Commander Zhang Peng squinted his eyes and observed carefully, and said in a low voice: "This man is Wu Jian, the heroic cavalry captain of the Long Family Army."
The chief custody officer nodded and said: "Yes, that's him. I heard that he became a eunuch in the Eastern Zhou Dynasty. This is true."
The Imperial City Department collects information from all over the world, and of course they also know the information about Wu Jian in the Eastern Zhou Dynasty.
Supervisor Zhang Peng was a little surprised: "How dare this Wu Jian not even change his name?"
Hou Ping sneered and said: "He is the only one left among the 100,000 Long family troops. It doesn't matter whether he is replaced or not."
"This Long Chengen is in the Governor's Mansion. Find a way to get in."
Zhang Peng was a little embarrassed: "Everyone in the governor's office is full of thieves, so it's hard to handle."
When Hou Ping saw Wu Jian buying a bowl of wontons and going in, his eyes turned cold and he said, "People have to eat and drink."
Zhang Peng understood instantly and went to make arrangements immediately.
Hou Ping glanced at the Governor's Mansion again, turned around and blended into the crowd.
In the nearby restaurant, Wuming, the secret guard commander, was quietly watching Hou Ping blend into the crowd.
"General, they seem to be from Nanliang."
The deputy general next to him whispered.
Wuming sneered and said: "Long Chengen captured Linjiang City and Caishi City, and Nanliang hated it to the core. I guess he is from the Imperial City Division."
The deputy general asked: "Is the third prince here too?"
Wuming shook his head slightly: "Impossible, the third prince ran to the Eastern Zhou Dynasty alone, wasn't he looking for death?"
"I guess we only sent the best people from the Imperial City Division."
Wuming can tell that the other party is from the Imperial City Division, but the name and identity of the other party cannot be determined. They are all people hiding in the dark.
The lieutenant asked: "How about asking my brother to arrest one and ask questions?"
Wuming shook his head and said: "No, don't alarm them, so as not to cause bad things."
Wu Jian carried wontons into the Governor's Mansion, and the two Wuming people went downstairs, returned to another inn, and continued to plan how to kill Long Chen.
When Wuming left the restaurant, in the room opposite the inn, Feng Hezheng looked at Hou Ping and Wuming through the window gap.
Wu Jian carried a large bowl of wontons into the main hall of the Governor's Mansion and presented it to Long Chen: "Sir, wontons."
Long Chen picked up the spoon and ate half of it, and gave the rest to Zhang Qian.
Chen Zu watched Long Chen finish eating and thought to himself: Is this guy wary of us poisoning him? He didn't eat the food last night, and he won't eat today's meal either. Does he know our identities?
Long Chen glanced at Chen Zu and cursed: "Don't you know I don't eat seafood!"
Chen Zuru woke up from a dream, no wonder Long Chen didn't eat, that's why.
Some people are allergic to seafood and feel like they are poisoned after eating it. Chen Zu knows that.
"Change the dishes for the adults!"
Chen Zu immediately opened his mouth, and Long Chen scolded again: "I've finished eating, what else do you want to change?"
Chen Zu was stunned for a moment after being scolded.
We were drinking and talking to each other last night, but this is what happened today? What's going on?
Chen Zu asked timidly: "That sir?"
Wu Jian waved his hand and said: "Nothing, you go and recruit soldiers, my lord, take a rest first."
Chen Zu had no choice but to lead the people down. Long Chen arrived at the back office and sat down.
When they got outside, Chen Zu called a group of people over to discuss.
"What's going on? Why are you so angry today?"
Chen Zu felt strange. It was said that the first thing a new official did when he took office was that he had to show off his authority yesterday.
Dou Yufei also felt strange: "Last night was fine, why did it suddenly happen today? Doesn't it make sense?"
Song Tongyang, the county magistrate, said: "Why don't you ask Master Fayin?"
Chen Zu went out immediately, arrived at Xu's house, and found Monk Fayin.
"Master, that Long Chengen is wrong today."
Monk Fayin is holding a beautiful woman in his arms and learning the Zen of Joy.
"What's wrong?"
Fayin put the woman down and smiled seductively: "Go back and wait."
The woman said coquettishly: "The appearance of death."
The woman turned around and twisted the water snake's waist. Fayin couldn't help but pinch her butt again. The woman turned around and raised the silk scarf in her hand, cursed softly, then turned around and walked into the back room.
Chen Zu was stunned by the woman's charm, and stared straight at the twisting waist and hips.
"Tell me what's going on!"
Fayin said coldly.
Chen Zu came back to his senses and explained Long Chen's situation carefully. The flesh on his forehead wrinkled when Fayin heard it, and he said, "Why is this Long Cheng'en so capricious?"
"He said that pirates robbed villages and towns. It was obviously him who robbed them, but they framed us in turn. Are they blackmailing us?"
Chen Zu shook his head and said: "Master, I don't have enough brain."
Fayin stood up, patted his belly, walked a few steps in the room, and said, "I gave him the dancing girl yesterday. He seemed happy, but in the end he didn't take any of her away."
"Think about it, he's a eunuch, what's the use of a dancing girl? What else can a man do if he doesn't have a handle?"
"The only thing a man is greedy for is money and sex. If he is not greedy for sex, then he is greedy for money."
"You go back and give him some money and see what he means."
Chen Zu was a little embarrassed and said: "We are all working, so you have to ask Grandpa Sanzu before sending money."
Monk Fayin chuckled and said, "I didn't ask you to give me too much. Let me give you some to try first. If you want more, ask Third Patriarch."
Chen Zu patted his head and gave a thumbs up: "Master is still smart, I will try it right away."
When Chen Zu pushed the door open and went out, he heard the woman inside calling for the magic seal to come inside and play.
Chen Zu returned to the governor's office, where other officials were still waiting.
"What did Master Fayin say?"
Everyone gathered around.
Chen Zu said: "The master asked us to give him some money to try what he meant."
Dou Yufei said: "Didn't you say that Long Chengen doesn't accept money?"
Song Tongyang, the county magistrate, sneered: "If you don't get paid as an official, what do you do as an official?"
From ancient times to the present, there are thousands of officials. How many honest officials are there who are not interested in money?
If an official is not greedy, how can he have the money to give gifts to his superiors?
If you don't send gifts to the higher-ups, it would be strange if the people above don't kill you!
Sima Dou Yufei agreed: "I think so too, try giving him money."
Chen Zu told Tao Zhigang, the chief clerk: "Go and get 1,000 taels of silver."
Tao Zhigang went to get the money immediately.
Not long after, a small box was brought in, and Chen Zu asked the yamen servant to carry it into the back yamen.
Long Chen was leaning on the chair, Zhang Qian was standing behind him, pinching his shoulders and beating his back, and Wu Jian was teasing the maid in the back office.
Chen Zu came forward with a shy face and bowed: "Sir, I have prepared a small gift, please accept it."
I turned around to say hello, and the yamen servant came over carrying a box.
Wu Jian came over and opened the box. Inside was a bunch of white money.
Seeing Qian's eyes widen, Long Chen said with a smile: "Chen Governor is really sensible, so hurry up and stop it, don't let the Governor's heart get cold."
The knight guard stepped forward and put the box aside. Long Chen raised his eyebrows with joy and asked, "How is the recruitment outside?"
Chen Zu knew that it was impossible to recruit soldiers and horses in the city, because these people knew that the pirates could not be defeated, and if they went there, they would die.
The most important thing is that Qianjiang County is controlled by pirates. It is a big joke to recruit soldiers to kill pirates in their territory.
Chen Zupian smiled and said: "Sir, I'm afraid the effect is not very good!"
I thought that Long Chen would curse loudly, but Long Chen said in a pleasant manner: "I don't blame you, it's normal for pirates to be difficult to defeat and to recruit troops to be difficult."
"In this case, I will tell you something. If you do it well, then the pirate issue will be over. How about that?"
Chen Zu was overjoyed and said, "Sir, please tell me."
