Wang Bo set out on the road with deep feelings in his heart. He traveled through mountains and rivers and went through many hardships. Finally, he entered Shuzhong two months later. After some travels, his mind gradually became more open-minded. When winter came, he decided to return to Chang'an.
To avoid disturbing everyone, and in order to calm down and study, Wang Bo quietly came to Chang'an City without informing them at all.
"Eh? Brother Zian?"
Wang Bo was walking when he suddenly heard someone calling him. He looked up in surprise and found that it was an old friend. He couldn't help shouting: "Brother Ji You? What a coincidence. I didn't know that Brother Ji You was in Chang'an."
What to do?"
It turned out that the man's name was Ling Peng, nicknamed Ji You, and he was a friend from his hometown. Now that he met his old friend in a foreign country, he was naturally happy and asked quickly.
"Haha, I am now serving as a legal officer in Guozhou. I have some official business, so I went to Chang'an and met Brother Zi'an. Isn't it fate?"
Ling Jiyou invited Wang Bo to a teahouse to drink tea. The two were drinking tea and talking, but Ling Jiyou said: "I heard that Brother An offended the Tian family a while ago and was dismissed from his official position. Later he went to
In Shuzhong, I don’t know when you returned?”
When Wang Bo heard this, he couldn't help but sighed deeply, and then said: "Bo is young and frivolous, and does not understand the royal taboos. What can he say? Fortunately, I wandered around in Shu and learned a lot.
, Now I regret it, and when the imperial examination takes place next year, I will definitely be named on the gold list, and then I will become an official again and earn some fame."
"Haha, it is commendable that Brother Zi'an has such an ambition, but since he is disliked by the Holy Spirit, even if he is selected as a Jinshi next year, it is estimated that he will not be able to serve as an official in the capital. Our Guozhou is currently short of a meritorious officer to join the army. I don't know Zi'an.
Brother, are you interested? Haha, Brother Zi'an, think about it, after you get the Jinshi rank, the best salary you can get is to be a school secretary in the ninth grade, and Guozhou is Wangzhou, and its status is the same as Shangzhou.
He joined the army from the seventh rank, and it is not far from Chang'an and Luoyang. Such an opportunity is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity."
"Huh? Such a position is an important position, how can it be my younger brother's turn?" Although Wang Bo was looking forward to it, he knew that the matter was difficult to handle, so he couldn't help but said with a wry smile.
But I heard Ling Jiyou laugh and say: "Brother An, there is no need to worry about this. I have been living in Guozhou for the past few years, and I am very familiar with people, whether it is the current governor of Guozhou Liang or the minister of Ma, the official department of the DPRK.
We have a close relationship. As long as Brother Zi'an can donate a million dollars, I guarantee that the position of Guozhou Sigong Cao in the army must be Brother Zi'an. Haha, let's not hide it from Brother Zi'an. I know that Brother Zi'an is knowledgeable and knowledgeable about herbal medicine.
And Guozhou is rich in medicinal herbs, which is Brother Zi'an's strength. Based on this alone, I can guarantee that Brother Zi'an's position will be as stable as Mount Tai."
"But I have just offended His Majesty, and it has not been a year. If this matter is reported to the emperor, His Majesty may not approve it." Wang Bo still hesitated after hearing this, shook his head and smiled bitterly.
But Ling Jiyou chuckled and said, "Brother Zian, don't worry. This is just a matter of joining the army from a state under the seventh rank. It is not worthy of the Holy Emperor's approval. It doesn't even need to be discussed in the Political Hall. As long as Ma Shilang passes it, Brother Zian can take office with peace of mind."
That’s it. Hehe, Ma Shilang belongs to the prince. Now that the prince oversees the country, even King Pei is suppressed to death. Who else in the court dares to touch him? "
"In this case, I will prepare the money and silk immediately. I will leave everything to Brother Ji You." Wang Bo handed over to Ling Jiyou, and then left in a hurry to prepare the money and silk, leaving only Ling Jiyou who kept sneering.
"Hey, brother Zian, you can't blame me this time. In fact, it's not terrible if you offend the prince, but if you offend the second master Wu, it's really bad luck. You have to know that today's court
, even the prince has nothing to do with the young masters of the Wu family. I am afraid that this time you will not only donate one million yuan in vain, but may even accompany you with your life. For an arrogant person like you, you still want to
Going to take the imperial examination? What a foolish dream. I treat you to a cup of tea today as compensation for the friendship between you and me."
Ling Jiyou sneered slightly, shook his head, and then said slowly: "Doctor, settle the bill."
Wang Bo naturally didn't know what Ling Jiyou was thinking, but he regarded him as a good person and immediately went home to raise money and silk. Fortunately, his family was also a big family, and he quickly collected millions by moving around.
After giving the money to Ling Jiyou, he went back to wait for the news with peace of mind.
Ling Jiyou was indeed very efficient. In less than half a month, he handed over the appointment to Wang Bo and agreed to accompany Wang Bo back to Guozhou.
Seeing that a good thing had really happened to him, Wang Bo couldn't help but feel happy in his heart, and happily followed Ling Jiyou on the road to Guozhou. Moreover, all this was hidden from Li Xian and others. In fact, this did not mean that Wang Bo's character was bad.
No, I really wanted to wait until I was really stable and then give Li Xian and the others a surprise.
But Wang Bo didn't know that at this moment, a conspiracy against him was quietly unfolding, and this conspiracy was so fast that people couldn't react at all. Even Li Xian, who was far away in Chang'an, had just received the news, and he was here.
Something happened.
One night about half a month after Wang Bo took office, a man suddenly broke into his home. When he saw him, he kowtowed and said, "Wang joins the army, save me."
Wang Bo couldn't help but feel strange when he saw this, and asked quickly: "Who are you? Why did you come to my house in the middle of the night? Also, what did you do to ask me to save you?"
I saw the man kowtowing to Wang Bo and saying to Wang Bo: "Wang joined the army. The villain's name is Cao Da. He is an official slave in Guozhou. When he was working tonight, he accidentally killed another official slave. The villain
He often worked for Ling Fa Cao on weekdays and was highly valued by Ling Fa Cao, so he went to look for Ling Fa Cao. Unexpectedly, Ling Fa Cao said that he was unable to save him, and said that only Wang Shenjun in the entire Guozhou could save the villain. The villain
Then he hurriedly defected to Wang Canjun, hoping that Wang Canjun could save the villain's life, and Xiaowang will definitely work hard to repay Wang Canjun in the future."
"Hey, you are committing a serious crime of murder. Even if I want to help, how can I not have the ability? Brother Ling is in charge of the judiciary. In fact, he should be the most able to help you. Why are you being sent to me now?" Although Wang Bo looked down on him,
For such a lowly official slave, after all, beating a dog depends on the owner. After all, this Cao Da belongs to his good friend Ling Jiyou, so he couldn't just kick him out, so he tried his best to stabilize his emotions and said in a calm tone.
Unexpectedly, Cao Da said: "My Ling Fa Cao said that it is he who is in charge of justice, so he cannot protect the villain, because almost all officials know that Ling Fa Cao values the villain very much, especially the chief minister of the state.
, he has always been at odds with my Ling Fa Cao, and he will definitely search my Ling Fa Cao's home first when the search is carried out. Although Wang Canjun is a good friend of Ling Fa Cao, fortunately not many people know about it, and he is new to business, so as long as Wang Canjun
After joining the army and hiding the villain in his home, Ling Fa Cao will report him a few days later and abscond in fear of crime. After a short time, after the villain's matter is settled, he will change his name and continue to serve Ling Fa Cao. Wang joins the army to survive.
, is no different from a reborn parent to a villain, and Ling Fa Cao will also be grateful to Wang Shenjun for his generosity."
"It turns out it was Brother Ji You's arrangement. In that case, you can stay here with peace of mind, but you can't live in my house. After all, I only have this hut, and all the people coming and going are guests.
If your identity is exposed, not only will your life be in danger, but I will also be implicated. It will also betray Brother Ji You's good intentions. Well, there is a cellar in my courtyard, which is quite spacious. I will order people to clean it up.
Pack it up, you can settle down there first, and I will return you to Brother Ji You after the news has passed."
Although Wang Bo didn't want to do anything, he still had to sell his friend's face, so he thought about it and finally agreed to let Cao Da stay and hid him in the cellar.
Unexpectedly, Ling Jiyou hurried to Wang Bo's house just after dawn, looking worried.
"Brother Ji You, what's wrong with you? Why do you look listless?" After the two sat down, Wang Bo couldn't help being surprised when he saw Ling Jiyou's expression and asked quickly.
But I heard Ling Jiyou sigh softly: "I don't know what evil I, Ling Jiyou, have done in my life. Last night, Cao Da, an official slave in this state, suddenly took action and killed Lu San, who was also an official slave, and then escaped boldly. I
I have been searching hard all night but still can't find him. Governor Liang gave me three days to close the case, but I can't even find the murderer, so how can I close the case? Isn't this going to cost me my life?"
"Huh? Brother Ji You means that Cao Da escaped on his own, not on Brother Ji You's order?" Wang Bo couldn't help being surprised when he heard this, and asked quickly.
But he saw that Ling Jiyou's expression suddenly changed, and then he said with a serious face: "Huh? Brother Zian, why did you say this? This slave Cao Da killed someone and fled on his own, how come he was ordered by his younger brother? Humph, if it weren't for your sake
As a close friend, I must go to Governor Liang to tell you the right and wrong this time."
"Brother Ji You, brother, don't be offended by what you say. Alas, to be honest with brother Ji You, the official slave who escaped yesterday is lying down." Wang Bo saw that what Ling Jiyou said didn't seem to be a lie, so he thought it must be Cao Da who was deceiving him.
I couldn't help but tell the truth.
When Ling Jiyou heard this, he felt as if he had been stabbed. He jumped up quickly and asked in surprise: "Are you serious about this? Brother Zian, is that slave Cao Da really in your house? Haha, Brother An, I'll capture you."
The thief Cao Da, you have done me a big favor this time, otherwise I really wouldn’t know where to look for him. Haha, where is the thief? I will take him away now, and I will do it another day.
Please ask Brother Zian to treat you to a nice meal."
"Wait a minute, Brother Ji You, is it really not you who asked Cao Da to come to my place?" Wang Bo still felt uneasy and asked again, his face very serious. (To be continued.) This chapter has been completed!
