Chapter 109 Inside the lobby!

Goshha's loud shout suddenly, and the noise in the entire lobby disappeared without a trace. Some were deadly silence, and a panic aura spread throughout the lobby.

"Come on." Fu Kang'an, sitting in the main seat, spoke with a standard Beijing film. His voice was not loud. With his three long beards, his figure looked a little thin, which made people feel like a scholar who reads poetry and books, and more like a general who kills and decisively.

However, the light emitted from the narrow and long single eyelid eyes, as well as the killing aura and majesty that have been cultivated on the battlefield all year round, reminds the officials present that he is the master of this place.

"Yes!" The Goshha quickly stepped forward and presented the military newspaper with both hands. Fu Kangan received it in his hand. After opening it, a trace of doubt appeared on the face that seemed to be indifferent to joy and anger. Suddenly, he was disbelief and subconsciously glanced at Pan Youdu, who was not far away next to him.

Feeling Fu Kangan's sharp gaze as sharp as a knife, Pan Youdu's heart twitched slightly, and a smile appeared in his eyes. I guess the news in the military newspaper must have a close relationship with the eldest son Liang, which shows that the kid finally made a grand debut.

"Master, but the pirates invaded our prefectures." After seeing Fu Kang'an's expression, the Guangzhou prefect Lengli felt as if a basin of cold water was poured down from his head. The first one couldn't wait to stand out.

Fu Kangan glanced at the prefect indifferently and handed over the military newspaper to the guards around him: "Read it out so that you can't think there is any bad news."

"Zhe!" The guard with swords took the military newspaper and started reading loudly.

As soon as I heard the news from the military newspaper, the lobby, which was originally a little suffocating, suddenly became boiling again.

"...The Western-Armored Sea Captains Irving, Moly and more than a dozen others were captured, three Western-Armored warships, dozens of cannons, and countless other firearms and swords..." The guard with sword continued to read the military newspaper loudly without any influence, and a loud voice spread throughout the lobby.

Those officials and the gentry who had participated in the Fukang'an birthday banquet were all talking, but they never expected that the Qing Dynasty maritime merchant who was rumored to defeat the Western pirate leader Irving, who had to escape even when the navy met, was actually true.

Several foreign envoys who came to congratulate the congratulations all stared wide, kept tying their ears, and stammeringly communicating with their companions, as if they were afraid that they had heard it wrong.

The eyes of several generals present suddenly turned red, and they were panting like bulls in heat. The jealous fire burned in their chests. This maritime merchant not only defeated, but also captured the famous enemy chief of South China Sea alive. Such great achievements could not fall on their heads. Not to mention the 30,000 taels of reward, just this military merit would allow them to move their butts upwards, and maybe they could even change the title of wife and cute son.

Seeing this scene, Fu Kangan couldn't help but smile. He actually received such good news at his birthday party. What's the sign of a good omen? Moreover, he really didn't expect that it was Liang Pengfei, a maritime merchant who had asked him to donate his position as a navy military officer a few days ago.

"Come here, let Liang Pengfei come to see me, and also drag the Western barbarians in. I really want to see what kind of person Irving is, who is traversing across the South China Sea and defeating me, the Qingshui Master." Fu Kangan was about to stand up, but he seemed to feel something was wrong. He sat back and ordered the Goshha who had just come in to report the news.

Soon, he heard the reputation of singing outside. Under the gaze of countless gazes in the gates, Liang Pengfei sorted out the brand new lake silk robe on his clothes, lifted up the front and walked forward. Behind him was a team of fully armed Guangdong navy, escorting the leader of seven Western pirates. There were several soldiers holding the box behind him. The gap in the box was faintly scented with lime. The navy soldiers holding the box didn't look very good, as if the things in the box made him feel very uncomfortable.

"Is this Liang Pengfei who defeated the Western pirates?" Guangdong Customs Supervisor Erdenbu played with the jasper ring in his hand, and a playful smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. Next to him, his nephew, Lenggeli, the governor of Guangzhou, also looked at the young man who came into the door with his eyes slanted.

"That's right." Cai Shiwen subconsciously gritted his teeth, and his eyes were filled with a sense of coldness and sternness.

"I'm really young enough. Just such a character can make you suffer a small loss, Brother Cai, haha, you are worthy of being a newborn calf." Guangdong Customs Supervisor Erdenbu curled his lips and said indifferently.

After hearing this, Cai Shiwen was extremely depressed, but he could only smile. Who made this Guangdong Customs Supervisor not a person he could offend? Even if the governor of Guangzhou met this master from the Ministry of Internal Affairs, he would have to be polite. Who made him the emperor's slave? You must know that all the people in charge of the customs must be from the Huangqi and be favored by the emperor. Because most of the customs money will be flowed into the emperor's pocket.

"Is it him?" In another corner, a thin middle-aged man in a second-rank robe was asking Pan Youdu beside him, saying that this person was Guo Shixun, the governor of Guangdong. He was originally from the Zhenghong Banner of the Han Army. In the 54th year of Qianlong, he was promoted to the governor of Guizhou and transferred to Guangdong to the governor of Guangzhou.

"It's this person." Pan Youdu saw Liang Pengfei's calm and composed expression, facing so many high-ranking officials but was not at all in a mood. His steps were still firm and powerful. He did not have to hold a folding fan in his hand. However, his long robe with fluttering clothes, straight figure, handsome and calm face, and his deep and affectionate smile. It made people feel that this warrior doesn't look like a warrior who can reach out to capture the thief, but rather like a scholar who is well-read about poetry and books.

"You are so charming, Youdu is really good at knowing people." Guo Shixun couldn't help but praise her. Aside him, the smile on Pan Youdu's face seemed to be a little stronger.

"Liang Pengfei, a grass-roots citizen, has met the governor of Guangdong and Guangxi, General Fu." Liang Pengfei walked into the lobby amid the whispers of everyone, and let the attention of those two eyes calmly lift his robe and bow down.

"You are Liang Pengfei, the young master of Hailianxing who is trying to capture the thief chief?" Fu Kangan looked at the sturdy young man with an indescribable elegance, and couldn't help feeling a little more relieved. It seemed that Pan Youdu had really read the wrong person and recommended a young British artist to himself. With this kind of neither humble nor arrogant demeanor, how many people present could match?

You know, he was a young and famous British artist. When he saw the boy in front of him, he couldn't help but think of his past. He was favored by Qianlong since then and he was promoted all the way. He was still the best, and he ranked first in the first grade, with a trace of memories of the past in his eyes.

"It's the grass-roots." Liang Pengfei buried his head deeper. Although he seemed so respectful, he didn't know how many times he had greeted Fu Kang'an's ancestors. Master Liang knelt on the sky and the ground in his previous life, but he had never bowed to the officials. Now, he had to kneel here honestly.

", today I'm kneeling for you, for my future future and planning. In the future, I will let you guys know who will be the master who has occupied the longest time on this land."

Just as Liang Pengfei was full of resentment, Fu Kangan spoke again: "Get up and let me take a good look."

"Thank you, Magistrate Fu." Liang Pengfei did not dare to lose his manners. After thanking him respectfully, he stood up neatly, lowered his hands, but his head did not hang low like an ordinary person, but raised it, without any fear or fear at all.

Some officials couldn't help but feel a hint of displeasure. "Is this kid too arrogant?" The Guangzhou prefect Lengli looked even more sly. At this time, Cai Shiwen seemed to be a little surprised: "Master, this kid seems to be inappropriate to do this, right?"

"What does it mean?" Lenggeli really made Cai Shiwen stunned for a moment. Just as Cai Shiwen was whispering in Lenggeli's ear, at this time, the leaders of the seven Western pirates were all taken to the lobby. The smell of rotten mold made the faces of the civil servants change color, especially when they saw the terrible scars on the bodies of the Western pirates and the suppurated wounds, several of them simply covered their mouths and rushed out of the lobby.

Fu Kangan pulled the corner of his mouth slightly, revealing a sarcastic smile that was unknown to him. His eyes fell on these Western pirates. The first thing he saw was Irving, who had a silver hair and a rebellious face. His face, which was originally quite upright, was now twisted like a demon crawling out of hell. His resentful gray eyes stared at Liang Pengfei next to him. If his eyes were converted to lethality, Liang Pengfei would have turned into ashes.

However, at the moment, Liang Pengfei turned a blind eye to the white-headed Erwin's eyes, but looked at the white-headed Erwin with an almost admirable look, as if he was admiring their vitality that was as tenacious as Xiaoqiang. He was scratched so many swords on his body and was still able to survive after so long in the sea. This has to be admitted that the limit of human beings is the most incredible.

However, some people couldn't stand it, so Liang Pengfei had to cut off their heads and put them in a box and delivered them.

"He is the White-headed Wong Owen, the Western Barbarian Chief?" Fu Kangan signaled the Portuguese envoy closest to him to come to his side and asked in a bit awkward Latin.
