"Sir Tong...Tongzhi, I'm...in the government office." The head of the government office was frightened by the corpse that was still bleeding in front of him.
Looking at Li Changan with a smile on his face, he felt even more frightened.
"I know." Li Changan patted the shivering yamen leader, "I just want to ask him a few questions in front of the people."
As he said that, he took out the right counselor's token from his arms and said, "Take my token and invite him over."
The head yamen officer took the token and ran towards the government yamen staggeringly as if he had lost his mind.
The people around him were all silent and retreated outside, looking at Li Changan in fear and not daring to speak.
The chiefs and clerks came to their senses and quickly spread the news.
The ten envoys in the Shuiyun Pavilion all took out the Thousand Miles Transmission Symbol at the same time, and their expressions instantly became particularly wonderful.
"This... this is... Uncle Zhongyong's solution?" Shen Hansong's face trembled slightly, "Isn't it too reckless?"
Qin Xiangming looked at Zou Boxun and said, "Master Zou, killing Uncle Zhongyong like this won't solve the problem."
"Sihai Grain Store has some relationship with Bailu Academy, but there are many grain stores that are related to other three academies and one prison."
"Is it possible that he wants to kill every family?"
Zou Boxun couldn't feel Li Changan's pulse either. He looked at each other and Han Shouzheng, then nodded.
"Since this matter has been handed over to Uncle Zhongyong, let him take full responsibility."
"We just need to ensure his safety and wait and see what happens."
…
Li Changan asked the shivering grain store clerk to move a chair, and he sat next to the body at the door, quietly waiting for his colleagues to come over.
The surrounding principals and clerks looked at Li Changan with complicated expressions.
Who would have thought that Li Changan would dare to kill with a sword?
As expected, he was someone who survived the Three Thousand Miles Battlefield in Fengchuan.
Even though Li Changan's literary skills have been abolished, his martial arts is only at the seventh level, which is at least one level weaker than them.
But this murderous aura is really frightening.
"This matter is a bit tricky. In the final analysis, the officials behind the grain store are the crux of the matter."
"He Li Changan can kill civilians, is it possible that he also kills fellow intellectuals?"
"If you want to punish a crime committed by a government official, you must go through the Dali Temple, the Ministry of Punishment, and finally the Metropolitan Procuratorate for review before you can be convicted."
"How can we take action now?"
"Besides, Tongzhi's strength is at least the sixth level. I heard that Tongzhi of Pingyao Prefecture has reached the fifth level of Wen Dao. How can he kill him?"
These principals and clerks were talking softly.
Li Changan's slash was very satisfying, but he also put himself on the line.
If you go ahead, you can't convict Tongzhi, and you can't cut off Tongzhi's head.
Retreating, for no reason, undermined the dignity he had just established, and affected the entire Southern Patrol Division.
dilemma!
After a while, Lin Heming, the deputy governor of Pingyao Prefecture, came over and looked at the body and head at the door of Sihai Grain Store, his face was ashen.
"I don't know what Councilor Li is calling me to come over. What do you mean?"
You Shenhui is the fifth grade, and Tongzhi is also the fifth grade.
The two were of the same rank, so Lin Heming naturally lost the honorific title.
Li Changan also had no intention of saluting Lin Heming. He still sat on the chair and pointed the Hengyue knife in his hand at the grain store behind him.
"I would like to ask Lord Tongzhi, do you want to sell the food here or not?"
Lin Heming narrowed his eyes slightly, "Of course it's for sale, but you can get as much money as you need."
"Three hundred coins per pound, no credit!"
"In addition, if Counselor Li kills someone in the street, Lin will report it to the court."
Li Changan smiled and nodded, "Tongzhi, Sir, it's up to you."
"Before that, I have to spend fifteen cents per catty to buy grain from the grain store. Do you want to sell it or not?"
Rumble...
These words spread around like thunder.
Everyone was shocked.
Li Changan's courage is really too great.
How dare you talk to your colleagues like this, and directly reduce the sky-high price of grain to fifteen cents per catty.
Simply appalling!
Everyone's eyes turned to Lin Heming, whose face was ashen.
Lin Heming looked at the calm Li Changan, unsure of what he was thinking right now.
Do you really want to fight until the end?
At such a price, how can you still make money?
If you want silver, you can buy it for three hundred coins. At worst, you can split it equally with him, right?
Anyway, it was the imperial court’s disaster relief money that was spent.
Fifteen cents per catty. According to the current market conditions, you can only earn two cents per catty.
How about opening a shitty grain store?
If we don't take this opportunity to make a fortune, how can we cope with the chaos in the Three Prefectures in the South?
Lin Heming suppressed the fierce look in his eyes and said, "Counsellor Li, why don't we go to the government office first and discuss it carefully?"
I thought Li Changan would borrow the donkey from Poxia and go back to the government office to discuss how to divide the money.
This is also the usual trick of those imperial envoys, and it has never failed.
But unexpectedly, Li Changan still shook his head, sat on the chair, clapped the Hengyue Sword in his hand,
"Master Tongzhi, just tell me directly here in front of all the people."
"Fifteen cents per catty, to sell or not to sell?"
Lin Heming was completely angry.
All clay figures have three kinds of fire.
You are just a young boy. I am giving you face, but you humiliate me in public?
It is tolerable, but what is intolerable!
"Senior Li..." Lin Heming's voice contained suppressed anger,
"Three hundred coins per catty, no counter-offer!"
Li Changan smiled, "Very good! Master Tongzhi's food prices are indeed very high!"
As he spoke, he stood up slowly, and a stream of murderous aura escaped without reservation.
"I have been ordered by the Governor of the Southern Patrol, Shangge, to resolve all matters regarding unified grain purchase."
"Anyone who obstructs the implementation of the decree will be executed!"
The sound was low but clear to everyone's ears.
The clerks and principals all opened their eyes in shock.
"What is he going to do!?"
"Kill a fifth-grade fellow!?"
"The people he just killed were civilians, so he'll kill them. Now he wants to kill a high-ranking official of the imperial court?"
"Is Li Changan crazy?"
The people who heard the sound opened their mouths in disbelief and couldn't believe their ears.
"This...is this going to kill Master Tongzhi in public?"
Someone recognized Li Changan,
"I know who he is!"
"He is Zhongyongbo Li Chang'an!"
"He is really Uncle Zhongyong, no wonder he has such evil aura."
"I heard that he killed countless monsters in Fengchuan."
…
Lin Heming laughed angrily and looked at Li Changan, not hiding his murderous intent.
I repeatedly gave him face, but in the end, I didn't appreciate it and wanted to kill myself in public.
Do you really think he is a sick cat?
"I am the co-prefect of Pingyao Prefecture, with an official rank of the fifth rank, second only to the prefect."
"If you want to be punished, you can only convict me if the imperial court personally issues an order and waits for a joint trial by the three departments."
"If you want to take me, Counselor Li is not qualified yet!"
Li Changan took out a jade plaque from his arms and said with a smile, "This is the Zhenfu Envoy token given to me by the Zhenfu Envoy."
"The imperial edict says that the Southern Patrol Governor has the power to act arbitrarily!"
"Today I am going to kill you, there is no need for a three-level trial!"
With that said, Li Changan drew out the Hengyue Sword and pointed the tip directly at Lin Heming.
At this time, a chief officer hurried forward and persuaded in a low voice, "Sir, how can officials be at each other's swords?"
"This move will greatly damage the dignity of the imperial court..."
"Is the imperial court majestic?" Li Changan sneered.
The injured man's cut-off calf seemed to float before his eyes, the people who were dying of sallow complexion, and the children who were about to die and were regarded as prey again.
"What is dignity? Does the dignity of the imperial court depend on these corrupt officials?"
"Dignity means coldly watching people starve to death?"
"Dignity is to knock people's bones and suck their marrow?"
"When the common people are not treated as human beings, the majesty of the imperial court is worthless!"
"You said that if I kill him, it will damage the dignity of the imperial court?"
Li Changan walked towards Lin Heming step by step,
"Wrong, absolutely wrong. The dignity of the imperial court has been completely destroyed by such beasts."
"Master Tongzhi, remember that after you go down, kowtow to the dead people and admit your mistake."
Lin Heming took a deep breath, and the fifth-grade writing instrument in his palm swirled around, and the rich literary energy diffused out.
"Consultant Li stabbed me in public, so don't blame me for resisting."
"If your hands are not serious and you hurt Senator Li, don't blame me."
The people around them couldn't help but have worried looks in their eyes, and they hurriedly said,
"Bo Zhongyong's martial art has been abolished, and I heard that his martial arts is only at the seventh level. How can he be Lin Tongzhi's opponent?"
"Uncle Zhongyong is speaking for us, but we must not let anything happen!"
…
The other chief clerks frowned,
"What exactly does Li Changan want to do?"
"Literary education has been abolished, and there is only seventh-grade martial arts. What can you do?"
"Do you think you didn't die quickly enough?"
"Do you want to save me?"
"What to save? You will do your own harm and you will not survive!"
Among the crowd, Xue Shiqing couldn't help but spread the news.
In Shuiyun Pavilion,
Zou Boxun stood up suddenly, his eyes flashing,
"Li Chang'an wanted to kill Tong Zhi in public, and Tong Zhi also used cultural relics."
"No, Li Changan is definitely no match..."
Before he finished speaking, he strode out of Shuiyun Pavilion and prepared to fly to Sihai Granary to stop this fight.
However, the next moment,
A terrifying pressure as huge as a mountain rumbled across the sky.
The pressure was so great that all the scribes in the city could not resist and bent down one after another.
