Chapter 25
Zuo Feng sat down with the other young eunuchs, and they looked around curiously.

Zuo Feng was drinking tea, but his eyes kept looking back and forth at the paintings on the wall.

Why does this painting have so many colors, and how it is so real.

After a while Zhuzi brought boiling water.

Zhang Ming took out many instant noodles from the cabinet.

"Eunuch Zuo, today I will personally cook you a big meal."

He tore open the instant noodles, put them in the sauce packet, and removed two sticks of ham.

Pour boiling water in and cover.

Several buckets of instant noodles were soaked down.

"Wait a while, let's continue drinking tea."

Zhang Ming poured another cup of tea for Zuo Feng. Zuo Feng held the cup carefully, fearing that it would fall on the ground if he was not careful.

The instant noodles were soaking there. After a while, Zhang Ming pushed the instant noodles in front of Zuo Feng, and said, "Grandpa Zuo, you can eat."

Zuo Feng was suspicious, can this thing be eaten by just soaking it in boiling water?
But he still tore the instant noodles.

"It's delicious."

"Oh, it's still hot."

Zuo Feng started to eat, and it was delicious.

After a while, Zuo Feng began to eat it vigorously, and the instant noodles slipped in.

"Several father-in-laws, you also take it to eat."

There are also eunuchs who are lower than Zuo Feng, they are not qualified to be seated at all, but Zhang Ming also made instant noodles for them and asked them to eat in their hands.

"Instant noodles can also be added with ham, so it's no wonder it can't calm you down." Zhang Ming looked down on Zuo Feng who was devouring it.

After Zuo Feng finished eating the noodles and ham, he even drank up the soup.

"delicious."

After eating, Zuo Feng wished he could eat the instant noodle box.

Zhang Ming stood up again, and took out a bottle of good wine and two glasses from the cabinet behind.

The glass is not big, it is specially used for drinking liquor.

Pour one-third of it and bring it in front of Zuo Feng.

Zuo Feng was immediately dumbfounded. Even the emperor might not be able to use such a good thing.

"Grandpa Zuo, you can give me this edict."

Zuo Feng was about to pick up the wine glass to drink, but Zhang Ming asked him for an imperial edict.

Zuo Feng retracted his hand again, but didn't go for the wine glass.

After hesitating for a while, Zuo Feng said: "Bring up the imperial decree."

A little eunuch came up with a gift box containing the imperial decree.

Zhang Ming took it, and opened it carelessly to read it.

He pretended to glance at it a few times, and he already knew the content.

"Hey, this thing still needs to be announced on the spot when my father-in-law comes to town with me tomorrow."

Zhang Ming threw the imperial decree in the box again, and said, "Grandpa Zuo, hurry up and drink, this wine is delicious."

Zuo Feng drank obediently. As soon as he drank it, his whole body was about to float. The wine was so strong.

Zuo Feng was terrified, he understood that Zhang Ming was a ruthless person, he would throw imperial decrees casually, without any reverence at all.

If Zuo Feng can cooperate well, it will be a good wine, if Zuo Feng doesn't cooperate, I believe Zhang Ming can do anything.

As for going back and making irresponsible remarks in front of the emperor, Zuo Feng was convinced that he dared not.

With so many treasures in the house, it would be easy to just take out something in exchange for his life.

"Grandpa Zuo, order some local products when you go back."

Zuo Feng was very happy. Although this Zhang Ming was so rebellious that he dared to throw away the imperial decree casually, he was also a Taoist and knew to give benefits.

Invite Zuo Feng to finish the meal and drink, and arrange for them to stay in the Zhuangzi first.

"Zhuzi, Liu Daneng, you can't rest yet. Immediately form a team of 2000 people, fully armed. When the time comes, we will enter Xiangping City on horseback, and the rest will stay at Erlong Mountain and here."

"In addition, spread the news and let them prepare to welcome Lao Tzu."

Zhuzi and Liu Daneng immediately started to act.

The next day, Zhang Ming organized the team on the farmland outside Zhuangzi early in the morning.

"Go, go into the city."

He didn't say much, but the soldiers became excited, and they became officers and soldiers after entering the city.

Zhang Ming led the army to Xiangping City, only a dozen miles away, and it took about an hour to arrive. If it wasn't because there were a bunch of dead eunuchs in the team, they would have arrived long ago.

When they arrived at the gate of the city, the gate was already opened, and many officials were there to welcome them.

Zhang Ming led his troops in directly, ignored the officials at the gate of the city, and went directly to the prefect's mansion.

"This, this, how can it be like this."

"This eunuch is too unreasonable to leave us all here."

"It's unreasonable, don't blame us for not cooperating."

There are many officials, but there are more aristocratic families, and these aristocratic families have always been the masters of this era.

Zhang Ming and others took control of the prefect's mansion, and then waited there.

After waiting for half an hour, a group of officials and a group of aristocratic families came over.

"Eunuch Zuo, please announce the decree."

Zuo Feng is no longer as arrogant as before, obediently took out the imperial decree, and then squeezed his throat.

"Your Majesty has a decree, Liaodong Zhangming, loyal and sincere, considerate of the emperor's heart, appointed as the prefect, not subject to the restraint of Youzhou, no need to pay taxes, hope Zhang Aiqing works hard to govern"

There are a lot of imperial decrees, most of which are exaggerations, but the two useful sentences are clearly heard by everyone.

Zhang Ming is the highest leader in Liaodong, and he is not subject to the restraint of Youzhou government. He can even keep all the tax revenue, although Liaodong does not have much tax revenue.

After announcing the imperial decree, Zhang Ming said, "Where is the captain?"

"Subordinate Li Tan."

Captain Li Tan came out and said.

Zhang Ming nodded, and then said sharply: "I heard that bandits are rampant outside the city, why don't you do anything?"

"Lord prefect, it's not that the subordinates didn't do anything, but that the previous prefect was incompetent, and after his death, he didn't have any military expenses, so the subordinates are really powerless to suppress the bandits." Li Tan quickly knelt on one knee and explained.

Zhang Ming nodded, and then said: "Okay, you get up, starting tomorrow, the army will strengthen training, prepare to suppress bandits, and restore peace to the people of Liaodong."

There are still a bunch of aristocratic families standing below. They are the real bosses in Liaodong, and they are inseparable from governing the place.

"My lord, I am willing to contribute a little to the suppression of the bandits, and I am willing to subsidize five thousand dollars for the military. Please send troops immediately to kill the bandits."

It was Xu Chao who came out to speak, and Zhang Ming happened to know him.

Zhang Ming was a little funny. It was Lao Tzu who robbed your house. You let Lao Tzu wipe you out?

"How can you let people like you interfere in the affairs of the army, I naturally have arrangements."

Zhang Ming rejected them very bluntly.

A group of people retreated obediently on the surface, but they were not convinced at all in their hearts.

Then Li Tan looked at Zhang Ming like a fool. If he offended these gangsters, Zhang Ming would be unable to move an inch, and would not be able to issue any government orders.

And Zhang Ming didn't seem to realize this.

In this way, Zhang Ming entered Liaodong.

Everyone retreated, even Zuo Feng was arranged to live in other places.

Only Zhang Ming and his four men were there.

Chen Yang, Liu Daneng, Zhuzi and Liu Gen.
