Chapter 837 Zoucheng is their Zoucheng! When I came here last time, I used a ladder!
February 12, the fifteenth year of King Qin’s reign.
Zou City, five miles west of the Xicheng Gate.
All the powerful people in each county sent their clansmen and even their clan leaders to stand here. The powerful and senior officials in the county came out in full force, waiting here before dawn.
Among the crowd, whispers could be heard endlessly.
County Prime Minister Zhu Chong frowned slightly and said in a low voice: "Go and warn all parties again."
"I don't care what they are thinking, but they must show respect and please later."< br>
"The successor magistrate is a first-year student of the military academy and a favorite disciple of Lord Chang'an. He will not be as easy to deal with as Magistrate Liu. Don't think that the same methods used to deal with Magistrate Liu can still be used. Come and deal with this county magistrate!"
"Unless the magistrate is really ignorant, try not to cause any trouble."
Zhu Du nodded lightly: "Understood."
With a wave of his right hand, twenty of Zhu's disciples followed Zhu Du and walked towards the powerful and powerful people from all sides.
After reviewing the reception process over and over again, Zhu Chong could not find any problems, but the uneasiness in his heart still lingered.
Suddenly, a county soldier galloped back on horseback, shouting: "The county magistrate is here!"
Zhu Chong quickly put aside his distracting thoughts and led all the county officials and everyone The heroes marched westward together.
Then, I saw a royal chariot and horse engraved with four-spirit beast patterns galloping towards me!
The pupils of Zhu Chong and others all shrank, and they looked at the carriage with strong envy and vigilance
Although they had long heard that Ying Zheng sent royal carriages and horses as gifts to those who graduated from the military academy. born.
But after hearing about it, Zhu Chong and others couldn't help but sigh in their hearts when the noble and luxurious royal carriages and horses actually appeared in front of them.
What is grace!
With a lot of thoughts in his mind, he kept walking and quickly stepped forward to meet the county magistrate. After a few dozen feet, Zhu Chong stopped, raised his hands and shouted: "County Prime Minister Chong, welcome the county magistrate!"
Gao Yang and Zhu Chong stood side by side, followed closely behind Zhu Chong and shouted: "County Wei Yang, welcome the county magistrate!"
Behind Zhu Chong and Gao Yang, more than a thousand Zoucheng officials, powerful people, The dignitaries all raised their hands and shouted:
"We are here to meet the county magistrate!"
On both sides of the officials, powerful and powerful people, there were two hundred people with different looks and temperaments, but all of them were of the best in appearance. The dancing girl also bowed and shouted softly: "Greetings to the county magistrate!"
After the call, the musician at the end of the team played the hand-operated drum.
Accompanied by the sound of music, two hundred dancers danced gracefully, showing off their beauty without hesitation.
The royal carriage and horses slowly stopped in front of Zhu Chong, and the car window was raised, revealing a rather childish face.
The cold and solemn eyes swept over each greeter, and finally looked at the dancers stretching their figures, charmingly murmured: "We haven't entered the city yet, the sugar coating will be here!"
< br>This gesture of goodwill is simple, direct, primitive and crude, but it is particularly effective for officials who come from poor backgrounds.
If he hadn't been given such a good meal by the big shots in his hometown that he once needed to look up to, and even made him feel nauseated and walk away holding on to the wall, he might not have been able to take his eyes off him at all!
After calming down, Can Zhen stepped out of the car, bowed his hands and said loudly: "The county magistrate has met you all!" There are all outstanding people in the military academy, and one look at it today, and it turns out that it’s true!”
“It’s really a blessing to have the county magistrate pretend to be the magistrate of Zoucheng!”
If you are just a wanderer! An old fox who has been in politics for many years can understand the meaning behind Zhu Chong's words.
This Zoucheng is their Zoucheng! The relationship between Zoucheng and Canzhen is only a cooperative relationship, not a subordinate relationship.
Unfortunately, Zhu Chong’s hint was undoubtedly a wink to the blind man.
Can Zhen just bowed his hand and said seriously but enthusiastically: "I hope I will live up to the king's kindness!"
Zhu Chong was slightly startled.
You were born in Han and grew up in Qin. How could you be so loyal to the emperor?
What you do makes me, who has been studying Mencius' Confucianism since childhood, a little embarrassed to attack you!
Seeing this, Zhudu stood out from the crowd and said with a hearty smile: "Is this the first time the county magistrate has come to our Zoucheng?"
"Zoucheng is different from Xianyang and Xinzheng. There is so much meat, but I, Zoucheng, have my own specialties.”
“All kinds of delicacies are prepared. I hope the county magistrate will not give up and come to the city to taste the food, wine and beauties of my Zoucheng. Give me a chance to help the county magistrate!"
After saying that, Zhu Du gave Can Zhen a look that any man could understand.
From Zhu Du's point of view, Can Zhen might readily accept the offer and sink into the gentle countryside weaved for him by the powerful people in Zoucheng. Like countless county magistrates, he would become the puppet of the powerful people in Zoucheng.
Can Zhen may also shout angrily and act as if he does not go along with them. Then what awaits Zhan Zhen will be coercion and lack of cooperation from all the powerful powerful people in Zoucheng!
But what Zhu Du didn't expect was that Can Zhen actually said seriously: "This is not my first time coming to Zoucheng."
Zhu Du was slightly startled, and then asked with a smile. : "Did the county magistrate pass by Zoucheng during his study tour?"
"Doesn't this mean that Zoucheng and the county magistrate are destined!"
Cancan shook her head: "My previous visit to Zoucheng was not for a study tour, but to lead Qi Junpaoze to retake Zoucheng."
After a pause, Cancan said with a smile: “However, when I first entered Zoucheng, I climbed the ladder and entered the city from the city wall.”
“I haven’t passed through the gate of Zoucheng yet.”
“ I have no time to try this so-called food, wine and beauties in Zoucheng.”
Can Zhen turned the lively welcome scene into silence with just one sentence!
Suddenly, a low scream sounded: "It's him! The five hundred masters who slaughtered all the Qi family in Dongcheng!"
Can Zhen didn't look for the speaker, but the smile on his face became brighter. A few points: "I did slaughter several families in Zoucheng that were harboring the Chu army and resisting the Qin army. I just don't know if there was the Qi family you mentioned in your mouth."
Already deserted. The atmosphere fell directly into the ice cave at this moment!
The expressions of everyone including Zhu Chong and Gao Yang changed.
This new county magistrate was not only one of the generals who followed the Qin army to 'take back' Zoucheng, he even participated in the suppression and massacre of Zoucheng!
Zhu Chong raised his vigilance against Cancan to the extreme and completely gave up the idea of intimidating Cancan. He just hoped that the gentle land and money they had carefully prepared could be used by Cancan for them!
However, before Zhu Chong could speak again, Cancan had already spoken: "The Qi family is gone, but spring plowing is around the corner."
"I have no time to go to Gaole, you can follow. Should I go to the countryside to take a look at the fields?"
Zhu Chong felt even more bitter.
Didn’t the intelligence say that the new county magistrate was a man from a poor background?
How could he ignore those alluring women and instead want to crawl into the fields before entering the city!
Can Zhen looked at Zhu Chong, and his smile gradually turned cold: "Why, it's not appropriate?"
Zhu Chong quickly suppressed his complicated thoughts and laughed loudly: "The county magistrate wants to inspect How can it be said that it is inappropriate in the countryside?"
"Please!"
