Ji Wendi pondered for a moment.
Three juren?
To be honest, he didn't know there were so many juren in this city.
Some outstanding scholars are more than qualified to be a county magistrate. Since there are three of them, there should be no problem in getting the job done. At least they will be better than that useless magistrate.
"Okay, that's it."
"Your Highness..." Shen Lang thought for a moment and said cautiously: "Can I meet the mercenary?"
"Are you afraid of dying on the city wall?" Ji Wendi said with a smile.
"Your Highness, I will definitely not die as long as you are here. I am afraid that I will not be able to act well and ruin your Highness's plans... If there is a problem with me, you can ask her to help fix it."
"can."
…………
Soon, Shen Lang went to see Mo Yi.
In the room that Ji Wendi prepared for her, Mo Yi ate delicious food, drank spicy drinks, and drank six jars of wine.
When Shen Lang pushed the door open, he saw the room was filled with the smell of alcohol, wine jars were spinning on the floor, and a lot of food on the table had been eaten.
Mo Yi was lying on the bed with his arms and legs spread out, burping.
"Hiccup..." Mo Yi looked up and saw that it was Shen Lang. He couldn't help but yawn: "Why are you here?"
"How dare you say that?" Shen Lang said unhappily, "I almost got killed by someone."
I have to say, the Poet Saint is the Poet Saint.
It is true that while the rich have wine and meat, there are people freezing to death on the streets.
Those people couldn't even get any rice before, and they were still working hard outside moving things.
Look at Mo Yi again, he is doing nothing here, how carefree is his life?
Of course, Shen Lang knew that this thing could not be counted like that, he was just complaining.
Mo Yi is a special talent. Her value lies in the battlefield, refining weapons, and making elixirs. She is a special talent.
With her abilities, she can influence the outcome of small battles.
Whether the people will be able to move their things in the city or be captured and made slaves or used as sheep depends on people like Mo Yi.
"Tsk, there's nothing you can do about it. Your original mission was to patrol, but you're making things uncomfortable for yourself." Mo Yi yawned: "Are you done?"
"Not yet." Shen Lang sat on the bed, grabbed Mo Yi's white and tender little hand, and looked at her affectionately: "I am your apprentice, right?"
"What do you want to do?" Mo Yi looked alert, and moved his body away from Shen Lang: "We are not real master and disciple..."
"Master, we are a family, why are we talking so differently..." Shen Lang said with emotion, "Now that Muyun City is gone, we have always depended on each other. We have experienced life and death together. It is a friendship of life and death. It is an understatement to say that we are master and disciple."
"It's impossible to buy on credit!" Mo Yi said decisively.
"No credit, no credit. Didn't the court pay for the spirit stones I hired from you before?" Shen Lang said.
This means that he really made a contribution and captured a general, otherwise Ji Wendi would not have reimbursed Shen Lang for the expenses.
Ji Wendi is a wealthy man who lives in seclusion from worldly matters, but he is not a fool.
"Well, now you still have... 3,200 spirit stones here." Mo Yi calculated: "10,000 spirit stones are really not enough."
Shen Lang said that at present he just didn’t know how to complete Lu Fengxian’s task, otherwise he would have 10,000 high-quality spirit stones.
Ten thousand top-quality items are equivalent to one million!
To set up a camp formation, a few dozen high-quality spirit stones would be enough at most.
With this money, it is impossible to be short of money in the short term.
"Yes, there is still so much money. Let's discuss it and get out of the mountain." Shen Lang said.
"Tell me, what do you want to do..." Mo Yi said helplessly.
I knew that nothing good would happen if I got involved with Shen Lang.
Every time Mo Yi went out with Shen Lang, he was always worried and almost died.
When he came out of Muyun City, he almost died in the battle.
When he encountered the group of wolf monsters before, Mo Yi thought he had to run away.
Even when Shen Lang pretended to surrender, he risked his life. If the enemy general was unreasonable, he might order the execution of Shen Lang and those soldiers.
So, now that Shen Lang is looking for Mo Yi, Mo Yi is a little scared.
However, Shen Lang really gave the money, which made Mo Yi feel sad and happy.
"Help me find out who spread the rumors and framed me behind my back..." Shen Lang felt that it was most likely the county magistrate.
My promotion has something to do with his interests.
Shen Lang is the chief historian of Kangcheng Prefecture. Theoretically, he does not have much in common with the county magistrate, and they cannot be counted as part of the same system.
Shen Lang's rank is lower than that of a county magistrate, but he is an official at the prefecture level. This prefecture is equivalent to a county, and is about the same size as a prefecture in the Ming Dynasty, governing many cities.
The Kangcheng Prefecture is not just Kangcheng City, there are also many counties. Theoretically, the ones who can manage Shen Lang are the captain and the prefect, and they have nothing to do with the county magistrate.
In modern terms, Shen Lang is an official in the city, and the county magistrate is from the county.
Ok……
There is no prefect in Cannes. The highest administrative unit of Cannes Prefecture is not in Cannes, just like the capital of Jilin Province is not Jilin. Don't be confused by the name.
Even if they had no intersection, Shen Lang still suspected the county magistrate, because now was a special period, and he had at least taken the county magistrate's job and said bad things about him...
Shen Lang thought that he had never been to Cannes, so he couldn't possibly have any enemies here. Could it be that Scar or a relative like Butler Wang just happened to see him? That would be too unlucky.
In any case, it’s always a good idea to check first.
If it was really this county magistrate...
Shen Lang said that even if he was the one who started it first and snatched the job, he had a clear conscience. If he wanted to play, then he would play with him.
Not only that, Shen Lang will have to act with the county magistrate later. If the county magistrate really has a grudge against him, he may have to use the Mo Yi brand insurance.
"Okay, it's no big problem." When Mo Yi heard that it was just such a small matter, and then thought about it, apart from that high-ranking official, the most powerful person in this city was the county magistrate of Zhoutian Realm, so he didn't take it seriously.
Mo Yi was still thinking that Shen Lang had finally become reliable and knew how to care for his master.
…………
The county magistrate was relieved when he learned that he would have to act with Shen Lang and that Shen Lang was dismissed from his post.
"This Shen Lang, do you think that he can catch the eyes of the big shots just because he is a little clever?" The county magistrate stroked his beard and sneered, "This is not how you should be an official."
"Sir..." The master said with a smile: "The city is still promoting Shen Lang and King Zhenbei. This is enough to make him drink a pot."
"His Highness said that he wanted you to act with Shen Lang. Could it be that... he wanted to use you to get rid of Shen Lang?"
"Hmm?" The county magistrate's eyes lit up.
Shen Lang was directly dismissed from his post and imprisoned in the county government office. He had to act like this afterwards...
If that's the case, then His Highness might really want me to get rid of him.
Hey, so what if he’s a hero?
Young man, you are still young!
The county magistrate knew too well how to handle people like Shen Lang who were suddenly promoted.
Getting promoted suddenly means having no team and no connections.
Cannes Prefecture Chief, do you know who the Cannes Prefecture Governor is? Have you ever given gifts to anyone? Has your daughter ever been in someone's bed?
Captain...
The captains in the northern border are the least valuable, unless they are in the royal palace.
In other states, a Zhechoufu had 5,000 soldiers, and there were 10 to 12 lieutenants alone. In Youzhou, there were only more than 1,000 people in one prefecture, and the number was only expanded to 2,000 or 3,000 by forced conscription. There was not even a Guoyi Duwei, nor a brigade commander. They tried to be as streamlined as possible, after all, the troops were all with the King of Zhenbei.
Therefore, Captain Shen Lang is worthless and it will be difficult for him to be promoted in the future.
Your Highness just gave you a few gifts, do you really think you can do it?
When you get to the underworld, remember to learn your lesson and be a good person in your next life.
"We'll talk about it later." The county magistrate stood up and said with a smile, "Let's go out and say hello to those people who are doing business."
The county magistrate didn't think about corruption or causing trouble at this time. He just wanted to make his presence felt and let people know who was the boss of Cannes.
Those scholars and juren who have no ability or background should not think that they can do anything just by clinging to the thigh of an airborne official.
…………
Time passed little by little, and Shen Lang sat in Mo Yi's room waiting.
After being busy for a long time, Shen Lang felt a little hungry, so he ate all the dishes left by Mo Yi.
Soon, Mo Yi came back.
"It was the county magistrate who framed you. He sent people to inquire about your background, and then found a group of people to spread the word that you were born in the Zhenbei Palace. This guy is now showing off in the city..." Mo Yi sat next to Shen Lang and was about to eat two side dishes when he found that all the dishes on the table were gone.
"No, you didn't leave me any!" Mo Yi widened his eyes.
"Master, figure is very important for girls..."
"I'm a cultivator, how much I eat will affect my figure!"
Chapter 134 Night Attack
"It's almost time..."
Asujiba couldn't wait any longer.
He sat by the fire, his face flickering in the firelight.
In such a windy and sandy day, all beings are equal. Even if there is only a small space for a fire, a magic circle is needed to separate it.
With the help of the magic circle, the wind and sand seemed to be avoiding the fire in front of them, taking a detour and creating a clean green lung in the camp.
Six generals, including Asujiba, surrounded the fire, apparently afraid that it would go out.
There was fire in Asujiba's eyes and he was holding a grilled chicken wing in his hand.
As long as you eat Cannes, you will have endless rice and chicken wings.
Cannes is not the core city of Cannes Prefecture, but it is the city with the most grain.
If there is anything to blame, it's because the Great Zhou was too slow in mobilizing troops. The cities at the forefront actually only had so few soldiers...
The attack had actually slowed down at this moment, or in other words, when there was a lack of one person in the encirclement, Asujiba had already started to prepare.
A slave camp and a group of old, weak and sick people have been attacking the city, consuming Kangcheng’s defense equipment and the soldiers’ strength.
The real elite are waiting and cultivating. Once the time comes, it will be the time for Cannes to be destroyed.
pat.
A drop of oil fell from the roasted chicken wings and dripped onto the fire, making a pleasant crackling sound.
Asujiba licked his lips and seemed very hungry.
"Chief, can Temur really succeed?" asked a young general beside him.
"Of course, I believe him." Asujiba looked at the fire in front of him: "Although Temur is not the best warrior, and his previous behavior was not worthy of the family's years of training, his loyalty is beyond doubt."
"Those cunning people from the Central Plains will sell anything as long as you give them the slightest benefit."
"There is ambition in Shen Lang's eyes, an ambition that the Zhou people cannot satisfy..."
"But the Zhou people have always been fond of going back on their words..." An older general frowned and asked, "Could he be pretending to surrender?"
"How dare he!" Asujiba raised his voice and sneered: "When he left, I gave him a glass of water and told him that this was a poison that only I could cure."
"I told him that if he didn't do it, he would die of stomach ulcers in a day."
"Chief, that's great!" Another general gave a thumbs up.
