Imperial County Magistrate

Chapter 448 Layout
"That's what happened. A man on horseback threw the head at the city gate and ran away..."

The soldiers guarding the city carefully recounted everything they had seen before.

The people from Yeguan County Government were even more respectful. The county magistrate quickly said: "Please rest assured, sir, I will work hard to track down the murderer! We will never let them go unpunished!"

Zheng Xuan frowned and looked at Zhao Kang before he could speak.

Zhao Kang said calmly: "This matter is no longer something you, a county official, can handle. Just go down and appease the people."

The county magistrate breathed a sigh of relief and said respectfully: "I obey your orders."

Those people even dared to kill the Jin Yiwei who was supervising hundreds of officials. How could they be afraid of a mere county magistrate?
Therefore, the county magistrate breathed a sigh of relief when he heard that Zhao Kang asked him to appease the people.

There's no way around it. Jianghu influence has always been a headache for officials everywhere. Those with sect influence are fine.

After all, if you can run away, the monk can't run away from the temple.

But it's different for those casual cultivators who often wander around the rivers and lakes. As soon as you kill someone and wait for your officials to arrive, they will have already escaped on horseback. Where can you find someone?
If you encounter those lawless people, it will be even more extreme. Maybe even your officials will be killed.

It is precisely because of this that people in the world are not so afraid of the imperial court.

In the past ten years, there have been hundreds of unsolved cases in various places due to Jianghu people.

As long as your cultivation level is high enough, where can you go in the world?Who in the world cannot be killed?

We are so anxious that we should directly imitate the founding emperor of Jingguo!
Your dynasty has been overthrown!

After leaving the county government, Zhao Kang remained silent, and Zheng Xuan did not dare to say anything.

After returning to his residence, Zhao Kang spoke at this time: "You used to often wander in the rivers and lakes, and you have seen wounds before. Can you identify who did it?"

Zheng Xuan smiled helplessly: "The heads of the three people were all chopped off with a sword. The wounds were smooth and there was no flaw in the tibia. This level can be achieved by any sixth-grade person. To trace them is like looking for a needle in a haystack. "

"But what is certain is that these people are also afraid, otherwise they would not just send their heads."

Zhao Kang closed his eyes and raised the corners of his mouth: "That's it, then don't blame me for being involved."

"What should the Imperial Master do?"

Zhao Kang thought for a while: "Is there any force in the world that specializes in snooping for gossip?"

Zheng Xuan frowned and thought for a moment: "Pingcheng Fengyun Tower."

"Feng Yun Tower?"

Zheng Xuan explained: "This is a sect that specializes in selling information in the arena. There are many people in the sect, and they travel in the arena all year round to collect all kinds of information, such as where the fighting starts, and where the masters appear."

"He has a good reputation in the world of martial arts, and has close contacts with the killer organizations of our country. After all, what the killers who pay for their lives need most is information."

Zhao Kang smiled and said: "I understand, this way we can have fun. Okay, I have to leave for a while. Please take it easy and don't let others do it to you."

Zheng Xuan didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and said calmly: "Don't worry, Imperial Master, those guys have to think carefully if they want to attack me."

The news that three Jinyi guards were slaughtered by martial arts masters spread throughout the surrounding areas of Yeguan within a few days.

Many people are speculating on who has such courage. After all, the power and responsibilities of Jin Yiwei have been notified to all parts of the Qian Kingdom early.

Some restaurant.

A man carrying a sword slowly drank from a glass of wine. A man next to him listened to the discussions of the surrounding diners and sneered: "Brother Lin Feng, you are like thunder in Youzhou now."

Liucheng Junzijian, the master of Thousand Swords Villa glanced at Lei Wuya at the same table indifferently. "The world is about the world. Since Zheng Xuan has become the court's lackey, he should honestly serve those dignitaries. You should not use the court's methods to interfere with the affairs of the world!"

Lei Wuya smiled and nodded in agreement: "Yes, if not, when those officials from the imperial court give orders, wouldn't we all bow our heads and obey them?"

"I just didn't expect that Brother Lin Feng, who has a great business, would actually dare to take action. I heard that the leader of Jin Yiwei, the old eunuch named Fang, is a fourth-level upper-level master!"

Lin Feng snorted coldly when he heard this and said disdainfully: "So what? Does he have the guts to come to my Qianjian Villa?"

Lei Wuya smiled and didn't say anything more. This is the benefit of the sect's power, and there are many masters who can help him.

Not to mention that Lin Feng was still a fourth-grade low-level person. Even if the leader of Jin Yiwei knew that Lin Feng did this, he would never dare to break into Qianjian Villa alone to ask for an explanation.

"There has been no news for these days. Maybe they are deploying troops. What will Brother Lei do?" Lin Feng suddenly said.

Lei Wuya immediately understood that Jun Zijian was still a little worried, and he did not disappoint him.

"I have contacted a few friends. If Jin Yiwei really wants to cause trouble, I will not sit idly by and ignore it. I heard that the Spring God Tea at Qianjian Villa tastes wonderful. I wonder if I will be lucky enough to taste it?"

Lin Feng suddenly laughed: "It's easy to say, it's easy to say, if Brother Lei can come to the humble house, Qianjian Villa will be full of glory!"

The two of them laughed and stood up, not paying any attention to the other diners in the restaurant.

It wasn't until the two of them left that some of the gangsters realized what they were doing.

Qianjian Villa?Could that person be the owner of Liucheng Junzi Jianlin Fenglin Village?

The only person he can call Brother Lei is Lei Wuya, who is known as Lord Lei, right?
This is a well-known figure in the world of martial arts, a magical figure who never sees the end of the dragon!

Unexpectedly, we were so lucky to be able to eat in the same restaurant as the two of them.

This means that it is Jianghu Capital!

Pingcheng.

An old man with a somewhat feminine face was walking on the street. His gray hair showed that he was not young.

He looked harmless, but people passing by him couldn't help but stop and look back at the old man.

It's strange. Why do I feel a little nervous when I pass by this old guy?
Fang Shao came to the alley and counted the house numbers, then stopped in front of a small courtyard and knocked on the door.

He had a lot of anger squeezed out of his heart. He was a dignified commander of the Imperial Guards, and after all, he was a fourth-grade upper-level master.

I didn't expect that these Jianghu people would dare to kill the people under their command. Isn't it true that they have lived in the palace for a long time and their reputation is ruined?
With a cold snort in his heart, Fang Shao looked in the direction of Liucheng with a gloomy gaze. If it weren't for Zhao Kang's letter, he would have arrived at Liucheng Qianjian Villa at this moment.

The bodies of Zheng Xuan's three men were eventually discovered, and he saw them immediately.

From the injury on his neck, he could conclude that the only person in Youzhou who could use such a fast sword was the so-called Gentleman's Sword.

The courtyard door was opened, and Fang Shao showed respect.

Zhao Kang smiled: "Come in."

Only then did Fang Shao step into the courtyard, looking at Zhao Kang, Fang Shao looked a little guilty.

"This old slave is incompetent. I didn't expect that such a trivial matter would alarm you, the Imperial Master."
