Translator: 549690339

“Girls are too smart to be married off.”‘

Yang Hongling shrugged her shoulders and didn’t care at all. Her big gem-like eyes were filled with arrogance. “If it were the bunch of trash in the capital, they would rather be alone until they grow old.” He waved his hand.

“I won’t disturb you from your business. I’ll leave first.”

Zhang Ronghua continued on his way. When he arrived at Qin Manor, he stood in the alley and took out a bamboo hat to put on.

Recalling the information recorded on the paper, it stated that after Lei Ming was crippled, he was imprisoned in a kennel, accompanied by dogs, ate and lived together, and should be in a side courtyard.

He circulated his Soul Energy and swept out to check on the Qin Residence. Even if Qin Jiangong was at home, he wouldn’t be able to find him with his cultivation, let alone Qin Jiangong who was currently on duty in Nether Prison.

Very quickly.

He found Leiming about a hundred meters to the left.

He was indeed locked up with the dogs. He was covered in injuries, his clothes were tattered, his hair was disheveled, and his blood had not dried yet. Beside him were three big wolfhounds that were glaring at him. They were all half the height of a human, baring their teeth. Their sharp teeth flickered with a dim light, and traces of blood flowed down the corners of their mouths. It seemed that they had just bitten him.

“How tragic! ”

With a leap, he rushed into the courtyard like a ghost, hiding from the people in the manor and directly appearing in the kennel. Perhaps the people of Qin Manor did not expect that someone would be interested in this trash. In addition, this place was very remote, which made it convenient for Zhang Ronghua.

Sensing that someone was approaching, the three big wolfhounds were about to turn around.

A terrifying pressure pressed down on their bodies and fixed them on the spot.

The soul power circled around them, forming a sealed space that trapped them inside. They were unaware of what was happening outside.

Controlling his voice, he said hoarsely, “You want revenge?”

Leiming, who was lying on the ground and relying on time to recover from his injuries, had his turbid and fearful eyes instantly become sharp and murderous. He removed his disguise and returned to his original appearance.

The blood feud between the Lei Family had always been hidden in his heart. All these years, he did not dare to show it at all. Otherwise, with Qin Jiangong’s ruthlessness, he would definitely chop him up and feed him to the dogs.

Although he didn’t know who the person in front of him was and what his goal was, it had nothing to do with him. As long as he could kill Qin Jiangong, he was willing to pay any price.

Moreover…

He was already a cripple now. What else was there to be concerned about?

Enduring his severe injuries, he climbed up from the kennel with great perseverance. He stopped at the iron bars and stared at Zhang Ronghua.”Yes!”

“Eat it!”

He took out a healing pill and threw it over.

With his current condition, he would not be able to do it even if he was given a chance without treatment.

Without any hesitation, Leiming ate it. Feeling the medicinal power circulating in his body, his injuries quickly healed, and a little hope appeared in his heart.

Zhang Ronghua stretched out his palm and condensed a soul pearl with his soul power. He compressed his power to the extreme and only stopped when it was enough to kill a martial grandmaster. He gave the soul pearl to him. “You only have one chance to attack.”

“Thank you! ”

“Everyone takes what they need. If you have the time, think of your own escape route and where to escape after killing him.”

He left quickly.

Seeing him leave, Leiming gazed at the soul pearl in his hand and sensed the terrifying power contained within it. He guessed in his heart, Heaven Rank Spirit Master?

He put it away solemnly and lay down in his original place again, waiting for night to come.

Every night, after Qin Jiangong returned, he would humiliate him for no reason before returning to his room to rest. This was his chance.

At this moment, the Soul Power that had trapped the three huge wolfhounds disappeared. They looked at each other in confusion and tried their best to recall what had happened just now. Everything was normal. Then, they looked at Leiming again. Just like before, it seemed that they were overthinking things.

After leaving Qin Manor.

Zhang Ronghua put away his bamboo hat and smiled. He was in a good mood. He shook his head and sighed.”What a pity! A good show, but I have no chance to watch it. ”

Looking at the sky, it was almost time for the next shift. He didn’t go to the Eastern Palace and went straight back to his home in the Vermilion Bird Lane.

Just as he reached the door.

A young man was wearing a green robe and a blue scarf. He was dressed like a scholar and had guards with him. He was holding two boxes of gifts and had been waiting for a long time.

Looking at Zhang Ronghua, he cupped his hands and asked, “Are you General Zhang Ronghua?””

“And you are?”

“I’m Chen Youcai, the county magistrate of the East City.”

Zhang Ronghua smiled and sized him up. The latter was not afraid at all and calmly met his scrutinizing gaze. This was a smart person. As soon as the matter had happened, he had come to the door and handed over the declaration of allegiance to the Crown Prince through his hand. He wanted to rely on him to resolve this crisis.

He understood in his heart.

Chen Youcai probably came from a poor family and walked the path of the imperial examination. There was no one behind him. If there was, they would not give up on the eastern city.

Even though he was just a county magistrate, in the capital, under the feet of the emperor, a county magistrate was a high-ranking official. His official position was comparable to that of a county governor, and his political status was even higher than a county governor. No one would give up on him so easily. A strategic position was too important.

“Come in!”

He opened the door and walked in. The guard sensibly closed the door.

She brought him to the lobby.

He brewed a pot of tea, poured two cups, and handed one over.

Zhang Ronghua made a gesture of invitation. He held a cup and pushed the lid down twice. He took a sip and put down the teacup.”County Magistrate Chen is really young and promising. At such a young age, he already has a high position.”

Chen Youcai had already thought it through before he came. Just as he had guessed, he came from a poor family and had no background. He had reached this stage completely by relying on his own abilities.

It was clear that the Crown Prince was determined to get the Eastern City County Office. He could either solve the case or rely on them. There was no third way.

If it was an ordinary case, it would be easy to solve it with some time. However, in a case involving the Crown Prince, the initiative was in his hands. Whether he could solve it or not, and who the murderer was, it was entirely up to the Crown Prince.

Even if he really caught the murderer, if he was unwilling, the result would still be the same.

Turn to someone else? He would probably die even more miserably. It was precisely because he had seen it clearly that this scene had happened today.

He did not hide anything and told her everything. The Ministry of Official Personnel Affairs had records and could find out by flipping through the files. It was better to take the initiative to tell her.

After high school, he was no exception. When he was looking at the results, he was captured by the former Minister of Official Personnel Affairs. As long as he agreed to marry his daughter, he would rise up in the officialdom. If he dared not agree, he would be frozen or found a remote county to take up his post.

In principle.

Chen Youcai had refused, but after seeing his daughter, although she was not as beautiful as a beauty who could topple a country and charm thousands of troops with a smile, she was not bad either. She was above average, gentle and refined, knew how to advance and retreat, and knew the big picture. Thus, she agreed to this marriage.

After they got married.

With his father-in-law’s care, promotion was like drinking water. He was soon promoted to the county magistrate of the eastern city. If nothing unexpected happened, he could be transferred out of the city after a few years in this position. He could take charge of a region and become a major official of the border. However, his father-in-law’s health could not take it anymore and he retired not long after.

When a person leaves, the tea is cold. It’s like walking on thin ice. He wakes up earlier than a chicken and sleeps later than a dog. He’s afraid of being fired. He doesn’t have the right to protect his family and be dealt with by political enemies.

It had been like this for many years, until now..
