The God-Level Prodigal Son of the Tang Dynasty

Wannian County is fifty miles north of Chang'an City and twenty miles away from the village.

The group of people walked on the road for a day, and it was not until dusk that they saw the gate of Wannian County, where a group of people stood at the gate to greet them.

"The county magistrate Zhao and the county magistrate Wei, together with the Wannian County Lieutenant Yang Liu and the elders of Wannian County, came to greet the two officers." The leader came over and paid homage to Zhao Chen and Wei Zheng.

Wannian County Lieutenant cannot be said to be a big official.

At least that's how Wei Zheng sees it.

But now, the county captain in front of him is at the same level as himself.

Both are the right-hand man of the county magistrate.

"Lieutenant Yang County." Wei Zheng turned over and dismounted, with no look of contempt on his face.

"Master Wei just calls me Yang Liu. In front of Master Wei, I am nothing." Seeing Wei Zheng hand over to him, Yang Liu was also startled.

As a county captain, he cannot be compared with Wei Zheng.

Before Wei Zheng, he was an admonishment official at Yushitai, a true third-rank official.

The friends around him are all famous civil servants and military generals.

Moreover, although Wei Zheng is not the county magistrate at the moment, his title is still the Duke of the country.

How could he be compared to a mere county captain?

After meeting Wei Zheng, Yang Liu looked at Zhao Chen.

Yang Liu knew about Zhao Chen.

Wannian County is not that big to begin with, but the appearance of a county official in one village is a serious matter.

But this time, it was also the first time he saw Zhao Chen.

Seeing that Zhao Chen was only a teenager, he was surprised and felt a trace of contempt.

He secretly thought that such a young county magistrate came to Wannian County to gain seniority.

"Magistrate Zhao, these are the elders of our Wannian County..."

"Thank you, let everyone go back, you lead the way." Zhao Chen said casually, but he didn't even say hello to the Wannian County elders who followed.

Yang Liu's expression changed slightly, and the people behind him became even more angry.

"What's wrong?

, I can’t control you anymore, right? "Cheng Chumo saw that Yang Liu didn't move, and the old guys behind him even looked embarrassed.

Immediately, he jumped out from behind Zhao Chen, his eyes widened, and shouted to Yang Liu.

Cheng Chumo was already fierce, and now he was even more angry. His appearance was extremely scary.

Seeing that Cheng Chumo was not easy to provoke, Yang Liu lost his momentum and quickly stepped aside.

"Magistrate Zhao and Cheng Wei, please follow me into the city!" Yang Liu said to everyone.

…

"Why didn't you just be nice to Yang Liu?"

It was already midnight when everyone settled down in Wannian County Houya.

The villagers stayed at the inn in Wannian County and will return to the village tomorrow.

Cheng Chumo and the others went to the academy next door.

Li Ruoshuang also went to rest.

Zhao Chen and Wei Zheng were left in the Houya courtyard.

Wei Zheng was a little puzzled. Why did Zhao Chen not give face to the county magistrate when he first arrived?

It stands to reason that local snakes like Yang Liu, as outsiders, should take the initiative to show their kindness.

But...

This is not a good thing.

"Old Wei, Yang Liu is a leftover from the previous county magistrate. No matter what he is like, he is not one of our own after all."

"I plan to place Cheng Er in the position of county captain, and Fang Yizhi will be the chief bookkeeper."

"But if I don't antagonize Yang Liu, Yang Liu won't antagonize me. If he doesn't antagonize me, how can I kick him out of the position of county magistrate?" Zhao Chen laughed.

For the first time, Wei Zheng felt that Zhao Chen's methods were so powerful.

After meeting him once, he thought about capturing a county captain and placing his own people there.

Zhao Chen's idea is

good.

But this speed is a bit too fast.

"If Yang Liu attacks you, you won't be able to resist him..." Wei Zheng couldn't help but feel worried.

If Zhao Chen loses and loses face in the county government, he will definitely lose all his prestige in the future.

Then it’s okay if the county magistrate doesn’t do it.

"Can't you just miss me?" Zhao Chen said with a smile, and then said to Wei Zheng, "If my guess is right, Yang Liu will come to your door tomorrow..."

…

County Captain Yang Liu does not live in the county government office.

He has his own house in Wannian County.

Because Zhao Chen refused Yang Liu to hold a banquet in the restaurant to unblock the ban, he looked like he couldn't get enough of it.

Yang Liu was deeply angered.

A young boy dares to look down upon him like this.

That night, Yang Liu was at his house and invited the Wannian County officials who had come out of the city to greet him today, as well as a group of local elders.

"What do you think of the new Magistrate Zhao who arrived today?" Yang Liu asked everyone, but he was observing everyone's expressions.

"Yang County Lieutenant, I have never seen such an arrogant person. A mere brat, relying on His Majesty's favor and serving as county magistrate for ten thousand years, dares to look down on us like this. It is really too much." An elder scolded coldly. .

The so-called elders are just local local snakes for thousands of years.

Their family is quite powerful in Wannian County, so they naturally want to have good relations with local officials.

Who knew that Zhao Chen didn't care about them at all.

After all, he was a respectable person, and Zhao Chen's disdain shattered their hearts in one fell swoop!

"Mr. Zhang is right. As the registrar of Wannian County, I have served two county magistrates, but no one is as rude as this one." The one who stood up was the registrar of Wannian County, with a stern face and fierce words. .

"If such a person becomes an official in Wannian County, he will definitely be a disaster for our Wannian County. I suggest that we work together to get rid of Zhao Chen."

Leave Wannian County! "

"Yes, we must make it impossible for him to stay in Wannian County."

"Lieutenant Yang County, you are the most prestigious person among us. I hope that for the sake of the people of Wannian County, you will drive Zhao Chen out of Wannian County for us."

"Please ask Lieutenant Yang to make the decision with us!"

Everyone shouted together with Yang Liu.

Yang Liu didn't expect it, he just asked tentatively, who would have thought that these people's reaction would be so big.

This is a good thing.

There is no need for him to instigate me anymore.

He pretended to be in trouble and said to everyone, "Well, Yang's own humiliation is not a big deal. How could he have thought that Zhao Chen would despise you all so much."

"Tomorrow, please send someone to the county government to hear the case. There is a difficult case here and we need your cooperation."

"At the invitation of Lieutenant Yang, we are happy to go."

"I will tell Zhao Chen to be disgraced tomorrow and run away in a panic."

…

"Why don't you go see Zhao Chen off today?"

In the Li Zheng Palace, the emperor and Empress Changsun asked.

The emperor was also a little strange. Logically speaking, when Zhao Chen went to Wannian County to be the county magistrate, Empress Changsun was reluctant to part with him, so she should go and see him off.

But today, she has been in the palace all the time, and has not even taken a step towards the door of the Li Zheng Palace.

"Tomorrow I will go to Wannian County. It doesn't matter whether I give it away or not. Besides, I will embroider this wedding dress today and bring it to Zhao Chen tomorrow." Empress Changsun showed the wedding dress in her hands to the emperor.

A crimson robe with black edges and gold embroidery, embroidered with elegant hollow patterns of bamboo leaves.

"Why not embroider the unicorn on the wedding clothes?" the emperor asked.

The bamboo leaf pattern was specially for literati. The emperor felt that there would be no problem if Zhao Chen's wedding clothes were embroidered with unicorns.

"Your Majesty, you'd better rest early. You have to go on a journey tomorrow morning." Strangely, Empress Changsun did not explain to the emperor.
