Chapter 406: Brown's Dilemma (I)
The excitement has come to Liangcheng one after another since the month after sending Qi Yunxiao away, most of them come by carriage, and the people who can take the carriage at present are usually not ordinary, either there is a strong force behind them, or the family has endless spare money.
It's good to use a carriage in the city, the road is flat and spacious, the horse is relatively easy to find, and the car is not easy to break, but there is no real road out of the city, and those who choose to take the carriage either have heavy objects to carry, or they are usually used to putting the score, and they don't think that taking the carriage is a matter of putting the score, so they will come all the way to the car.
The people who came were basically the people of the Bai family's forces, that is, the talents who followed Bai Rong in the past, and the Bai family's specially cultivated talents, like the shadow, these people only have a big position, that is, follow the Bai family, and there is no small position, and they have their own opinions on who will be in charge of the Bai family.
These people who came wanted Brown to be in charge.
Bai Lang did a very good job in Liangcheng, and now Liang Cheng can't find anything wrong in all aspects, these people are all trained management talents, and they can't play a role when the Bai family and the Lin family are fighting, and they have been holding back, and now that the Lin family is gone, they are all ready to show their skills, and they feel that Bai Hong can't do it, so they hurried to find Bai Lang.
Bai Lang is very painful, Liang Cheng is well governed, and the relationship with Yang Yan is too big, what he has to do is only deal with the affairs of weekdays, and the big and important things are decided by Yang Yan and Chen Zhen, he does it very easily, from 9 to 5, and there is still time to drink and watch plays, and his life is easy and freehand.
But the stall in Jingcheng is too big, even if it is already on the right track, there are many more things to deal with than Liangcheng, not to mention that it is still far from getting on the right track now, and the things to do are piled up like a mountain, and if he goes, he will be drowned in the sea of trouble, and he will not be able to swim to the shore for the rest of his life.
The most critical thing is the problem of Bone Paradise, Chen Zhen and Ouyang do not intend to let go of Bone Paradise, and Bone Paradise is the support of the Bai family, if he takes over the Bai family, the first thing is to kick Bone Paradise out of the Bai family's power system, if you can kick it, it will be easy to do, the problem is that you can't kick it, without Bone Paradise, the Bai family has no this biggest reliance, and there will soon be a second or third Lin family, which is not counting those wealthy families who want to cooperate with Bone Paradise.
Bone Paradise is not a trouble-free lamp, the current Bone Paradise is no longer the original scientific research institution, but has become a religious organization, religion and politics are difficult to separate, Bai Hong is likely to have become a political tool of Bone Paradise.
Bai Lang was very annoyed, and he was also very annoyed by those people, those people didn't come to Liangcheng with any bad intentions, Yang Yan seemed to like to see Bai Lang being annoyed, and didn't stop these people from entering the city, so Bai Lang was miserable.
The office building is an important place, not just anyone can enter and exit, those who came by carriage were waiting at the door, like the entertainment reporters before the catastrophe, as soon as they saw Bai Lang, they surrounded him, gossiping about "interviews", bitter mouth, eager to take him in their mouths and fly back to Jingcheng immediately.
A few days later, Bai Lang commuted to and from work every day like a thief, going out before dawn, not coming out when he entered the office building, daring to go home after dark, and sometimes even waiting until midnight to go home.
"You...... You can't just leave me alone. ”
Finally saw Chen Zhen, and finally found an opportunity, Bai Lang rushed over and grabbed Chen Zhen's cloak and didn't let go, his eyes were so red that he seemed to be about to shed tears at any time.
In the restaurant, Yang Yan, Zhou Ding, and Feng Longsheng all held back their laughter and pretended to look around at the scenery.
"Why?" Chen Zhen asked lightly.
The black fog around his body is becoming thinner, not as deep as when he first entered Liangcheng, and it seems to be being sucked back by his body, which is a very worrying situation, as if his body couldn't hold so much black mist at first, but now he finally has space, so he slowly sucks the black mist back, and what will happen after sucking it up, no one can predict.
"Because...... Because...... I asked you to cooperate from the beginning, we are a position, you can't leave me alone. "Brown can't make up any decent reasons.
"If I'm not mistaken, the content of the cooperation is to ensure that you are the emperor, strictly speaking, I have a position with them." Chen Zhen walked to the table and sat down.
Bai Lang still held on to the cloak, it seemed that it was really like that, but it was because after his brothers died, the emperor could only be the emperor, so he was talking about being the emperor, and the excuse of being the emperor was easier for Chen Zhen to believe in himself and help himself - I became the emperor, and you, the person who helped me become the emperor, would of course have many benefits.
At that time, he didn't know much about Chen Zhen, but now he knows, whether you are the emperor or the queen, in Chen Zhen's eyes, there is no difference from ordinary people, no matter how Chen Zhen's body changes, his thoughts are still the same as before, and if he finds Qi Yunxiao, he will not care who is the emperor.
Chen Zhen's words made Bai Lang unable to make up more reasons, but even when he was eating, he did not let go of his cloak with his left hand.
He thought, with Chen Zhen following, or following Chen Zhen, those old men should be afraid, so they don't dare to come up and entangle.
"Actually, there's nothing wrong with being an emperor." After eating for a while and chatting about some daily family matters, Yang Yan suddenly said to Bai Lang.
Bai Lang listened carefully, the current Yang Yan is also very different from Yang Yan two years ago, the intelligence organization will come into contact with a lot of dirty and unsightly things, as the leader of the intelligence organization, Yang Yan will also be exposed to a lot of things in this regard, the change is very big, he has become a person who others can't see through at all, it is easy for people to pay attention, every word he says seems to have a deep meaning, he has never mentioned Bai Lang's matter in the past, this time he opened his mouth, then he will inevitably say something worth thinking about.
"The emperor is also tired and not tired, tired because he wants to take everything into his own hands, so he must do everything himself, the bad is tired, and the good is safety." Yang Yan's face was already very drunk, but his eyes were not a trace of drunkenness, and he continued: "If you don't want to be tired, you must have subordinates you can trust, let them share the burden for you, there are enough such subordinates, even if you become an emperor, you will have an easier life than now." ”
"To put it bluntly, it's your desire to control." Zhou Ding added.
Yang Yan nodded and continued: "But people's hearts will change with time and environment, and those who can be trusted will become untrustworthy, so you have to set up a monitoring agency, but there is a problem in this way, the monitoring agency may collude with officials, so the supervision agency will be useless, what should I do?" ”
"Let the Wolf Guard oversee the Inspectorate." Bai Lang said without hesitation.
"That's a solution, but the wolf guard won't be your lackey, don't even think about cooperation." Yang Yan said with a smile: "The idea of the supervision and supervision agency is right, but the supervision and supervision agency will also collude with the supervision agency, and then you will go crazy, you don't know who to believe, more supervision agencies will be set up, and the endless cycle will continue, the stall is big, and you are almost going to die of old age, which is not a bad thing, such a big stall, there are not many people who dare to take over, and no one will come to take your throne, and then your children and grandchildren will have to start to clean up this stall slowly, maybe for several generations, Then your Bai family can at least be an emperor for a few hundred years. ”
Bai Lang shook his head and said: "No one will come to seize the throne, the problem is that someone will push, overthrow, and wipe out the stall directly, and then you can start supporting your own stall, so ...... Let institutions monitor each other? ”
"Yes, most of the past governments did this, and your father planned to do so." Yang Yan nodded and said: "But it's off topic, how to govern the world is not something that can be explained clearly in a few words, I mean, when the emperor has a different way of behaving, why are so many people so tired of being emperors in the past?" Why are some emperors so relaxed? The desire to control is the root of tiredness, so what is the root of the desire to control? ”
Bai Lang frowned and thought about it, he really hadn't thought about this problem, and after thinking for a while, he said uncertainly: "Want to make the world a better place?" ”
Yang Yan laughed again: "Of course you have to say this to the outside world, and it is indeed such a purpose, but what good is it for you to make the world a better place?" Are you so great, tired and tired to make the world a better place? What did the emperor value most? ”
"Reputation?" Bai Lang suddenly understood.
Yang Yan nodded, didn't say anything more, and chatted with Zhou Ding on the side, Ding Ling and Hao Wei are both pregnant, and both of them are going to be fathers, discussing what will happen after eighteen years if all are sons, or all daughters, or one son and one daughter.
Bai Lang didn't listen to anything, and continued to think, he had to think about this question, in fact, he should have thought about it a long time ago, maybe among the five brothers, he was the only one who hadn't thought about this question until now.
The left hand holding the cloak was lowered unconsciously.
Suddenly, he thought of Bai Gang, Bai Gang has been living in Liangcheng, has been in a wheelchair after being paralyzed in the lower limbs, has been dead set on being the emperor, and recently seems to like painting, talk to him, maybe there will be some gains.
The dinner was dispersed, Bai Lang came to Bai Gang's residence with two points of drunkenness, the brothers originally didn't like each other, they fought when they were children, and they didn't fight like Bai Lang and Zhou Ding, after that incident, they barely talked to each other, but about this matter, they should talk about it.
"Me? Of course I thought about it. Hearing Bai Lang's intention, Bai Gang said with a smile: "The problem is that my things are not applicable to you, I dare to say, the other three things that come up with are not applicable to you, because there is a very important place in the things we think about that is reserved for Bone Paradise, do you dare to stay?" ”
