Chapter 162: Open your dog eyes and see clearly

Nan Xi looked aside for a long time and touched her with his shoulder: "They were having a great time chatting. They seemed to be getting along very well."

Li Qingmo took out some preserved fruit and fed it to Nan Xi's mouth, "He has never been out of the capital and is short-sighted, which makes Nan'er laugh."

His voice was not deliberately lowered, and even Xia Rui and Lan Jue could hear it outside.

Li Beimu: "..."

The emperor's uncle was too disrespectful to him.

There was another carriage behind, and the man sitting in it was shopkeeper Wen. He sat on the shaft of the carriage and drove the carriage by himself. Sometimes he looked at the carriage in front with a worried look on his face.

He never thought that he would alert the regent.

But this seems good, let’s see how the Bao family and the local government put on airs.

It takes a whole day to get to Ancheng City. When we entered the city, it was just in time for the curfew and the city gate was about to close.

"It's time, everyone, please retreat. We can't enter the city until dawn tomorrow." The guard guard drove the people away angrily. The two people behind him were holding up spears, one more fierce than the other.

Xia Rui pointed to the city gate: "Isn't it still closed?"

The tall soldier snorted: "It will be closed soon."

But the two people behind him didn't move yet, they just looked at Xia Rui and Lan Jue, obviously looking for benefits.

They were not the only people waiting to enter the city, there were others.

They seemed to have known that the gatekeeper would be like this. They had prepared the money early, and after stuffing it through, the two soldiers with spears immediately let him go.

There was an old man with gray hair and a stooped back who couldn't afford the money. He was stopped and said helplessly to Xia Rui: "That's how it is here. If you don't give money at this time every night, you can't get in. Alas, you have to pay again." Just spent the night in the woods."

Lan Jue jumped down from the carriage, "Uncle, I see there is an inn outside the city? Why don't you go there?"

The old man sighed, with a bit of mockery in his tone: "They also run that inn. If I have the money to stay in the hotel, I will go into the city. Where can I use it outside?"

With that said, he walked back the way he came.

The tall soldier urged fiercely: "Are you going in or not? If not, get out of here!"

Lan Jue's hand that had just reached into his arms to take the money paused.

His face darkened: "What if we have to go in?"

"Oh, are you looking for trouble? You can't get in through this gate today. If you dare to talk to me again, I'll arrest you all!" The tall soldier waved his hand and asked the people behind him to close the city gate.

Whoosh!
Xia Rui directly took the bow and arrow from his horse and shot an arrow at the feet of the three soldiers.

Then he jumped up and kicked the tall soldier on the back.

The tall soldier was kicked and flew up, knocking down the other two soldiers. Three people were lying on the ground. One of them's spear cut the other's arm, and blood seeped out.

"Oh shit!"

The tall soldier cursed angrily.

Just as he was about to get up, Xia Rui stepped on him.

He took out the token: "Open your dog eyes and see clearly. How dare you stop the regent when he comes? I'm afraid you'll lose your life if I give you money!"

"Fuck! If you are the regent, I will be the emperor. If you dare to hit me, I will twist your head off!"

Xia Rui leaned over and punched him.

"Then let's see whose head moves first?"

Turning his head, Xia Rui waved to Lan Jue: "Rope."

The two of them tied up the three soldiers.

Others who were preparing to enter the city were stunned.

Xia Rui directly pushed open the half-closed city gate, "Hurry up and enter the city. If you are late, it will be too late."

The curfew is a must, and there is no rule without rules, so after they enter, they also have to close the city gate. This is their responsibility to the people in the city.

The old man who had left just now came back and entered the city before the city gate closed.

"The person sitting in this carriage is really the regent?" the old man asked.Xia Rui didn't answer, but just asked: "Old man, how to get to the government office?"

The old man raised his hand and pointed: "Follow this road to the north, first turn left, then turn right, and then pass through two alleys and you will arrive."

Lan Jue turned to the carriage and asked for instructions: "Master?"

Li Qingmo: "Go to the government office."

"Yes."

Lan Jue and Xia Rui got on the shaft and continued driving, while the three soldiers were tied behind the carriage.

"I didn't expect Xia Rui to have a bad temper." Nan Xi said with a smile.

Li Beimu rushed to say: "He usually has a good temper, but he can't listen to others talking about the emperor's uncle. It's like a firecracker, exploding at the first moment."

Li Qingmo glanced at him.

Li Beimu didn't know why: "What's wrong, uncle?"

Wen Ying glanced at Li Beimu with speechless eyes.

It's really a miracle that the little emperor has been able to sit on the throne for so many years.

When he arrived at the government office, Xia Rui threw the three soldiers directly at the door.

Soon someone reported the matter to Fu Yin.

When Fu Yin walked out quickly, he brought a dozen government servants with him.

"Who dares to be so arrogant here?"

He stood at the door, waved his hand and ordered: "Come on, take down these troublemakers!"

Xia Rui showed his token again: "Master Sun Fanggui, you'd better open your eyes and see clearly."

Sun Fanggui stepped forward, squinted his eyes and took a closer look. His back felt cold with shock, and he knelt down in a hurry.

"My minister sees the Regent."

Li Qingmo took Nan Xi's hand and stepped out of the carriage, his cold eyes falling on Sun Fanggui.

"Not to mention Dongyue, even within the four kingdoms, there is no place that dares to accept money from me to enter. Master Sun is quite capable of handling it."

Sun Fanggui was so frightened that he broke into a cold sweat and pretended to be shocked: "Cashier? Is it at the city gate? They must have made their own decisions. The subordinate officials were not strict in discipline and accepted the punishment voluntarily."

The three soldiers on the ground knew that the regent was really here. They regretted it and wanted to defend themselves.

After all, no one wants to be the scapegoat. This matter is neither big nor small. If it doesn’t happen, it will really cost you your head.

But just as he was about to speak, he saw Sun Fanggui's peripheral vision glancing at them coldly.

Their minds were shaken, and the three of them thought of their families at the same time.

If the adults are betrayed now, their families will definitely be implicated.

Thinking of this, they reluctantly closed their mouths.

The three of them were quickly taken down, and Sun Fanggui led Nan Xi and the others into the inner hall.

"I wonder what the Lord is doing when he comes here?"

Nan Xi directly took out the receipt from shopkeeper Wen and pointed at him.

"This is the father of Bao Dafu's wife Wen Qianqian. He has objections to the cause of Wen Qianqian's death. Mr. Jingzhao Yintang specially sent me to do an autopsy."

Sun Fanggui took the paper and looked at it, a little embarrassed: "But Mrs. Bao has been buried, and it is best to lay her to rest."

If you want to re-examine the body, you have to open the coffin and break the ground.

"This will ruin the feng shui, and I'm afraid the Bao family won't agree."

Shopkeeper Wen was very insistent: "Qianqian is my daughter, I don't mind this, is it okay?"

Sun Fanggui sighed and said, "But your daughter is buried in the ancestral grave of the Bao family."
