The defender-General’s mansion in the capital city, Jiang Zhennan, Guo Bing, and Zhou Wencai were in the study room.
Guo Bing patted his palm with a folding fan and smiled. “I didn’t expect miss Lin to give Lord Zhou such a big gift as soon as she arrived in Zhou Shan city.”
She actually had the ability to make this gang of robbers turns themselves in.
With how evil the bandits were, even if they surrendered, they would not be given a lighter sentence. They could only be beheaded in public to reduce their sins.
This was a brilliant political achievement after Zhou Changsheng was promoted to magistrate.
Zhou Wencai never expected his father to be supported by Lin yuelan. It was like a dream.
Previously, they had been waiting for the Zhou family in An Ding County, hoping to display their grand plans and talents. However, they had been abandoned by the Zhou family.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtNow, things were changing.
He had been promoted from a seventh-rank County Magistrate to a fifth-rank magistrate in a short time, and he had even managed to deal with the group of bandits that had caused the previous magistrate a headache.
It was hard for people not to pay attention to such an achievement.
Zhou Wencai exclaimed in admiration, ” how is miss Lin’s brain constructed? It’s really impressive.
Guo Bing smiled and said, “Young master Zhou, miss Lin is a genius. A genius is definitely not someone ordinary people like us can compare to, right?”
Zhou Wencai nodded with a smile and replied, ” indeed.”
Then, Guo Bing looked at Jiang Zhennan and asked seriously, ” big brother, did the Emperor say anything? ” ᴛʜɪs ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀ ɪs ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ʙʏ (F)ire
As soon as Zhou Changsheng, the prefect of Zhoushan, took office, he arrested the bandits in the Black Mountain forest. The next day, all of them were beheaded in public. This time, the merchants, tourists, and ordinary people who passed by all praised him. Such a big case must have made its way to the capital and then to the emperor’s ears.
Therefore, the Emperor was overjoyed and called Jiang Zhennan to the study.
Jiang Zhennan responded to Guo Bing and said, ” Your Majesty is just curious. Why would the bandits from black wind Mountain surrender themselves? ” It was obvious that the crime of execution would not be reduced even if they surrendered.
Speaking of this, Guo Bing was also very curious. “Speaking of which, big brother, this matter is really strange. What exactly did miss Lin do to make the bandits send themselves to their deaths? ”
Zhou Wencai also looked at Jiang Zhennan with a curious gaze as if he wanted to hear an answer from Jiang Zhennan’s mouth.
Jiang Zhennan shook his head and said, ” I don’t know either.”
However, he could guess that Lin yuelan definitely had a plan.
Guo Bing didn’t hear an answer from Jiang Zhennan’s mouth. He immediately shook his head in disappointment and said, “Hey, big brother, how did you answer the Emperor? ”
To the Emperor, Jiang Zhennan contributed a lot to Zhou Changsheng’s achievements. In that case, Zhou Changsheng must have had some kind of connection with Jiang Zhennan. Therefore, the Emperor wanted to ask Jiang Zhennan about this case personally.
Jiang Zhennan shook his head and said, ” I can only tell his majesty the truth.”
Guo Bing was stunned and asked suspiciously, “What do you mean?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmJiang Zhennan said, ” it’s just that the group of bandits suddenly had a stroke of inspiration one day and suddenly realized that they had done too many bad things. They felt extremely guilty, so they turned themselves in.”
Jiang Zhennan said in a very serious manner.
“Pfft!” Guo Bing spat out the tea he was drinking, then choked and coughed violently.
Guo Bing’s face and ears were red from choking. He looked at Jiang Zhennan and asked suspiciously, ” big brother, did you really say that to the Emperor? ”
Anyone who heard these words would feel that it was especially fake, let alone the Emperor of a country.
Jiang Zhennan said in a serious tone, ” The Majesty listened to me. His expression and actions are just like yours. Whether his majesty believes it or not is not my business.”
In fact, the Emperor didn’t really believe this.
It was just that Jiang Zhennan’s words were too serious, and he had to wonder.
Of course, the Emperor also believed that Jiang Zhennan really didn’t know why the robbers suddenly turned themselves in.
Guo Bing could only give up. This matter was like a headless case, hovering in the ears of everyone in the capital. Unless someone personally interrogated those bandits, it was obviously impossible.
That was because the robbers had already gone to hell.
Guo Bing continued, “Miss Lin has already opened another restaurant in Zhou Shan city. I wonder how the business is there? ”
