C2818 Yu Wen County

In the face of Southern Hunt's attitude, although most of the soldiers and generals did not object, there was still a portion.

When Southern Hunter heard this, he was so angry that he laughed. "It seems that everyone has really forgotten that the military order is like a mountain. Do you really think that you can act recklessly without regard for the military order because the Lord is not around? When the Lord established the army, he said that no matter who violates the order, they will be killed without mercy!"

The pupils of those who objected instantly shrank.

Southern Hunter's words suddenly became icy cold: "Drag down 50 battles. If anyone offends again, they will be executed without mercy!"

...

About 30 miles away from Jin Ning Town, there was a huge and prosperous city.

Yu Wen County.

Yu Wen County was famous for its culture. It was said that there were some big literary figures, so it was renamed Yu Wen County. Yu Wen Yu Wen was a rich literary style.

Yu Wen County was close to the center, and there was a relatively large mansion.

On the plaque was the Min Residence.

The Min Residence was not simple. It was said that it used to be a big family in Wuxi County and was one of the most famous families in the Zhao. There were many people in the city who were officials.

The Divine Capital was the capital of the Zhao. It was under the feet of the Son of Heaven!

However, more than a hundred years ago, the Min family had committed some taboo. All the civil and military officials in the Divine Capital had been killed. After that, the Emperor ordered countless branches to be killed, causing blood to flow like rivers.

Following that, the remaining orphans and widows of the Min family moved out of Wuxi County and settled down in Yu Wen County. Although they were said to be orphans and widows in name, in reality, there were quite a number of people who moved to Yu Wen County.

After a mere hundred years, they had completely established themselves in Yu Wen County and expelled a family that was deeply rooted in Yu Wen County. From then on, they became one of the three big families in Yu Wen County.

As for what had happened over a hundred years ago, no one knew.

In the depths of Min Mansion, there was a building that burned incense day and night. ... Shockingly, it was the Min Clan's ancestral hall.

Within the ancestral hall, there were countless ancestral tablets of the Min Clan. At a glance, there were probably thousands of them.

At the bottom of the ancestral hall, in the praying mat.

A woman was kneeling on the praying mat with her eyes closed. She put her palms together as if she was praying.

Upon closer inspection, the woman had a delicate face. Her skin was as white as snow and she wore a light green dress. At a glance, it made people want to take care of her.

At the entrance of the ancestral hall, a maid dressed in pink clothes was nervously waiting there.

After an unknown amount of time.

The maid stood at the entrance and stuck her head into the door, "Miss, it's time for us to go back."

"There's no hurry." The woman in the temple spoke softly. Her voice was gentle and ethereal, just like Nightingale's.

The maid suddenly became anxious, "Miss, this servant heard from the other sisters that... the young masters and young ladies have all committed mistakes. That's why they were punished to come to the temple and kneel down to pray and repent. Miss, you didn't make any mistakes. Moreover, if you catch a cold, you will be punished. They do not know how anxious they must be."

Although the woman's face was weak, she shook her head with a bit of determination. "You don't understand... I only hope..."

...

Outside the Min Residence, several streets were turned and the magistrate office was located there.

On a street opposite the county magistrate office, there was a wine shop.

On the second floor of the wine shop, there was a private room.

Jiang Ting sat in the private room, leaning against the window, quietly looking at the magistrate office not far away.

He had come to Yu Wen County for a day. Yesterday morning, he had arrived at Yu Wen County and sat in the bar for a day.

At night, he found an inn to rest at. The next day, he came here again.

At this moment, it was almost noon.

He was the only person in the private room.

He was neither anxious nor slow. He quietly poured himself a cup and drank. Well, actually, what he drank was just tea. The current situation was not quick. He was just a mortal, so he naturally would not drink. If he got drunk, he would make a mistake!

Time slowly passed.

Soon, the time turned to afternoon.

"Creak..." The door to the private room was pushed open. Jiang Ting did not turn his head. Instead, he leaned to the side and used the corner of his eye to take a look... Hmm, the person who came in was Su Jiu.

Su Jiu entered the room and locked the door. Unless he opened the door inside, there was no reason for him to open the door outside.

When Su Jiu was half a foot away from him, Jiang Ting said softly, "How is the investigation going?"

He did not specially go to check the information in this day or so. He had brought a helper with him, so he should naturally let the helper use everything at the moment. Moreover, with Su Jiu's charm and appearance, it was more suitable to inquire about information.

Su Jiu said in a low voice, "There's quite a bit of news, but the situation isn't good."

If the person who didn't know the truth saw that the distance between the two of them was so close, then it would be filled with an ambiguous and charming feeling. But in reality, the two of them didn't have that intention.

Su Jiu didn't dare offend them. Jiang Tingze was, he wasn't interested.

The reason why he was so close to Jiang Tingze was purely to prevent words from falling into the ears of others. In this Last Days Land, it was an extravagant hope to send a sound transmission into the secret.

Jiang Ting was neither anxious nor slow. "It seems that controlling the county magistrate is very troublesome."

"It is more than troublesome. It is simply impossible."

After a pause, Su Jiu lowered his head with a bitter smile. "I wasn't very clear before. This time, I was carefully investigating the words of the young masters within the city, and I even used quite a bit of money to inquire about what the people of Nine Paths said. Only now did I confirm that the County Magistrate of Yu Wen County, Bao Yutang, disliked the most office."

Jiang Ting's eyes revealed coldness. "He was taken away?"

Su Jiu smiled bitterly even more. "In the magistrate court, apart from the name of the magistrate being given to Bao Yutang, there are various other matters. Be it the constables, bailiffs, or prisons, All sorts of positions are in the hands of the three great families."

Jiang Ting's breathing suddenly became heavy. He had originally decided to first control the county magistrate office and then control the main members of the three families through the county magistrate office. However, he had never expected that the huge county magistrate office was actually the three great families'. The great county magistrate Bao Yutang was actually in an empty state.

If Bao Yutang was completely useless, it would be an extravagant hope for him to secretly control the three great clans through the county magistrate office.

Even if he could control the upper echelons of the three great clans in the county magistrate court... In reality, he could not make the three great clans submit to him, even if he did not accept it!

This was because the people in power of the three great clans did not have official bodies at all. They were all in the residences of the three great clans. With his men, it would be impossible for them to enter the residences of the three great clans and kidnap someone.

Not to mention, Han Zhuo and the other people of the Thousand Azure Village who might have escaped had not heard a single word at all.

After thinking for a long time, Jiang Ting asked, "Is there any other news?"

Su Jiu nodded. "Yes. Han Zhuo and the others have met me at the ruined temple on the east side of the county town."

Jiang Ting bent his fingers and knocked on the fence for a while. Then he said softly, "How many people are there? How many can fight?"

"Including Han Zhuo, there are a total of 37 people."1

After pausing for a moment, Su Jiu explained in a soft voice, "Out of the 10 Protectors, only three escaped, and the rest are all ordinary elite soldiers. However, after this bloody battle, they can still follow Han Zhuo to gather. I see that even though they're indignant in their hearts, they don't have any complaints... "
