At the corner of the street, a sedan appeared, followed menacingly by a group of imperial soldiers armed with spears.
The people showed fear and moved to both sides of the road.
"Mr. Protector!"
Da Liu quickly led his veterans to protect Jin Feng on both sides.
Amei stayed close to Qing Mulan's horse without making a sound.
"Second uncle, save me!"
The tigress originally had her head drooped and looked like she was dying. But when she saw the sedan, she immediately revived with full health, twisted and screamed.
The sedan opened, and an old man in his fifties or sixties got out.
"Second uncle, you have to make the decision for me!"
The tigress cried heartbrokenly.
"Don't worry, Shuang'er, I will cut them into pieces!"
As soon as he saw the tigress hanging on a tree with her skirt torn, the county guard's eyes immediately turned red: "Come here, go and put Shuang'er down."
Several government soldiers quickly ran towards the tigress.
However, at this moment, Jin Feng moved a few steps sideways and stood in front of the tigress.
Lao Liu hurriedly followed with the veterans, staring coldly at the soldiers.
The veterans have all experienced the baptism of war, and recently they have killed several groups of bandits. Their aura is not comparable to that of a group of government soldiers who only know how to show off their power in the county.
Several government soldiers were restrained, stopped one after another, and turned to look at the county guard.
"Boy, I originally wanted to let you live a little longer, save Shuang'er and then slowly process you. Since you are in a hurry to die, then I will help you!"
The county guard gritted his teeth and glanced at Jin Feng, and shouted angrily: "Captain Xiao, you haven't led your men to capture these evil people who are plotting rebellion!"
"Conspiracy to rebel? What a vicious idea!"
When Jin Feng heard this, he couldn't help but narrowed his eyes.
In the feudal era, rebellion was the most serious crime, and it would implicate the nine tribes!
The county guard came up and put this big hat on his head. He no longer wanted to kill someone, but wanted to kill the nine tribes!
"yes!"
A young general in armor immediately waved his hand and gathered the soldiers!
"Form up!"
Liu gave the order and the veterans immediately formed a battle formation.
Four veterans held long knives in front, and the rest held crossbows in the back.
"They have crossbows!"
As soon as the county guard saw the crossbow, his expression suddenly changed, and he subconsciously hid behind the slave, causing one of his shoes to slip away.
The few soldiers at the front were even more unbearable. They were so frightened that they rushed into the crowd of onlookers with their heads in their hands.
It's not that the county guard is too timid, but that the society of Dakang is too chaotic. Many people who can't survive will choose to take desperate risks and use someone to support them as an official before they die.
Two years ago, the son of the governor of the neighboring county kidnapped a young girl on the street. The girl's four brothers took advantage of the fact that the governor's family went out for a banquet and hacked and killed the governor's family in the street.
For a moment, the surrounding officials were frightened. Could the county guard not be afraid when he saw the crossbow?
"Captain Xiao, what are you doing standing still? Take action quickly!"
After regaining his composure, the county guard finally realized that he had lost his temper and shouted angrily: "If anyone resists, kill them on the spot!"
"yes!"
Lieutenant Xiao was actually a little scared, but the county guard gave the order, so he had no choice but to bite the bullet and drive the soldiers forward.
"He ordered the killing on the spot without asking any questions. The Sheriff has such great authority!"
Jin Feng shouted coldly: "If you have the guts, don't hide behind, stand up and speak!"
"You are a rebellious thief and you are not worthy of talking to me!"
The county guard wouldn't come out even though he knew there was a crossbow aimed at him.
"Don't deserve to talk to you?"
Jin Feng sneered, took out a token from his arms and raised it: "Let's see, Lord Sheriff, am I qualified to talk to you now?"
The governor narrowed his eyes and looked along the seam of the slave's arm.
When he saw the words and patterns on the token clearly, the county guard's pupils shrank to the point of a needle.
As a county guard, he understood the meaning of the token at a glance.
"It's over now, how can Jin Feng be a distinguished person?"
The governor was in a state of confusion.
Yes, he knew Jin Feng's identity before coming here, but he didn't take it to heart at all.
Several poems written by Jin Feng are regarded as masterpieces by the common people, but are not liked by those in power.
So he understood that no matter how talented Jin Feng was, he would never be able to become a high official in this life.
Since ancient times, there have been too many talented people who were not reused.
Crushing an untouchable to death couldn't be easier for him as a county guard, he could just find any excuse.
But he never expected that Jin Feng would actually be a noble!
According to Dakang regulations, local officials have no right to arrest and judge nobles.
If Jin Feng is unreasonable in this matter, that's it, he can report it to the court.
But he knew his niece's temperament very well, and he also learned about what happened on the way here, and knew that his niece was not taking the matter seriously.
If Jin Feng wants to pursue the case, he has no choice.
However, after knowing that Jin Feng was not a desperado, he no longer worried that Jin Feng would shoot him for no reason.
He put on his shoes and walked out from behind the slave.
"Am I qualified to talk to you now?"
Jin Feng asked with a sneer.
"Sir, this is all a misunderstanding..."
The niece he loved most was still in the hands of the other party, so the county guard could only talk with a smile on his face.
"Misunderstanding? The crime of treason is also a misunderstanding?"
Jin Feng's eyes became sharp.
"It's really a misunderstanding. You don't know that a group of gangsters broke into Qinjiazhuang outside the city some time ago and killed more than ten innocent people."
The county guard said: "According to the local people, the gangsters all rode horses when they committed crimes. Just now, when I saw that there are so many of you, sir, and all of you are riding horses and carrying swords, I mistakenly thought that you were the murderers."
The county guard can be said to be an important member of the party. Baron Jin Feng only has the status of a nobleman and has no real power, so he has nothing to do with the other party.
Jin Feng also understood this and was too lazy to broach the issue with the county guard. He waved his hand and said, "Since the county guard has told you about the misunderstanding, please come back."
"Thank you, Mr. Jin. I have always liked talented scholars. Your poems are all very good. Come to my house when you have time, and we can discuss them together."
The county guard didn't want to make the matter a big deal, so he gave it up and prepared to free the tigress himself.
But as soon as he took two steps, he was blocked by Jin Feng sideways again.
"Mr. Jin, what do you mean?"
The governor's face turned cold and his tone was a little unhappy.
"Master Sheriff, I just said you can go back, not her!"
Just kidding, if it was so easy to let the county guard take the person away, why did he wait so long?
Wasn’t that whipping in vain?
"Mr. Jin, Shuang'er didn't know his identity and bumped into him. It was her fault. But you have already taught her a lesson. What else do you want?"
The county guard frowned and asked.
In his opinion, he had given Jin Feng a lot of face, but Jin Feng was a little extravagant.
