Your Human Emperor Banner is already emitting evil spirits, and you're still pretending to be a

Then the two of them came to the government office together. Honglian's identity was a bit sensitive, and it was not convenient for her to show up outside, so she did not go in.

"Go by yourself. If they dare to come and cause trouble again, I will come forward to prove that you found these things."

According to Feng Yuzhi's personality, she will definitely not give up.

Xu Feng struck the official drum on the spot, and soon the yamen runners entered.

"Who has a grievance?"

"I don't have a grievance, but I want to report a crime. Could you take me to see the county magistrate?"

"Who are you?"

"I am Xu Feng, a successful candidate in this county."

When they heard that it was a Juren, the yamen runners spoke in a much more polite tone. Juren was an official and did not need to kneel before any other officials except the emperor.

"Please wait in the hall. The Master will be here shortly."

Almost an incense stick of time passed before the county magistrate finally arrived.

"Who is this man in the hall? What case do you want to report to this county? Please come quickly."

It is estimated that the yamen runners had reported this before coming here, otherwise Zhao Qingyun would not be so polite. How could he not be angry when his rest was disturbed in such hot weather?

"Lord Zhao, the imperial court recently lost a batch of gold. Later investigations revealed that it was stolen by barbarians. I stumbled upon them while traveling, and I have now killed them. The stolen gold must be returned to the imperial court."

Hearing this, Zhao Qingyun, who was originally leaning nonchalantly in his chair, suddenly widened his eyes.

He has also been troubled by this matter recently. People from the Six Gates have come to him one after another to ask him to assist in the investigation, insisting that the group of barbarians had fled to Gusu.

This involves military expenditures, and if this matter is not handled properly, his political career will come to an end.

But I never thought that someone would bring me such a big surprise. The thing was found just like that. I didn't need to be punished, but it was a great achievement.

"Well, have you brought the gold? Where is the head?"

“Everything is here.”

Zhao Qingyun personally opened the box and took a look. Sure enough, he found that the box was full of gold with the imperial seal, and the barbarian features on several heads were also very obvious.

Men all have the habit of wearing small braids of varying sizes, and their noses are relatively high, and their eyes are not the normal black, but have a hint of light yellow.

There was no problem with the gold and the head, and Zhao Qingyun's attitude immediately became friendly.

"Well, you are worthy of being a scholar in our dynasty. With such merits, one day you will surely become a general or a prime minister."

"Your Excellency is too kind. This is what I should do."

After so many years of struggling in society, Xu Feng can still speak nice words. If it were his predecessor, he probably wouldn't know how to respond at this time.

Just as Zhao Qingyun was holding Xu Feng's hand and about to chat, someone outside the door struck the official drum again.

Xu Feng's face looked grim. He turned around and saw that his guess was right. Feng Yuzhi and Zuo Jincheng came together. The two of them still did not intend to give up.

"Please wait a moment, my lord. There is something fishy going on here."

"Oh? Who are you two? What's going on? Tell me in detail!"

Zhao Qingyun frowned and returned to the lobby to sit down under the mirror.

"So that the Lord may know, I am at Zuojincheng, and the person next to me is Xu Fengzhi's wife, Feng Yuzhi."

"These gold and heads were not obtained by Xu Feng. I just temporarily stored them at the Feng family. I never expected him to steal them and claim the credit. I hope your Excellency will understand."

Sakonjo spoke with certainty, as if this was really his thing.

Feng Yuzhi naturally stood on his side and spoke for him.

"My Lord, I can testify that this was indeed not obtained by Xu Feng. My Lord, you are very discerning and should not be deceived by such a villain."

Zhao Qingyun became more and more confused. Since Feng Yuzhi was Xu Feng's wife, why would she stand on Zuo Jincheng's side to speak for him? At this moment, a yamen runner next to him came forward and whispered to him.

"Sir, Feng Yuzhi is the eldest daughter of the Feng family, and this Xu Feng is the son-in-law of the Feng family."

After learning about this, Zhao Qingyun no longer looked at Xu Feng with as much seriousness as before.

There is no such thing as a scholar who would marry into someone else's family.

"You keep saying this belongs to Sakonjo, but you have proof. You can't just claim to have taken the credit for it."

He has compromised too many times, and he will no longer have any involvement with the Feng family. This time, Xu Feng will never back down.

But he didn't expect that Zuo Kuncheng was actually prepared.

"Of course there are. I've been tracking down this group of people who were buried alive. Not long ago, they happened to pass by Jianfeng Mountain, and I led my men to ambush and capture them. If I remember correctly, one of their heads was hit by a sword near the ear."

Zhao Qingyun sent a yamen runner to verify and found sword marks on one of the heads.

The situation was at a stalemate. The sword mark was not actually left by Zuo Kuncheng. He was indeed tracking the whereabouts of this group of barbarians, but he had no results. Not long ago, the barbarians had a conflict with a escort agency on the road and were slashed by a sword. Zuo Kuncheng heard about this from others and took a gamble.

"Hmph, you're just a weak scholar, how could you possibly have such great abilities? Do you think these barbarians are so easy to kill? If you can take them down without any effort, how could anyone believe your lies?"

Feng Yuzhi started to mock him on the spot, and Zuo Jincheng's mouth was not idle either. He looked at Xu Feng with a smile, as if to say, what can you do to me?

"How come I've never heard of your powerful martial arts? I'm afraid you're crazy about becoming an official."

With the evidence provided by Feng Yuzhi and Zuo Jincheng, Zhao Qingyun no longer believed Xu Feng. It did sound unbelievable that a scholar who was barely able to tie a chicken killed several barbarians.

"You two have a point. Xu Feng, do you have any other explanation? If not, I will punish you."

Zhao Qingyun slammed the gavel and glared at Xu Feng.

"Wait a minute, sir. I personally witnessed that it was Master Xu who killed these barbarians. Their bodies are nearby. If necessary, I can take you there to verify it at any time."

"As for who is claiming the credit, it will be clear to us. I just don't know if you two have the ability to produce a few corpses."

At the critical moment, Honglian appeared again to testify for Xu Feng. She had been standing by his side and had not left. Seeing that Xu Feng was at a disadvantage, she naturally had to take action.

Seeing the red-faced man walking towards him step by step, Zuo Jincheng felt like he had seen a ghost, and he couldn't say a word. Feng Yuzhi didn't expect that Xu Feng still had this trump card in his hand.

Suddenly I didn't dare to say anything more.

"Sir, I'm afraid there's some misunderstanding in this matter. Please give me some time to investigate."

Seeing that Zuo Jincheng chose to give up at the critical moment, Feng Yuzhi couldn't believe it.

She felt that she could still do some more to persuade Xu Feng. As long as she could convince him to give up, the credit would still go to Zuo Jincheng.

However, he never expected that after the county magistrate nodded, Zuo Jincheng turned around and left without looking back, without saying a word.
