Transmigration: I, the Dragon Overlord, start by protecting my beautiful bride!

Today is Long Aotian's first time working in ancient times. He walks along, stopping frequently, finding everything new and exciting.

Qianzhou City is located in the southern part of the Celestial Empire.

Good shipping, fertile land

A land of outstanding people and beautiful mountains and rivers

Countless merchants came here to do business, making it a truly prosperous Jiangnan region.

Within the city of Qianzhou,

Just as dawn was breaking, steam began to rise from the steamed bun shops along the street, and vendors, struggling to make a living, started calling out their wares along the way.

However, the people on the street completely ignored him, unlike the ordinary people in movies and TV dramas who were extremely respectful to government officials...

Especially Mr. Jin, the owner of Ruyi Restaurant. When he passed by, he actually grabbed him and asked him for yesterday's drinks. It was outrageous!

He's already dressed up in this "dog skin," so can't he at least get a free drink?!

"Sir, what happened to your face?"

Town Night Guard.

Using Shen Congxin's memories in his mind, Long Aotian found the gate of Zhenye Division, but as soon as he stepped inside, someone immediately came forward to greet him.

He instinctively stepped back warily, but the man looked at him with a puzzled expression.

"Sir, what's wrong with you?"

"You call me sir?" Long Aotian asked warily. "Then are you my underling?"

"I guess so." The man nodded, seemingly speechless.

"What's your name?"

"Jiangbeichuan."

A familiar name echoed in his mind, and Long Aotian found the figure of the energetic young man in front of him in Shen Congxin's memory.

Jiangbeichuan,

A local resident of Qianzhou City, male, 21 years old, a junior patrol officer recently recruited by the Zhenye Division, currently learning from Shen Congxin.

In the Town Night Division, those with ability have always held positions. Of course, this only applies to investigating cases. Promotion and wealth ultimately depend on having strong connections and plenty of money.

However, in the Town Night Division, each chief inspector has their own jurisdiction and is responsible for all matters, big and small, within that area. These matters are also linked to performance, and those who perform well have a greater chance of being promoted.

Whenever the Town Night Division recruits new members, these newcomers must choose to serve under a chief inspector. Some jurisdictions are more lucrative, and the chief inspector in charge of those jurisdictions will have more men under him. Or, whoever has real skills will have more men under them.

As for Shen Congxin...

He originally had two subordinates, but after Lin Boguang began to suppress him, those two subordinates immediately jumped ship to the command of other chief inspectors.

There was no other way; the Hundred Inspectors was in charge of several Chief Inspectors at the same time, and a higher rank could crush a lower one!

Apart from Jiang Beichuan, no one else in the Zhenye Division was willing to follow him.

After all, no one wants to choose a leader who offers no future and work their life away for them.

"Beichuan, you have such good taste! Choosing me as your mentor will surely lead to a bright future for you!" Long Aotian patted Jiang Beichuan's fairly sturdy shoulder, his eyes full of praise and appreciation.

“Sir, actually…” Jiang Beichuan scratched his head, hesitating to speak, “Actually, actually it’s because the positions under other chief inspectors are full, so I… If they have any openings, I still hope to be transferred to another chief inspector’s office.”

It hurts my heart, my friend.

Looking at the young man in front of him, who blinked his big, innocent eyes, Long Aotian was momentarily unsure whether to scold him or hit him...

"You look down on me?" After a long pause, he finally managed to utter this sentence.

"I..." Jiang Beichuan bowed and clasped his hands, "This subordinate dares not."

"It's alright." Long Aotian suddenly raised his hand, looked at the young man in front of him, and knew that he was not a bad person, but he was too honest, and he also lacked emotional intelligence and insight!

But it doesn't matter, he will forgive him, show his strength, and finally conquer him! He will make him willingly become his slave, working for him to the death!

"Beichuan, I'll prove it to you," Long Aotian said confidently. "Your boss is absolutely worthy of your unwavering loyalty!"

"Hey, isn't this our Southern Division's good-for-nothing Shen the coward?" Just as Long Aotian was making empty promises to his subordinate Jiang Beichuan, a burly man with a knife at his waist appeared with a group of his men.

Note:

(The Night Watch Division is further divided into the Southern and Northern Divisions. The differences between the two are not significant; the biggest difference lies in the matters and areas they are responsible for. This was mainly to prevent any single division from becoming too powerful, which is why the Northern Division was later established, and it is the Northern Division that is currently in power.)

This man's name was Wen Tao, another chief inspector under Lin Boguang, Long Aotian's superior. He usually gained his superior's favor by flattering him. When Lin Boguang was unable to do something personally due to his position, he would send this traitor.

This guy used to ridicule Shen Congxin quite a bit, even in front of newcomers, treating him as a joke and showing him no respect whatsoever.

Damn traitor!

"Chief Inspector Wen, what do you mean by that?" Jiang Beichuan looked at Wen Tao, not only without bowing, but also speaking up for Long Aotian in a very righteous manner!

This young man has guts! He's loyal! Long Aotian silently cast an approving glance at Jiang Beichuan beside him.

"What business is it of yours if you're just a newbie? Get out of my way!" Wen Tao glared at Jiang Beichuan, and then several of his men swarmed forward and surrounded him.

"Hey, don't go too far." Long Aotian looked at this scene and couldn't help but feel a little worried.

Damn it, do these people in the Night Town Guard dare to bully me so blatantly?

Shen the coward, how soft-hearted must you be to be bullied like this by these people!

"Shen, you coward, I'm here today with Lin Baixun's words." Wen Tao, looking arrogant and wielding his authority like a tiger, stood in front of Long Aotian and lowered his voice: "If you divorce your beautiful wife sooner rather than later, he might stop targeting you and even transfer you to a more lucrative place, how about that?"

"Hehe," Long Aotian snorted twice, giving a forced smile.

Before he could speak, Wen Tao leaned in, grinning lewdly, "Or, you can name a price for the brothers. Aren't you short of money? Anyway, she's down on her luck, all alone and helpless. She's not some real lady anymore. You can do whatever you want with her, right? Hahahaha!" He patted Long Aotian's chest, completely oblivious to the fact that Long Aotian's face was so dark it could practically hang on a door for protection!

"Find a time when you're not around and let the brothers have their fun," Wen Tao continued with a lewd grin. "Don't worry, after we're done, no matter how much she makes a fuss, she won't cause you any trouble. You'll get money and gain Lord Lin Boguang's favor, wouldn't that be wonderful?"

Long Aotian didn't speak, but silently pressed his shoulder, and then suddenly said, "Hey, Lord Wen, are you laughing so happily because you know your nose is going to break today?"

Wen Tao was taken aback upon hearing this, "Huh?"

"Damn it!" Long Aotian roared, gathering all his strength, twisting his waist, pushing off the ground, and without hesitation, threw a punch directly at his nose!

Before Wen Songtao could react, he let out a scream of pain and was punched to the ground by Long Aotian, falling flat on his back like a turtle.

"You...you dare to hit me?!"

"It's you I'm going to hit!"

Long Aotian spat in his face and shouted, "Just because my wife is beautiful, you dare to make a move on her? I'll be lenient by punching you! Get back here and tell Lin Boguang that I'm not afraid of him!"

Wen Tao's men helped him up from the ground. He reached out and touched his nose, but the pain made him immediately pull his hand back.

How is my nose?

"Sir, it's a little crooked..."

"what?!"

Wen Tao groaned and rubbed his nose, but then he looked at the suddenly "crazy" Long Aotian and said fiercely, "You coward Shen, you dare to hit me? Do you know the consequences!"

"You insulted my wife, I'll give you a punch, just enough to break your nose, that's too lenient!" Long Aotian said angrily. "Go back and tell Lin Boguang to stop trying to take advantage of my wife, or I'll make sure he's utterly disgraced!"

in fact,

The reason Long Aotian dared to do this was simply because he was certain that Wen Tao was a bully who preyed on the weak.

Furthermore, since they were in the wrong for stealing someone else's wife, if things escalated, not only would it look bad on them, but if Lin Boguang tried to take advantage of Shen Juanxin again, he would surely be cursed and scorned by the entire city of Qianzhou.

Wen Tao hadn't expected Shen Congxin to be so "tough" and "resolute" today! He was completely unlike the usual spineless, cowardly Shen Congxin; it was as if he were a completely different person…
