Chapter 54 Li Jinzhong's murderous intent
“This mutton hotpot is so delicious!”
In front of the table, Li Yunling picked up a piece of mutton and stuffed it into her mouth, so hot that she took a breath.
“Eat more if you taste good.”
Chen Yuan smiled and pushed her a glass of warm water, looking at Li Yunniang.
"You don't come a little? This is the mutton I bought after spending five days' salary."
"If you want to eat, you can only wait for your salary to be paid next month."
Li Yunniang sneered.
"Don't think that I don't know that you hide ten thousand taels of gold under your bed."
"With this money, I can't eat anything I want."
Chen Yuan scratched his head awkwardly, "I think it's hidden enough."
"I didn't expect you to find it at a glance. It seems that the effort to hide money is not enough."
Upon hearing this, Li Yunniang covered her forehead: I’m really curious how corrupt officials like you were promoted to the fourth rank.
It took only an hour from entering the door, and you looked under the bed more than 300 times.
Even a fool can tell that you are hiding money under the bed.
Shenyuan……
"Okay, don't waste time on this girl."
"I wouldn't give the Analects of Confucius to people like you."
A woman's face changed as soon as she said it was changed. She was calm at the last moment, but was cold as ice the next moment.
However, Chen Yuan did not intend to get the Analects of Confucius so soon.
He needs some time.
At this time, Hu Er's voice sounded outside the door.
"Mr. Shen, the Protectorate's Office sent someone to send you an invitation to the banquet."
"Zhao Wenhui?"
Chen Yuan stood up and glanced at Li Yunniang and left the bedroom.
The latter had plain teeth and bite his red lips, and his eyes were slightly red.
One day she will kill Zhao Wenhui, the murderer who was involved in the accident.
Leaving Yingzhou Prefecture, Chen Yuan took Hu Er with him and rode a donkey to the Dongyi Protectorate.
This is his first visit to Zhao Wenhui since he took office as governor.
When we arrived at the Dongyi Protectorate, there was a long queue here.
The most times, four people carry sedan chairs, and most of them dress up are either rich or noble.
He was the only one riding a donkey to the banquet.
"It turned out to be the governor Chen, I'm lucky to be lucky." A man with a shaved beard and wrapped in cloth came over to say hello.
"Who are you?"
Chen Yuan was puzzled and thought that he didn't seem to know this person.
"Li Jinzhong, the governor of the Songmo, has been recognizing Lord Shen's reputation for a long time. Today, I saw it, it is indeed worthy of my reputation."
"Oh, it turns out it's Governor Li, don't dare."
Chen Yuan returned a gift, and the two were about the same level as each other, and were both under the jurisdiction of the Yingzhou Governor.
He couldn't bear the other party's gift.
After the greetings, Chen Yuan smiled and said: Governor Li is here to attend the banquet today?
Li Jinzhong nodded awkwardly.
"Yes, the Grand Governor invited him, and the officials came here in advance. Unexpectedly, they met the Governor Chen, which was worth the trip."
"Let's do this, Li will be the host another day. How about asking Lord Shen for a drink?"
"That's how it's going to be done."
“It’s okay.”
Looking at Li Jinzhong entering another team to greet him, Hu Er exclaimed.
"This Governor Li is really approachable and has no airs at all."
"No wonder I was able to sit in the position of Governor Songmo."
Chen Yuan glanced at him and smiled slightly.
"Donald Zhou was afraid of rumors, and Wang Mang was not yet welcoming the times."
"If I died in the first place, who would know the authenticity of my life?"
"Let's go, let's meet the Yingzhou Governor."
The two of them crossed the team and walked to the front door to hand over the invitation.
The gatekeeper glanced at it and frowned.
"Mr. Shen, haven't you seen the queue behind you?"
"If you want to enter the door and have to come one by one, don't you?"
As he said that, he twisted his fingers and made a gesture that was worthy of benefit.
Chen Yuan slapped the manager in the face and snorted coldly.
"Scratch!"
Then he swung his sleeves into the main entrance.
"Ai, why are you hitting someone!" The manager had not finished his words.
Hu Er, who was walking behind, was shaved his ears again.
He laughed and scolded.
"Your dog eyes are blind. We Lord Shen don't line up when we enter the palace to face the saint. What are you?"
"I dare to ask him for money, I really feel that I have a long life."
The words came to an end and left.
Everyone was stunned when they saw it in line. They were worthy of being the governor Chen, and even the servants were so domineering.
Entering the Protectorate Mansion, Chen Yuan took Hu Er all the way to the hall.
Seeing that there were many officials sitting here, only the first one was left with a chair.
I didn't think much about it and sat down.
"Governor Chen, come down quickly, that's the position of the Grand Governor."
Someone whispered.
"Oh, thank you."
Chen Yuan's old face turned red and he moved to the corner with his chair.
Leave an empty first.
Just as everyone was in a mess in the wind, a sound of singing outside the celebrity hall sounded.
"The Great Governor of Yingzhou is here!"
"Secretary of the lower ranks meet with the Grand Governor!"
During the visit of all officials, Zhao Wenyi came to the hall with his belly shy.
Just as he was about to let all officials not be polite, his smile suddenly froze on his face.
The eyelids twitched.
"Where is the tiger chair of this governor? Who has sat down?"
"Yes, who has sat down, please return it to the Grand Governor as soon as possible."
In the strange eyes of everyone, Chen Yuan looked around and looked for the chair.
There is no intention of sending the chair back.
Zhao Wenhui coughed and said angrily.
"Sir, the chair is right under your butt, don't you know what to do?"
"Ah, is that?"
Chen Yuan turned around and found that the chair was indeed under his butt.
Apologetic bow.
"I'm sorry, the Grand Commander, the lower officials have been living in the wilderness for a long time. They don't know much about etiquette and hope to forgive their crimes."
Zhuge Xuanming, who was standing beside him, whispered in Zhao Wenyi's ear.
"Grandmaster, he is Chen Yuan, the governor of Yingzhou."
Zhao Wenyi was stunned, and the anger in his heart disappeared in an instant.
Haha laughed.
"It turns out it's Brother Shen. He is really young and promising. Just move another pair of chairs when they are gone."
"You guys go to the banquet with me?"
The banquet was placed in the middle courtyard, with three tables in total, whether intentionally or unintentionally.
Shen Yuan's location was arranged next to Zhao Wenyi.
"Governor Chen, I heard that you have the reputation of being a three-bowl of nowhere."
"I have to drink a lot today, hahaha."
Amid the rumbling laughter, Zhao Wenhui lifted the sealing mud and poured a large bowl of Chen Yuan.
It seems that I want to give him a warning.
Chen Yuan was not polite, so he picked up a big bowl and drank it with Zhao Wenhui.
The two of them drank three bowls in a blink of an eye.
Zhao Wenhui's face was rough and red, and his eyes were hazy, but Chen Yuan's face did not change.
I knew that I would not be a match if I continued to drink it, so Zhao Wenhui slapped the table.
"What's the point of drinking just? Go and find a few people to help you with your fun."
"Yes, the Grand Governor."
Not long after, the guards of the Protectorate led a team of prisoners wearing shackles to the open space.
Looking at the wolf-headed totem on his chest, it is obviously a Khitan.
"Give these guys a short blade each and let them fight each other."
"The last survivor will be rewarded with 100 taels of silver and will be discharged from slavery!"
As soon as these words were spoken, all the officials' expressions changed, especially Li Jinzhong, who was sitting in the last position, with extremely embarrassing expressions.
These Khitans were all young people, so they let him sit here and watch their tribe fight.
It's even more uncomfortable than killing him.
Therefore, the eyes of Zhao Wenhui became more and more resentful.
Chapter completed!
