Chapter 271: Committing a Crime

Because Longmen County ordered Tang Cheng to be transferred to the Sima of Rao Le Du Governor's Mansion is the Son of Heaven's holy referee, and Rao Le's current situation is really critical, so the Ministry of Officials has shown unprecedented efficiency in doing this matter, in order to speed up even the transfer documents, the silver turtle of the official's identity certificate, the six-grade official uniform and the Chao board and other things did not go through the normal official document transmission general post system, but were delivered to Longmen through the border army's urgent foot, Rao is so, the official who delivered the official document still felt uneasy, and was stunned in the military department for nearly half an hour. In the end, after carrying the emperor Lao Tzu out, he finally succeeded in sticking three feathers on this package.

When the anxious hand who took the shift to this task saw the three feathers on the package, he suddenly had a bitter "color" on his face like eating Coptis chinensis, "What a damn thing, Lao Tzu is unlucky this time!" He scolded and scolded in his heart, but his movements were not slow at all.

Captain Yushu flew to the Hanhai, and he was only in the Wolf Mountain by hunting fire. The feather book is not used lightly, but once it is used, it is a time when people change horses and moult books cannot be stopped, from the moment they are sent out until they are finally delivered, even at night.

As soon as the feather book came out, it was as fast as a spark, and when Tang Cheng received the package with his name and seal from the hands of the people and horses who were all drenched in a hurry, it was only more than ten days before the officials sent out these things.

After hearing that this object was delivered by the officials, Tang Cheng's heart suddenly tightened, "You're going to leave Longmen and go back to Chang'an so soon?" But then he realized that something was wrong, and even if the officials had any more convulsions, they would not send a feather letter for the transfer of a foreign county commander back to the capital.

"Haosheng arranged food and lodging for him", after explaining to the gatekeeper, Tang Cheng stopped guessing and walked towards the yamen, and just after entering the gate, he happened to meet Zhang Xiangwen who came over from the opposite side.

"Big brother", as soon as Zhang Xiangwen opened his mouth, he noticed the package in Tang Cheng's hand, the three feathers on it were really eye-catching, "Yushu!" What's wrong? As he asked, he had already turned around and followed Tang Cheng inside.

"You're not going out?"

"Yushu had only heard of it before, but this is the first time I've seen it. Big brother, what's the big deal? ”

"I haven't seen it yet, I don't know", Tang Cheng shook his head, and said after a pause: "But it's not a good thing to look at this posture."

After Tang Cheng opened the package in the official room, the first thing that was "revealed" was the sixth-grade official robe, "Big brother, you have been promoted, tsk, you are still a sixth-grade official!" Zhang Xiangwen came over with a look of surprise and grabbed the silver turtle bag inside, "Yes, it's a silver turtle, mother, the officials are also snobbish, the six-grade silver turtle is much better than the eight-grade copper turtle."

The silver turtle bag was preempted by Zhang Xiangwen, Tang Cheng stretched out his hand and picked up the court board, according to the rules of the Tang Dynasty, only officials above the sixth grade are eligible to participate in the court meeting, and now this thing is available, it seems that this promotion is real.

While the two brothers were looking through their objects, there was an untimely knock on the door outside the office.

"Come in!"

When the door opened, Jia Xu, Qian Sanscar, and the judges of each Cao in the yamen walked in together, and Qian Sanscar, who was following Jia Xu, said in a loud voice as he walked inside: "My lord, the more than 40,000 people surnamed Hu have moved here, and there are many things to do, so we have to ...... together."

Before he finished speaking, he had already seen these things spread out on Tang Chenggong's case, and he couldn't say the original words anymore, and after waiting for a while, his throat was dry and he said, "My lord...... Going? As soon as he said this, those judges suddenly shifted their gaze from their official uniforms to Tang Cheng's face.

"Congratulations, my lord", Jia Xu, who was the first to react from this accident, finally said something that should be said on this occasion, but even he himself could hear how insincere this congratulations was, and where was there a little bit of joy in what he did!

For a while, the atmosphere in the entire office room turned out to be extremely strange and solemn, and there was already a panic and no owner in the eyes of the judges.

Tang Xianzun has been promoted and is leaving...... How can he go? He's gone for this...... What can I do with this Longmen County?

"The county order has jumped from the eighth grade to the sixth grade, this is a super move, it is a great thing, look at your depressed appearance", when an outsider was there, Zhang Xiangwen didn't call the eldest brother anymore, and after glancing at Jia Xu and the others with a dissatisfied face, he turned his head and urged with a smile: "My lord, quickly open the official document and see what kind of official it is?" ”

The highest rank in Longmen County is the county order of the eighth grade, no matter what official is promoted, after arriving at the sixth grade, this small yamen can't tolerate it, thinking of leaving Longmen at this time, Tang Cheng's feeling in his heart is as complicated as Jia Xu and the others, and when he finally picked up the official document after hesitating for a long time, he didn't feel the joy of being promoted in his heart.

No matter how complicated the mood was, the official document was finally opened, and when the results finally came out, these few dozen words were like a basin of ice water pouring Tang Cheng from head to toe.

Because of the presence of his subordinates, Zhang Xiangwen was not good at casually getting up to see the content of the official document, and he was anxious as if he was scratching his heart, and after waiting for a while, he didn't see Tang Cheng speak, and couldn't help asking: "My lord, how is it, what is the fat shortage arranged by the ministry?" ”

Tang Cheng slowly put away the official document and waved his hand to the judges, "County Lieutenant Zhao, Jia Lushi and Mr. Qian will stay behind, and the others will go back first."

After the judges who looked confused and depressed left, Tang Cheng opened his mouth in a deep voice, "The Ministry of Officials wants to transfer me to the post of Sima of the Rao Le Du Governor's Mansion, and the affairs of this county will be temporarily handed over to the county lieutenant Zhao to take over."

"What?"

"What!"

"What?"

Zhang Xiangwen and the three of them spoke in unison, Tang Cheng was not in the mood to repeat this, so he threw away the official document stamped with the bright red seal of the ministry.

Zhang Xiangwen didn't expect such an important official document Tang Cheng to say that he would throw it away, but he didn't catch it for a while, and after picking it up from the ground and looking at it carefully, his rather white face slowly turned red, "Big brother, what are your plans?" ”

Jia Xu and Qian Sanscar only knew that Zhang Xiangwen and Tang Cheng were fellow villagers and had a good relationship, but they didn't know that there was such a relationship between them, and they were stunned when they heard the words, but at this time they didn't have the heart to pay attention to this matter.

Tang Cheng sat behind the public case and took a long deep breath before he barely restrained the urge to throw the board and other objects out, "My mind is very 'chaotic' now, what do you think?" ”

"Go for a bird! Is that place you can go to now? According to my meaning, the eldest brother should write a reply to the official document to find the ministry to defend, it is good to be willing to change the job, if the ministry refuses to change, the eldest brother will learn Tao Yuanliang, and as soon as the official seal is hung, who they like to find and who will go, where can they not live a good life with the eldest brother's talent and ability? If you still want to be an official, wait for this limelight to pass and then find someone to make a comeback."

As soon as Zhang Xiangwen, who was excited, finished speaking, Qian Sanscar, who was standing next to him, took over the conversation, "County Lieutenant Zhang is right, my lord will never be happy now, and he can't save his life if he misses his life."

After Zhang Xiangwen and Qian Sanscar said it, Jia Xu also added after thinking about it, "These governors set up by the Beidi Fan clan are not as good as the Yangzhou, Youzhou and other governors of our dynasty, the barbarians are all barbarians holding power on the ground, and the Sima in the governor's mansion, Changshi and other positions are just decorations, so put aside the matter of safety, what can adults do if they go?" ”

"Hey, Jia Lushi, what you said is clearly written on this official document, let the eldest brother be sure to protect Li Chengzhong's 'sex' life after he arrives", Zhang Xiangwen sneered, "The eldest brother doesn't have a single soldier on the ground of Xi Ren, so what can he do to protect his 'life' if he doesn't have time to protect himself?" I'm afraid that the officials came up with this arrangement, and they were really crazy."

"That's it, don't say it anymore, you guys go out", Zhang Xiangwen was not allowed to say anything more, Tang Cheng said coldly: "Go out, let me think about it!" ”

Jia Xu glanced at Qian Sanscar and then took Zhang Xiangwen's arm and walked out, and silence returned to the office.

After they all left, Tang Cheng stood up from Hu Deng, and when he got up, he waved his arm, and the new official clothes, chaoban, silver turtle and other things were swept to the ground, and there was a crisp sound.

Tang Cheng, who was pacing in the office with his hands in his hand, ignored the things that fell on the ground, and walked straight over without looking, and behind him, there were suddenly two more black footprints on the new official clothes that countless people had dreamed of, which seemed to be extremely dazzling.

It wasn't until Tang Cheng felt a thud under his feet that he looked down when there was a sound of gaba, and then he kicked it with his feet, and the board that had been broken into two was kicked under the dark bookshelf and could no longer be seen.

This is just a small 'episode', Tang Cheng, who raised his head indifferently, continued to pacing, receiving such an official document under such a situation as Rao Le, it is impossible to say that he is not chilled or disappointed, and now he is not only cold to the imperial court, but even Li Longji and even Zhang Liang are very disappointed. Lao Tzu has done so many things for you, Li Sanlang, how can you sit back and watch the officials issue such an official document! The bird is hiding the bow as much as possible, and now the bird is not exhausted*** and the bow is hidden?

The more he felt that he had been treated unfairly, the more the energy in Tang Cheng's bones attacked, and at this moment he didn't have the depression he encountered some time ago, he only felt that there was an angry fire burning in his heart.

After pacing around the room three times in a row, Tang Cheng finally suppressed his anger against the imperial court and Li Longji to the deepest corner of his heart, and began to think about the current countermeasures.

To go or not to go? Although Tang Cheng's steps were slow, his mind turned extremely fast, and he was analyzing the pros and cons of this.

From a realistic point of view, it is simply a stupid choice to go to the troubled waters of Raole now, and if the court does not give soldiers or generals, how useful can it be to give a name? When it comes to the battle for the throne, even fathers, sons and brothers can draw their swords against each other, and a name has a bird! Almost instantly, Tang Chengcheng categorically rejected this choice first. Now he is not just a person, there is a family behind him, both old and young, even if it is just for the kittens, he has to live well.

So what about not going? The official definitely doesn't have to do it, and if he doesn't do it, he won't do it! In the past two years, I have made a lot of money, and although the family wealth is not too much, it is enough to return to the territory of Zhang Zishan in Jinzhou to be a rich man. If you really want to be an official again in the future, with the foreshadowing laid in the court before, it is not impossible to seek revenge after a few years, and at that time, the demon princess of Taiping is also finished, and being an official is far better and smoother than the current environment.

When measuring these two choices from the most realistic and utilitarian point of view, there is almost no need to think more Tang Chengcheng has come to the answer: the risk cost of going to Raole is too high now, but the actual return is almost zero, and it is simply a deal that accompanies vomiting blood.

Therefore, Tang Cheng made the final decision to go to your mother's ministry, this official Lao Tzu will not do it for the time being, and Rao Le Lao Tzu will not go. It's just that it wasn't in the extreme situation of war, and there was no law in the peaceful years that prevented people from resigning.

Once he made a decision, his mind completely settled down, and after fiddling with the silverfish bag on the ground with his foot a few times, Tang Cheng walked to the side of the public case with a mocking smile and picked up the official seal of the Longmen County Order.

The heavy official seal was a little cool, and when Tang Cheng was playing with it in his hand, there was an indescribable feeling in his heart, empty, astringent, and melancholy with some faint pain.

"Cheap!" , scolded himself in his heart, Tang Cheng threw the official seal back on the official case and looked up at the roof beam.

Hang the seal away, so should this official seal be hung in this official room or on the beam of the public hall in front? This is also a technical job, and if you don't have a guide, it's really ridiculous to death.

Just when Tang Cheng's mind wandered and thought about this, there was a knock on the door of the official room again.

As soon as he heard this knock on the door, Tang Cheng's mood, which had clearly calmed down just now, suddenly became impatient again, "Who?" ”

Lancao's voice came in from outside, "The old man and the old lady have an urgent matter to summon the big officials over."

Since they were in Jinzhou, Tang and Zhang's family have never looked for him in the Shangya time because of family matters, this is the first time in a few years, abnormal things are always easy to make people nervous, hearing that Tang Cheng no longer has the heart to think about the problem of where the official seal should be hung, and after opening the door of the official room in a few steps, he has already walked towards the back office without even asking Lancao.

After the door of the official room opened, Lan Cao, who wanted to follow Tang Cheng back to the back office, looked into the room and her face suddenly changed, and finally when she walked into the room and carefully picked up the official uniform full of gray and black footprints, her face was already snow-white.

Tang Cheng didn't have the heart to care about whether Lancao followed at this time, and when he arrived at the back office, he went straight to the room where Tang Zhang's family lived, and after entering the room, he saw that there was nothing abnormal about the two of them, and the kitten on the couch next to him was also good.

"I'm scared to death, Dad, Mother, why are you looking for me so urgently?"

"It's just a few steps before and after, what are you running!" , Tang Zhang got up and poured a cup of tea for Tang Cheng, and asked with a smile as he handed it over: "Cheng, I just heard the news from the front office that you have been promoted again?" I heard that it is still a six-product, how big is this six-grade official? ”
