Hope for luck

Chapter 78

Facing Gao Pan's dominance, Zhou Zhengxin and Geng Gengchen had no choice but to walk into the prison consciously, obeyed Gao Pan's arrangement, and prepared to spend the night in this big prison.

At this moment, both of them couldn't sleep. When did the two county government masters want to live in such a dilapidated cell?

Thinking about the two of them, how can I say that they are also officials of the ninth rank and the eighth rank, but they are so frightened that they can only obey Gao Pan's words and come to live in prison?

"Master Zhou..."

Geng Gengchen couldn't help calling out, Zhou Zhengxin was a little stunned at this time.

The two of them are now in a rather large prison. Compared with other prisons, this prison is much cleaner, but there is only one bed and one table.

Looking at Zhou Zhengxin outside the prison, his heart is a little complicated at the moment. He has been an official for so long, and one day he will be regarded as a "prisoner" and "shut up" in this prison.

Hearing Geng Gengchen's call, he woke up from his contemplation, glanced back at Geng Gengchen and said:

"What? Master Geng, what do you think?"

Hearing this, Geng Gengchen looked very unwilling:
"The two of us haven't committed a crime, why should we spend the night in this prison?"

After hearing this, Zhou Zhengxin stared at him with wide eyes:
"Master Geng, everyone will say in hindsight, why did you not refute when Gao Pan ordered you to come in, but now you are complaining here? He didn't force you to come in, Mr. Geng either!"

Geng Gengchen originally thought that Zhou Zhengxin's indignation would be aroused when he said such a thing, but unexpectedly, Zhou Zhengxin questioned him instead.

This made Geng Gengchen's face change instantly, and he was a little aggrieved and didn't know how to refute. After thinking about it, he still blushed and said:

"Our letter will be delivered to the Dusi Yamen no later than tomorrow afternoon. Within three days, Gao Pan's death is bound to come!"

Speaking of before, Zhou Zhengxin probably felt that what Geng Gengchen said was indeed correct.

But after going through so many things, his heart began to waver. Zhou Zhengxin even thought, could Gao Pan be lucky enough to turn danger into luck?Seek advantages and avoid disadvantages?
Otherwise, why every time they feel that Gao Pan is bound to suffer, in the end, Gao Pan has nothing to do.

From finding out his private stash of autumn food, rectifying the regiment training camp, and suppressing the mighty Du family, to this moment, he and Geng Gengchen had no choice but to obey his orders!
Thinking of this, Zhou Zhengxin's face became serious, thinking, where did Gao Pan get the confidence to detain Wei Yan'an and the grain supervisors?

You know, if this matter is known, Gao Pan, the county magistrate, must be the leader, or even beheaded.

But Gao Pan still did this, and at this moment Zhou Zhengxin had fully understood that Gao Pan was not a stupefied young man, but a man of foresight and foresight.

This shows that Gao Pan must have his confidence, and Gao Pan knows that Wei Yan'an is the son of Dongshan Dusi, but he still boldly detains him.

Gao Pan must have thought that it was a good way to retreat, otherwise, he would not be able to do so.

Listening to how naive and ridiculous it seems to be that Gao Pan on Geng Gengchen's left is doomed, and another Gao Pan's death is approaching.

Thinking about it again, Gao Pan held the evidence of his private possession of imperial taxes, Zhou Zhengxin lost all thoughts at this moment.

"Lord Zhou, why is this so? Let him be arrogant now, and in a few days, Lord Du Si will be furious. Maybe he will directly send someone to kidnap him! At that time, you and I will have the final say in Dantang County?"

Seeing that Zhou Zhengxin looked a little lost, Geng Gengchen thought he was afraid, and couldn't help but comfort him.

When Zhou Zhengxin heard these words, he felt both ridiculous and sad, and waved his hands slowly:
"Master Geng, it's getting late at night, and I'm tired too. Go to sleep first. If Mr. Geng can't fall asleep, just stand there!"

As he said that, Zhou Zhengxin didn't care that the only bed in this prison was not clean, so he just lay down on it.

This made Geng Gengchen's face froze for an instant, and he looked at the scene in front of him in disbelief. Zhou Zhengxin seemed to have given up fighting Gao Pan?
After a while, Geng Gengchen came back to his senses and looked contemptuously at Zhou Zhengxin who was lying on the bed sprawled at the moment.

I still thought in my heart, if Gao Pan was taken away, or dismissed as the county magistrate, he would be stronger in the future, and Zhou Zhengxin was too small-hearted, so he gave up, what a pity!
Thinking of this, Geng Gengchen felt an indescribable sense of superiority, because right now, only he still firmly believes that Gao Pan will inevitably suffer, and he is the one who has the last laugh!
The more he thought about it, the more excited Geng Gengchen became, he even stroked his beard and thought, what would it be like if he sat on the magistrate's post from now on?
Naturally, he had no mood to sleep, and even thought of the excitement, he still walked back and forth in the prison.

Sometimes he patted his thigh, and sometimes he smiled, forming a stark contrast with Zhou Zhengxin who was already sleeping soundly at the moment.
Seeing this, the guards outside all shook their heads, thinking, this Master Geng is crazy, right?
……

The next day, on the ninth day of October, early in the morning, just as the city gate of Dantang County was opened, a group of people rode into the city of Dantang County on horseback and came quickly towards the county government.

The door of the Dantang county government office just opened the door at this moment, when they heard a loud noise coming from the door, quickly looked up, and found a dozen people riding horses to the county government door.

"According to the order of the governor, pass the order to the magistrate of Dantang County!"

The leader didn't intend to get off his horse, but shouted condescendingly.

The two sects saw that all these people were all dressed in banners, and said that they had obeyed the order of the governor, so how could they dare to bear it, so they hurried in to pass the news.

In the backyard of the county government office, Gao Pan has also woken up, and the high-intensity self-discipline of his previous life was still brought into this world by him.

Although he tossed back and forth for a long time last night, Gao Pan could only fall asleep at the ugly time, but just after dawn, Gao Pan got up from the warm bed to do morning exercises.

As the basic martial arts learned became more and more proficient, Gao Pan began to feel that every movement he made carried a different force, and his whole body felt endless.

"My lord, someone from the yamen outside sent a message, saying that someone was ordered by the governor, and asked him to go out to receive the order!"

At this moment, Gao Pan heard the hasty words of the maid who was on duty outside the courtyard, and quickly stopped his movements, and said in a low voice:

"The officer knows, here we come!"

After speaking, he looked at the back room again, and seeing no movement, Gao Pan walked out of the backyard in his casual clothes.

When Gao Pan didn't come back last night, Peng Lanshu had been waiting for Gao Pan. She didn't lie down to rest until Gao Pan came back and fell asleep.

Otherwise, on weekdays, at this moment Peng Lanshu has prepared hot water for Gao Pan, and Gao Pan only needs to change and wash.

Seeing that there was no movement in the back room, Gao Pan didn't want to disturb Peng Lanshu. For her, getting enough sleep right now is very important.

For the two, Gao Pan felt that it didn't matter if he went to receive the order in casual clothes. If he changed his clothes again, it would be bad if the person who sent the order had to wait for a long time.
