Crowned the New Han Dynasty

Chapter 821 Group Belongs

"Even the captain of the school has been rewarded. I don't know how to arrange it for me?"

Tang Zi muttered in his heart, but in order not to be underestimated by others, he tried his best to maintain a calm surface. However, the thoughts in his heart were too intense and his expression was quite unnatural. Moreover, he also noticed that as the Yang brothers got sick, After the position, the remaining soldiers in this room only have one set of seals.

After looking at himself and then at Ran Zhan, Tang Zi felt that if he calculated the closeness with Chen Zhi, he would definitely be inferior to Ran Zhan. The chance of receiving this set of seals for him was really slim.

"But if I don't have a role at all, why did the Lord summon me here? Just to watch others get the seal? This is a bit wrong. After all, besides representing the Tang family, I am here this time. More importantly, it represents the Daijun family. If it ends up being a wasted trip and returning empty-handed, it will not be good for Fujun’s reputation if word spreads, and many aristocratic families will have to hesitate."

It might be fine at first, but if you call someone over, give them nothing, and then let them out, the people watching will inevitably murmur.

Thinking like this, Tang Zi's anxious mood became more and more obvious. If the others around him were not immersed in the joy of obtaining a high-level position, they might have noticed the change in Tang Zi's mood.

However, in comparison, Ran Zhan doesn't have such good self-cultivation and patience. Tang Zi still knows how to hide a little bit of his true feelings, but Ran Zhan doesn't care much. The anxiety and doubts on his face are already overflowing. When Zhifen was conferring official positions, he had already established a dignity that made people feel wary. Even Ran Zhan could not help but ask questions.

But even so, it's not much better. He feels a little restless just standing there.

Chen Zhi looked at the two of them and couldn't help but laugh.

"Don't be anxious, you two." After saying this, he looked at Tang Zi, "Tang Jun, I have read your article. It is very insightful and informative. Several of the measures in it are even more... I have inspired you. With your talent and learning, you will definitely be selected even if you are selected by the imperial court. You will be able to make achievements anywhere. This time, I am a first-come-first-served officer. I don’t know if you can do this in the general’s palace. Are you willing to do it?”

As soon as he said this, everyone looked at him sideways, but Tang Zi was stunned, and immediately felt a burst of joy. He hurriedly stepped forward, bent down and saluted, and after standing up straight, he solemnly said: "I am willing to do this and go through fire and water for the general!"

Chen Zhi nodded and waved his hand, and the last soldier carrying the seal walked over and handed over the official uniform and seal in the tray.

Tang Zi took it over happily. When he saw what was on the plate, he was even more excited and could hardly control himself!

"I don't think that I, Tang Zi, came from a noble family and went through many hardships, but I can still be where I am today!"

Thinking in his heart, the past scenes flashed through his mind quickly like a revolving lantern. In an instant, he felt sighs and sighs. Then he looked at Chen Zhi, and the thoughts of being promoted and meeting him appeared in his heart. Feeling of joy.

Although Chen Zhi said that he could make achievements wherever he was placed, it was not easy in fact. Just his background limited his development. Many positions were simply not available, and he might not be accepted by the court.

Biejia in the General's Mansion is actually equivalent to the secretary and assistant of the general. The full name is Biejia and he is engaged in history. Generally speaking, it is an official position only available to the governor.

When Chen Zhi was in Xuzhou, the Xuzhou governor went to negotiate with him in order to recruit him for the governor.

In terms of authority, the positions of the governor Biejia and Changshi overlap, but they are also different. The Changshi can have an independent office to handle affairs and have his own subordinate officials, while Biejia follows the governor, most of the time. , is to directly convey the will of the governor, so generally speaking, there are not many subordinates. More often, it is to allow the governor to always have someone who can help and assist him, and also has certain authority.

Moreover, this position is not a permanent one in the general's palace, so it is not included in the nine general positions. Generally speaking, it is rarely established. However, if necessary, the corresponding seal can be obtained from the court and awarded. .For Tang Zi, the first thing he got was a position with power no less than that of Chang Shi. More importantly, he was able to stay with Chen Zhi, which would strengthen his closeness.

However, there are naturally other considerations here. For example, it will be more difficult for the Tang family to keep a distance. It can only be said that they are deeply trapped in this power group.

But there are gains and losses in everything, and it is impossible to take advantage of everything without paying anything. Tang Zi, who has been in business for many years, naturally understands this truth.

On the other side, Ran Zhan became even more anxious, and finally couldn't help but asked in a low voice: "Lord, what about me?" The underlying line was extremely clear, everyone has a place, but I am still white.

"Of course you are indispensable." Chen Zhi turned his head and looked at Ran Zhan, but suddenly his smile stopped, "But can you tell me whether you are qualified to be an official?"

Ran Zhan was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously wanted to say that it was enough, but after thinking about it, he realized it again.

It's different from when I first met Chen Zhi. Even though my ideas are sometimes simple, after being around Chen Zhi for a long time, I still understand some basic principles.

He is from an ordinary background, and even in the eyes of the scholars, the military household can be said to be of low origin, and he does not have a very impressive record——

In the previous two battles, it was mainly the Yang brothers who contributed. Ran Zhan at most led his troops to rush out and kill a circle, but the victory was already certain at that time. Later, Shi Le's troops invaded the border. Although Ran Zhan led the troops to force them to retreat, because Shi Le's troops were very restrained, had little impact, and could not be considered a great achievement.

Looking at it this way, he has no background and no impressive record. If he is promoted rashly, there will definitely be a group of people who are not convinced. This is a hidden danger, and it will be difficult to sit firmly in the future.

Thinking of this, Ran Zhan couldn't help but feel a little frustrated.

When Chen Zhi saw it, he couldn't help but smile. He knew very well that Ran Zhan's ability was that of a general, but he still needed to be tempered and polished, and his temper was a bit frivolous. Seeing that he was almost done, he said: "So , you first lead an army to practice, and act under the false authority of a captain. When the war comes in the future, you will be able to become a full-time official after you have made contributions. I will not grant the seal for the time being. I will bring out a military talisman for you. be able to rule.”

As soon as he said this, Ran Zhan was immediately shaken. His mentality turned 180 degrees, and he almost jumped for joy. He suppressed the excitement in his heart and imitated others to show his loyalty.

Seeing this situation, everyone around them had their own thoughts, especially Tang Zi. He knew that Chen Zhi liked Ran Zhan to such an extent, so he thought that he should mention it when he returned home, and how he would treat Ran Zhan in the future. There's going to be a change.

Not to mention what everyone thought, Chen Zhi awarded the official positions at this time. Feeling the seals of luck on everyone's heads, he felt proud in his chest and said with a smile: "Gentlemen, I will rely on your assistance in the future! I am conquering the Northern General's Mansion. So rejoice!"

When everyone heard this, they all looked serious.

"promise!"
