After Xu Shu's analysis, the assassination case of Gao Lan was revealed. Chen Zhen stood up and said to Han Zhan: "Lord, we can kill Yuan Shu's assassin's nest in one fell swoop. The woman who came to report the news made a great contribution. Do you see, will you cash the bounty promised by the government to her?"

"Premier Chen," Han Zhan looked at Chen Zhen and said with a smile: "Since it is a promised bounty in advance, it must be paid a little bit, otherwise it will damage the reputation of the government."

After obtaining Han Zhan's permission, Chen Zhen immediately called a servant and ordered: "Go and summon Chen to the prefect's mansion to receive the reward."

After hearing Chen Zhen's order, the officer showed joy on his face and quickly replied: "Little one, obey the order!"

Han Zhan knew that these servants had the habit of plucking their hair by geese. In order to prevent the bounty he gave to Chen from being swallowed up, he saw that the servant turned around and was about to leave, and he quickly added: "Let Chen come to this lobby to receive the reward!"

The happy officer heard Han Zhan say this, and the smile on his face suddenly turned into a bitter smile. But he dared not to disobey his orders, so he could only answer honestly again: "Little obey the order!"

Seeing the officer leaving the lobby, Chen Zhen asked in confusion: "Lord, my subordinates don't understand why they want Chen to come to the lobby to receive the reward? Just call her into the mansion and ask the officer to give her the bounty, why bother to do this again?"

When Han Zhan heard Chen Zhen say this, he knew that he didn't understand that the servants would do things privately, so he quickly explained to him: "Falun Xiaoqi, you don't know. If the servants are asked to hand over the money to Chen, the servants will deduct part of the money in the middle. It is unknown how much bounty Chen can get."

"No?" Hearing Han Zhan say this, Chen Zhen showed an incredible expression on his face: "Lord, my subordinates have always been extremely strict in the city of Guantao."

"It's very easy for the servants below to fool you." Han Zhan didn't want to get involved in such trivial matters, so he specifically told Chen Zhen: "If this Chen family who reported the news was not an old acquaintance of this marquis, and this marquis would not meddle in other people's business and cut off the wealth. However, the Chen family was poor and difficult to survive. This bounty was tantamount to her, and the servants would never be deducted."

After Chen Zhen and Han Zhan finished speaking, they bowed and said, "The lord is polite to the people and takes care of the orphans and widows in this way. Chen represents the people of Guantao, thank you lord!"

After a stick of incense, the servant brought Chen to the lobby. Seeing so many officials sitting in the lobby, Chen couldn't help but feel at a loss. She knelt in front of Han Zhan, kowtowed a few times, and said in a panic: "Little woman, see the Marquis of Ting, see the Lord of the Prefect!"

"No gift!" Han Zhan and Chen raised their heads and ordered the servant standing beside him with a tray, "Come on, give the bounty to this woman."

The frowning servant walked to Chen with a plate of golden cakes. Chen hurriedly took the tray and placed it on the ground, saying in a crying voice: "Thank you, Mr. Ting, and Lord Tai."

Just when Chen was receiving the reward in the prefect's mansion, there was a group of people outside the mansion. Most of them were Chen's neighbors. I heard that Chen had made contributions to reporting the hidden evil people. Han Zhan, the governor of Jizhou and the Marquis of Zhangshuiting, wanted to reward him personally. These people were watching the fun.

The officer guarding outside the gate saw so many people suddenly surrounding him, and thought they were going to cause trouble, so he became nervous. The officer who led the charge plucked up his courage and shouted at them, "What are you going to do?"

An old man with white beard came forward and said to him: "Official, we heard that Chen came to the prefect's mansion to receive the reward, and he made a special trip to watch the fun."

When the officer learned that the other party was not causing trouble, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief and quickly waved his hand to the people in front of the mansion, saying, "Since you are watching the fun, stand back and block the door of the mansion."

The people retreated ten steps away and began to talk. Someone said, "The government said that those who informed the news will reward ten golds, which is one hundred pieces. Do you think they can give them?"

"I think it's quite lingering," as soon as he finished speaking, someone next to him said coldly: "Not to mention a hundred pieces, it would be good if the government could give her ten pieces. Maybe the servants would have to get some benefits from her, and at most they would be seven or eight pieces left."

"Ah, the name of Chen is so miserable." An old man who knows the Chen family background said: "Her younger brother was beaten to death in Sheguo County. He took his younger brother and sister and two children to Guantao for a long distance, and was looted by bandits on the way. It would be too immoral if the government even had to deduct the bounty of the orphan and widowed mother."

As soon as he finished speaking, someone immediately retorted: "I think it's not possible. It is said that the new Jizhou Mu loves the people as his son. Since he said he would reward ten gold, he would probably not go back on his word."

"Will you break your promise? You will know when Chen comes out." As soon as the old man said this, he suddenly pointed at the direction of the mansion gate and said loudly: "Look, Chen is out."

When everyone heard him say this, they all looked at the door of the mansion. They saw that Chen, who was familiar to everyone, was walking out of the door of the mansion, wiping her tears while walking. Seeing this, the old man said first: "Everyone has seen it. Chen is wiping her tears while walking. It seems that the government has no faith and has not given her a bounty at all."

When the old man said this, the onlookers were immediately in an uproar. Immediately, several good people squeezed out of the crowd, came to Chen's face, and asked loudly: "What's wrong? The government didn't keep its word and didn't give you a bounty?"

When Chen heard these people's words, he was stunned at first, then nodded vigorously, and said, "I gave it, I gave it, and I said it was ten gold, so I gave it ten gold." As he said that, he untied a bag in his hand and asked the people around him to look at the ten gold cakes wrapped inside.

"I'll say Chen," the old man squeezed into Chen and asked with some displeasure: "Since the government has given you a bounty, why are you crying? I thought the government was not keeping my word."

As soon as the old man finished speaking, a burst of laughter rang out around him.

Chen saluted the old man sideways and said apologetically: "Thank you for your concern, I'm happy."

At this time, Han Zhan, Chen Zhen and others walked out of the mansion, and the people immediately became quiet. "Dear villagers," Han Zhan heard their conversation in the mansion and quickly said loudly: "The government will do what it says, saying that rewarding ten gold is ten gold, and it will never be untrustworthy. Please rest assured, the villagers."

He paused for a moment, thinking of the Yongye Field system that Xu Shu would officially start after taking office, and then continued, "Dear fellow villagers, I have another good news to tell you. Since the beginning of spring, all soldiers from Jizhou can be assigned a certain number of Yongye Fields, which can be cultivated for generations and will never be awarded. If you have relatives in your family who are willing to join the army, you can sign up for the army at the government office. As long as you become a member of the Jizhou Army, you can be awarded the Yongye Fields."

What Han Zhan said was clearly heard by the people standing in front of the mansion. Seeing that Chen had received a bounty of ten gold after informing the government, they naturally trusted the words of the young Jizhou governor. He said that he wanted to give Yongye Field to the soldiers in Jizhou. Could it be false?
