As a disciple of Fushan Temple, Zhan Yangchun must have been able to contact and learn a lot of things.

Chen Tang didn't expect the other party to tell him everything.

Everyone will have their own secrets, and sometimes, even between two couples, sharing a bed, there is something hidden, let alone anything else.

This is human nature.

Moreover, there are some things that belong to the stage of talking and cannot be done accurately, or they involve important things, and they cannot be said casually.

However, from the matter of marriage, Chen Tang still heard a lot of extraneous sounds.

Panzhou is one of the nine states in the world, and it is representative in terms of power structure. In the past, Chen Tang didn't dabble too much, but he only roughly knew that Zhizhou and Tongzhi were all big officials, and the official rank of Xuezheng was not low.

After returning from high school, there was a lot of socializing, and Chen Tang realized that there were basically three yamen in every state capital.

One is the state government, which is headed by the governor and is in charge of the people's livelihood and civil affairs of the state capital; the other is the office of the Admiralty College, which is responsible for education and examinations; and the other is the general's office, which is in charge of the state's military armor.

The three stand together, each has its own division of labor, and becomes a balanced trend.

If Zhan Yangchun's proposal to let Chen Tang marry Gu Xuezheng and Yan Tongzhi is a normal category, it is intriguing to talk about the widowed daughter of Commander Tan.

In this time and space, women who lose their husbands and become widows can remarry, but their reputation is not so good. Often have to pay a large dowry to find a home. In that case, it is not cost-effective, so the average widow is basically a festival, and may also get a chastity archway and leave a reputation.

However, how could he marry a widow?

The commander of Panzhou, surnamed Tan, named "Baichuan", is in charge of 100,000 soldiers in Panzhou, an out-and-out general.

The armor is mainly concerned with the defense of the army, and the troops will not be mobilized when they are idle. When Yan Zhihai was assassinated, only the officials and soldiers came, and when the demons were in trouble with the Tiger Head Gang and were killed at the poetry meeting, the relevant parties dispatched soldiers and quickly suppressed the matter.

It can be seen from this that these elite armor are the foundation of stabilizing the current situation.

There are evil spirits and demons in the world, but so far, their appearance and the scope of disasters have been quite restrained, and no large-scale disasters have broken out. In the final analysis, it is all because the state has military armor.

The importance of the armor is self-evident, and the authority in the hands of the leader of the army is needless to say, in extraordinary times, it is definitely much more powerful than these civil officials in Zhizhou.

The marriage proposed by Zhan Yangchun is indeed for Chen Tang's good.

Chen Tang did not doubt this, he felt that chaos was coming, and asked Chen Tang to find a backer to rely on as soon as possible, so as to survive the crisis. And when a man gets married, it is a common favor. Zhan Yangchun pointed out Commander Tan, and the meaning of his words was already very clear.

In troubled times, armor comes first.

Then, even if Commander Tan's daughter is a widow, she has unusual confidence and capital.

However, for Zhan Yangchun's kindness, Chen Tang can only express his understanding, he is not here.

At the moment, I was awe-inspiring in my heart and realized the problem: in fact, as long as the country is not chaotic, whether it is evil or demonic, we can only make a small fuss, at most eat some people, and it is difficult to stir up any big storms; This has created a great opportunity for many ghosts to take advantage of the void and usher in their prosperity!

Its prosperous times, humane troubled times.

To put it bluntly, it is humane civil strife, fighting each other, and then evil demons come out together, ghosts and monsters make trouble, and demons dance wildly.

It's not some luck, the balance of oppression that belongs purely to the forces has gone wrong and has been broken.

Everything Chen Tang has experienced at this stage is a manifestation of evil demons ready to move, and he deeply understands it.

After clarifying this, Chen Tang suddenly understood in his heart, and then roughly understood what would happen in the next stage.

Zhan Yangchun didn't say it directly, but the meaning was already clear: Rebellion will be a disaster!

In many cases, man-made disasters are more terrible than natural disasters and demons. When the world is like a prison and people's hearts are like ghosts, it will make people desperate.

So, is all this irretrievable?

Chen Tang couldn't ask such a question, and I'm afraid that Zhan Yangchun wouldn't be able to answer it. Great Xia will fall, and it is no longer manpower to support.

Suddenly, Chen Tang felt a little bored. A person's body, no matter how he struggles and rises and falls, in the end, he is still a chess piece that can't help himself, or even a chip in the hands of others, such a life is boring.

"But what I want, that's not the case......"

When leaving the Fushan Temple, Chen Tang said with a voice in his heart.

Seeing his back go away, Zhan Yangchun didn't say anything to stay, everything that should be said was said, and the choice was Chen Tang's business.

For him, Zhan Yangchun did consider it from the perspective of a friend. In officialdom, marriage is a very common and win-win thing, and I don't understand why Chen Tang can't make a decision. is the right person, and the woman is also talented and beautiful - General Tan doesn't say it.

"Well, he's a smart guy and can figure it out. ”

Zhan Yangchun felt that he was indeed a bit too bad, this, for the state of mind, is not a good thing: "Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable!"

After Chen Tang left, he went straight to Sihailou, ordered a large table of dishes, a jar of wine, and drank bitterly.

After eating and drinking, slightly drunk, I returned to Hanmo Street.

At night, Hanmo Street is silent and dim, the shops on both sides have long closed their stalls, and the old locust trees are standing, and the moonlight is projected through the branches and leaves, which looks mottled and detached.

Chen Tang carried a book on his back, like a student returning at night, stepping on the street, making a sound, which made the street empty and cold.

Approaching to return to the house, Chen Tang paused, and he saw two lanterns hanging outside his house, shining a firelight.

This is?

Chen Tang was puzzled.

During this time, he, Su Ling and others lived in their ancestral homes in the countryside, and the houses in the city were basically idle. Today, Chen Tang entered the city alone, and Su Ling and the others did not follow, so how could the lanterns be hung outside the door of the house?

The fire was bright, as if waiting for him to return.

After a little hesitation, Chen Tang pushed open the courtyard door, and sure enough, it was covered, and it opened it as soon as there was a babbling sound. When I walked in, I saw that the door of the main house was open, and there was also a flash of fire inside. Look at the location, it is the study.

The light shone and pulled out a figure, which was displayed on the window paper, as if it were a woman.

A woman, an uninvited guest, appeared in her home and sat in her study.

Chen Tang's expression gradually turned cold, and he closed the courtyard door with his backhand and plugged in the door bolt. Then he walks inside and closes the door again.

After doing this, his face tightened, and he strode into the study to face the woman.
