Chapter 14 Xuzhou Inspector
Sheyang Shanqu Mountain.

Half waist house.

"Jingzu, you and I haven't seen each other for a long time."

An old man with gray hair and a resolute face smiled and looked at another old man about the same age as him.

The other old man had black hair and a thin body, and there were a few patches in the fine clothes on his body.

It is conceivable that in order to see a friend whom I have not seen for many years, I have put on my best clothes to show my solemnity.

"It's been about ten years." The old man in Chinese clothes responded with a smile, feeling a little nostalgic in his heart.

When he was young, he traveled thousands of miles from Bohai to Yingchuan to study. At that time, there were no less than a hundred scholars under his teacher's command, and the two of them were the most outstanding among them.

He debated his views every day for two days. Although he was red-faced every day, he also established a deep friendship during that time.

It is a pity that he returned to Bohai to observe mourning for three years.

When they returned to Yingchuan, they got the news that Hu Zhao had gone to Xuzhou, and the two never saw each other again.

Now that he is the governor of Xuzhou, the first thing he does is to find out where Hu Zhao is.

The two of them hadn't seen each other for many years, and under the agitation of their emotions, they had no intention of arguing for a while.

"Jingzu, your new official has not been in Tan County for repairs, why did you come to Guangling?"

The old man in fine clothes hesitated for a while, thinking, if this old guy knew that I came to see him specially, even if he didn’t laugh at me now, he would laugh at me later, so it’s better not to talk to him.

So he coughed slightly and said, "The prefect of Guangling told me that there is a wealthy family in Guangling, who commit all kinds of crimes, rape, humiliate and plunder, and plunder by force. They are really the nemesis of the people and moths of the Han Dynasty. So I came to Guangling to find out the news. .”

The gray-haired old man nodded doubtfully after hearing this.

He has lived in Guangling for more than ten years, why has he never heard of such a domineering wealthy family.

But he has been living in seclusion in this mountain for five or six years, and it is not necessarily true that there have been wealthy families like he said during this period of time?
The gray old man thought to himself, he doesn't know, but his disciple must know, he can ask his disciple to help investigate, and that disciple is his pride now.

So he said proudly, "Respecting the ancestors, where is the rich family gathered, and who is the owner of the family? I have a disciple who is considered to have a small influence in Guangling. Tell me, and I will ask that disciple to help you find out." How about it?"

Normally speaking, the forces that have been entrenched in one side for a long time are more popular than bureaucrats like them who leave as soon as their terms expire, so the gray old man's words are not aimless.

The old man in rich clothes knelt down and said, "That wealthy family is gathered in Guangling County."

The gray old man nodded slightly.

His disciple is also in Guangling County.

"The owner's surname is Chen."

The gray old man looked strange, and his disciple also had a bad temper.

"Age sixteen."

His disciple is also sixteen.

"One word for a single name."

The grizzled old man has no expression on his face, it's time to see off the guests, and we can't continue chatting today.

At this time, a servant ran from outside the door.

The grizzled old man looked shocked.

You don't need to tell me what I think, you know it?

The servant knelt on the ground and said, "Master, Master Chen is here and said he would stay here tonight."

The gray old man was overjoyed at first, "Where is he? Go and let my old wife pull out some chili plants."

Then he realized that the old man in Chinese clothes was also here, and immediately changed his face, "Didn't you see that I have a distinguished guest here? Go quickly and let that bastard go as far as you can. What if you bump into a distinguished guest?"

At this time, a lazy voice came from outside the house, "No need, teacher, I'm already here."

The old man in Chinese clothes turned his eyes to the door.

I saw a young man with bright eyes, full lips and clean teeth, and a free and easy temperament in his gestures and gestures, walked in, bowed to the gray old man, and then sat down casually.

The old man in Chinese clothes couldn't help secretly praising his good looks.

The gray old man smiled wryly.

I thought to myself that if you don't come early, you won't be late, but you come at this time.

Now I'm in a trap.

The old man in Chinese clothes looked at him and wondered, did Kong Ming live in seclusion and be stupid?Should disciples come to introduce me to disciples, introduce disciples to me?
So he said, "Kong Ming, what is this?"

The gray old man covered his eyes with his hands, thinking how to get around.

At this moment the young man said, "My name is Chen, my name is Lei, and my name is Qingyuan."

The gray old man is his teacher Hu Zhao.

After hearing this, the old man in Chinese clothes understood.

Suddenly, he changed his mind and wanted to tease Hu Zhao. Judging from his performance, he should be very concerned about this disciple.

He slapped the table and snapped, "Do you know who I am?"

Chen Lei was picking up his teacup to drink tea, when suddenly someone yelled, his hands trembled, and he even choked on the water.

After coughing twice, Chen Lei put down the teacup, ignoring his teacher's suggestive eyes, and said in a cold voice, "Boy, I don't know."

"I am Ba Zhi, governor of Xuzhou!"

Chen Lei was not intimidated by his identity, and said perfunctorily, "I've heard about it."

He knew that Xuzhou had changed a new governor years ago, but Chen Lei did not expect to meet Ba Zhi in his teacher's secluded place not long after he took office.

Then Chen Lei thought about it again, the person who investigated the Chen family in Guangling County a few days ago was undoubtedly Ba Zhi.

Although it was time for Ju Xiaolian, Ba Zhi had just been appointed in Xuzhou, and the first thing he did during his tenure could not be Ju Xiaolian, so someone had to report him.

He could think of a few people who still held grudges against him, and he had driven them to Zhao Yu's place either explicitly or covertly.

So there is only one answer.

Chen Lei took it for granted and said, "Zhao Yu sent someone to report to you."

Ba Zhi didn't deny it, and snorted coldly, "So what?"

Although he had already discovered in the past few days of investigation, the Chen family in Guangling was not the wealthy family who bullied men and women as Zhao Yu said, on the contrary, everyone praised them.

But this did not stop him from teasing Hu Zhao.

Seeing Hu Zhao like that, pursing his lips for a while, staring his eyes for a while, is a hundred times more interesting than when he saw it before.

Ba Zhi hid his joy in his heart, and continued to sneer, "Your Chen family did all kinds of evil in Guangling, no one cared about it before, now, hehe."

Chen Lei spread his hands and said, "Isn't that right? Sir? Have you ever investigated? Without investigation, you have no right to speak!"

A gleam flashed in Ba Zhi's eyes.

Although he didn't know what 'Ah Snake' was, the saying that there is no right to speak without investigation really spoke to his heart.

"As the prefect of a county, Zhao Yu can't lie to me."

In fact, when those words were said, Chen Lei realized that Ba Zhi had investigated in Guangling, and after carefully observing Ba Zhi's eyes, he found that he looked at his teacher Hu Zhao from time to time, so he knew that Ba Zhi was using him to tease him. He learned from Hu Zhao to play.

Then he said helplessly, "Master Ba, you have already investigated, why bother making fun of the child?"

Ba Zhi laughed loudly, drank his tea and said nothing.

Hu Zhao immediately looked at Ba Zhi with unkind eyes.

Are you trying to scare me with my disciples?
My heart is ruthless, just wait for me!
Then he called the servant and whispered a few words.
