Chang'an is the capital of the Zhou Dynasty.
The official rank of the Chang'an County Magistrate is higher than that of the ordinary seventh-rank county magistrate, ranking in the fifth rank.
After all, he is the county magistrate of the imperial capital.
The authority is greater.
"However, a position like Chang'an County Magistrate is at the feet of the emperor, and there are powerful people coming and going. It is extremely difficult for a mere fifth-grade county magistrate to gain a foothold in Chang'an.
If you¡¯re not careful, you¡¯ll offend someone you can¡¯t afford to offend.
Therefore, most of the county magistrates of Chang'an did not stay long, either because they caused people to be demoted, or to be transferred to other places, or to be relegated. Officials who can smoothly leave Chang'an are considered to have backgrounds. There are very few people who can actually be promoted to the position of Chang'an County Magistrate, almost rare.
The current magistrate of Chang'an is named Zhao Yan.
Zhao Yan himself did not have a good background, he was just from a prominent family in Kuaiji County. However, Zhao Yan was very lucky. When he was studying in the Imperial College, he was appreciated by Wu Zongxiao, now the Minister of Rites, and married Wu Zongxiao's daughter.
With this relationship, Zhao Yan could serve as the magistrate of Chang'an County.
And has been in office for more than two years.
According to Wu Zongxiao's consideration, after the emperor's birthday, he suggested to the prince that Zhao Yan should be transferred to the court as an official and no longer serve as the Chang'an County Magistrate. After all, as the magistrate of Chang'an County, you may face risks at any time.
On this day, Zhao Yan was handling government affairs in the study.
Zhao Yan is very capable.
Being able to serve as the head of a county and the magistrate of Chang'an County requires some ability. But he also knew that there were powerful people coming and going under the feet of the Emperor of Chang'an, many of whom he couldn't afford to offend, so he handled government affairs cautiously.
Strive to ensure that no one is offended.
Even if you want to offend, you will offend someone from King Qi's lineage.
He can¡¯t control the people at the lowest level.
When Zhao Yan was dealing with government affairs, suddenly, there was a knock on the door outside the study. The attendant entered, bowed and said: "Your Majesty, a group of Huns came from outside the county government office, saying they want justice."
"What, the Huns are coming?"
Zhao Yan raised his brows, and a solemn look appeared on his elegant face.
The emperor¡¯s birthday is coming soon. If the Huns come to the county government to file a complaint at this time, there must be something involved. Once the Huns are angered, there will be unpleasantness. It would be bad if the incident spread to the court and even affected the emperor's mood.
During this period of time, Zhao Yan had already arranged for people to send out words, asking the people of Chang'an to be careful and not to offend the Xiongnu, Xianbei, and other envoys from the Western Regions who gathered in Chang'an.
If possible, try not to provoke him.
Got into a lot of trouble.
Fortunately, nothing happened during this period. Unexpectedly, Zhao Yan was cautious in everything, but something happened. Zhao Yan was angry, but he did not dare to delay. He ordered people to invite the Huns to the hall.
Zhao Yan also changed his clothes, put on official uniform, and followed him to the hall.
When he entered the hall, Uwe and others had already arrived.
When Uwei saw Zhao Yan, holding his head high, waving his finger and pointing at Punu and the two guards, he sternly scolded: "County Magistrate Zhao, I am the official envoy of the Xiongnu mission, the right virtuous king of the Xiongnu, Uwei. This is my second son, the Great Chanyu of the Xiongnu, Prince Punu."
"Punu is the deputy envoy of the mission. Look at what he looks like now. How was he beaten?"
"Is this the etiquette of the Great Zhou Dynasty?"
"I brought the envoy to Chang'an to congratulate the Emperor of Zhou on his birthday. But the people of Zhou were too arrogant. Not only did they beat me, the Hun prince, but they also broke the arms of the prince's followers and crushed their finger bones. Even broken ribs.¡±
"He is so vicious and evil and must be severely punished."
Uwe held his head high, his eyes were sharp, and he said fiercely: "If you don't give me an explanation for this matter, I will never give up. I, the Huns envoy, would rather die than die, but also want justice."
Zhao Yan¡¯s expression changed drastically.
He is not a person without eyesight. The bright red fingerprints on Pu Nu¡¯s face, the cheeks as red and swollen as a pig¡¯s head, and the gaping mouth that leaked air, made his scalp numb just by looking at it.
Thinking about it makes me feel pain.
Zhao Yan saw the hanging arm of Pu Nu's guard again, his clothes were stained with blood, and his expression was painful and ferocious. Seeing this scene, Zhao Yan couldn't help but shudder.
The arm was abruptly broken.
The phalanges of the five fingers were all pinched off.
How cruel!
Zhao Yan withdrew his gaze and said solemnly: "King Youxian, who is so bold to bring Prince Pu Nu to justice?"?? and the personal entourage of Prince Punu were beaten like this. Specifically, what happened. "
Uwe explained: "The general story is that Prince Punu took his personal entourage to the border of Chang'an. When passing by Shangyuan Village on the eastern border of Chang'an, it was almost noon and he went to the village to have dinner."
"While eating, I saw a woman in the village who was talking well, so I asked her some information."
Uwe looked angry and said: "Prince Punu was talking to a woman. Unexpectedly, a group of people came out of the village. A man named Wang Qi took the lead and beat Prince Punu. He also beat the prince's followers to death. Seriously injured."
Zhao Yan frowned.
He didn¡¯t believe the so-called eating in the village or the so-called conversation. It was definitely Pu Nu who went to rob the woman.
He has long heard about Pu Nu robbing people.
It¡¯s just that Uwe said this in order to confuse right and wrong.
Zhao Yandao: "Prince Pu Nu, who are Wang Qi? Are they people living in Shangyuan Village?"
Pu Nu shook his head and said: "They are not from the village. They are guests in Shangyuan Village. They are coming to Chang'an. Magistrate Zhao, you must give me an explanation. Otherwise, I will not let you know what happened today." Never give up.¡±
Uwe also said: "Yes, I must give an explanation to the Huns."
Zhao Yan was relieved in his heart. At least he was not a powerful person, but someone who came to Chang'an. If he was from Chang'an and dared to take action against the Huns, he was most likely a powerful person.
He cannot afford to offend such a person.
Zhao Yan¡¯s mind was spinning and he asked, ¡°King Youxian, how do you plan to arrange it?¡±
Uwei said in a deep voice: "Wang Qi was able to overthrow Prince Punu's personal guards, and his strength is not simple. Therefore, the county government must send troops to capture him. Of course, I will also personally go to help."
After a pause, Uwe continued: "Now that Prince Punu has returned first, it is expected that Wang Qi, a ruthless man, is already on his way to Chang'an. Please ask County Magistrate Zhao to immediately mobilize troops and horses to the east gate of Chang'an to stop Wang Qi. A group of people, arrest them all and bring them to justice."
Zhao Yandao: "I will give you the order right now."
Immediately, Zhao Yan issued an order to mobilize the yamen servants of Chang'an County to assemble, and then left the east gate of the county yamen path.
Uwe and Pu Nu also followed.
The group of people arrived at the city gate and waited quietly.
Pu Nu waited for a while, feeling a little impatient, and said: "King Youxian, Wang Qi must have entered the city."
"How could it be so fast?"
Uwe shook his head and said: "You have just returned to the city, and you found Magistrate Zhao to take action when you came back. They are staying in the village, there must be follow-up arrangements, and they cannot arrive so soon. Don't worry, the person who hurt you , can¡¯t escape.¡±
Pu Nu nodded and waited quietly.
After waiting for another two-quarters of an hour, I saw two carriages appearing on the official road ahead, driving towards them. When Pu Nu left Shangyuan Village, he saw two carriages at the entrance of the village. Now when he saw them, he immediately said: "Here they are, those two carriages."
Zhao Yan also cheered up.
He was even more angry in his heart. Why did he provoke the Huns?
It even involved him.
Zhao Yan felt unhappy and wanted to punish him severely. He waved his hand and ordered: "Come on, stop the people in those two carriages and bring them over."
"yes!"
After receiving the order, the yamen officer rushed forward quickly. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com - Didn't finish reading?
