Time Travel: The Useless Prince, First Destroy the Princess

"Is there a token?" Song Fa frowned, still a little confused.

"No!" Liu Zhao answered simply.

"Well, that's all in vain! Speaking of relationships, Lord Ling of Song and I are from the same family. If we go back three hundred years, our ancestors are still the same!"

Song Fa breathed a sigh of relief.

"That's right!" Luan also breathed a sigh of relief. Without a token, all the relationships were meaningless!

As a constable, you can't survive without making some profits.

But to get benefits, one has to look at the person. If the person in front of him is really Song Xian’s relative, then there will be big trouble.

"So what if you don't believe me? We're just two constables!"

Liu Zhao sneered and stared at the two of them.

"Sir, don't say that we two don't believe it. When we get to the court, even if you bring up the virtuous Song Linggong, County Magistrate Wang won't believe it!"

Song Fa felt a little guilty when Liu Zhao looked at him.

"Who should I talk to then? Do you think I should just make one up?"

Liu Zhao sneered.

"Sir, that's not what we meant. It's just that Lord Song Ling is too high an official!"

"That's right, sir. Think carefully about it. Is there any official who is closer to you? You know that the Hucaoyuan is just a small official!"

"You mean you can kill a chicken without a butcher knife?"

"Yes, sir, that's what I mean!"

Lu An then added: "Since the young master is from a high-ranking family and a noble, a slightly higher-ranking official can subdue him! Duke Ling of Song is too powerful. The emperor is far away and the mountains are high. It will be useless!"

"After all this talk, I'd like to know what kind of official this Hu Cao Yuan is."

Liu Zhao continued to ask.

"In Hongnong County, the household registration, rituals, ancestral halls, agriculture, and everything else are under the jurisdiction of the Hucao Yuan. Although the position is not high, the power is great. Otherwise, Du Fang would not be so arrogant and domineering in Hongnong County!"

"Aren't you both employed by the same government office? It sounds like you two are dissatisfied with him as well!"

"Ha! In front of the Household Department, my two brothers are no better than a dog!" Song Fa laughed. "If you kill Young Master Du today, who among the people of Hongnong County wouldn't applaud?"

"Is the Du family so unpopular in Hongnong County?"

"You don't know this, but in Hongnong County, every daughter would be wary of Master Du."

"Why?"

Liu Zhao asked.

"My lord, you don't know this, but Du Fang is a playboy. He loves pretty girls, and he'll take any girl he likes back home!"

"Isn't this a beast?"

Liu Zhao cursed.

"That's right! Master Du must have taken a fancy to the young master's wife today!"

Lu An saw that Chu Lan was so beautiful, and the incident was most likely caused by her.

"That's right, so he's looking for death!"

Liu Zhao sneered.

"It's a good thing it's the young master. If it was someone else, I'm afraid he would have snatched her away by now!"

"Okay, then the county magistrate doesn't care?"

"A strong dragon cannot defeat a local snake, like County Magistrate Wang! Ahem, my brothers can't talk nonsense!" Song Fa coughed.

Liu Zhao smiled. Judging from the way these two detectives handled the case, this county magistrate would not be a good official!

So I don’t want to ask anymore.

Perhaps, as Liu Yan said to himself yesterday, some places can only be governed by corrupt officials.

"Here it is!"

Someone outside shouted, Liu Zhao looked up and saw more than ten people running towards him.

"It's bad, Du Hucao has brought people here personally!"

Song Fa cried out in surprise.

"Du Hu Cao?"

Liu Zhao looked over and saw a middle-aged man in a blue gown walking towards him, surrounded by more than ten people.

"What should we do?" Chu Lan's face turned pale.

"Don't worry! It's okay to follow!"

Liu Zhao frowned. He should have expected to be chased.

Could it be that the two constables did it on purpose?

Just as he thought of this, Song Fa and Lu An got up and ran out.

He bowed to the middle-aged man walking in front of him.

"Cao Hu, the person is fine here! We are just about to take him to the county government office. There is no need to trouble you!" Song Fa pointed at Liu Zhao who was sitting inside.

Oh my god!

These two constables are really good at adapting to changing circumstances.

"Humph!"

Du Ming didn't even look at it, just snorted and walked straight into the tea stall.

The tea stall was originally very small, so only Du Ming came up, and the rest of the people surrounded the entire tea stall.

When the waiter at the tea stall saw this situation, he didn't know where to hide!

"Who the hell are you?"

Du Ming stood at the door and stared at Liu Zhao.

In this era, becoming an official almost depends on family background. Even if one's family background is not high, those who can participate in the recommendation are all from wealthy families.

In Luojing City, there are no less than 100,000 children from wealthy families, and countless wealthy families.

Liu Zhao's appearance and clothes didn't look like those of a poor family, so Du Ming was not sure who Liu Zhao was!

It is sad that my son died, but I have more than one son.

If you are not sure of the other party's background, it is too risky to use force rashly.

If you offend someone you shouldn't offend.

No matter if he was the son of a high-ranking official of the imperial court or a prince or noble, he would be completely finished.

Looking at his expression, Liu Zhao immediately guessed that he was unsure of his identity and did not dare to resort to violence for the time being.

I felt relieved immediately!

He smiled slightly, picked up the teacup and took a sip.

Seeing that Liu Zhao didn't say anything, Du Ming frowned even more.

"If you don't reveal your identity, don't blame me for being rude!"

Du Ming was not sure whether Liu Zhao really looked as steady as a rock or was just pretending!

"You're welcome?" Liu Zhao stood up and glared at Du Ming. "You're just a mere household official, who do you think you are?"

Liu Zhao had a completely condescending attitude.

This is the aura!

This is the result of decades of experience!

"No matter who you are, you killed my son and you must pay with your life!"

Du Ming was indeed a little shocked. He could be so calm even after killing someone. His background must be extraordinary!

"Your son has committed countless evil deeds in Hongnong County, and anyone can punish him! Besides, I only slapped him, and it's his own fault that he died young. It has nothing to do with me!"

Liu Zhao said this with a hint of sarcasm on his lips.

You must not be cowardly at this time. If you are cowardly, you will be beaten to death by these people!

Even showing your gold medal may not be of any use!

Then he glanced at the scene outside. There were already a lot of people outside, and he didn't know if there was anyone inside to protect him.

There should be!

"Besides, your son has committed numerous evil deeds in Hongnong County. He deserves to be killed by anyone!"

"You allowed your son to commit murder, and how dare you bother me with trouble? Today, in front of the elders and villagers of Hongnong County, why don't you take this opportunity to commit suicide and atone for your sins?"

As Liu Zhao spoke, he walked towards Du Ming.

"you!"

Du Ming didn't know what to say for a moment?

There were applause and cheers all around.

Chu Lan looked at Liu Zhao with admiration, feeling extremely proud.

"See you in court!" Du Ming certainly knew his son's character, but this was in Hongnong County, who could do anything about it?

The person in front of me is young, but he has a strong aura. He must be from some important background. I really can't move around for the time being.

But, it is necessary to bring it to the yamen!

Let the county magistrate try the case!

After saying that, he turned around and walked out.
