Along the way, Chen Xiaoting was full of excitement and expectation.
Although he had only been away from Guangde for more than two months, he felt as if he had been away for two years. What worries him the most is the home in the city.
I don't know if my parents are in good health, are you worried about him? I don't know if my younger brothers and sisters are good, do they serve their parents well? Chen Xiaoting's mind was full of these questions.
And Gao Shijie, who was sitting in the prisoner car, was a little embarrassed at this time, and his hair was messy, and he no longer looked like a tall man before.
But he is the king of the White Lotus Sect, and Gao Shijie was strictly guarded along the way, on the one hand, to prevent someone from robbing the prison, and on the other hand, to prevent Gao Shijie from committing suicide.
The speed of their journey was not slow, and they entered the city of Guangde at noon on the third day, and the group of people aroused the crowd to watch.
At this time, Gao Shijie was covered with cloth, and people outside could not see his face, so passers-by along the way guessed his identity.
But when entering the city, the brocade guards were all wearing official uniforms, and the people were curious in their hearts, and they didn't dare to approach the onlookers.
After entering the city, Zhang Zhenshan led the team directly to the Yamen of the hundred households, and went to Taixi to complete the task, and he had to go to the errand first.
No one said anything from the lieutenants, in essence, the escort mission was not completed, unless Gao Shijie had been imprisoned in the Yamenli Prison of the Hundred Households.
After Zhang Zhang Zhenshan and his entourage entered the yamen of the hundred households, all affairs were carried out in an orderly manner.
Only Chen Xiaoting didn't know what to do, and there were no acquaintances in the yamen.
Zhang Zhenshan rushed directly to the lobby of the hundred households, and Zhou Wenzhu of the hundred households must be there today, waiting for Zhang Zhenshan to report the situation.
Although the task was completed this time, many people on Jinyiwei's side were injured, and even a captain and five errand officers died, Zhang Zhenshan's report was not as easy as he imagined.
Chen Xiaoting had nothing to do, and after thinking about it, he found that the only person who could find the person to speak was Zheng Jian, who was in charge of the warehouse, so Chen Xiaoting went directly to the warehouse.
It happened that Zheng Jian was sorting out the accounts in the warehouse, and his eyes widened when he saw Chen Xiaoting coming back, and then he hurried over and said, "Why did you come back?" ”
Zhang Zhenshan had just come back with the team, and Zheng Jian didn't know what happened to Taixi, so he was so surprised.
Chen Xiaoting said with a smile: "Uncle Zheng, what are these words, anyway, I am also from the yamen, why can't I come back hungry?" ”
Speaking of this, Chen Xiaoting also said half-jokingly: "Maybe I'll come back this time, and I won't leave!" ”
Zheng Jian looked at Chen Xiaoting like a madman, thinking that Chen Xiaoting wanted to go crazy when he wanted to come back.
He had learned from Chen Dayong, and knew that the Chen family and the small flag official Wang Youtian had a lot of grievances, and it was difficult for Chen Xiaoting to come back.
Anyway, when he had nothing to do, Chen Xiaoting roughly told him about the arrest of Gao Shijie, and Zheng Jian was even more stunned when he heard it.
"You said you caught the Eastern Heavenly King of the White Lotus Sect?" Zheng Jian grabbed Chen Xiaoting's arm and said.
Chen Xiaoting nodded very seriously, and now Zheng Jian was convinced.
Then I listened to him: "You don't know how much attention the Lord of the Hundred Households attaches to this matter, boy...... Your good days are coming! ”
Chen Xiaoting also smiled and said, "Uncle Zheng, I shouldn't have to go back to Taixi now!" ”
Zheng Jian patted Chen Xiaoting on the shoulder and sighed: "You young people are still powerful, we are all old!" ”
After Zheng Jian asked about the specific process of arresting Gao Shijie, Chen Xiaoting also began to inquire about the information of Zhou Wenzhu from hundreds of households.
I heard Chen Xiaoting ask: "Uncle Zheng, what is Zhou Baihu's temperament, and is it good to get along?" ”
Zheng Jian glanced at Chen Xiaoting, and then asked, "What are you asking for?" ”
Chen Xiaoting said: "Mr. Zhang said that the adults of the hundred households may receive me, I have to understand the temperament of the adults of the hundred households!" ”
This is indeed a reason, Zheng Jian thought about it and said: "The Lord of the Hundred Households is in a high position, although I am in the direct Xiaoqi, but I dare not speak of the temperament of the adult!" ”
Unable to get an answer from Zheng Jian here, although Chen Xiaoting was a little disappointed, it was also within his tolerance.
It is not necessarily a good thing that the superior is guessed by his subordinates. From this point of view, this Zhou Baihu is qualified as an official.
It was also at this time that an errand came to the treasury quickly, and Zheng Jian thought it was coming to him.
But this errand officer directly found Chen Xiaoting, and then said: "Captain Chen, the Lord of the Hundred Households wants to see you, please hurry to the lobby!" ”
Chen Xiaoting couldn't help but smile, and then said to Zheng Jian: "I really guessed it, Uncle Zheng...... I'll go first! ”
Looking at the back of Chen Xiaoting's departure, Zheng Jian muttered: "The Chen family has such a descendant, and Chen Dayong doesn't know what luck this guy has taken!" ”
Summoned by 100 households alone, the meaning of this is worth pondering, and at this time, Zheng Jian made up his mind to have a good relationship with the Chen family.
…………
Beyond the lobby, two rows of trees are lush and green, adding a sense of tranquility to the solemn atmosphere of the place.
Listening to the fluttering branches in his ears, Chen Xiaoting walked hurriedly in the courtyard outside the lobby of the hundred households, and Zhang Zhenshan happened to come out of the lobby at this time.
"Meet your lord!" Chen Xiaoting saluted Zhang Zhenshan and said, this time he can be received by hundreds of households, and there must be credit to the other party.
Zhang Zhenshan nodded, and then arrived: "When you enter the lobby, you must understand the rules, tell the truth if you ask you, don't be clever!"
"Yes......" Chen Xiaoting replied.
After Zhang Zhenshan left, he continued to walk towards the lobby of the hundred households.
Outside the lobby, after Chen Xiaoting took a deep breath, he said loudly at the door: "Subordinate Chen Xiaoting, come to listen to the order!"
The main hall was empty, except for the main seat and a few chairs on both sides, and although the interior decoration was simple and rough, it was more majestic.
After a while, a messenger walked out of the side hall on the left side of the lobby and said to Chen Xiaoting: "Captain Chen, my lord is waiting for you in the west hall!"
After being introduced into the lobby by the servants, feeling the solemn atmosphere inside, Rao is Chen Xiaoting is two people, and he was slightly nervous at this time.
It's a reverence for power, and reverence itself is not praised.
After entering the lobby, turn left to the west hall, which is the daily office of Zhou Baihu, and the usual reception is in the east hall.
Coming to the door of the West Hall, the errand stopped here and left, and Chen Xiaoting saw Zhou Wenzhu for the first time, when he was holding a pen and writing something.
Zhou Wenzhu is about thirty years old, wearing a silver-gray lion-patterned official uniform, and he looks more elegant with a beard.
But it was such a simple glance, and before Chen Xiaoting could see the face of this hundred households, he met Zhou Wenzhu's gaze.
Although Zhou Wenzhu's gaze did not fluctuate, it brought great pressure to Chen Xiaoting.
It was at such a moment that Chen Xiaoting remembered that he should salute, instead of looking at his boss without rules.
I saw Chen Xiaoting kneeling down on one knee and said, "Participate in the hundred households!"
At this time, Chen Xiaoting lowered his head, clenched his fists above his head, and waited for Zhou Wenzhu to call him up.
Zhou Wenzhu continued to write his paperwork, ignoring Chen Xiaoting, who was kneeling in front of him, and he had to quickly report the situation of this operation to Lord Qianhu.
Is this a disgrace for me? Chen Xiaoting asked himself.
Fortunately, his concentration was strong enough, so he didn't say anything more, just knelt on the ground and waited for Zhou Wenzhu to fall.
While Chen Xiaoting was thinking about things, Zhou Wenzhu behind the table was also observing Chen Xiaoting.
Seeing that this young man could still not panic, Zhou Wenzhu nodded slightly.
Then I heard Zhou Wenzhu say in a deep voice: "Chen Xiaoting ......"
