behind them.

Still following Han Xing and Wang Feng!

And [-] soldiers in solid clothes!

Zhang Dun waved his hand and said, "Surround this place!"

"promise!"

Han Xing and Wang Feng responded excitedly.

They have seen what happened in Jinyang County in the past two months.

Both of them can see clearly who is helping the disaster victims, helping the chief manager's office, and who is obstructing them from doing things.

As for Chen Ran and the dozen or so gentry, they had long wanted to deal with them.

But Zhang Dun didn't intend to do this!

Now, Zhang Dun ordered!

Surround them!

In an instant, under the leadership of Han Xing and Wang Feng, three hundred soldiers surrounded the entire Chen residence.

From the door, to the courtyard, to the door of the main house, there are burly soldiers standing with their palms on the handles of their knives!

The throats of more than a dozen gentry moved, and the panic in their eyes could not be concealed.

"Cough cough!"

At this moment, Chen Ran, who was lying on the couch, coughed and sat up.

He watched Zhang Dun, Du Yan, and Changsun Wuji walk in with a calm face, cupped his hands slightly and said: "Zhang Shaoyin, Du Gong, Changsun Gong, I am sick, so I cannot stand up and salute."

"It's okay."

Zhang Dun put his hands behind his back, and said with a smile: "Whether you can stay in the bed, or whether you can salute, it doesn't matter now."

Chen Ran was silent for a few seconds before he said, "I understand this."

"Zhang Shaoyin came here this time for the sake of the victims' fields?"

"Yes."

Zhang Dun said with a smile on his face: "I told you at the beginning that I will work with my colleagues in the General Manager's Mansion to help the victims of the disaster make money."

"When the disaster victims have money, they will come to you to redeem their fields."

"Now that the General Manager's Mansion has money, the victims will naturally have money."

"So I'm here this time to ask you to return the victims' fields."

"Do you have an opinion?"

What's the point of having an opinion now?

Chen Ran looked behind Zhang Dun, looked at the government soldiers standing at the door and in the yard, sighed, and said, "At this point, the old man has nothing to say."

"We have the number of fields we have merged. As long as Zhang Shaoyin gives enough money, those fields will naturally be given to you."

As soon as the words fell, more than a dozen gentry became anxious, "Old Chen!"

Chen Ran waved his hand and said in a hoarse voice: "You don't need to say anything, if you still want to live, just follow Zhang Shaoyin's words."

Hearing this, the expressions of a dozen gentry changed drastically.

From Chen Ran's words, they heard that if Zhang Dun didn't follow what Zhang Dun said this time, he might raise his butcher knife and aim at them!

"Elder Chen can still see clearly."

Zhang Dun didn't even look at the other wealthy gentry, and said with a smile: "I will explain the truth today."

"If the imperial court finds out what you did in Jinyang County, it would not be a pity to die ten thousand times."

Zhang Dun said it with a smile, but what he heard made the hearts of a dozen gentry chill.

This is murder!

Chen Ran raised his head, stared at him, and said: "Zhang Shaoyin, you are right. What we did in Hedong Road, it is indeed not a pity to die ten thousand times."

"It's just that the old man doesn't understand. After Zhang Shaoyin came to Hedong Road, why didn't he show his cards with us immediately? Didn't he ask our Xingshi for his crimes?"

"Why do you need to go to such trouble?"

Du Yan and Changsun Wuji pursed their lips and looked at Zhang Dun's back at the same time.

Chen Ran's confusion was also their confusion.

If it were the two of them, after they came to the chief executive's mansion, the first time they regained power, they would definitely attack Chen Ran and these dozen gentry!

They are the chief culprit of this man-made disaster.

Get rid of them and the rest will be much easier.

As for the land they acquired, they can get it back without spending a penny!

So they don't understand.

Why did Zhang Dun go to such an effort!

Zhang Dun shook his head and said, "Are you guilty?"

Chen Ran smiled.

Du Yan and Changsun Wuji were stunned for a moment, and lowered their heads to think about his words.

Zhang Dun continued: "You have already pushed all the crimes on Sun Xue and Lu Zitao in advance."

"The crime of annexing land, can that count as a crime?"

"When will the famine buying and selling land not happen?"

"Business, one is willing to sell and the other is willing to buy, how can you be convicted? Convict you who bought the land, do you want to convict the disaster victims who sold the land? If it is because of the conviction, everyone in the world will know that if there is another natural disaster, there will be fields in the disaster-stricken land. And if no one dares to accept it, what should we do?"

Zhang Dun said in an unhurried tone: "So I can't convict you with this."

"After all, you are shameless, and the court still needs this face!"

"If I really want to arrest you, then the court will be the one who will lose face."

"As the Shaoyin of the Jingzhao Mansion, the imperial envoy who came to Hedong Road this time, the first thing to do is to solve the problem of Hedong Road. To put it bluntly, it is to solve the livelihood of the victims."

"Comforting the victims is the top priority."

"As for you, it's just a small matter that can be easily resolved."

Zhang Dun raised his mouth slightly, stared at Chen Ran, and said in a calm tone: "After all, your family property is all in Hedong Road. Is this official afraid that you will run away?"

"Since you don't know how to run, why don't you settle it at any time? For example... now!"

Chapter 308 Zhang Shaoyin, is it time to return to Beijing?

In the huge main house of the Chen family, there was a deathly silence.

Listening to Zhang Dun's words, more than a dozen gentry broke out in cold sweat.

Only Chen Ran laughed out loud and said, "Zhang Shaoyin, you are a talented prime minister."

"Hedong Road is in such a mess, you can take care of it. I really can't think of anything in this world that can stop you."

After finishing speaking, he sighed, "Fighting with you is the worst move I've ever made."

"housekeeper!"

He yelled, and the housekeeper hurried over.

Chen Ran said in a deep voice: "Take out all the land deeds and house deeds you received a few months ago and hand them over to Zhang Shaoyin."

"No." The housekeeper bowed in response.

The faces of a dozen gentry were ashen, and Chen Ran was convinced, what else could they do.

"We're also going to get the land and house deeds."

"Zhang Shaoyin wait a moment."

Everyone hurriedly turned around and left quickly.

In an instant, the huge main house became empty.

Looking at the backs of a dozen gentry leaving, Chen Ran pursed his lips and remained silent for a few seconds before he said, "Zhang Shaoyin, what do you plan to do with us?"

Zhang Dun smiled and said, "Old Chen, where are Sun Xue and Lu Zitao?"

"You, shouldn't have killed them?"

Chen Ran raised his head, stared at him and said, "You want the old man to hand them over to you?"

Zhang Dun asked back: "The chaos in Hedong Road was all caused by them. If you don't blame them, do you think I can go back to the court?"

"If I hand them over to you..."

Chen Ran narrowed his eyes and said, "Is there still a way out for the old man and those gentry who just left?"

"You don't have to pay."

Zhang Dun shook his head and said, "To be honest, it doesn't matter if we have them or not."

"After all, when Sun Xue and Lu Zitao met us, they had already told the whole story."

"Old Chen, do you understand what I mean?"

"..."

Chen Ran turned paler, "Can I ask Zhang Shaoyin to speak more clearly?"

Zhang Dun tilted his head and said: "Give them to me, and I can report to the court, and I will punish you lightly. If you don't hand over, the lightest punishment for you, those gentry, and your family members is exile."

"understood."

Chen Ran laughed miserably, "The old man will send them to the chief manager's mansion soon."

"So best."

Zhang Dun hummed, and when the steward delivered the victims' house deeds and land deeds, he turned around and left with his things.

Du Yan and Changsun Wuji looked at each other, and followed out silently.

"Vice General Han, Vice General Wang, send people to watch at the Chen family, and when they bring Sun Xue and Lu Zitao out, they will arrest and bring them to justice immediately."

After leaving the Chen family, Zhang Dun spoke to Han Xing and Wang Feng who were following behind him.

The two looked solemn, clasped their fists together and said, "No!"

Du Yan followed behind him, breathed out, and said, "Zhang Shaoyin, you've already figured out how to deal with Chen Ran and those ten gentry, right?"

Zhang Dun glanced back at him, "Need to say? Sun Xue and Lu Zitao were the main culprits for the chaos in Hedong Road, but Chen Ran and the dozen or so gentry were also inseparably involved."

"The reason why we don't do anything to them is because things are prioritized, and the main thing is to resettle the victims first."

"The disaster victims are resettled now, how can they ignore it?"

"However, Sun Xue and Lu Zitao are in their hands, so they have to hand them over first."

"Without these two people, we would be missing something when we return to Beijing."

"You are very scheming." Changsun Wuji said with emotion: "That Chen Ran has a saying, and what he said is reasonable. You really have the talent of a prime minister."

Zhang Dun smiled and said: "Then when you return to Beijing this time, Changsun Shangshu recommends me to His Majesty as a prime minister?"

Changsun Wuji looked at him and said, "You have a seat in the Political Affairs Hall, what's the difference between you and the prime minister?"

Zhang Dun rolled his eyes, he said it against his will, and being a member of political affairs belongs to political affairs, can he be compared with the prime minister?

Prime Minister, he has real power in his hands!

Du Yan asked curiously, "Zhang Shaoyin, what are you going to do with Chen Ran and the dozen or so gentry?"

Zhang Dun pondered and said: "Before returning to Beijing, I plan to write a memorial to His Majesty. Their end will probably be that they lost their property."

Changsun Wuji snorted coldly and said, "That's not bad. These bastards rely on money to make a living. If they don't have money, let's see how they gain a foothold in Jinyang County."

"Stop talking about that."

Zhang Dun smiled and patted the house deed and field deed in his hand, and said: "With these things, we can completely solve the problem of Hedong Road."
