Laughing and laughing.

It's a bad thing.

"Mr. Duan, under the thunder, I took the liberty to visit, and I still look at Haihan."

Cao Xin served tea on the side, his eyes on the visitor.

There were two people who came.

The leader calls himself 'Lei Meng', and he has 'Lei' and 'Meng' in his name, but in fact he is a delicate scholar, with a handsome white face and sword eyebrows.

Dressed in embroidered clothes, quite magnanimous.

The other seemed to be reckless, and Chong Duan Chong arched his hand and said, "Brother Duan, don't come to harm." ”

Cao Xin didn't know this person, but it seemed that this person was an old acquaintance with Duan Chong.

"Brother Chen is not enjoying the blessings of the Cai Shui Gang, I don't know what to teach?"

Duan Chong frowned in his heart, and couldn't help but sigh.

As soon as you enter the rivers and lakes, you can't help yourself.

He went down the mountain last year, intending to live in seclusion in order to further improve the 'Tempest Sword', which was worth his life.

As a result, the couple was hit hard by the enemy halfway, and they had no choice but to enter Xijing City to seek medical treatment and recuperate from their injuries, and only wait for their injuries to heal before making plans.

After a few months, it feels like 'hidden in the city' is not bad.

But who would have thought that the cheap disciple who was originally just accepted for Qian Yin was still a piece of jade, with excellent character and qualifications, and he was allowed to inherit the mantle.

A few thoughts.

Really satisfied.

So, Duan Chong made an exception and went to the Cai Shui Gang at the end of last year, and had a good conversation with the Cai Shui Gang leader and several deputy gang leaders, and was able to tick Cao Ren's name off the list.

At that time, I already expected that the tree wanted to be quiet, and the wind might not stop.

Sure enough.

It's only been two months, and trouble has already come to the door.

This 'Brother Chen', named 'Chen Biao', is one of the three deputy gang leaders of the Cai Shui Gang, known as the 'Night Battle Bafang', and the housekeeping martial art 'Night Walking Knife' is a pictographic routine that simulates night battles all the way, and the style is extremely unique. Its movements are light and round, chic and elegant, flashing and moving, slow and urgent, flipping and twisting, unpredictable.

is regarded as the number one person in Xijing Jianghu.

If you come to the door today, I am afraid that nothing good will happen.

……

"That's a good thing!"

Cao Xin took the initiative to take over the work of serving tea and pouring water, and listened quietly on the side, and after a while, he had an understanding of the identities of 'Lei Meng' and 'Chen Biao', and guessed their intentions, and he was happy in his heart.

These two—

The latter is the deputy leader of the Cai Shui Gang, whose fame, power, and force can be ranked in the entire Xijing Jianghu.

But in comparison, the former one has a bigger origin.

"Lei Mouxi is the prison of the embroidery department, this time he was ordered to enter Xijing City and set up the Xijing Department, it is the time to recruit talents, I wonder if Mr. Duan is willing to join my embroidery department?"

Lei Meng's eyes were sincere.

Embroidered Clothes Division!

Gee!

Cao Xin has a lot to know about this yamen recently-

Without him!

Professional counterpart!

The 'Embroidery Division' was founded in the previous dynasty and was a yamen specializing in dealing with the affairs of rivers and lakes.

After the founding of the Great Liang, it was abolished, and the functional affairs were merged into the 'Jinyi Guard'. However, the more important duties of the 'Jinyi Guard' are to be ordered to 'seek adultery', 'govern prisons', 'arrest thieves', and supervise officials, relatives and nobles who are extravagant, overstepping, and illegal.

The responsibilities are too broad and biased towards officialdom.

Therefore, it is inevitable that there will be omissions and not enough attention to the affairs of the rivers and lakes. However, in recent years, the world has been unstable, and there have been many chaos in the rivers and lakes.

So, in the first year of Qianyou, the emperor's uncle 'Lu Yu' suggested that the 'embroidery department' be re-established, and then he led the 'lifting the embroidery department', and began to recruit talents and supervise the rivers and lakes.

If the warrior who is 'chivalrous and forbidden' is a mouse, then the 'embroidered messenger' of the 'embroidery department' is a cat.

Cao Xin repeatedly committed major crimes in Xijing City, and he was the key target of the 'Embroidery Division'.

Isn't it a 'professional counterpart'!

"Hey!"

Cao Xin laughed at the bottom of his heart, not afraid at all.

In the first two years, the main focus of the 'Embroidery Division' was on the north and east of Erjing, and with these two places, it gradually penetrated into the north and east of Daliang.

Wait until this year, that is, the fourth year of Qianyou.

The embroidery department finally freed up its hands and allocated manpower to the central, southern and western capitals to fully roll out and monitor the entire Daliang rivers and lakes.

And Lei Meng and others are the first batch of 'embroidery messengers' of the Xijing Department of the Embroidery Division.

Xijing Department of grass-roots creation.

The focus is on recruiting talent.

For example, Thunderbolt.

The Cai Shui Gang where he went first recruited Chen Biao, the deputy gang leader. I also learned from Chen Biao's mouth about the mysterious high-tech rush of 'in the opposition'.

That's why we are today.

The 'Xijing Administration', which is still in the stage of recruitment, has nothing to fear.

Even, with Cao Xin's modus operandi, even if the 'Xijing Bureau' is completed, he can't help it.

Catch thieves and stolen goods, catch traitors and catch doubles.

Can't be blocked.

Can't catch it.

What is there to be afraid of?

Cao Xin's mind turned around, and he was not worried about the embroidery division's involvement in Xijing City, but he was already clear about Lei Meng's intention and reason.

If you get to the bottom of it, the root is actually in him.

"If I hadn't asked my eldest brother to change the martial arts hall frequently, I wouldn't have been able to go to the Huanglong Martial Arts Hall and meet Uncle Duan. If I hadn't had 'insight' and persuaded my eldest brother to open the way with money, I wouldn't have been able to apprentice, let alone be valued by Uncle Duan. ”

"Later, it was also me who openly and secretly helped Uncle Duan help the eldest brother get out of the Cai Shui Gang."

Now it's all right.

Cao Ren did get out.

Duan Chong was entangled.

Although Cao Xin felt that it was a good thing that the embroidery division came to solicit him, Duan Chong didn't think so!

……

"Mr. Duan, please stay, Lei will come back to visit in a few days."

After three rounds of tea, Lei Meng and Chen Biao left.

"The prison secretary personally came to solicit him, but Duan Chong deliberately prevaricated, and he couldn't help but know how to raise it!"

On the way, Chen Biao spoke ill of people generously.

"Brother Chen's words are serious."

"People in the rivers and lakes are used to being scattered, and they have always despised the laws of the imperial court, and regarded us as the eagle dogs of the imperial court. Lei Meng laughed.

"If he responds, he will immediately be the Great Seal of the Embroidery Division, which is one level higher than the head catcher of a county, and is equivalent to the six-room warden, and then it is the official body - from the nine-grade embroidery department."

"Huh!"

"After all, the rivers and lakes are shallow-eyed, timid, and not on the stage!"

Chen Biao said with a grin.

He has always been a straightforward and outspoken character outside, so he will not be too vague about what he says in front of Lei Meng.

But that's the surface.

In fact, if he can sit as the deputy leader of the Cai Shui Gang, how can Chen Biao be really straightforward?

If you don't pay attention, you'll die early!

When he said this at this time, it seemed that he was belittling Duan Chong and giving Duan Chong eye medicine, but in fact, he was showing his loyalty to Lei Meng and expressing his satisfaction with the current treatment.

Like Lei Meng's 'offer' to Duan Chong just now, Chen Biao joined the Embroidery Division and entered the Xijing Bureau, starting from the 'Great Seal Record'.

This is not an official body, but a small official.

But further up is from the nine products of the 'Iron Fu Messenger', the first awarded as the 'embroidery secretary', and then awarded the 'embroidery prison', the position than the inspection.

For example, Lei Meng, two years ago, he joined the company with 'embroidered clothes', this position was originally awarded as 'Small Seal Record', and then awarded as 'Big Seal Record', Lei Meng is good because of his martial arts skills, the focus is on a good background and background, so the beginning is 'Big Seal Record'.

In just two years, he has been promoted to the 'Embroidery Prison', from the nine-rank official body.

Once it goes further, it will be the 'Bronze Fu Messenger', the official body of the ninth grade, comparable to the county order of a small county, and the glory of the ancestors.

The official body of the Liang is rare, if he is born as a Xu official, the limit of his life is to inspect from the nine grades. For example, Guo Sheng's second uncle, who has been operating in the yamen for a lifetime, has made a lot of credit on paper, and he doesn't know how much money he used in private, so he crossed the class from a county to catch the head and became a party to inspect, which is also from the official body of the ninth grade.

But at this point, Second Uncle Guo's career stopped.

Because of the problem of origin, there is no possibility of moving forward.

Martial artists want to be officials, fight for their lives on the battlefield, and die for life, this is a way. But relying on bravery, if you want to become a junior officer, it's okay to be a nine-rank or eight-rank general, and if you want to go up, you have to be familiar with military books, both civil and military, and ordinary martial artists are difficult to reach.

Another is the path of Second Uncle Guo.

Starting from catching fast and catching heads, a lifetime of hard work, and money and silver, are expected to get the job of patrol inspection, and have a nine-grade official body.

Equally tough.

But it's different these days.

In addition to the above two roads, the 'Embroidery Division' is the newly opened third official road official road -

Lux Miscellaneous Servants.

Wandering Scribe.

Embroidery records: small seals, large seals.

Iron Talisman Messenger: Minister, Prison.

Bronze Talisman Messenger: Check and polish.

……

Step by step, there are traces to follow.

If you can do the ultimate in the embroidery division——

The deputy of the left and right divisions is from the five products, comparable to a provincial officer.

Embroidered clothes are lifted from the three products, this is the big man in the court.

In the past, if a martial artist wanted to achieve this position, it was difficult and difficult, and there was no way.

Now I finally have a tangible goal.

This is the main reason why Chen Biao is willing to join the embroidery department.

At the same time, it is also the pursuit of a character with a background like Lei Meng.
