Jiang Qi was in a bad mood at this moment. If someone else asked, he would definitely scold him with a grumpy temper and spread his anger on the other person who was not open to his eyes.
But at this time, he looked at Jiang Long, sighed softly, without hiding it, and said it out.
Only then did Jiang Long understand what happened.
Chen Baihu was once a personal soldier next to Jiang Qi. Because he was young and had great skills, he was admired by Jiang Qi. Therefore, Jiang Qi, who was nearly 50 years old, wanted to let Chen Baihu start as a big soldier.
, while he could still be in power for a few years, he promoted Chen Baihu to the top.
Personal soldiers are equivalent to private soldiers of military generals, and they have to be raised by military generals themselves.
The court will not pay salaries.
Moreover, most of them signed a contract to sell their bodies and were slaves of military generals.
The court did not have any rigid regulations on the number of personal soldiers. Naturally, there were many personal soldiers from wealthy families.
And the number of military generals who climbed up step by step was less.
If you want your personal soldiers to work hard for yourself, you don’t just hold the contract to sell your body, but you have to set up your home, equip them with weapons and armor, eat and drink well, this is a considerable expense. In addition, in addition, let your personal soldiers be loyal to you.
For yourself, you also need to train hard and improve your strength, etc., which is also costly.
Therefore, ordinary generals can't raise a few personal soldiers at all.
Chen Baihu is loyal to Jiang Qi, and it is naturally of great benefit to Jiang Qi promote him.
After Jiang Qi withdrew from his position, Chen Baihu can take care of Jiang Qi's descendants at that time.
Jiang Qi is just a military general and has no title, so his descendants cannot be inherited.
At the beginning, Chen Baihu did not disappoint Jiang Qi and made a lot of contributions. Jiang Qi naturally promoted him from a big head soldier to a Baihu.
After that, Chen Baihu made a lot of contributions one after another, not far from promoting him to Qianhu.
But at this time, something happened at Chen Baihu's house.
Chen Baihu's parents died early, and it was his elder brother and sister-in-law who raised him to adulthood.
Later, the family was in a difficult situation, so Chen Baihu sold himself to become a personal soldier for Jiang Qi.
A few years later, Chen Baihu's elder brother died of illness.
Only widowed sister-in-law and two little nephews were left at home.
Speaking of which, his sister-in-law is really beautiful, and when it comes to age, she is only thirty years old and must be remarried.
Although Chen Baihu looked at Gu's sister-in-law's house and gave all his salary to her to support her family, the widowed woman had a very difficult life.
Later, an elder in the family suggested that Chen Baihu, who had not yet been married, renew his sister-in-law.
In this way, the woman has a trust, and Chen Baihu has her own home.
It was suggested that neither of them objected.
Everyone is used to life and death in the northern Xinjiang, so many things are more open-minded.
Chen Baihu has been a personal soldier by Jiang Qi for many years. He has experienced countless battles and almost died in the battlefield several times.
See more openly.
A person only lives for decades, what do you care about doing so much?
I think it is a great thing to marry my sister-in-law to come in, which can protect my sister-in-law from being bullied by outsiders and talk about gossip, and also to let my two nephews have a father.
But seeing that the wedding date is approaching, something big happened.
Chen Baihu's sister-in-law went out to buy things in the city, but was attracted by a playboy in the city and wanted to take it home and take it as a concubine.
As a result, Chen Baihu's sister-in-law would rather die than follow and hang herself.
The playboy did not know the identity of Chen Baihu's sister-in-law. If he knew that Chen Baihu had given Jiang Qi his personal soldiers back then, he would naturally not dare to do anything.
I thought it was just an ordinary person, so I didn't take it seriously.
As a result, the story reached Chen Baihu's ears, and Chen Baihu directly hit the dandy's home alone.
Not only did he kill the playboy, but he also killed and injured many relatives and slaves in the playboy's family.
After killing the person, Chen Baihu did not escape, but was taken away by a servant from the county government and imprisoned.
That family also has a lot of power in Wangsha County. Several people served in the court. If such a major event occurs, they will naturally take Chen Baihu's life.
Jiang Qi is the second-in-command of Wangsha County and dare not offend him for nothing.
But several people died and injured in the family, but they just couldn't bear it.
Even if Jiang Qi spoke, the family insisted on chopping down Chen Baihu's head.
Afterwards, Jiang Qi wanted to move in the government office and took out Chen Baihu.
But Pang Chengan suddenly intervened, and the officials in the government office didn't dare to make small moves.
Although Pang Chengan and Jiang Qi are not in harmony on weekdays, they always have to save face. There is no special reason why Pang Chengan wants to get involved?
Jiang Long was confused and asked.
"It's not that Pang's surname is going to teach benevolence, righteousness, integrity and shame. It shows that the brother-in-law and sister-in-law cannot get married..." Pang Chengan's rough voice became louder again, "What a fuck! This is in the northern Xinjiang.
How can there be so many things in the world?
Isn’t this normal thing for my brother-in-law to marry my sister-in-law and my uncle to marry my sister-in-law?
If you are in a foreign race, your son can marry me!”
In fact, this phenomenon also has a realistic reason.
First, there are few scholars here.
Second, the northern Xinjiang is vast and sparsely populated, so where can I find so many suitable families to marry?
Third, I am poor and have to spend money on weddings. I have to give it to matchmakers, banquets, and new houses. In short, the savings of more than ten years of marriage to marry a wife and go home will be spent.
If your brother-in-law marrys your sister-in-law, you can do something big.
Invite a few highly respected relatives to come over, have a wedding banquet, and clean up the house a little, and then the marriage will be done.
Jiang Long could have thought of these reasons.
After understanding the reason why Pang Cheng's intervention was made, Jiang Long also frowned.
It's indeed a bit difficult to deal with.
Chen Baihu wanted to marry his sister-in-law to pass the family, which violated the policy implemented by Pang Cheng'an in Wangsha County. The family must have taken the opportunity and handed the words to Pang Cheng'an.
If Pang Chengan didn't know, he would have to intervene.
During the incident, Chen Baihu himself was unreasonable because after the murder case occurred, he had to hand it over to the yamen for handling.
He went to the door by himself, but it became unreasonable.
However, compared with Pang Cheng's intervention, the irrationality of the incident itself is nothing more.
Otherwise, why do everyone want to be an official?
The superiors naturally have advantages and privileges.
Things are between right and wrong, so the superior person speaks, says it is right, it is right, and says it is wrong, it is wrong.
Even if black and white are reversed, ordinary people can only do nothing.
This is really a headache, and Jiang Long couldn't think of a solution for a while.
The group was about to arrive at the government office, and suddenly someone stopped him in front again.
"Sir Jing, this is a letter to your book."
The visitor was a military soldier in the official post station. Someone had sent the letter to the post station and asked him to help him pass the letter to Jiang Long, and said that the matter was urgent. The military soldier knew that Jiang Long was going to come to the government office every day, so he was
Wait here.
Jiang Long had seen this soldier and nodded slightly.
Tu Du just dismounted and took the letter and handed it over to Jiang Long.
He threw a small piece of silver to the military soldiers and sent it away.
The soldiers put the silver in their arms, thanked them loudly, and left happily.
Jiang Long slowly opened the envelope and spread the letter paper. As he looked, there was a smile on his face.
This letter is really time!
The letter was sent by Delis, and the content written on it was about two officials who were greedy and abused the law.
The incident is clear and the evidence is conclusive.
These two people are the confidants Pang Chengan recently promoted.
"Mr. Jiang, Chen Baihu is saved." Jiang Long said as he handed the letter to Jiang Qi.
Although Jiang Qi is a rough man, he still recognizes some of his words.
After taking the letter paper and sweeping it quickly, Jiang Qi burst into laughter.
"Let's go, let's go into the government office!"
In an instant, Jiang Qi became confident.
Taking off his weapons, Jiang Long, led by Jiang Qi, walked straight to the place where Pang Cheng'an handled political affairs.
I met Peng Xi halfway, but Peng Xi did not dare to stop Jiang Long.
Who doesn’t know that Jiang Qi has a bad temper?
As long as the grade is not as high as Jiang Qi, Jiang Qi will dare to whip you with a whip.
Such a rough man doesn't make sense to you at all.
So Peng Xi just pretended not to see Jiang Long, and hurried towards the direction of the government office gate, trying to hide.
Jiang Qi wants to see Pang Chengan, even if Pang Chengan has a high grade, he must not be ignored.
However, Pang Chengan did not expect Jiang Qi to bring a young official in.
When the young official opened his mouth and reported to his house, Pang Chengan's face suddenly became gloomy.
The superior asked him to cause trouble for Jiang Long and did not have the energy to do something, so he called Jiang Long to Wangsha City, intending to waste it.
But unexpectedly, this old bastard Jiang Qi actually brought Jiang Long over.
"You are the newly appointed Lingtong County Magistrate, Jing Jianglong?" Since you have seen someone, you naturally can't help but drag it down. Pang Chengan secretly glared at Jiang Qi and spoke indifferently.
"It's the right person." Jiang Long responded respectfully.
No matter what you think in your heart, you still have to do the superficial kung fu.
"I just happened to want to summon you to meet, and you are here by yourself." Pang Cheng'an's face was either vain, but it was a bit thicker. He asked Jiang Qi and Jiang Long to sit down, and just said to start, "Actually, this time
I called you to Wangsha City to tell you about the county school. The three-year autumn examination is about to begin, but there are too few students in Lingtong County who are qualified to take the scientific examination..."
Those who are officials, those who are good at being officials, and those who are able to be officials are all good at speaking.
If you are exaggerating, just open your mouth or speak, and you can make a decision in hours.
The same is true for Pang Cheng'an. He just talked about the county school, but he kept talking endlessly, and letting Jiang Long fall asleep.
But here, I have to resist yawning, otherwise I will despise Shangguan and be disrespectful to Shangguan.
It took me an hour and a half to talk, and after changing five cups of tea, Pang Cheng'an stopped.
Jiang Long quickly got up from the chair and it should be.
Pang Chengan said a few more words and instructed Jiang Long to recruit two coaches for the county school and serve as an assistant to Pan Wenchang. Jiang Long left.
After leaving the government office, Jiang Long and others returned to the post station, planning to return to Lingtong County early tomorrow morning.
The reason why Pang Chengan said that for so long was actually to give Jiang Qi anger. Jiang Qi is a rough man with a straightforward and irritable temper and cannot listen to scholars constantly stumble.
To repay Jiang Qi for bringing Jiang Long in.
Moreover, Pang Chengan also remembered the matter of Chen Baihu and deliberately made Jiang Qi anxious.
However, today Jiang Qi was surprisingly patient, as if he had become a paradise, sitting quietly, drinking tea half-closed.
