The fact that Tang Jianqiu accepted two prisoners who had learned from past mistakes as Jinyi guards quickly spread throughout the entire Beizhen Fusi.
It is said that this can be passed down from ten to ten, and it can be used in any place, even in the Zhenfu Department where all the big men are.
Logically speaking, this is not a bad thing. After all, this is the decision made by Tang Jianqiu himself as the governor, but there are always some people who harbor resentment.
Zhao Jingzhong expressed dissatisfaction after receiving the news, not to mention that he was extremely disgusted with Tang Jianqiu.
In order to ensure the authenticity of the news, he first grabbed the person next to him and asked him.
"Master Tang really accepted those two traitors?"
Zhao Jingzhong had doubts about this matter. For him, no matter how good Tang Jianqiu was, it was still fake, and he was sure that Tang Jianqiu was just pretending to show others.
The Jinyiwei under his command didn't think much about it, but bowed and clasped his fists and replied: "Exactly."
Zhao Jingzhong was extremely angry, and the rage in his eyes was overwhelming. He wished he could cut Tang Jianqiu into pieces right now!
"Well, you Tang Jianqiu, you really dare to take in anyone! If such a vicious thief dares to take in, isn't this the danger of raising a tiger? Don't let anything happen, otherwise he, a small governor, can't afford it."
While speaking, Zhao Jingzhong did not forget to clench his fist tightly. If it weren't for the fact that there was no tea cup beside him, he would definitely smash it!
Jin Yiwei hesitated for a moment after hearing this. Even if he had some opinions about Tang Jianqiu, he would not say them to his face.
Furthermore, they were somewhat unsure about this matter and it was difficult to intervene.
At first he didn't want to say it, but after much hesitation he decided to tell the truth: "But Master Qianhu, Master Tang must have his reasons for doing this."
When Zhao Jingzhong heard this, he frowned angrily, and the anger he had accumulated for many years was like a dam bursting.
He was very angry. He looked down on Tang Jianqiu to begin with, but now all the subordinates he managed spoke for Tang Jianqiu. How could he not be angry?
"There's a ridiculous truth! It's just a woman's kindness. Do you really think that our Beizhen Fusi can accept any bad person? We are not afraid of making a joke. After all, is he Tang Jianqiu the commander or Tian Ergeng!"
However, Jin Yiwei Xiaoqi was as frightened as if he had been struck by lightning. His face was full of horror, and he almost knelt down and called the other party's ancestor.
"Sir Qianhu, you must not call these two adults by their names!"
You know, if you are discovered, you can't afford to suffer!
One of the two men has a high official position, and the other holds real power.
Zhao Jingzhong didn't take it seriously. In his eyes, Tang Jianqiu was a hypocrite who put on airs and relied on others to get his position.
"Why not? I have to say it! If it weren't for Lu Kui, he would be a thousand households at most, not a governor!"
Zhao Jingzhong spoke louder and angrier, wishing that Tang Jianqiu would listen to his words.
Jinyiwei Xiaoqi broke out in cold sweat. He seemed to have never expected that Zhao Jingzhong would be so hostile to Tang Jianqiu, let alone that he would say such shocking remarks in front of so many people.
He pondered for a moment and then said: "Master Qianhu, your words have wiped out all the efforts of Master Tang.
Although the brothers do have objections to him, it is undeniable that Mr. Tang's contribution to our Beizhen Fusi is not even a little bit. "
Zhao Jingzhong looked sideways at him, he was filled with anger and even kicked Xiao Qi hard while speaking.
He was very dissatisfied and shouted angrily in the hall: "What? What benefits did Tang Jianqiu give you! You actually spoke for this guy, I'm really angry!"
Realizing that what he said might be a little uncomfortable, Jin Yiwei Xiaoqi changed his words and said:
"Master Qianhu, the younger one is on Ning's side, but he is afraid of being heard by Master Tang. Besides, it's useless even if you are angry! Master Tang must have his reasons for doing this."
Xiao Qi was about to continue talking, but Zhao Jingzhong was not happy and made a gesture to stop there.
"Don't let me hear you speak for him again! The position of governor originally belongs to me!"
No matter how dissatisfied Zhao Jingzhong is, he can't change the fact that he is a member of the fifth-grade Qianhu household. He can only lament that his fate is unfair. If he had a better birth, I'm afraid everything would be his!
He swore that if one day he got hold of Tang Jianqiu, he would not let him go easily!
Zhao Jingzhong was filled with resentment, but Tang Jianqiu, who was at the gate of Fusi in Beizhen, felt an inexplicable chill. This feeling only lasted for a moment.
He didn't pay attention, but he just kept his calm mind. Unexpectedly, the guard in charge of guarding came to report in a hurry.
He seemed to have seen some terrifying figure, with a look of panic on his face, and hurriedly reported to Tang Jianqiu:
"Sir, someone is looking for you."
"Looking for me? Who?"
Tang Jianqiu was very curious. He didn't remember that anyone would come to him during this time.
Shili did not directly answer the questions raised by Tang Jianqiu.
He hesitated for a moment, thought again and again before answering: "This... sir, she said that she is your sir, and she also said that you will go see her."
"oh?"
Tang Jianqiu was a little curious when the other party said that, but the other party refused to call her by name, and even said he was her lord.
The other party only said that he would definitely go to see her, could it be...
"Okay, you go and invite her to the hall, and I, the governor, will come to see her right away."
"yes!"
Sly replied with his fists clasped, then backed away.
Tang Jianqiu became more and more curious. He was wondering who that person was and why he had to see him.
With this heart in mind, Tang Jianqiu rushed to the hall alone. As soon as he arrived, he saw the girl who looked like a red Hibiscus flower.
Her captivating dark eyes, coupled with her exquisite makeup, exuded her unique charm like a flame, giving people a sense of national beauty and heavenly fragrance. The moment she appeared, it seemed as if the whole world was eclipsed.
When he saw her, Tang Jianqiu was startled and almost lost his consciousness. He seemed to be stunned by the beauty of this girl.
Before Tang Jianqiu could speak first, Shen Hongluan spoke first: "What? I still can't control you?"
Hearing this, Tang Jianqiu choked instantly and didn't know how to answer.
"Tang Jianqiu, if I don't take the initiative to find you, I'm afraid you may not see me before we get married."
"How could that happen? It turns out to be General Shen. Please sit down. I wonder what the general is looking for here?"
In private, you might not care so much, but since you are in Beizhen Fusi, your attitude is naturally different.
In other words, it is a routine matter, and of course one must pay attention to propriety.
Shen Hongluan was furious when she heard this. She had never seen a man with such a bad memory.
She frowned and said in annoyance: "No need! You idiot, how can you be so forgetful? You have successfully won the first prize in the martial arts competition, but you still refuse to come to the Shen family to propose marriage. Is it because you have no self in your heart?"
Tang Jianqiu panicked instantly. He stepped forward in a hurry. He was thinking of saying something nice to coax him, but he didn't know where to start, so the words tasted bad on his lips.
"General Shen, don't think so. Beizhen Fusi has been too busy recently. I hope General Shen..."
However, Shen Hongluan made a stop gesture to express that she did not want to hear it. She believed that this was just Tang Jianqiu's excuse.
"Every time I come to see you, I always excuse myself with the excuse of important matters. Since the governor is busy with official duties, why should I, as a general, bother you? Don't forget the wedding date when you get married in the future."
Tang Jianqiu's face was stunned. Shen Hongluan did find him several times in his previous life, but at that time, he didn't understand the so-called love between a man and a woman at all. He only thought it was secular or shackles, and he was only a hindsight.
He knew he was in the wrong, so he didn't dare to argue, so he just used these words: "How could it be? Don't worry, General Shen, no matter how busy he is, he will definitely complete the marriage between you and me."
Hearing this, Shen Hongluan's anger was reduced by half, but even so, she was still a little unhappy. She said in a threatening tone: "If you don't come, be careful I call you Tang Guaiguai!"
When Tang Jianqiu heard that, was he okay? Being called such a name in front of so many brothers, especially if Ah Fei, a big mouth, hears it, his lifelong reputation will be ruined!
"General Shen, calm down. Tang will apologize to you. How about I inform Gao Tang in a few days?"
Tang Jianqiu has never been so out of control. Although he is not good at words, his feelings for Shen Hongluan are genuine. If anyone wants to compete with him, he may go crazy.
Shen Hongluan's mood improved slightly, "This is like a human saying. In case you regret it, you must give me something!"
In other words, it was a token of love. Although Tang Jianqiu was a piece of wood, he was not dead, and he quickly understood the hidden meaning of her words.
"What does the general want?"
"The governor will just give it to you."
Shen Hongluan was somewhat looking forward to what kind of surprise this murderous evil spirit in the eyes of outsiders would give him.
Tang Jianqiu hesitated and thought for a moment.
What valuable things does a man like him have? That's probably the only thing I can think of.
So, Tang Jianqiu took off the unicorn pattern jade pendant from his waist and gave it away.
This jade is green in color and made of fine material. It is round in shape and has a round hole in the middle, which makes it look like the sky. If you look closely, you will see that it is carved with various exquisite patterns.
The most obvious ones are the auspicious clouds and unicorns, which symbolize longevity, good fortune and wealth. The entire jade pendant has smooth lines and exquisite craftsmanship, exuding a mysterious and noble atmosphere.
Seeing that Tang Jianqiu was not hopeless, Shen Hongluan inadvertently showed a satisfied smile.
As the saying goes, looking back and smiling brings beauty, not to mention that Shen Hongluan was a woman who gave off a stunning beauty without any makeup. It was this smile that made Tang Jianqiu's soul linger in his dreams.
Shen Hongluan was about to reach out and take it, but what Tang Jianqiu said surprised her;
"But think carefully, if you accept my jade pendant, you will be my Tang family's wife."
Shen Hongluan was quite surprised. She didn't seem to expect that these words came from Tang Jianqiu, so she decided to tease him again.
"Oh? Why?"
"This thing was given to me by my grandmother. She specifically told me that this thing can only be given to the girl she recognizes. I wonder if Miss Shen is willing to accept it?"
"That's natural."
Shen Hongluan reached out to take it without thinking and held it in her hand. At the same time, she placed her favorite silver peacock hairpin in Tang Jianqiu's hand as a witness.
"Tang Jianqiu, if you have lost this thing, please come and see me!"
"Don't worry, Miss Shen. Even if I lose my head, I won't lose my belongings!"
As Tang Jianqiu held this delicate hairpin in his hand, Shen Hongluan also placed it in her cuffs very carefully.
"This is the best, Mr. Tang, take your leave!"
"General Shen, go slowly. I will see you off personally."
Tang Jianqiu was a little careless. It would have been better if only the two of them were present at that time, but the most important thing was that there were still several people guarding the hall, and they saw everything that happened in Fengcai.
They had never thought that the living King of Hell in the eyes of outsiders would have such a special side. It was really rare, and his attitude towards them was completely different.
If Ah Fei hadn't been there, he would have looked at Tang Jianqiu with a mean look, and said a few words to the brothers around him, insisting that Tang Jianqiu would fine him his salary.
After Tang Jianqiu sent Shen Hongluan to the gate of Fusi in Beizhen, word had spread that he was planning to propose marriage to the Shen family.
Once this gentleman starts gossiping, there is nothing to say. Some even think that Tang Jianqiu is the blooming of the iron tree.
Since Beizhen Fusi has been busy recently and couldn't spare any time, Tang Jianqiu had no choice but to send a letter to Fei Ge to inform his parents of his intention to acquire Shen Hongluan.
The marriage proposal ceremony needs to be handled by the groom's parents, which means that he does not have to worry about the marriage proposal for the time being. He will appear when necessary.
"A Fei, you have been staring at the wood for a long time, what are you doing?"
Tang Jianqiu couldn't understand. There was nothing special about this wooden stake. He really didn't know the reason why he had been interested in it for a long time.
I originally thought that Ah Fei was lost in thought, but who would have expected that he would be greeted by such words: "I was just thinking that this wood will bloom. It is really rare."
Tang Jianqiu quickly understood A Fei's metaphor, moved his wrist, and then pressed the tiger's mouth joint.
"If you have nothing to do, I would not mind finding something for you to do."
Only then did Ah Fei realize that he had almost said the wrong thing, and he quickly covered his mouth and backed away, as if he had seen the man-eating tiger.
"I'm just happy for you! Why should I be angry? I'm going to see if the prisoner in Zhao Prison has given an explanation!"
How dare Ah Fei stay? Afraid that he would be punished by Tang Jianqiu if he stayed for even half a breath, he had no choice but to run to Zhao Prison. It was much better to just whistle in his spare time than to be punished.
Tang Jianqiu looked a little helpless. He didn't ask for anything else for the time being. He just hoped to spend the rest of his life with Shen Hongluan hand in hand. He was willing to marry her not because of any debt, but because he had already loved her to the core without knowing it.
