"Join my Chen family?"
Chen Kun sized up Ge Feilong and said with interest.
"Not bad."
"Hehe... Chief Arrester Ge is a member of the imperial court, and I am just a commoner. How can I be worthy of Chief Arrester Ge's service?”
Chen Kun chuckled.
Chen Kun was a little surprised by Ge Feilong's decision.
You also know that you are a commoner?
When your Chen family killed the county lord, a dignified official of the imperial court, why didn't you think of yourself as a commoner?
A few days ago, the news of the County Lord and the four major families being killed by a True Core warrior had spread.
Ge Feilong even suspected that he had misheard and was in disbelief.
But later, this news was confirmed.
Ge Feilong had just learned that the County Lord Zhang Zhidong had joined forces with the four major families to destroy the Chen Family, but he had never expected that the Chen Family had a True Core powerhouse behind them.
As for the matter of the County Lord wanting to deal with the Chen family.
He did not know about it beforehand.
Because he was afraid that the news would leak, the county lord did not suggest it to anyone, not even his trusted aide Ge Feilong.
Ge Feilong didn't know that the so-called true core giant was Chen Kun.
That was because everyone present had been killed by Chen Kun that day.
He only thought that the four great clans and the county lord had joined forces to destroy the Chen family.
As a result, they angered the True Core powerhouse behind the Chen family. That True Core powerhouse attacked and killed everyone with a single palm strike.
He had never thought that the True Core warrior was Chen Kun.
Because he felt that it was impossible.
Ge Feilong wasn't the only one who thought so.
This was the case for all the factions in Ji County.
Ge Feilong instantly understood.
Why was Chen Kun's cultivation so profound at such a young age?
Why did the Chen family rise so quickly?
With the support of a True Core warrior, everything made sense.
Thinking of the True Core warriors, Ge Feilong could only feel his body trembling.
That was a legendary figure.
Ji County had never produced a true core giant in the past few hundred years!
One could imagine Ge Feilong's mood when he heard the news.
After Zhang Zhidong was killed, his backer was gone.
Ge Feilong thought for a long time.
In the end, they decided to join the Chen family.
He made this decision for two reasons.
Firstly, it was because he was the trusted aide of County Lord Zhang Zhidong.
Zhang Zhidong was dead. He was afraid that the Chen family would implicate him. The Chen family even dared to kill the county magistrate, let alone a small chief constable like him.
Secondly, he could tell that the Chen Clan would become the true ruler of Ji County. Even the original number one clan of Ji County, the Nangong Clan, would not be able to compete with them.
He looked at Chen Kun's surprised expression.
Ge Feilong said sincerely,"Chen Clan Leader, Ge Feilong sincerely wants to join the Chen Clan. I only hope that the Chen Clan can accept him!”
Regret?
"I won't regret it!"
"Good, very good!"
Chen Kun raised his hands and an invisible force helped Ge Feilong up.
He laughed and said,"A wise man is one who understands the times. I'm talking about Chief Constable Ge. Since you're sincere in joining my Chen family, then my Chen family will accept you. Originally, I thought that the Chief Constable of Ji County would have to be replaced.”
Ge Feilong heard this.
His back was covered in cold sweat, and his face was filled with fear.
It turned out that the Chen family really wanted to get rid of him.
If he didn't know what was good for him, he probably wouldn't have many days left to live.
He was extremely glad.
Ge Feilong was overjoyed when he heard that Chen Kun was willing to accept him.
He bowed again and said,""Ge Feilong thanks the clan head for being willing to go through fire and water for the Chen Clan!”
Chen Kun knew that this was just a formality.
But so what? He did not care.
As long as he was strong enough.
Ge Feilong could only submit to him and be his lackey!
"Patriarch, Fei Long has something to tell you!”
"Oh?"
When Chen Kun heard this, he was a little puzzled.
"Go ahead," he said.
"Patriarch, it's about the County Lord Zhang Zhidong.”
Chen Kun frowned. Why? Does Ge Feilong want to demand an explanation for his old master?
Chen Kun seemed to have misunderstood.
"Patriarch," Ge Feilong hurriedly said,"Zhang Zhidong's death was his own fault, but he was still an official of the imperial court. If my Chen family killed him, it would be a disgrace to the imperial court."”
"Just in case, Patriarch should have made plans earlier.”
It turned out that he had misunderstood.
However, Ge Feilong was right. He reminded himself.
After all, Zhang Zhidong was a member of the imperial court.
He represented the Imperial Court in Ji County.
Now, he had killed him.
To put it more seriously, his actions could already be said to be killing officials and rebelling.
The Chen family couldn't afford to bear this crime.
Although the imperial court was weak.
However, if he really wanted to kill the Chen family, it would be effortless for him to do so!
It seemed that he had to think of a way.
Suddenly, you looked at Ge Feilong.
"Fei Long, since you've thought of this, you must have a solution, right?"”
Just as Chen Kun had expected.
Ge Feilong nodded.
He did not dare to keep her in suspense and said directly,"Clan Head, I do have a way to cover up the fact that Zhang Zhidong was killed, but this method…"
He looked at Ge Feilong who was stuttering.
"Feilong, you can just say it. No matter what, I won't blame you."”
Chen Kun promised.
Ge Feilong was relieved.
He said,"My Ji County belongs to Hejian County, so Zhang Zhidong is naturally under the jurisdiction of the county. The person with the highest status in the county is the county governor.”
"However, the county governor doesn't care about political affairs and is in seclusion for a long time.”
"The power of the county has fallen into the hands of the chief historian.”
"That chief historian was extremely greedy. Every year, Zhang Zhidong would contribute seventy percent of the treasures he plundered in Ji County to the chief historian, which was why he could remain as the county magistrate for twenty years.”
"Fei Long's intention is for my Chen family to send someone with gifts to bribe the chief historian.”
"Let him help us cover up this matter!”
Chen Kun thought for a moment.
If what Ge Feilong said was true.
This was indeed a good idea. It was just a waste of money to avoid disaster. Now that the Chen family had a large business, it was not a problem for them to bribe the chief historian!
Moreover, if they could use money to bribe the chief historian, would the Chen family be able to plot something?
For example…
The position of county captain.
County lieutenant, in charge of a county's military forces. He had a high position and authority. In the county, his status was only second to the county magistrate and county deputy. He was truly the third person.
Ji County also had county officers.
However, the aristocratic families of Ji County were so powerful that even the county magistrate could be figureheads, let alone a county lieutenant. He did not even have a single soldier under him.
Therefore, he stayed at home sick and only received the salary of a county captain!
But...
If the Chen family obtained the position of county captain, then it would be very different.
The Chen Clan was now the overlord of Ji County.
There was no problem of being figureheads.
With the title of county captain in hand, the Chen family would have their own power in the government, and they would be able to recruit soldiers and buy horses legitimately.
This plan was feasible!
But who should he send?
(PS: Second! Please give me your feedback, flowers, reviews, and monthly votes!) "Join my Chen family?"
Chen Kun sized up Ge Feilong and said with interest.
"Not bad."
"Hehe... Chief Arrester Ge is a member of the imperial court, and I am just a commoner. How can I be worthy of Chief Arrester Ge's service?”

But later, this news was confirmed.
Ge Feilong had just learned that the County Lord Zhang Zhidong had joined forces with the four major families to destroy the Chen Family, but he had never expected that the Chen Family had a True Core powerhouse behind them.
As for the matter of the County Lord wanting to deal with the Chen family.
He did not know about it beforehand.
Because he was afraid that the news would leak, the county lord did not suggest it to anyone, not even his trusted aide Ge Feilong.
Ge Feilong didn't know that the so-called true core giant was Chen Kun.
That was because everyone present had been killed by Chen Kun that day.
He only thought that the four great clans and the county lord had joined forces to destroy the Chen family.
As a result, they angered the True Core powerhouse behind the Chen family. That True Core powerhouse attacked and killed everyone with a single palm strike.
He had never thought that the True Core warrior was Chen Kun.
Because he felt that it was impossible.
Ge Feilong wasn't the only one who thought so.
This was the case for all the factions in Ji County.
Ge Feilong instantly understood.
Why was Chen Kun's cultivation so profound at such a young age?
Why did the Chen family rise so quickly?
With the support of a True Core warrior, everything made sense.
Thinking of the True Core warriors, Ge Feilong could only feel his body trembling.
That was a legendary figure.
Ji County had never produced a true core giant in the past few hundred years!
One could imagine Ge Feilong's mood when he heard the news.
After Zhang Zhidong was killed, his backer was gone.
Ge Feilong thought for a long time.
In the end, they decided to join the Chen family.
He made this decision for two reasons.
Firstly, it was because he was the trusted aide of County Lord Zhang Zhidong.
Zhang Zhidong was dead. He was afraid that the Chen family would implicate him. The Chen family even dared to kill the county magistrate, let alone a small chief constable like him.
Secondly, he could tell that the Chen Clan would become the true ruler of Ji County. Even the original number one clan of Ji County, the Nangong Clan, would not be able to compete with them.
He looked at Chen Kun's surprised expression.
Ge Feilong said sincerely,"Chen Clan Leader, Ge Feilong sincerely wants to join the Chen Clan. I only hope that the Chen Clan can accept him!”
Regret?
"I won't regret it!"
"Good, very good!"
Chen Kun raised his hands and an invisible force helped Ge Feilong up.
He laughed and said,"A wise man is one who understands the times. I'm talking about Chief Constable Ge. Since you're sincere in joining my Chen family, then my Chen family will accept you. Originally, I thought that the Chief Constable of Ji County would have to be replaced.”
Ge Feilong heard this.
His back was covered in cold sweat, and his face was filled with fear.
It turned out that the Chen family really wanted to get rid of him.
If he didn't know what was good for him, he probably wouldn't have many days left to live.
He was extremely glad.
Ge Feilong was overjoyed when he heard that Chen Kun was willing to accept him.
He bowed again and said,""Ge Feilong thanks the clan head for being willing to go through fire and water for the Chen Clan!”
Chen Kun knew that this was just a formality.
But so what? He did not care.
As long as he was strong enough.
Ge Feilong could only submit to him and be his lackey!
"Patriarch, Fei Long has something to tell you!”
"Oh?"
When Chen Kun heard this, he was a little puzzled.
"Go ahead," he said.
"Patriarch, it's about the County Lord Zhang Zhidong.”
Chen Kun frowned. Why? Does Ge Feilong want to demand an explanation for his old master?
Chen Kun seemed to have misunderstood.
"Patriarch," Ge Feilong hurriedly said,"Zhang Zhidong's death was his own fault, but he was still an official of the imperial court. If my Chen family killed him, it would be a disgrace to the imperial court."”
"Just in case, Patriarch should have made plans earlier.”
It turned out that he had misunderstood.
However, Ge Feilong was right. He reminded himself.
After all, Zhang Zhidong was a member of the imperial court.
He represented the Imperial Court in Ji County.
Now, he had killed him.
To put it more seriously, his actions could already be said to be killing officials and rebelling.
The Chen family couldn't afford to bear this crime.
Although the imperial court was weak.
However, if he really wanted to kill the Chen family, it would be effortless for him to do so!
It seemed that he had to think of a way.
Suddenly, you looked at Ge Feilong.
"Fei Long, since you've thought of this, you must have a solution, right?"”
Just as Chen Kun had expected.
Ge Feilong nodded.
He did not dare to keep her in suspense and said directly,"Clan Head, I do have a way to cover up the fact that Zhang Zhidong was killed, but this method…"
He looked at Ge Feilong who was stuttering.
"Feilong, you can just say it. No matter what, I won't blame you."”
Chen Kun promised.
Ge Feilong was relieved.
He said,"My Ji County belongs to Hejian County, so Zhang Zhidong is naturally under the jurisdiction of the county. The person with the highest status in the county is the county governor.”
"However, the county governor doesn't care about political affairs and is in seclusion for a long time.”
"The power of the county has fallen into the hands of the chief historian.”
"That chief historian was extremely greedy. Every year, Zhang Zhidong would contribute seventy percent of the treasures he plundered in Ji County to the chief historian, which was why he could remain as the county magistrate for twenty years.”
"Fei Long's intention is for my Chen family to send someone with gifts to bribe the chief historian.”
"Let him help us cover up this matter!”
Chen Kun thought for a moment.
If what Ge Feilong said was true.
This was indeed a good idea. It was just a waste of money to avoid disaster. Now that the Chen family had a large business, it was not a problem for them to bribe the chief historian!
Moreover, if they could use money to bribe the chief historian, would the Chen family be able to plot something?
For example…
The position of county captain.
County lieutenant, in charge of a county's military forces. He had a high position and authority. In the county, his status was only second to the county magistrate and county deputy. He was truly the third person.
Ji County also had county officers.
However, the aristocratic families of Ji County were so powerful that even the county magistrate could be figureheads, let alone a county lieutenant. He did not even have a single soldier under him.
Therefore, he stayed at home sick and only received the salary of a county captain!
But...
If the Chen family obtained the position of county captain, then it would be very different.
The Chen Clan was now the overlord of Ji County.
There was no problem of being figureheads.
With the title of county captain in hand, the Chen family would have their own power in the government, and they would be able to recruit soldiers and buy horses legitimately.
This plan was feasible!
But who should he send?
