Chapter 342
Making Friends
This battle with the robbers made not only the robbers frightened, but also the guards and servants were even more in awe of their master.
It is said that the third master is both civilized and martial. I don’t think much about it during training, but today I really felt it. A spear, like a swimming dragon, as graceful as a startling dragon, beat away the big boss. The big boss had many people before.
Arrogant!
If you admire Wen Jiuxiao, you are in awe of Yu Zhi. The young lady is too strong, and whips are fatal! Especially the guards of Pingbei Hou Mansion, they feel it most vividly. None of them were seriously injured, only one of them was seriously injured.
Half of them were slightly injured because they have a young lady!
The young lady's whip was so powerful that it protected them all!
The fearlessness makes people awe, the bravery makes people follow, and the direction of the sword makes people's blood flow. With such a powerful master, they all surrender willingly.
There is also the little maid next to the young lady, who is usually silent and like a shadow. Who would have thought that she is also a murderer! Someone secretly counted thirty or forty robbers who died under her knife.
.
Now whenever He Xiaodie shows up, many people rush to be courteous and call her Sister Xiaodie. In the past, they called her Sister Xiaodie because she was the maid next to the young lady. Now they all do it from the bottom of their hearts. She has the strength.
What a sister!
Fan Huailiang, the prefect of Chenzhou, was in his early 40s. He was a serious scholar and was quite shrewd. He was capable, but he was too obsessed with being an official. He dreamed of being promoted. All his thoughts were spent on
When he was in the camp, he naturally didn't care much about official affairs. As long as there were no riots under his command, he didn't bother to take care of it.
Of course Fan Huailiang knew about the group of bandits in Menghu Village, but he just turned a blind eye and did not interfere with the river.
Now the people below are reporting back and forth, saying that Menghu Village has been cleaned up. Fan Huailiang is quite surprised, "Who? Who did it?"
The people in Menghu Village are all like wolves and are not easy to mess with, especially the big boss. I heard that even ten strong men can't get close to them. The weapons in the village are better than those of the officers and soldiers, and it is easier to deal with others.
Almost, how could it be taken care of by others? Is the information wrong?
"Replying to your lord, it's true. It's absolutely true. Sir, you have forgotten that the new magistrate of Shanyun County is about to take office..."
Fan Huailiang suddenly realized why he had sent so many people recently? They were also the new magistrate of Shanyun County. As the prefect of Chenzhou, he had already received the official document. Even though this place is remote and far away from the capital, Mr. Xiaowen is famous
Ah! Who doesn’t know about this young minister who rose to the rank of Shaoqing of Dali Temple? He was the only one in the entire Daqing Dynasty.
Although Fan Huailiang didn't know why Wen Jiuxiao came to Shanyun County to serve as the county magistrate, he was not only a prince, but also a prince himself. Even if he was the top man, he didn't dare to put on airs!
Besides, Fan Huailiang had his own little plan in mind. He thought that if he made friends with this person and relied on his connections, he could go to Beijing!
Now that he knows that Menghuzhai has suffered a loss at his hands, Fan Huailiang is not surprised at all. Ha, he is the son of the Marquis of Wu'an Mansion, and I am serving as a third-rank general in the Yulin Guards. My son must have been given a lot of money when he went to such a place.
manpower.
That Tiger Village is a bit fierce, but if you run into a serious Houfu general, can you please him?
Hearing again that a group of people were coming here with murderous intent, Fan Huailiang was very excited. After all, he is the prince of the palace, how confident he is! The children of rich families are different, unlike him, even if he is the prefect of a state, he can't even have a family.
None of the bandits dared to suppress them.
If he hadn't still had sense, Fan Huailiang would have gone out to greet him. It took a lot of effort to find someone of high status in this remote and remote country. Why shouldn't he make good friends with him?
Wen Jiuxiao didn't know what Fan Huailiang was thinking. But he had also inquired about Fan Huailiang. He had been the prefect of Chenzhou for eight years, and his ratings were average every year. This was not entirely his fault, as the population of Chenzhou was too large.
Less, too poor, and it is normal for there to be less taxes and other things. This man is not good at women, and he does not accidentally establish a name. He levies excessive taxes and treats the people well. He even works around, but he can't get the law, so he spends eight times in Chenzhou as soon as he stays.
Years later, there is a tendency to continue to stay.
Other than that, there's nothing really wrong with this guy.
Fan Huailiang was Wen Jiuxiao's best friend, so he naturally wanted to visit him. He prepared the Four Treasures of the Study and Zhixue Powder as gifts.
Fan Huailiang warmly entertained Wen Jiuxiao, he was very polite, without any airs, and his words were full of flattery. Wen Jiuxiao thought about his character, and it was not difficult to understand his behavior.
Knowing that Wen Jiuxiao came to take office with his family, Fan Huailiang asked his wife to entertain him, but Wen Jiuxiao declined on the excuse that he was tired from the journey and had already been accommodated.
That night, if Wen Jiuxiao hadn't insisted on going back to the inn, Fan Huailiang would have dragged him to talk by candlelight. This enthusiasm was too much to bear.
Early the next morning, the people sent by Fan Huailiang arrived and invited his family to visit his house. Wen Jiuxiao happened to have something to discuss with him, so naturally he took his wife and children to the appointment happily.
What are we discussing? Of course it's about suppressing bandits.
More than a hundred robbers have escaped, and there are still two to three hundred people in the village. If they don't take advantage of his illness and kill him, why don't they wait for them to grow stronger?
Of course, Wen Jiuxiao did not rashly say that he wanted to suppress the bandits, but instead offered to borrow someone from him.
What can you say about Fan Huailiang? Is this a loan? He is giving him credit for his achievements. If not that he is the Prince of the House, look at how openly he handles this matter! He is elegant and dignified!
Without saying a word, Fan Huailiang asked the garrison to mobilize 300 officers and soldiers, and specifically told them to follow his orders.
Wen Jiuxiao and Yu Zhi didn't go. They had figured out the situation in Menghu Village. They had discussed the battle plan last night. Zhuo Zhengyang and the guard chief would just take command.
Oh, He Xiaodie followed. She mainly used knives to deal with the big boss. It just depends on who is more powerful!
One day and one night, the people came back, tying up strings of bandits and pushing cartloads of seized loot. Everyone was beaming with joy.
Menghu Village is really extremely rich, with food, weapons, gold and silver treasures... Oops, let's put it this way, Chenzhou's taxes in three years can't even compare.
Wen Jiuxiao asked for food and half of the weapons, "Master Fan, Shanyun County is too poor. I will take advantage of you this time." As for gold and silver, he didn't want any.
"It should, it should." Fan Huailiang was in a good mood. He knew very well in his heart that people without Wen Jiuxiao would not be able to suppress the bandits at all. Not only would they get such a big contribution for nothing, but they would also get so many things. They just want it.
When ordering food, he felt that Wen Jiuxiao was running out, so he wanted to stuff more food in. But Wen Jiuxiao refused.
He had already told the guards that Wen Jiuxiao's men were very powerful, not to mention one against ten, but one against at least two. There was also a little girl among them, carrying a big knife, and she could chop people like chopping vegetables.
Ouch, it would be great if people like this came to the south earlier!
To make friends, you must make friends well!
