Chapter 35: Please forgive the subordinates for being difficult to obey
"Why are there so many people?"
"Didn't you see Li Chong's vicious dog, aren't these people all from the county government?"
"Be quiet, it's the state uncle who has moved."
"What? What is he doing in Lord Chen's mansion? ”
Outside Chen Feng's courtyard, it can be said that it is lively now, Li Chong and his party have just left, Zhou Boqian personally brought people to the door, and then many people also came to the front of the house to watch.
The yard was already under construction, and now the old yard where Chen Feng lives doesn't even have a decent wall.
Therefore, if the people outside are a little taller, they can directly see the situation inside the yard.
"The lower official greets your lord,"
Chen Feng smiled and led everyone to the gate of the courtyard to greet Zhou Boqian, looking very polite, "Your Excellency, please come in." ”
Zhou Boqian put away the Buddhist beads in his hand, glanced at Chen Feng seriously, and thought to himself that this kid was so generous, isn't there something boring?
Now he no longer dares to despise Chen Feng like he did a month ago, this kid must know that he is rushing towards Lei Zhentian Li, he wants to see what kind of trick this kid is going to play.
So he calmly entered the courtyard, looked at Chen Feng and said seriously: "County Lieutenant Chen is really worthy of being a famous teacher's apprentice, he has only been in Qingxi for a month, and he has already captured the bandits who gathered in the mountains and forests,"
"It's really admirable that Lord Lianxian still works so your vacation for you."
Shen Ruxuan brought the tea, and the courtyard was full of officials led by Chen Minhao, and they knew that among these people wearing official uniforms, a large part of them were actually not government officials at all, but the Tsing Yi Gang.
"How dare you,"
Chen Feng clenched his fists and said angrily: "If it weren't for the fact that Lei Zhentian first designed to ambush Xia Guan in Qingshan Valley, Xia Guan would not have run to fight a group of bandits, and Xia Guan actually didn't like to do such a thing that was easy to lose his life,"
"It's just that everyone else has come to the door, and it's not good for the lower officials to act as if they didn't see anything, but fortunately, these mountain bandits are just a rabble after all, and they can't make a big deal."
As soon as this statement came out.
The housekeeper standing behind Zhou Boqian's face suddenly became ugly, and his eyes looked at Chen Feng with a cold look, as if he was going to eat him.
"Thanks to your good martial arts and proper command,"
Zhou Boqian didn't seem to take Chen Feng's weird words to heart at all, and said calmly: "After all, we old guys are useless, but County Lieutenant Chen, you have naturally made a great contribution to the county officials and Lei Zhentian's gang of bandits,"
"But you shouldn't take a bunch of bandits back and put them in your own home, this is not in line with the laws of the country, the county magistrate specially ordered me to come over and escort Lei Zhentian and others back to the county government office for trial."
Attacking others from the righteousness and the law has always been a common trick in their officialdom.
Moreover, the county leader can be said to be Chen Feng, the boss of the county lieutenant, and his words also have a faint meaning of order.
As the so-called official level crushes people to death, in such a situation, it is impossible for Chen Feng to face Zhou Boqian like he did with Li Chong.
"What the Lord has said is very true,"
Chen Feng agreed with his statement without hesitation, and then showed bitterness, "It's just that my lord, you also know that Lei Zhentian is the owner of Heiyun Village after all, and he is definitely not an ordinary bandit, and the lower official did not escort him back for the sake of prudence, I don't know who the adult heard that the lower official sent people back?" ”
"Huh,"
Zhou Boqian picked up the teacup and sneered, "Do you still need others to say this?" County Lieutenant Chen made such a great achievement, and escorted a group of bandits from Heiyunzhai into the city, how could he not know the reason. ”
"Yes, but my lord, you misunderstood, those are the little deflated three in the Black Cloud Village,"
Chen Feng looked at the other party with a smile, and said meaningfully: "That's just a trick for Xiaguan Shi, Xiaguan has long heard that Heiyun Village has a deep foundation in Qingxi, and even there are many people hidden in the county,"
"In order to prevent them from taking the opportunity to save Lei Zhentian back, they deliberately made a fuss, I really didn't expect that it would make you misunderstood, my lord."
The county seat is still the county seat.
This deliberately aggravated tone can't help but make people think about it.
Especially the housekeeper after Zhou Boqian, who he has been by his master's side for more than ten years, and he has never seen anyone dare to be yin and yang in front of their master.
In the originally hot weather, it seemed to be countless times colder because of Chen Feng's words.
Zhou Boqian didn't know if he felt that the tea was too bitter, and the sound of dropping the cup was obviously much heavier than when he first came.
His cloudy eyes became unfathomable, and there was no longer a smile on his whole face, staring at Chen Feng and asking: "County Lieutenant Chen, Heiyun Village is a big disaster in this county, you have made great contributions, but don't be arrogant." ”
"You didn't ask the magistrate for instructions in this operation, and you transferred the county officials without permission, and you didn't take the magistrate and the official in your eyes at all, the magistrate and I saw that the people in the county were in high spirits, and I didn't bother with you when I thought that the benefits of this matter outweighed the disadvantages,"
Zhou Boqian stood up, put his hands behind his back, and said in a calm voice: "But if you don't understand, then the official will teach you two sentences, as an official of the imperial court, things must be done in accordance with the rules and regulations, if everyone is like you, acting without asking for instructions, how much trouble will it bring to the county government,"
"Why, now that you feel that you have made a great contribution, this official can't control you? Do you still want to use lynching? ”
He said strongly: "Now this official orders you to immediately hand over Lei Zhentian Jiang You and a mountain bandit to this official, and this official will personally escort them back to the ya." ”
"Please forgive the official for being unable to obey his fate for the time being!" Chen Feng bowed down.
"Chen Zishi, do you want to disobey orders?!" The butler couldn't bear it anymore and was furious.
"Big brother, don't be so fierce, scare my family,"
Chen Feng's mocking eyes swept over the butler's face, and then he looked at Zhou Boqian and said: "My lord, those little deflated three officials can be handed over to you now, but Lei Zhentian and Jiang You are imprisoned outside the city by the lower officials, and they really can't be handed over to the adults for the time being, please forgive me." ”
Zhou Boqian turned around awe-inspiringly, as if a raging fire was burning in his eyes, but he didn't speak.
"If the adults don't believe it, you can take someone to search the courtyard of the lower official,"
When he said this, Chen Feng seemed full of confidence and was extremely calm, "Anyway, Xiaguan's courtyard is so big, and it will be searched soon." ”
Search?
When he was a month ago, was Boqian Chen?
With so many people watching outside, how could he send such a handle to Chen Feng's hands.
He took a step back and said: "In this case, this official will give you half a day, and you will be limited to escort Lei Zhentian and Jiang You to the county government prison in the evening today, and now you will hand over Li Chong to this official." ”
