When ordinary people see a murderer, they would be scared out of their wits and try to find a way to escape. However, a little woman like Ye Tang kicked the murderer away and even knocked down the wall.

Everyone present looked at Ye Tang with admiration.

After a brief surprise, Tao Quan went to the ruins and ordered people to dig out the murderer.

The person was not dead, but was covered in blood and fainted.

"He's so lucky!" Tao Quan snorted coldly and ordered his men to tie up the murderer.

He came in front of Ye Tang and Xiao Jingxuan.

"Thank you both for your help just now."

Just as Ye Tang was about to speak, Xiao Jingxuan patted her hand gently and bowed to Tao Quan, saying, "Your Excellency is too polite. The murderer has committed many evil deeds. As citizens of Chashu Town, my husband and I must share the worries of the government. Only by catching this man can there be peace in this town."

The common people, constables, and hangers-on nearby all exclaimed in admiration.

"Little brother, what you said is very good, and you are really brave."

Tao Quan looked at Jamel Xiao deeply and said, "You are quite good at talking."

The woman behind Ye Tang saw that the time was almost right, so she stepped forward and knelt down in front of Tao Quan: "Sir, please make the decision for me!"

"What are you doing?" Tao Quan said, "If you have anything to say, get up and talk."

The woman cried and complained, "I am Wu Xiu, the wife of Lin Qing from Erlu Village. Today, I took my daughter to the town to sell vegetables. On the way home, I met Feng Tianbao's carriage. Feng Tianbao was leading a big black dog at the time. The black dog rushed over and barked when it saw my daughter. My daughter was frightened and picked up stones to throw at the dog. Feng Tianbao let the vicious dog go in anger, allowing the vicious dog to pounce on and bite my daughter. I wanted to save my daughter, but was pinned to the ground by Feng Tianbao's guards. I watched my daughter scream in pain in the mouth of the vicious dog... If you two kind people hadn't passed by and saved us mother and daughter, we would have died now! If you don't believe me, you can go to the clinic to take a look at my daughter. She is still lying in the clinic unconscious..."

After Wu Xiu finished speaking with all this in one breath, she could no longer hold back and burst into tears: "Please, sir, please help me!"

"How can this be? Who is Feng Tianbao? How dare he let the dog out to commit murder?" Tao Quan was furious. "For something like this, you should go to the government office to complain. Why are you looking for me?"

Wu Xiu choked up, and before she could explain, Ye Tang came over and spoke.

"Sir, you don't know that Feng Tianbao is not an ordinary person. He is the brother-in-law of the county magistrate."

"Feng Tianbao relied on the support of the county magistrate to oppress the people."

"This isn't the first time he's let his dog do this kind of thing!"

"His dog is called Black Overlord, and he is more vicious than a wolf."

"Wu Xiu's daughter's leg was nearly bitten off by the Black Overlord."

Ye Tang said this with a look of grief and indignation: "Sir, I am also going to sue Feng Tianbao. My father and brother sell stewed food in town. Feng Tianbao took a fancy to them because of their unique taste. When Feng Tianbao failed to force me to buy the secret recipe, he repeatedly sent people to cause trouble for my family, stopped our car, robbed it, and beat my father and brother."

Tao Quan frowned slightly: "Zhu County Magistrate's brother-in-law?"

How could the brother-in-law of a small local official be so arrogant?

Wu Xiu looked sad: "I dare not report to the government. Once I enter the government office, I am afraid..."

Tao Quan understood her concerns, asked her to get up first, and said, "Take me to see your daughter."

This is about interfering in Feng Tianbao's affairs.

Wu Xiu's face lit up with joy, and he immediately led the way.

Tao Quan sent five constables to escort the murderer to the county government office, and he took the remaining constables to the clinic. These constables were brought by him from the government office and would not reveal what happened today to County Magistrate Zhu.

The hangers-on dispersed one after another. The murderer had been caught and there was nothing left for them to do. They just had to go back and wait for the reward from the government.

As for Feng Tianbao's matter, they dared not inform him. Lord Tao was the prefect's man, and the new official had three things to do upon taking office. The prefect had already set his sights on Wutong County. Feng Tianbao dared to commit a crime at such a critical time. He was simply courting death.

Seeing Tao Quan and Wu Xiu leading their men to the clinic, some brave people were moved and followed them.

The old doctor paced back and forth in the clinic, feeling worried but also a little expectant.

The moment he saw Wu Xiu, Ye Tang, and Xiao Jingxuan bringing Tao Quan in, his old eyes instantly lit up.

"Your Highness, I am honored to meet you!" The old doctor stepped forward in panic.

"No need to be polite, where is the child?"

The old doctor immediately led the way.

The moment he saw Honghong, Tao Quan became even angrier.

"Damn Feng Tianbao, he actually injured a four-year-old kid like this, he is simply insane!" Tao Quan called two constables to carry the body of the vicious dog.

Before leaving for work, the two constables came over to take a look at Honghong and were all shocked by her injuries.

"Sir, we must never let this damn Feng Tianbao go!" a constable said indignantly.

Tao Quan said coldly: "This is natural."

Xiao Jingxuan came over and said, "Master Tao, there are countless people in Wutong County who have been bullied by Feng Tianbao. County Magistrate Zhu was partial to Feng Tianbao and not only did he not stand up for the victims, he also helped the tyrant to commit atrocities, leaving us with no way to seek justice."

The old doctor also came over and knelt down and said, "Sir, my granddaughter was also forced to death by Feng Tianbao. I beg you to make a decision for me!"

"This is outrageous!" Tao Quan was so angry that he clenched the sword in his hand. "Feng Tianbao, County Magistrate Zhu, you are really lawless. I know about your grievances. Don't worry, I will report this to the prefect and find out the truth. If what you said is true, the prefect will give you justice."

Half an hour later, the two constables carried back the body of the vicious dog at the fastest speed.

Among the onlookers, several people recognized the dog.

"It really is Feng Tianbao's dog, Black Overlord. It's really dead. What a good death!"

"I went to the county town to do some work and was bitten by this dog. Feng Tianbao not only refused to compensate me, but also called me lowly and said I had fouled the mouth of the vicious dog and asked me to pay money."

"..."

Tao Quan listened to all the people's words. He glanced at Ye Tang, Xiao Jingxuan, Wu Xiu, and the old doctor and said, "I am here to arrest the murderer under the order of the prefect. I should not be involved in other matters. However, Feng Tianbao's actions are really unscrupulous. You have reported him to me, so I will definitely take care of this matter."

"Captain Zhao, follow me immediately to arrest Feng Tianbao and bring him to the government office for interrogation."

After that, he said to Ye Tang and the others, "You guys should also follow me."

Tao Quan acted decisively and immediately took the detectives and the body of the vicious dog away. Ye Tang, Xiao Jingxuan, Wu Xiu and the old doctor carried Hong Hong onto the ox cart and drove the cart behind Tao Quan and his group.

Ye Tang felt that this matter was going too smoothly, and she couldn't help but glance at Xiao Jingxuan beside her.

Jamel Xiao lazily lay half-way on the ox cart, yawned loudly, found a comfortable position, closed his eyes and fell asleep.

Ye Tang frowned. Was she overthinking?

Tao Quan, who was riding in the front, looked back at the ox cart behind, and his eyes inadvertently glanced at Ye Tang's face.
