The proud master of the female president

In the main hall, several people sat on chairs.

The maid brought tea and snacks one after another. As Jiang Shaoyi's most powerful subordinate, and also the strongest in Jinhong City, Sikong Cheng, one of the two guest lords, nodded and bowed to accompany him throughout the process, but he was extremely anxious.

Didn't you see these people here, are you obviously impatient?

You know, they are from Wangcheng, and they are here to Xingshi to question their crimes.

Jiang Shaoyi said that there was "important matter to deal with", and it was impossible to keep procrastinating.

Sitting in the first place was a middle-aged man.

Red hair and red eyes.

Not angry.

"enough!"

His face became more and more ugly, and he scolded: "I am not in the mood to wait any longer, let Jiang Shaoyi come to see me immediately, otherwise... the entire city lord's mansion, from the bottom up, will be sent to prison first-I really think that delaying time will solve the problem ?joke!"

Boom!
Boom!
Boom!
There were rapid footsteps.

Seeing that he couldn't drag it any longer, Jiang Shaoyi, who had been hiding in the dark early, trotted all the way into the hall, and immediately bowed to the ground: "The envoy calms down! Shaoyi really has something urgent to deal with, and he has just finished dealing with it, so he came to see the envoy without stopping." .”

"Is it?"

The man stared at him, and said word by word: "I am too lazy to waste my words, I just want to ask you a question - Jiang Si, a direct descendant of the royal family, died in this Jinhong City, what can you say?"

Wangcheng also got the news that it was rumored in Jinhong City that Jiang Si had a special relationship with Jiang Jiuxu.

First, she was violated by Jiang Jiuxu, and then killed and silenced.

The issue is……

Jiang Jiuxu disappeared!

Jiang Si married from Wangcheng to Jinhongcheng.

For her death, Wangcheng had to punish her to maintain the face and dignity of the royal family, but the instigator disappeared without a trace. Could it be... just because the culprit disappeared, this matter was not dealt with?

impossible!
Someone must be responsible for this, otherwise what would be the face of the royal family?
Jiang Jiuxu is gone, isn't Jinhong City someone else who can be responsible?
In short, someone has to be responsible!
reason?

They don't care about reasoning.

"Report to the envoy!"

Jiang Shaoyi's forehead was covered with sweat, and his back was also soaked in sweat. He knelt down immediately and said in a trembling voice, "This matter was done by the former city lord. I really don't know the specific situation. Please use the envoy to learn from me!"

Of course he knows that it is not feasible to be reasonable, and it is meaningless to say so.

Knowing that it's not possible to say so...

Just to delay time!
"The murderer is missing, it has nothing to do with you."

The man stared at him with an extremely gloomy expression: "According to you, Wangcheng should not pursue it anymore, so Jiang Si died in vain. Jinhongcheng doesn't have to take any responsibility, and doesn't have to pay any price?!"

In the eyes of those high-level officials in Wangcheng, Jiang Jiuxu absconded in fear of crime.

If he runs away, everyone else will be fine?
dream!

If Jinhong City is not punished, and other cities will do the same in the future, what will be the face and dignity of Wangcheng?

"The envoy, the humble position is really..."

"presumptuous!"

Without waiting for Jiang Shaoyi to explain, the man interrupted unceremoniously, and said coldly: "It is impossible for a woman in my royal city to die for no reason! Since she died in Jinhong City, you will be responsible—Jiang Shaoyi, are you guilty? !"

Gah!
Jiang Shaoyi has one head and two big ones.

What's the matter with you?
Why hold yourself accountable for this?

but……

He knows better than anyone else that someone must be responsible for Jiang Si's death, which concerns the face of Wang Cheng's lineage, as for who will bear the charge...

Theoretically, Wang Cheng definitely hopes to be the top person in charge of Jinhong City.

However, there is room for maneuver.

That's right!

There is another way: give enough price to impress the envoy sent by Wangcheng, and find another person to top the package.

to be honest.

Someone must be responsible for Jinhong City, but it doesn't have to be Jiang Shaoyi.

The premise is that the price he offered is sufficient.

Take heaven, material and earth treasures, fine gold and jade, and all kinds of magic weapons, in exchange for a life from the other party.

He also understands that the other party has precisely grasped this point, and if he really chooses to use this method to save his life, the conditions offered by the other party must be extremely high, and even... will directly empty out the entire Jinhong City!
But what else can I do to save my life?
suddenly!

Just when he was about to use this last resort, a voice came from outside the hall: "Report to the city lord, bring the body of the former city lord!"

Gah!
The whole hall was dead silent.

thump……

Putting back the heart hanging in his throat, Jiang Shaoyi collapsed directly on the ground.

came back!
Finally got back in time!

Immediately, a group of people walked into the hall, the leader was not Jiang Qinglin, but Lin Yu.

"Qin Keqing?" Jiang Shaoyi was taken aback.

"To the city lord."

Lin Yu stepped forward, cupped his hands and said: "I know that the third son is slow, and I am afraid that he will not be able to come back in time, so after getting in touch with him, I went out of the city to meet him as soon as possible, and finally arrived in time."

Jiang Shaoyi was so excited that he almost shed tears.

Very good!
Fortunately, there is this kid, otherwise there will be big troubles.

He secretly decided that after this matter was completely resolved, Lin Yu must be treated better.

Those who came back with Lin Yu were sent by him to protect Jiang Qinglin. Several powerful elites clapped their hands together and said, "City Lord, I will fulfill my mission!"

"Where is the corpse? Hurry up! Bring it up!" Jiang Shaoyi said hastily.

"Yes!"

The lead guard waved his hand.

In an instant, the corpse was taken out from the storage ring, and everyone in the hall frowned.

no way!
It has been several days, and the body has been rotten.

The whole hall was filled with a strong stench.

The envoy from Wangcheng obviously frowned and winked at one of his subordinates.

The result he most wanted to see was that Jiang Shaoyi bribed him to save his life and find someone to act as a scapegoat.

But now...

Jiang Jiuxu's body was found!
If Jiang Jiuxu disappeared, Wangcheng would not be able to stop. It could even be considered that Jiang Jiuxu absconded in fear of crime—the monk could not escape the temple, and Jinhongcheng had to pay the price, otherwise what would be the face of Wangcheng?

but!

Once Jiang Jiuxu's body is found and it is confirmed that he is not running away but dead, then there is no way to deal with it, and there will be no one else in Jinhong City.

Now that the culprit is the head, what else can we do?
Whoosh!
Hou Xia immediately flew over.

He carefully identified the rotten corpse, turned around and cupped his hands a few minutes later, and said, "My lord! From the details of the body shape and appearance, we can indeed judge that it is Jiang Jiuxu, but... the corpse is seriously corrupted, and there is a possibility of tampering."

To put it bluntly, it was just a corrupted corpse, even if some details were consistent with Jiang Jiuxu, it could not be [-]% sure.

"In that case..."

The man stared at Jiang Shaoyi, and said coldly, "How do you prove that the corpse is Jiang Jiuxu?"

"This..." Jiang Shaoyi saw sweat on his forehead.

Why doesn't he understand that the other party wants absolute evidence?

after all……

For one thing, without absolutely tangible evidence, the other party would not be able to make a deal when he returned to Wangcheng.

Second come.

The other party wished that he had no evidence.

In this way, it returned to the previous state: Jiang Shaoyi had to offer a price that satisfied the other party in exchange for his life.

Can……

The other party will definitely open his mouth like a lion, completely emptying the treasure house of Jinhong City!

For Jinhong City, isn't it a fatal blow?It will definitely hurt your vitality.

"To the city lord!"

At this time, the leader of the guard sent by Jiang Shaoyi stepped forward and cupped his hands and said: "When the body of the former city lord was found, the personal weapons were all divine weapons, so they all flew away after death, but there are still some relics left - the body is mine. Safekeeping, the relics are kept by the third son."
