Planting a fairy in ancient times

Chapter 69 69. A Father-Son Conversation
Wang Butou is good at martial arts and has been a headhunter in Changzhou County Government for more than 20 years.

Originally, according to the normal procedure, Wang will be a headhunter for at most two years, and he will also step down from his position as a headhunter.

But now, Wang Butou is retiring due to disability, how does this make Chen Daniu feel better?

"Qingfeng, it's not easy to catch heads! Why don't you tell the county magistrate that your martial arts is not good enough, so you can just be an ordinary yamen servant." Chen Daniu persuaded.

"Father, no, I have already agreed to the magistrate." Chen Qingfeng lowered his head and said embarrassedly.

This time sending the nobleman back to Beijing is a good opportunity for Chen Qingfeng.

It's rare that the county magistrate values ​​it, so Chen Qingfeng must agree to it!

Besides, being a headhunter is as dangerous as being a government servant!It's just that under the governance of County Magistrate Zou, Changzhou County has always had good law and order.

The experience of arresting the three Jiangyang robbers that day left Chen Qingfeng with lingering fears.If one of the Jiangyang thieves hadn't been injured, Catcher Wang would have been more than just injured.

"Alas~! This... this... if something really happens, what should your mother and I do!" Seeing that the matter had been decided, Chen Daniu was a little anxious.

Chen Daniu sent Chen Qingfeng to the county government office to work as a servant, because Chen Qingfeng liked to dance knives and sticks since he was a child, and he learned martial arts well.Secondly, it is indeed like a way out.

Both Chen Qingfeng and Chen Qingluan couldn't study well.After a hundred years from Chen Daniu, it is still unknown who will take the position of Li Zheng!With Chen Qingfeng, a yamen servant, intimidating, the new Lizheng will not do anything to their Chen family.

But now, Chen Daniu heard about the injury and disability of Wang Butou, and felt a bit of regret in his heart for sending Chen Qingfeng to work as a government servant.

"Father, don't worry, I won't let anything happen to me." Chen Qingfeng pretended to say something relaxed, so that Chen Daniu's heart would be at ease.

After Chen Daniu was silent for a while, he had no choice but to temporarily put his worries behind him.

Now that Chen Qingfeng has agreed to County Magistrate Zou, he must not go back on his word, otherwise, Chen Qingfeng will lose his current job as a yamen servant, not to mention his promotion.

Mr. Guan, Mr. Guan, you don't just listen to the prestige.

If Chen Qingfeng dared to refute the face of County Magistrate Zou, it would be very easy for County Magistrate Zou to punish a small yamen servant.

"What is the background of this Jiangyang thief? Has he been caught?" Chen Daniu thought for a while and asked.

"It seems to be from the Northern Wei Dynasty. One died, one was seriously injured, and was carried away by the other. Those gangsters uttered a few gibberish words before they escaped. None of us yamen servants could understand them. I understood a few sentences, and said it was Northern Wei dialect." Chen Qingfeng explained.

"Hiss~!" Chen Daniu gasped.

The Northern Wei Dynasty is in the north, and Pingjiang Mansion is in the east.

It stands to reason that people from the Northern Wei Dynasty had committed crimes in the capital, and as long as they fled all the way north, they could return to the Northern Wei Dynasty in the shortest possible time.

But these Northern Wei people actually ran eastward to Pingjiang Mansion, Chen Daniu had a bad feeling in his heart.

"Qingfeng, have you heard from the county magistrate why people from the Northern Wei Dynasty came here?" Chen Daniu asked.

Chen Daniu suspected that these Northern Wei people came to Changzhou County on purpose.If this is the case, aren't they dangerous?
"The people in the Northern Wei Dynasty seemed to want a large ransom, so they wanted to capture some nobles and go outside the Great Wall. As a result, as soon as a nobleman was captured, a team of experts were sent from the capital to intercept them. The Northern Wei people were defeated, so they fled to us. Changzhou County is here." Chen Qingfeng hesitated and said.

"So it's like this!" Chen Daniu breathed a sigh of relief.

"Father, I also accidentally overheard the magistrate and the master talking about this, so don't tell it." Chen Qingfeng confessed worriedly.

"Okay, I know. I just want to ask for clarification. Be more at ease. People in the Northern Wei Dynasty are very fierce. If they target our Changzhou County, the consequences will be disastrous!" Chen Daniu said with emotion.

More than 100 years ago, people from the Northern Wei Dynasty entered the pass to rob.Changzhou County was also plundered by the Northern Wei people.

Chen Daniu heard from Grandpa Zeng that people in the Northern Wei Dynasty were physically strong and strong, and of course, had a fierce temper.

People in the Northern Wei Dynasty lived on horseback for a long time, entering villages to plunder, not only asking for money, but also killing all the people in the village.

Chen Daniu still remembers that when his great-grandfather talked about people from the Northern Wei Dynasty, his eyes were full of fear.

Chen Daniu was really afraid that the Northern Wei people were coming for Changzhou County.

"Father, don't worry, our Xuanyuan Dynasty has strong soldiers and horses, and there is a [-] army garrisoned by Marquis Dingbei in the north. The army of the Northern Wei Dynasty wants to enter the pass? Impossible." Chen Qingfeng said.

In the north of the Xuanyuan Dynasty, there are many lofty mountains.People from the Northern Wei Dynasty had to pass through the steep Tianmen Pass to enter the pass.

People in the Northern Wei Dynasty lived in a bitterly cold place, and their lives were difficult. Half a year out of a year, they were fighting for their lives with God.

Therefore, the birth rate of babies in the Northern Wei Dynasty was not high, and the average life expectancy was only more than 40 years old.It is far less than the average life expectancy of the people of the Xuanyuan Dynasty, which is 55%.

All the people of the Northern Wei Dynasty, together with the old and the weak, women and children, numbered no more than one hundred thousand.

And the person stationed at Tianmen Pass all year round is none other than Ouyang Ye, Marquis of Dingbei, who is known as the "Military God".Ouyang Ye is thirty this year and is the most trusted person of Emperor Tianjing.

Ouyang Ye has guarded Tianmen Pass for more than ten years.

Before Ouyang Ye, it was Ouyang Ye's father and grandfather Ouyang Yu who were guarding Tianmen Pass.The Ouyang family is one of the four great ministers of the Xuanyuan royal family.

In the early days of the Xuanyuan Dynasty, there were four great ministers beside the Immortal Lord Shenmu, namely Dongfang, Ouyang, Shangguan, and Duanmu.

It can be said that for nearly a thousand years, the Xuanyuan Dynasty has been able to stand upright, and it has a great relationship with the four great ministers.

When Chen Qingfeng mentioned Marquis Dingbei, Chen Daniu couldn't help but nodded, and said, "That's right, with Marquis Dingbei here, the people of the Northern Wei Dynasty are really sad to close the gate of heaven."

Chen Qingfeng saw that his father was no longer entangled with the Northern Wei people's affairs, so he quickly changed the subject: "Father, it will take me about a month before I can return home. Brothers Huang and Zizhen and Zimu will bring trouble to parents." I took care of it."

Chen Qingfeng wasn't at home, so he didn't plan to take Huang Yuejiao, mother and son back to the county to live.

The cost of living in the county is high, and there is no adult male in the family, so it is not very safe.Let Huang Yuejiao and her two sons live in Xinghua Village, so Chen Qingfeng can rest assured.

"What's the matter? My grandson and my daughter-in-law, how could your mother and I not take care of them?" Chen Daniu waved his hand and said.

"Father, is there anything you want? I'll go to the capital this time and buy it for you." Chen Qingfeng asked.

"What to buy? I don't lack anything at home." Chen Daniu thought for a while, and said uneasy: "It's a long way to go to the capital. Qingfeng, you should ask the noble people for their opinions when you encounter problems, don't be exhausted yourself. to be blamed."
