Chapter 609: The History of Xuzhou Thorn

With Liu Zheng's concession, this time the peace talks finally reached a point where both sides could approve of it.

Then it officially entered the link of surrender.

Chen Qi and his son went out of the city to open the door, and then a group of civil and military officials from Xuzhou stood on both sides of the official road to welcome Liu Zheng's soldiers and horses into the city.

Liu Zheng let his people enter the city first, and then personally dismounted to talk to Chen Qi and his son, on the one hand, in order to let his people go to the city first to confirm whether it was safe, and on the other hand, he also wanted to get close to Chen Qi and his son.

After all, Liu Zhengda's idea was to recruit Chen Qi and his son, and it was still necessary to deal with Chen Qi and his son more.

After Xuzhou City was taken by Liu Zheng so easily, Liu Zheng asked Mi Zhu and Tai Shici to take over Xuzhou's city defense affairs on the one hand, and on the other hand, he began to tell Chen Qi and his son that they would set up a banquet in the city to invite Tao Qian's old department.

Of course, at the same time, we must also invite the principals of those big families in Xuzhou City to come out and meet, after all, in the future, this Xuzhou belongs to Liu Zheng, and Liu Zheng has to get to know these people first.

Chen Jue's father and son naturally had no opinions, and that afternoon, Xuzhou City was under the control of Tai Shici and Mi Zhu.

In the evening, Liu Zheng had already set up a banquet in the city to entertain the faces of the city.

Xuzhou is very big, and it is a state city, and there are many large and small families here, but politically, the Chen family is the strongest, and financially, it is the Mi family.

Now, Liu Zheng has received the full assistance of the Mi family, if the Chen family takes refuge in Liu Zheng, basically, Xuzhou is already Liu Zheng's.

Therefore, although this banquet seems to be a banquet for Liu Zheng to entertain celebrities from all walks of life in Xuzhou, in fact, the most important thing is that Liu Zheng just wants to win over Chen Qi and Chen Deng, father and son.

As long as Liu Zheng gets the refuge of the two of them, the entire Xuzhou family will basically not oppose Liu Zheng, and Liu Zheng will make some favors go down, and Xuzhou can be determined.

At the banquet, there were dozens of people, mainly the heads of some families, as well as Tao Qian's old department in Xuzhou.

In fact, Tao Qian's old department is not much, and those who can be trusted either died on the battlefield in Qingzhou, or there are only a few left in front of him.

Chen Deng's father and son, Zhang Min, two sons, and some less important officials.

Liu Zheng first had a delicious and delicious hospitality, and everyone was not very interested in eating and drinking, after all, they didn't come for Liu Zheng's meal, and the people who came here all wanted to know the purpose of Liu Zheng's banquet.

Liu Zheng saw that everyone was relatively silent, and he knew that they were waiting for him to speak, so Liu Zheng did not hesitate, picked up the wine glass, and began to talk about his thoughts to the family owners present.

"Everyone, I'm Liu Zheng, not the assassin of Xuzhou appointed by the imperial court, I captured Xuzhou today, I know that there must be many people who are not convinced, and even have some hatred for me in private, but I am a person, I am not a person who likes to kill, as long as you will not hinder my Liu Zheng, I have no ill will towards you, your family and property in Xuzhou, I Liu Zheng will not move, it is yours, or yours."

"Of course, if any of you still have a good impression of me Liu Zheng, you can support me, and at this point, I might as well say something clear to all of you, today, the Han family is in decline, and the Han court will come to an end sooner or later, why can't this person who ended the Han Dynasty be me?"

"I Liu Zheng maybe, one day in the future, defeated and killed, maybe one day, seize the world, let the current doll emperor Zen be located in me, if there really is one day, you are now following my people, in the future, the tide will naturally rise, this one next to me, Xuzhou Mi Zhu, the head of the family Mi Zhu, I think you are all familiar with it, I don't need to do more for him."

Liu Zheng raised the wine glass, did not drink, after speaking, glanced at Mi Zhu, Mi Zhu also stood up with interest, and smiled at all the adults present.

After all, Mi Zhu's business spreads throughout Xuzhou, and almost all major towns in Xuzhou have Mi family's business, and many small families here still have business with the Mi family in business, and some of them have already secretly invested in the Mi family.

Seeing that everyone present knew Mi Zhu, Liu Zheng continued to speak.

"Mr. Mi Zhu made it easy for me to get acquainted many years ago, and helped me recruit troops, and I have a deep friendship, over the years, but also helped me a lot in the open and secretly, so to speak, I Liu Zheng can have such a day, the Mi family has helped me a lot, so now I occupy Xuzhou, the first one to return, is the Mi family."

"I want you to announce now that Xuzhou will be managed by the Mi family Mi Zhu in the future, and he is the Xuzhou Thorn Shi I appointed."

When Liu Zheng said this, the faces of everyone present suddenly changed.

Some people are surprised, some people are frightened, some people are envious, and some people are sad.

After all, Liu Zheng's words made the Mi family, who once did not have much political status in Xuzhou, become the lord of Xuzhou, how could this not be envied by others.

Even the father and son of the Chen family, who originally had a transcendent status in Xuzhou, couldn't help but be moved after seeing Liu Zheng promise Xuzhou to Mi Zhu so easily.

Chen Jue's always steady face showed some surprise, Chen Deng was okay, he was more stable than his father, although he couldn't see surprise on his face, he could still detect some abnormalities in his eyes.

"Having said so much, in fact, everyone should understand what I mean, everyone present, if anyone is willing to take refuge in me Liu Zheng, after eating this meal, you can stay and talk to Mi Zhu well, if you are not willing to be with me Liu Zheng, I will not be reluctant, the road is facing the sky, let's go to the side."

After Liu Zheng finished speaking, he drank all the water and wine in the cup in one gulp.

Then he didn't say much, but walked to the Chen family father and son.

Liu Zheng said so much just now, in fact, it was mainly said to the Chen family father and son, the people present, everyone, Liu Zheng can do nothing, but the Chen family father and son are Liu Zheng's main targets.

"Brother Yuanlong, come, I'll toast you first."

Liu Zheng just finished drinking a glass of wine, filled himself again, and said to Chen Deng.

Chen Deng was also a little surprised by Liu Zheng's words just now, but at this time, some of them had just come to their senses and raised their glasses at Liu Zheng unhurriedly.

"Don't dare, don't dare, I'll respect the adult."

After Chen Deng finished speaking, he raised his wine glass and drank with Liu Zheng.

After drinking a glass of wine, Liu Zheng approached Chen Deng and whispered to Chen Deng.

"Brother Yuanlong, do you know what Fang just said, who am I mainly talking about?"
