"Old...Master, the chief envoy did not accept our money, but sent someone to return it intact!" After the housekeeper learned the news, he hurried over to report to Wen Pingyi.

"What? All the five thousand taels of silver were returned?" Wen Pingyi couldn't help but be surprised after hearing what the steward said.

"Yes, sir! According to the officials in the Governor's Mansion, the Chief Envoy seems to be very unhappy about this." The housekeeper looked around and saw that there was no one around, and then he dared to lower his voice and speak.

"Huh, it's right that he's unhappy. He obviously thinks he has too little money! These dog officials are really shameless. My Wen family gives them so much money every year, but it still can't satisfy their appetite.

Do you really think that my Wen family is easy to bully?"

"Since he sent the money back, there is no need to send it back. Let's take another way!"

After Wen Pingyi said this, he added this sentence to the housekeeper.

"Yes, sir! I'll handle this matter right away."

The butler finished answering and was about to go to the counter to withdraw money when he heard a burst of noise from outside.

"What's wrong? What happened?" Wen Pingyi was quite surprised by this. It had been a long time since anyone had dared to cause trouble in front of his Wen house.

"Sir, let me go and take a look." After the housekeeper said that, he walked straight to the door.

…

"Who are you? What do you want with so many people gathered in front of Wen's house?" The gatekeeper blocked the intruders from the door.

"I am Hai Rui, the magistrate of Chun'an County. I have just received an order from the Chief Envoy to arrest the murderer. Wen Rong, the youngest son of the Wen family, committed a murder on the street. Please accompany me!" Hai Rui said, coming behind him

The guards of the Governor's Palace appeared.

"Hmph, you, a small county magistrate, want to come to my Wen family to pick up someone? Even if the magistrate comes, you have to be polite! Hey, have you seen the open space next to it? Take your men and wait there.

Come on, maybe my master will be in a good mood and meet you again!"

After the gatekeeper learned that Hai Rui was just a county magistrate, he started to talk shamelessly.

"Leave it to me. Anyone who resists will be killed without mercy!" Hai Rui waved his hand violently. The guards of the Governor's Mansion behind him were like wolves seeing a fat sheep. They all pulled out their weapons from their waists and rushed towards them.

Go up.

"What are you doing? What are you doing? This is the Wen family! Ah!" A scream was heard, and the young man who was so brazen was struggling and his neck was wiped.

His face was full of disbelief, his pupils suddenly dilated, and then he tightly covered the incision in his throat with both hands, trying to slow down the flow of blood, but to no avail, and he made a "ho ho" sound from his mouth.

As the blood continued to gush out, he could no longer support his body and fell to the ground! The blood gradually accumulated under him into a small pool. Until the moment of death, he still kept his hands covering his throat.

posture.

"Kill people, kill people!"

Those people had never seen such a scene before, and they were all frightened and began to scream regardless.

"Quiet, sir! If you dare to shout again, this will be your fate."

Hai Rui glanced at everyone coldly, then stepped over the boy's body and knocked on the door of Wen Mansion.

‘Dong Dong Dong! Dong Dong Dong!’ The sound of knocking on the door echoed in everyone’s ears. Looking at the dead body on the ground, everyone could not help but shudder, and at the same time their bodies began to tremble uncontrollably.

"Who is it? Come on, come on, don't knock on the door again!"

Just at this time, the housekeeper who had just come to inquire about the situation came to the door and opened it.

"Who is this sir?" the butler looked at Hai Rui up and down with a suspicious look on his face.

"I am Hai Rui, the magistrate of Chun'an County. This time I received an order from the Chief Envoy to arrest Wen Rong, the murderer who committed a murder on the street!" Hai Rui's tone was flat, without much fluctuation.

"Just..." After hearing Hai Rui's self-introduction, the housekeeper was about to make a mockery when he accidentally caught a glimpse of the body in a pool of blood! He immediately suppressed everything he wanted to say.

.

"My lord, please wait a moment while I go in and report." In just a moment, the butler's expression became extremely respectful.

"Well, you go in and report! I will be waiting for your news here." Hai Rui saw the butler's expression in his eyes and said calmly.

"Yes, yes, please wait a moment, sir!" After the housekeeper said that, he ran away.

"Master, Master, it's not good. The government sent people to come to the door and said they wanted to take the young master away! Not only that, they also killed a janitor of my Wen family." The housekeeper came to Wen Pingyi panting.

, general report.

"What? Who did the government send?" Wen Pingyi was also shocked after hearing what the housekeeper said.

"He said he is Hai Rui, the magistrate of Chun'an County! He came here under the order of the Chief Envoy." After resting for a while, the housekeeper finally regained his composure and said to Wen Pingyi.

"This dog officer! Didn't he just think that the money given to him was too little? He actually sent this Hai Rui to my Wen family to arrest people. Not only that, he also beat and killed the servants of my Wen family!"

"This is really unreasonable, come with me!" Wen Pingyi said, glanced at the housekeeper from the corner of his eye, and gritted his teeth.

"Yes, sir, please come with me." After the butler finished speaking, he walked in front and led the way.

Under the leadership of the housekeeper, Wen Pingyi came to the door and met Hai Rui at the same time.

"I am the head of the Wen family. May I ask why you are here this time?" Wen Pingyi frowned and asked after seeing the body lying on the ground in a pool of blood.

"Isn't it obvious at a glance? I have been ordered by the Chief Envoy to arrest the murderer!" Hai Rui glanced at Wen Pingyi and said calmly.

Seeing that Hai Rui was so confident, Wen Pingyi became angry and said in a deep voice: "Then if that's the case, why did you kill my servant of the Wen family?"

"If you intend to obstruct my handling of the case, kill me! What, do you have any objections?"

"You you you!"

After hearing what Hai Rui said, Wen Pingyi became furious and pointed at Hai Rui with his index finger. He was speechless for a long time.

"I advise you to hand over the criminal as soon as possible, otherwise, I will punish you for harboring the crime!" Hai Rui ignored Wen Pingyi's angry eyes and said in a deep voice.

"Okay, your name is Hai Rui, right? Wait for me!" Wen Pingyi was completely angered by Hai Rui's attitude. He stared at Hai Rui with his eyes, as if he wanted to carve his face into his mind, word by word.

road.

"How dare you threaten the imperial official? What kind of crime should you do!"

On the side, when the guards of the Governor's Mansion saw this, they all pulled out the long knives at their waists and glared at Wen Pingyi.

Looking at those gleaming long knives, Wen Pingyi secretly swallowed a mouthful of saliva and held back all the words he wanted to say! He had reason to believe that if he dared to speak nonsense again, these long knives would really hit him.

Hai Rui waved his hand and asked the guard of the Governor's Mansion behind him to put away the knife. Then he looked directly into Wen Pingyi's eyes and said word by word: "My patience is limited, I advise you to hand over the prisoner as soon as possible, otherwise

, whatever happens at that time will be beyond my control."

"You are threatening me!" Wen Pingyi was furious when he heard this.

"Yes, I am threatening you, what can you do?" Hai Rui raised his eyebrows, his face full of mockery.

"Okay, okay, Chun'an County Magistrate Hai Rui, what you said has really benefited me a lot!"

"Go and bring that evil beast to me and hand it over to the magistrate!"

Wen Pingyi suppressed the anger in his heart and gave instructions to the butler on the side.

"Master, this..." The butler's face was full of hesitation.

"Hurry up and go!!!" Wen Pingyi roared with all his strength.

"Yes, sir! I'll go right away, I'll go right away." Seeing Wen Pingyi's anger, the housekeeper left in a hurry.
