Traveling back to the admiral's youth

Chapter 220 (220) The bandit leader enters the urn

Taking advantage of the other party's slack, Qu You contacted Mu Yuetan's informant and successfully bought Chi Zhongrong's cronies.

He used the persuasion of his cronies to let Chi Zhongrong go to Ganzhou to testify against Lu Ke face to face.

As the "Golden Dragon Overlord", Chi Zhongrong has managed tens of thousands of gangsters, and he is definitely not a fool.

However, Ji Cheng repeatedly sent conciliatory envoys to send him silver taels and condolences, and he couldn't help but feel a little swollen.

Moreover, he thought that Ji Cheng couldn't beat him, so he showed weakness.

This kind of honor of being courted by high officials in the court was something that Zhengnan King Xie Zhishan and Yanxi King Gong Fuquan did not have.

However, while he was inflated, he still hesitated and declined, but let his younger brother Chi Zhong'an follow Qu You to see the situation.

Even though Qu You failed to complete the task, he still led his brothers away with a naive attitude.

Along the way, he and Chi Zhongan call each other brothers...

Unknowingly, in December, there are snowflakes in the sky.

After seeing Chi Zhongrong's younger brother, Ji Cheng informed the army and civilians in Ganzhou that the bandit suppression in Nan'an had been won, and the bandits in Wutou had surrendered to the imperial court, and the world was peaceful.

And asked the whole city to decorate and celebrate.

And Jicheng also rewarded the soldiers with great fanfare, and then repatriated the militias from various places.

Next, Ji Cheng sent Chi Zhong'an and others back to the cottage, and specifically asked them to guard against Lu Ke's sneak attack.

At the end of the year, Ji Li sent envoys to the bandits' lair in Wutou for the fourth time.

This time the envoy was Yu En, the fourth-rank commander of Ganzhou Weizheng, who used the name to issue the new imperial calendar, and once again carefully reminded Chi Zhongrong that he needed to guard against sneak attacks by Lu Ke's subordinates.

Yu En is also a seasoned veteran, he didn't say a word when he invited people to come to Chi Zhongrong after he met Chi Zhongrong.

After staying for a few days and having a few drinks to get familiar with him, he made a suggestion to Chi Zhongrong from the perspective of a friend.

"Brother, every time Admiral Ji gives a big gift, he should reciprocate the gift and pay his respects at least once."

Seeing that Chi Zhongrong listened, Yu En persuaded him earnestly.

"Lu Ke sued my younger brother for treason and begged the government to arrest the traitor. If he couldn't be arrested, it just confirmed the fact of treason. But if my younger brother took the initiative to go there without waiting for arrest, he would prove his innocence."

"If Master can confront Lu Ke face to face, that villain Lu Ke will be dead." Chi Zhongrong's confidant who was instigated to rebellion also kept persuading him.

Chi Zhongrong drank some wine, and seeing that these court officials were really counselors, his mind became more and more wandering.

He drank a large bowl of Shaodaozi wine in one gulp, dropped the bowl, and said, "Okay, if the man can bend and stretch, I will go through it myself!"

He didn't believe that he couldn't play against these cowards!

Taking this trip is also a good time to see Ji Mianhua's tricks.

Yu En strikes while the iron is hot, and urges him overtly and secretly.

Immediately, Chi Zhongrong led more than 40 strong bandits and set off with Yu En.

On the other side, Jicheng immediately issued a strategy to suppress the bandits, asking the magistrate of Huizhou Road, where Longchuan County is located, to select soldiers.

However, apart from making way for the magistrate to prepare manpower, Ji Cheng did not disclose the rest to the other party.

Afterwards, Ji Cheng quickly issued more detailed plans and cards for the campaign to the leading officers.

Immediately afterwards, the Jicheng faction sent Qianhu Mengjun to Longchuan with the order to arrest Lu Ke's subordinates.

When the officers and soldiers passed by the Wutou bandit's nest, Meng Jun showed his arrest warrant.

The bandit leaders thought that the government wanted to arrest Lu Ke's subordinates, so they opened the convenient doors one after another and greeted them warmly.

Meng Jun is someone who Jicheng has used very well recently. He participated in the Nan'an Suppression of Bandits and has more combat experience.

In fact, his trip was to organize Lu Ke's subordinates and prepare for the attack.

On the day of the new year, the city of Ganzhou is decorated with lanterns and festoons, creating a festive atmosphere.

Chi Zhongrong also arrived in Fucheng on this day.

He has not drunk recently, and dare not drink again.

He already doubted himself and was fooled.

But he has arrived, and he can't go back in despair.

Therefore, after Chi Zhongrong came, he was not in a hurry to visit Ji Cheng, but first found an excuse to sneak to the school grounds to check.

He found that the militiamen who were practicing had actually been disbanded, not just talking.

But those literati have always been cunning, he is still a little worried.

Chi Zhongrong thought for a while, then went to the cell again.

When he got to the gate of the cell, he saw someone guarding him, so he took out a piece of silver and prepared to bribe the jailer.

But the little jailer, who was born dark and dark, actually looked down on him very much and rolled his eyes at him.

How many years have no one dared to roll their eyes at him?
Chi Zhongrong was so angry that he almost raised his knife and chopped him off.

But before the little jailer waited for him to make a move, he jumped to avoid it.

The little jailer put one hand on his hips and pointed to his nose with the other, mocking him.

"What are you doing, the mother of this servant is the servant of the admiral's wife, if you hurt this servant, my mother can make the princess give the admiral a pillow breeze with one word from my mother!

You know, the admiral's wife is the famous Princess Weiyang, the folk red thread empress, a fairy-like person! "

This little jailer is exactly Xia Ou with a human skin mask on.

Now, she has learned a little bit from her mother, and she has also learned a little bit of disguise, and she is here just to make money.

Yesterday the admiral told her that Chi Zhongrong would be here today, and he would definitely check on Lu Ke in the prison.

When the bandit leader enters the urn, Gao Ying must be greeted far away!
At the same time, she smelled the smell of silver, and came over to guard the prison door...

"Hmph!" Even though Chi Zhongrong has been in the cottage, he has heard that Ji Mianhua has a daughter-in-law who is so spoiled.

It's not easy for him to make trouble before he has figured out the situation.

Chi Zhongrong had no choice but to take out another bank note and throw it on the young jailer.

Xia Ou picked up the bank note, and saw that it was only 50 taels, pursed her mouth, and said in a very disgusted tone, "The gate of the yamen opens to the south, don't come in if you have a reason and no money."

As she said that, she skillfully folded the banknotes, put them in her sleeve pocket, and stretched out her small hand to point to Chi Zhongrong's purse.

It implies that the other party has not given enough money.

Chi Zhongrong: "..."

People have to bow their heads under the roof.

Seeing that the little jailer still had no intention of giving way, he could only throw the entire purse to him.

Sure enough, Xia Ou saw that Qian's eyes were wide open, and asked people to go in to see Lu Ke.

Chi Zhongrong spent a lot of money to enter the prison and meet the person he wanted to see.

Luke's hair was messed up, and the prison uniform on his body was stained with blood, filthy, and his limbs were wearing wooden shackles and iron shackles. It looked like he had been severely punished.

And when Lu Ke saw Chi Zhongrong, his expression was very excited.

Regardless of the pain on his body, he was about to stand up, but he couldn't even get up, he could only open his mouth with its tongue cut out, howling like a beast.

This time, Chi Zhongrong was completely relieved.

At this moment, he and that greedy little jailer are much more pleasing to the eye.

He walked out of the prison, and said to his accompanying subordinates, "Now I can sit back and relax!"
