Seeing that Lin Ji had no intention of continuing to take action, a look of disappointment clearly flashed across Zhan Chengfeng's face.
It's a pity that no one was killed.
At this moment, Wu Fei quickly approached Zhan Chengfeng.
"Sir, you have to make the decision for me!"
"Get aside, don't you know the cause of the matter?" Zhan Chengfeng is not Lin Ji. No matter whether you were seriously injured or not, Wu Fei was knocked unconscious with a slap.
Just after arriving here, he learned what happened from the policeman on the side.
A group of ordinary police officers faced the town officials, how could they dare to tell a lie.
It is precisely because of this that Zhan Chengfeng, who knew the origin of the matter, felt disgusted with Wu Fei.
"Master Zhan." Lin Ji also came to Zhan Chengfeng and said hello.
Zhan Chengfeng looked like Lin Ji and asked, "How about it? Are you satisfied with the meeting gift from my subordinates?"
"I couldn't be more satisfied. After I take office, none of these agents will be able to stay." Lin Ji said with a smile.
This group of policemen who hang out with Wu Fei all day long are not good people at first glance.
Lin Ji is not a selfless or upright character.
The only thing he can't accept is using his official status to dominate others. Other than that, you can do whatever you like. If you go too far, you can deal with it.
In Qingyang County, none of his men dared to live with the common people until they were full.
But here in Liangcheng.
A glimpse tells the whole story. Just from the trembling look on the innkeeper's face today, Lin Ji could almost tell what kind of behavior these policemen who followed Wu Fei had on weekdays.
Zhan Chengfeng nodded slightly. He wouldn't care about these little things. When Lin Ji took office, he would do whatever he wanted.
"Lin Ji, do you know why Wu Fei targeted you?" Zhan Chengfeng suddenly smiled and narrowed his eyes.
"I don't know, sir. Please clarify my doubts."
"When you went to the capital to report on your duties that day, after killing the ghost general, did you encounter Wu Fei who went to investigate on my order?"
"It's true." Lin Ji nodded thoughtfully and looked at Wu Fei in confusion.
Could it be that he overstepped his authority and killed the ghost general near Liangcheng, making this man's face disgraced?
"When this kid came back, he said that he killed the ghost general by himself, and you assisted him."
Wu Fei's face suddenly turned pale. He didn't even know that Zhan Chengfeng had already seen through this matter.
Lin Ji couldn't help laughing.
"Haha, sorry..."
Looking at Wu Fei, Lin Ji had a teasing expression on his face: "Stealing chickens will end up losing rice, but I don't blame you for this. Who would have thought that a ghost general could cause the troubles we have now."
"It's just that he has evil intentions and is greedy!"
Zhan Chengfeng looked at Wu Fei coldly: "Lin Ji has broken through to the fourth realm. He has been working diligently and conscientiously in Qingyang County. Therefore, not long ago, I had submitted his name to the capital as the president of Liangzhou.
Candidates for arrest.”
"Fourth level? Chief arrester? Him?!" Wu Fei suddenly raised his head and looked at Lin Ji.
The amount of information was too much, and he couldn't react.
"Now that he has come to Liangcheng, he is preparing to fill the vacancy of the chief arrester and take charge of the affairs of the Supervisory Office in Liangzhou! Wu Fei, if you made a mistake, you should have committed it first. You should have been investigated for a felony, but
If your cultivation is ruined, just remove yourself from the official position and go back to farming."
Zhan Chengfeng pronounced Wu Fei's fate in just a few words.
Then, he looked at Lin Ji again.
"The position of chief catcher is quite important. It's not a big deal if it remains empty. You can take up the post tomorrow."
"The house of the former Chief Constable will be given to you as a gift. The housekeeper and servants are still there, you can use them as you wish."
After finishing his words, Zhan Chengfeng disappeared without waiting for Lin Ji to respond.
Lin Ji looked at Wu Fei, who was beside him as if he was mourning for his heir, and said nothing. Shi Shiran turned around and left.
This matter is not worthy of his attention.
...
After leaving the government office, Lin Ji followed Zhan Chengfeng's men all the way to the former chief constable's house.
This house is located in Liangcheng. It has a four-door gate with green bricks and red tiles, and a pair of majestic stone lions standing at the door.
Just looking at this gate, Lin Ji felt that this place was not even much worse than the Prime Minister's Mansion in the capital.
"This is the residence of the Liangzhou Chief Constable, a mere sixth-rank official? Wu Fei's scoundrel said I was a bumpkin before, and he was right."
After Lin Ji entered the house, Zhan Chengfeng's men left.
A housekeeper in his early forties came over.
Behind him were more than a dozen maids with beautiful faces.
"Master, little Li Ying, your housekeeper..."
When he said this, Butler Li felt quite embarrassed and uneasy, wondering if the new master would leave him behind.
Lin Ji has always been a person who is too lazy to bother.
Since Zhan Chengfeng dared to keep these people, it proved that they had no problem, and Lin Ji was too lazy to bother.
Anyway, there's nothing shameful about him.
"Lao Li, right? My surname is Lin, the same as your predecessor, the chief arrester of Liangzhou."
"Congratulations, sir..."
"Stop flattering me, everything in the house remains as usual, and now you go buy me some food, that's all."
After sending the housekeeper away with a few words, Lin Ji started walking around the house by himself.
Walking into the gate is the screen wall, and behind the screen wall is the garden. At the end of the garden is a lobby, which should be used by the host to receive guests.
There are paths on both sides leading to the other courtyards. The entire courtyard is covered with flowers of various colors, which is a feast for the eyes in the early late spring season.
"Luxury enough." Lin Ji couldn't help but sigh.
Not long after, the housekeeper Lao Li quickly found Lin Ji.
"Is the meal ready?" Lin Ji's eyes lit up.
"Sir, we have a visitor."
"Guest?" Lin Ji frowned. He didn't know any friends in Liangcheng.
"They must have known about your appointment as Chief Inspector and came to congratulate you." Lao Li lowered his head and explained.
Only then did Lin Ji understand, and then he waved his hand impatiently.
"Nothing is seen."
After the words fell, Lao Li did not move, but just smiled bitterly.
"Master, it's not easy to come here. It's not easy to offend... You'd better go and meet him."
"How extraordinary is it?" Lin Ji turned back, a little curious.
"Several major families in the city have sent people here. People from these families hold important positions in the city and have been in business for many years. They are deeply rooted, so..."
"So if I don't see them, they still dare to embarrass me?" Lin Ji sneered, "Then let's let them embarrass me."
Seeing that Lin Ji was determined not to give face, Lao Li had no choice but to reply.
Lin Ji didn't care at all about the so-called big families.
Although he is relatively casual with his subordinates and people in Qingyang County, it does not mean that he is afraid of trouble.
After Wu Fei provoked him several times, he dared to directly destroy his cultivation. What could the family in Liang City do?
He is a monk in the fourth realm, the chief arrester of Liangzhou, Supervisor of Heaven! In this huge Liangzhou, no one can control him except Zhan Chengfeng. Even those big sects and big families can not give him face.
"It's best for everyone to live in peace. If you come here to cause trouble for no reason... then don't blame me for setting fire to your heads as a new official."
