Chapter 57 Nothing to worry about
Liang Jin sneered:
"Since they want to kill us, how can we afford to offend them?"

Miao Yuanzheng could only elaborate:
"The person behind Yang Jingye is a royal relative."

"Concubine Han's biological father, Han Guozhang."

According to the custom of the Daqian Dynasty, only the father of the queen could be called the father-in-law of the country.

And only when one reaches the level of Imperial Noble Consort can one's family members become royal relatives.

The family members of ordinary concubines were not worthy of being the emperor's relatives. They could only be the emperor's subjects. On weekdays, they were not even qualified to enter the palace unless there were special circumstances.

But this is not absolute.

It mainly depends on the emperor's attitude.

Among emperors of all dynasties, there have been examples of calling the father of a high-ranking concubine the father-in-law of the emperor.

Now Concubine Han is favored by the emperor, so her father is also given the title of father-in-law of the emperor and is included in the royal family.

Although Han Guozhang's official position was of a relatively high rank, it was only a nominal position with no real power.

Because of his daughter, he is also extremely influential in official circles.

Liang Jin sneered:
"I thought he was the king of heaven, but it turns out he's just a dog of the royal family."

If you are bitten by a dog, the best thing to do is to kill the dog.

As he spoke, Liang Jin's real body, thousands of miles away, had already begun to use the [Thousand Mile Tracking] feature.

After the name "Yang Jingye" was entered, the locations of people with this name appeared on the map.

Miao Yuanzheng hesitated and said:

"Great and Good Master, we have no evidence to prove that it was Yang Jingye who wanted to harm you."

"Perhaps there is someone else behind this."

However, Liang Jin had already discovered clues on the map.

A red dot was actually nearby.

The location is inside the county government office of Taiyang County.

"Is there anyone named Yang Jingye in the county government office?"

Liang Jin asked.

Miao Yuanzheng shook his head.

Recently, most people in the yamen have joined the Taiping Dao, and Miao Yuanzheng is already well aware of the situation in the yamen.

Liang Jin's eyes flashed with coldness:

"In that case, I already have the evidence."

"Now, let's go to the county government office."

Liang Jin raised his leg and walked away.

Miao Yuanzheng was slightly puzzled.

What can I do at the county government office?

Report to the official?

Reporting to a mere county magistrate, can he handle a big shot like Yang Jingye?

If you want to report to the authorities, you have to go to the provincial capital at least.

What's more, now that we have been targeted by the enemy, it is not certain whether we can reach the provincial capital.

Miao Yuanzheng hurriedly caught up with Liang Jin and reminded him:

"Great and virtuous teacher, I think what the killer said just now is true."

"It is rumored that Yang Jingye has always been protected by a fifth-rank master named Bao Chao!"

"Bao Chao was originally one of the elders of the Senluo Sect, a martial arts sect, and had been famous for over a decade. The Senluo Sect, in turn, had always served Han Guozhang as a lackey, earning them a terrible reputation within the martial arts world."

"But Bao Chao's martial arts skills are indeed formidable, known as the best in both sword and leg skills. Later, he was recommended by Han Guozhang to become Yang Jingye's retainer, protecting Yang Jingye's safety."

"If this man were to take action, no one in my Taiping Dao would be his match."

"I suggest you retreat to Juniu Township and hide in the mountains. After the situation has passed, we can continue to leave the mountains."

Upon hearing this, Liang Jin immediately entered Bao Chao's name on the panel.

Soon relevant information popped up:
[Target: Storm]

【Location: Taiyang County Government Office】

[Strength: Fifth Rank]

[Martial Arts: "Black Blade" (seventh level), "Senluo Leg" (eighth level), "Spirit Crane Step" (seventh level)]

Looking at the information, Liang Jin roughly knew that Bao Chao was indeed good at swordsmanship and leg techniques, and as for the "Spirit Crane Step", it was most likely a light skill.

Especially since Bao Chao is also in the county government office, then everything is correct.

A fifth-rank warrior is on a completely different level from warriors below the fifth rank.

The fifth rank is also a huge watershed among warriors.

When a warrior reaches the fifth level, he can release his internal strength externally.

As the saying goes, palm wind, fist strength, sword energy, knife energy, etc., use internal force to achieve the diversity and extension of attack and defense.

Therefore, warriors above the fifth rank can be considered true masters in the martial arts world.

"I also wanted to see how strong a fifth-grade master is."

"Don't worry, Huang Tian will punish these evil people." Liang Jin said gloomily.

Since the enemy is deliberately trying to harm him, Liang Jin will not let it go.

Liang Jin was indeed not completely confident about the fifth-grade master.

But Liang Jin is bound to kill Yang Jingye!

………………

County government.

Qiu Zhuo and Yang Jingye were still chatting.

Yang Jingye sat and drank tea, while Qiu Zhuo still stood aside and responded respectfully.

While chatting, Qiu Zhuo couldn't help but secretly glance at the middle-aged man behind Yang Jingye.

The middle-aged man had prominent temples and a restrained yet heavy aura.

He stood behind Yang Jingye, motionless, like a sculpture.

Whenever Qiu Zhuo got close to him, he always felt a chill in his heart.

This forced Qiu Zhuo to change his position, and he felt much more relaxed when he was farther away from the man.

Seeing this, Yang Jingye chuckled and said:

"Look at you, you're clueless, aren't you?"

"Mr. Bao is an elder of the Senluo Sect, a master of both swords and legs, and a fifth-rank expert!"

"You, a mere official, are so close to him that you will naturally be intimidated by his aura."

"A man's courage is nothing but force, power, and wealth."

"Once you are promoted and your power increases, your momentum will naturally grow."

"Then you can get close to Mr. Bao again so that you won't be affected by him."

Upon hearing this, Qiu Zhuo looked very educated and praised repeatedly.

At the same time, he did not forget to bow to Bao Chao.

Bao Chao still had no expression on his face, did not return the greeting, and completely ignored Qiu Zhuo.

But Qiu Zhuo didn't blame him.

The elder of Senluo Sect, a fifth-rank expert, with such status, really doesn't even take a small county magistrate like him seriously.

Even the elders of Senluo Sect were arranged to be with Yang Jingye, which shows how much Han Guozhang values ​​Yang Jingye.

Now with Yang Jingye's guarantee, Qiu Zhuo knew that his promotion was almost certain.

at this time.

Yang Jingye put down the ginseng tea in his hand and looked at the sky outside:
"According to the time, the Great Sage Master is already dead by now."

"There's only one seventh-rank warrior beside him, and he can't save his life at all."

"I can start my business now."

"Qiu Zhuo, I'll leave the task of comforting the people after the demon's death to you."

"If you do it well, the position of Qingzhou Tongpan is waiting for you."

Qiu Zhuo hurriedly nodded and thanked him.

Yang Jingye said that the Great Sage and Good Teacher was dead, so the Great Sage and Good Teacher must be dead.

Over the years, in the entire Qingzhou, whoever Yang Jingye wanted to kill could not live.

But Qiu Zhuo was also very clear that the death of the Great Sage Master would probably cause a shock among the people.

If you fail to appease the people and provoke a civil unrest, you will become a scapegoat.

Yang Jingye makes money, Qiu Zhuo has to take the blame.

But Qiu Zhuo did not feel unwilling.

After all, wealth and honor are achieved through risk. If you are afraid of taking risks when working for these big shots, then you will never get promoted in your life.

He just sighed, it was such a pity that the great and virtuous teacher died like this...

Yang Jingye slowly stood up with the help of two maids:

"Okay, now it's time to go..."

Before he could finish his words, heavy rain suddenly fell from the sky.

Wow!
In the small courtyard in front of the study, the flowers and plants were all hit by raindrops and could not raise their heads.

Yang Jingye laughed:
"It seems that God took pity on me because I'm too old, so he sent down a heavy rain before I went out to prevent my old bones from getting soaked."

Qiu Zhuo hurriedly wanted to flatter him.

suddenly!

Qiu Zhuo only felt a flash before his eyes, as if something was moving quickly past his ears.

When he looked carefully, he saw that Bao Chao, who had been silent all the time, was now protecting Yang Jingye.

Bao Chao's face was gloomy and he said coldly:
"Someone has sneaked into the government office and is approaching here."

"They carry murderous intent!"
