"My identity is not the point. Every member of the Metropolitan Procuratorate has his own unique identity. I don't know how your lord values you, and I won't take care of you just because you are selected by the first lord.
You have to understand that the position you are about to assume is very important. Not only may you die at any time, but you may also harm others."
Yu Ji's voice was a little gloomy, which made Zhang Kui feel a little scared. However, he could not really understand the unique position of the Metropolitan Procuratorate in this world, so he felt that Yu Ji's words were a bit alarmist.
Zhang Kui did not answer and stood in front of Yu Ji blankly.
Yu Ji added: "It seems that you don't understand anything now, but do you know why the First Master chose to leave?"
Zhang Kui shook his head blankly.
"Because he is a kind-hearted person, some darker things will be left to us to do."
"What...what?" Zhang Kui felt a little uneasy.
"As members of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, each member has a unique mask to show his position. You should first become familiar with your own mask."
Saying that, Yu Ji dropped a horse-faced mask in front of Zhang Kui.
Zhang Kui fumbled to pick it up and feel it, then smiled bitterly: "Do people like me still need to wear a mask?"
What he said was that half of his face had been poured with copper juice, and it was no longer much different from wearing a mask.
Yu Ji smiled: "I didn't tell you to put it on, but I put such a mask on your face. You will never be able to take it off."
"What?" Zhang Kui was shocked. He instinctively wanted to run away, but he hit his head against the wall and gasped in pain.
Yu Ji's expression was calm. In this dark hut, the beautiful woman looked gloomy: "Before you came, the first lady briefly explained your situation. In view of the fact that you have a history of betraying the Lord, you and others
The treatment will also be different. The Metropolitan Procuratorate will give opportunities to traitors, but they will always live under the mask of the Metropolitan Procuratorate and will never see the light of day. It is our rule to cast a copper mask on a human face. Of course, you can also choose to leave.
, I won’t stop you.”
"This...this is different from what I thought...I...I..."
Zhang Kui was afraid. What he feared most was the feeling of copper juice pouring on his body. That feeling was more uncomfortable than going to hell! He wanted to rush out of the door, but found that he could not find the door at all, so he ran away.
I fell several times after taking a few steps. The dark world was eerily quiet, with only the tinkling of forging iron and the whirring of the bellows blowing the furnace.
Zhang Kui couldn't feel Yu Ji, but he could think of the disdain and contempt on Yu Ji's face at this moment. In Zhang Kui's world, everyone seemed to have such an expression, looking at him like a monster or a clown, looking at him
All kinds of helplessness...
After a moment, Zhang Kui stopped, took a deep breath, and tried hard to straighten his back: "Miss Yu, follow your rules."
"Li Zhuang, are you okay?"
"everything's ready."
…
Three days later, there was a strange man with a stooped body and a cane on the main street where Heroes Village was located. He was wearing a bamboo hat and always lowered his head. He walked slowly but steadily with every step. Those who were curious
The children ran up to him and lowered their bodies to see his face. But when they saw the faces under the bamboo hats, all of them turned pale and ran away for a long distance before bursting into tears.
This man arrived at Heroes Village and came to a remote and deserted house.
Xia Shang was waiting there, drinking tea leisurely.
"how does it feel?"
The other party slowly sat in front of Xia Shang, put down the guiding stick without taking off the hat, and said in a hoarse voice: "It still hurts."
"Would you like some tea?"
"No need."
"Can you tell me Chunjiao's whereabouts now?"
Zhang Kui's words were simple: "The person you are looking for was captured by the second prince."
"Second prince?" Xia Shang frowned after hearing this. He always thought it was Chunfang Si Jinniang who did it, but he didn't expect it to be the second prince.
"are you sure?"
"I'm not sure, but the people under my command said that the person you were looking for was carried into the Suzhou Mansion where the second prince lives."
This is really beyond Xia Shang's expectation. If it is true, it proves that there must be the power of Chunfang Division behind the second prince, because only people from Chunfang Division can drive the Snow Viper. In that case, the power of the second prince has a certain influence in Xia Shang's heart.
A strong point.
If he didn't have the status of the head of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, he might not have had a conflict with the second prince, but now as the head of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, the second prince would definitely take action against him. In today's era, when it comes to the battle between princes,
The Metropolitan Procuratorate is a huge force, and all forces will choose to win over it. But the previous events have shown that there will not be too much harmony with the second prince. I am afraid that the other party also knows that he will not join his side casually. I am afraid that and
A full-scale conflict between the two princes is only a matter of time, and the cover of his business identity may have been discovered by the second prince long ago.
The greater the power of the second prince, the greater the pressure he will face in the future, so Xia Shang was very uneasy after learning that Chunfang Si was behind the second prince.
But saying this made Xia Shang feel at ease, because at least he could guarantee that nothing would happen to Chunjiao.
Because the second prince would never be so impulsive as to kill Chunjiao and become enemies with the chief of the Metropolitan Procuratorate. The reason why he captured Chunjiao and held on to him probably was because he still couldn't see clearly Xia Shang's true strength.
In this case, Xia Shang felt that he should take some time to formally meet with the second prince.
Putting this matter aside for the time being, Xia Shang was still wondering about what happened to Zhang Kui. Who asked him to guide him to Shuiyue Villa? That person must be related to the forces that attacked Shuiyue Villa.
"Tell me, who is the person who persecuted you?"
Zhang Kui didn't have much expression, and seemed to have made a lot of judgments about the past: "My wife... no... she should be a vixen. Now that I think about it, she was just to lurk around me from the beginning. All the money I got from the Beggar Gang was given to me.
He killed her, but disappeared in the end. On the day when the master came to inquire, she asked me to tell you to go to Shuiyue Villa. After the master left, another woman came, who seemed to be the vixen's boss, and she was the one who ordered the poaching.
They even caught me and tortured me, but they didn’t let me die and left me outside. If it hadn’t been for that boy Hong Qi, I would have died long ago.”
"Two women? What characteristics do they have?"
"That vixen is good-looking and likes to pretend to be pitiful. She doesn't have any very obvious characteristics. But she asked me to spend fifty thousand taels of silver to buy a jade pendant made of blood jade with a koi hanging inside. There are wheat-colored tassels on the bottom.
The blood glowed under the moonlight, which was very magical. She couldn't put it down and wore it around her waist all day long. As for the other woman, I didn't see clearly. She was wearing a veil, and I only saw her big eyes. I was stabbed soon after.
I'm blind...but I think that woman looks familiar, as if I've seen her somewhere. By the way, she has a mole at the corner of her eye." (To be continued)
