Working Emperor of the Northern and Southern Dynasties

During the reign of Tuoba Gui, Taizu of the Northern Wei Dynasty, an official reported that Sikong Yuyue was suspected of trespassing because of his bright clothes and elegant demeanor. Tuoba Gui had Yu Yue imprisoned and executed.

Chen Chang listened and fell into deep thought: The relationship between monarchs and ministers in the Northern and Southern Dynasties was very sensitive to begin with, and the emperor sent spies to monitor it every day. It might have been an insignificant matter at first, but after the spies reported it to the monarch, the ministers had to worry about their own lives.

Those who are not prepared to rebel will have no choice but to rebel.

It seems that this is also an important reason for the rapid change of dynasties during the Southern and Northern Dynasties.

After finishing the history of the waiting officer, Jiang Yong felt a little thirsty, but not a single servant serving tea was in sight, so he could only smile awkwardly.

"Brother Chen, we have already figured out your details. You have a clean family background, meticulous observation, and thoughtful mind. You are the most suitable for our industry and you will definitely be able to thrive like a fish in water."

In fact, forcing Chen Chong to serve the candidate with a tough attitude was not a refusal, but Jiang Yong did not want to do this.

To employ people, you must first control them.

Those who have learned people should not be despised; to those who are learned, cultivate their respect.

If you want Chen Chang to serve him obediently, you must fully respect and rely on him.

"Brother Chen, don't worry. I have sent people to investigate the matter of the Liu family and his son bullying you. I will give you a satisfactory explanation after getting Liu Yaozu back."

Chen Chang discovered that Jiang Yong is also a very good person who thinks ahead in everything, giving both kindness and power, making it impossible for him to refuse.

If you think about it carefully, it's just that, these candidates are thinking about people every day, and they have already understood human nature thoroughly.

"I'm afraid I have to trouble you a little during this time. I have a very difficult case on my hands. It's not convenient to go into details here. I will explain it to you in detail when you come to my place tomorrow."

As he spoke, Jiang Yong took out a badge from his robe sleeve, handed it to Chen Chang with a smile and said, "Brother Chen, although you are of no rank and rank among the candidates, you still need something to prove your identity, so you can do things outside."

It’s more convenient.”

Chen Chang looked at the egret carved on the waist badge and couldn't help but be fascinated.

"Hey, you must have never seen such a badge. Emperor Taizu Tuobagui of the Northern Wei Dynasty 'adopted Shaohao' after the founding of the country. Shaohao was one of the Five Heavenly Emperors. His clan used the phoenix bird as its totem. The Northern Wei Dynasty

Official positions are often named after birds. Officials who specialize in supervising hundreds of officials are called egrets. The implication is that we, like egrets with tall necks and slender legs, stand high and look far away, so as to monitor and supervise officials at all levels.

their illegal behavior.”

"I know that you married Miss Lou not because you were greedy for the power of the Lou family, but to fulfill the marriage contract and save people's lives. At the same time, you are also deeply passionate about Miss Shui, and you told Miss Lou the truth without hesitation. Just by virtue of

In this matter, I decided that you are an upright and responsible person, which is the most suitable for our Egret."

Chen Chang took the badge in a daze and said: "Mr. Jiang, I am really confused by you. What happened last time was just a coincidence. I am not very talented and have little knowledge. I am afraid that I will make a mistake for you!"

Jiang Yong said with a smile: "You have little talent and little knowledge? You were the one who outsmarted the bandits in Yangjiaduwu Fort, right?"

Chen Chang was shocked, but he felt relieved after thinking about it. Now that the Liu family's father and son's bullying of him and the Yan family's grandparents had been found out, and what happened in Wubao was even more widely known, with the intelligence gathering abilities of the candidates,

Of course it’s no problem.

Think about it, these candidates are indeed very powerful. In just a few days, they have made everything clear about me.

Jiang Yong said again: "Brother Chen, you don't have to be humble! When I learned about this, I just wished I couldn't witness with my own eyes your cleverness and demeanor in defeating the bandits with more than twenty guards and more than a hundred young men.

It's really a miracle that we fought off several attacks by bandits, haha..."

At this point, he suddenly frowned and said: "To be honest, there is another person who played a role in my decision to recruit you this time. You also know this person. This person originally wanted to invite you and me to eat together.

I'm drunk, but I can't help myself."

Chen Chang rolled his eyes twice and went through Zhou Yihai, Wei Chuanzheng, Ma Liang and others in his mind. If they were to know each other, they were probably the only ones who knew each other. Could it be that Jiang Yong knew them?

I wanted to open my mouth to ask, but when I saw the sad look on Jiang Yong's face, I stopped thinking immediately.

At this moment, there was a rush of footsteps outside the hall, and Chen Chang said with a slight embarrassment: "Master Jiang, this servant doesn't understand the rules and has neglected you. You have to taste the tea here later!" <

/p>

He thought it must be the servant who came to serve the tea. He was from a high-ranking family, so the tea would naturally be good.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he finished speaking, a person rushed in outside the door. Chen Chang was dumbfounded when he saw it.

Xiao Yu'er, who was wearing a ponytail, ran in panting. She didn't even look at Jiang Yong who was sitting in the seat. Instead, she cried to Chen Chang: "Uncle, uncle, it's not good, something happened to the lady."

..."

Chen Chang saw that she was wearing a narrow undershirt and a long skirt. She was dressed in plain white, but there were a few dust stains on the undershirt and long skirt. He thought she had fallen in a hurry and fell on the road. He quickly stood up and asked: "

Xiao Yu'er, please tell me slowly, what happened to Miss?"

Seeing Chen Chang, Xiao Yuer burst into tears like pearls, and couldn't stop crying loudly: "Miss... Miss... Miss, she... she is gone..."

"Don't panic, I have the final say in everything!" Chen Chang gently stroked Xiao Yu'er's back a few times. Although the little girl stopped crying, she still choked.

After asking, I found out that Zi Ling had just stumbled back home and said that the young lady and she encountered thieves who cut off the path and robbed them on their way back from Xuezizhou yesterday. The two thieves were extremely cruel and the coachman was killed on the spot.

The two women threw themselves into the river to celebrate the festival. Zi Ling was lucky enough to catch a small willow tree on the shore and was not washed away by the river, while Lou Qingyi was missing.

Although Chen Chang doesn't have much feelings for Lou Qingyi, she is still his and Shui Ling'er's lifesaver no matter what. She is also the wife he is currently married to. She cannot sit idly by either emotionally or rationally.

Jiang Yong had heard the rumors in Jiangling City early in the morning, all about the eldest lady of the Lou family. The words were as unpleasant as they sounded. Of course, those people would naturally bring Chen Chang along with them.

Jiang Yong originally wanted to use this matter as a bargaining chip to negotiate with Chen Chenchang, but now that Miss Lou is missing, this bargaining chip is not enough.

He stood up and said: "Brother Chen, don't worry, I will make arrangements for finding Miss Lou." After that, he walked out of the front hall with his robe and walked straight out of the door.

In order to prevent Chen Chang's secret identity from being exposed, he brought a confidant with him when he came to visit today, and he is currently waiting outside the gate.

Taking advantage of this moment, Chen Chang and Xiao Yu'er went to the back house to see Zi Ling. Now she had just changed her clothes, and her wet clothes were casually placed on the carved hangers.

In fact, after Ziling came ashore, she stood by the river and called out to the lady, but the water was rolling and the surface of the river was completely dark, with no trace of Lou Qingyi's shadow anywhere.
