Miss Fortune: Is the regent ready for today?

But rumors are just rumors after all, and it’s okay to just pass them by in your ears and mouths.The real chaos started when the Zhao family on the coast in the south of the city lost two fishing boats. Then, that night, the Li family in the north of the city lost two boxes of pearls, and the Wang family in the same street lost six ancestral gold bars... Pingdu Valuable items were lost in the homes of the wealthy people who lived there one after another, which attracted the attention of Daliang officials in Pingdu City. Some people said that some criminal thieves had sneaked into Pingdu quietly under the pretext of the Wulin Sword Club.

It is strange to say that as early as the Three Kings Rebellion and King Yuanjin left the capital for the East China Sea, Pingdu was naturally included in his territory by the world. Therefore, Emperor Chongwen's will was far less important in the eyes of the people of Pingdu. It's easy to carry out the king's orders together.However, since the late emperor came to power and reformed the government, Daliang had abolished the old custom of princes holding fiefdoms. In line with the principle that everything in the world should be ruled by princes, they still sent resident officials to Pingdu, which is now the city of Pingdu. Fu Yongzhong, deputy city lord and general manager of the Pingdu garrison.

Every city in Daliang has its own owner, just like every village has a village chief. The reasons why these city owners came to power are different. For example, Lin City elected the Lin family who first made Lin City rich. Haicheng elected the people who have lived in it for generations. In Haicheng, only the leader of an ancient family named Hai serves as the city lord. In short, if you want to become the city lord, you must not only win the hearts of the people and contribute to the city, but also have good conduct to ensure that the people will not knock you down. This requires both It is really not an easy task to care about the left and right at the same time.

Only the city lord in Pingdu City is different from other places. Zheng Bin, the lord of Pingdu City, was silenced and pushed to the position of city lord.But he was not granted the title by Emperor Chongwen, nor by King Yuanjin, but by Fu Yongzhong, the deputy city lord of Pingdu City.

At first, when this happened, the entire Jiangzhong Mansion was in a sensation. Pei Buchou, the commander of the Jiangzhong garrison, even rode his horse to Pingdu in person, fearing that Fu Yongzhong had been kidnapped by Zheng Bin.

Fu Yongzhong was a veteran of the two dynasties. When the late emperor was in power, he served as the Minister of the Six Ministries. He was able to oversee the documents submitted to the government hall and was even favored to review memorials with the late emperor.Later, when Emperor Chongwen came to the throne, he gave way to talented people and became only the deputy manager of the Sixth Department.

It was not until the Three Kings Rebellion that he was dragged into the palace and lived in disgrace. Some people said that he was actually an aide of the late prince and participated in many plots to force the palace.Emperor Chongwen became suspicious because of this, but thinking of Fu Yongzhong's past achievements, he asked him to retire and return to his hometown. When he returned to Pingping, he became the general manager of the garrison. This seemed to be the new emperor's consideration for the old minister, but in fact it was just Fu Yongzhong. Pushed to the eyes of King Yuan Jin.

If Fu Yongzhong dares to have any contact with Mingzhidu again, Emperor Chongwen will decisively get rid of him. If Fu Yongzhong not only has nothing to do with Mingzhidu, but is also willing to keep an eye on the wind direction of the East China Sea for Emperor Chongwen, then he can Live in peace until old age and die, and have a glorious life.

Fu Yongzhong decisively chose the latter. His many years of serving as an official in the court had developed his character of balancing things. Over the years, he had guarded Pingdu for Emperor Chongwen and watched King Yuanjin's actions in the East China Sea, so when he promoted the young When the news of Zheng Bin becoming the Lord of Pingdu City came back to Shangjing, Emperor Chongwen didn't say much. He just looked like he was happy, which made others even less speechless.

Recently, people in Pingdu City have lost their belongings one after another. Fu Yongzhong ordered the gates of Pingdu City to be closed and only allowed people who had received invitations from the Wulin Sword Club to enter the city. In addition, he also sent officers and soldiers to check the people staying in the inns in the city one by one. Those who found the stolen goods during the search would be sent back to the dungeon in Shangjing and handed over to Dali Temple for disposal.

When Wen Ting'er entered the city, he saw several groups of officers and soldiers lining the streets of the city. After evacuating the crowd, they entered the inn on the street in pairs.

They were holding knives and hanging swords, not as if they were looking for someone, but as if they were arresting someone in a menacing manner.Two of them saw her coming in the opposite direction and walked straight towards her. After seeing the eight gatekeepers lying on their backs in front of the wide-open city gate who had been poisoned by her, one of them drew his sword and pointed the tip of the sword at her. She asked sternly: "Who are you? The gate of Pingdu has been sealed, and you must show an invitation to enter the city."

Another person trotted up to the eight officers and soldiers lying on their backs, stretched out his hand to touch their noses one by one, and shouted: "Dead!"

"You poisoned the city defenders. You have evil intentions. You must be an accomplice of the thieves!"

"Brothers, take her to jail!"

"Come to me! Seek justice for the eight brothers——"

Wen Ting'er stood still. She raised her eyes and looked at the officer and soldier who called for help. She looked him up and down, left and right, with clearly visible contempt and disdain in her eyes, as if she didn't care at all about the large group of people surrounding her. The oppressive officers and soldiers.The officer and soldier she was examining frowned, and the girl in a crow-green dress in front of her looked at her as if she were looking at a dead person.This made him very unhappy. He was about to draw his sword and capture her. However, the moment his fingers touched the scabbard, he felt that his stomach tightened. The next second, he felt overwhelming pain. He knelt down on the ground helplessly, and a mouthful escaped from his mouth. Thick black blood, eyes closed and no breathing.

The whole process took less than half a minute.

The remaining large wave of officers and soldiers formed a circle, trapping Wen Ting'er inside.

They saw that one second ago their brother had opened his eyes and called for them to come and help, but now he turned into a corpse lying on the ground without breathing. They didn't even see the girl take action, but according to the corpses of the brothers, they should It's poison.

What kind of superb poisoning technique can kill people in an instant?

They remembered the news that had been circulating in Pingdu City recently. It was said that several Jianghu sects had joined forces and issued a life-and-death battle to the poison girl of the Wen family in western Hunan who had slaughtered his grandmother and sisters. However, the day before they left for western Hunan, he A reply came from the Gu girl of the Wen family.

She only said one sentence: Pingdu Sword Club, anyone who declares a challenge will die.

The officers and soldiers looked around each other, clearly showing signs of retreat on each other's faces.Although they have been working in Pingdu all year round and never leave home, they have heard too much news about Jianghu. The Wen family in Xiangxi Hunan has unparalleled medicine and poisoning skills and is feared by others. Now the poison girl Wen Ting'er has learned so much. According to the family tradition, she killed everyone in the Wen family except her. Such a ruthless character, on ordinary days, they would have no chance of winning even if they went together, not to mention that she was full of murderous intent at the first sight.

Wen Ting'er did not turn around and look around at the soldiers who gathered around her, because she knew very well that in this world, people in the martial arts world shunned her, but people outside the martial arts world, whether they were Pingdu officers and soldiers or ordinary people, should treat her. Extremely afraid.

She crossed her chest and walked forward, step by step.

Step by step, she stepped on the corpses of the officers and soldiers she had just killed.

She seemed to be carrying a mountain of corpses and a sea of ​​blood, like a god of death who had come to the world.

The officers and soldiers directly in front of her could not help but frown and retreat. From the current scene, it seemed that they were not rounding up her, but she was forcing them back.

At this moment, a Huanhua embroidered spear shot out of the air, stabbed down from the sky, and hit Wen Ting'er's head. She noticed the sharp edge and looked up. When her eyes touched the spear, she subconsciously turned to After taking half a step back, the barrel of the gun was inserted into the ground in front of her. It was a full inch deep. The golden-pink zhenqi was wrapped around the spear. She guessed the identity of the visitor and frowned slightly.

"Young master of the Wen family, you are well." The voice arrived before anyone arrived, and a slow and indifferent male voice came from the attic on the left. (End of chapter)
