into the night.

Jingyang City Lord's Mansion!
Yang Tiancheng was in a bad mood.

As a member of the Daqian Clan, after he took the post of Jingzhou Shepherd, not to mention controlling one side, the internal problems in Jingyang City were not smoothed out.

The county lieutenant confronted him, and the county lieutenant was an old fritter, and the old guy from the imperial city department was watching him covetously.

These three guys, each pulling a group of people in the county, greatly divided the strength of the imperial court in Jingyang County.

If not, he would not be so passive when facing the three major families in the county.

In the face of checks and balances from all parties, what Yang Tiancheng can do is to protect the interests belonging to Zhou Mu and Jingyang City Lord's Mansion.

Not to mention controlling the entire Jingzhou, but even the other eight counties in Daozhou can't control the military power.

Later, with great difficulty, he managed to win over the always neutral Zhenmosi, who gained the upper hand in the power struggle in Jingyang County.

Who would have thought that the former Zhenmasi Qianhu died suddenly inexplicably, and the newly appointed Zhenmasi Qianhu was a fierce dragon crossing the river, looking like he would settle in Jingyang City and become the fourth family of Jingzhou.

Especially thinking of the secret report received during the day, saying that more than [-] elite disciples and masters sent by the Xu family from the Dingyuanhou Mansion in the capital of God have arrived in Jingyang City, and they are now in Xu Yan's mansion.

This made Yang Tiancheng even more troubled, with all kinds of feelings in his heart.

Depressed and unable to fall asleep, Yang Tiancheng could only take his chief staff confidant Liu Huai'en to drink together.

"My lord, what troubles have you encountered?"

Staff member Liu Huai'en looked at Yang Tiancheng who was depressed and depressed, and asked with a slight smile.

"The affairs in the county are too disturbing, making it difficult to sleep!"

In front of his confidants, Yang Tiancheng didn't hide anything and said directly: "I originally thought that the new Zhenmagic Division, Qianhu Xu Yan, was born in the Dingyuan Hou Mansion and belonged to the imperial court. Everyone is a member of the imperial court and should support him." This officer, together we will uphold the laws of the court."

"Who would have thought that the Xu family would come in such a menacing manner that they would settle in Jingdi and become a powerful family of Jingdi."

"In this way, if I want to deal with the affairs of the county, I am afraid that I will have to face not only the alliance of the local aristocratic families in Jingdi, but also the Xu family of Dingyuan Houfu and the Zhenmagic Division."

Yang Tiancheng sighed, feeling very troubled.

Under the supervision of the Imperial City Division, it was already difficult to deal with the three major families in Jingyang County. Now, with the addition of the Dingyuan Houfu Xu family and the Zhenmagic Division, it is undoubtedly even more troublesome.

When Liu Huaien heard this, the smile on his face remained the same, and he looked like he was holding a wisdom pearl, and said: "My lord's words are wrong!"

"According to the officials, the arrival of the Xu family in the Dingyuan Houfu is not only not a bad thing, but a very good thing for your lord."

"My lord's concern is nothing more than that after the arrival of the Dingyuan Hou Mansion Xu, in order to integrate into the scene faster, he will join forces with several families in the scene and join forces."

"My lord, you don't have to worry about this at all. The stronger the Dingyuan Hou Xu's coming to Jingdi, the more fearful these aristocratic families in Jingdi will be, and the less they dare to accept Xu's family."

"Unless they are willing to hand over most of the benefits in their hands and are willing to live under the Xu family."

"Otherwise, if we really have to wait for the Xu family to gain a foothold in Jingdi, then it will not be the fourth largest family in Jingdi, but the four major families, one big, three small, and maybe they will be swallowed up by Xu Shi's family and let Dingyuan The Xu family of the Hou Mansion has grown from a wealthy second-rate family to a top-notch family."

"For this point, these aristocratic families in Jingdi, and even the imperial court, will not agree."

"So you don't have to worry about the Xu clan getting bigger at all."

Liu Huaien talked eloquently, and said with reason and evidence.

It's just that Yang Tiancheng was a little hesitant: "Although that's the case, with the strength of the Xu family who came to Jingdi, I'm afraid it can't reach the level that makes several families in Jingyang City afraid?"

He admitted that the people who came to Xu's family to come to Jingdi are not weak.

But if you say that the strength of Xu Yan and others is comparable to the three major families in Jingzhou that have been operating in Jingzhou for hundreds of years, or even thousands of years?
Yang Tiancheng would not believe it.

Therefore, in his opinion, the several aristocratic families in Jingdi may have a certain degree of wariness and vigilance against the Xu family of Dingyuan Hou Mansion, but they are far from the situation of fear and group resistance.

In this way, if the Xu family and his party are willing to lower their stance, they may not be unable to integrate into the local aristocratic family in Jingdi.

"My lord's words are wrong!"

Liu Huai'en, the staff member, laughed when he heard this, and said leisurely: "Your Excellency thinks that the strength of the Dingyuan Hou Mansion's Xu family who came to Jingdi is not as strong as that of Jingdi's families. As for the real situation of the several families, we know that the Dingyuan Hou Mansion’s visit to the scene this time is only to establish a branch, and they will not come out with all their strength.”

"But those aristocratic families in Jingdi don't know about it."

"In their opinion, if the Xu family can easily kill a ghost king without anyone noticing it, then the personnel who came to the scene this time must be extremely strong. They are real raptors crossing the river and can easily destroy Any one."

"So, whether it's for self-protection or for other reasons, these families will definitely unite together."

"The most important thing is that Xu Qianhu is not yet 20 years old. He is young and vigorous, and he is also a child of the Marquis. How can he not be arrogant if he occupies a high position at a young age?"

"Although it is not easy to control, it does not mean that it cannot be used by us."

"The three aristocratic families in the county have always acted domineeringly. As long as we operate properly, we don't have to worry about him not conflicting with the three aristocratic families."

"Also, if the Xu family wants to gain a foothold in the scenery, they will encroach on the interests of the local family no matter what. With the overbearing and greed of the three major families, it's no wonder they are willing."

As a staff member, Liu Huai'en's tricks have almost been engraved in Liu Huai'en's bones. Now when he talks about it, he is naturally clear and logical, and in a few words, he has formulated a corresponding trick.

However, such a scheming technique is very much in line with Yang Tiancheng's appetite.

Because he has always advertised himself as a scholar, and likes to use "wisdom" to solve problems, instead of fighting and killing like a reckless man.

So after listening to Liu Huai'en's story, Yang Tiancheng instantly felt a sense of enlightenment, the annoyance in his heart dissipated, and he laughed and said: "Hui En is indeed a great talent, with your talent to take part in the imperial examination, most likely you can If you are a Jinshi, how about I write a book and take the imperial examination next year?"

"Thank you for your kindness, my subordinates appreciate it. Your lord has saved your life. If you hadn't had your help, the students would have been killed by swords. The students have already sworn that they will follow your lord in this life in order to repay your kindness." , so there is no need for adults to mention the imperial examinations!"

Liu Huaien said gratefully, but he sneered in his heart, thinking that Yang Tiancheng didn't hurt his back when he was standing and talking.

Yang Tiancheng was born in a great clan, how could he know the hardships of a poor family?
Now the imperial court employs people regardless of talent or ability, it is completely determined by birth.

Even if you take part in the imperial examination and win the Jinshi, it is difficult to become an official.

There are not one or two candidates for Jinshi in the Dagan imperial court, but thousands of them. If there is a vacancy for an official position, how can it be the turn of a humble Jinshi, and most of them are children of powerful families.

This matter sounds a little incomprehensible, very incredible.

However, as Yu Gong said: "Although I die, there will still be sons; sons will beget grandchildren, and grandchildren will beget sons; sons will have sons, sons will have grandchildren; sons and grandchildren will be infinitely scarce!"

Now that the Dagan Dynasty has been established for more than a thousand years, which of the princes and dignitaries in the country, local aristocratic families, etc., has not been passed down for hundreds of thousands of years?
There are even some top aristocratic princely families with thousands or tens of thousands of years of inheritance, enjoying support from one continent to one place.

Imagine.

These aristocratic families have been passed down from generation to generation, and how terrifying the number of descendants can reach.

With these people around, the children of poor families and poor people want to stand out?
Just think about it and know it's impossible.

Just like the middle and low-level official positions in the counties and counties of Jingzhou, and even the official history of government officials, etc., most of them are divided up by the members of the local aristocratic families, so how can it be the turn of the poor.

The children of ordinary poor families and poor people still want to be candidates for Jinshi?

That's a joke.

They estimated that they didn't even know which direction the gate of the imperial examination room in the county city opened, and they had already been eliminated in the first stage of the imperial examination.

If he hadn't been born in a small family in a county and county, and had no one to take care of him in the court, why would he come to serve as a staff member for others.

Not only do you have to work hard, but you also have to work hard to improve the relationship with your benefactor. Isn't it to pave the way for the next generation, so that your descendants will not follow your own old path?

In other words, he has now bet his family's future on Yang Tiancheng. If the affairs in the county cannot be resolved, he will be even more anxious than Yang Tiancheng, Jingzhou Mu and Jingyang City Lord.

"You!"

Yang Tiancheng pointed at the staff, smiled helplessly, and said: "Well, if you change your mind someday, it's not too late to tell me. If you are a great talent like Huai En, if you can't become an official, you must be an official." My big loss."

As he said that, he still didn't forget to pour a glass of wine for Liu Huai'en himself, and said with emotion: "Wyen is really a great talent, just a few words, I am the only one who understands."

"I have Wynn. It's really like a tiger with wings added, and a dragon with water!"

"Come on, I'll give you a toast!"
