Chapter 129 Banquet

Chen Suwen had been in the officialdom for a long time and saw the expressions of the three of them. Feng Jian had a slightly respectful expression, just like Ping Yue meeting his elders and relatives. And the two standing behind him, one was similar to Feng Jian, but had an ignorant and fearless expression; the other was a middle-aged fat man, who was still nervous and trembling when he saw him close. These two people who should be close to him should be close to him, Chen Suwen thought to himself secretly.

Chen Suwen waved his hand slightly and said, "Your Young Master Feng and the two heroes don't need to be polite, please sit down and talk." He led Feng Jian and the other two to the Eight Immortals Table to be used for guests and sit down.

The servant who was serving him was pouring new tea neatly. During this period, Chen Suwen began to look at the commander of the Huluyan pirate. When the young man saw his parents, he was not as trembling as an ordinary farmer, and he was neither humble nor arrogant when he saw him.

This is impressive to Chen's news, which shows that this person has some insights and deserves to be the commander of more than 10,000 bandits!

Just now, his daughter Li Lan mentioned that Feng Jian was the leader of Huluyan bandits in Daze Mountain and was preparing to lead 13,000 Huluyan bandits to surrender to the court.

Chen Suo-he heard that he had been the governor of Pingdu for several months, what worries him the most was the rampant bandits in Daze Mountain in his territory.

Groups of fleeing people gathered in Daze Mountain and evolved into bandit forces. The bandits seized the opportunity to rob and plunder the wealthy gentry family within a radius of dozens of miles. Some bandits actually sank on the official road to rob. It can be said that the bandit forces have become the root of chaos in Pingdu and are the major troubles of Pingdu local officials!!

The former governor spent so much money and food to raise troops to encircle and suppress the mountains. Not only did he not wipe out the bandits, but he was in an increasingly expanding trend. The reason was that there were nearly 100,000 people who took refuge in Daze Mountain, and more than 30 peak-headed bandit forces were quite large. The officers and soldiers came to encircle and suppress them, and the so-called officers and soldiers were also composed of some ordinary military households who lacked training. Their combat power was almost the same as the bandits, so they naturally returned in disgrace.

Chen Suwen was the new governor of Pingdu, and the first thing he faced was how to solve the problem of bandits that affected local stability. But he was also at a loss when facing the bandits who were gradually arrogant!

Just now, his daughter Li Lan mentioned that Huluyan led by Feng Jian is one of the strongest bandit forces in Daze Mountain, with more than 13,000 refugee bandits under his command. Feng Jian planned to lead Huluyan to surrender to the court, and this time he made a special trip to contact the surrender.

Chen Suwen was secretly shocked. More than 13,000 bandits in Daze Mountain were really a big bandit force. If this force really rushed down the mountain to siege and loot the local wealthy gentry, the government was helpless.

Now that I heard that more than 10,000 bandits were preparing to surrender to the court, Chen Su was a little convinced at first! These bandits really planned to surrender to the court. What was their purpose for surrender?

My daughter, Li Lan, had no need to joke with her. She confirmed again that Huluyan was about to surrender to the court under Feng Jian's leadership. Chen Suwen was immediately overjoyed. He said that he was worried that the thieves in Daze Mountain would cause trouble in the countryside, but suddenly heard one of the more powerful thieves ready to surrender. His excitement was beyond words!

He held back the surprise and told his daughter a little bit. Chen Suwen stood up and walked to the back hall of the official office.

If Feng Jian led more than 13,000 bandits in Huluyan to surrender to the court, it would not only be of great benefit to the improvement of public security in Pingdu, but also to the performance he achieved in his own political affairs. Hehe, it is worthy of success.

What Li Lan said was unknown. He wanted to personally contact the commander Huluyan to find out why he led the people to surrender to the court and what requirements he had after surrendering? But he could not let the other party see through his excitement and urgency!

Feng Jian and Chen Suwen looked at each other for a while. Feng Jian has been a farmer in his future life, and neither his knowledge nor patience can compare with those who have been immersed in the officialdom for many years like Chen Suwen.

Seeing that Chen Suwen kept stroking his beard and smiling, he couldn't help but speak first: "Master magistrate may not understand the origin of the villain, villain..."

Chen Suwen waved his hand and said with a smile: "No need to say anything about your origin and purpose of coming here. I have heard from my little girl Li Lan that you are Feng Jian, the leader of Huluyan bandits!"

Speaking of this, his tone suddenly became cold and harsh, "Bold bandits, I am worried that I can't catch you, but I didn't expect you to fall into the trap. If you catch you, you will be a big harm to the people."

Pan Zhaonian, who was sitting beside Feng Jian, jumped up at the same time when he heard this. Cheng Yousheng was a newborn calf. He rolled up his sleeves and glared at Chen Sowen and said, "These officials are just unreliable. We have worked hard to protect him and send their daughter back. This officials have revenge in favor, which is really hateful!"

Pan Zhaoying stood up in frightened. He stared at Chen Suwen with trembling all over, and seemed to be about to kneel down and beg for mercy.

Feng Jian was a little surprised. As soon as the Chief Chen entered the door, he looked happy. After saying a few words, he suddenly changed his color. This was obviously threatening and intimidating the three of them. If he really wanted to capture the three of them, he would not waste his words.

After all, Cheng Yousheng and Pan Zhaoying were never seen in the world. After all, they were a little excited by Chen Suwen and immediately revealed their true appearance.

Feng Jian turned his head and scolded Cheng Yousheng and said, "Shut up, how can you be arrogant in front of the magistrate? It is true that we are bandits, but we are preparing to surrender to the court, because the magistrate does not know about it, which caused a misunderstanding."

As he said that, he stood up and bowed deeply to Chen Suwen and said, "Prince Feng is willing to lead more than 13,000 people in Huluyan to submit to the court again. Please accept the magistrate." He stood up and bowed deeply to Chen Suwen.

After waiting for a while, I didn't hear Chen Su heard him. I looked up and saw the magistrate looking at him with a smile on his face.

Suddenly, he said: "I see that my friend Feng is about the same age as my little girl. I ask you to call you a nephew. How about you call me uncle?"

Feng Jian was a little confused. Chen Suwen was still shouting to fight and kill just now. In a blink of an eye, he became abnormal and had a relationship with him. The face changed too quickly!

Then I thought about it and called myself a virtuous nephew, which was to treat myself as my nephew. I was a small bandit, but the other party was a fifth-rank magistrate, which was to praise myself. This shows that Chen Sowen had something to ask for.

Sending Chen Hualan alone will not let Chen Suwen reduce his value and make friends with him. All that is left is the issue of Huluyan surrendering to the court. More than 10,000 people surrendering to the court in Huluyan will probably remove a big worry from Chen Zhizhou! In fact, this Chen Zhizhou is full of expectations for his own surrender! Feng Jian suddenly figured out the whole story.

Understanding the other party's this itself illustrates many problems. I don't know what purpose Chen Suwen deliberately concealed it. Feng Jian was a little puzzled, but he did not lose his etiquette. He quickly knelt down and kowtowed, "Since the magistrate looked at me, my nephew naturally did not dare to refuse."

Chen Suwen deliberately said with a stern face: "Why are you still calling him Master Zhizhou!"

"Oh, uncle!" Feng Jian was not used to this change in his identity for a moment, and he was a little reluctant to call him.

Chen Suwen carefully observed Feng Jian's every move. With years of experience, he realized that this thief-killing commander was not like a cunning person, and even showed a hint of immatureness in some aspects. When he used some methods, the other party could not calm down.

That's good. When both sides talk about the important matters later, they can take the initiative. In Chen Suwen's opinion, there will inevitably be a lot of additional conditions for the other party to surrender to the court. Some conditions are reasonable and of course they can agree, but the conditions that cannot be met are neither rejected nor agreed. Therefore, from the very beginning, Chen Suwen put pressure on Feng Jian and the other two to check their words and expressions, and now he finally understands the other party's behavior.

Chen Suwen smiled slightly and helped Feng Jian up and said, "Nephew, please get up quickly. You will be tired and hungry when you are escorting your little girl on a long distance! Come on, come and have a seat first. Let's have a detailed conversation between the table.

He smiled and said to Cheng Yousheng and Pan Zhaoying, "Sit down, these two heroes, too. It turns out that the virtuous nephew is going to lead Huluyan to surrender to the court. This is a great good thing. If you surrender to the court, you will definitely affect the surrounding bandit forces, and you will definitely not dare to do evil casually!"

Cheng Yousheng sat down a little, but by this time he seemed a little uneasy. Pan Zhaoying sat back on her seat while wiping the cold sweat from her forehead, looking at Chen Suwen with lingering fear.

Chen Suwen ignored the two and focused on asking Feng Jian about some specific situations in Huluyan. Feng Jian naturally avoided the important things.

Once more than 13,000 bandits in Huluyan surrender to the court, it will greatly improve the situation of rampant bandits around Pingdu. If the means are used properly, the surrendered bandits will go to wipe out the bandits still entrenched in Daze Mountain. Use bandits to attack the bandits, and solve the major problems without the government's efforts. This is a great political achievement for Chen Sowen, and Chen Tuanzhou's superior, Laizhou Prefecture, and the governor of Denglai will also benefit.

When Chen heard that he was in the main seat, he saw that Feng Jian and the other two had sat down, he picked up the wine glass and said, "At the end of the year, the official office has stopped working, and the official has been sealed. Therefore, I am free. I will hold a family banquet to thank the heroes of Huluyan for saving the little girl. Come on, I will respect the nephew and the two heroes first."

Feng Jian curled his lips secretly: "Hmph, this old fox must be full of expectations for Huluyan surrender, but on the surface he pretended to be indifferent! It depends on when you can endure it!"

These people who are strolling in the officialdom have become elites, and their level of playing Tai Chi and pushing hands is unparalleled. It is obviously a simple and clear thing, but when they come to their hands, they have to go around a few bends and hit a few puzzles to make people fall into a fog before they can stop!

The matter of leading Huluyan to surrender to the court was obviously very beneficial to the Pingdu realm and Chen Shuwen himself, but the other party had to go around a long way, because the purpose was to be afraid that he could not meet the conditions proposed by his party, and Feng Jian gradually understood.

The first sentence I heard Chen raise the wine glass was to thank him for saving Chen Qinglan. Feng Jian casually glanced at the corner of his mouth, saying that he had the intention of contacting and dating this parent official, now it should be said that his original intention has been achieved.

Feng Jian hurriedly and Cheng Yousheng Pan Zhaoying and the other two stood up from their seats with their glasses. Feng Jian said, "It was a coincidence that they saved Miss Chen. My nephews and others dare not to be the governor toast."

Chen Su heard this and said unhappy: "There is no way to see the nephew Feng, but I have already said that it is a family banquet. You don't have to be restrained with the two heroes, just drink and chat with your elders."

Feng Jian got used to it very quickly, and he said, "Then it's better to obey your orders than respect. The New Year is approaching. My nephew gave this glass of wine to wish the magistrate a prosperous official career and a better success in the coming year!"

Cheng Yousheng Pan Zhaoying, who was standing by, followed suit, and raised his glass to wish Chen So-wen together.
