Chapter 117 The Legalist Disciples

Chapter 117: Legal Disciples

"What a pity, it's a pity!"

In the Lou Cang official office, Guan Ying sat in the courtyard with a big horse with a golden sword, muttering angrily: "If I had known that so many interesting things would happen, I would not have returned to Sui Yang if I had beaten to death... Damn, I might be able to make a military title."

He arrived at the building warehouse with 500 taels of gold two days ago.

The two arrived at Lou Cang with Guan Ying, Chen Yi, a man from Yangwu. Of course, the two did not arrive together, but worked hard. First, Guan Ying, and then Chen Yi. The two brought a total of 1,000 taels of gold. Including Lu Shizhi's 300 taels, Liu Kan actually spent less than 1,000 taels of gold and obtained 9,000 hectares of land. The money from Shen Shiqi was almost unchanged.

Of course, Chen Yiguanying and even Lu Shizhi were envious of Liu Kan's achievements.

But even though he was envious, he was not jealous. This was what Liu Kan deserved... If he hadn't planned carefully and wanted to buy Wanqing for two days, he probably wouldn't have the opportunity to buy so much land at such a low price.

Liu Kan escorted two thousand taels of gold to Tong County that day.

Guan Ying and Chen Yi stayed because there were still many details that needed to be solved.

The same is true for Lu Shizhi. But he doesn't have to worry, because with his second sister, Lu Jiao, the Lu family will not suffer any losses. The reason why he is willing to stay is because no one will discipline him in Lou Cang. Moreover, Lu Shizhi is also very curious about his second brother-in-law.

Thinking back to the past, Liu Kan, who was still stupid, had become today's Cang Ling in the blink of an eye, and he also enjoyed the military merits of the fourth-class title. If not, it is not high among the twenty-class titles. It is valuable that he does not need to serve. As for him, he is almost old and does not know when he will be recruited to serve... Unless he learns from his elder brother and becomes a cripple and survives.

Another purpose of Lu Shizhi's stay was that he heard that Liu Kan could form a soldier.

Since my second brother-in-law can form a soldier, he will definitely recruit people at that time. Instead of serving in Pei County, it is better to stay in Lou Cang to serve.

At least I have to take care of my second sister and my second brother-in-law, so I don’t have to suffer too much.

This is also a way for Lu Zhi to avoid the conscripts for Lu Shizhi... After serving openly, no one can tell any gossip.

So much so that Lu Wen sighed: If Liu Kan had achieved this today earlier, his eldest son Lu Ze would not have had to be lame.

Tang Li was in court and talked to Guan Ying and Chen Yi about the details of the killing of Ding Qi that day.

He regretted Guan Ying so much that he said, "I had known that there would be so many wonderful things with A Kan, so I was anxious to go back to my home. Even Cao Wushang had made a rank of military merits. If I were in Lou Cang, I would definitely be better than that boy."

It's not just Guan Ying regretting it.

Although Chen Yi said nothing, judging from his tense face, he felt a little regretful.

Tang Li sneered, "Old Guan, don't say this. Yesterday, A Kan left in a hurry and didn't settle the score with you. He asked you to shoot Xiao He in Pei County that day, but you, a kid, ran away after shooting an arrow. He didn't kill him, and he is still alive and scattered.

It’s a pity that you claim to be a hundred steps...

Hehe, wait, Ah Kan is back and will definitely cause trouble for you.”

Guan Ying's eyes widened, and after a while, she screamed strangely: "How is this possible! I clearly shot that day, how could it not be dead?"

"But he just didn't die!"

Tang Li said: "I have told you that you must be fully prepared to do such things, and that you must be killed with one blow. Your arrow only shot that person, but did not take his life. If you had known that you were so unreliable, I would have done it."

"Bah!" Guan Ying stood up with a cry, "I'll go to Pei County now and give him another arrow!"

Tang Li pulled him down, "Don't go crazy here. We asked you to do this at the beginning because we all knew that even if you killed that person, the county magistrate would not scold A Kan too much. Now that Lord Ren has been transferred, the new county magistrate is a royal family. What kind of personality and what do you like? We don't understand. If you deal with it improperly, you must put A Kan in a lot of trouble.

You stay here obediently.

The second batch of immigrants are about to arrive.

A Kan is about to start preparing to form a soldier. It is probably not too difficult for you to stay and help him and get a title."

Guan Ying paused, whispered, and sat back.

At this time, Sima Xi's voice came from outside the door, "Uncle Gong, why are you here?"

"Xizi, are you here?"

An old voice came, "I'm here to report the account by the adults. There are still some seeds he gave to everyone this spring that are useless."

From outside the door, a middle-aged man came in.

A blue shirt also highlights his outstanding style.

Chen Yiben was talking to Tang Li and glanced at him accidentally. But this glance immediately changed his face and quickly stood up.

He jumped down the steps on the courtyard and walked quickly to the middle-aged man.

He gave a deep bow and said respectfully: "Mr. Zhang, why are you here?"

The middle-aged man was Gong Cang. Because he knew the text and verbal pronunciation, he was good at arithmetic. Therefore, Liu Kan asked him to assist Cao Shen and manage the livelihood of immigrants.

Chen Yi's sudden action also shocked Tang Li and others in the court.

Mr. Zhang? Isn’t his surname Gong?

Gongcang's face also changed slightly, and he forced a smile and said, "This guy, have you recognized the wrong person. My husband's surname is Gong, not Zhang."

Chen Yi said: "Mr. Zhang, when you were teaching in your hometown in your early years, I listened to your lectures with the head of your family. It has been a blink of an eye. You may not remember me, but you remember you. Didn't you be an official in Xianyang? Why, why did you come to this Lou Cang?

Why is your outfit?"

Tang Li and others also came over, and when they heard Chen Yi's words, they were stunned.

Be an official in Xianyang?

Tang Li seemed to remember something and pointed at Gongcang and said, "Sir, may he be the Xianyang Censor, Lord Zhang Cang and Zhang in person."

When Gongcang heard this, his heart skipped a beat.

I immediately smiled bitterly, "I thought that no one would recognize me when I hid here, but I didn't expect... It's right, it's Zhang Cang."

People shouted out their names and were evasive and refused to admit them, which inevitably made them a little petty.

Chen Yi was a little puzzled, "Mr. Zhang, you are a good official in the court, why should you hide?"

Tang Li took a deep breath and walked forward two steps: "I didn't expect that I could meet an elder here. It was a blessing for Tang Li to do this."

After saying that, he walked out of the gate of the official office, saw that there was no one around, and then turned around and said, "I'd like to ask the elders to sit down."

In this blink of an eye, Gongcang... no, Zhang Cang no longer had the chaotic appearance he had before, but replaced it with an elder's demeanor.

He nodded, and with Chen Yi's support, he pulled Sima Xi with one hand and walked to the court.

"Daozi, close the door!"

After Tang Li shouted, Chen Daozi stepped forward and closed the gate of the official office. He had never seen Zhang Cang, but had also heard of Zhang Cang's name.

Therefore, in terms of attitude, there is a little more respect.

Tang Li gave Zhang Cang a rank wine, "Mr. Zhang is famous, I have heard of it for a long time. When you were the censor in Xianyang, you heard about you. It is rumored that the emperor got angry because of criticizing the shortcomings of the government, and he sent someone to arrest him. We all worry about Mr. "

Chen Yiwen looked at Zhang Cang in surprise.

Zhang Cang smiled bitterly, "I don't have that much reputation. I just think that the court's punishment is too strict and the promotion is too urgent, so I can't help but say something I shouldn't say. I want to abolish the corporal punishment, but Your Majesty disagrees. In a hurry, his words became a little more reckless and he never wanted to offend His Majesty... If my friend had notified me privately, I might have been staying to death in the Xianyang prison now.

After escaping from Xianyang, I needed the care of that friend and lived in his son's home.

But it was not a long matter after all... So my friend's son came up with this idea for me, asking me to immigrate with me and come to Lou Cang to avoid the limelight.

Well, since you have discovered me, then do it.”

Zhang Cang is from Yangwu and is a fellow townsman with Chen Yi, but he is not in the same place.

In his early years, he became a disciple and studied under Xunzi. To be precise, he was a brother-in-law Li Si of the current Qin Dynasty.

However, unlike Han Fei, although he is also Li Si's brother, he was killed by Li Si.

Zhang Cang is not as stunning as Han Fei, nor is he as good at calculating as Li Si. He is very simple and does not like to show off. Therefore, he did a good job in Xianyang and became the censor of the custodian of the documents. During this period, he also received the care of Li Si.

Although Zhang Cang did not say who the friend who helped him was, Tang Li vaguely guessed that the person was Li Si.

The county magistrate of Sanchuan County was Li Si's son, and the son-in-law Li You of the dynasty stayed in Xingyang for many years, so Zhang Cang might have asked him to take care of him.

Only Li You can have such ability to tamper with his household registration and add a character like Gongcang.

When Tang Li heard Zhang Cang's words, he couldn't help but laugh.

"Where does sir start from? Although sir serve as an official in the court, he is not a person who cannot tell the difference. sir just stay here and wait for sir to come back, if you know that sir is here, you will be very happy. Moreover, Lou Cang is now in a mess and you need people like sir to give advice. sir, please rest assured. sir, you can guarantee that you will be a hundred times safer in Lou Cang than in Xingyang.
