From eunuch to emperor

Chapter 135 The Prefect's Mansion

Sitting cross-legged in the military tent, Long Chen used Yin Xiu Dafa and Hundred Birds Chaofeng Jue at the same time, the martial energy in his body gathered at the gate of life, and then slowly separated a trace of the purest martial energy to condense at the dantian.

This is the introduction that Emperor Luoxi said, the Yanghuo necessary to break through the realm of the Martial Emperor.

Once the yang fire condenses to a certain level, it can break through.

However, Long Chen's current identity is still a eunuch, if he breaks through the realm of Martial Emperor, he will definitely be suspected.

The status of eunuch is really a double-edged sword, it not only gives Long Chen the benefit of doing whatever he wants in the harem, but also requires Long Chen to maintain the personality of eunuch at all times.

"My lord, Chen Zu, the governor of Qianjiang County, asks to see you."

Outside the tent, Zhang Qian yelled, Long Chen slowly opened his eyes, calmed down the martial energy in his body, got up and left the military tent, and saw the governor Chen Zu waiting outside the tent with some officials and soldiers.

"Chen Zu, the governor of Qianjiang County, has met the imperial envoy, Mr. Long."

Chen Zu is tall, with a round face and big nose, a pair of protruding ears are particularly conspicuous, and there is no beard on his mouth.

Behind him was an armored official who seemed to be Sima of Qianjiang County.

Not far away are about 300 soldiers.

Long Chen has never met Chen Zu, so he doesn't know the reality, Zhang Qian and the others don't know either.

It was too hasty before departure, and I didn't carefully ask the officials of Qianjiang County for information, but no one would have thought that the governor would collude with pirates.

"I heard that Governor Chen is good at governing. When the pirates are rampant, Qianjiang County can still be safe. You have made a lot of contributions. I will definitely play the role."

Chen Zu said: "How dare you be an official, it's all a matter of duty."

"My lord, please enter the city, the lower officials have already prepared a welcome banquet."

Long Chen glanced at the soldiers and horses behind him, and said: "The army is afraid of disturbing the people when they enter the city, so we are temporarily stationed outside the city."

Chen Zu looked embarrassed, and said: "If your lord does not enter the city, how can the lower officials fulfill the friendship of the landlord?"

Long Chen said with a smile: "They are stationed here, of course I want to go to the city to have a look, they say this is a prosperous place, how can I come here for nothing."

Chen Zu was happy now, and said: "It's very good, please get on the horse, my lord."

Zhang Qian pulled Long Chen's clothes behind his back, Long Chen said: "You and Captain Wu come with me, General Dugu is stationed here."

Zhang Qian nodded: "OK."

Wu Jian ordered a dozen cavalrymen, these people were brought by him from Xiaoqi battalion, not Dugu Jiali's subordinates.

The empress asked Wu Jian to train cavalry outside the city, and Wu Jian also trained some of his own masters.

"Chen Inspector, please."

Long Chen got on his horse, accompanied by Zhang Qian and Wu Jian, thirteen Xiaoqi guards, and the governor Chen Zu led the way, and slowly headed for Qianjiang County.

Sima Dou Yufei of Qianjiang County led the soldiers behind, his eyes sized up Long Chen and Zhang Qian, he always felt as if he had seen them before, but he couldn't remember where.

In the military tent, Wu Xiangyun retracted her head, her face was cloudy and uncertain, and the scars on her face, feet, and back had begun to scab.

The effect of fish oil is amazing, the wound heals quickly and does not leave scars.

Long Chen walked away, Dugu Jiali ordered the army to be ready for battle at any time, Wu Xiangyun saw that the army was really nervous, curled up and thought for a while, then lay back to rest.

Long Chen rode on the horse, Chen Zu led the way and accompanied him, chatting while walking.

"Has Lord Long been to Qianjiang?"

"It's the first time I've come here. I've heard that this place is prosperous and full of good things. I just want to open my eyes."

"Whatever Master Long wants to see, what do you want, just tell the lower official, and the lower official will definitely bring the things over."

"Why is this so embarrassing? Hahaha, I heard that there are many beautiful women here."

Long Chen had the face of a corrupt official, and Chen Zu heard Long Chen talk about beauties, so he couldn't help but glance at Zhang Qian, and said with a smile: "I heard that Master Long is a romantic talent, and the beauties here are as gentle as water, so I must find some for Master Long." come over."

Long Chen laughed loudly and said: "Master Inspector is polite, he likes water."

Zhang Qian didn't speak at the side, but she complained in her heart: she looks like a corrupt official, and she acted in her true colors.

Outside the gate of the west city, sergeants and common people lined the road to welcome them, and there were also soldiers from the city to welcome them. It looked very festive.

At the gate of the city, the soldiers who asked Long Chen for money yesterday stood up respectfully.

After entering the city, walked through the streets, and arrived at the gate of the governor's mansion, the officials of the governor's mansion lined up to greet him.

Governor Chen Zu got off his horse and led all the officials to meet him.

Long Chen got off his horse, and the governor Chen Zu said loudly: "The emperor's imperial envoy, Minister of the Ministry of Industry and Household Affairs, and the chief of the harem, Long Cheng'en, Lord Long, have arrived!"

The officials of the governor's mansion paid homage one after another: "I pay my respects to your lord."

Many passers-by on the street watched the excitement, among them was the waiter of the inn, he stretched his neck to look around, and always felt that the imperial envoy looked familiar.

The servants of the governor's mansion took water and fire sticks to disperse pedestrians.

"This is Song Tongyang, the prefect of the county, this is Sima Dou Yufei, this is Tao Zhigang, the chief secretary, and this is Cai Xinqiao who joined the army..."

Inspector Chen Zu introduced the officials of the Inspector's Mansion one by one, Long Chen glanced around, and found that these people were different in height, short, fat, and thin, but they were all strong and healthy.

"The Holy Majesty ordered me to go to Qianjiang County to fight the bandits, and I still have to rely on you."

"I would like to listen to your lord's orders."

Chen Zu led Long Chen into the Inspector's Mansion, Zhang Qian and Wu Jian followed closely, and thirteen warrior guards always followed behind.

Entering the main hall, Long Chen sat at the front, Chen Zu was on the side, and other officials stood.

"Everyone, the purpose of my visit this time is very clear, that is to put down the pirates."

"I have been in the capital all this time, so I don't know much about the situation here. Please explain to Governor Chen."

Inspector Chen Zu came out and respectfully said: "My lord, we have 5 counties under the jurisdiction of Qianjiang County. These 5 counties are all near the sea and have been harassed by pirates all the time."

"Some time ago, Zhenhai County was even captured by pirates, the county magistrate was killed, and the lower officials were incompetent and could not be wiped out. That's why I asked the Holy One to send troops."

Long Chen asked: "How many pirates are there, and where are they entrenched? How is Zhenhai County now?"

Chen Zu replied: "There are about 10 pirates occupying Guidao. Zhenhai County is still occupied by pirates."

Long Chen asked again: "Who is the leader of the pirates? How are they fighting?"

Chen Zu replied: "The leader's name is Mendorang, and his fighting methods... basically go ashore by boat and use long knives."

What Chen Zu said was similar to the information Long Chen had read before, and no deception was found.

Ever since the waiter in the shop said that Chen Zu colluded with pirates, Long Chen had always had doubts: Since Chen Zu colluded with pirates, why did he still have to report to the Empress, asking the court to send troops to kill the pirates?

Is it because things are making too much noise?Things can't be hidden?

Long Chen looked at Chen Zu, then at the other officials, and asked: "I heard that many of these pirates are bandits from the Great Zhou Dynasty, and they robbed under the banner of pirates. thing?"

Chen Zu's expression changed suddenly, and the expressions of the officials in the hall also changed.

"My lord, these are all rumors, there is absolutely no such thing."

"Those pirates are all thieves from the sea country in the east. They came to us to plunder, and no one in the local area participated."

Chen Zu spoke very firmly.

Long Chen looked at Chen Zu quietly, and asked again: "What happened to the Wu family in Zhenhai County?"
