Chapter 3442 Extra Story 22

Zhou Man sat at the table and asked them, "What name do you think I should choose?"

Bai Shan: "Thursday?"

Zhou Man turned to look at him.

Bai Shan spread his hands and said: "This name is the most appropriate. You are good at eight, but it is very different from the previous name. Others will not easily think of you."

Zhou Man hesitated, "I don't think it sounds good. You are a scholar after all, so can't you come up with a better alias?"

Yin Ru said: "I think it sounds nice, maybe it's not graceful enough, so I'll call it Zhou Ba Niang?"

Zhou Man: ...It feels even worse.

Bai Erlang and Ming Da also echoed, "This name sounds nice."

Zhou Man looked at them suspiciously, and in the end, they succeeded in deciding on the name with more wins.

Early the next morning, Zhou Man and the others were not in a hurry to go to the chief's mansion, but went to the morning market first, and after eating the special breakfast food here, they wandered towards the chief's mansion under the guidance of the guide .

The chief is the leader of the Liaozi tribe, but there are many tribes under the Liaozi tribe, not only the Liao people, but also the Pu people. There are many tribes and different nationalities.

The chief is the big leader elected by each tribe. It is said that they are elected, but in fact they are selected. Generally, the patriarch of the largest tribe of the Liaozi tribe is elected. After fighting for the position, it is reported to the court and sealed by the emperor.

And the mansion here is naturally also the residence of the sealed leader, Bai Shan said to them: "After our dynasty quelled the rebellion in various places, the Liaozi Department surrendered to our Jin Dynasty, but the internal struggle is still fierce. The head of the Liaozi Department has changed seven."

Zhou Man couldn't help being surprised, "This speed is almost four times faster than ours. Now this leader, I vaguely remember that it was changed three years ago?"

At that time, the matter was quite big, and it was discussed several times at the court meeting, so Zhou Man also listened to it, but he didn't understand enough.

"Yes, and they are not from the same family. There are three tribes and four families in total. The current chief was 'selected' by the tribes three years ago."

The guide couldn't help but look at Bai Shan, he didn't expect him to understand it in such detail.

Before arriving at the place, the guide whispered: "The grandfather of this new chief was once also a leader, the first leader of the Liaozi Department after he surrendered to us, but he was killed within two years. , his son was also killed. At that time, the new chieftain was only twelve years old, and he took away a tribe and hid in the mountains. Only then did he escape, but he did not expect that he would bring that tribe back to the tribe. Not only snatched the tribe from the other hand, but also launched a rebellion to kill the previous leader, and was elected as the new leader.”

The guide whispered: "So this chief is ruthless, it's better for the nobles to be humble, so as not to conflict with him."

In fact, the guide didn't want to have an intersection with the chief, who was moody, who knew what would happen?

Zhou Man nodded and said, "We will be careful."

But she turned her head and asked Bai Shan, "Since he is a rebellious leader, why did His Majesty seal him up so quickly?"

She vaguely remembered that there seemed to be a quarrel at the Dachao meeting, but she was going to the military for technical exchanges, so she didn't pay attention to it.

Guide: ...What do you call being careful? And this question is asking, can Mr. Bai Lang know what the emperor thinks?

Bai Shandao: "He didn't kill the previous leader Zhang Teng immediately, but reported to the court that Zhang Teng had embezzled the tributes to our dynasty in the name of the lack of revenue from the Liaozi Department in the past few years, and embezzled the tributes to enjoy the extravagance. Then send all the things in Zhang Teng's warehouse to Dajin to make up for the tribute."

Zhou Man raised his eyebrows.

Bai Shan said with a smile: "He is respectful to the king, and grandfather was the first leader of my dynasty, so he is considered orthodox, so His Majesty forgives his self-assertion."

To put it bluntly, the emperor did not think that killing Zhang Teng and replacing it was a rebellion, but made his own claim, so he was not a rebellion.

For this kind of vassal state and Jimi state, all the court wants is an attitude.

As long as they don't betray the Great Jin and respect the Great Jin enough, the Great Jin will not interfere in their internal government affairs, and whoever has the ability will be in power.

Unless the orthodox party asks Da Jin for help.

Since Zhang Teng did not ask the court for help, or did not have time, and the succeeding leader respected Da Jin enough, the court would turn a blind eye and let it go.

The guide looked at Bai Shan in surprise, how could this be true?

Only then did Zhou Man remember to ask, "What's the chief's name?"

"Single name has a righteous character, and His Majesty bestows the country's surname on him."

It's called Li Yi, Zhou Man clicked his tongue twice in his heart, it seems that the emperor really likes him, otherwise he wouldn't have given him a national name.

Zhou Man muttered: "Why don't I know anything?"

Bai Shan smiled and said: "The matter of the Liaozi Department started suddenly and ended quickly. You were not in Beijing at the time, so you didn't know it was normal."

While talking, the group of people arrived at the gate of the chief's mansion. Bai Shan asked the guards to knock on the door, and he said to the guide, "No matter who asks, we are all scribes who come here to travel and do business. The lady is proficient in medical skills, and when she heard that the chief's wife was ill, she came here to offer a prescription, and she was just asking for some convenience in the chief's office in the future."

This is a reasonable thing, the guide hurriedly responded, but he was still a little nervous, "Is Mrs. Zhou really proficient in medical skills?"

She knows medical skills, they have a faint feeling, after all, she has dug and processed medicinal herbs along the way, but she is proficient in...

Bai Shandao: "Anyway, she knows the principles of medicine, as long as she doesn't reveal her secrets."

The wizard can only answer.

The door opened, and two servants came out. The guide hurried forward to communicate. The servant stood on the steps, looked down at Zhou Man, frowned and asked, "Seeing that you are young and a woman, are you really proficient in medical skills?"

Hearing what he said, Zhou Man became happy, "That's natural, don't you know, there are many women studying medicine in the Central Plains."

The servant curled his lips and said, "Of course we know, but that's a student of the Imperial Medical Office, what has it to do with you?"

He frowned at Zhou Man, not very happy to recommend him, so he said, "There are too many of you."

Bai Shan immediately said: "They are just our friends, they are not at ease, so come over to have a look. In fact, it is only the two of us who want to see a doctor."

The servant frowned a little, "You also know medicine?"

Bai Shan glanced at Zhou Man and said with a smile: "We are from the same school, and I also know a little bit about medicine."

This sentence is true before and after, but together it is half-truth and half-false.

Zhou Man lowered his head slightly, not letting the servants see the smile on his face.

Bai Erlang and the others felt that Bai Shan was too bad, deliberately misleading others.

But here, Bai Shan is obviously easier to win people's trust than Zhou Man, and people believe in Bai Shan's medical skills, so the servant let the two of them in after weighing it up.

Only let the two of them go in.

There is only one update today, see you tomorrow
