Chen Jinjun had seen this county magistrate's wife. She was none other than the woman who followed Shao Peichen and killed Jiang Lu and Jiang Yue when they were at Jiang's house that day.
Chen Jinjun was deeply impressed by her, especially her eyes without any emotion.
Where is Shao Peichen?
Chen Jinjun felt something strange, frowned, and looked behind him displeased.
As expected, no wonder I felt something was wrong behind me just now.
Chen Jinjun narrowed his eyes, suppressed his unhappy mood, and looked at Shao Peichen behind him.
When Shao Peichen saw that Chen Jinjun had discovered him, he greeted Chen Jinjun with a kind smile: "Long time no see, Mr. Chen's family."
Little did he know that in Chen Jinjun's eyes, his smile was a naked smile hiding a knife.
Chen Jinjun nodded slightly: "Why are you here, sir? Logically speaking... shouldn't you be sitting in that high hall?"
As he said that, Chen Jinjun glanced at the open door of Chaiyang County Government Office, which was the original Jiang Family Marshal's Mansion.
Shao Peichen glanced at Chen Jinjun, then at the Chaiyang County Government Office, and said thoughtfully: "Above the high hall? That's power. I don't like power, but I can't live without power. My boss is a smart man, my boss
What do you think?"
Chen Jinjun suddenly smiled when he heard Shao Peichen's erroneous answer.
"What are you laughing at?" Shao Peichen looked at Chen Jinjun and asked calmly.
"Your Majesty is someone who does great things. I'm just a businessman. How can I put myself in your shoes and look at the world from your perspective?"
Chen Jinjun looked at Shao Peichen with a half-smile.
Shao Peichen smiled, concealing the flash of shrewdness in his eyes: "The Chen Dong family is just joking. In terms of controlling the current situation, who can beat the Dong family?"
He clearly remembered that Chen Jinjun had fled to Yongzhou before the chaos in the capital, and he was really smart not to take advantage of the chaos in Chaiyang to wade into troubled waters.
"Sir, are you sincere in what you say?" Chen Jinjun looked at Shao Peichen and didn't know what he was up to.
"Of course I'm sincere, boss, we're in the northwest." Shao Peichen said lightly, looking around with a little carefreeness.
Chen Jinjun looked at his actions and felt that this senior official of the Republic of China government was different from the rumors, and couldn't help but become a little interested in Shao Peichen.
"It seems that Master Shao is interested in the entire northwest, and Yongzhou also belongs to the northwest."
Chen Jinjun looked at Shao Peichen, testing his attitude towards Yongzhou.
Shao Peichen saw Chen Jinjun's cautiousness and laughed: "Why should my boss be so cautious? The talent of our boss is the first in the entire northwest, not to mention the whole country. Why should we...trap ourselves in this barren land?"
Hearing what he said, Chen Jinjun understood Shao Peichen's intention, and immediately assumed a cold and distant attitude, nodding slightly: "Then I wish you to achieve your great ambitions in the northwest as soon as possible?"
Chen Jinjun's attitude suddenly changed. Shao Peichen looked at Chen Jinjun meaningfully, touched the roof of his mouth with his tongue, and laughed out loud: "You can tell my purpose from just a few words. My boss is indeed a strange woman."
Shao Peichen looked Chen Jinjun up and down and felt that Chen Jinjun looked particularly pleasing to the eye.
He looked at Chen Jinjun openly, without concealing the shrewd calculation in his eyes.
Chen Jinjun straightened his back, looked at the creases on Shao Peichen's face because of his laughter, and said calmly: "Master Shao has extraordinary methods. I don't want Marshal Huo and Master Shao to meet, but...
He has his beliefs, you have your goals, that's it."
"Back then, when the Republic of China was just established, when I was conducting research in the capital, I was indeed interested in the Chen family. However, something unexpected happened to the Chen family, and the family moved to Yongzhou in the northwest. The government also caused trouble in the capital for a while.
It's a small movement, but it's all necessary for revolution. As the saying goes, if you don't break it, you can't build it."
He knew that Chen Jinjun's marriage to the northwest had the influence of the old man of the Chen family, otherwise Chen Jinjun would have to stay in the capital to observe his filial piety. As a former imperial merchant, the Chen family would be used by the government to scare the monkeys as long as they bear this reputation.
It's just a pity that such a wonderful person like Chen Jinjun now has the reputation of a widow, and he still has an affair with Huo Tingyu.
Shao Peichen looked at Chen Jinjun with a little pity in his eyes.
Chen Jinjun hated the way Shao Peichen looked at him. It was like a chess player looking at his chess pieces.
However, she and Shao Peichen were very different in terms of strength and status, and she could not publicly offend Shao Peichen no matter what.
Thinking of this, Chen Jinjun closed his eyes impatiently, planning to be out of sight and out of mind.
But Shao Peichen didn't achieve his goal, so how could he give up so easily?
He stared at Chen Jinjun: "My boss, I have no intention of becoming an enemy of the entire northwest."
Chen Jinjun tried his best to maintain a polite and decent attitude, and said nonchalantly: "This is the decision of the adults. I, Chen Jinjun, am just a nobody. I can't do anything big."
Shao Peichen's eyes showed a light amber color. When he stared at a person, these eyes seemed to have the magic power to see through people's hearts.
But Chen Jinjun is not an ordinary person, not to mention that she has long been wary of Shao Peichen.
She raised her head slightly and looked to one side: "I have some things to do here, so I'll leave first."
After saying that, Chen Jinjun leaned over and turned away without waiting for Shao Peichen to speak.
After he was sure that he had reached a place where Shao Peichen could not see him, Chen Jinjun finally relaxed his tense body.
There was a rickshaw parked on the roadside. The driver was sitting on the armrest, with a straw hat covering most of his face.
When Chen Jinjun walked forward and passed the rickshaw, he stretched out a big hand and accurately stopped it in front of Chen Jinjun.
Chen Jinjun looked at the hand in front of him and lifted the driver's hat: "Sect Officer Xu."
Xu Fanming was half-lying in the car, raising his head slightly and looking at Chen Jinjun against the sunlight. The strong sunlight was so harsh that he could only open his eyes slightly and grinned: "My boss."
"Why are you here?" Chen Jinjun was a little surprised that Xu Fanming would stop next to the county government office.
"The person who just spoke to you, is Shao Peichen?" Xu Fanming asked Chen Jinjun without answering Chen Jinjun's question first.
Chen Jinjun nodded: "What's wrong?"
Xu Fanming shook his head and looked at the gate of the county government not far away: "You said... the hands of the Republic of China government have reached to the northwest, how long can Yongzhou be peaceful?"
This question stopped Chen Jinjun. To be honest, looking at Shao Peichen's attitude just now, it was obvious that he had the ambition to incorporate the entire northwest into the Republic of China.
If this continues, Shao Peichen will only be an enemy, not a friend.
Chen Jinjun pursed his lips: "Shao Peichen is a very well-known person. If he hadn't really reached that point, to be honest, I wouldn't be willing to be hostile to him."
Xu Fanming raised his eyebrows and looked towards Shao Peichen curiously.
The location where Shao Peichen was located was at the gate of the county government office where people were coming and going. The bustling crowd separated Xu Fanming's sight, and he did not see Shao Peichen.
