Chapter 391 – Brawler Fighting Magistrate
Two hundred men were crawling on the ground. They were tied up with ropes. The scene of them pulling an ordinary carriage into the city must have been unforgettable for the citizens of Waian County. Before long, both sides of the street were filled with people. No matter where it was, the nature to watch the scene couldn’t be changed. Even if one knew that there was danger, it wouldn’t be able to stop the curiosity of humans.
When the two hundred men pulled the carriage into the city, there were dozens of yamen runners guarding a fat man with a gloomy expression, dressed in embroidered clothes. In this era, ordinary people were not qualified to wear silk clothing. The fatty stood there, and the eyes of the commoners were filled with fear. Therefore, An Zheng did not need to ask to know who this fellow was.
There were garrisons of soldiers stationed in Wuan City. Although there were not many people, only five hundred people. However, at this time, almost all of the five hundred people were stationed here. There were people on the walls and rooftops. The archers had already pulled their bows, ready to shoot the arrows at any moment.
An Zheng swept his eyes across those soldiers and suddenly felt his heart aching.
They were both soldiers. Nie Qing and the others fought on the battlefield, but these people became the blades of the officials and the underworld. Of course, An Zheng knew that these places where the garrison troops lived would be very hard, but hard work was not the reason to become dogs.
“Let me advise all of you.”
Wang Yanshan swept his gaze across An Zheng, and did not immediately tear up his face: “From the way you are dressed, you should be young disciples from some sect? I don’t care about the so-called chivalry that you people in the martial arts world like. But by doing this, you have violated the laws of the great swallow. I personally admire the chivalry in your young people, so I can let them go and you can leave. ”
An Zheng pulled a scoundrel who was lying on the ground over and sat down as a stool. He crossed his legs and looked at Wang Yanshan: “You are that dog of a grandson.
Du Shoushou said seriously: “The dog should not agree.”
Although Wang Yanshan’s expression was extremely ugly when he spoke like that, he was even more suspicious. Of course, he knew how terrifying cultivators were, so his family had also invited a few reverends. However, he wasn’t a cultivator, and was used to believing that the older a cultivator was, the more powerful they would be. As for young cultivators, even if they were cultivators, there was nothing to fear.
This was the so-called fearlessness of the ignorant.
An Zheng looked ahead: “One more to go. Where did that Master Lu go? I’ve got all his lackeys here, aren’t you going to come and get them? ”
Wang Yanshan had worked as a government official for many years and was most adept at observing people’s words and expressions. Otherwise, with so many people in the imperial government controlling the situation, he would have been as stable as a mountain. However, the place still limited his vision. In such a small place like Wyan County, there wasn’t even a sect of cultivators. How high could his standards be? However, this man’s greatest ability was his eyesight. He could tell that with An Zheng’s temperament, he was no ordinary person.
So he began to regret that he should not have gathered the defenders after hearing the news. The magistrate was the magistrate of a county, and the magistrate was the commander of the local army. Therefore, in that instant, Wang Yanshan had already made the decision to sell out the county magistrate, Song Hai. If these youngsters really had an extraordinary background, then the responsibility of mobilizing the army would be put on the shoulders of Song Haohai. In any case, he was a county magistrate, so he was the one who commanded the garrison troops.
“Excuse me, where are you from?”
Wang Yanshan’s expression softened, and asked with a smile. He was actually a bit more humble than before.
Without waiting for An Zheng to speak, the outspoken Du Shoushou shouted, “This grandpa is from the Fanggu. Why? This grandpa is Heavenly Awakening Sect Du Shoushou, did you remember that? ”
Heavenly Awakening Sect!
Wang Yanshan’s heart suddenly shook, thinking that it was fortunate that he did not do anything too out of line. Who didn’t know that the hottest person in the great swallow was the hottest person in the world? Although he was in a remote little county in the northwest of the city, he still heard the names of Heavenly Awakening Sect’s seniors like thunder. However, he still doubted the origins of those old men.
An Zheng, Prince Fu, was above everyone else! It was rumored that Du Shoushou was already a Fourth Rank General, and there were even two girls. But the King had treated his as his own sister, so why was his journey so simple? You didn’t even bring a follower?
Two young men and two young girls. Although their numbers and rumored appearances were basically the same, what if they were charlatans?
Wang Yanshan thought about it again, who would dare to pretend to be the Heavenly Awakening Sect’s lords after eating the Bear-Heart Leopard!
Therefore, Wang Yanshan immediately changed his face and laughed: “It’s really a misunderstanding, so it’s General Du, this is really a big water rush to the Dragon King’s Temple, a family does not recognize each other.”
He turned around and angrily scolded Song Zhihai, “Look at what you’ve done!” This is General Du, from Fanggu, an important official of our nation! You ignorant fool, why aren’t you bringing your men back! Offended General Du, I want to see how many of your brains you can handle! ”
Song Zhi’s expression was calm as he glanced at Wang Yanshan, then turned and left, not saying a single word. With his eyesight, An Zheng could easily tell that Song Zhi Hai and Wang Yanshan were not the same kind of people. First of all, although the gaze Song Luohai used to look at Wang Yanshan and the others was calm, it was one of disregard and despair, despair toward this world. As he looked at Song Haohai, he saw that his official uniform was very old. Although it was clean, there was actually a patch on it.
A county magistrate, the number two figure in the county magistrate court, was actually in such dire straits?
An Zheng looked at Du Shoushou, who was well aware: “Don’t be in sucurry to leave, we are not even here yet. “I heard that a great figure named Lu Ming has appeared in your Huian County. I am extremely respectful to him and have specially come to visit him. I wonder if he is here?”
At this moment, a group of more than a hundred aggressive people appeared on another street, led by a rather sturdy looking man. He was 1.8 meters in height, was wearing a brocade robe, and held a long blade in his hand. This man was walking at the front of the group. When he saw the soldiers surrounding the entrance, he knew that the magistrate had already taken action, so he was emboldened.
As he walked, he scolded, “F * ck his mother, even my people dare to move!” Today, I wanted to see where this old man came from. He actually dared to act so arrogantly in Waian County. Master Lu is a domineering ancestor! Fucking arrest them all, everybody get off two arms first and then we’ll talk! “” No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no...
The group of people behind him rushed forward to attack, but when they rushed to the front, they realized that something was wrong.
“How dare you!”
Wang Yanshan glared at Lu Ming and scolded, “Where did this dog come from? How dare he offend an adult from the imperial court!”
An adult from the imperial court?
Of course, Lu Ming wasn’t an idiot, his words woke him up. The reason why this person could stay open like this and become Wang Yanshan’s right-hand man was because he had a quick and clever mind. He immediately shouted to his subordinates who were kneeling on the ground: “Fuck, I knew that you guys were not good people. You guys have been pulling people together all day, and you’ve really committed a grave mistake today!” “He actually dares to offend an adult from the imperial court, he’s really courting death!”
Those people who had been beaten up by Du Shoushou were all stunned, and looked at Lu Ming in shock. They had originally planned to enter the city with the County Magistrate and Master Lu backing them up, but when they heard that they were important figures from the imperial court, they knew that they were going to be extremely unlucky.
However, they never expected Lu Ming to be so shameless.
Lu Ming rushed over, punched and kicked them, then laughed and said to An Zheng and the others: “These people are all hoodlums from our place, I’ve wanted to teach them a lesson for a long time. The adults haven’t fertilized yet, right? I’ll teach them a good lesson when I get back! This bunch of blind bastards are asking for a beating! ”
An Zheng squinted his eyes as he looked at this person called Lu Ming, thinking about how bad a person could become before they were no longer the same person. Although this Lu Ming was just a small fry, he was able to do evil in a county and had at least tens of thousands of victims.
An Zheng sat on top of the scoundrel who was kneeling down, and after looking at the people opposite him he laughed: “Alright, since everyone is gathered, I will not enter the county magistrate court anymore. I still have urgent matters to attend to. I heard that this place is very strange, so I intentionally delayed for a while to see how strange it is. Your name is Song Hai? ”
County Magistrate Song Zhihai quickly said, “This official is none other than the county magistrate of Huaian County, Song Zhihai.”
An Zheng agreed as he took a order badge and threw it at Song Hai. Song Dahai took the token and looked at it, then he kneeled down and said, “My name is Song Zhihai from Huaian County, and I pay my respects to Prince Fu!”
Prince Fu!
The county caused Wang Yanshan’s mind to buzz for a moment, thinking about what he should do if he was afraid. Although he already had some guesses, he still trembled in fear when he heard this. He also quickly kneeled down and placed his head on the ground, “I am Wei An County’s magistrate, Wang Yanshan, greets Prince Fu.”
Lu Ming was stupefied. Although he had no experience, he was still the worst bully in the world. The ignorant was fearless, and he did not understand why the magistrate wanted to kneel. This was because he did not know much about the Duke of Guo’s identity. He did not know how much older the Duke of Guo was than the county magistrate. When he had heard that it was an official from the capital, he had felt that he should give her face. After all, she was an official. However, he didn’t expect the magistrate to be so afraid that he would kneel down. He hadn’t seen the County Magistrate kneel to anyone in all this time.
However, he was smart. He knew that his men had offended that Prince Fu and even the county magistrate was on his knees. If the county magistrate were to be punished, he would definitely withdraw and act as a scapegoat. He knew that even if he was protected by the officials in the government, nothing bad would happen to the county magistrate. It was all due to his bad luck.
Therefore, his mind was racing as he tried to think of a way to pass today’s trial.
“Oh, from the looks of it, I’m afraid I’m going to be unlucky today?”
Thinking of his ending, Lu Ming was no longer as cautious. He stood up straight and looked at Wang Yanshan: “Since you’re kneeling like this, you are obviously afraid of the heavens. If this big shot from the capital blames anything, you will definitely push everything to me, right? I saw that the atmosphere today was not right, and I might even die. “But I don’t want to die, so I have to find a way to not die.”
He looked at An Zheng. “I can’t read, I’ve never read, and I don’t know what identity the Prince Fu has. So I want a word from you. Are you going to kill me? If that’s the case, then it’s a dead end. If I die, I won’t let you live. If I can’t die, then you have a condition. Do you want money or something else? There’s nothing in Wyan County I can’t get. Silver, a woman? ”
He pointed at Wang Yanshan: “That’s jusiece of trash. Without my help, he would have been killed long ago. So, my lord, you’d better think clearly whether you want to kill me or him. “If he is dead, you can take whoever you want as the county magistrate. I promise you that I will cooperate with him. With me here, this poor and evil citizen of Waian County will not dare to cause any trouble.”
He saw An Zheng sitting down and kicked the little brother beside him down. He sat on the back of the little brother and looked at An Zheng: “I know that the Level One Officer can crush me to death, but I’m not an official. I’m a snake. If you want to suppress me, I’ll have to bite you. Even if I don’t die, I’ll still have to bite you, right? I’m not a fool, I see everything, and I’m quick. Therefore, I can tell right away that when that Wang Yanshan dog kneeled down, he was just thinking about how to sell me out. ”
“Rather than that, we might as well make things clear. Since I’m a hooligan, I don’t have much face to speak of. I’m afraid of dying even if I’m not afraid of losing face. Wang Yanshan kept on saying that I was his dog, but in truth, it didn’t matter whose dog I was. Master, if you think it was worth it, then you have to change to Wang Yanshan. If you think I’m useful, you can take me to the capital. I know that there are a lot of things you officials can’t do in person. “Anyways, I have done enough bad things, so I’m not afraid of retribution. If you have any instructions, just say it. If I can do it, then I’ll do it.”
He pointed to himself. “I want to live.”
An Zheng couldn’t help but laugh, this Lu Ming waypical local tyrant. He turned around and looked at Wang Yanshan who was kneeling on the ground: “Master Wang, it seems that the dog you’re raising isn’t so good, I’m ready to bite you.”
Wang Yanshan raised his head and cursed at Lu Ming: “You fucking dog, don’t spout nonsense?!”
He kept on kowtowing to An Zheng: “Prince Fu, he is just spouting nonsense. Although this official is stupid, I am extremely conscientious and do not dare to go against the laws of the country. Your excellency, you can clearly see … The amount of money and grains that this lowly official had to pay each year was equally high, and it was an excessive amount of money and taxes. The Ministry of Revenue’s reward for this official had just arrived, and the Minister of Revenue also knew that this official was diligent in his duties. “This Lu Ming is just a local scoundrel. This official has misjudged you and this official will personally punish him!”
“Hahahaha!”
Lu Ming laughed, “You did it to me?”
He pointed at Wang Yanshan and cursed: “If it wasn’t for me, who the hell would be working for you?”
He raised his hand and pointed at the officials. “They? Whoever listens to you, I will not stop them from making money! Just based on those few lousy money you gave them, will they work for you?! ”
“And them!”
Lu Ming pointed at the garrison troops and asked, “Ask them, who do they listen to?”
Lu Ming stood up abruptly: “All of you, f * cking surround them. You all know how much you’ve charged me for all these years. If I die, none of you will be able to get away with it.” Everyone, let’s fight it out. You’re still the f * cking local tyrant! ”
All of a sudden, all the yamen runners brought out their weapons.
