Chapter 252： Robber turns himself in

A strange thing happened in Zhoushan city.

The bandits from Heifenglin who gave the government a headache, actually came to the yamen and turned themselves in!

It's a strange thing that has never happened before.

You said that the bandits in Heifenglin, they raided houses, intercepted passers-by and robbed, and committed all kinds of crimes, but the government had nothing to do with this group of robbers, they were caught and caught, but they were like cunning foxes Generally, when I hear the wind somewhere, I can quickly hide myself.

In short, the former prefect Ji Zhong has only arrested them for a few years, and they are still so arrogant as real robbers.

At this moment, I don't know if I'm mad, or I can't think about it, and I would turn myself in so consciously.

In the back hall of the yamen, the head of the police quickly walked towards the place where the prefect was staying, and shouted loudly, "My lord, my lord, the thieves outside turned themselves in, my lord!"

This sound makes people feel excited and excited.

Zhou Changsheng hurriedly walked over in his official uniform and hat, and asked, "Zhou Zhaitou, what's going on?"

He had only been in office for a few days, and it was incredible to hear that a thief turned himself in.

If this matter is true, if it is handled well, it will be a great achievement;

He also didn't understand how these two situations ended.

Zhou Zhaotou's eyes lit up, and he said excitedly, "Sir, it's the gang of robbers in the Black Wind Forest. They came to the yamen and turned themselves in."

Zhou Changsheng still asked in disbelief, "Is this true?"

Zhou Zhaotou nodded and replied, "Yes, my lord. Many people are watching outside. The robbers in Heifenglin built a Heifeng Village there. I know the owner of the village, the one-eyed dragon, the leader of the robbers. Now that group of people outside is the one who turned himself in with the one-eyed dragon as the head, my lord!"

It's been 20+ years of catching fast, only this time it feels like a dream.

It sounds unbelievable that a group of robbers turned themselves in, but this is the truth.

Could this have something to do with the new prefect?

Otherwise, who is so lucky?

The new prefect has not been in office for a long time, and he has not yet had much power in his hands. Some remnants of the previous prefect Ji Zhongcai will definitely not deal with him. , do not listen to his leadership and command.

And the way they gave Zhou Changsheng a horse was to ask Zhou Changsheng to arrest the rampant robbers from Heifenglin, otherwise, they would question Zhou Changsheng's ability to handle affairs.

Zhou Changsheng arrived for the first time, even though he is the chief of a city here, but he can't be said to be arrogant, and he has no power to stand by, so he can only take over the horse, and in the future, these people can be counted.

In the past two days, he has been racking his brains to come up with a plan to suppress bandits, but there is nothing wrong.

He was thinking about whether to go to Lin Yuelan for help, and this group of robbers came to the door automatically.

This is very unexpected.

Zhou Changsheng immediately arranged his clothes and said with a serious expression, "Let's go, let's go to the court!"

Zhou Zhaokuai said excitedly, "Yes, my lord!"

Afterwards, both of them stepped up with uncontrollable excitement and walked towards the court.

After entering the court, Zhou Changsheng immediately asked seriously, "Who is in the court?"

The one-eyed dragon at the head kowtowed very seriously and said, "Master Hui, Caomin and others are from Heifenglin Heifengfengzhai."

Zhou Changsheng immediately said suspiciously, "Heifenglin Heifeng Village?"

The one-eyed dragon responded immediately, "Yes, my lord, Heifenglin Heifeng Village!"

Zhou Changsheng said suspiciously, "If I remember correctly, Heifenglin Heifengzhai is a stronghold of the robbers, right? You actually said that you belonged to Heifengzhai, so you are robbers?"

The one-eyed dragon and a group of his subordinates responded with anger, anxiety, fear, and fear, "Yes, my lord. My name is Hu Hansan, and I am the robber from Heifeng Fortress."

They also don't want to admit that they are robbers sent to the door, but they can't help but have their lives in the palm of their hands.

One-eyed dragon's heart slammed, and he said directly, "My lord, I have turned myself in and handed over the money from the recent robbery. Please spare the lives of Caomin and others."

After Zhou Changsheng heard that these people were indeed the gang of robbers from Heifengzhai, although he still felt cloudy in his heart, he still shouted calmly and solemnly on the surface,

"Since you admit that you are the gang of robbers from Heifengzhai, and you want this official to spare your life, you know how much money you have robbed over the years, and how many people have been killed? Even if you surrendered yourself and surrendered Some money, still can't resist the sins you have committed, how do you want this official to forgive you?"

After hearing Zhou Changsheng's words, the one-eyed dragon and his subordinates immediately said anxiously, "No, that person clearly said that as long as I wait to surrender, I can spare my life! Sir, you can't kill us!"

Zhou Changsheng was even more at a loss when he heard the words of the one-eyed dragon, and asked, "Who is it?" Naturally, he asked who told them that they could spare their lives.

At this moment, Lin Xujie came to guard him.

As soon as they saw Lin Xujie, One-Eyed Dragon and the others immediately got excited, pointed at him and said, "Sir, it's him, it's him, it's him who asked us to surrender!"

Afterwards, the one-eyed dragon said excitedly to Lin Xujie, "Master, you said that as long as we surrender, we will spare the lives of my brothers and other brothers."

Lin Xujie said softly to the one-eyed dragon and the others, "Don't be impatient!"

Lin Xujie is Lin Yuelan's personal bodyguard, and Zhou Changsheng naturally recognizes it.

At this moment, seeing Lin Xujie in court, and letting the One-Eyed Dragon and his party point at him, Zhou Changsheng immediately understood that the robber would turn himself in. The big reason was most likely Lin Yuelan.

Lin Xujie nodded slightly at Zhou Changsheng, who immediately understood what he meant.

Zhou Changsheng immediately took the gavel and said, "Retreat for a while, and then try again!"

Afterwards, Zhou Changsheng hurriedly went to the back hall.

In the back hall, Lin Yuelan was admiring flowers in a garden where everything withered, except for a winter plum, which was unique.

Zhou Changsheng walked over and called to Lin Yuelan, "Miss Lin!"

Lin Yuelan said, "Master Zhou, I'm embarrassing you!"

From being a seventh-rank magistrate directly to being promoted to fifth-rank prefect, coupled with the new arrival, the situation in Zhoushan must be somewhat difficult.

However, since she promised to support their father and son, she will naturally give some inevitable help in some difficult things.

No, she sent these robbers up to give him a big boost to his political record.

Originally, I listened to a child, and she was a peasant girl without any identity. It was embarrassing to talk to him, a fifth-rank prefect, and if it sounded awkward or angry, it would have reduced his majesty. For a moment, be a little guy.

However, Zhou Changsheng did not think so.

Since their father and son agreed to Lin Yuelan's support, they deeply felt that this twelve-year-old child was unfathomable, as if everything was under her control.

Her self-confidence, calmness, and indifferent temperament are even more impressive.

People who have never been in contact with others may not know the charm of her life and deeds.

Zhou Changsheng said with a smile, "Miss Lin gave this official such a gift as soon as she came. Even if she was embarrassed before, I believe that after today, those people will not dare to underestimate this official."

After all, a newly appointed prefect actually has the ability to make the robbers in the Black Wind Forest, which has been a headache for everyone in the past few years, surrendered.

But then Zhou Changsheng said with a wry smile, "These people are robbers who rob a lot of property, and they are robbers who kill countless people. Even if they surrender themselves, they must be sentenced to death according to law."

Of course he said this to Lin Yuelan.

Judging from the reaction of the gang of robbers when they saw Lin Xujie, it was obvious that Lin Yuelan didn't want to kill them, so Lin Xujie asked him to come and meet Lin Yuelan.

Lin Yuelan said, "Sir, you just need to do business on a regular basis!"

Zhou Changsheng immediately said somewhat stunned, "Business affairs?"

Lin Yuelan nodded and said, "Yes, business affairs!"

Zhou Changsheng was extremely puzzled, what kind of riddle was in Lin Yuelan's gourd?

First of all, it's obvious that Lin Yuelan doesn't want the lives of these people, but, isn't it a contradiction to ask him to do business?

Just when Zhou Changsheng was puzzled, Lin Yuelan suddenly said, "Sir, have you heard of moving flowers to join trees?"

Zhou Changsheng was immediately stunned, "Moving flowers to join trees?"

Lin Yuelan said, "Yes."

Zhou Changsheng understood what Lin Yuelan meant, but he still didn't understand why Lin Yuelan wanted to save these vicious people?

If they were rescued, it would be troublesome if they were exposed in the future.

Zhou Changsheng couldn't hold back his curiosity and said, "Miss Lin, may I take the liberty to ask why you have to save these gangsters?"

Lin Yuelan didn't answer directly, she just smiled and said mysteriously, "Master Zhou, this girl saved them because they were useful. I don't care who they are who are useful."

Specifically, what are the uses of these people, Lin Yuelan did not explain much.

After Zhou Changsheng sighed heavily in his heart, he could only say, "Since that's the case, then let these people arrange according to Miss Lin's wishes!"

Lin Yuelan suddenly took out an invitation, and it was a post for you to come to my restaurant opening ceremony the day after tomorrow.

Lin Yuelan said with a smile, "Master Zhou, I might have to trouble you to come."

Zhou Changsheng took the invitation and said with a wry smile, "Miss Lin, don't worry, you will definitely come!"

Zhou Changsheng returned to the court again, slapped Jingmutang heavily, and immediately said seriously, "Hu Hansan and others organized Heifengzhai into a den of robbers and bandits in Heifenglin. , according to the law, all should be beheaded! Come on, put Hu Hansan and others in prison, and ask for beheading at 3:00 tomorrow noon!"

As soon as Zhou Changsheng's voice fell, these robbers were stunned for a moment, and then they immediately resisted excitedly.

"No!"
