Chapter 458: Assigned as an Official



Tiezhu saw his transfer order first, because his second uncle came to the Dali Temple to find him and handed him two transfer documents.

Zhou Yi pretended to be indifferent while organizing the files, but in fact he kept glancing at Tiezhu out of the corner of his eye.

Where was he transferred to? Was it what he thought?

Tiezhu looked at it for a while, became puzzled, and took the initiative to ask.

Zhou Yi straightened his back, sat upright, and prepared to answer questions with full confidence.

Tiezhu scratched his head and lowered his voice, "Master Zhou, what rank is the Fenwu Captain?"

Zhou Yi’s expression was indescribable. Just asking this?

Tiezhu nodded seriously and asked this!

Zhou Yi reflected deeply, wondering how he could eat a hundred beans without feeling disgusted by the fishy smell?

Why would he still hold out hope for Tiezhu? His mind was destined to be unable to ask profound questions.

Tiezhu showed disappointment on his face and sighed regretfully.

"So you don't know either. I shouldn't have unrealistic expectations of Mr. Zhou. After all, no one is perfect, so it's normal not to know."

The situation is really against Tian Gang. This person is actually turning the tables and confusing right and wrong.

"Get back here, why are you running away?"

Tiezhu had disappeared at the door long ago. He went to ask Ding Junjie, he would definitely know.

It feels so bad to be called a fool by a fool!

Zhou Yi, who was despised, slammed the table in anger. Just as he was about to curse a few words, his eyes suddenly fixed on Tiezhu's table.

Although this guy ran away, the transfer documents were not taken away.

Zhou Yi looked around and after making sure that there was no one around, he took decisive action and looked through the two documents.

After putting the documents back in place, Zhou Yi sat back in his seat.

He asked why the Iron General suddenly appeared, and it turned out that he was passing on the hot potato.

Old people are cunning and old horses are sly. Even the seemingly honest Iron General is not to be judged by appearance!

As the Captain of Fenwu and the Magistrate of Shuzhou, Su Shien, with his intelligence, would surely be able to see the trick quickly.

Zhou Yi guessed correctly. After Su Shien received the transfer documents, his brows furrowed more and more. His Majesty the Emperor had bad intentions!

Han Zeyu took a glance, sighed and shook his head.

The good news is that it is not a remote area, and Su Shien has been promoted twice.

The bad news is that the province adjacent to Shuzhou is the fiefdom of Prince Rui. It would be better to go to a remote place to find some peace and quiet!

Tiezhu blocked the door and showed off to Zhao Xun that he had been promoted again.

He was the one who was promoted three levels. It took him only three years to go from a ninth-rank clerk to a seventh-rank captain. What does this show?

Zhao Xun rolled his eyes, which shows that you have connections and are taking advantage of others every day.

Tiezhu put his hands on his hips and said, "It means I have a promising future and outstanding abilities. I am like gold that shines wherever I go."

The reason why Tiezhu was so excited was because Ding Junjie answered his questions and cleared up his confusion.

The captain is the general flag-gatherer, who is mainly responsible for managing the soldiers under his jurisdiction, conducting daily training and discipline supervision, and of course, patrolling and maintaining public order.

The general flag has five small flags under him, and each small flag is in charge of ten people, which means that Tiezhu will soon have fifty more subordinates.

Fifty people is not a small number. Whenever Tiezhu thinks of this, he would wake up laughing in his dreams.

In his control group, Su Shien, who was promoted two levels, was not happy.

The sixth-rank Tongpan was in charge of farmland, grain transportation, water conservancy and litigation, and also had supervisory duties over the prefect and the co-prefect.

Isn't this just acting as the emperor's spy?

He was a weak scholar who had just arrived. He kept an eye on the local tyrants and old foxes every day, ready to report them to the emperor at any time.

He is really an old man who wants to hang himself because he thinks his life is too long.

Moreover, most of the Tongpans were set up in border areas to make up for the insufficient jurisdiction of the prefects.

His Majesty the Emperor knew how to use people well, and without hesitation, he threw them to the front line to face the bleak life and the artillery fire of Prince Rui.

They were involved in the buying and selling of palace maids' identities, corruption in the horse administration system, and some scattered small cases.

As the saying goes, enemies become more jealous of each other when they meet. Who knows what kind of bloody storm will happen when the two sides meet.

Han Zeyu comforted him: "Don't be afraid, my husband. When your husband shows up, a dragon will coil up and a tiger will lie down. He's just a local tyrant. Just wait and see how I can hit him hard."

Tiezhu responded enthusiastically. He was there, and so were his fifty younger brothers.

Su Shien's head hurt even more...

Things have come to this point, there is no point in saying more. Since they have received the transfer order, Su Shien and Tiezhu must take up their posts on time.

After saying goodbye to relatives and friends and arranging their property in Beijing, the group packed their bags and prepared to return home immediately.

Before leaving, Su Shien found Bai Jinyan and asked him straight away why he had targeted him back then?

It was obvious that Bai Jinyan didn't want to cooperate.

Su Shien never forced anyone to do anything. He was about to get up and say goodbye, but he said with some regret, "I'm afraid Aunt Bai and her son won't survive."

Bai Jinyan stood up excitedly, grabbed Su Shien's shoulders and asked him to speak clearly.

Su Shien said calmly, "I've already said that Aunt Bai's life and death are in your hands. Life or death depends entirely on your decision."

Bai Jinyan said anxiously: "Don't go too far. My cousin didn't sign a contract to sell herself. She is not a slave that you can buy and sell at will."

Su Shien asked in surprise: "Cousin? Isn't that my younger sister?"

How did he know? Bai Jinyan was obviously a little flustered, and his attitude softened: "She gave birth to children for the Su family. Even if she didn't have any credit, she must have worked hard, right?"

Su Shien didn't want to waste time and said directly: "You know where the child came from. Since I can say these words, it proves that I have evidence in my hands."

Bai Jinyan closed his eyes, took two steps back, and almost fell to the ground.

His mind was at a standstill, and this series of conversations completely extinguished all his hopes.

I can't gamble with my sister's life. She has already sacrificed everything for me.

Now that he has passed the imperial examination, there is no reason for him to let his sister lose her life.

Bai Jinyan gritted his teeth and chose to tell Su Shien everything, just asking him to save the man's life.

Su Shien was speechless. He was clearly the victim, but now it seemed like he was the villain.

Bai Jinyan's story is nothing special. An elder in his family died unexpectedly, leaving behind young children and a substantial inheritance.

The brother and sister were adopted separately, and the family property was divided up among the clan.

They want to change their destiny through scientific examinations and take back everything that belongs to them.

But after he passed the imperial examination, the elders in his clan began to suppress him and prevent him from making a name for himself.

After the younger sister came into contact with the mysterious man, she hooked up with Su Wanli, who was doing business outside.

With money paving the way, there will naturally be greedy people willing to work for it.

After that, he studied at Luoqi Academy, and it was natural for Aunt Bai to enter the Su Mansion.
