Magistrate Lin's hat was knocked off his head, and his eyes widened in complete disbelief.
"Ji, Ji Xun, how dare you beat up the imperial official? You, have you rebelled?"
"Pah" was another slap. Magistrate Lin's official hat swayed on his head and fell to the ground.
County Magistrate Lin was completely stunned by the beating. He lowered the killing stick in his hand, then immediately raised it again, "You bitch."
"Snapped!"
"I want to kill
"Snapped!'
"Why don't you take him quickly?
"Crack!"
The government officials also looked at each other, do you want to go up and help?
Although this Ji Xun is a hunter, he was unjustly accused and killed last time, which alarmed the Inspector. Zhang Neng, who is next to the Inspector, is very respectful to him. I heard that he is the son-in-law who comes to Shenjia Village from other places. Maybe he is.
Relatives of the governor.
Look at him beating County Magistrate Lin right now? He showed no mercy, and even threatened that Magistrate Lin’s head was in jeopardy, and I’m afraid Ji Xun couldn’t be offended. No one in the group of government servants dared to step forward to help, so they just let Ji Xun get slapped.
Magistrate Lin was slapped five or six times! Magistrate Lin was beaten until his nose bleeds, his eyes were filled with stars, he staggered and fell to the ground.
Seeing that his official hat had fallen to the ground, he wanted to reach out to pick it up, but Ji Xun stepped on him with his foot!
"You still want to wear an official hat? Everyone's head is gone, so why not wear it around your neck?"
Ji Xun's voice was frighteningly cold. As he spoke, he kicked his official hat away and left the county office with the unconscious Shen Yuyu in his arms. County Magistrate Lin wiped his nosebleed and sat on the ground, dizzy.
Before leaving the house, Ji Xun glanced at Hong Luan. Hong Luan's heart suddenly clenched. He was afraid of being angered by the Night King. Look how nervous he was towards Shen Yuhu. Could it be that he really fell in love with her?
?
This country bumpkin was really lucky. He was able to marry His Highness the Night King by accident, and he was so lucky to win His Highness the Night King's favor. I don't know how many lifetimes he has accumulated this blessing.
On the other hand, my own lady, who was of noble birth and beauty, tried her best to win the smile of His Highness the Night King, and now she got into a gangster's carriage and her whereabouts are unknown.
"Old Zhao? Why don't we write a letter and tell the master about the young lady? If we delay it any longer, the young lady will be in danger." She had been in danger of being strangled by gangsters, and she always felt that the young lady's disappearance was not that simple.
Maybe it has nothing to do with Shen Yuyu at all. If you continue to investigate like this randomly, I'm afraid it will delay the young lady's life.
But Lao Zhao shook his head desperately: "You can't tell the master. If the master finds out, we will be sold out even if the young lady is found. I have an elder and a younger one, so I can't lose this job."
When Hong Luan heard that he might be sold, he shut up.
She has been with the young lady since she was five years old, and she and the young lady have been friends since childhood. Although the young lady has a bad temper, she has never treated her harshly in other aspects, and she does not want to be betrayed.
"Miss Hongluan, who is Ji Xun?" Lao Zhao whispered into Hongluan's ear.
He always felt that the young lady had an ulterior motive for coming to Shenjia Village, and besides, these days the young lady's target was only Ji Xun, and she was obsessed with getting Ji Xun to marry her.
How could he understand his own lady? If Ji Xun was really nothing but Miss Orion, how could she possibly fall in love with him?
He even dared to beat up the county magistrate, so his identity must not be simple.
"I, I don't know." How dare Hong Luan say that? His Highness the Night King let it go and dared to reveal his information and plan to destroy the nine Ding family clans. How many heads did she have to be chopped off by His Highness the Night King?
Seeing that Hongluan refused to talk, Lao Zhao stopped asking and continued to sit there and wait for Magistrate Lin's arrangements.
Magistrate Lin wiped his nosebleed with a confused face, full of questions, who am I? Where am I? Who was I beaten just now?
"Sir, how are you?" Seeing that Ji Xun had left, the Yamen servant dared to go up to Fulin County Magistrate.
"Don't you have eyes? Are you still asking?" Magistrate Lin's old face was turned red from being beaten. He took out a handkerchief and wiped his nosebleed while cursing fiercely, "Ji Xun, a damn hunter, how dare you beat the court official?
How dare you take away the suspect? If you catch him, he will be punished by death."
While cursing, he got up from the ground and pointed at the official hat that had been kicked to the corner by Ji Xun: "Go and pick up my official hat."
"Yes, sir." A government official went to pick up Lin Juling's official hat, dusted it off and handed it to him.
Just as Lin Juling was about to put it on his head, a lazy and cold voice came from the door.
"Why are you still wearing an official hat? My head is at risk."
Magistrate Lin was facing the door with his back. When he heard the familiar voice, he immediately yelled: "Ji Xun, you are a piece of shit. If I don't chop off your head, I won't call you Lin. You, are you the Inspector?"
At the entrance of the yamen, a tall figure walked in. He was in his early twenties, with handsome features and handsome features. He was wearing a white mink velvet cloak, and his dark hair was half tied and half hanging down, making his whole person look shining.
He was the Inspector of the Eight Prefectures who was authorized by the emperor to inspect local history and govern people's livelihood. As for the identity of the Inspector of the Eight Prefectures, Magistrate Lin received almost no information.
I only heard that his identity is not simple and he is not a court official.
County Magistrate Lin had never seen such a noble and calm man, but when he recognized the attendant beside him, Zhang Neng, he was so frightened that he fell to his knees on the ground, trembling all over, and could not speak any words.
.
"Your Excellency, the Inspector, came here unexpectedly. He was coming down, down, down, down, down, down, down. The lower official was not far away to greet you."
"There is no need to call yourself a lower official." The Inspector just stood at the door and did not go inside. The sunlight outside the door slanted on him, making him mysterious and noble.
He spoke, his voice still a bit lazy.
"Lin Dongsheng, the magistrate of Wantian County, did not do his job well, which led to the gangsters passing off a large number of female corpses as ostrich meat and selling them everywhere. Such a big case dared to be suppressed privately. Today, the Japanese Inspector General granted the emperor's decree to remove Lin Dongsheng from the post of magistrate of Wantian County and put him on death row.
Just wait and see.'
Magistrate Lin was so frightened that his face was ashen, but he felt that his crime was not worthy of death, so he knelt on the ground and quibbled.
"Your Excellency, if you want to be demoted to an official position, you are just a grassroots. I accept that you will be dismissed because of your incompetence in doing things. But what kind of crime did you commit that warrants you being sentenced to death row?"
"The crime of offending the royal family shall be punished. Zhang Neng will send Lin Dongsheng to death row to await his punishment."
"In addition, I hope Zhang Neng will stay in Wantian County to temporarily manage local affairs and wait for the new county magistrate to take office before returning to Beijing."
After saying this, the Inspector turned around and left the yamen, got into the carriage parked at the yamen gate and left straight away.
Everyone in the county government office broke out in a cold sweat. Did you offend the royal family? Did the Inspector make a mistake? Who is the royal family? Ji Xun? Shen Yue?
Everyone speculated that no one dared to move even after the Inspector left for a long time.
"Why are you still standing there? Send Magistrate Lin to death row." Zhang Neng ordered loudly.
"Yes, Mr. Zhang." The government officials hurriedly dragged County Magistrate Lin down, who was paralyzed with fear.
Zhang Neng turned to look at Hongluan. He didn't recognize Lao Zhao or Lao Qian, but Hongluan was someone close to Ding Xiaolian. How could he not recognize him?
Ding Xiaolian and Zhang Neng were indeed cousins. Because they were cousins, Ding Xiaolian had the opportunity to overhear his conversation with the Inspector, and learned that His Highness the Night King had settled in Shenjia Village under the pseudonym Ji Xun.
"When did your young lady disappear?" Zhang Neng looked at Hongluan and asked, after all, it was his cousin, and his eyes were full of worry.
Hong Luan hurriedly knelt down and was about to recount today's events again when Master Li, who had been watching from the side, hurriedly stepped forward with the file in his hands.
"Master Zhang, please take a look. This is the file on Miss Ding's disappearance."
