Chapter 46 Helping Qin Yong Find Herbs
Zheng Qian was gratified and moved that Zhang Tiezhu returned in this way.
As expected of someone I value highly, he is witty, humorous, and not afraid of death.
With a subordinate like that, what's wrong with him being a little stupid?
What's wrong with him wearing a pink bellyband?
When Zhang Tiezhu drew his sword, he was so hasty that the buttons on his clothes came off, revealing the pink undergarment underneath.
Zheng Qian reached out and buttoned Zhang Tiezhu's shirt, and Zheng Qian answered softly.
"Welcome back to Zheng Le Escort Agency. Let's fight side by side."
Zhang Tiezhu's mouth stretched even wider, as happy as a child eating candy.
At this moment, He Zuowen arrived at the city gate and saw Zhang Tiezhu facing Zheng Qian from afar. Zheng Qian's hands were in front of Zhang Tiezhu's chest, and Zhang Tiezhu held his sword without moving.
Although Zhang Tiezhu's back blocked Zheng Qian's hand, He Zuowen knew that Zheng Qian must have grabbed the expert's collar at this moment, and they were about to fight.
Wu Feng quickened his pace and dared not speak behind him. He was just curious why the magistrate wanted to find Zheng Qian. Hadn't they already talked?
"Zheng Qian, what are you doing in broad daylight? Have you no regard for the law?"
Zheng Qian and Zhang Tiezhu turned around and saw the county magistrate leading a group of people walking briskly towards them.
The magistrate's face was gloomy, but he smiled when he saw Zhang Tiezhu.
"Good man, don't worry, with me here, no one in Lvchang County will dare to hurt you."
Zheng Qian was puzzled. What are you two up to?
"The head镖师 (bodyguard/escort) said he would help me achieve great things, so I asked him to come down and tell me."
Zheng Qian's face immediately darkened. "Magistrate He, I've already agreed to your request. Aren't you going to let my men go?"
subordinates?
He Zuowen was dumbfounded. Wasn't Zheng Le Escort Agency a bunch of scoundrels? How could such a man be following him?
If it really is one of his men, wouldn't that be a blunder?
Zheng Qian always ran up to see me, while I ran down to see his subordinates.
I acted impulsively, I acted impulsively.
Wu Feng was quick to smooth things over and hurriedly explained in a low voice, "Sir, he is another person from Zheng Le Escort Agency, Zhang Tiezhu."
His gloomy face immediately turned into a smile, and He Zuowen said, "Zheng Le Escort Agency is indeed full of experts. The future of our Lvchang County is promising."
"What do you mean 'hopeful'? Zheng Qian felt like vomiting just looking at He Zuowen's attitude."
If he hadn't pressured He Ruoyun to participate in the talent show to pave the way for his career, his words would have sounded quite agreeable.
"Thank you for your kind words, Lord He. Farewell!"
Zheng Qian bowed respectfully, then turned and led his horse away.
People with different values cannot work together; saying even one more word would be disgusting.
Zhang Tiezhu glared angrily at He Zuowen, then suddenly raised his fist to punch him, before pulling it back in mid-air and turning away with a sullen look.
His pink bellyband was thus exposed to everyone's eyes, leaving them utterly astonished.
It looked like Zheng Qian was buttoning his shirt just now.
Looking at the imposing and majestic Zhang Tiezhu, and then at the well-proportioned and handsome Zheng Qian, isn't it just a case of a black bear paired with a pretty boy?
At this moment, Zhang Tiezhu rushed to help Zheng Qian lead the horse, and their hands even touched briefly.
Zhang Tiezhu grabbed him and pinched his buttocks with the hand that touched him.
Holy crap, this is an eyesore, indecent.
"Scoundrels, a disgrace to Lvchang County!"
Wu Feng kept pounding his chest with both hands, feeling as if millions of ants were crawling inside; it was too painful.
I really want to hit him.
"Drown them in pig cages."
"Why waste a pig cage? Just beat it to death with sticks."
"Killing them would be too lenient; let them hang on the city wall to dry in the wind."
"You guys go ahead, Zheng Qian will wipe out the Jade Spear Sect all by himself."
Everyone fell silent; some looked at the sky, others at their feet.
I didn't say anything.
He Zuowen looked grim. Not only did Zheng Qian disrespect him, but Zhang Tiezhu had also threatened him in public.
However, he could not retaliate, as the Red Turban Army had already captured five county towns and was about to reach Lüchang County.
If word gets out that the magistrate is arresting or beating and killing people, it will cause panic. If the people are in disarray, the city will surely fall, and his reputation will be ruined.
Hiding a dagger in a smile is what intellectuals do; they kill without shedding blood.
He's still in Lvchang County, and he'll soon be defending the city again. He has a million ways to kill them both.
As for whether the city could be defended, the answer is no.
Will He Wenzhang be in danger if the city falls?
Anyone who has this question simply doesn't understand politics; a living magistrate is a hundred times more valuable than a dead one.
Moreover, he has powerful backers and a good reputation in Lvchang County.
What He Zuowen had to do was to do everything in his power to resist the Red Turban Army's attack on the city and slow down their eastward advance as much as possible.
The longer he defended the city, the greater his fame became, and the smoother his official career became.
If he is captured, the Red Turban Army will surely treat him to a feast. He can either help the Red Turban Army manage Lvchang County or refuse to surrender and pledge his loyalty to the emperor. His daughter will find a way to rescue him.
He can never lose no matter how he plays.
Everyone will die, but he will not die.
Back at Zheng Le Escort Agency, Zheng Qian lay back down in his armchair.
After wandering around Green Chang City, they finally returned to defend it.
In the sky, fiery clouds burst into flames, growing larger and larger, as night was about to fall.
dong dong dong.
A knock sounded at the door, and Zhang Tiezhu stopped, sheathing his sword, and jogged to open it.
"Brother, why are you back again?"
As soon as Qin Yong entered the room, he couldn't help but ask Zheng Qian, his eyes full of anxiety.
Wiping his sweat, Zheng Qian put down his heavy sword. "I don't want to leave anymore, so I've come back to stay for a while."
"Brother, don't act impulsively out of loyalty."
Qin Yong was really anxious. He heard that the county magistrate had spoken to Zheng Qian and even praised Tao Tiezhu. He was afraid that Zheng Qian would make a mistake.
He knew the magistrate's character all too well; if it weren't for his deep-seated obsession, he would have left long ago.
“The Red Turban Army is only 120 li away from us. Once they capture Baiyun County, they will head straight for Lüchang County. By then, it will be too late to leave.”
Seeing Zheng Qian take out the Green Chang Gold Ancient Tree with Golden Flower, Qin Yong became even more anxious and stepped forward to press down on his hand.
"Brother, did you hear me? Go now, don't have any regrets. You can't hold on to it. Keep this tea, it can bring you a lifetime of wealth. Don't waste it."
Zheng Qian looked directly at Qin Yong, "If you can't protect me, why don't you leave?"
With a sigh, Qin Yong showed a helpless expression for the first time.
“Brother, to tell you the truth, when I went out last time, I had already settled my family. I have no more worries and can live and die with Green City.”
Nodding, Zheng Qian admired Qin Yong for his uprightness, incorruptibility, and fearlessness.
"The strength of a country lies not in how many troops and how many masters it has, but in the spirit of its generals who are not afraid to die and its civil officials who are not greedy for money. If Wuyan has a general like Brother Qin, why should it worry about a small Red Turban Army?"
His eyes gradually brightened, and Qin Yong's fighting spirit was ignited.
"What a fine saying, 'Military generals are not afraid of death, and civil officials are not greedy for money.' Brother, it's a real waste of your talents for you to stay in Lvchang County."
Waving his hand, Zheng Qian said with a smile, "It's not a waste of my talent. Just live a carefree life. Brother Qin, if there's anything I can do for you, just let me know."
"There is indeed something. Some time ago, the Biqiang Sect purchased a batch of herbs, which are now hidden in Lvchang County. We have been searching for them for a long time but have not been able to find them. If you can find these herbs, brothers, it will save the lives of many soldiers in the city defense battle and strengthen our defense capabilities."
Herbs?
"I know this stuff well," Zheng Qian immediately assured him, patting his chest.
"It's just finding herbs, no big deal, leave it to me."
