The Young and Vigorous Eighth Prince

After Jiang Fan showed his identity token, the soldiers guarding the city came back to their senses and quickly opened the city gate. After Jiang Fan and his thousand men entered the city, they rushed to the county government office.

Xia Qianxing, the magistrate of Huaining County, was woken up early in the morning and was a little grouchy. He also received an imperial edict from the capital, asking him to do his best to help the Eighth Prince with disaster relief.

He had neither good nor bad feelings towards Jiang Fan, the rumored good-for-nothing prince. He did not depend on any prince, nor did he want to depend on any prince, so he seldom paid attention to the affairs of the royal family.

However, he felt a little contempt for Jiang Fan, the Eighth Prince, and a little anger at the court's actions.

How could he not be angry when they treated the disaster and the lives of the people as a joke and even used disaster relief as a gamble?

Therefore, when Jiang Fan appeared at the county government office waiting for him, there was not even any official waiting for him. The Huaining County Magistrate even left Jiang Fan and others alone for half an hour before finally arriving.

As soon as the group entered the door, Xia Qianxing looked at Jiang Fan with a cold face, as if Jiang Fan owed him hundreds of thousands of dollars.

Several officials who came with him also had cold faces, and even looked at him with a hint of contempt.

Xia Qianxing thought that Jiang Fan was just here to cause trouble, so he didn't treat Jiang Fan well. As for the other officials, they just didn't take Jiang Fan seriously because he was the good-for-nothing eighth prince.

Seeing their expressions, Chu Chengxiong raised his eyebrows slightly and whispered in Jiang Fan's ear: "Old Eight, I want to beat someone up, what should I do!"

Chu Chengrui, who was standing by, also said coldly when he heard this.

"These guys seem to need some punishment. How about shaving their eyebrows and hair, and hanging them outside the county government office to let them enjoy the morning breeze?"

Jiang Fan nodded in agreement when he heard this. The three brothers had almost the same idea. They looked at each other and smiled maliciously.

They don't want to cause trouble, but they are not afraid of causing trouble. If they don't cause trouble when these people come to their doorstep, they will be sorry for themselves.

"I'm Xia Qianxing, your humble servant. I'm honored to meet His Royal Highness the Eighth Prince!" County Magistrate Xia Qianxing came closer and bowed to Jiang Fan calmly.

The others curled their lips and didn't even bother to show their respect. This arrogant attitude made the Chu brothers' eyebrows jump.

Jiang Fan looked at the officials with a hint of amusement on his lips. Huaining County was more difficult to deal with than he had imagined.

If these officials don't cooperate, he will be blocked everywhere. If he can't make them surrender today, it will be difficult for him to carry out his work in the future.

Moreover, he is a prince with high status and position. These guys are ignorant of the dangers, so why should he be polite to them?

Jiang Fan's eyes were slightly cold, and he said indifferently: "Xiao Qi, Lao Liu, fight for me..."

Upon hearing this, Xia Qianxing and other officials were stunned, their faces filled with astonishment.

They thought Jiang Fan was weak and incompetent, and was used to being bullied. After all, they were the backbone of Huaining County, and if the other party wanted to provide disaster relief, they would have to rely on them.

But who would have thought that this guy would just come up and beat someone up as soon as he had a disagreement. This is totally different from what I expected.

In fear, the officials wanted to speak. But Chu Chengxiong would never give them a chance. He had long disliked these people and was just waiting for Jiang Fan to say this.

"Well..."

He chuckled and rushed out. Chu Chengrui and the thirty or so white-robed guards around him also rushed over.

Before the nine officials could react, they were knocked to the ground and hit with fists and kicks, and their clothes flew everywhere.

The county lieutenant, county magistrate, chief clerk, captain of the police and others screamed miserably, and in the morning the county government office was suddenly filled with the sound of ghosts howling.

The people passing by outside looked at the county government office in astonishment, all with faces full of shock.

The accompanying recorder who was in charge of recording the gambling game looked at everything that was happening in front of him in astonishment. They looked at each other with a confused look on their faces.

They were sent by the Emperor of Yan to act as notaries. Jiang Fan's every move during the disaster relief in Huaining had to be reported. In addition to Jiang Fan, Chu Yan'er also had reports.

The four recorders could not have imagined that Jiang Fan would start beating people up. Although these people had a very bad attitude towards Jiang Fan and indeed deserved to be beaten, Jiang Fan never thought that if he offended these people, wasn't he afraid that his disaster relief work would be hindered?

Moreover, they were scholars and felt that this kind of thing was very degrading. This behavior really damaged the reputation of the prince.

But they had no right to interfere with Jiang Fan's actions.

He could only look at the officials who were beaten with pity and sympathy. There were so many people who could not be provoked by these people, but they had to provoke the young and energetic Eighth Prince.

This guy is really crazy now. Have you heard of the Jingzhao prefect? ​​He is still bruised and swollen, and seems to be imprisoned by the Emperor of Yan. Aren't they just trying to stimulate themselves?

Looking at the miserable state of the officials, they could hardly bear to watch. They felt a little relieved and a little compassionate.

These people are so miserable. Having bruised noses and swollen faces is a small matter. The key point is that I don’t know who shaved their hair and eyebrows.

Some had half of the sides shaved, some had the entire side shaved, it was a horrible sight.

It makes my teeth hurt just looking at it! A few people smiled helplessly, and finally decided to report truthfully.

"Stop hitting me... Stop hitting me... Your Highness, I know I was wrong..." At this time, someone in the crowd began to beg for mercy.

As the cry began, cries of begging for mercy began to emanate. Except for Xia Qianxing, who remained silent, all the other officials opened their mouths to beg for mercy.

Jiang Fan looked at the miserable people and said calmly, "Stop..."

Following his voice, the Chu brothers and a group of white-robed guards stopped reluctantly. The Chu brothers looked like they were still not satisfied.

The white-robed guards glared at the officials with an almost murderous look in their eyes.

Jiang Fan is the god in their hearts, but these people are so rude to their god.

They didn't beat him to death, because they didn't want to make things difficult for Jiang Fan. Otherwise, these guys would have torn him to pieces in a matter of minutes!

Jiang Fan looked at the officials with bruised faces and noses, and smiled faintly, "Can we talk properly now?"

Upon hearing this, all the officials nodded quickly.

"Yes...Yes! Your Highness, the Eighth Prince, please forgive me. It is we who are blind... blind..."

They no longer had the arrogance they had just now.

This legendary useless prince is not easy to mess with.

They were beaten up as soon as they came up and almost beaten to death. If they didn't talk nicely, they would probably lose their lives!

They only now face Jiang Fan squarely. He is a prince, and killing them would be in vain.

Jiang Fan looked at the well-behaved officials, stepped forward and patted one of them on the head, and said calmly:

"It would be best if you can talk nicely. I came to Huaining to provide disaster relief, and I don't want anyone to hold me back. Otherwise, don't blame me for being ruthless. Today's pain is just physical pain. If anyone dares to do something behind my back, I will... chop off his head."

At the end, his voice became heavier, and all the officials shuddered and said they dared not.

Who said that the eighth prince was useless? Damn, he uses both kindness and force, and is so powerful. It's obvious that he is not someone you want to mess with.

The officials felt the cold power of Jiang Fan and immediately gave up the idea of ​​humiliating him. Unless they didn't want to live, they had to stay in the desert.

"Hmph... that sounds very high-sounding, but I'm afraid it's just too ambitious and too incompetent to do it!"

Just as a group of officials were showing their loyalty with a smile, Xia Qianxing sat up from the ground, snorted coldly, and looked at Jiang Fan with disdain.
