Chenzhou is not a good place. This is the consensus among Tang Dynasty officials.

The prefectures and counties in the Tang Dynasty were divided into three categories: upper, middle and lower. But Chenzhou was not ranked. Why? Because the lower-level prefectures and counties were much better than Chenzhou.

People go to higher places, and water flows to lower places, so officials all compete for positions in the upper-level prefectures and counties, avoiding the middle and lower ones. Needless to say, Chenzhou, in the eyes of the officials of the Tang Dynasty, is

fire pit.

Therefore, the officials who can serve here have either offended their superiors or made big mistakes.

Some of these people are self-defeating, some have violent personalities, and some are completely lost.

It is an unspoken rule that newcomers must be beaten when they arrive. After several beats, if the newcomer performs well, everyone will accept him. From then on, the exchange of letters or gatherings at the state house are all a matter of friendship.

Du Hui's beating was undoubtedly condescending and contemptuous, but as a newcomer, Yang Xuan either remained silent or wiped the saliva from his face and responded with a smile.

You do not deserve!

Yang Xuan looked contemptuous when he said this, as if he was looking down at an ant.

Du Hui became furious in an instant, stood up and shouted: "I have been guarding Zhangyu County for several years. The thieves have been blocked one by one before me. Zhangyu County is peaceful thanks to me. You are still young, how can you have the courage to question me?"

"Yes!" Lin Ziyu, a good-natured person, responded habitually.

Someone said: "A bit arrogant."

Yang Xuan looked at Du Hui and asked: "How many thieves have encountered in Zhangyu County?"

Du Hui sneered, "Last month, more than a hundred horse thieves made a surprise attack. I personally went to the top of the city and scolded the horse thieves, who fled."

Yang Xuan looked at the person who just spoke to Du Hui, "What about you?"

That was Han Li who recorded events and joined the army!

Han Li glanced at Yang Xuan coldly, silently.

Yang Xuan smiled, "Just ten days ago, the bandit leader Deng Hu led more than 300 horse thieves to raid our Taiping County. There were only fifty sergeants in the city. The thieves' arrows covered the top of the city, causing heavy casualties..."

Du Hui immediately looked at Han Li and then changed his gaze.

"Yang led four of his followers to rush down to the city, fought in a bloody battle, and defeated the horse thieves." Yang Xuan suddenly shouted: "There are more than a hundred sergeants in Zhang Yu City, you just waved a few times with your horizontal sword, you really thought you scared away the horse thieves.

?Shameless!”

Du Hui suddenly looked at Liu Qing.

I wanted to stop you, but you spoke too quickly... Liu Qing nodded slightly.

Du Hui's face turned pale, and for a moment he couldn't find a place to fight back.

This young man won a great victory.

Liu Qing coughed dryly.

"This is the magistrate of Taiping County, Yang Xuan!"

This seems to be a nonsense reintroduction, but it makes people feel shocked.

Yang Xuan stood up and saluted.

"I have met all of you, seniors. Please give me more advice in the future."

Then came some arrangements and comfort.

Yang Xuan looked for an opportunity and asked: "Your Majesty, my fifty sergeants from Taiping County lost more than ten in the last battle. When will I replenish my subordinates?"

Han Li, who recorded events and joined the army, said calmly: "The state doesn't have any extra."

"Does that mean the official is allowed to stick to peace alone?" Yang Xuan's attitude today can be described as tit-for-tat.

Han Li said with a cold face, "There are many villains in Taiping, so you can train on your own."

"Where's the money and food?" Yang Xuan asked dissatisfied.

Han Li said calmly: "Prepare on your own."

Yang Xuan's face turned livid, Liu Qing cursed when he saw this: "Please calm down."

Yang Xuan sat down angrily, and in his ear, Suzaku said: "You still behave well when you get an advantage, I'm talking about you little fox."

Liu Qing slapped the table, and his roar echoed.

"I have been working hard for three years, and I think it is a good year. Good years bring good news. I will treat you to a meal later, and after that, everyone will go away. In a word, if you defend your own place, you have merit. If you lose your territory, you will end it on your own.

"

Then there was a dinner party.

After the meal, everyone came to say goodbye.

Liu Qing stood on the steps, and Lu Qiang was on the side. Both of them were wearing horizontal knives.

Lu Jiao, the magistrate of Wangu County, stepped forward and saluted, "Please take care of yourself."

Liu Qing nodded and said in a deep voice: "Have a nice trip."

The second person stepped forward and said, "Please take care of yourself!"

"Bon Voyage!"

Somehow, Yang Xuan felt his eyes were a little hot.

"Please take care of yourself."

"Bon Voyage."

It was Yang Xuan's turn. He stepped forward and saluted, "Please take care of yourself."

Liu Qing looked at him and suddenly smiled, "It's normal for young people to be angry because they haven't experienced those hardships. It's difficult in Taiping, but I'm watching you in Lin'an. It's easy to do."

Yang Xuan nodded, Liu Qing nodded, "Have a nice trip."

After leaving the county house, I saw two groups of people confronting each other. On one side was Wang Laoer and the old thief.

"Out."

The two groups of people looked inside the gate.

Du Hui came out first, and the other group of people saluted.

"What's the fuss about?" Du Hui asked.

A big man here pointed at the old thief and said: "It was just a joke, but this person actually humiliated us. Humiliating us is humiliating the Ming Dynasty..."

"I've met Mr. Lang."

The old thief and Wang Laoer saluted.

"What's the matter?" Yang Xuan held the handle of the knife.

The old thief said: "Those people laughed at the second brother for being a fool. They also took a penny and threw it on the ground. They asked the second brother to kneel down and say "yeah" and then give it to him."

Yang Xuan looked at him and asked: "Then what are you waiting for?"

The old thief was startled.

Yang Xuan asked: "Who did it?"

Someone from Du Hui's side came out, "This matter..."

"Hit!" Yang Xuan shouted.

The old thief flashed, but Wang Laoer was faster.

He raised his hand and waved vigorously.

Snapped!

The man who came out fell to the ground without saying a word, his body bounced a few times, and then he died.

The surrounding area was eerily quiet.

Du Hui walked over, as if there were flames burning in his eyes, "Young man, don't get carried away."

Yang Xuan took a step forward, "To deal with a mad dog, you should beat it with a stick!"

Just as Du Hui was about to speak, a man ran out and shouted: "I have an order from you, if anyone fights again, he will stay in the state, and I will fight with him!"

Yang Xuan nodded, "Come back!"

The old thief and Wang Laoer are back.

The three of them got on their horses and immediately drove away.

In the duty room, Liu Qing looked calm after receiving the report.

"Du Hui and Yang Xuansu have never met, but they got angry when they met for the first time. You said it was nothing... I don't believe it at all."

Lu Qiang nodded, "Du Hui made a mistake and was driven to Chenzhou, but he always dreamed of returning to Chang'an. Chang'an! Who doesn't want to?"

Liu Qing suddenly frowned, "What I'm most worried about is Taiping. Yang Xuan and Du Hui have a falling out. If Taiping is attacked, will Du Hui support him?"

Lu Qiang's eyes were blurred, "I am even more worried about you and my subordinates."

Liu Qing asked: "What's the matter?"
