Chapter 205: Three Fish That Slipped Through the Net (Part I)

Layers of clouds spread evenly across the sapphire blue sky. The moonlight was then blocked behind the clouds, and once the night fell, there were very few things in sight. I can barely see the outline of things.

Chen Baichuan looked at Huang Shilong's face, but because of the sky, he couldn't see his expression at the moment. He said, "You say, how are you better than me?" ”

The reputation of Lord Chen's prodigy spread all over the Chen country, and Rao is Huang Shilong can't talk nonsense no matter how thick-skinned he is. Moreover, at this moment, he has a request from others, and it is impossible to belittle Chen Baichuan and elevate himself.

Huang Shilong thought that it was better to answer frankly.

He arched his fist and said: "The ruler of the country can only be seen by the public, and the lower officials dare not compare with the adult." But the talents of the lower officials are still much stronger than those of the mediocre people in the government and the opposition. ”

Chen Baichuan nodded a few times and said, "Then you will be my retainer from now on, and I will block it for you on King Chen's side, but you don't have to be delusional about the position of the governor." Even if King Chen is kind-hearted, it is impossible to have no punishment at all, so be ready for demotion. ”

Huang Shilong did not hesitate, and bowed his head: "Your Majesty see the master." ”

"It's good to call me an adult in front of outsiders, is the wound on my head okay? Find a good doctor and take a look. After Chen Baichuan accepted the retainers, he left this sentence behind, and went back to the mansion to find a beautiful woman to accompany him, without waiting for Huang Shilong's reaction.

A light side dish, and then a grinding with the ears and temples of the beautiful woman, the long night was spent like this.

Before going to bed, Chen Baichuan had already taken off his robe, blew out the lamp on the table, and was ready to renew his wish with Zhou Gong to dawn in the east. just got into the soft quilt, but he began to toss and turn, unable to sleep.

I was tired all day, and I should have fallen asleep tiredly.

There were all kinds of thoughts in his heart, and he forced himself to close his eyes, but his mind was still calm. At this time, everyone is uncomfortable, and of course Lord Chen is in the scope of human beings, and of course he is also deeply tormented.

With a long breath, he kicked off the covers and got up to sit on the edge of the bed.

In the middle of the night, most of the people in the Chen Mansion had already fallen asleep, and there was no way to know if someone happened to toss and turn with Lord Chen. Lord Chen pushed open the window, and the cold wind blew in.

It was early summer, and the weather was gradually getting hotter, and the cold wind not only made people feel cold, but also blew Chen Baichuan a little refreshed. There was already little sleepiness, but when it was messed up by this gust of wind, there was no trace left.

Looking out the window, in the haze, the rockery and small lakes are more chic, but they are different from what they see during the day. Lord Chen hadn't admired it for long, when suddenly a figure jumped in front of him, causing him to be terrified.

Chen Baichuan fixed his eyes and saw who it was, and couldn't help blurting out with complaining words: "Chen San, it's not good to rest in the room, come out and scare me!" ”

The guy with a sharp face and a sword eyebrow in his field of vision is not the cold-faced guard Chen San.

In the face of his master's complaints, Chen San seemed to be unwavering, but those who were familiar with him knew that he was purely a zombie face.

Chen San replied coldly: "There are too many people who escaped in the thirties of that book, and I can't rest assured." ”

Don't worry about Lord Chen's safety, so you can't sleep at night, are you alone here? A warm current erupted from the bottom of Chen Baichuan's heart, even if this guy was actually doing this to repay his brother's kindness.

When the moved Lord Chen wanted to have a heart-to-heart relationship with the cold-faced guards, Chen San dropped the sentence "I'll stand at the door" and slipped to the side. Obviously, I didn't plan to listen to Lord Chen's chatter.

The night was long, and Mr. Chen, who had nothing to do, in the gentle night breeze, his chaotic thoughts were gradually sorted out and smoothed out.

He took out a note from under the pillow, and the word "protégé" was written squarely on it, although there was no signature, but Chen Baichuan's heart was like a mirror, and an old man was kind and soft-hearted.

However, he didn't mention anything about saving his life except for the word protégé, so he still let Chen Baichuan see if this distressing fat man was worth saving. If Huang Shilong hadn't knelt in front of Chen's Mansion today, Chen Baichuan would have replied to him for his life at best.

After this play, Lord Chen couldn't help but think about the future of his retainers, so he put pen to paper and wrote a sentence "The prodigal son will not change his money".

……………………

"My lord, after the officials carefully identified it, there are only three characters worth mentioning."

Huang Shilong suddenly came to Chen's mansion this morning, saying that he had endured humiliation under Shu Santen's command for many years, and he happened to know the "generals" under Shu Santen's command, and he could identify them from a cadre of prisoners.

For the two groups of people besieging the Chen Mansion, Chen Baichuan made different treatments. The hooligans were all escorted to a place outside the city to serve as cheap laborers, and as for the guards and lackeys of the library, Lord Chen sent them all to prison.

Several high-ranking figures were also found and detained in a felony cell for questioning and beheading. However, hearing Huang Shilong mention this stubble, Chen Baichuan thought that maybe there would be fish that slipped through the net, so he went on this trip with him.

Unexpectedly, three fish were really found.

"Which three?" For these three people, Lord Chen has some expectations in his heart. The matter of Shu Santen's escape is like a needle, as long as he does not find his trace for a day, Chen Baichuan will inevitably have trouble sleeping and eating.

"The commander ordered the jailer to arrest them."

After Huang Shilong finished speaking, he turned to look at the cell door behind him. Soon after, the jailer approached with an ordinary-looking man.

The man saw that it was Chen Baichuan and Huang Shilong here, and scolded: "Huang Shilong, you two-faced and three-knife anti-bone boy, when the master of the book makes a comeback, you will not die well, and people like you are destined to have no good end." ”

Governor Huang, whose mentality had changed greatly, was no more than before, and in the face of his insults, he just replied indifferently: "I don't care, you won't end well at this time." ”

Seeing that Chen Baichuan looked at the two of them with interest, Huang Shilong introduced this ordinary-looking man.

He said, "My lord, this guy is called the one-eyed dragon, and he is a great help to the book. This person has eyes like a torch, and he is good at detection and observation, but he is a rare talent. However, he usually wears an eye patch, and everyone thinks he is blind in one eye, but they didn't expect it to be his disguise. ”

Huang Shilong's words actually had the meaning of recommending this one-eyed dragon, Chen Baichuan looked up to him a little, you must know that the two of them were still fighting in front of him just now.

Huang Shilong bowed his waist slightly and said, "This time is different from the past, Shilong is now an adult...... And the adult's team is still weaker, so he recommends talents for the adult, as for personal grievances, the lower officials don't want to do these for the time being. ”

Chen Baichuan nodded and said, "I understand that you have this heart." ”
