Datang Nongwang

Chapter 617

The discussions in the room continued.

Gradually.

The sky is bright.

Finally, as the sky brightened, the door of the wooden house finally opened.

This also caused everyone who had been waiting outside to look at the wooden door in unison. Everyone's eyes were full of curiosity.

"Aunt Juan, Aunt Huan, then we've made a deal, you can't go back on your word. Otherwise, I won't find someone I can trust." Li Chongyuan, who came out of the wooden house, still took Chen Juan and the others with a smile. The color of respect.

Chen Juan nodded, and gently patted Li Chongyuan's head, "Don't worry, since we have promised you, we won't go back on our word. Well, the sky is already bright, and we should go. "

"You son of a bitch, remember our affairs. Don't promise to come down but not do it." Chen Huan stretched out his hand and punched Li Chongyuan.

Li Chongyuan touched the place where he was beaten, and said with a hey smile: "Aunt Juan, Aunt Huan, you can rest assured when I do things. Those people will go back within five days."

Chen Juan stretched out her hands, hugged Li Chongyuan gently, then turned her head and walked towards the bandits.

Chen Huan followed closely behind.

All the bandits greeted Chen Juan and they left Orion Village after a while.

After watching everyone leave, Li Chongyuan was extremely happy in his heart, or rather relieved and quiet.

The three discussed in the wooden house all night.

Although they were unsatisfactory at first, with the efforts of Li Chongyuan's three-inch tongue, Chen Juan and Chen Juan finally complied with Li Chongyuan's request.

Come on.

Li Chongyuan has been trying to find someone from Qingfengzhai since last year.

Not for anything else.

Whether it's just Chen Juan or Chen Huan.

The feeling they gave Li Chongyuan was absolutely believable.

Although nothing could be seen on the surface, in Li Chongyuan's heart, he thought they were very trustworthy people.

to this end.

When Li Chongyuan arrived in Huayang County this time, he heard that bandits were going to rob the county government office, and even more so after hearing that the leader of the bandits was a woman, Li Chongyuan was sure that these bandits were from Qingfengzhai.

And Li Chongyuan was not afraid of the cold, so he had to run to this mountain, in order to find Chen Juan and the two of them, and explain his thoughts to them.

Fortunately the result is good.

As for whether the two of them can fulfill Li Chongyuan's wishes in the end, it depends on how well they keep their promises.

"Xiao Langjun, I have seen that Aunt Huan, and who is that Aunt Juan? Why haven't I seen it?" Xing Ba came to Li Chongyuan's side, looking at the Qingfeng Village that had disappeared in the mountains and forests asked after everyone.

And Xiang Ba and the others also looked like curious babies, they all looked at Li Chongyuan, waiting for Li Chongyuan to give an explanation.

That is true.

As far as the people in Qingfeng Village are concerned, they are bandits.

And how Li Chongyuan colluded with bandits really made everyone curious and puzzled, and they all wanted to get the answer from Li Chongyuan.

Li Chongyuan turned around and walked towards the wooden house. As he walked, he said, "The woman who taught me that martial art is called Chen Huan, so I call her Aunt Huan. I'm sure some of you have seen her before. And that Aunt Juan , named Chen Juan, and Chen Huannai are sisters, so I call him Aunt Juan, do you understand me when I say that?"

In front of outsiders, Li Chongyuan would not call Chen Juan Auntie, only Aunt Juan.

One is to avoid suspicion, and the other is to convince everyone that Li Chongyuan has nothing to do with them.

How to put it, Chen Juan and the others are bandits, and they are also the masters of Qingfeng Village.

And Li Chongyuan is an official, and he is associated with bandits, if outsiders find out, the consequences will be unimaginable.

But the words came back again.

Just let them go, Li Chongyuan is not worried that they will tell the story.

But Li Chongyuan was really afraid that Xiang Ba and the others would tell the old lady about himself and Chen Juan. After all, Li Chongyuan had asked the old lady and others about his mother, but the old lady never told Li Chongyuan in detail, let alone He is talking about him.

But in order to make them believe what he said, Li Chongyuan put all this relationship on Chen Huan.

But when Li Chongyuan said what he said, Xiang Ba and the others were still unclear and shook their heads one after another.

"Xiao Langjun, I think they are bandits. How can you be connected with bandits, Xiao Langjun? Xiao Langjun, if others find out about this, your official career will be difficult." Ba Dao expressed his worries.

Xiang Jiu Xiang Shi also said to Li Chong Yuan: "Little Lang, we think it's better for you to meet less with them in this matter, and it's better not to have any contact with them, otherwise, something serious will happen."

"Xiao Langjun, those two women just now are absolutely extraordinary. Xiao Langjun, although I don't know what kind of relationship you have with them, but if they are bandits, Xiao Langjun really has to listen. After listening to everyone's opinions, stop interacting with them." Tang Li also suggested.

Li Chongyuan understood everyone's persuasion.

After returning to the wooden house, Li Chongyuan sat down, warmed himself by the fire and said, "I know you are worried about me. However, you should also think about it, bandits are not born bandits, who would be willing to be a bandit?" Bandits who are homeless and wandering around? Are you willing? Or are you willing to live in this mountain forest with fear every day? Presumably not. Therefore, bandits are not born, it is just that life cannot be lived , This is the grass that becomes a bandit."

"Xiao Langjun, I understand what you mean. But Xiao Langjun, you are at a very critical moment in your official career. If there are rumors that Xiao Langjun is in touch with bandits, it will definitely leave others with tongues. Xiao Langjun Sir, just listen to our persuasion and cut off contact with them." Xiang Ba continued to persuade Li Chongyuan.

Li Chongyuan exhaled softly, glanced at the crowd, and turned to Ba, "I know what I'm doing. Besides, we discussed it all night last night, and they thought they wouldn't be bandits anymore. Wait until they take their hands After the affairs in the village are dealt with, they will come to Xixiang at that time. From now on, they will become our people and will not do any more robbery."

"Besides, they promised me that as long as they have a place to stay, they will let everyone put down their swords and pick up hoes to farm. However, I told them that I will set up a fleet in the future and want to Let them manage the fleet. So, don't always call them bandits, they are just forced to."

What Li Chongyuan said was the result of a night of discussion between him and Chen Juan.

Although Chen Juan and the others firmly disagreed at first.

But Li Chongyuan used his three-inch tongue, and tried to persuade them for a long time, and the two of them relaxed a little.

And when Li Chongyuan mentioned that there are countless grains and wealth on the other side of the ocean, the two pairs of eyes of Chen Juan and the others immediately flashed golden light.

Gradually.

After Li Chongyuan described the general situation on the other side of the ocean to the two, the two became more interested, and finally nodded to Li Chongyuan.

Although Li Chongyuan didn't understand why Chen Juan and the others were always willing to occupy the mountain as king, and Li Chongyuan asked several times, but Chen Juan kept silent.

but.

Li Chongyuan had a doubt in his heart.

He wondered if Chen Juan wanted to expand her power in order to avenge her father.

Or even want to overthrow Tang State and restore her Chen State.

As for whether it is true or not, Li Chongyuan can only think about it in his heart. After all, he didn't say anything. Even if Li Chongyuan wanted to ask, he couldn't ask this question out of his mouth.

Moreover.

Chen Juan said that she was Li Chongyuan's aunt, but Li Chongyuan couldn't confirm whether her identity was true or false, no matter whether she asked many times or from others.

As for whether his grandfather is Chen Houzhu Chen Shubao, or the excuse Chen Juan and the others used to lie to Li Chongyuan, Li Chongyuan still has no way of knowing.

In short.

No matter how.

At least in Li Chongyuan's heart at the moment, Chen Juan and the others are credible and available.

There are so many people in Qingfengzhai, if they don't take advantage of them, then it's not Li Chongyuan.

Li Chongyuan's lack of people is not a lack of one person or a hundred people, but a lack of people who don't know how many people.

As Li Chongyuan said.

He built the ship for the purpose of going to the other side of the ocean to find various high-yielding crop seeds.

Ship building is already underway.

But Li Chongyuan, who runs the fleet, has not been seen yet.

Just right.

The people in Qingfengzhai can take advantage of it.

After Li Chongyuan finished talking about the future of Qingfengzhai, everyone looked at Li Chongyuan again, and there seemed to be more reverence in their eyes.

Persuading a large group of bandits to be good is not unheard of in Tang.

But Li Chongyuan did it not long after he took office as governor of Yangzhou, which made everyone feel incredible.

"Xiao Langjun, if you can persuade them to be good, that would be the best. However, regarding the matter of the fleet, I think you'd better think about it, Xiao Lang." Xiang Ba was very sure of Li Chongyuan's approach, but Regarding the matter of the fleet, he has his own worries.

Li Chongyuan cast a clear look, "I understand, and I understand. Anyway, it's still early, and the fleet hasn't been seen yet. Let's talk about it in due time. Okay, since the bandits in Huayang County The matter is settled, we should go back."

Li Chongyuan got up, and regardless of whether others had any opinions, he went out of the wooden house and was about to return to Huayang County.

After returning to Huayang County.

On the same day, Li Chongyuan and the others rented horses and rushed to Xixiang.

As soon as Li Chongyuan returned to Xixiang on the second day, he directly summoned the officials of the state government office, as well as several generals of the Tongjun Mansion.

but.

The current Tongjun Mansion is no longer called Tongjun Mansion, but Zhechong Mansion.

This year, the reorganization of the Tang military mansion has ended by this time.

Commander's Mansion was renamed Zhechong Mansion, and the original Commander's was changed to Captain Zhechong, and the generals on the left and right were changed to Captain Guoyi.

As for the grade, basically it has not been changed, and it is still the original grade.

For example, in Yangzhou, which belongs to Zhongzhou, the rank of the captain of Zhechong Prefecture is from the fourth rank, while the captain of Zhechong in Shangzhou is the upper rank of the fourth rank, and the captain of Zhechong in Xiazhou is the lower rank of the fifth rank.

However, Li Chongyuan's position as acting governor is higher than that of Captain Zhechong, so of course Li Chongyuan can summon them to discuss matters.

Li Chongyuan had met Li Chongyuan, the new captain of Zhechong of Yangzhou, but he didn't know which side he belonged to, or whose general he belonged to.

When all the officials and the generals of Zhechong Mansion arrive.

Without further ado, Li Chongyuan threw the records of the counties he inspected in the past month to everyone, "Everyone, let's take a look, this is the situation recorded by the officer in the past month of inspections in the counties." You must be aware of the overlord business in Yangyuan County, and you must have heard about the deeds of the water transport overlord in Xingdao County and Huangjin County. As for the bandits in Huayang County, my official I also believe that you must know it too. Each county has its own evil things, as officials in Yangzhou, why has no one ever done something practical for the people, is it because you are afraid of causing trouble or being killed by others?"

Li Chongyuan was very unhappy.

Among the five counties he inspected in the past month, the situation in Xixiang County in Yangzhou Prefecture was slightly better.

As for other counties, it can be said that each has its own evils.

The officials passed on what Li Chongyuan had recorded at a loss, with cold sweat hanging on their faces.

This is especially true for Zhu Shengzhi.

Before Li Chongyuan came to Yangzhou to take up the post of governor, Zhu Shengzhi could be said to be the highest official in Yangzhou.

And Li Chongyuan threw out such a large pile of records of evil deeds in various counties, in his perception, Li Chongyuan was clearly targeting him.

After Zhu Shengzhi watched Li Chongyuan's record, the cold sweat broke out on his face.

The officials were sweating coldly.

As for the generals of Zhechong Mansion, cold sweat began to break out on their heads.

Although these things have little to do with them, the bandit incident in Huayang County is what they are most afraid of and nervous about.

But then again.

If the state government doesn't raise it, it's not easy for them to send troops to Zhechong Mansion to assist or wipe it out.

But no matter what, as long as there are bandits in Huayang County, Zhechong Mansion is responsible.

not to mention.

They even knew that when Li Chongyuan was only monitoring the censor last year, he rushed to arrest Bie Jia from Yizhong Prefecture, and even got rid of a commanding officer.

visible.

As long as Li Chongyuan gets angry, the consequences are really not something they can resist, not to mention that Li Chongyuan is now the governor of Yangzhou.

Everyone looked at each other.

And Li Chongyuan also knew that after he put out these things, they, as Yangzhou officials, would definitely not dare to ask Li Chongyuan for a job.

"Everyone has read it. The official will give you time to rectify and rectify the counties and calm the resentment in the hearts of the people. If there are officials involved in this matter, let them come to the official to talk about it. If If he does not surrender himself, if the official goes down, then he will not have a good life." After Li Chongyuan gave everyone a cold look, he directly dropped these words.

Li Chongyuan's words were already very straightforward.

If the official committed a crime, he would come forward and surrender himself, and talk to Li Chongyuan well.

And Li Chongyuan's words were true, and he would let them go once in a while.

After all, it's not good for Li Chongyuan to mess up Yangzhou again.
