Chapter 238 East Governor
Greetings, everyone."
Zhang Feng glanced at the monks from various sects hidden in the distance.
When they saw Zhang Fengwang coming, they were so frightened that they turned around and ran away.
Zhang Feng didn't pay attention to them, but looked at the medicinal materials courtyard inside Wanlin Gate.
There are still many medicinal materials waiting to be picked, and this cannot be wasted.
Within short interest period.
After collecting all the medicinal materials, Zhang Feng roughly counted and found that there were fifteen strains of 'Baiwen Ling Ginseng'!
This one is worth a high-grade spiritual stone.
Although these spiritual herbs are not particularly precious items to me now, they are better than nothing, and they are better than all of them still being here.
Later, they would sweep through the armory and other places. After taking everything they could, Zhang Feng turned around and left.
Step by step, we soon returned to Qiguang County where it was still late at night.
Now, the local people, as well as the master who was studying at night and Zhang Er who was resting, did not know that their master had gone out and destroyed Wanlin Gate.
But in the latter part of the night today.
After the monks left Wanlin Gate, a piece of news spread like the wind.
"When Magistrate Zhang questioned Wanlinmen, he ordered everyone to be executed!"
Such shocking news basically spread throughout Qiguang County and most of Huaihe City in the afternoon of the next day.
It's just that when the nearby sects heard about it, their first reaction was not to be surprised at the county magistrate's strength, nor to be angry with the court, nor to take revenge in the name of revenge.
On the contrary, they just want to distance themselves from the "evil ways that take people's incense" like Wanlin Sect and maintain their own image of "the glory of the right way".
At least on the surface, they are like this.
In this way, their followers will talk endlessly, and their incense will not be disturbed because of the spread of this matter.
After all, the people's incense is one of the foundations of every sect's cultivation.
They don't want to give up.
Including them, they are not as powerful as Wanlin Sect, and they are not as inconvenient to the people as Wanlin Sect.
At the very least, those big sects will be able to eliminate demons within their jurisdiction.
But it was also because this incident spread.
It is impossible to say that they secretly have no dissatisfaction with Zhang Feng.
All because Wanlin Sect is a cultivation sect and belongs to cultivators.
This caused some sects to record Zhang Feng's name, and developed feelings of "unpopularity" and "hatred" towards the county magistrate.
Also today.
On the morning of the third day after Zhang Feng destroyed Wanlin Gate.
Two of the largest sects in Huaihe City signed a joint letter and asked their disciples to send it to the Governor of the East.
Above all, the letter talked about Zhang Feng's various shortcomings, and he wanted to take the opportunity to put pressure on the court to see if the court could hand over Zhang Feng or impose punishment on Zhang Feng.
If you don't pay, you won't return.
Then it's not over.
As long as they had the chance, they wouldn't mind giving Zhang Feng a lesson in person, so that Zhang Feng would remember it for a long time, and at the same time gain some face as a monk.
If the opportunity was better, then it would definitely be better to kill.
Zhang Feng's incident can be regarded as secretly offending all the ascetics.
Similarly, in the city lord's palace in Huaihe City.
When the city lord heard the report from the guard captain and found out that Zhang Feng had actually destroyed a sect, he became furious and smashed the table in front of him with a bang, and spilled the tea on the floor.
"This envelope is simply lawless! Doesn't he know how many cultivation sects this will offend?"
The city lord was so angry that he walked back and forth in the front of the house, "How do you ask me to reply to the other sects? Just this morning, two sect leaders came to me specifically to ask me how to deal with Zhang Feng's matter.
..”
"City Lord, calm down!" The guard captain took two steps forward and saluted again, and then followed the words of the city Lord: "Zhang Feng killed innocent people indiscriminately and disturbed the peace of Qiguang County. He has indeed violated the law."
The captain of the guard looked at the city lord who slowly stopped, "Do you want your subordinates to arrest this person and bring him to justice?"
"Arrest?" The city lord laughed angrily when he heard this, "He can kill the entire Wanlin Sect by himself, how dare you go to arrest him? Be careful that he will punish you first for the crime of 'the following crimes'!
"
"This..." The guard chief thought of this, and after thinking about it, he felt that this was really the case.
Then he looked at the angry City Lord, and then asked in a cautious whisper: "Then... City Lord, we..."
"Waiting for Governor Dong." The city lord took a deep breath, trying to suppress the anger in his heart. "The letter has been sent for three days, and it should be delivered to the boundary of Liufeng City soon. Especially with such things happening in the past two days, I believe Governor Dong will hear about it soon.
.At that time, we will wait for Governor Dong to arrive and see what Governor Dong has to say..."
The city lord said his words and could only wait for Governor Dong to deal with it.
Because offending all the sects in a big city with thousands of miles of territory is no longer something he can suppress.
Even if he is the city lord, he still has to consider whether the imperial court will give up his car to protect the commander and use his official position in exchange for local peace.
After all, it was the lives of more than a thousand people.
Later, the city lord was thinking about how to deal with the matter.
at the same time.
Liu Feng City, the backyard of the City Lord's Mansion.
In the temporary governor's study.
Governor Dong, who looked more than fifty years old, was standing in front of the table, looking at the letters on the table.
Beside Governor Dong, there was also an attendant with a sword.
"My lord..." The attendant stepped forward and bowed, "These two letters were sent to Liu Fengcheng respectively today, saying that they would be handed over to your lord..."
"Yes." Governor Dong nodded slightly, sat back at the table, and looked at the signature on the letter.
One of the letters was sent by the city lord. It was the letter that talked about Zhang Feng's various shortcomings.
The other letter was written by the two sects in Huaihe City. It also talked about Zhang Feng's problem.
Governor Dong looked at it twice, and first opened the letter from the lord of Huaihe City.
At a glance, I roughly finished it.
Governor Dong put down the letter without any expression on his face.
The attendant next to him saw that he might have a good relationship with Governor Dong's superiors, or that Governor Dong treated people well.
So the attendant did not have any fear, and smiled and asked about the letter: "Sir, did the prefect of Huaihe City report in advance to their city in the letter..."
"It's not about merit and people's livelihood." Governor Dong thought for a few moments and handed the letter to the attendant who took it with both hands. "Liangzhi, you have been studying with me for twenty years. Are you twenty-seven years old this year?"
"Yes.." The waiter did not read the letter, but bowed his hands in reply.
Governor Dong nodded and said kindly: "I have been with me for so many years, and I have always been a follower of the book boy. I don't have a formal official position... it's inappropriate..."
When Governor Dong said this, he suddenly laughed, "Zhou Lin doesn't want to let outsiders laugh behind my back... If this spreads, who will be willing to work by my side as an official? Therefore, the post of Qiguang County Magistrate,
Go ahead."
"Sir..." The attendant suddenly felt a little frightened, with a vague feeling of fear that he did not want to leave his 'master' and his 'home'. "Your Excellency, you treat me like a son. I am willing to follow you at all times, doing your best and repaying your kindness."
Your kindness in raising me!"
"Huh..." Governor Dong shook his head and couldn't help but said, "This matter has been decided. I will inform the prefect of Huaihe City and arrange for you to be sent to Qiguang County to serve as the local magistrate. Is it possible for an unscrupulous person to be competent? Manage a county well.
?You should know that this is the best way to repay the imperial court and repay your teacher. You don’t assume that I have cultivated you for many years."
"Sir..." The attendant felt a little bitter, knowing that he could not persuade him, so he said with embarrassment: "If this disciple comes over, Mr. Zhang..."
"After such a thing happened, Lord Zhang has offended many monks in Qiguang County."
Governor Dong stood up and
"At this point, Mr. Zhang can no longer live in Qiguang County. Now we will go to Huaihe City to deal with this matter."
Governor Dong walked back to the table, helped the attendant tidy up his somewhat white collar, and said with a smile: "Now I'd like to trouble Magistrate Liang to tell the prefect of Liu Fengcheng that I'm leaving Liu Fengcheng today, so there's no need for him to make preparations."
Dinner."
The words fell.
Governor Dong didn't even take a serious look at the 'letter from the sect', let alone what was written in it. Instead, he stretched out his hand and the letter floated into the oil lamp in front of the table and burned into ashes in an instant.
Chapter completed!
