Being an emperor is not something he can do, so he can only rely on his connections.

Zhang Jingwei felt very uncomfortable listening to the ridicule. He said, "Master Tongpan, what brings you here?"

"I've come here today to tell Young Master Zhang not to think that just because you used some kind of magic to rescue Zhu Banshan, you can pose a threat to me!"

"The Marquis will return with his army tomorrow. You, a stray dog, should just give it a try. Let's see whether your Taishan will help you or me."

Zhang Jingwei must have known about the humiliation he suffered at the Huangfu family, as he clenched his teeth and his fists made crackling sounds.

Zhang Liu glanced out the window and saw that the yamen runners with knives and sticks had surrounded the clinic. He believed that if anything happened to Wang Huang, they would all be chopped into meat paste.

So he hurried forward and controlled the few people who wanted to take action.

"Lu Hui has withdrawn all his spies, and they are also afraid."

Wang Huang was still spouting trash talk.

"I see you have some ability. If you kneel down and kowtow to me three times, I will drop this matter and I will also speak well of you to the Marquis."

Zhang Jingwei suddenly raised his head and laughed out loud, and everyone was so scared that they stood there for a few seconds.

"Why are you laughing?"

"I'm laughing at you. If you're a dog, you can only be a Chihuahua, barking and snarling, with no intimidation at all."

Wang Huang was furious: "Ji, Ji what's the matter...you actually called me a dog again!"

"You're worthy? You've even read the books of sages. As a local official, you don't serve the people, but you're willing to take human lives for the sake of your pocket money. In my opinion, you're worse than an animal!"

"You, how dare you..."

Wang Huang's face flushed red, he pointed at Zhang Jingwei and wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Zhang Jingwei.

"You brat! How dare you make a sound? I don't think your parents are good people for giving birth to a piece of shit like you."

"You are eating the emperor's salary, yet you are committing a treasonous act. Do you think you deserve it?"

"You are such an unfaithful and unfilial thing. Saying two more words about you is simply a waste of my time."

"How dare you listen here? I've never seen anyone so shameless! Ugh... you shameless dog!"

During the past few years following Master Li, I have learned a lot of skills, including the ability to scold people, and I have also been scolded a lot.

The ultimate secret of swearing is that when you swear at someone, never let the other person talk back, otherwise it will turn into a quarrel.

Wang Huang's chest heaved and his face turned purple as he was scolded.

He fumbled around his waist for a long time, pulled out a dagger and rushed towards Zhang Jingwei.

"I'll kill you, little bastard!"

Mu Tou flew forward, raised his foot, and kicked the out-of-control Wang Huang to the ground.

Then he picked up the dagger that fell on the ground and held it across Wang Huang's neck.

The yamen runners who heard the noise kept rushing in.

Zhang Jingwei and others were surrounded, and Wang Huang was taken hostage, and the situation was deadlocked.

Some people who had never seen such a scene were so scared that they dropped the knives in their hands.

These yamen runners were no better than the quick hands and catchers in the police station. They were all untrained and received the lowest salary in the government office, but they did all kinds of hard work for the officials like oxen and horses.

The doctors in the clinic were frightened and immediately went to the street to inform the police. After a stalemate of about a quarter of an hour, Captain Yang rushed to the clinic with his men.

"Stop! Stop it all!"

Captain Yang shouted loudly, and the yamen runners put down their weapons one after another.

Mu Tou also let go of Wang Huang, who was about to faint.

"Kidnapping an official is a capital offense! Captain Yang, arrest them now!"

Captain Yang bowed and said, "Zhang Jingwei and the others are here guarding Zhu Banshan under the orders of the prefect. The magistrate has trespassed into the restricted area without permission, and I am at a loss to explain why."

Wang Huang spat out a mouthful of blood, probably because of the kick that caused internal injuries.

"You, you... Yang Chao! You are just a small constable, how dare you..."

Captain Yang lowered his head and bowed, saying, "Please, sir, please leave immediately and don't embarrass me."

Wang Huang gnashed his teeth in anger: "Okay, okay, just wait for me!"

After saying that, he shook his sleeves and left with the trash.

Zhang Jingwei stepped forward and asked, "Captain Yang, is this your teacher's instruction to help me?"

Captain Yang said with a smile: "The masters have given us orders, and we, the officers, just obey!"

Zhang Jingwei took out a piece of silver from his waist as tea money for Captain Yang and his men.

Captain Yang also took it with a smile and put it into his sleeve.

"Young Master Zhang is so generous, we brothers won't bother you anymore!"

"Thank you very much, Captain Yang." Zhang Jingwei said.

After Captain Yang left, Zhang Jingwei turned to look at the others and said in a deep voice, "Everyone, pack up and prepare to move."

"Why do we need to move? Isn't it safe here?" someone asked puzzledly.

Zhang Jingwei explained, "Wang Huang won't give up. He will definitely lead his men back. We can't just sit there and wait for death."

After hearing this, everyone started to pack up their things.

Zhang Jingwei wondered in his heart what to do next.

He decided to contact Liu Yanzhi first to see if there were other suitable places to stay.

……

Liu Yanzhi was wandering around in the Tongzhifu, while Zhang Jingwei was sitting on a chair waiting for his teacher's reply.

Liu Yanzhi said, "You're really too impulsive. Wang Huang is a very petty person, and you're a nobody. You really shouldn't have angered him."

Zhang Jingwei said: "We are now ready to transfer and the teachers can find a suitable place to stay."

"Wang Huang has connections all over Yunzhou City. He's not safe anywhere, unless... the Marquis' Mansion."

"Teacher, you know about the feud between me and Miss Huangfu. How can I have the nerve to bring this up?"

Liu Yanzhi patted Zhang Jingwei on the head and said earnestly, "You and she are husband and wife. The daughter of the Northern Marquis is truly courageous. Put away your stubborn heart, and everything will work out."

"Teacher, are you...?"

The hand on Zhang Jingwei's shoulder pressed hard again.

"Be patient and don't be impatient. In matters between the government and the people, one should not act impulsively or arbitrarily."

……

In the end, Zhang Jingwei listened to his teacher, returned to the clinic, and led everyone to the Huangfu family.

Mu Tou carried Zhu Banshan on his back, Liang Dahai took the medicine from the clinic, and Zhang Liu and Zhang Shiyi went to the Huangfu family first to report.

Wang Ergou and Liu Guanjin were holding a pile of miscellaneous items, including mahjong and the map that was to be marked.

It was already night, and every household had their doors closed, but the lights were still on in Huangfu's house.

Huangfu Ling was already waiting outside the door, and more than twenty servants and maids were also standing there in a row. Zhang Jingwei couldn't understand what was going on.

"Welcome back home, Master!"

The shouting was so loud that you could hear it even from two blocks away.

He subconsciously looked into the darkness, and suddenly several dark shadows jumped out.

Suddenly I understood that this was to protect them.

When he arrived at the door, Zhang Jingwei looked at Huangfu Ling embarrassedly, not knowing how to start.

In the end, it was Huangfu Ling who broke the awkward atmosphere.

"I roughly know what's going on. The Marquis' Mansion can guarantee your safety."

"But... you have to live in the East Courtyard, and the others will live in the Wood Courtyard."

Zhang Liu was delighted. The East Courtyard was where the young master lived before, which showed that Miss Huangfu still had feelings for my young master.

Zhang Jingwei agreed: "Yes...but their safety must be guaranteed."

"Don't worry, this is the safest place in Yunzhou City."

Huangfu Ling's tone was firm.

In this way, Zhang Jingwei and his party settled down in the Huangfu family.
