Chapter 38, prior agreement

In the afternoon, the two brothers of the Zhang family of Anyangting made a special trip to Beiguoting and visited Zu Zhao.

The Zhang brothers have heard about the experience of their ancestors yesterday. Naturally, they can't stand by and watch such a big event.

After a period of communication, Zhang Yuan and Zhang Yu both admired Zu Zhao. Now that we have joined hands with Zu Zhao to train the people in Xihe Bridge to prepare for thieves, we should be regarded as our own people. That's why they have to help. Of course, they also know that it is more than enough to deal with this matter with the power of their ancestors, but they must do less.

Zuzuo received the two brothers of the Zhang family in the side hall. Let's have tea and have a good time.

Since he had decided earlier to invite the two brothers of the Zhang family to participate in the Xihe Bridge to participate in training activities, it is self-evident that he hopes to use the help of the Zhang family or at least Zhang Yuan and Zhang Yu in the future. This horse robbery case is a good opportunity. Whether there is a Taiping Taoist disciple or not, as long as everything is done properly, it can become a preemptive excuse.

Therefore, it will only be beneficial and harmless to further strengthen the relationship between the two brothers of the Zhang family at this time.

"I, Xu Wu and Lingzhi, have not had such a big case for many years, which is really outrageous."

"Don't worry, Mr. Zu, but if there is any contribution from us, please don't hesitate to refuse."

"Zuzu Zhao remembers the two intentions in his heart. I have to say that this incident is really appalling. For the past ten days, we have gathered at Xihe Bridge to practice, not to beware of thefts this winter. I didn't expect the thieves to be so rampant. These Japanese villages are struggling to track down the whereabouts of the thieves. As soon as there is news, these thieves will pay for their blood. Zu Zhao said righteously.

"The hateful thief, it's not enough to shock people if they don't give a little color." Zhang Yu said repeatedly.

"Speaking of Lingzhi County, brother, I also have some acquaintances when I arrive. In addition, it seems that Han Yigong and Han Zhuangshi are also the commanders. In the past few days, I will definitely arrange for Mr. Zu to inquire about the news in Lingzhi County. Zhang Yuan looked like a ghost, but his tone was also very serious, as if he wanted to do what he said.

"With the help of Brother Wenyi, I will get twice the result with half the effort. Thank you in advance." Zu Zhao said politely. He believes very much in Zhang Yuan's words. After all, as a ranger, Zhang Yuan has made a lot of friends. If he can contact some rangers in Lingzhi County through the other party, it will certainly be much more convenient to inquire about the news.

After that, Zu Zhao took the initiative to mention the practice of Xihe Bridge. Even if the ancestral family has no time to escape for the time being, the Zhang brothers and the rangers of Anyangting have leisure to continue to practice. Even if you just run two laps at will, practice riding and shooting, or even just get together regularly every day, it's better than nothing.

Hearing Zu Zhao's words, Zhang Yuan felt quite emotional. He had earlier guessed that Zu Zhao was definitely not a thing in the pool, and what he did must be considered in the long run. Zu Zhao still remembers to insist on practicing, which shows that its real purpose is not just to focus on practicing.

"Mr. Zu's words must be remembered by Zhang. Fortunately, the Xihe Bridge is not far from the county seat. If there is any dispatch on Mr. Zu's side, he will only send someone to Xihe Bridge to wait for me. On the contrary, I can come here faster.

"Ha ha, Brother Wen Yi is so heartfelt, thank you very much."

"It's getting late, so I'll say goodbye to Ah in advance. You can send someone to Lingzhi County as soon as possible."

"That's good work." Zu Zhao did not stay much, and there was no etiquette habit of leaving people for dinner in this era.

After sending away Zhang Yuan and Zhang Yu, the sunset was already in the west.

Zu Zhao went to the horse farm to play Ma Bei. In less than half a minute, Zu Zhan strode to the backyard.

Looking for Zu Zhao, Zu Zhan quickly said, "Mr. Wen County Lieutenant came and said he wanted to see you."

Zu Zhao wiped his hands and asked, "Oh, but is there a clue from the county government?"

Zu Zhan shook his head and said, "No. Wenxian lieutenant came on behalf of Chen Xianjun and said that it was about the inspection in the county this year.

Although the inspection is a good thing, Zu Zhao is not happy at all now. Not only that, but he feels that Chen Xianjun has ulterior motives when he mentioned this matter at this time. I had long expected that Chen County was by no means a practical person. Everything he did was perfunctory. He must still be unwilling to be involved in the horse robbery outside the county, but he did not want to offend the ancestral family, so he chose to arrange an inspection and assessment at this time. On the one hand, he could flatter the ancestral family, and on the other hand, he could more or less divert his perspective. Line.

He frowned slightly and said slightly heavyly, "Your Excellency is really good at doing things."

Zuzu Zhan didn't understand Zu Zhao's words, but it was difficult to ask more questions.

Follow Zu Zhao out of the horse farm and turn to the front hall. On the way, Zu Zhan told Zu Zhao that the old master did not pick up Wen Tai. Hearing this, Zu Zhao had an idea in his heart. His grandfather was definitely not a fool. Naturally, he could guess that Chen Xianjun was careful. It was also a statement not to meet Wen Tai.

When he came to the front hall, Wen Tai was using tea.

Z Zhao and Zu Zhan came forward to greet each other. Wen Tai's face was not very good, and he answered plainly.

After sitting down, Zu Zhao said without changing his face, "Lord Laowen came here on this special trip. Lord Chen is really hard, and he has to take care of the inspection in his busy schedule."

Wen Tai put down the tea bowl and said rudely, "Who said no?" The county is going to be busy solving the horse robbery case, preparing for theft this winter, and sorting out the reclamation work at the beginning of next spring. The county lord was not in a hurry, and everything seemed to know it like the palm of his hand. In a word, we subordinates can't figure out what he is thinking.

At first, when he saw Wen Tai's bad face, Zu Zhao thought that the other party blamed the ancestral family for not having any elders to welcome him, but only asked a few teenagers to treat guests, which was really disgmely. The first half of Wen Tai's words just now was full of ups and downs, and he was obviously complaining about this matter. Unexpectedly, when the words turned around, he suddenly changed to making fun of Chen Xianjun. Zu Zhao and Zu Zhan really don't understand this series of beginnings and transitions.

In terms of official age, Wentai is more senior than Chen Xianjun, but unfortunately, his military background is not popular. Wentai has served in Xu Wu County for nearly five years. Chen County was only appointed last year. In terms of people's hearts and prestige in the county, it is more or less incomparable.

Zuzu Zhao and Zu Zhan looked at each other and did not answer Wen Tai's words.

Wen Tai sighed, frowned and said, "There are a lot of chaos in the county, and I don't know if it will be stable this year. The eldest son and Mr. Zhan are both blessed people. I'm afraid they won't know the complaints outside.

Zu Zhao smiled secretly: It's not here to notify the inspection, but why is it so full of complaints today!

Although Zu Zhan also felt embarrassed, he still followed Wen Tai's words and said, "What Lord Wen said makes the younger generation really unable to deal with themselves. The world is restless. How can we turn a blind eye to it? But even so, the younger generation is useless, and the only thing they can do is their own skills.

Wen Tai suddenly laughed and glanced at Zu Zhao with a deep glance. He said rudely, "I'm just joking. Chen Xianjun asked me to make a special trip to inform Mr. Zu that on the third day of next month, the county will hold a year-old inspection. The eldest son will only go through the motions. There is nothing to worry about.

Zushao smiled and said, "Lord Chen is very grateful for your love."

Wen Tai put his hands on the chair and was about to get up. He said, "Well, there's nothing to do today. Later, I will meet with the county's stinginess and Zu You to see if there are new clues in the investigation of the horse robbery case.

Zu Zhao nodded slowly. At present, the whole county is probably staring at the "horse robbery case". It is rare that Wen Tai is willing to deal with some facts in the county government. He said solemnly, "Well, Lord Lawen is really coming."

Wen Tai's face was expressionless, as if he asked knowingly, and as if he pretended not to know, and said, "What's the matter?"

Zu Zhao's face changed slightly, laughed and arched his hand and said, "Lord Lawen has bothered so hard to track down the horse robbery case to return justice for my ancestors."

Wen Tai sneered and said, "Even if it's not because of General Zu, I, Wen Tai, will certainly not be careless within my responsibilities."

Zu Zhao knew that Wen Tai deliberately didn't give himself a good face, but he didn't have any unhpleasure. He kept a gentle face, said a few words in response, and then sent Wen Tai away.

When he returned to the inner courtyard with Zu Zhan, Zu Zhan said worriedly, "This Wenxian lieutenant has always been a strange person, straightforward, and no one will give face. But I have become more and more angry these days. Alas, I always feel that it will not be peaceful this winter.

Zu Zhao glanced at Zu Zhan. Although his cousin was a weak scholar, he was more or less a capable person. From what he said just now, he could also see that he also had some insight. He said quietly, "I'm afraid that many people in the world are coveting that this is not peaceful."

Zuzu Zhan straightened up and was puzzled: "Big son, this..."

Zu Zhao interrupted, "It doesn't mean anything else."
