Chapter 346 2 forces
That is, if they could unite with Qin Zhongting and bind themselves together with Wang Tianlong's Embroidered Uniform Guard, then the two forces could be combined and possibly contend with Wei Zhongxian. Otherwise, if the two forces develop independently, they will never be able to defeat Wei Zhongxian.
However, this was only Chen Er's own idea. After all, this was the most crucial moment, and Chen Er was afraid of saying the wrong thing. So, after becoming a general, Chen Er had his own government office, which made him particularly happy.
What Chen Er really enjoys is that Qin Luoshen has also moved from Qin Zhongting's government office to this place. However, Qin Luoshen still lives alone. According to Qin Luoshen, she is here to watch over Chen Er and prevent him from flirting with other girls.
This left Chen Er feeling quite helpless, as he wasn't that kind of person at all. However, the next morning, he suddenly heard the sound of gongs and drums outside his government office, which annoyed him greatly.
Because Chen Er loved taking a nap, he was clearly enraged by the noise outside. After getting up and washing up, he saw Ma Dazhi running out angrily, which surprised Chen Er.
"Ma Dazhi, who is making such a racket outside? Why are they disturbing my rest?"
Chen Er asked Ma Dazhi helplessly, his face contorted: "Boss, ever since these people heard that you became a first-rank official, they've all come to complain. I've encountered several this morning, but I've chased them all away."
Chen Er then waved his hand, saying that if being an official didn't mean serving the people, he would rather not be a first-rank official. "Father, I already had someone chase him away," Ma Dazhi said. After Ma Dazhi finished speaking, he saw anger on Chen Er's face and said helplessly.
"Just wait for me upstairs at the government office. I'll find the person you need and see what happened."
After Ma Dazhi finished speaking, he walked out. Just then, Qin Luoshen walked in with a cup of tea.
"Chen Er, being an official in the imperial court is not like going to the battlefield to kill people. There are many details that you need to pay attention to."
"I've seen many good officials ruined by treacherous villains, so I'm still worried about you. I don't know if it was right or wrong to let you serve in the imperial court."
Chen Er showed a dismissive expression, and then he put his arm around Qin Luoshen's slender waist.
"Yes, madam, I know what to do, don't worry. But in my eyes, if I don't do something for the people, I'd rather not be an official in the court. I feel uncomfortable all over. It's much more comfortable to go to the battlefield."
Qin Luoshen's face showed a strange expression: "Chen Er, what did you just say? Who exactly is Madam? Could she be your sweetheart? Tell me quickly, how far have you and this Madam progressed?"
Now things are really messed up. Chen Er is probably in deep trouble, and Qin Luoshen even pulled his ear up, making him wince in pain. Just then, Ma Dazhi's shouts came from outside the door.
"Boss, I've already called over the people who were banging drums and gongs outside. I need to find out what's going on first. You guys continue."
After Ma Dazhi finished speaking, he turned and left, leaving Chen Er and Qin Luoshen speechless with a helpless smile. When Chen Er arrived at the government office, he immediately saw an old man with a bruised and swollen face, holding a wooden stick in one hand and a washbasin in the other.
It seems that the noisy noise outside just now came from this old man.
"Old man, why were you calling for people outside the door this morning? Tell me quickly, and I will definitely stand up for you if it is within my power."
The old man recognized Chen Er and was completely stunned by Chen Er's youthful appearance, because these common people had never seen such a young first-rank official before. At that moment, the old man knelt on the ground and began to tremble.
"My lord, you must do justice for me! My son was beaten to death, and the assailant even tried to take my daughter-in-law away. You must seek justice for me."
Upon hearing the old man's words, Chen Er's eyes snapped open, and he immediately shouted for someone to slam their fist on the table and stand up.
"Tell me the name of the bastard who did this. Ma Dazhi, bring your men and bring that guy here. I want to see what kind of guts this guy has to not only kill an old man's son in broad daylight, but also keep him and try to take his daughter-in-law."
Chen Er was truly furious. Although someone had become so arrogant, Chen Er wanted to see who was so disrespectful. As the saying goes, a new broom sweeps clean, and Chen Er was determined to give them a good beating this time.
The old man then said with a hint of fear, "This man is called Wang Dawei, and I heard he is Sun Yunhe's cousin. I have already reported him to the local authorities, but no one dares to touch Wang Dawei, so I came here to plead my case."
"I heard you're a good new official, so I came here. I wonder if you can help me catch Wang Dawei."
Chen Er was a little surprised, and then looked at the old man and asked, "You mean you've already reported it to the authorities in the area, but no one dares to mess with Wang Dawei?"
Chen Er felt that the name Sun Yunhe sounded somewhat familiar. Then it dawned on him what had happened. It turned out that Wang Dawei was abusing his power because of his relationship with Sun Yunhe, which had nearly made Chen Er vomit blood.
Chen Er hadn't expected that, being so far from the emperor's reach, these people would be so arrogant. Chen Er was truly furious.
"I want to see which county magistrate is so brazen as to break the law. What's the point of being an official if you don't stand up for the people?"
After Chen Er finished speaking, he looked directly at Ma Dazhi, who was waiting behind him: "You hurry up and take your men to arrest this Wang Dawei, or even the local magistrate. I want to see who has such a big hand, yet does nothing for the people."
Moreover, just now, Chen Er learned something even more infuriating from the old man: the local magistrate had arrested Zhang Dawei, but the very next day, he released Zhang Dawei without charge.
