As soon as Xia Pingan opened his eyes, he found himself walking on a bustling street. The street was crowded with people and busy with traffic. The buildings on the street had cornices and brackets. Listening to the people talking on the street, their words had a strong

The thick Henan accent makes you feel friendly.

In addition, he was accompanied by two government servants wearing soap clothes and hanging swords. The passers-by on the surrounding streets looked at him with a sense of awe.

Is this Luoyang during the reign of Emperor Guangwu?

Xia Pingan looked at the buildings and customs on the street, and an idea came to his mind.

Yes, the world bead he is integrating now is the world bead of the "Vajra Neck". His current identity is Dong Xuan. Dong Xuan at this moment is the Luoyang Order, which is the local governor of Luoyang.

You can tell by looking at the buildings on both sides of the street. The city is full of various government offices, Taicang, arsenals, markets, and the residences of dignitaries. In Luoyang, there are many wealthy businessmen, emperors, relatives, and many of them have hands and eyes that can reach the sky.

, it is not that easy to do this Luoyang order well.

Just as Xia Ping'an was looking at the scenery on the street, at the corner of the street in front, a young man wearing government uniforms ran towards him, panting and flushed.

As soon as the yamen officer turned the corner, he saw Xia Pingan who was patrolling the street. Then he rushed towards Xia Pingan without thinking. He didn't even have time to take a break, so he hurriedly reported.

"Lord Qi... no... it's not good... there is someone killing someone on the street in Chongwenfang ahead!"

Xia Pingxin said happily, here it comes!

"How brave, someone actually dares to kill people in the street, take me over and have a look..."

"yes!"

The yamen officer turned around, trotted, and led Xia Pingan towards Chongwenfang.

During the Eastern Han Dynasty, Luoyang City already had a prosperous atmosphere. "The city is six miles and eleven steps east and west, and nine miles and one hundred steps north and south." The entire city's urban area has been about ten square kilometers, and it is divided into twelve city gates.

There are towering double gates on both sides of each city gate, which can be seen even in the city, and the city area is divided into a number of rectangular or square lanes.

Under the leadership of the yamen servant, Xia Ping'an walked as fast as flying and spread his legs. In less than a few minutes, he arrived at Chongwenfang where the incident occurred.

A group of people gathered around the street, all watching the excitement, but because people were dead, they did not dare to come over. They just watched from a distance, and everyone was talking about it. Some people had a look of fear on their faces, many of them

The people passing by didn't even dare to look, and walked quickly by with their eyes covered.

A man carrying a load was lying on the street, with blood flowing all over the ground. Some dried fruits carried in the load were also scattered all over the ground.

Two government officials stood nearby to maintain order. Seeing Xia Pingan and his people striding over, they breathed a sigh of relief.

When Xia Pingan came here, he squatted down next to the man who fell on the ground and took a look. The man who fell on the ground was in his 30s. He looked like a salesman selling preserved fruits. His face was full of the vicissitudes of life. He had lost a lot of blood.

, his face and lips have turned a little white. There are two fatal wounds on the man's body, one on his neck and one on the right side of his chest. Judging from the wounds, he should have been killed by a sharp instrument such as a sword.

"What's going on here? Who is this person and why was he killed?" Xia Ping'an stood up and asked the two government officials guarding here.

"Sir, this person's name is Li Xiaoman. He is a citizen of Chongwenfang and sells preserved fruits for a living. According to the people around him, just now Li Man was carrying a load on the street, and there was a man whipping his horse and riding fast on the street.

Li Xiaoman overturned Li Xiaoman's burden, but Li Xiaoman refused to obey, so he pulled the man's horse. Unexpectedly, the man was extremely arrogant and hit him when he got off the horse. The two struggled for a while, and the man pulled out the knife from his waist and killed Li Xiaoman.

Killed him, and then ran away on horseback. A few of us patrolled here just now. When we saw people watching and gathering here, we hurried over..."

"You actually dare to kill people in the city in broad daylight. Who is the murderer?" Xia Pingan said angrily.

"According to the neighbors, the person who killed the person was Princess Huyang's old man. After the person killed someone, someone saw him running to the princess's house..." The officer who spoke mentioned Princess Huyang, his voice...

They all lowered their heads unconsciously, looked at Xia Pingan with some anxiety, and carefully looked at Xia Pingan's face.

Princess Huyang, everyone in Luoyang knows that she is your majesty’s biological sister. She lived with your majesty before you ascended the throne. When you meet her, your majesty will be in awe of this person. This person beside Princess Huyang

If someone kills someone, who dares to catch him?

Xia Ping'an knew that the Cangtou mentioned by the yamen officer was equivalent to a servant or follower in the Han Dynasty. He could ride a horse and carry a sword in the city. He was a favored person around Princess Huyang, not an ordinary servant.

"Call the neighbors who saw the murder and I'll ask them personally!"

"yes!"

Several government officials called over the neighbors who had witnessed the incident. Xia Pingan personally inquired about it and found out what happened and the identity and appearance of the murderer. The murderer was the Cangtou next to Princess Huyang.

Asking a government official to notify the family of the murdered man to collect the body, Xia Pingan turned around and took the people back to the government office without saying a word.

Xia Ping'an, who returned to the government office, signed the arrest document according to the procedures and asked the team leader of the government office to take people to Princess Huyang's house to arrest the murderer, while he sat in the government office and waited.

A few hours later, the arrest squad leader and a few depressed and disgraced people from the government office came back. Naturally, the murderer was not brought with him.

"Sir, when we arrived at Princess Huyang's residence, we knocked on the door and explained our intention. The doorman of Princess Huyang's residence chased us away, cursed us, and threw out the arrest document signed by your Excellency.

They won't let us into the government at all!" The head of the government office lowered his head and said with a look of shame on his face.

"Okay, I understand, thank you all!"

"My subordinates are incompetent!"

This incident was expected, and Xia Ping'an was not in a hurry. Instead, he comforted the several government officials who were on the mission, and then said generously, "It is only natural to kill people to pay for their lives. As the order of Luoyang, I must uphold justice for the people of Luoyang.

No matter who the person is around Princess Huyang, I must kill that person. That person cannot hide in Princess Huyang’s house all his life. Princess Huyang likes to go on tours. Every time Princess Huyang goes on tour, she always leaves the house.

Take Cangtou with you. I estimate that in a few days, Princess Huyang will definitely go out for a parade. From now on, you will send people to keep an eye on Princess Huyang's mansion. As long as Princess Huyang goes on a tour, take that person out.

Princess Mansion, please come and notify me immediately!"

The team leaders in this government office are all local gangsters in Luoyang. They don't have the ability and courage to break into the princess's mansion, but it is not difficult for them to keep an eye on every move in the princess's mansion.

Several government servants were very angry at the princess's house. They were already angry. When they saw that Xia Pingan was going to severely punish the murderer in the Huyang Princess's house, they all bowed to accept the order and patted their chests in front of Xia Pingan and promised that as long as

If that person dares to leave the princess's mansion, "Master Dong" will definitely know about it.

Xia Ping'an was waiting in the government office, taking the time to sharpen the Han sword he wore so that it could be used to identify people.

Seeing Xia Ping'an sharpening his sword, the government servants became even more motivated.

This wait is five days.

On the morning of the fifth day, a government official rushed to the government office to report that Princess Huyang was going on a trip today, bringing with her a large number of entourages. The Cangtou who had killed people a few days ago also followed Princess Huyang out of the princess's mansion again.

"Commanders and yamen officers, follow me to hunt down the murderer!" Xia Ping'an shouted in the court hall, put the sharpened Han sword on his waist, took the lead, and strode out of the yamen office.

Seeing that the chief was so awesome, none of the government officials at the government office flinched. They all shouted, armed with sticks and swords, and more than ten people followed Xia Ping'an out of the house in a majestic manner.

…

Half an hour later, on the streets of Luoyang City, Xia Pingan stopped the carriage and horses of Princess Huyang and her party.

Seeing Princess Huyang's carriage approaching, Xia Ping'an blocked the carriage, took out the Han sword in his hand, and drew a line on the street in front of him. The tip of the sword rubbed against the stone slab on the ground, bringing out

With a flash of sparks, Xia Ping'an shouted, "Luoyang ordered the arrest of the murderer. Anyone who dares to cross this line and rush into the government office will be an accomplice of the murderer and will be killed without mercy!"

Xia Pingan's killing sound was truly murderous.

Seeing Luoyang Ling staring at him coldly with a sword, and a large group of government servants standing in front, the driver who was driving the carriage for Princess Huyang broke into a cold sweat and quickly stopped the carriage.

"Dong Xuan, you are so brave, you dare to stop my carriage..." The curtain of the carriage opened, revealing the face of a jeweled and domineering woman. Princess Huyang glared at Xia Pingan, "You

What do you want to do, do you want to rebel?"

Xia Ping'an glanced at the men riding horses behind Princess Huyang, and sure enough, she saw a man's expression change. The man's appearance was exactly the same as the perpetrator described by the witnesses before. Judging from his expression,

Judging by his appearance, that person is the murderer.

"Princess Huyang, as a relative of the emperor, you don't know how to uphold the laws of the Han Dynasty. Instead, you cover up the Cangtou in your house to commit murder, harm the people, and trample on the laws of the country. I, Dong Xuan, will let you know today what the laws of the Han Dynasty are!"

Xia Pingan spoke righteously and loudly, full of righteousness. Princess Huyang changed her face when Xia Pingan said that and was choked. Xia Pingan pointed the Han sword in his hand at the princess sitting on the horse.

, shouted sternly, "You, get off your horse..."

The murderous Cangtou had a guilty conscience. Hearing Xia Pingan's shouts, murderous intent rushed towards his face. The horse on his crotch was startled and stepped back. The man was frightened and fell off the horse. Xia Pingan sprinted forward.

In the past, before the man could get up, he cut off the man's head with a sword and killed him in the street.

"Ah..." Everyone around was shocked.

Seeing Xia Pingan kill her Cangtou in the street, Princess Huyang turned pale with fright, screamed, and hid in the car.

"Dong Xuan...you...you wait...I am not done with you..." Princess Huyang shouted hysterically in the car, turned the carriage and horses around, and walked away from the other side.

"Go and report to Li Xiaoman's family. The perpetrator who killed Li Xiaoman has been killed by my officer. He has paid for his life. The case is closed!"

"Yes!" The yamen officer looked at Xia Pingan with admiration, and then went to report the news to the family of the sufferer.

Not long after Xia Pingan returned to the government office, Li Xiaoman's family members - parents, wife, and two children - helped the old and young. With tears streaming down their faces, they came to the government office in person to kowtow to Xia Pingan and thank him.

As soon as Li Xiaoman's family left, a eunuch came to the government office with an imperial edict. His Majesty ordered Dong Xuan from Luoyang to come to the palace to have an audience.

Xia Pingan straightened his clothes and followed the eunuch to the palace.

…

In the palace garden, Princess Huyang was sobbing in front of a man wearing royal robes.

"...Uncle Wen, you hadn't become emperor back then, our family was in decline, and I was the only one taking care of my mother. I had to worry about everything at home and outside. I had suffered all kinds of hardships, and yet I couldn't do anything for a day.

You are so scared. Originally, I thought I could live a good life for a few days after you became the emperor. But now that you have become the emperor, I am being bullied in the street. As a princess, I don’t deserve it, wuwuwu..."

Liu Xiu looked at her sister helplessly and could only say, "Don't worry, eldest sister, I have sent someone to ask Dong Xuan to come see me. I will vent your anger on you today!"

…

In a pavilion in a garden of the palace, Xia Pingan saw Emperor Guangwu Liu Xiu, and Princess Huyang who was wiping tears and staring at him fiercely next to Liu Xiu.

Emperor Guangwu Liu Xiu had a handsome face and bright and sharp eyes. Seeing Xia Pingan's arrival, Liu Xiu's face suddenly darkened, "Dong Xuan, you are so brave, you dare to collide with Princess Huyang's carriage. Someone is here."
