Chapter 242: A New Assassin Takes Office

One afternoon a few days later, Han Yunpeng came to Su's house and invited Su Chen to come to Han's mansion to attend a luncheon, which was what Han Xizai meant.

Su Chen asked the reason, and learned from Han Yunpeng that the newly appointed assassin Shi had arrived.

"The new assassin is in office, and the Han Mansion receives him, what does it have to do with me, why do you have to let me go?" Su Chen asked puzzled.

"Don't ask me, ask my father?" Han Yunpeng stood in the courtyard, holding the chilled cold melon on the table in his hand, eating to quench his thirst.

Su Chen thought about it for a while, and felt that it was also beneficial to meet the new assassin Shi, after all, in Runzhou, he was familiar with this number one parent official, and he could have more protection for the Bai family and the Su family, and then the Su and Bai families' money-making business would be more prosperous, and their safety would be guaranteed.

In addition, he faintly felt that since Han Shilang had set up a family banquet in the mansion to entertain the new assassin, it was very likely that this person was a member of Sun Dang.

Now Su Chen has also gotten on Han Shilang's thief ship and has become a member of the camp, so he has to meet his colleagues in this camp in advance, reflecting a posture of "treating each other with all sincerity and sharing honor and disgrace".

Although Confucianism advocates that a gentleman is not a party, as early as the Analects of Wei Linggong, it is recorded that "a gentleman is reserved but not quarrelsome, and a group is not a party." It means that a gentleman is dignified and does not quarrel with others, and that he is gregarious and does not form a party for personal gain; In this way, it shows the noble conduct of a gentleman.

However, in the officialdom for thousands of years, the party struggle was started by Confucian scholars, starting from the disaster of the Han Dynasty to the more fierce and lengthy Niu Li party struggle in the Tang Dynasty, and continuing in the Song, Ming and Qing dynasties, and the party struggle in various dynasties has not been broken.

Su Chen wanted to gain a foothold in ancient times, especially in the officialdom of mixed careers, so he could only go with the flow.

"Okay, I'll go with you!"

Han Yunpeng said: "That's right, my father attaches so much importance to you, he must have introduced you to important officials of the imperial court and feudal officials, paving the way for you to enter the official career, to be honest, even my brothers want to enter the official career, and I have never seen him so attentive, sometimes I wonder if you are my father's illegitimate child." ”

"Get out of the way, you!" Su Chen laughed and scolded angrily, entered the study, and after a while, he changed into a clean shirt and came out, and then said hello to Qinqing and Ling'er, and then went out and got into the carriage and went to Hanfu.

On the way, Su Chen asked Han Yunpeng about the name of this new assassin, and learned that this person's name was Wang Yuechao, who was originally a Daozhou assassin, this time the Daozhou assassin was transferred to Runzhou, Runzhou assassin went to Yunzhou, and Yunzhou assassin went to Daozhou, and belonged to Sanzhou to change the leader.

Wang Yuechao's fame is not obvious, and there is no name left in the history books, but his father Wang Yanyu is a big figure in the five generations, at the beginning of Caizhou Shangcai people, less for the state military academy, after the end of the Tang Dynasty Zhuangzong Tongguang year, there was a great chaos in the counties, Wang Yanyu killed six people in the same column and assassinated the history, and led the state affairs. Later, he defected to the command of Li Yu in the south of the Yangtze River, and successively passed through the two generations of Southern Tang Dynasty lords of Liezu and Zhongzong, and was awarded the title of Inspector Taiwei, and served as the envoy of the Central Minister, holding the military of Chizhou, and the history of Chizhou Thorn, and was sealed on the Zhuguo, which was regarded as an important minister of the Southern Tang Dynasty and one of the important figures of the Sun Party.

Han Xizai and Wang Yanyu are good friends, the two families in Jinling are very close, this transfer, Han Xizai made the relationship between the Privy Council and the Ministry of Officials, Wang Yuechao, the son of Wang Yanyu, from the position of Daozhou Thorn History, transferred to Runzhou, belongs to Gao Sheng, after all, Daozhou is only the lower three states, in the land of Lingnan, bordering the Southern Han Dynasty, the environment is harsh, naturally there is no such outstanding people as Runzhou, Lingnan, the south of the Yangtze River is rich.

Runzhou is regarded as the base camp of the Han family, the Bai family, the Peng family, and the Su family, and it must be managed well, so under Su Chen's previous request, Han Xizai also attached importance to Runzhou, and in this way, the assassin and the prefect were replaced by people from their own factions.

Su Chen and Han Yunpeng entered the Han Mansion and saw everyone at the pavilion in the back garden.

There were not many people at the banquet, only Han Xizai, the prefect Peng Zeliang, the third son of the Han Mansion, Han Pei, and the new assassin who had never met - Wang Yuechao!

Su Chen bowed his hand: "I have seen Han Lao, the prefect, and the head of the Han family." ”

Although Han Xizai didn't get up, he smiled with appreciation, stroked his beard and said, "Su Chen, come and sit, the banquet is waiting for you." ”

A few words, but they were more important than a thousand jun, and Su Chen couldn't imagine that these people didn't have a banquet just to wait for him to come.

Such an honor made Su Chen feel flattered, and at the same time felt pressure.

can make Han Shilang and others so important, he can't lose his talents, let alone disappoint.

Han Yunpeng said with an extremely envious look on his side: "Dad, what about me?" ”

"It's none of your business here, let's go out and play!" Han Xizai waved his hand, making him flash far away.

"I ......" Han Yunpeng almost burst out of the word "grass" on his lips, but he stopped it in time.

Under Han Xizai's angry eyes, he could only retreat obediently, and before turning around, he looked at Su Chen's eyes, obviously complaining about grievances: Who is the son!

Han Xizai no longer looked at this little son, but introduced Su Chen and Wang Yuechao with a smile on his face: "Su Chen, this is the newly appointed assassin Wang Yuechao, who will guard Runzhou in the future, and he will not soon meet the new local parents." ”

Su Chen got up again and arched his hand: "I've seen Lord Thorn Shi!" ”

Wang Yuechao is forty-five or sixteen years old, similar to Peng Zeliang's age, middle-aged and calm, his eyes are like torches, and he is wearing a Confucian shirt and brocade robe, which looks a little elegant, but he has been commanding the army in Lingnan for a long time, and he has a bad relationship with the border army of the Southern Han Dynasty, and he also exudes a bit of military fierceness.

Su Chen was looked up and down, feeling the sharpness of his eyes, but he has been practicing martial arts and swords these days, and his spirit has become much more masculine, and he is no longer the image of a weak scholar and powerless, so under the burning gaze of the other party, he is calm and comfortable, without the slightest discomfort.

"Well, yes, it's a rare person!" Wang Yuechao smiled slightly and approved.

Han Xizai and Peng Zeliang also smiled, how could the person they were looking at be wrong?

Especially Peng Zeliang, looking at Su Chen now, it is becoming more and more pleasing to the eye, but it is not like the tricky gaze before, the nose is not the nose, and the eyes are not the eyes!

"No need to be polite, Su Gongzi, please take a seat, Your Excellency's poems, these days, this official has heard about it in Daozhou." Wang Yuechao mentioned poetry again, revealing a bit of admiration.

Although there is no first, there is no second, it is difficult to compare the article and the poem which is the first, because there are too many subjective factors, the same poem, it is likely that some people like it, and some people dislike it, but Su Chen's poems are famous articles that have been passed down through the ages, otherwise he would not have learned to memorize them from textbooks.

The poetry that can be circulated means that it has been precipitated over time, recognized by intellectuals throughout the ages, and has been recorded in the literary world for a long time, and is excellent and rare in terms of words, artistic conception, diction, battle, spirituality and other aspects!

Su Chen sat down with a smile, listening to the other party's admiration for his poetic talent, he couldn't help but feel the advantage of the traverser's copying, it was easy to use!
