junior brother? Junior brother, I am not an ungrateful person! I understand Jiang Gaogong's care and concern in my heart, but if there is no sutra master, let alone go down the mountain to preside over rituals, I just want to be in the sutra hall  Scholarship is absolutely impossible!¡±

    Liu Jingzhu also played a certain role in Zhao Ran being able to become a sutra-reciting Taoist boy who received the ultimatum. It was Liu Jingzhu's introduction that allowed Zhao Ran to climb into the ranks of Jiang Gaogong.  Therefore, although Zhao Ran looked angry on his face, Liu Jingzhu took advantage of him, because he smiled and said: "Junior brother, there is no need to worry about trivial matters."

    Zhao Ran took out a hundred taels of silver notes from his arms, forced it into Master Liu Jing's hand, and said solemnly: "This is a book of gifts for various rituals. Junior brother, I am alone, and I have all the senior brothers to take care of me, so it doesn't cost much.  After thinking about it, money always??Use it for what it is worth I heard that the lay mother of the sutra master has been ill recently and has a lot of uses for money. I hope the sutra master will not be polite to me, my junior brother. I just want to show my filial piety to my junior brother.  "

    Liu Jingzhu has a manor in the north of Guyang County, where he supports his old mother, who is almost sixty years old.  It is said that Liu's mother suffered from a chronic leg disease. Liu Jingzhu, who regarded himself as a filial son, spent all his money to treat the old mother's illness and care for her. This matter was known to everyone in Wuji Yuan.  Zhao Ran has never been to Liu's Manor, nor has he met Liu's mother. He doesn't know what kind of leg disease that Liu's mother has, but for a subordinate like Zhao Ran who wants to give money, it is an excellent reason.  No need to waste time thinking about excuses.

    Liu Jingzhu sadly lamented his old mother's illness, but refused Zhao Ran's banknote. This made Zhao Ran a little overwhelmed, and he put the banknote away in embarrassment, with all kinds of thoughts in his mind, and secretly thought  Could it be that this senior brother doesn't intend to help?

    "But Liu Jingzhu's face was still extremely gentle, and he didn't show anything strange. Zhao Ran was puzzled for a while.  After chatting for a while, Liu Jingzhu changed the topic and talked about Yu Zhiyuan taking over as the deacon of the living room.  Liu Jingzhu and Yu Zhiyuan have a good relationship, which is the same as Zhao Ran. Even if they have a common topic, they both congratulate Yu Zhiyuan. Liu Jingzhu then asks: "Junior Brother Yu Well, Yu Zhike once and  I mentioned that he has a lack of talent over there and wants you to fill it, I don¡¯t know, junior brother, what do you think?"

    Do you do business without collecting money?  Is this Liu Jingzhu so righteous?  In any case, although Zhao Ran couldn't guess what the other party was thinking, he finally breathed a sigh of relief and said humbly: "Of course I am willing, but I'm afraid, junior brother, that I am not talented enough to take on such an important responsibility."

    Liu Jingzhu leaned back on his chair and chuckled: "I'm too humble! I have never gotten lower than a first-class score in the monthly and annual exams. This kind of coursework is all about "little talent and shallow learning". I don't know who in the scripture hall is considered outstanding? With such talent, how can I not be worthy of it?  Want to start a career? Don¡¯t worry, I¡¯ll discuss this matter with Jiang Gaogong and I¡¯ll definitely recommend you!¡±

    Zhao Ran quickly thanked Liu Jingzhu respectfully and flattered Liu Jingzhu without leaving a trace, praising his filial piety.  Just as he was about to say goodbye and leave, he heard Liu Jingzhu leaning forward and whispering: "I heard that Junior Brother Zhao has a lot of contacts with the immortal elders in the pavilion, but I don't know if you can contact me on behalf of Senior Brother.  ?¡±

    Zhao Ran was stunned: "Is there something wrong, Master?"

    "Well that let's be honest, senior brother, I have been a sutra master for nine years. It's not that I am too ambitious and greedy for a high position, but it is because my mother is eager for her son to make progress and hopes that I will make further progress. Senior brother, I can't bear to be disappointed.  After understanding my mother's wishes, I am now planning to transfer to Gao Gong's position. Jiang Gao Gong is also committed to this matter, but at the level of deacon, it will be easier to handle if the Xizhenwu Palace nods to take care of it. If the junior brother can do it for him  Turn around, please ask one of the immortals in the pavilion to come forward and say hello to the West Zhenwu Palace Junior brother, don't worry, senior brother and I should be responsible for the management of this"

    Looking at Liu Jingzhu¡¯s expectant expression, Zhao Ran was tangled up in his heart, but he had no choice but to bite the bullet and agree: "Senior brother, don¡¯t worry, junior brother, I will try my best to intercede"

    Liu Jingzhu was overjoyed: "That's it, thank you so much, junior brother!"

    Zhao Ran¡¯s mouth was filled with bitterness: ¡°Senior brother, you¡¯re welcome¡­¡±

    Thanks to yangzhigang and brother billlee for the reward.
