Chapter 3442: Extra 22 that went astray

Zhou Man sat at the table and asked them, "What do you think I should name me?"

Bai Shan: "On Saturday?"

Zhou Man turned to look at him.

Bai Shan spread his hands and said: "This name is the most appropriate. Your name is Xingba, but it is very different from the previous name. Others will not easily associate it with you."

Zhou Man hesitated, "I don't think it sounds good. You are a scholar after all, so can't you think of a nicer pseudonym?"

Yin You said: "I think it sounds pretty good, but maybe it's not graceful enough. How about calling me Zhou Baniang?"

Zhou Man:...it feels even worse.

Bai Erlang and Ming Da also agreed, "This name sounds nice."

Zhou Man looked at them with doubts on his face, and in the end they succeeded in deciding on this name by winning with more.

Early the next morning, Zhou Man and the others were not in a hurry to go to the chief's mansion. Instead, they went to the morning market first, and after eating the special breakfast here, they wandered to the chief's mansion under the guidance of the guide.

.

The chief is the leader of the Liaozi tribe, but there are many tribes under Liaozi, including not only the Liao people, but also the Pu people. There are many tribes and different nationalities.

The chief is the chief elected by each tribe. It is said that he is elected, but in fact he is beaten. Generally, the chief of the largest tribe in the Liaozi tribe is elected. After fighting for the position, he reports to the court and is sealed by the emperor...

Naturally, the mansion here is also the residence of the ennobled leaders. Bai Shan said to them: "After our government quelled the rebellions in various places, the Liaozi tribe submitted to our Jin Dynasty, but the internal fighting is still fierce. From the late emperor to the current majesty,

Seven leaders of the Liaozi Department were changed."

Zhou Man couldn't help but be surprised, "This speed is almost four times that of ours. I vaguely remember that this leader was replaced three years ago?"

The matter was quite a big fuss at that time and was discussed several times at the court, so Zhou Man heard some of it, but he didn't understand it well enough.

"Yes, and they are not from the same family. There are three tribes and four families in total. The current chief was 'elected' by the tribes three years ago."

The guide couldn't help but look at Bai Shan. He didn't expect him to understand in such detail.

Before they reached the place, the guide whispered: "The grandfather of this new chief was also a chief. He was the first chief who was granted the title after the Liaozi tribe surrendered to our Jin Dynasty. However, he was killed within two years of becoming the chief.

, and his son was also killed. The new chief was only twelve years old at the time. He took away a tribe and hid in the mountains, thus escaping the disaster. However, he did not expect that he would return to the tribe with that tribe.

Not only did he seize the tribe from another arm, but he also launched a rebellion and killed the previous leader, and was elected as the new leader."

The guide whispered: "So this chief is cruel and ruthless. It is better for the nobles to be humble to avoid conflict with him."

In fact, the guide did not want to interact with the chief. He was moody. Who knew what would happen?

Zhou Man nodded and said, "We will pay close attention to it."

But she turned around and asked Bai Shan, "Since he rebelled and rose to power, why did Your Majesty seal him so quickly?"

She vaguely remembered that there seemed to be a quarrel at the court meeting, but she was going to the military for technical exchanges, so she didn't pay attention to it.

Guide: ...What does this mean to be careful? And this question asks, can Mr. Bai Lang know what the emperor is thinking?

Bai Shandao: "He did not kill the previous leader Zhang Teng immediately. Instead, he reported to the court that Zhang Teng had withheld the tributes given to our court in the name of Liaozi's poor harvest in recent years, and embezzled the tributes himself to enjoy luxury.

Then everything in Zhang Teng's warehouse was sent to Dajin to make up for the tribute."

Zhou Man raised his eyebrows.

Bai Shan smiled and said: "He is respectful to the king, and his grandfather is the first leader of our dynasty, so he is considered orthodox, so your majesty forgives him for making his own decisions."

To put it bluntly, the emperor did not admit that his killing of Zhang Teng was a rebellion, but that he acted on his own initiative, so he was not a rebel.

Regarding this kind of vassal state and Jizhou, all the court wanted was an attitude.

As long as they do not rebel against the Jin Dynasty and respect the Jin Dynasty enough, the Jin Dynasty will not interfere in their internal government affairs, and whoever has the ability will be promoted to the throne.

Unless the orthodox side seeks help from the Jin Dynasty.

Since Zhang Teng did not seek help from the imperial court, or was unable to do so in time, and the successor leader respected the Jin Dynasty enough, the imperial court would turn a blind eye and let him go.

The guide looked at Bai Shan in surprise. How could this sound true?

Zhou Man then remembered and asked, "What is the chief's name?"

"A single name is a righteous word, and your Majesty will give him a national surname."

His name is Li Yi. Zhou Man clicked his tongue twice in his heart. It seemed that the emperor really liked him, otherwise he would not have given him a national surname.

Zhou Man muttered: "Why don't I know anything?"

Bai Shan smiled and said: "The affairs of the Liaozi Department started suddenly and ended quickly. You were not in Beijing at the time, so it is normal for you not to know."

While talking, the group of people arrived at the gate of the chief's mansion. Bai Shan asked the guards to knock on the door. He said to the guide, "No matter who asks, we are all scribes who came here to travel and do business. This Zhou

My wife is proficient in medicine. She heard that the chief's wife was seriously ill, so she came here to offer her a prescription. It was just to ask the chief for some convenience in the future."

This is a reasonable thing, and the guide hurriedly responded, but was still a little nervous, "Is Mrs. Zhou really proficient in medical skills?"

They were vaguely aware of her medical skills. After all, she had dug herbs and processed medicinal materials a lot along the way, but she was proficient in...

Bai Shandao: "Anyway, she knows medical science, so she won't expose her secrets."

The wizard can only respond.

The door opened and two servants came out. The guide hurriedly stepped forward to communicate. The servant stood on the steps and looked at Zhou Man condescendingly. He frowned and asked, "You are young and a woman. Are you really proficient in medical skills?"

Zhou Man became happy when he heard what he said, "That's natural. Don't you know, there are many women studying medicine in the Central Plains."

The servant curled his lips and said: "Of course we know, but he is a student of the Imperial Medical Office, what does it have to do with you?"

He frowned and looked at Zhou Man, not willing to recommend him, so he said: "There are too many of you."

Bai Shan immediately said: "They are just our friends. They were worried, so they came over to take a look. In fact, it is only the two of us who need medical treatment."

The servant's brows relaxed a little, "Do you also know medical skills?"

Bai Shan glanced at Zhou Man and said with a smile: "We are from the same school, and I also know a little bit about medical skills."

This sentence is true both before and after, but together it is half-truth and half-false.

Zhou Man lowered his head slightly, not letting the servant see the smile on his face.

Bai Erlang and others felt that Bai Shan was too bad and deliberately misled others.

But here, Bai Shan was obviously easier to win people's trust than Zhou Man. People believed Bai Shan had medical skills more, so the servants weighed it and let the two of them in.

Only the two of them were allowed in.
