After Tian Ronghai arrived, he didn't rush to the barracks to investigate the case, but came to Tan's Mansion first to visit his student Tan Suqin!

Tan Suqin was very surprised when she heard that the teacher was coming, and hurriedly came out to greet her, the old man Tan respected the teacher, and when he heard that his daughter's teacher was coming, he also hurriedly rushed out to entertain him. The father and daughter accompanied Tian Ronghai to chat in the living room. Tan Suqin asked the teacher, "Teacher, why are you here?" ”

Tian Ronghai smiled and said, "I came here to do some business, by the way, I came to see the old man and you!" ”

Before Tan Suqin could ask what business it was, the next person suddenly came to report that He Shaorong and He Tuan Commander were here! As soon as He Shaorong received the news, he hurriedly rushed over to see the commissioner! Old Man Tan hurriedly ordered someone to invite him in.

After He Shaorong entered the door, he saw Tian Ronghai sitting there, and hurriedly walked up to give a salute and said, "He Shaorong, the head of the Anping Town Garrison Regiment, see Chief Tian!" ”

Tian Ronghai waved his hand and said, "No need to be polite!" Originally, he wanted to say, "You can sit down!" But suddenly I thought that this was the Tan Mansion, and I was also a guest, and it seemed that the host should speak about the matter of the seat, so I took these three words back.

Old Man Tan was old and sophisticated, and immediately noticed it, and hurriedly greeted He Shaorong and said, "Virtuous nephew, please take a seat!" ”

He Shaorong said: "How can there be a position for a subordinate official in front of the chief, I still stand!" "Still standing there respectfully.

At this time, Tian Ronghai said: "You don't have to be restrained, since the master has already given the seat, if you don't sit, won't you refute the master's face?" After saying that, he smiled.

He Shaorong bowed down and said: "Since this is the case, it is better to be respectful than to obey your fate!" He sat down in a chair next to him. Sitting upright, looking very respectful.

Tan Suqin was very strange in her heart, she didn't understand why He Shaorong would call her teacher a chief and respect him so much! When I was puzzled, I suddenly heard Mr. Tian speak: "Presumably Regiment Commander He has heard that Tian has come down to investigate your case this time, and some people say that you are a bandit and reported this matter to the headquarters, what explanation does Regiment Commander He have for this?" ”

He Shaorong hurriedly distinguished: "The lowly duty has always been law-abiding, and the military discipline is strictly abided by, and I never dare to have any collusion with the bandits. ”

Tian Ronghai said "oh" and said, "Then let's talk about it, how did you get wronged?" ”

He Shaorong pondered for a moment and said: "Here's the thing, there is a local bandit leader named Li Yongan, who has fallen into the grass on the nearby mountains and gathered hundreds of his subordinates to cause trouble. This Li Yongan was very bold and reckless, and actually kidnapped the second lady of Tan Mansion on the road. He Shaorong glanced at Tan Suqin when he said this, and then said: "If you want your subordinates to exchange arms for people, your subordinates are helpless, and in order to save the second lady, they have to exchange arms with him, which is really a helpless move, and it is definitely not an intentional bandit!" ”

He Shaorong didn't want to mention this matter, because in any case, this is a crime of bending the law for personal gain, and in order to replace people, he actually gave the public arms to the bandits, but He Shaorong saw that Tian Ronghai hurried to the Tan Mansion as soon as he came to the town, as if he had an unusual relationship with the Tan Mansion, so he changed his mind and told the kidnapping, hoping that Tian Ronghai could let him go for the sake of the Tan family!

Tan Suqin listened to the two of them answer a few words on the side, although she still didn't understand why the teacher suddenly became He Shaorong's chief, but she understood that the teacher, the "chief", came to investigate He Shaorong, and because of the arms he gave Li Yongan, he hurriedly interceded with He Shaorong on the side, proving that what he said was true! Old Man Tan also tried his best to excuse He Shaorong on the side, and kept saying good things.

But Tian Ronghai was unmoved, and really caught He Shaorong on the charge of bending the law for personal gain, and said: "Even if it is to save people, it is also bending the law for personal gain!" The death penalty may be avoided, but dismissal and investigation are inevitable! ”

He Shaorong finally got mixed up with this regiment leader, so naturally he couldn't be dismissed like this, and hurriedly explained: "In addition to rescuing the second lady, there is a more important purpose, and I don't dare to bend the law for personal gain!" ”

Tian Ronghai let out an "oh" and said, "What other more important purpose do you have, let's hear it!" ”

He Shaorong replied: "The bandits are rampant here, like weeds, and they are not clean and cause people a headache, so after thinking hard, they came up with a way to control the bandits with bandits, and used the contradictions between the bandits to provoke them to fight among themselves, so as to achieve the goal of suppressing the bandits. This Li Yongan is the candidate selected by the lowly position to support, he is brave and ruthless, he is not very harmonious with other gangs, and often has conflicts, and the lowly wants to use him to eliminate other gangs! ”

Tian Ronghai asked, "Then what is the effect of the final implementation of your plan?" ”

He Shaorong replied: "The effect is very good, the largest group of bandits in the local area, Liu Jindiao and his group, have been eliminated by Li Yongan!" This is all the credit of his humble support for him! ”

Tian Ronghai snorted and said: "I know about this matter, but I heard that after Li Yongan eliminated Liu Jindiao, his own people have skyrocketed to thousands, which is much stronger than the original Liu Jindiao. ”

He Shaorong couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat when he heard this, and hurriedly stood up and nodded and said: "Yes, yes, I also feel that this matter is not very appropriate, and I am thinking about persuading Li Yongan to persuade him to surrender, serve the government, and incorporate his men and horses into the government army!" ”

Tian Ronghai slapped the table and said, "Okay! If you can co-opt Li Yongan and his gang and let them work for the government and no longer cause trouble to the locality, then I will not blame the past and spare your mistakes, otherwise, you will wait for military justice! ”

He Shaorong hurriedly replied: "Yes, yes, I will do my best to persuade him to surrender and serve the government!" ”

Tian Ronghai nodded and said: "Then you can do it quickly, I will give you half a month, you let him come to see me, and talk to me about Toucheng in person, if you haven't been able to convince him in half a month, then don't blame me for turning my face and being ruthless, let's do business!" ”

He Shaorong hurriedly replied: "Yes, yes, I will do it immediately, and I will definitely persuade him to come to see you, sir, and tell you about surrender in person!" After saying that, he gave a military salute, turned around and left in a hurry.

At this point, Tan Suqin has nothing to say, and then it depends on whether He Shaorong can persuade Li Yongan to surrender. After this incident, Tan Suqin was surprised to find that the teacher was still serving in the army, and couldn't help but ask strangely: "I don't know when the teacher joined the army?" ”
