It is conceivable that if Yonghui City is in such a bad state, Yonghui County Government will not be much better.
Sure enough, there are just a few shabby brick houses here, and their scale is not even comparable to the county government in Xinye County.
In order to attract the attention of the county government, Xu Zun had already sent his bodyguard Dai Long to inform him. At this moment, a young official wearing a green official uniform was waiting at the gate of the county government with his servants.
This young official is called Tian Murong, and he is the county magistrate of Yonghui County.
Since Tao Lang, the county governor, was injured by an evil spirit and was seriously injured, Tian Murong was left to handle all major and minor matters in the county government.
This Tianjun Cheng is twenty-six years old, with a fair complexion and looks like a young boy.
Seeing Xu Zun and others arriving, he hurriedly stepped forward to salute them.
"I am under the command of Cheng Tian Murong of Yonghui County. I didn't know that Master Ti Xing was coming. I was not able to greet you at a distance. I hope you can beg for forgiveness!"
"Please get up, please get up," Xu Zun helped him up and said, "Xu learned that Commander Tao was injured. Thank you for your hard work, Commander Tian!"
"It's not hard, it's not hard, sir... um... what are you doing..." Tian Junchen pointed to the bound man in purple behind and asked, "What's going on?"
"This guy killed someone in public. He really had no law. I happened to bump into him and captured him. You guys can try and investigate!"
Saying that, Xu Zun asked Hou Zhen to push the man in purple to the government officials. The officials were so frightened that they retreated and avoided. They were very frightened.
"Sir, this..." Tian Murong was obviously embarrassed, but he didn't know how to say it, so he simply pointed at the county government office and said, "You have come a long way and have worked hard all the way. Come to the county government office and rest soon!"
In this way, Xu Zun followed Tian Murong into the county government office, and came to the lobby to seat the guests and hosts.
"Master Xu," Tian Murong said impatiently as soon as he sat down, "I have sent a letter to the governor about what happened in Yonghui. I can't believe that I sent you here so soon!
"Sir, Yonghui is located in a remote area, and the county government is incompetent. We can't make the decision on many things!" Tian Murong complained with a sad look on his face, "Now, the county governor is in an unexpected situation again, and we are really unbearable."
It's a heavy burden. If there is any negligence or carelessness, I hope you will forgive me..."
He was so aggrieved that Tian Murong even shed tears.
"I wonder how injured Mr. Tao is?" Xu Zun asked, "Can I visit you?"
"Oh, he is still recuperating in the county government office. His life has been saved, but..." Tian Murong said, "The master's face was bitten by a ghost and was seriously damaged. His mind is also very unstable. He is in a trance state most of the day.
, I'm afraid... I still need to take a good rest..."
"Oh... okay," Xu Zun said, "In that case, I won't bother you anymore. You'd better tell me the situation first!"
After hearing the questioning, Tian Murong immediately recounted the incident to Xu Zun and others, and there was no discrepancy with what Hou Zhen and others reported.
"Then..." After listening, Xu Zun asked, "Who is the storekeeper Yan of this big warehouse? How can he occupy a place in this powerful Yonghui?"
"Yan Sen is from Songzhou," Tian Murong introduced. "He adopted some outsiders. At first, he just sold goods from outside. Later, when he became successful, he built a large warehouse and became a big shopkeeper!"
"How is this person?" Xu Zun asked again.
"Quite shrewd," Tian Murong replied, "He is very good at doing business. The reason why he did not conflict with other gangs is because he gave them a lot of profits and dividends."
"Hmm..." Xu Zun thought for a while and then asked, "Were you with Mr. Tao that day?"
"No..." Tian Murong replied, "My humble duty... um... I had something to do that day, so I didn't follow Mr. Tao to the dock."
Xu Zun had been carefully observing the county magistrate, and judging from his reaction, he knew that he was definitely not telling the truth.
"Okay!" Xu Zun stood up and said, "You should immediately find the witnesses at the time, and then go with me to inspect the scene!"
"Oh... yes... but..." Tian Murong suddenly knelt down in front of Xu Zun and said, "Master Xu, if you want to handle the case, I dare not stop you because of my humble position, but... I hope you will be merciful. I am just a little county magistrate.
When it comes to the Zishan sect killing people, I really can’t make the decision!"
"What!?" Xu Zun thought for a while and cursed, "You bastard! You are the county magistrate, and I, the seventh-rank official of Daxuan, kill people in public under your jurisdiction. Shouldn't you be the one to judge me?"
"Sir...Sir..." Tian Murong knelt down tremblingly and said, "I have told you, I was bought as an official.
"I...I still want to live! You don't know, if I offend this Zishan sect, I...I will die!"
"oh?"
Xu Zun realized that the matter was beyond his imagination. He really didn't expect that there were places in Daxuan that the government could not control.
Not only is it impossible to control, but it is also deeply fearful.
"A small sect of the Zishan Sect," Xu Zun said, "does it dare to kill my imperial official?"
"Sir," Tian Murong kowtowed to Xu Zun and said only four words, "It's commonplace!"
Just four words, but it reveals the endless dangers here!
"So outrageous!!?" Xu Zun frowned, and Zhao Yu and others couldn't believe their eyes.
No one would have thought that a martial arts sect would dare to control the government's power of life and death. No wonder they dared to kill people in the street!
"Sir..." Tian Murong said with a tearful voice, "Actually, I, the county magistrate, bought it from them. Tell me, how can I interrogate this person...?"
"What?" Zhao Yu couldn't help but interrupt, "Can I still buy an official position? That's a martial arts sect!"
call……
Xu Zun was sitting on the Grand Master's chair. Before, he only knew that the people of Yonghui were tough, but he didn't expect them to be so tough!
However, Xu Zun's calculation power is amazing, and he thinks about more than just what's in front of him.
The Queen Mother asked her to come to Yonghui by name. Could it be that... besides letting herself solve the case, does it have a deeper meaning?
Is it true that the Queen Mother already knew the situation here? Then why didn't she send an army to wipe out these forces that interfered with the imperial court?
Depend on……
Is it possible that behind these forces, there is a queen mother who doesn't want to face the things she offends?
"Sir..." At this time, the Asiuzi came to report, "It has been clearly investigated. The man in purple who killed the person is named Gao Cheng, and the person he killed was from the warehouse.
"The reason why I killed him was to seize the territory of Big Warehouse. Now that Yan Sen is dead, almost all the territory of Big Warehouse has been divided up between two gangs!"
Damn...
Xu Zun cursed in his heart, this is like Young and Dangerous, are they all so lawless?
"Master Xu," Tian Murong said, "This Gao Cheng is the new generation senior brother of the Zishan Sect, and he is highly regarded by the elders. If we catch him, I'm afraid...our county government will soon be surrounded!"
"Your Majesty, you are such a bear. Isn't that a rebellion?" Zhao Yu cursed angrily, "How unreasonable is this? How dare you besiege the county government?"
"Yeah..." Huo Anu whispered, "I've already experienced it once, do I have to go through it a second time..."
"Okay, I know what to do!" Xu Zun stood up and said confidently, "Since the facts of the crime are sufficient, then the national law does not allow killing to pay for life..."
As he spoke, he made a gesture of wiping his neck towards Zhao Yu: "Let's do the Dharma for this highly accomplished person! By the way, we will sacrifice the flag!"
What!!?
Upon hearing this, the government officials headed by Tian Murong immediately collapsed to the ground...
