Chapter 55: Acceptance

"This man is quite bold!"

Looking at Sun Ji who came out alone, Xu Shu said lightly.

Zhang Miao smiled slightly and patted the horse to greet him.

"Young Governor, I'll accompany you." Deng Tu hurriedly followed.

Zhang Miao smiled and did not refuse.

"I and that Sun Ji are also old acquaintances, and we have drunk together in the past." Deng Tu explained.

Zhang Miao smiled and said, "Since Father Zhong and Sun Ji have met, things are much simpler. ”

When he saw Deng Tu, Sun Ji was surprised: "Brother Deng Tu, didn't you move your family to Xiangyang, how did you appear here?" ”

Deng Tu said: "I went to Xiangyang, but I came back again, and I am currently working in the township soldiers of Sanshui Village." ”

"A village of township soldiers can make Brother Deng Tu yield, it's really amazing!" Saying that, Sun Ji looked at Zhang Miao, "Who is this?" ”

"Let me introduce to you, this is the young patriarch of Sanshui Village, and the young governor of Sanshui Township, Zhang Miao, a professor of Xiangyang Prefecture!" Deng Tu hurriedly introduced.

Sun Ji nodded and said: "I've heard that the name of Xiangyang and the defeat of Gegang Du Liudu Qi, the reputation of the young patriarch Zhang has spread throughout Huyang, but I don't know why the young patriarch came to my Mao Village?" ”

Zhang Miao smiled slightly: "For what, doesn't Master Sun know?" ”

Sun Ji's face turned cold: "How do I know?" Sun asked himself if he had done anything to offend your village, and now the young patriarch is pressing the border with a large army, so please tell me bluntly. ”

The smile on Zhang Miao's face retracted, and he said lightly: "Master Sun knows that my Sanshui Township Soldier has another name, which is the Sanshui Security Team!" ”

"The so-called security team is to protect the territory and the people, not only Sanshui and one village, as long as there are thieves in the entire Huyang, my Sanshui Township soldiers have the responsibility to clean it up!"

Sun Ji sneered: "What a big name, what kind of protection of the territory and the people, it's just a robbery under this name." Tell me, what the hell are you going to do? ”

Zhang Miao shook her head: "Brother Sun, you are still lonely and unheard, haven't you heard that my father is the new Dengyi Township?" Arresting thieves is the duty of the guerrilla, and my Sanshui Township soldiers are the army under Deng Yi You, and they are justifiable officers and soldiers! ”

Sun Ji's face suddenly changed greatly, and he suddenly remembered that not long ago, he heard that Zhang Yu of Sanshui Village was appointed by Huyang Ling as the governor of Dengyi Township because of the extermination of Gegang Du Liudu Qi. It's just that because Zhang Yu never went to Dengyi to take office, he ignored this matter.

The soldiers of Sanshui Township have the status of officials, the situation is very different, attacking themselves is the real bandits, and no one will pay attention to it even if they sue the government! And if you resist yourself, you are against the government, even if you can repel the township soldiers in front of you, what if the government mobilizes more troops to come?

Thinking of this, cold sweat flowed down Sun Ji's forehead, and when he spoke again, he had lost the momentum he had just now, "Young Patriarch, although I have been a thief in Mao Village some time ago, I was just carried by the thief handsome Zhou Cang, otherwise the lives of the whole village are not guaranteed."

We are all good families, so naturally we don't want to be thieves, so when the thieves retreated, I fled back from the thieves' nest with the villagers. Brother Deng Tu can testify that we have never done anything evil. ”

Seeing that Zhang Miao suppressed Sun Ji's momentum in just a few words, Deng Tu admired it in his heart, and now of course he was on Zhang Miao's side, turning a blind eye to Sun Ji's pleading, and he didn't want to talk at all.

Zhang Miao sneered: "Haven't you done anything wrong? Not necessarily. As far as I know, yesterday, you led people to kidnap them! What is the difference between kidnapping and ransom and thieves? ”

Sun Ji suddenly realized why Zhang Miao came.

However, how did he know that it was the traveling doctor who he kidnapped, which made Sun Ji very puzzled.

"What do you mean by the young patriarch?" Sun Ji asked tentatively.

Zhang Miao smiled coldly: "What? Don't you dare to admit what you've done? Do you want me to bring someone over and confront you? ”

Deng Tu waved his hand, and several township soldiers walked over with Jiang Chong on their backs, and threw Jiang Chong on the ground in front of Sun Ji with a "poof".

"Doctor Jiang, you actually sold me?" Sun Ji suddenly understood and shouted angrily.

Jiang Chong's face was pale, Nuo Nuo didn't dare to make a sound, and in one night, he had already been frightened.

"Young Patriarch, since you know everything, I will tell you the truth. This Jiang Chong once cured my mother and was kind to me. This time he sent me a letter asking me to help, and I agreed.

Originally, he asked me to lead someone to kill the traveling doctor and bury the body in the wilderness. But I didn't want to kill innocently, and besides, the traveling doctor was very good at medical skills and killed Tianhe, so I just tied up the traveling doctor to the village, prepared to be locked up for a few days, and sent someone to send him away from afar.

In this way, he will no longer compete with Jiang Chong for business, and it can be regarded as repaying his kindness. ”

After Sun Ji finished speaking, he turned around and called someone to bring Fan A here.

Soon, Fan A, who was wearing sackcloth, was brought over, and Li Chen, who was in the queue in the rear, looked carefully, shouted "Mr. Fan", and then pulled his legs to greet him.

"Fortunately, Mr. Fan is safe." Zhang Miao's face softened, "Otherwise, Sun Ji, I'm afraid you and your subordinates will have to accompany him to the funeral!" ”

Sun Ji wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and didn't dare to respond.

"Hahaha," Deng Tu laughed, "since the matter has been settled peacefully, so be it." We will still be brothers in the future. ”

Deng Tu's words made Sun Ji's heart suddenly relieved.

Zhang Miao shook her head: "Where is it so simple!" ”

Sun Ji's face turned cold: "Young patriarch, what else do you want?" ”

Zhang Miao looked at him lightly: "What do you say?" ”

Sun Ji's face changed, and he suddenly said: "I understand, young patriarch, I will let people prepare pigs, sheep, grain, and copper coins to reward your army!" ”

Zhang Miao's face finally eased, and said with a smile: "Pigs and sheep copper coins are not needed, but we have come from afar, Brother Sun, as a landlord, how can you do your best to be a landlord, and you should always have a meal." ”

Sun Ji smiled: "Of course. ”

After the matter was negotiated, the tension disappeared, and Sun Ji personally invited Zhang Miao and Deng Tu into the village to rest, and sent someone to bring breakfast to the Sanshui security team outside the village.

The township soldiers had Xu Shu's management belt, and Zhang Miao entered Mao Village with confidence.

During the banquet, Sun Ji personally served wine to Zhang Miao to apologize, expressing his admiration for Sanshui Village. Zhang Miao naturally said that she didn't care, and she had misunderstood Yunyun in the past.

"Brother Sun, you can't do this, have you thought about the future in the future?" When the wine was hot, Zhang Miao climbed on Sun Ji's shoulder and said softly.

"Future, it is not easy to survive in this troubled era, where is the future?" Sun Ji smiled bitterly.

"Otherwise," Zhang Miao said with a smile, "For a good man, troubled times are the time to make contributions." ”

"Please also ask the young patriarch for advice." Sun Ji hurriedly clasped his fists and saluted.

Zhang Miao suppressed Sun Ji's fist, hooked his shoulders and whispered.
