"Ouch! Oh my god! How could I have forgotten this!" After hearing this, Yan Siren immediately regretted it and wished he could grab the ground with his head. He decisively turned his mount around and ran away before anyone noticed him.
"Who, which Han Tixing?"
"Who else is there? The one who should have taken office half a year ago. It is said that he is even younger than his age!"
"Hey, Yan Siren is blind. He actually went to trouble the executioner!"
"I guess he wanted to bully Han Tixing because he was young and a foreigner!"
"Haha, the guy surnamed Yan was kicked on the iron plate this time. I'll see how he ends up..."
Looking around, after hearing Wang De's shouting, more than one onlooker immediately guessed the identity of the person in the carriage. Everyone immediately gloated and whispered among themselves.
The fact that Han Qing joined forces with Li Dezhao and Ye Qinglian in Xiazhou to kill Xia King Li Deming has not yet spread on Jingdong East Road. However, the news that Han Qing assisted Li Jihe to wipe out the Red Lotus Sect on Yongxing Military Road
, but it is no longer news in Qingzhou.
As early as half a year ago, Han Qing was promoted by the imperial court to serve as a criminal official and a judge of the Crane Control Bureau on Jingdong East Road. His appointment has long been known to everyone in the officialdom of Jingdong East Road.
Because he has not taken office, many wealthy and idle people on Jingdong East Road are secretly guessing that he may not come to "receive the seal" at all, and will be entrusted with other important tasks by the court. However, they never expected that he
He actually made an appearance in this way before the end of the year!
However, to the great disappointment of many onlookers, Han Qing showed no interest in dealing with Yan Mansion's housekeeper on the spot. He only exchanged a few words with Wang De through the car door, and then ordered his soldiers to drive the carriage and go straight into Qingzhou City.
The servants of the Yan Mansion who were originally making noises, seeing that the situation was not good, immediately followed Yan Siren's example, and in the blink of an eye, they were all gone.
There was not much excitement to see at the gate of the city, and most of the people who were joining in the fun went back to their homes. However, there were also some who were unwilling to do so, or had a special purpose, and quietly followed the convoy.
Let me remind you that the Department of Prisons has just become independent from the Department of Transportation, and the Office of Crane Control has just been established by the imperial court. The emergence of these two new departments will definitely bring some changes to the officialdom of Jingdong East Road, and even impact the original division of power among the upper echelons.
Therefore, any first-hand information about Han Qing, including his appearance, age and food and travel hobbies, are valuable to collect.
Especially for the backbone of Chunyang Cult on Jingdong East Road, if they figure out Han Qing early, they will be more confident in dealing with him.
The Chunyang Sect clearly knew at whose hands the Red Lotus Sect on the Yongxing Military Road suffered heavy losses. From top to bottom, no one in the Chunyang Sect dared to take Han Qing lightly anymore.
"Brother Wu, go to Guanyi first. Then you immediately send someone to find Dou Sha and ask him to come and join me!" Han Qing, who was sitting in the carriage, had no time to care about the prying eyes around him. He frowned and whispered.
.
"Yes!" Wu Er agreed and immediately assigned tasks to the brothers around him.
The brothers who received the mission took the order and left. The other brothers put their hands on their weapons vigilantly and looked around. They were no more relaxed than when they disguised themselves as traders and sneaked into Xiazhou last month.
Han Qing frowned again and quietly moved his body forward to block the sleepy Dou Rong and Xu Ziling.
Uncomfortable. At this moment, he felt very uncomfortable.
What made him feel this way was not due to the provocation of Yan Mansion's housekeeper, nor was it due to the scheming of Wang De, the governor of the capital.
After experiencing the turmoil of the Yongxing Military Road, Han Qing no longer dared to overestimate the integrity of the local gentry of the Song Dynasty and the conduct of the officials of the Song Dynasty.
It is rare for a place like Yan Mansion to be powerful and do not use its power to bully others.
Seizing people's land, wives and daughters was a common occurrence for the powerful. Not only on Jingdong East Road, but also in other states and counties in the Song Dynasty, it was commonplace.
And the reason why Yan Mansion dares to send servants to do evil in broad daylight is because there are no local officials to protect them.
Wang De, the sixth-grade governor (chief arrester), is just a relatively minor character among the many officials who colluded with the Yan Mansion. He is not worthy of Han Qing's attention at all.
The reason why Han Qing felt uncomfortable was the environment outside the carriage at this moment.
It's almost the end of the year, and it's late afternoon (around three o'clock). Logically speaking, in a big city like Qingzhou, the streets should be very lively.
Although the people are afraid of the government and will not block his carriage at any time, at least the streets should be bustling with people at this moment. Instead of being almost silent like now.
Through the car window inlaid with clear tiles, Han Qing could clearly see that most of the shops facing the street on both sides of the street were closed and locked. The one or two that were still open occasionally were empty.
Except for the entrance of the alley near the street, where there were many beggars shivering, there were not many living people to be found on the entire street. Although the sunlight shining down in the air was bright, it seemed to have lost any temperature.
The wind is not strong, but comes and goes. The trees facing the street have all lost their leaves, and dust is covered with dust on the tree trunks. Occasionally, the wind suddenly becomes stronger, and leaves, grass roots, firewood ash and other garbage are scattered in the wind.
It started to form gray-black vortices at street corners and wall bases.
'If placed in the 21st century, the scene in front of me would be particularly suitable for a horror movie. Paired with some horror music, the effect would be 100%.' Suddenly, Han Qing understood what the reason for his uncomfortable feeling was.
Where did it come from? I couldn't help but smile and shake my head.
It's not that there's any danger hidden around, but that the scenery inside the city is too chilling.
After all, improving people's livelihood is not something that he, as a punishment officer, can take care of. Thinking about it honestly, he can only sigh helplessly, "Alas——"
"Unjustly-" Before he could sigh, a sad cry suddenly came from outside the car door, followed closely by a black shadow suddenly rushed out from the alley in front of him and went straight to the convoy. "Master Qingtian
,I was wronged, I was wronged——”
"stop!"
"who!"
"Attack the official car, you will die!"
…
The shouts were quickly drowned out by scoldings.
Not only Wu Er led the veterans of the Suppression Army to surround the accusers. There were also a lot of guys dressed as official officers who appeared out of nowhere, lifted the chains, and put condoms on the necks of the accusers.
The incident happened suddenly. The main task of Wu Er and others was to protect Han Qing's safety, but the officials caught him first and dragged him with an iron chain to the alley next to the street.
"It's wrong, it's wrong! Han Tixing, I'm wronged, I have a grievance that I can't redress!" The person who yelled was a tall and thick beggar. He actually used his hands to open the iron chain around his neck and continued to shout at the top of his voice, fearing that he would not be able to do anything.
Attracting the attention of the legendary Master Qingtian who dared to challenge the entire Yongxing Military Road officialdom.
Hearing him call out his official title, Han Qing was stunned. He was about to order someone to stop the carriage and ask what happened. Suddenly, a second figure rushed over from the other side of the motorcade, "Unjustly accused.
Unjustly accused, Han will be punished, and the common people will die with their eyes open!"
