Chapter 172 The Arrival of the Prefect

171
Even though Lianqiu and Fudong's martial arts are advanced, it is still a bit difficult for them to face twenty or so men who know martial arts.

The two of them sprinkled the medicine powder in their hands towards the person opposite without leaving a trace, and a large piece fell down in an instant.

The girl said, when you can save trouble, save some trouble, only fools talk about martial arts everywhere.

The remaining ten or so people on the other side were startled, and they looked at Lianqiu and Fudong with a bit of fear in their eyes.

With Lianqiu and Fudong leading the way, Nuannuan walked towards Duji Peak step by step.

Wen Nuan was petite, but at this moment his face was cold, giving people a sense of oppression, and every step he took seemed to land on Du Jifeng's chest.

Du Jifeng took a step back unconsciously, and when he realized it, he panicked and ordered to the two subordinates guarding him: "Quick, stop them!"

The more than 20 paid bodyguards couldn't stop them. How could two people who usually only pretend to be powerful could stop them?
The two subordinates pulled out their knives nervously, but they fell limply before lifting the knives.

Lianqiu and Fudong were stunned at the same time, and then looked at each other.

They didn't do anything.

This scene was so weird that Du Jifeng was scared out of his wits.

"'Le Quan Township Lord', if you have something to say, speak up!" Du Jifeng yelled at Wen Nuan sternly, "I am an official appointed by the imperial court. If you dare to hurt me, no one can protect you!"

Nuannuan continued to move forward slowly, and stopped three steps away from Duji Peak.

Du Jifeng secretly breathed a sigh of relief, just about to say something, Wen Nuan suddenly clutched her chest in pain, a mouthful of hot blood spurted from her mouth, and sprayed directly on Du Jifeng's face.

Du Jifeng wiped his face subconsciously, and when he found that his face and the front of his official uniform were covered with blood, he screamed in fright: "Ah~~ help——"

"No, Nuan Nuan vomited blood!" Seeing this scene, Zhou An screamed and ran towards Nuan Nuan.

When Luo Shi and the others heard Zhou An's cry, they almost fainted.

"Nuan Nuan, Nuan Nuan, what's wrong with you? Don't scare A Niang, okay?" Luo Shi ran over and hugged the "tumbling" daughter, tears falling like beads with a broken thread.

"Nuan Nuan——" Wen Jing supported Nuan Nuan's other arm with a pale face, and shouted: "Doctor, please doctor!"

Knowing that Wen Nuan vomited blood from anger, the villagers were shocked, angry and anxious.

The old people and women in the village surrounded Wen Nuan, and the men in the village shouted angrily: "Fight with them!"

"Yes, fight with them!"

The folks picked up the guy and ran towards Dujifeng with a murderous look.

Du Jifeng was so frightened that his liver and gallbladder were torn apart, he lifted the hem of his official uniform and ran desperately towards the entrance of the village.

"Dog officer, stop!" The villagers chased after him and shouted.

Just as Du Jifeng ran to the village entrance, he suddenly saw Xu Qian, the prefect of Zhongzhou in official uniform, leading a group of people towards Qing'ao Village. He was overjoyed and cried, "Master Xu, help~~"

saved, saved~~
Xu Gan reined in his horse, frowned and looked at Du Jifeng who was kneeling under his horse in embarrassment: "What's going on?"

If he hadn't heard his voice, Xu Gan would have almost not recognized that this person was the county magistrate of Qingyang City.

"My lord, the villagers of Qing'ao Village want to rebel and almost killed the lower official, you must be the master of the lower official~~" Du Jifeng cried out with lingering fear.

Du Jifeng cried out of fear, and Xu Gan frowned even tighter.

How decent is it for the parents and officials of a majestic county to cry like this? !
At this time, the villagers of Qing'ao Village also caught up.

Seeing Xu Qian, many villagers recognized this as the prefect of Zhongzhou who had personally rode his horse to catch up with their large troops and greeted them warmly.

The villagers of Qing'ao Village knelt down behind Du Jifeng, and shouted in unison: "I have seen the magistrate!"

Du Jifeng was so frightened that his knees gave way, he lay on the ground, and the next second he quickly crawled forward, as if there was a ghost behind him.

Xu Gan pinched his forehead angrily: "Everyone, get up."

As Xu Gan spoke, he winked at Xu Chenghai, his confidant and servant, Xu Chenghai understood, got off his horse and helped Du Jifeng up.

Du Jifeng was really terrified just now, but now that he saw the savior, he couldn't stop crying for a while.

The expression on Xu Chenghai's face was indescribable.

After all, he is the county magistrate of Qingyang City, crying like this in public, how will he face the people of Qingyang City in the future?
Xu Gan got off his horse, looked at the guys in the hands of the folks in Qing'ao Village, and said, "Tell me, what happened here?"

Before the folks in Qing'ao Village could speak, the villain Du Jifeng, who was crying "miserably", complained first: "Xu...Master Xu, you have to make the decision for the subordinates...!"

Xu Gan endured and endured, but he still couldn't hold back and yelled: "Du Jifeng, talk to me carefully!"

It's not a girl, what does she look like crying!
Da Lang and Er Lang came out from the crowd, and Da Lang said angrily, "Report to the magistrate, Du Jifeng, the magistrate of Qingyang County, sent people to our Qing'ao Village to snatch the high-yield grain seeds of 'Lequan Xiangjun', but failed. Just trying to kill 'Lequan Township Lord'..."

"Bold!" Du Jifeng hastily interrupted Dalang's words: "I am here to expropriate grain seeds. When did you rob them by force? Also, don't talk nonsense. When will I kill 'Lequan Xiangjun'?" ?”

"All the villagers in our village can testify!" Erlang glared at Du Jifeng: "Eight days ago you brought someone to ask my sister for grain seeds, and my sister said that you could sell the grain seeds to the common people at a low price. You brought dozens of people over to rob me, hurt my sister, made her vomit blood, the whole village saw it, do you still want to argue?"

Xu Gan was shocked and angry when he heard the words: "Du Jifeng, you are a majestic county official, you don't set an example for the people, and you even try to rob other people's property and even vomit blood?!"

The object is still the "Lequan Township Lord" who has made great contributions to the people of Xilin Kingdom, who was personally appointed by the emperor!
Is Du Jifeng careless? !

"My lord, I have been wronged, but I have not!" Du Jifeng saw Xu Gan's anger, and subconsciously wanted to deny it.

"The blood my sister vomited on you hasn't dried yet, and you want to deny it!" Erlang was so angry that he was about to rush up to praise Du Jifeng, but was stopped by Xu Chenghai.

"How is 'Lequan Xiangjun' doing now?" Xu Chenghai asked Erlang.

Xu Chenghai actually stopped Erlang for his own good, no matter what Du Jifeng was, he was an official ordered by the court, and if Erlang really wanted to beat him, the one who suffered was himself.

Erlang's eyes were red: "My sister is unconscious now, my father took a small road to the town to ask for a doctor."

"Go to the village quickly, first go and see the Lord!" Xu Qian didn't even get on his horse, and strode directly into the village.

Du Jifeng saw that the villagers looked like they wanted to cut him into pieces, so in order to save his life, Du Jifeng quickly followed Xu Gan.

Nuannuan has already been carried back to Wen's house by Lianqiu, and is sitting by the bed eating grapes.

Fudong walked into the backyard and said in a low voice: "Miss, Mr. Xu has arrived."
