Chen Zheng and others ran all the way and finally returned to Dongyang County.

I had to come back two days longer than I went there. After all, there were more things on the car and the speed of the carriage was slower.

As soon as Chen Zheng's carriage arrived at the city gate, a yamen runs to the county magistrate Li Gang.

For a moment, everyone in the county government learned that Chen Zheng had captured the defected Kuaishou Yang Xu.

Without hesitation, Chen Zheng rushed the carriage to the county government office and came to see Li Gang to report his order.

When they arrived at the county government office, Chen Zheng and Yue Xiaorong got out of the carriage, Li Gang came forward to greet him in person and said, "Master Chen and his wife are so happy that they are so happy."

Chen Zheng glanced at Li Gang and was unwilling to talk to him. Until now, he was still a little resentful about the county government sending Yue Xiaorong out to arrest Yang Xu.

Li Gang knew it well and knew that he was in the wrong, so he just smiled embarrassedly and didn't continue talking.

Another carriage, Lu Renjia, Bu Zhongyao and Mei Guanxi, also got out of the car, walked to Li Gang, and replied: "Qi Bi County Magistrate, Yang Xu has been arrested."

Li Gang nodded and said, "Take him down."

Bu Zhongyao took the order and returned to the carriage, and brought Yang Xu and Liao Jiapeng down.

Yang Xu was taken off the carriage, and was unable to open his eyes by the dazzling sunlight. He narrowed his eyes and looked at Li Gang, and smiled and said, "I have met Lord Li."

Li Gang snorted coldly and said, "Yang Xu, I am taking you with you, why should you be the inner supporter of the Fusang pirates? Tell them the virtual and real defense of the county."

Yang Xu smiled and said, "Mr. Li, look at what you said. Even if I don't tell me about these situations in the county, the people of Fusang will be able to find out sooner or later."

"Is this your reason?" Li Gang asked with a glaring look.

Yang Xu nodded and admitted directly: "Yes, anyway, the other party will know sooner or later. It's better for me to tell them that they can earn some money by the way, so why not do it?"

"Shameless!" Li Gang shouted, "For the sake of his own selfish interests, he will ignore the safety of the people in the county. It is really unforgivable!"

"Mr. Li is so serious. Liao Jiapeng and I are undercover agents who have invaded the enemy. Through our continuous efforts over the years, we have transferred a lot of the pirates' property, with the purpose of dismantling them from the inside." Yang Xu defended without blushing.

Li Gang frowned and asked, "What kind of property?"

Lu Renjia was quite eye-catching and said to Bu Zhongyao and Mei Guanxi behind him: "Prepare the box from the carriage."

Bu Zhongyao and Mei Guanxi were a little unhappy. They knew how heavy the boxes were, but in front of the county magistrate Li Gang, it was difficult to directly reject Lu Renjia.

The two had to turn around, enter the carriage, and move the boxes of belongings from the carriage.

After moving back and forth several times, the two of them moved all the boxes on the carriage, and they were so tired that they were panting.

"Sir, this was seized at Yang Xu's hiding place." Lu Renjia said.

Li Gang looked at it and said, "Open all!"

So Bu Zhongyao and Mei Guanxi started to open the boxes again, one after another, and finally opened all the boxes.

Every time he opened a box, Li Gang took a breath, which seemed a little incredible.

When all the boxes were opened, Li Gang was a little shocked. After a while, he asked, "Yang Xu, why have you made so much treasure? I remember that you don't care much about money."

"Because I've been scared since I was a child, I usually don't care that it's just pretending, hehe." Yang Xu explained with a smile.

Li Gang shook his head and sighed, "Since the person has been captured, then I will be put into prison first and wait for the detention."

The two were taken down, and Yang Xu and Liao Jiapeng seemed to have some predictions about their fate, and surprisingly did not resist.

Then, Li Gang came to Chen Zheng again and said with a smile: "Master Chen and his wife have the most efforts in this matter. Let's go back and have a good rest first. The county will write down the merits clearly and ask for me for the two of them."

Chen Zheng waved his hand and said, "Mr. Li is not busy asking for merit for the first time. There is still one person in the carriage."

"Who else?" Li Gang frowned, "Is there still a fish that misses the net?"

"It's not a fish that misses the net." Chen Zheng shook his head and said, "It's an old friend of Lord Li."

"Old friend?" Li Gang became more and more confused as he heard it.

Chen Zheng shouted to the carriage: "Mr. Chen, come down by yourself. Do you still have to send someone to invite you?"

Li Gang stared at the carriage, guessing who the old friend was inside?

After a while, Chen Xicheng finally walked out of the carriage slowly. After seeing Li Gang, he felt very uncomfortable, but he still said, "Hello, Lord Li. Long time no see us."

Li Gang didn't expect it to be Chen Xicheng at all. He was so surprised that he couldn't speak.

To be honest, when Liao Jiapeng pointed out that Yang Xu's hiding place was in Qianyang Prefecture, Li Gang was worried that he would meet Chen Xicheng when he went to Qianyang Prefecture to handle a case, and the other party would definitely stop him in every way.

Therefore, before Chen Zheng set out, Li Gang asked Lu Renjia to remind Chen Zheng that he should act in a low-key manner in Qianyang Prefecture and not disturb the local government, so that he would not disturb the situation. The purpose was not to let Chen Xicheng stop them from handling the case.

But now, Chen Xicheng is standing in front of him. What is the situation?

Li Gang saw it with his own eyes. Yang Xu was arrested and had been thrown into prison. It would be too late to stop him at this time.

Could it be that this arrest was completed with the full cooperation of Qianyang Prefecture. As the representative of Qianyang Prefecture, Chen Xicheng escorted Yang Xu to Dongyang County all the way to seek credit?

After thinking for a long time but not figured it out, Li Gang had to respond: "You are okay, Lord Chen. Why don't you come to be fine?"

After hearing this, Chen Xicheng snorted coldly and said, "Do you look like I am safe?"

Li Gang was just thinking about random things, so he looked at Chen Xicheng carefully. After the other party had reminded him, Li Gang looked carefully.

Chen Xicheng looked a little embarrassed, his clothes were wrinkled, his hair was messy, not to mention his complexion, as if he was dead at home, with a sad face and no smile at all.

At this moment, Xiao Zan and Li Shuang also walked in from outside. It was obvious that they also learned that Chen Zheng had returned to Dongyang County.

"Brother Chen, you are finally back. Have you been looking for me?" Xiao Zan asked directly.

After seeing Yue Xiaorong standing beside Chen Zheng, Xiao Zan laughed again and said, "I know that as long as Brother Chen takes action, there is nothing that cannot be done."

Yue Xiaorong smiled and said, "This young master Xiao is really good at speaking."

Yue Xiaorong knew Xiao Zan's identity, but as the lord of a village, he didn't care so much about the prince or something.

Seeing that Yue Xiaorong was getting tired, Chen Zheng held her little hand and said, "Or, my wife, let's go home to rest first. When I finish dealing with the matter here, I will go home to accompany you. What's the point?"

Yue Xiaorong nodded and said, "Then my husband should hurry up, I'll wait for you at home."

After saying that, the two looked at each other affectionately for a moment, and then Yue Xiaorong pulled out her hand and walked home.

Li Shuang walked up, coughed twice, and said, "Brother Chen, don't you think about our feelings when you show your love in broad daylight?"

Chen Zheng smiled and said, "Your feelings are not important to me at all, why should I consider them?"

Li Shuang couldn't answer for a moment, but Xiao Zan saw the box on the ground.

It is really impossible to see. At this time, these boxes are all open, and the gold, silver and jewelry inside are very eye-catching.

"What are these?" Xiao Zan couldn't help asking.

Li Gang smiled slightly and said, "Young Master Xiao, these are the property transferred from Yang Xu and Liao Jiapeng from the Fusang pirates."

"So many!" Xiao Zan exclaimed. Even as the prince, he had never seen so many property.

Chen Zheng walked over and said, "Brother Xiao, look at the funds used for the establishment of the whaling team. What do you think?"

Xiao Zan thought for a while, then nodded and said, "I think it's very good! Lord Li, what do you think?"

Li Gang actually wanted to use this batch of property as the finance department of Dongyang County, but now Chen Zheng and Xiao Zan have both spoken and want to use it for the funding to set up a whaling team, so he was embarrassed to speak.

After all, these property were confiscated by Chen Zheng himself, so Li Gang is not easy to be tough.

"Originally, this county also feels it's excellent." Li Gang echoed.

Xiao Zan was overjoyed, and suddenly he felt that he was rich, which surprised him very much.

Looking at Xiao Zan's happy look, Chen Zheng smiled slightly and said, "Brother Xiao, you don't know that on our way back, someone was paying attention to these property and was going to rob him."

Xiao Zan's face changed. Now these belongings have become his. When he heard that someone wanted to steal his things, he couldn't help but be very angry!

"Who is so bold?" Xiao Zan asked unhappily.

Chen Zheng pointed at Chen Xicheng with his chin and said, "It is the Lord Chen Xicheng next to him who led someone to stop our carriage with the intention of robbing."

"Mr. Chen Xicheng?" Xiao Zan frowned, "Is he an official?"

Chen Xicheng has been in the officialdom for many years and has the ability to see. Everyone in front of him was polite to him, and he himself was arrogant and definitely not an ordinary person.

Thinking of Chen Zheng holding the letter from the prince before, and thinking of the man's surname Xiao, Chen Xicheng couldn't help but tremble. It was obvious that he had learned the identity of the young man.

"I am the governor of Qianyang Prefecture Chen Xicheng." Chen Xicheng honestly explained, "This is actually just a misunderstanding."

Xiao Zan frowned and said, "If you are the governor of a state, there is no need to rob. Is there any misunderstanding?"

Seeing Xiao Zan looking at him, Chen Zheng smiled and said, "Misunderstanding? There is no misunderstanding at all. I have shown the official letter of cross-state arrest issued by Dongyang County to Lord Chen, but the other party did not care at all and insisted on searching the carriage."

"We should also get the right to get the right routine inspection." Chen Xicheng defended.

Chen Zheng snorted coldly and said, "You are a lot of people and your officials are temporary workers. If you really come to search the carriage, you must plunder some of your property."

Chen Xicheng had a cold face and didn't know how to explain, because he was indeed like searching for a carriage. If there was something good, he would deduct it.

Chen Zheng gave Chen Xicheng a chance, but he did not cherish it well. Not only did he not cherish it, he also falsely accused Chen Zheng and others of rebels. This is a serious crime to kill the nine clans.

The other party wanted to kill them, so Chen Zheng naturally would not let Chen Xicheng go.

"Chen Xicheng, if you are here, you can't say that you can take out some of these assets to honor the lord and the accompanying officials." Chen Zheng smiled, "But these assets belong to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and are used to set up a whaling team!"

"I really don't know." Chen Xicheng explained weakly, "If I knew that this was His Highness's belonging, I would not dare to rob me if I beat him to death."

"Oh, everyone heard it. He said that if he knew that this was His Highness the Crown Prince's thing, he would not dare to rob. In other words, as long as it was not His Highness the Crown Prince's, he would dare to rob." Chen Zheng pointed at Chen Xicheng and said.
