Daqin: Selling elves at the beginning, Zulong begged me to supervise the country

Chapter 32 A mere county official dares to kill the king?

Yanmen County

This place is the only place where Xianyang transports grain and grass to Jiuyuan County and Yunzhong County.

It's only half a day's journey from the disaster area.

The First Emperor and Meng Meng came here after praying for rain, and arrived in less than half a quarter of an hour.

Both Yunzhong County and Yanmen County were once the boundaries of Zhao State.

Because they relied on the Xiongnu, many people intermarried with the Xiongnu, and the people's customs were fierce.

After the unification of the Qin Dynasty, the Qin people took over the territories originally belonging to various countries.

This leads to further complexity in these border areas.

A man in black walked into the lobby of Guangjuxuan and found a seat by the window and sat down.

Behind him was a handsome young man who looked to be in his early twenties.

His temperament is incompatible with those around him.

As soon as the two appeared, everyone in the lobby raised eyebrows.

The First Emperor ignored the gazes of everyone, and as soon as he sat down, he followed the crowd and ordered two pots of small wine and several side dishes to go with the wine.

Everyone watched for a while, and then looked away when they saw the two of them eating normally.

Maybe the private rooms are full.

The lobby was noisy again.

"Hey, let me tell you, today I passed by the county governor's mansion, tsk tsk tsk... the pomp and circumstance is comparable to that of an emperor's married daughter."

The man patted the table a few times, saw everyone looking at him, and then said.

It immediately whetted everyone's appetite.

This is why the First Emperor chose to sit in the lobby.

Apart from brothels and Chu Guan, restaurants are the best places to get information.

"What's happening at the Sheriff's Mansion? Wasn't the Sheriff's daughter married long ago?"

"Yes, I have a relative who is that lady's maid, so I went with her."

"Don't give a shit, tell me now!"

"Yeah, tell me quickly!"

Seeing everyone stretching their necks to wait for the follow-up, the man's vanity was satisfied and he talked about his experiences with great joy.

"Just because the Lord Commander took a concubine today!"

"Appreciate~"

"It's not unusual for a county lieutenant to take a concubine."

"That's right. Besides, what does this have to do with the Sheriff?"

When everyone saw this, they just thought he was talking nonsense.

The county governor and the county lieutenant have always been at odds with each other. What relationship can they have?

"You don't know that!"

"The concubine of the county lieutenant comes from the county governor's house. She was originally the young lady of the imperial censor's family."

Everyone sighed again when they heard this.

The censor was killed by the refugees on his way to supervise the food supplies for disaster relief.

When the county guard arrived, the relief food had been robbed.

The county governor forcibly brought the eldest daughter of the prison censor's family to the mansion on the grounds that she was being imprisoned by the censor Tuogu.

Fortunately, the second young lady had been rebellious since childhood, acquired martial arts skills, and managed to break out.

The second young lady's temperament was not to the governor's liking, so he let her run away.

Unexpectedly, the second young lady broke into the county governor's house several times to rescue the eldest sister.

There was an uproar in Yanmen County.

"That's not right. The county governor didn't even care about the reputation of the young lady who was overseeing the censor's family. How could he give it up?"

"Yes, and the county governor is responsible for political affairs, and the county lieutenant is responsible for military affairs. The two positions are equal, and they have never dealt with each other."

"Do you really think that the two of you can't deal with each other? You're just showing it to others."

"Is it true that the disaster food was robbed by the refugees? Nothing happened from Xianyang to Yanmen County, but something happened right after Yanmen County took over."

"The county lieutenant, the county guard, and the supervisor are all on the same level. Why did the supervisor disappear for no reason? He disappeared when he went to inspect the disaster grain."

"I'm afraid I know something!"

"It's a pity that the lady who supervises the censor's family is a pity."

"You are all dying! Can this be discussed?"

Everyone was shocked and fell silent.

at this time.

A woman with a temperament that didn't match her appearance walked in.

look around.

Everyone stayed away for fear of getting involved with her.

Only the two men by the window were unaffected.

The clothes of those two people looked like they were either rich or noble.

In this era, only people above Sashi could wear silk clothes and tie their hair with hair crowns.

Ordinary people can only wear commoners and wrap their hair in a bun with a black scarf, which is called Qianshou.

The woman slapped the sword on the table of the First Emperor and the First Emperor and sat down.

He picked up the wine bottle on the table and poured it into his mouth.

The First Emperor looked at the woman in front of him.

He looked to be no more than thirteen or fourteen years old, with a round face and a childishness that had not faded.

When walking, there is a kind of heroic spirit that comes with martial arts practitioners.

"Girl, why are you just here?"

Meng Meng also looked at the woman in front of him with curiosity.

Imitating her actions, I picked up the wine bottle on the table and filled it.

Fortunately, the First Emperor had sharp eyes and snatched the wine bottle.

If Meng Meng drank this pot of wine, he would probably have to spend the night here tonight.

"I have no money, so I'm asking for a bottle of wine."

The woman smiled shyly, her cheeks flushed, whether because she was drunk or because she was embarrassed.

"Why drink."

The person in front of me didn't dress like he couldn't afford the drinks.

Even if the folk customs here are open, it is not so open that a woman who has not left the government can go out drinking alone.

"Be brave!"

The woman raised the wine bottle above her head, shook it, and shouted loudly.

"Oh? What is the girl going to do?"

"I, Wen Ruo, must kill those two dog officers today, rescue my sister, and avenge my father!" He said and threw the wine bottle heavily on the table.

Wen Ruo?If he remembered correctly, the censor of Yanmen County was named Wen.

Is this the second daughter of the censor?

"What does your father's death have to do with them?"

The First Emperor planned to continue talking. He vaguely remembered that he had received news of the assassination of the censor here two days ago, and there was nothing unusual about the memorial he presented.

"Those two dog officials stole the food for disaster relief. My father didn't want to join in with them, so he was killed by them."

"Do you have evidence for this matter? It is a serious crime to slander an official of the imperial court!"

"Of course I have evidence. The food for disaster relief is just... why do you ask so much?"

Even at a young age, Wen Ruo realized that he had been tricked.

After all, the First Emperor's question was too straightforward.

"I'll help you kill those two dog officers. You take me to the place where you secretly hide the food."

"Seriously?" Wen Ruo's eyes lit up. The two people in front of him looked very powerful. With their help, the chance of winning would be much greater.

"really!"

"Then let's go quickly, the dog officer should be on the way!"

Wen Ruo took Qi Huang's hand and ran away.

The First Emperor looked down at the little hand holding him. It had been a long time since anyone had dared to be so presumptuous with him.

"Dream, let's go!"

Meng Meng jumped up and followed behind, showing no signs of the stability of an adult man.

When they arrived at the Sheriff's Mansion.

The county magistrate is sending Wenrou out in person.

"Enjoy yourself tonight, Lord Lieutenant~" The Sheriff patted the Lieutenant on the shoulder and smiled ambiguously.

"Hehe, thank you Lord Sheriff for your love. Don't worry about the food. I have taken care of it!"

The county lieutenant smiled proudly and picked up Wenrou.

"Hmm~" Wenrou, dressed in red, twisted her body vigorously and kept slapping the man holding him with her hands.

The more she resists, the more excited the man becomes.

"Sister!"

When Wen Ruo saw this, he couldn't bear it anymore, so he drew his sword and rushed out.

Before he could come into contact with Wenrou, he was stopped by the county captain's people.

The county lieutenant looked up and down at the angry-looking woman.

"The two daughters of the censor are really the best, hahaha."

The First Emperor's eyes turned cold.

"dream!"
