Chapter 414: Hunting down Zheng Ziying and confronting the Imperial Guards in the street

Shu He chased in the direction Zheng Ziying fled until he reached the downtown area.

Zheng Ziying is a famous playboy in the East. The owners of all the stores recognize him. After all, they have been bullied many times, so they have no choice but to recognize him even if they don't want to.

Seeing him stumbling over and knocking over several roadside stalls, all the owners frowned, their faces full of confusion.

What happened to this Third Young Master? Why was he so frightened?

"Help, help!"

Zheng Ziying was running, and Shu He was following behind with a sword in his hand. The sword was dripping with blood, and everyone on the street was stunned.

Is this woman hunting down the Third Young Master?

This is the East Market, next to it is Yong'an Street, and behind Yong'an Street is the Imperial City!

Someone actually used a knife to injure people in the street, and even chased after the son of the Duke's Mansion!

This is too courageous!

Zheng Ziying begged for help everywhere, but no one came forward to help. Everyone either watched indifferently or fled in fear. Some even stepped out of the way, exposing Zheng Ziying's whereabouts.

Shu He held a long sword and followed him coldly.

Zheng Ziying was caught up, his face full of fear, "Don't kill me, don't kill me!"

"I just killed a little medicine boy. Why are you so persistent? I have plenty of money. How much do you want? I'll give you everything. Isn't that enough?"

"Don't kill me! I beg you!"

While begging for mercy, he picked up the vendor's things and threw them at Shu He.

But all his actions were in vain. He couldn't hurt her or stop her.

She approached him step by step, and the cold sword light made his fear even stronger.

The several districts near the East Market are inhabited by dignitaries, so the defense and patrols here are stricter than those in the West Market.

At this time, a team of patrolling guards noticed something unusual from afar and quickly ran over to check.

Zheng Ziying saw the leader and crawled forward to ask for help, "Captain Liu! Captain Liu, someone wants to kill me! Save me!"

Liu Shouxin recognized Zheng Ziying. "The third son of the Duke's Mansion? Who are you?"

When he saw Shu He approaching from behind, his expression changed and he shouted, "You bold thief, how dare you commit murder in the street? Come on, arrest him!"

Shu He looked at the patrol coldly, "Sir, the real thief is right behind you, aren't you going to catch him?"

Liu Shouxin frowned and shouted angrily, "You said the Third Young Master is a thief? Do you know his identity?"

"Identity?" Shu He sneered, "Why, nowadays, the identity of a murderer is also considered?"

"Your so-called Third Young Master killed someone in West Market. Military Master, aren't you going to arrest the murderer?"

Liu Shouxin looked at Zheng Ziying, as if trying to verify the truth of his words.

Zheng Ziying's eyes rolled and he quickly denied it, "I didn't! I didn't kill anyone! I don't even know this woman!"

"Captain Liu, arrest her now! She killed my guards and the ministers of our palace. We must not let her go!"

Shu He snorted coldly, "You didn't kill anyone? You just admitted it yourself! The people here, the vendors, everyone heard you say you killed the medicine boy!"

"Isn't it too late to deny it now?"

With the Imperial Guards protecting him, Zheng Ziying felt more confident. A fierce expression crossed his face as he stared at the vendors and pedestrians in the East Market and asked, "Who heard me kill someone?"

"If you have the guts, come out and show up! I want to see who has such poor hearing that they could mishear something like this?!"

Although there were a lot of people watching, they were all ordinary people from the lower class. They knew that he was of noble status and had powerful forces behind him. Who would dare to offend him?

Therefore, when those people were swept by his sharp gaze, no one dared to look up and respond.

Seeing this, Shu He couldn't help but feel sad and sarcastic.

The status of a high-ranking official is really useful. Just one look can make people speechless.

"The people in East Market are too spineless to point fingers, but there are plenty of courageous people in West Market! You smashed a shop and killed people in the street, and the whole street saw it! Zheng Ziying, do you really think the 'Duke's Mansion' can silence everyone?"

"you!!"

Zheng Ziying had a cold face and a hint of panic appeared on his face.

"He's just a medicine boy, so what? I have plenty of money, so I'll just compensate you! Why do you have to go against my government?"

"Liu Ruxin, think carefully! My father is the Duke of Zheng, my cousin is the prince, and my aunt is the queen. Do you really want to fight our Zheng family to the death?"

Shu He ignored his threats and looked at Liu Shouxin, his lips curled up. "Master Jun, did you hear that? He has already admitted to the murder himself. Do you still want to stop me?"

She pointed her sword at Zheng Ziying and said coldly, "If you owe money, pay it back. If you kill someone, pay with your life!"

Zheng Ziying was frightened by the murderous look in her eyes and shrank his neck again, but when he saw the imperial guards, his confidence inexplicably swelled again.

He pointed at Shu He with an impatient look on his face, "You woman, why can't I make sense to you?"

"What is my status? And what is the status of that medicine boy? Is his worthless life worth paying for with my own? Does he deserve it?"

Shu He's eyes were filled with indifference, his face full of sarcasm. "What about the medicine boy? What about the young master of the Duke's Mansion? They are all human lives. Who says your life is more valuable than his gold?"

"Zheng Ziying, you can't leave today!"

Liu Shouxin looked embarrassed. He had never expected that Zheng Ziying would actually kill someone again, in public.

This is going to be difficult!

"No matter what, young lady, this is Kyoto, not Jianghu. Anyone who commits a crime will be punished by law!"

"Even if Master Zheng has committed a crime, he should be handed over to the government for conviction and judgment!"

"A ruling from the government? Hahaha!" She seemed to have heard something funny and couldn't help laughing. "General, do you really think that if he goes to the government, he will receive the punishment he deserves?"

Liu Shouxin was about to speak, but she interrupted him, "If he really could, he wouldn't be walking around Kyoto so brazenly today and killing someone in the street!"

"Isn't what happened at the Junlai Restaurant half a year ago enough to sentence someone to death?!"

Upon hearing this, the people's faces changed. There was indignation, disappointment, and numbness towards the system.

Half a year ago, Zheng Ziying had a conflict with several foreign businessmen at Junlai Restaurant. Just because those foreign businessmen did not know his identity and cursed him a few times, he ordered his men to kill all those foreign businessmen!

Because the matter was too serious, one of the foreign businessmen was the distant nephew of Ge Sannian, the local number one imperial businessman, so the matter became quite serious.

So, Zheng Ziying was indeed arrested at that time, but he was released only two months later.

In the end, the murderer of Junlai Restaurant turned out to be a street thug and was beheaded in public...

"Everyone in Kyoto knows about this, but everyone is afraid of the power behind him, so no one dares to speak out!"

Even Ge Sannian finally reached some kind of cooperation agreement with the Zheng family and let the matter go.

Even the number one imperial merchant in Kyoto is powerless against power, so what can ordinary people like them do to him?

"Master Jun, do you want this to happen again?"

"Are you, the Imperial Guard, protecting the people of Kyoto or the noble families of Kyoto?"

Liu Shouxin was left speechless, his face turning alternately blue and purple.

What's the difference between this and accusing the Royal Guards of being lackeys of the nobles?

The key point is that what happened at Junlai Restaurant half a year ago was a fact known to everyone, and he had nothing to say.

Shu He held the sword and took two steps closer to Zheng Ziying.

Zheng Ziying was so scared that he hugged Liu Shouxin's arm and said, "Captain Liu, you can't just ignore me! No matter what I did, it's the Dali Temple's business!"

A look of embarrassment flashed across Liu Shouxin's face. He then tightened the sword in his hand and took a step forward. "No matter what, Kyoto is not the place for you to take revenge!"

"If you really want justice, you can go to the government..."

"Isn't this Captain Liu from the Cavalry Battalion? What happened?"

A faint laugh suddenly came from behind the crowd, which made Liu Shouxin's face change instantly.
