Chapter 42 The beginning of the career

Lord Chen was stunned, although Lord Wang said it unintentionally, but the word "purpose" still entered his ears, he looked at Chai Baochen, then at Lord Wang, and asked: "There is something about the lower official, I don't know if I should ask it?" ”

"Ask, don't spit out. www.biquge.info"Lord Wang seems to know what Lord Chen wants to ask, but he hopes that Lord Chen will ask, and he will continue to talk about it."

"Oops, it's not a good thing", Lord Chen thought in his heart, otherwise Lord Wang wouldn't let himself ask, it seems that it is really too much, but he has to continue to ask: "My lord, just now you said that you came this time for other purposes, I don't know if you have anything else to do?" "Lord Chen really can't think of an official who drank until the night went back early the next morning, what else could he do during this period?

Lord Wang looked at Lord Chen with a smile, this smile made people feel very worried, and it seemed that there was a "bad heart" hidden under the smile. Next, Lord Wang pretended to mysteriously reveal a news: the imperial court will soon recruit people from all over the country and build a city in the north. And Shaanxi happens to be within the scope of the Hetao area, so he has to choose a group of capable people to help him, and Chai Baochen is the person he fancies!

"What!" Chai Baochen and Master Chen were surprised.

"Of course, it's voluntary. This is a very hard work, and there are many dangers, if you are unlucky, you may still encounter the attack of Warat, and then you will have to protect yourself in the chaos of the army, which is not easy. But once you have merit, and then you get a meritorious name, it is not difficult to enter the court and become an official at that time. I hope you will seriously consider it, if you are interested in going north with me, come to the post station early tomorrow morning to find me, and I will set off at the hour. Alright, that's all for tonight, thank you for your hospitality. Leave. After speaking, Lord Wang got up and bowed, and then left with the two guards at the door.

In the private room, the wine was left, the candle flame was swaying under the evening breeze, Lord Chen looked at Chai Baochen, and Chai Baochen looked out the window......

After returning home, Chai Baochen gathered all the people in the family and told everyone about tonight, because if he set off tomorrow, tonight would be regarded as a reunion before parting, and he would have to let everyone discuss and decide together.

After listening to Chai Baochen's narration of tonight's events, everyone frowned. Wei Su said: "Xianggong, there are too many unknown circumstances on this trip, I heard you say, if you don't get it, you will lose your life, then you might as well study hard at home and prepare to participate in the township examination next year." ”

Liu Wan'er looked at Chai Baochen and said, "Brother Baochen, you haven't been far away, and you are suddenly going to a place thousands of miles away, I can't rest assured." ”

Chai Baochen listened to their words, he could feel the deep concern, his heart was very warm, he actually had an idea in his heart, this time Lord Wang took himself to the frontier, he could broaden his horizons, increase his experience, this is a very good resume when he enters the court as an official in the future, the risk is proportional to the gain. In addition, the township test will not be held until next year, and the northward repair of the garrison will take up to four months, and if you are lucky, you can rush home for the New Year. Another important point is that he has promised to help Liu Wan'er avenge and kill Wang Zhen, so he should not let go of all opportunities that may be beneficial to his career.

Chai Baochen looked at Yunlin and asked, "Please show it to Master." ”

Yun Lin looked at Liu Wan'er, then at Wei Su, and said, "Chai Baochen is not an ordinary person, he should venture out and establish his own merits." Also, have you forgotten that he had the power to prophesy great events? This is what sets him apart from others, and perhaps, his life will be full of many legends. The man has ambitions in all directions, and it is only good for him to go out and experience it. ”

"Yes, what if the Warats besiege the city?" Wei Su asked, she didn't want her husband to take risks, lose his life in vain, and be widowed at a young age.

Liu Wan'er suddenly thought that her marriage with Chai Baochen was scheduled for October 8, and seeing that there was still more than a month to come, it seemed that the wedding date was going to be postponed again, and she couldn't help but feel a little sad. Chai Baochen saw that Liu Wan'er was unhappy, and comforted: "It's okay, I'm not going to die, I'm just being a helper by Lord Wang's side." Chai Baochen didn't think about marriage at the moment, so no matter how he comforted him, Liu Wan'er just couldn't be happy.

Yun Lin looked at Liu Wan'er, suddenly remembered her marriage, and said: "Wan'er, don't be sad, I will accompany him this time, there is someone to discuss in case of trouble, Chai Baochen will be fine." Also, we'll get you married when we get back. Do you think, wait for him to establish some merits before marrying you, you are not more beautiful! ”

When Liu Wan'er heard what her master said, she immediately blushed. Only then did Wei Su and Chai Baochen remember this matter, alas, they really couldn't help Liu Wan'er. Chai Baochen hurriedly comforted: "There's nothing to be sad about. Even after Master and I went with me, how would you two weak women be at home? ”

Wei Su said: "You can rest assured about this, didn't the bandits come to our house last time they couldn't attack us?" What's more, the county grandfather, Lord Chen, is my cousin's uncle, who dares to come to our house to find fault? Don't forget, Sister Wan'er can also do martial arts! ”

"Well, what my sister said is, Brother Baochen, you can go with confidence, don't worry about things at home, I hope you will go and come back early." Wan'er's eyes revealed a lot of tenderness.

This matter was settled, everyone went back to their rooms to rest, Liu Wan'er had not officially worshiped heaven and earth, so she still lived in a room by herself. Chai Baochen and Wei Su went back to the room, and Wei Su told her husband a lot of details of life, Chai Baochen felt that his wife was very considerate, and slowly fell asleep.

Early in the morning, after the rooster crowed, Chai Baochen got up, and he and Yunlin ran towards the post station together. Both of them have light footwork, and they came to the post station after a while. Lord Wang was washing, and when he saw Chai Baochen coming, a relieved smile appeared on his face. Chai Baochen waited for Lord Wang to finish washing, explained his intentions, and was willing to follow Lord Wang, and also brought a good hand - Yun Lin, he introduced Yun Lin to Lord Wang as his master, and he made great contributions to the capture of Uncle Wang's thief party. At critical moments, Yunlin is like an insurance that can protect the safety of adults.

"Okay," Lord Wang looked at Yun Lin, "It's a hero!" ”

After a simple breakfast at the post station, the group set off. Lord Wang must return to Taiyuan Mansion first and wait for the order. However, he had already received the news that he would receive the edict in the next two days.

Two days later, a eunuch came to the palace and walked into the duty room of Lord Wang's office, announcing that Lord Wang was also the governor of Datong. In other words, Lord Wang must not only manage the military of Taiyuan, but also do a good job in the defense of Datong, and he has two positions. After Lord Wang thanked the emperor for his kindness, he sent someone to bring the eunuch to be entertained. He also ordered someone to call Chai Baochen over and told him that he was temporarily taking the post of governor of Datong. In this way, two of the nine important military towns of the Ming Dynasty were already under the governance of Lord Wang.

Lord Wang said to Chai Baochen: "Since you have a talent and fame, your writing will naturally not be too bad; can catch the bandits, and there will be no less resourcefulness. I now appoint you as the acting director of Datong, this is not an official position, you just need to help me take care of some daily affairs, so that you can also experience it. ”
