Chapter 220
"Ye Qing."

"Ye Chaoming, how are you? Are you injured?" Ye Qing quickly stepped forward to help him up.

Guo Mingfeng untied the rope from Ye Chaoming's body.

Ye Chaoming's injury was not very serious, no bones or muscles were injured, it was just a skin trauma, that is, the face was horribly beaten.

He could have been spared the pain of flesh and blood, but his strong condemnation of the robbers was met with crazy revenge by the other party, and finally he became what he is now.

Ye Chaoming shook his head: "My injury is not a problem, Ye Qing, I'm sorry for what happened to you, this..."

Ye Chaoming was very guilty. The accident happened in his hands, and he couldn't absolve himself of the blame.

"It's not your fault. There are so many of them. You are no match for them. If something like this happens in the future, life-saving is the most important thing. Money is something outside of your body. If you can run, you can run. If you can't, you can pretend to be dead. I can afford it." Ye said lightly.

There are some commonly used medicines in the shop, which were made by Ye Qing himself, just for fear of burns and scalds.

Ye Qing found out the medicine box and helped Ye Chaoming apply the medicine.

Guo Mingfeng looked at the messy shop and said, "It seems that we won't be able to open normally tomorrow."

Ye Qing: "Then rest for a few days, and you still need to buy supplies. Now tap it, make a list, and see how much you lost, but don't move the scene."

Ye Chaoming didn't know, so: "Why?"

"Look at the situation, do you want to report to the official?"

Guo Mingfeng immediately understood: "I'll go out and see if there are any clues."

Ye Qing: "Okay."

A quarter of an hour later, Guo Mingfeng came back with a serious expression on his face: "I checked the surrounding situation, only our store was robbed, the others were unscathed, and, after the incident took so long, no one from other stores came out. "

It's normal for no one to come out. They are in the dark, and they are facing robbers with weapons. It's still a matter of life.

Ye Qing: "It seems that this is aimed at us."

The snail noodle shop is not on the lively main street, it should be said to be a relatively remote location.

The other party did not rob the gold store, nor the grain store, nor the bank, but came to rob the snail noodle shop run by Xiaoben.

There are also surrounding shops, which are also unscathed, so what if it wasn't intentional?
The gate of the city is closed at night, and Xiaotong ran out, benefiting from the one tael of silver in his hand.

It was his wages, and he kept it in his arms all the time, reluctant to use it, even when he was sleeping, he had to touch it to feel at ease.

When Ye Qing came in just now, he also spent a lot of money, otherwise the guards of the city wouldn't let them go, they were very dark-hearted.

Ye Qing: "Report to the officials immediately."

"Yes!"

Guo Mingfeng went alone, while Ye Qing and Ye Chaoming stayed in the shop to count things.

The surroundings were quiet, making the shop even more bleak.

"Hey, is there anyone inside? Hurry up and open the door." Guo Mingfeng slammed on the gate of the county government.

However, I don't know if the people inside were dead asleep or there was no one on duty. After filming for a long time, there was no response at all.

Guo Mingfeng got angry and shouted loudly: "If you don't open the door again, believe it or not, this door will be smashed by me."

"Damn it, who is so arrogant outside, looking for death, right?" There was a sound of cursing from inside.

After rustling for a long time, the door finally opened.

The one who opened the door was a slightly older yamen servant, who looked at Guo Mingfeng sleepily, with a very bad attitude: "Boy, is your house dead or robbed? Can't you wait until tomorrow?"

That said, it's a shame.

Guo Mingfeng did indeed do that, and swung his fist.

The yamen servant woke up instantly, sweating coldly from fright.

However, that hand stopped when it was 0.01 centimeter away from the tip of his nose.

The yamen servant squatted down, touched his still intact nose, and breathed a sigh of relief: "I'm scared to death."

What kind of person is this, so arrogant.

A cold voice sounded above his head: "The snail noodle shop has been robbed, I'm here to report to the police, who should I contact?"

Hearing that it was the official report, the yamen servant stood up, forgetting that he was so scared that he almost peed, and said angrily: "It's midnight, what official report, get out!"

After speaking, I wanted to close the door.

Guo Mingfeng blocked the door with one hand, and said coldly, "I'll say it again, I want to report to the police."

The yamen servant said loudly: "You are sick, if you don't sleep, I will still sleep."

Guo Mingfeng looked at him condescendingly: "Is that how you are officials? I, Dongling, have a rule that every yamen must have someone on duty at night to prevent emergencies. I think you have done it well."

Dongling does have this rule, it is equivalent to a modern police station, there must be someone on duty 24 hours a day, and Dongling is no exception.

It's just that there are policies and countermeasures. It's okay to let people stay on duty at night. If you close the door and sleep in the dark, who knows.

Anyway, they are ordinary people with no background, who dares to complain against them, if they find out, they must beat up the person who complained, to see if he dares to do it next time.

Rich people have nursing homes, and they can solve it privately, and they still need to take action there.

Yamen servant: "I want to report to the officials, come back tomorrow, I am the only one in the Yamen right now, I'm going away, who is here to watch the night? Besides, who dares to go out without the order of the magistrate."

In desperation, Guo Mingfeng had no choice but to go back home with a dark face.

He can force his way in, but what about after entering?

County Magistrate Lu is still sound asleep, so it is impossible to handle the case for you right away.

Regardless of whether there are any arrests inside, they are destined not to send anyone out.

Hearing Guo Mingfeng's reply, Ye Qing was at a loss for a moment.

It took me a while to realize that this is ancient times, and there is no current police station. A 110 call was made, and the police car arrived immediately.

No matter whether you are a bandit or a trafficker, you cannot escape the eyes of the sky, let alone the law.

It's been a few years, and I still can't seem to get used to it.

Ye said softly: "Then wait for dawn before going, anyway, it's almost dawn."

Guo Mingfeng didn't understand why Ye Qing was so persistent in reporting to the officials, so he asked his doubts: "Look at the attitude of this yamen, they are all incompetent people, the possibility of finding out the truth is very small, why don't we find out the truth behind the scenes by ourselves?" black hands."

Ye Qing gave him a white look: "Let us do everything by ourselves, what is the government for? They are eating imperial food, so that's how they do things?"

However, Guo Mingfeng hadn't returned from the yamen when news came from the vegetable shop that the shop had been smashed.

Ye Qing was taken aback: "It happened last night again?"

The guy: "It should be, I was the first to come to the store, and found that everything inside was smashed and the money was stolen..."

The vegetable shop is on another street, a bit far apart.

There is not much decoration inside, and a place that sells vegetables is a waste if the decoration is too good.

No one was left inside, and after closing, except for the vegetables, it was just an empty shell.

The money left in it will not be much, just the sales of the day and some copper coins for change.

Ye Qing: "It seems that I was careless. I thought that only the snail noodle shop was the target of their attack. Unexpectedly, even the vegetable shop was not spared."

Who would have thought that it was just a place to sell vegetables, and it couldn't make much money a day, so it became the target of their destruction.

When Guo Mingfeng came back, he brought two policemen over quickly.

The other party just looked at it symbolically, and then said to Ye Qing: "Wait for the notice."

Guo Mingfeng was dumbfounded, is this the end?
Is it so easy for the Yamen to handle cases?

Ye Qing was also very disappointed, it seemed that he had to do it himself.

In the study room of the yamen, County Magistrate Lu looked smug: "Ye Qing, Ye Qing, come beg me, as long as you beg me, this case will be solved immediately, isn't it very capable, isn't it that you look down upon me?" Boss, let me tell you, without my guarding you, no matter how many shops you open, they will be smashed, and the next step, they will enter the village, and all your fruits and vegetables will be turned into a pile of waste, haha!"

The master looked flattering: "My lord is right, a peasant girl like her, if you don't give her some flair, you'll think she's a rich lady."

Zhang Butou didn't speak, he thought Lu county magistrate had gone crazy.

Since Miss Ye rejected his marriage proposal last time, she seemed to be a different person when she came back, thinking of ways to fix Miss Ye.

This time he spent a lot of money to go to other places to find someone to smash the field, and he was well prepared.

Afraid of being found out, he never showed up during the whole transaction process, and he was the one who was sought by the master.

Do you think he is courageous, but he dare not come forward by himself.

Do you think he is timid? Chief Zhang himself knows about this, otherwise how could the other officials be allowed to go through the motions during the investigation.

I still remember when he first came to be the county magistrate, he shrank what he did because he was afraid of offending the local gentry and local tyrants.

In just a few years, I thought I had gained a firm foothold in Qingfeng Town, and I wasn't afraid that a girl would look down on me.

County magistrate Lu didn't care what Zhang Butou thought, he couldn't wait to see Ye Qing kneel before him humbly, begging him to find the culprit.

However, after waiting for three days, not only did Ye Qing not come to inquire about the progress of the case, but he also did not send anyone under his command.

So, he couldn't sit still anymore, and someone called Ye Qing to the yamen.

When he arrived at the yamen, Ye Qing didn't feel any embarrassment at all, and said straightforwardly: "Lord Lu, what do you want me for?"

County magistrate Lu looked at Ye Qing, who was getting more and more attractive in front of him, and he was even more angry. This girl is really annoying. If it wasn't for fear of too much influence, he would have robbed her directly, and there is no need to do this behind her back. little tricks.

The county magistrate Lu said bluntly: "Miss Ye, you see, without the protection of the official, you are nothing."

Ye Qing smiled coldly: "So, I still have to rely on County Magistrate Lu?"

County magistrate Lu: "So you don't know how to be flexible. You have thought about it. You are not alone. Behind you is your family and the villagers of Shihe Village. You don't think about yourself, you always think about them. Bar."

Ye Qing didn't speak, but just listened quietly.

County magistrate Lu thought that Ye Qing had listened to it, and continued: "I remember you have a younger brother named Ye Zhi, who has a good academic performance. If there is no accident, you can give it a try next year. He may be the youngest in Qingfeng Town. talent."

Ye Zhi has passed the Tongsheng exam, is the youngest Tongsheng, and is also the focus of the teachers.

Having such a student is really a bright face!

One master had already begun to fantasize that Ye Zhi might be the youngest number one scholar in Dongling Kingdom.

Ye Qing's expression changed: "What do you mean?"

County magistrate Lu chuckled: "It means that your brother's future is in the hands of the official, and you should understand how to do it well. It doesn't need to be so clear."

Ye Qing picked up a teacup on the table and smashed it on the ground, smashing it all over the place.

"Lord Lu, are you threatening me?" Ye Qinghan said in a voice.

Seeing that her face was covered with frost, County Magistrate Lu was not angry, but said gloomily, "It's not a threat, it's just telling the truth."

Ye Qing: "What if I don't obey?"

County Magistrate Lu: "Then don't blame me for being rude."

Ye Qing smiled coldly, without any fear in his heart, he suddenly took out a dagger, pointed at the county magistrate Lu, and said, "Lord Lu, just wait and see."

County magistrate Lu looked at the knife in her hand, showing no fear on his face, instead he smiled and approached, "Okay, then you just wait."

"Then you have to be careful, I don't recognize people with this dagger." Ye Qing said coldly, the knife pierced like wind, and hit the throat of County Magistrate Lu!

County magistrate Lu's expression darkened, he didn't expect her to be so bold that she even dared to kill an official ordered by the court.

County magistrate Lu's complexion turned from gloomy to black, and he stared at Ye Qing firmly.

In ancient times, civil and martial arts were of little importance, and Ye Qing was born in a farming family, but she didn't have the slightest bit of respect, and she acted so boldly.

No matter in which era, people dare not fight with officials.

I really can't figure out that this little peasant girl dared to be so bold.

He wanted to resist, but unfortunately, the blade was too cold, he couldn't resist, and watched Ye Qing walk away swaggeringly.

Back at the snail noodle shop, Ye Qing asked: "Does the county magistrate Lu live in the city or in the countryside? Is there a nurse at home?"

"I live in the backyard of the yamen on weekdays. The arrest is the guarantee for him to go out. He usually takes three or five people with him. During this time, he rarely goes out at night. It may be a bit difficult to kidnap him." Jiang Daru said truthfully. .

Jiang Da came back only two days ago. When he heard that something happened to the store, he rushed back immediately.

Ye Qing raised her eyebrows: "Who said I'm going to tie him up?"

Jiang Da was stunned: "But if you don't kidnap people, how will you solve this matter?"

Ye Qing shook his head, and said: "I remember he hasn't been here for many years, right?"

After pondering for a moment, Ye Qing asked again: "Does County Magistrate Lu have the habit of sleeping out? Is there any problem with drinking flower wine and visiting brothels?"

"As long as it is a man, there must be. There are two famous brothels in Qingfeng Town. Many officials and wealthy businessmen will patronize them. They drink and have fun. The county magistrate Lu rarely goes there. After all, he is an official, too ostentatious, and will be stabbed I went up there." Jiang said.

Guo Mingfeng waved the sharp sword in his hand: "Where is it so wordy, just do him directly, and it will be settled..."

Ye Qing raised her hand to interrupt him: "It's easy to kill him, but there will be a lot of trouble later."

If an official is killed, someone from above will definitely be sent to investigate, and they will definitely be found out.
