Chapter 1416 Recruitment contest
In addition to accommodating the members of the castellan's family, the guards also live in the castellan's mansion on weekdays.
So, the city lord's mansion is very large, and the school grounds for the training of the guards are naturally also very large, so they can accommodate many people.
The former head of Yancheng was Xie Hong, who was also the former head of the Xie family, and the current head of the Xie family and the current head of Yancheng was Xie Hong's wife, Liao Qingyuan.
In the Kingdom of Xia, each city has a guard army, which is managed by the lord of each city.
And this city owner has always been selected by the leader of the Changying Army from among the heads of the big families in each city.
Once selected, the family has the right to manage a city, but also has the additional responsibility of guarding a city.
Once the selection of the city owner is decided, the next city owner will also be selected from the family, and the new owner of the family will be the new city owner.
Therefore, the selection of the head of the family not only requires the support of the family, but also requires the consent of at least three of the four leaders of the Changying Army before taking office.
If the family insists on choosing someone who does not meet the leaders of the Changying Army as the head of the family, the Changying Army will choose a new city owner from other families.
In addition, if the city lord makes a mistake, the leader of the Changying Army has the right to abolish his position as the Patriarch and the city lord. Similarly, the abolition order also requires the consent of at least three leaders.
Three years ago, during the battle with the Tongtian Sect, Xie Hong, the former head of the Xie family, passed away.
After Xie Hong's death, the Yancheng Guards lost their leader for a while. After the four of Su Yunling discussed it, they decided to let his wife Liao Qingyuan temporarily act as the city lord.
Unexpectedly, Liao Qingyuan's management ability was not inferior to Xie Hong's at all, so Liao Qingyuan was the city lord for three years.
Currently, except for some members of the Xie family who are not satisfied with the female head of the family, Su Yunling and others are very satisfied with the city lord.
Although Liao Qingyuan is a woman with a foreign surname, she is Xie Hong's wife and a member of the Xie family, so the mansion of the city lord in Yancheng is still the residence of the Xie family.
The recruiting competition was also set at Xie's house.
Su Yunling has some business to deal with, so he will be here later, so it was Tang Yichen who brought Gu Zhiqi to the City Lord's Mansion.
It was almost nine o'clock when the two arrived at Xie's house. Because it was the first day of the competition, there was a kick-off ceremony, and the big competition didn't start until ten o'clock, so the big competition hasn't officially started yet.
As soon as the two of them entered the city lord's mansion, someone greeted him and chatted with Tang Yichen.
Gu Zhiqi saw a group of people approaching, immediately stepped aside and stood aside.
Seeing this, Tang Yichen immediately took a look at her, and saw Gu Zhiqi leaning on a pillar beside him, with an expression of "You are busy, I will wait here for you".
Thus, Tang Yichen planned to chat with these people for a while before finding a chance to slip away, otherwise, when he left, these people were designated to follow him.
The location where Tang Yichen was besieged was not far from the gate, but anyone who just entered the gate could see Tang Yichen at a glance.
Patriarch Yu saw Tang Yichen as soon as he entered the gate.
Patriarch Yu paused, then straightened his face immediately, and glanced sideways at Yu Hanxing, "It's Tang Yichen, let's go, I'll take you there to meet him."
Yu Hanxing heard the words, his eyes moved slightly, and then stepped up to follow Patriarch Yu.
Yu Weiyin on the side saw this, and immediately stepped up to keep up.
Tang Yichen was surrounded by people, he didn't know whose question to answer, when suddenly someone broke through the crowd and came to him.
"Fourth Master, long time no see."
As the sound fell, the surroundings were quiet for a few seconds, and then others looked at Patriarch Yu.
When the group saw Patriarch Yu, they subconsciously took a few steps back, and then greeted him one after another.
Tang Yichen naturally knew Patriarch Yu, nodded slightly to him, and politely replied, "Patriarch Yu, long time no see."
Patriarch Yu stretched out his hand and tugged at Yu Hanxing, signaling him to greet Tang Yichen.
Of course, Yu Hanxing didn't move, and Patriarch Yu glanced at him, only to realize that Yu Hanxing was staring straight at a certain direction. Following his gaze, Patriarch Yu saw a very delicate and beautiful girl.
Patriarch Yu frowned slightly.
Good night
