Chapter 147 Audacious Dog
Chapter 147 Audacious Dog
Ji Yinghuai sneered.
He spoke rudely at first, and then did not restrain himself after being taught a lesson.
They even went to the inn to take revenge at night. Fortunately, they were not ordinary people. I really don’t know how the officials of this place act.
With a cold face, he took out a jade pendant from his bosom and handed it to Yingmo, saying in a cold voice: "Go, tell the county governor and the government official to come here."
Yingmo looked at Ji Yinghuai's cold face and knew that Ji Yinghuai was really angry at the moment. He responded and hurried out.
Wen Zhang, who was lying on the ground, also heard the conversation between the two. He couldn't stop sweating on his face. He looked up at Ji Yinghuai with a pale face: "Who... who are you?"
The way out was to ask the two high-ranking officials of this place to come over. The pressure and momentum that the other party had just exuded instantly gave him a feeling that the man in front of him was in a high position, commanding the three armies.
His heart skipped a beat, and he felt that he might be in trouble tonight, so he knelt down and begged for mercy. He kept saying that he was wrong and would never do it again, while slapping his face.
"Shut up." Ji Yinghuai interrupted coldly: "If you want to live, shut up and move to the wall, don't block the people who will come in later."
He could already hear the second wave coming up.
The people in the room didn't dare to resist and moved aside, not even daring to cry out in pain.
Ji Yinghuai flicked his sleeves, a gust of wind blew, the oil lamp in the room went out, and it fell into darkness again.
As soon as I put my hand down, I felt someone gently grasping my wrist. I heard the young man's soft and low voice beside me: "We will deal with all these people later. With you here this time, they will definitely suffer and will never dare to bully others again."
Ji Yinghuai's expression eased a little. He asked Jiang Shian to sit down beside the bed and not to come out if he heard any noise.
Jiang Shian nodded. No matter how powerful he was, he didn't have the skills of those two people to knock down a group of people silently.
It was pitch black and he had no ability to see through things.
Ji Yinghuai reached out and touched his head, then walked out.
It was exactly the same noise as the previous one, but Ji Yinghuai was obviously able to resolve it faster than Yingmo. Only the muffled groan of flesh colliding was heard, and without even a scream, Ji Yinghuai threw the person aside.
The rain outside stopped at some point.
It had just rained, so there were few people on the street and occasionally one could hear the night watchman's beat.

At this time, the prefectural government on the other side.
The current prefect of Qingping County is named Chen. He just received some silver from his subordinates yesterday. He was in a good mood and went to the largest brothel in the city in the evening.
He had just returned home and reeked of alcohol. His wife, Fang, carefully helped him sit down in the house.
Fang was just a young lady from an ordinary wealthy family, and marrying Chen Zhizhou was considered marrying up. However, this Mr. Chen was just a small scholar before, and it was all thanks to the help of his wife's family that he was able to become a county magistrate step by step, and now he is the prefect of Qingping County.
It’s a pity that the Fang family’s business has been declining bit by bit, and now it can no longer help Mr. Chen in his career.
However, Lord Chen had long forgotten the kindness he had shown Fang in his early years. He either beat or scolded Fang, and despised the fact that his wife was old and ugly. He spent all his time hanging out in brothels and having fun with his concubines.
Once you become a wife, you have no control over your fate. Your husband is your heaven. Even if Fang is unwilling, there is nothing she can do.
The smell of cheap perfumed powder filled her nose. Fang tried to slow down her voice and spoke softly, "Master, it's getting late. I'll help you go back to your room and rest."
"Get lost, you shrew? Let Luqin accompany me, don't touch me, you ugly woman, get away from me. What's the use of a hen that doesn't lay eggs?"
When he heard the voice belonged to that woman in his family who only had a bitter face and didn't know how to be gentle and considerate, Prefect Chen frowned in disgust and pushed the person next to him hard.
Even if he was drunk, he was still a man. Fang didn't react at all and was pushed and staggered to the ground.
But Lord Chen still felt it was not enough and was about to kick Fang.
At this moment, a panicked voice of a guard suddenly came from outside the door: "Sir, there is someone outside asking to see you."
Prefect Chen looked at the visitor impatiently and said, "Let him go. It's already this late and he's still asking for an audience. We can talk about it tomorrow if we have anything to say!"
"But, but." The man trembled as he took out the badge that the man at the door had handed to him. "He told me to give this to the lord, and said that I should give him one stick of incense. If I don't see him again within that time, you will no longer be an official."
Prefect Chen retracted his foot and walked towards the guards. Who could be so arrogant?
He took the token and looked down. There were nine dragons engraved on the golden token with the word "war" in the middle.
"Fight, fight the Northern King..."
Prefect Chen's hands began to tremble. He pulled at his clothes. There was no time to go back to his room to change into his official robes. He was afraid that if he was too late, the enemy would kill him without asking for his permission, so he walked quickly to the door.
"How come the person who came has a badge of Prince Zhanbei's palace? Didn't they say that person was dead? Did you see clearly who the person is?" Lord Chen broke out in a cold sweat. He was just a small prefect, and there was also a county governor above him. Why would they suddenly come to find him?
The guard tried hard to recall. The man at the door was dressed in black and had his back to the lantern. He did not see his face clearly, but the knife on his waist looked no ordinary item. He spoke to him with great authority, which was not possessed by guards from such small places.
The guard didn't know how to describe it, so he could only vaguely say, "It looks like he has an unusual aura."
Prefect Chen became even more panicked.
When he saw Yingmo standing at the door, Prefect Chen knelt down without asking for his identity and said, "I am the Prefect of Qingping County. I am here to see you, Your Excellency. I wonder what is the important matter that brings you here so late at night?"
Yingmo frowned. From the investigation in the afternoon, it seemed that this Prefect Chen was a piece of shit.
Now that we are closer, I can see that the officials have no integrity at all, and the smell of alcohol and cosmetics is strong.
Yingmo took a step back in disgust, "Your Excellency the Prefect, this nightlife is pretty good."
Without waiting for Prefect Chen to answer, Yingmo said directly: "My master wants to see you, Master Chen, please come with me!"
Prefect Chen nodded repeatedly, stood up and followed Yingmo.
The prefectural government and the county magistrate's mansion were separated by several streets. Yingmo walked quickly towards the county magistrate's mansion without caring whether the people behind him could keep up.
Prefect Chen was wiping the cold sweat from his forehead as he walked. He was almost out of breath and felt a little uneasy. He didn't know what kind of big thing had happened that required him and the county magistrate to be present at the same time.
This county magistrate seemed much more reliable than Prefect Chen. As soon as the guard went in to report, he came out shortly after. He was wearing an official robe that did not look like something he had changed into temporarily.
Ying Mo said the same thing as before, and then took the two of them to the inn.
