I have been a county magistrate for ten years. My subordinates insist on giving me a yellow robe.

Chen Liu's face was troubled for a long time, and he whispered: "How about we try again? What if it works?"

"No, should I listen to you or me?" Jiang Yuan said with a dark face.

Chen Liu looked at Jiang Yuan helplessly: "This is not a question of who to listen to. The key is that if there is any problem with your method, the responsibility will be huge."

"No problem. Do you want to save your young master's life or avoid any trouble? I don't care anyway." Jiang Yuan said calmly.

When this was mentioned, Chen Liu suddenly wilted.

The people are certainly important, but it depends on who you compare them with. Duanmu Yuanchen is the crown prince of the Eastern Palace after all, and there is no comparison with these few people.

After figuring this out, Chen Liu no longer hesitated and nodded immediately: "Okay, I'll do as you say! But I have to make it clear that we can't make a big fuss."

"Go away." Jiang Yuan waved his hand nonchalantly.

If you don't make a big fuss, how can you fish in troubled waters?

"Everyone come here, I will explain your tasks."

As soon as Jiang Yuan finished speaking, a group of people immediately surrounded him, and a moment later.

Qin Tianzhu's eyes lit up, and he couldn't help but give a thumbs up: "Your Excellency is great! In this way, who would dare to touch us!"

"But I think we should find more people. Maybe we can fight back then."

Chen Liu didn't even think twice before slapping him in the face. "You're just giving me bad advice! Are you planning to sacrifice the lives of ordinary people? Are you still a human being?"

Jiang Yuan patted Qin Tianzhu's shoulder and sighed: "It's a good thing you weren't a capitalist in your previous life."

"But remember, just be a thug. You won't be needed for any brain work."

Since the city gate had not been opened yet, the group could only find a place to rest under the city wall temporarily.

It was not until the fifth watch that the city gate opened and the group of people finally entered the city.

They randomly found an inn and ordered two large tables of food. After eating, they went upstairs to rest, as they had a lot of things to do next.

Several people slept with their heads covered until noon, when Jiang Yuan yawned and stood up from the bed.

"Wang Gang, go call Lao Wei and the others out. Our operation is about to begin."

"Okay, sir." Wang Gang responded and went out to call people.

Jiang Yuan took a sip of water and when he opened the door, Chen Liu and the other man were already standing outside.

"Let's go."

The four of them walked out of the room one after another. Jiang Yuan strolled on the street and finally found a coffin shop at the end of the street.

"Old Jiang, why did you bring us here?" Duanmu Yuanchen looked at Jiang Yuan curiously.

I've heard of people shopping and visiting temples, but I've never seen anyone visiting a coffin shop.

"It's okay, just strolling around." Jiang Yuan said casually, and then stepped into the coffin shop.

As the two were talking, an old man came out of the coffin shop with a bent back.

"How many of you? Is there anything I can help you with?"

Jiang Yuan nodded: "I want a coffin."

The old man sighed and said soothingly, "My condolences. May I ask which relative of yours has passed away? How tall and wide is he?"

"Are there any requirements for wood?"

Jiang Yuan smacked his lips and said, "Except for my father who I don't know whether he is dead or alive, I'm a classic orphan. I don't have any relatives at all."

"Wang Chen, do you have any requests?"

When these words were spoken, Duanmu Yuanchen and the old man in the coffin shop were both stunned.

What's going on? Why are you asking me about buying a coffin?

"No, Lao Jiang, what do you mean?"

"I haven't offended you. There's no need to bury me alive, right?" Duanmu Yuanchen swallowed and looked at Jiang Yuan nervously.

The old man in the coffin shop also looked at Jiang Yuan suspiciously: "Sir, are you really ordering a coffin for that young man?"

"That's right, it's ordered for him. Boss, go and measure his body quickly." Jiang Yuan said without hesitation.

"What?!" Duanmu Yuanchen screamed, pointing at Jiang Yuan angrily: "Old Jiang! You are so unkind! It's okay to harm others, but why can't you even shine on your own people?"

"I haven't offended you, yet you want to bury me alive. Do you think you are still a human being?"

Jiang Yuan looked at Chen Liu in surprise: "What's going on? Didn't you explain it to him clearly?"

"This... I forgot about it because I was busy." Chen Liu scratched his head and said embarrassedly.

As he said that, Chen Liu quickly pulled Duanmu Yuanchen aside. After a burst of attack, Duanmu Yuanchen ran over happily.

"That's right! Boss, come over here and measure me, and make me a coffin quickly!"

The old man in the coffin shop was shocked and looked at them in confusion.

What the hell is going on?

A healthy and living person is really being made into a coffin. Isn't this cursing the person to death?

Also, why are you so fucking happy?

"Young man, I see you are still young and don't need this thing. It's too early to prepare it now." The old man wiped the sweat from his forehead.

Duanmu Yuanchen quickly waved his hand: "It's not too early, I need it today anyway."

"What the hell?!" the old man in the coffin shop screamed and looked at Duanmu Yuanchen with trembling legs.

This man was no more than twenty years old, and had a rosy complexion. He definitely didn't look like someone who was seriously ill and would suddenly die.

I can’t be possessed by evil spirits today, right?

"Boss, don't just stand there, get started quickly." Jiang Yuan urged from the side.

"Forget it, there's no need to measure. You have some in your store. We can just pick one ourselves." Jiang Yuan said, turning and walking towards the several coffins that had already been made in the store.

"Come and see if there's anything you like."

Duanmu Yuanchen immediately ran over, and after some banging around, he chose the largest coffin.

I am the Crown Prince of the Eastern Palace, the future emperor. It’s not too much to ask for the biggest one, right?

"Okay, this is it, boss, how much is it?"

"Here, just give me ten taels of silver." The coffin shop owner looked at them speechlessly.

I just can’t understand why a 20-year-old young man is so anxious to get a coffin?

You said you would use it today, I want to see how you actually use it!

"Okay, leave the things in your store first, and we'll come pick them up later."

After Jiang Yuan finished speaking, he turned around and left with a few people. He first went to a money shop to exchange several thousand taels of silver, loaded the money into the carriage, and went to buy some food and drinks.

"Okay, everything is ready, let's go."

The four of them came to a crossroads. It was evening, and this city was an important town not far from the imperial capital, so there were a lot of people coming and going.

The four of them stood there for a while when a group of strong men suddenly came towards them. They were Qin Tianzhu and Ershazi and a few others.

"Get rid of them! Who the hell asked you to stand in front of me? You're getting in my way!" Qin Tianzhu shouted, and the people around him immediately looked over.

Jiang Yuan was shocked and said timidly, "Sir, we are just walking on the street normally. Is there anything wrong with this?"

"I don't care anyway. I'm annoyed just by seeing you. Someone, come on! Kill them for me!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the idiots behind him rushed out.

Seeing a group of strong men rushing towards them, Jiang Yuan and his four companions made a move to escape. However, before they had taken a few steps, Duanmu Yuanchen, who was running at the end, suddenly screamed, covered his chest with his hands, and blood gushed out.

Jiang Yuan turned around quickly upon hearing the sound, and pointed at Duanmu Yuanchen with trembling hands: "Kill...kill!"
