Wang Can opened the letter and browsed it quickly.
Sure enough, it was the Yang family of Yang Su, but now that Yang Su is dead, the head of the Yang family is Yang Xuangan. This letter is also a letter from Yang Xuangan, inviting Wang Can to go to the Yang family for a banquet.
Wang Can knew who Yang Xuangan was.
This man has great ambition but little talent.
There was a big revenge, and he even wanted to overthrow Yang Guang, but in fact, he didn't have enough ability.
Wang Can didn't want to have too much contact with Yang Xuangan, because the Yang family was the target of Yang Guang's suppression. When Yang Su was here in the past, due to Yang Su's achievements and Yang Su's status, it was not convenient for Yang Guang to weaken the Yang family.
, but it did not give too much real power, it only gave it to the Lord to give Yang Su some face. But now that Yang Su is dead, it will be easy for Yang Guang to suppress the Yang family.
After all, Yang Su is no longer here.
Although Wang Can did not want to have anything to do with Yang Xuangan, he also did not want to offend Yang Xuangan, so he immediately wrote a letter saying that he had been banned by Yang Guang and ordered him not to leave the military camp within three months.
So, I declined the invitation from the Yang family.
After the letter was written, Wang Can asked the soldiers to reply to the letter, and then Wang Can ignored it.
On the other side, the attendants of the Yang family returned with Wang Can's letter. Yang Xuangan saw the letter and felt regretful in his heart, but he did not give up his thoughts because the current Wang Can was not strong and had no background.
When it's bright.
It will be difficult for Wang Can to achieve great success in the future.
This is an early bet.
Wang Can, however, has neither the thought nor the time to take care of Yang Xuangan. He just stays in the army and enjoys the military life. After all, Wang Can is also a general now. His official position is not big or small, but he also has a certain amount of power.
The days were quite comfortable.
Training and training of soldiers, the days go by like this.
March is fleeting.
From early summer to midsummer, the hottest weather has arrived. However, the change in weather has little impact on Wang Can. After all, he himself has superb martial arts, so even if the weather is hot, it will not have much impact on him.
On this day, when Wang Can was training his soldiers, he saw a soldier coming in a hurry. He bowed and said, "General, the great general, please come."
"knew."
Wang Can nodded in agreement.
He arranged for the soldiers to continue training, then turned and went to General Mai Tiezhang's camp. When he arrived at the camp, Wang Can saw Mai Tiezhang, bowed and said, "The general summoned me, what's the matter?"
Mai Tiezhang said: "The emperor summoned me today and told you something. With your ability, it would be a bit aggrieved if you stayed in the army all the time. After all, there are not many things for you to do in the army now.
, it’s impossible to promote you.”
Wang Can said: "Then what does the emperor mean?"
Mai Tiezhang said: "Now the emperor's intention is that I hope you will be released as an official and gain some experience."
Wang Can said: "Where does the emperor want me to go?"
"Liucheng!"
Mai Tiezhi spoke loudly.
Wang Can said: "General, if I remember correctly, Liucheng is located in Liaoxi County. Now that I am an eighth-rank official, I can serve as the county magistrate of a lower county. But although Liucheng County is located in a remote area, it is still the county magistrate.
The seat of my government is Shang County. The county magistrate of Liucheng County is an official of the sixth rank. Now that the emperor has asked me to go to Liucheng County, is this a direct promotion?"
Regarding the situation in the Sui Dynasty, Wang Can spent the past three months learning about it. After all, what he knew in his mind was some situations of later generations. To truly understand, he had to obtain specific information.
In three months, Wang Can gained a general understanding of the officialdom of the Sui Dynasty and the situation in various places in the Sui Dynasty.
It's all in the mind.
So as soon as Mai Tiezhang mentioned Liucheng, Wang Can immediately made an inference.
Mai Tiezhang nodded and said: "Your boy is just as expected. In view of your ability, the emperor believes that it is feasible to entrust you with important tasks and promote you. But these are not the most important."
After a pause, Mai Tiezhang said: "You are knowledgeable, please tell me why the emperor arranged for you to go to Liucheng County? Why should you be thrown to the northernmost border county?"
Wang Can smiled and said: "How did I know, General, I am not a roundworm in the emperor's belly."
Mai Tiezhang said: "In the past three months, your kid has been reading books and information to understand the situation. How could I not know how much stuff you have in your stomach? Tell me how you guessed it."
Wang Can was no longer modest and said: "I guess the emperor is preparing to attack Goguryeo. So, let me take the front line and go to Liucheng County first to find out the situation of Goguryeo in Liucheng County."
"clever!"
Mai Tiezhang praised: "You boy, you are worthy of being the one chosen by the emperor."
Wang Can said: "The general is full of praise."
Mai Tiezhang said: "Speaking of it, this is an opportunity. For ordinary people, it is impossible to be promoted step by step. But it is different here. You have enough opportunities. However, this is also quite risky. Liucheng
The county is a border county and is full of dangers. You should also be careful when you go to Liucheng County."
Wang Can said: "Don't worry, General, I can save it."
Mai Tiezhang said: "Having said so much, it's good that you have an idea. Let's go and follow me into the palace. Your appointment will be made by the emperor himself. I just want you to have an idea."
Wang Can nodded, and then walked hand in hand to the palace with Mai Tiezhang. After entering the palace, Wang Can bowed to salute Yang Guang and stood obediently below.
Yang Guang admired Wang Can very much. Of course, it was Wang Can who was useful, so Yang Guang was willing to promote him. He stared at Wang Can and said in a deep voice: "About your new appointment, I guess Mai Qing has already told you. Go to Liucheng County
Taking up a position is a promotion for you, but it is also a test for you. If you cannot gain a foothold in Liucheng County, then you will face a miserable life. Of course, as long as you make achievements, it will be beneficial to my future Northern Expedition.
Goguryeo, I will not hesitate to reward you."
Wang Can said: "Your Majesty, please rest assured that I will live up to your Majesty's high expectations."
"Accept the order!"
Yang Guang waved his hand, and a servant came forward and took out the imperial edict.
Wang Can bowed and took it in his hand. When he received the imperial edict, he felt some invisible luck coming to him. However, he had never worn the Heavenly Sword on his body, so he did not know the current Qi of the sixth-rank official for the time being.
Can luck support him to break through to his current level?
After Wang Can thanked him, he stood aside again.
Yang Guang continued: "Wang Can, you want to go north to Liucheng County to take up a post. If you have any requirements, I will mention them. As long as the conditions are reasonable, I can grant it."
Wang Can said: "I take the liberty of asking the emperor to give me the Emperor's Sword, and allow me to kill first and then report. Since I want to do a big thing in Liucheng County, and it will help the emperor's crusade against Goguryeo in the future, then I may face difficulties. With the emperor's sword, I will kill first and then report."
It can be done without any disadvantage."
In fact, with Wang Can's martial arts, he is able to run rampant. But if he has the Emperor's Sword given by Yang Guang, it will be even different.
This is equivalent to Shang Fang's sword.
It has such an effect.
After hearing this, Yang Guang's eyes showed approval, because Wang Can's request was of a high standard and did not make an excessive request, but it was the request that was most beneficial to Wang Can.
"I'm sure!"
Yang Guang immediately took off his sword, handed it to the chamberlain, handed it to Wang Can, and said: "This sword is my sword, and I give it to you. You are allowed to kill it first and then show it."
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Wang Can felt completely at ease.
With the Emperor's Sword given by Yang Guang, after he arrived in Liucheng County, even a county magistrate was equivalent to a local emperor. Even the Liaoxi County Guard was inferior to Wang Can. After all, Wang Can had the Emperor's Sword in his hand.
.
This is Wang Can’s confidence.
Yang Guang said in a deep voice: "I look forward to your results, please step down!"
"I resign!"
Wang Can took the Emperor's Sword given by Yang Guang, turned around and left, and Mai Tiezhang also left with him. After the two walked out of the imperial city, Mai Tiezhang looked at Wang Can and said: "Boy Wang, please do this
The emperor's gift of the Emperor's Sword is indeed a wonderful move. But in fact, it is also a double-edged sword. You must understand that once you fail to complete the emperor's entrustment, you will ultimately fail. Then the preferential treatment the emperor gives you will cause the emperor
I am even more dissatisfied with you."
Wang Can smiled and said: "General, if you don't succeed in Liucheng County, you will be benevolent. What's more, I believe that if you go to western Liaoning to serve as the county seat of Liucheng County, there will be no disadvantages. If I serve as the county magistrate, there will be no success for the emperor."
Even with the sword in hand, if you can't break the situation and gain a foothold in Liucheng County, then you are too weak. I'm afraid it would be better to just find a piece of tofu and kill you."
Mai Tiezhang smiled and said: "You are quite courageous. I hope you can achieve something in Liucheng County."
Wang Can said: "I will definitely live up to the great general's high expectations."
The two chatted, then got on their horses and quickly returned to the military camp. After returning to the Yulin Army, Wang Can told Mai Zhongcai and Zuo Ren the news of his upcoming departure. After all, these two people were his friends.
After telling the news to the two of them, both Zuo Ren and Mai Zhongcai were filled with envy. Because in just a few months, Wang Can went from a man in white clothes to an eighth-grade general, and now he has become a general.
The sixth-grade county magistrate has simply accomplished things that countless people have been unable to achieve in their lifetimes.
This is admirable.
However, Mai Zhongcai's heart was filled with reluctance.
He had a great general like Mai Tiezhang as his father, and an official position was definitely indispensable, so he didn't care about the official position. However, he was reluctant to leave Wang Can.
Even so, Mai Zhongcai also said: "Brother Wang, when you arrive in Liucheng County, you must do your job well and not lose the face of our Yulin Army brothers."
Wang Can smiled and said: "That's natural!"
Zuo Ren also looked proud and happy for Wang Can.
After a long time, Zuo Ren and Mai Zhong left. At this time, the imperial court had already sent him the seal and ribbon for his position as the sixth-grade county magistrate, as well as his official uniform, and all the necessary items had been prepared.
After Wang Can accepted it, he arranged for soldiers to guard the entrance of the camp without disturbing him, and then took out his Heavenly Sword. When the Heavenly Sword was in his hand, Wang Can could feel the tremor of the Heavenly Sword. This was the result of the connection between Wang Can's own luck and the Heavenly Sword.
, the resonance caused.
Snapped!!
There seemed to be a muffled impact, and the sword in the sky trembled.
In an instant, a magnificent force was released from the heavenly sword. This majestic energy and blood force poured into Wang Can's body, making Wang Can's aura become more solid. (To be continued)
