Chapter 268
Qin Feng couldn't understand what the magistrate meant for a while.

Didn't you invite him to investigate the case?Why give him the trick of inviting you into the urn?
But the magistrate's next explanation made Qin Feng understand.

"Hehehe, Mr. Qin, please don't resent me. This residence is really helpless."

The prefect's sighing voice came from outside the door: "If the 300 million taels of silver are not found, the government will be exiled to the frontier fortress at the worst, and will be convicted of dereliction of duty at worst, and may lose his head."

"This mansion is now in full swing and has not lived enough. I don't want to be killed by His Majesty just like that. But someone must bear the responsibility. Your Excellency is here at the right time. This mansion doesn't need to bother to find someone, just treat you as a stolen treasury Silver thieves are fine."

After listening to the magistrate's words, Qin Feng understood the general idea.

This meant that he and Wan Kunming should be used as scapegoats, like Kuguan Lin Zheng, and he would be responsible for the theft of the 300 million taels of silver.

Although the money may not be recovered, but being able to catch the thief will at least make up for the merits and demerits. When the time comes to check with the household department, when reporting to the emperor's ear, he will take credit for it.

Maybe, not only can he survive, but he can continue to be an official.

Really good plan.

"Speaking of which, Master Qin reminded me... If Master Qin hadn't woken up the house, our house's attention may still be on the case until now. It was Lord Qin who taught the house to weigh it Whichever is more important."

"My lord is right. There are countless guards around my house, and there are masters like Ling Chong by my side. It is not easy to assassinate my house. But if the emperor finds out about this, my house will definitely lose its head."

"Help people to the end, since Mr. Qin has reminded me, why don't you just help me to give Lei this place!"

Qin Feng was dumbfounded. He co-authored the magistrate to make such a sudden move, or was it because he reminded the magistrate here?

What is there to say?

He shot himself in the foot.

In the past, Qin Feng only regarded this sentence as a common saying, knowing the meaning and using it, but until now, he finally had a personal experience.

This taste is too uncomfortable, too awkward, too aggrieved.

"Your Majesty, don't be confused! I am an official appointed by the imperial court, but I will go to the Beihai border barracks to take up my post in two days! If the emperor knows that I am not going, I will still find you. !"

Qin Feng wanted to scare the prefect with a few words.

Unexpectedly, the magistrate laughed: "Hahahaha... kill you, and then take the government office away, everyone will know that you are a criminal, and who will know that you are a county magistrate from another place?"

"As for taking office, as long as you leave Master Qin's official seal, the government will send someone to take up the post. Isn't Master Qin leaving Ninghai for the first time?"

"Presumably no one knows what you look like in Beihai, right? As a county magistrate, you won't have the chance to see Long Yan, and the emperor won't be able to tell whether Qin Feng is real or not."

Qin Feng was choked again, the damn magistrate, he was so fucking thoughtful, he even planned to find someone to replace him!
The damn thing.

Qin Feng originally thought that he was just a lazy official who didn't do anything, but now it seems that he is not only lazy, but also full of blood.

The magistrate outside did not intend to have too much communication with Qin Feng, and greeted the bank guards behind him: "Everyone, surround the bank! The thief who stole the bank is inside. Danger!"

"Just wait for the government to give an order, then all of you will rush in and hack the culprits to death!"

"Yes!"

The soldiers surrounding the bank responded in unison, and then the sound of hurried footsteps came from the door, making Wan Kunming extremely nervous: "My lord, what should I do?"

"What else can I do? Fight them!"

"The prefect of Bincheng is too shameless. I kindly help him solve the case, but he still wants to treat me as a scapegoat. It's unbelievable!"

"Fight it! As soon as the door opens, you will follow me, and I will take you out!"

Qin Feng gritted his teeth and said to Wan Kunming.

The magistrate's behavior was even worse than crossing the river and tearing down the bridge. Before Qin Feng helped him cross the river, he was already in a hurry to kill Qin Feng.

In addition to being indignant, Qin Feng greeted the eighteen generations of the magistrate's ancestors in his heart.

"My lord, how can this be? Lord Qin kindly helped us solve the case..."

Ling Chong's voice of persuasion suddenly sounded outside.

Soon, the magistrate responded to Ling Chong's words: "You, the government must take care of the safety of the government first! Ling Chong, why do you still speak for outsiders? If the government loses its official position, where will you go?" Looking for such a good job now?"

"My lord, Ling advises you to think clearly."

"Stop talking nonsense. I heard that Qin Feng seems to know a little bit of martial arts when he is reported by his subordinates. If the guards can't kill him later, they will ask you to take action. At the critical moment, don't add trouble to the house!"

Ling Chong didn't speak any more, and the magistrate didn't move at all.

But there were fierce fighting sounds outside, and besides that, there were exclamations and screams from the soldiers guarding the bank.

After about half a stick of incense, the sound of fighting gradually subsided, and the door lock of the bank door clicked. Then, Ling Chong pushed the door open with one hand and came in. In his other hand, he was carrying a soft bag. The magistrate drooping.

"You killed him?"

"No, just passed out."

Qin Feng didn't even hear the magistrate's exclamation just now, probably when Ling Chong shot, the magistrate passed out without even humming.

"That's good."

Qin Feng nodded at Ling Chong and gave him a high look.

This person is okay, he knows what things can be done and why things can't be done.

No matter how vicious the magistrate is, he is an official appointed by the imperial court. Officials at the magistrate level are all appointed by the emperor himself. Even if the case is overturned, the normal process must be followed. Make the final decision.

Going beyond this level and killing people is a serious crime of disobedience!

Those who are not accustomed to officialdom among the folk green forest heroes may do assassination, but Ling Chong cannot do it.

Qin Feng still plans to use his talent.

"This dog official! His heart is so vicious. Ling has been with him for a long time. I only know that he is lazy, but I didn't expect that he also has such a dark side. It's really embarrassing!"

Ling Chong threw the magistrate on the ground with contempt, and cursed.

After cursing, he bent down and grabbed a jade pendant hanging from the magistrate's waist, and said to Qin Feng: "Master Qin, although Ling Chong doesn't know whether what you and Wan Kunming said is true or not, but after two days of investigation Judging from the case, you are much better than this magistrate. I don’t think this case should be taken care of. With this pendant as proof, Ling can call the city gate open. Why don’t you just leave now, my lord.”

"No, I want to investigate the case."
