A group of people entered the city, but most of them stayed at the city gate. In the end, only a carriage and Liu Tong, who was escorting him on horseback, slowly drove towards the city.
In the carriage, the girl sat next to the woman, while Chen Chao sat weakly opposite the mother and daughter.
As for the officials of Jiang'an County, they were all following the carriage on foot and remained silent.
The woman thought for a while, then slowly said: "I'm afraid your official position is not low, right?"
She didn't think of Chen Chao as a big deal before, but after seeing the county guard's attitude towards Chen Chao, she later realized that the young man in front of her probably really didn't rely on his family to become such a playboy.
He is a disciple, but actually has an official position, and he doesn't seem to be just a guy with an official position in vain.
The woman could see this from the sincere admiration in the governor's eyes.
Chen Chao looked at the woman in front of him, and now he didn't hide it. He said straight to the point: "It's not too low. If there is a court meeting, I will stand at the front of the military attache line."
The woman was startled. She originally thought that the young man in front of her had a high official position, but she did not expect that his official position was so high.
The girl had a confused look on her face. She was not very experienced in the world, and it was impossible for her to understand these vague words.
"It turns out to be the guardian envoy."
The woman sighed with emotion, then lowered her head and said, "I have met the guardian envoy."
Although she was a prostitute, she was not blind to what was going on outside the window. She had also heard about the major events of the Liang Dynasty. Based on Chen Chao's words, it was naturally easy to guess his identity.
Chen Chao said softly: "Madam, you're welcome."
The woman immediately looked worried
Worry, "I didn't know your identity before, so I was very negligent. Please don't blame me."
"Mom, what are you talking about?!"
The belated girl's eyes widened and she realized that the young man in front of her was the Lord Guardian she had mentioned before.
Chen Chao looked at the girl and said with a smile: "I said that guy is not as good-looking as me, and that's not a lie."
The girl blushed terribly. Thinking about what she had said before, she quickly lowered her head, but then quickly raised her head, unable to help but peek at the pale young man in front of her.
"I never expected that I am so lucky to be able to wait for you to make the decision for me!"
The woman spoke softly, her eyes turning red again.
Chen Chao looked at her and said with some guilt: "This kind of thing shouldn't have happened. It's Mrs. Liang who is guilty."
The woman shook her head. Before, she was worried that she would not be able to avenge her husband this time, and would also involve the young people in front of her. But now that she knew the truth, she only felt happy.
"The Guardian Commander said before that he wanted to kill Su Tong at this moment. Isn't he afraid of conflicting with Daliang Lu? Your Excellency is in a high position, and these things depend on your temper. I'm afraid it will have an impact on you..."
The woman was no ordinary woman, and she soon started to worry about Chen Chao.
"The county guard also said this, but I insisted on it, firstly to prevent my wife from feeling cold, and secondly because I wanted to tell other officials in the court that I can't tolerate the slightest bit of sand in my eyes, so let them early
Stop these thoughts."
"My wife's husband died for the country. If my wife is still oppressed by the court in this way in the world, then my husband will not be at peace in the underground, or even
I will regret why I sacrificed my life for such a royal court."
Chen Chao let out a breath and said, "It's fine if there are only two of these things, but if there are too many, even I will feel unworthy of them. I do this just for the sake of peace of mind for the people who have died.
The living are no longer sad.”
…
…
In front of the general's palace, Su Tong was tied up and tied to the street, but he had the guts to not kneel down. Wang Zhen looked at this scene and just said indifferently: "Break his legs."
Su Tong stared at Wang Zhen in front of him fiercely, "Wang Zhen, you really dare to do this, aren't you afraid of the general's questioning?!"
"What are you talking about, general? If the general knew that he had a scum like you under his command, I'm afraid he wouldn't have left the city of God to become a general."
Wang Zhen said this intentionally or unintentionally, but anyone who is interested can hear what he means. The general originally retired from the position of guardian envoy. Do you really want to say that it is you who are close to the general or us?
Is this official from the guard's lineage close to the general?
But before Su Tong could say anything, there was a sound of footsteps on the street, and countless armored soldiers came from all directions.
Seeing this scene, Su Tong laughed wildly and said: "Wang Zhen, how can you kill this general?!"
In this Jiang'an County, it is true that your king is really a garrison, but I, Su Tong, have soldiers under my command. Is it really that easy for you to kill this general in front of these soldiers?
The young lieutenant who led countless soldiers here shouted loudly: "Wang Zhen, what are you doing? Let go of General Su!"
Wang Zhen turned a deaf ear and just said calmly: "What did I say just now?"
The two officials guarding the Yamen beside him nodded.
, they had never thought of being afraid, but when their immediate superior spoke again, they did not hesitate and broke Su Tong's legs with a long sheathed knife.
At this time, Su Tong could only kneel down weakly.
The young lieutenant looked at this scene and felt even more incredible. His face was ugly, his eyes widened, and with a wave of his hand, the crossbowmen behind him filed out. They raised their strong bows and aimed at the guards including Wang Zhen.
of officials.
"Set arrows for me and shoot these idiots here!"
Su Tong was in pain, but he still gritted his teeth and roared.
Wang Zhen looked at the young deputy general over there with an expressionless expression, and said calmly: "Vice General Zhang, do you really want to shoot this guard here?"
"Ambassador Wang Zhen, you must give me an explanation. I am puzzled by how you tied General Su here for no reason!"
The young lieutenant gritted his teeth and spoke. Looking at Wang Zhen's appearance, he probably knew that the other party was confident, but he couldn't figure out how someone from the Guard's lineage could do anything to someone in their army.
"I have instructions from above, Deputy General Zhang had better put away his crossbow."
Wang Zhen was extremely dull.
The young deputy general frowned and said, "Even the governor of the state capital, I'm afraid he doesn't have this right!"
"This official's writing comes from the capital of God."
Wang Zhen squinted at the young deputy general, "Vice General Zhang wants to see for himself?"
"City of Gods?"
The young lieutenant general was startled and didn't understand.
But just as he was deep in thought, there was already the sound of horse hooves behind him.
The carriage stopped behind the soldiers and could not move forward.
Huang Shi, who already had beads of sweat on his head, quickly came to the front, frowned and said: "What are you doing in the way?"
Well, get out of the way!"
The young lieutenant turned to look at the governor of Jiang'an County and said, "Guardian Huang, you also saw that this Wang Zhen envoy..."
Before he finished speaking, Huang Shi said angrily: "Vice General Zhang, if you don't let your people get out of the way, there are people in the carriage behind me that you can't afford to offend."
The young lieutenant's face was ugly, and he did not expect that the county guard, who had always been polite to him, would be so tough at the moment.
Just when he was about to speak, a soft voice came from the carriage, "If you don't get out of the way, you will be killed."
This sentence shocked the young lieutenant. He was not a fool. As an official of the imperial court, he would kill the other party if told to kill him. Otherwise, he was stupid enough to tell nonsense, or else he was really confident.
At this point, he was more willing to believe the latter.
He waved his hand reluctantly, wanting to know who was in the carriage.
The next moment, in his sight, a pale young man walked out of the carriage, followed by a mother and daughter.
The young man with the sword hanging from his waist walked slowly towards this side. He ignored the young deputy general and looked at the kneeling Su Tong in front of him, but his face was still full of unwillingness.
"Then Captain Li, is he your subordinate?"
Chen Chao spoke slowly.
Su Tong stared fiercely at the young man in front of him and said angrily: "Who do you think you are?"
Chen Chao ignored him and just glanced at Wang Zhen.
Wang Zhen understood, and directly hit Su Tong with the handle of the knife. The latter's teeth were directly smashed into pieces, and now his mouth was full of blood.
When the young lieutenant saw this scene, he did not dare to speak.
What the hell is this?
Chen Chao looked at what was in front of him
Su Tong is very calm.
He didn't speak.
He was waiting for Su Tong in front of him to answer his question.
"So what?!"
After thinking for a while, Su Tong finally spoke.
"Then what did you send him to do?"
Chen Chao stared at Su Tong in front of him, his eyes indifferent.
Su Tong noticed the mother and daughter not far away, thought for a moment, and said coldly: "That man escaped from the military camp a few days ago and is missing. This general is looking for him."
Chen Chao said oh and glanced at Wang Zhen.
Wang Zhen understood and stepped directly on Su Tong's palm. With a crisp sound, he crushed one of Su Tong's palms.
Chen Chao no longer looked at Su Tong, but at the young lieutenant.
"I have a question for you."
The young deputy general was so shocked by the scene in front of him that he was speechless. Now he looked at the young man in front of him who was not much different from himself in speaking. He lowered his head and said: "Excuse me, sir."
"Then what does Captain Li do?"
Chen Chao looked at the young lieutenant in front of him and said calmly: "Let's think about it before we decide."
The young lieutenant's forehead was covered with sweat. After a moment of silence, he still didn't dare to tell a lie, "Then Captain Li was sent by Su Tong to go out with the Yan family to seize the Gu family's property..."
Chen Chao turned his head, glanced at Su Tong, and said no more.
Su Tong said angrily: "Zhang Yang, what are you talking about?!"
"Governor Huang, take people to search his mansion, find out his crimes, and post them to inform the people in the city. Wang Zhen, take off his head and hang it on the city gate for three days to show to the public."
After Chen Chao said this, he stopped talking.
"who are you?!"
Su Tong never thought that the young man in front of him would kill him in just a few words.
Wang Zhen
But he didn't talk nonsense to Su Tong. Since the Lord Guard didn't say anything, he wouldn't waste any time. He took out the sheath of his sword and cut off Su Tong's head.
The girl hid behind her mother and did not dare to look at the bloody scene.
The woman looked at this scene and trembled all over.
Lifting his head, Wang Zhen knelt down on one knee and said, "I am the governor of Jiang'an County and pay my respects to the governor!"
As Wang Zhen knelt down, all the officials guarding the Yamen knelt down on one knee.
The young lieutenant was startled, but no longer daring to hesitate, he also knelt down.
As he knelt down.
With a crash, all the countless soldiers knelt down.
At this moment, there was only the young man in black shirt, standing among a group of people, as if he stood out from the crowd.
