After everyone finished laughing, Pan Dong felt sorry for Shi Tianyu and said in confusion, "Master Shi, you are a good official and you haven't made any mistakes. Since ancient times, which good official has not offended people? Oh, by the way, we have taken down the plaque that read "Love the People Like Your Own Sons" on the court of your government office and brought it to Kyoto. Is it in your study?"

Shi Tianyu nodded.

Pan Dong and Peng Jinshi immediately got up and went outside the mansion to carry the plaque in.

~~

The three of them went to the study and drank tea for a while. Shi Tianyu smiled and said, "You rarely come to Beijing. If you have time, go out and wander around. If you need money, go to Aunt Li to get it, just like you did in the Shi Mansion in Fucheng before. Don't be polite."

Pan Dong stood up and whispered a few words in Shi Tianyu's ear, then said loudly: "Sir, let's go out for a walk and find out some relevant information for you." After that, he went out with Peng Jinshi.

Shi Tianyu stood up and saw him off, and reminded him, "Don't cause trouble!"

Then he murmured to himself, "I wonder what the fate of the Yao family will be?"

Because Li Yiyu saw the Yao father and daughter appear in Kyoto two months ago, he thought that Yao Luyang and Tang Meiling were both in Kyoto.

In fact, the father and daughter of the Yao family were in Fucheng, being "captive" by the newly recruited detectives of the Dynasty.

~~

The heavy rain in the south is still raging wildly, accompanied by howling winds.

The trees waved their arms desperately, trying to withstand the strong wind and heavy rain, but they were powerless.

The rain has connected the ground and the sky into one, and the green leaves and flower stamens were knocked down by the wind and rain and floated in the potholes of water.

~~

Fucheng government office.

After dinner that day, Xun Jinchi, who was on duty in the prison cell, was greeted by Fang Shizhong, who came in the rain to inspect the prison cell with a smile on his face.

Fang Shizhong said kindly, "Child, go sit in the inner hall of the government office for a while."

He then pulled Xun Jinchi to the inner hall and sat down.

~~

Xun Jinchi felt excited again.

However, Fang Shizhong went to the inner hall of the government office and sat down, then he asked Xun Jinchi with a mysterious tone, "Child, did you know that the remnants of the Mahayana sect attacked the Qiansui Temple many times at the beginning of the year?"

Xun Jinchi was shocked, feeling that there was something wrong with these words and he really didn't know how to respond.

Fang Shizhong still said with a smile on his face: "Child, it is unwise for the Yao family to associate with such people."

Xun Jinchi understood what Fang Shizhong meant. He knew that Wang Haoxian and Li Zhiyong came to Yao's house. Originally, the remnants of the Mahayana sect came to blackmail Yao Luyang, but when Fang Shizhong said this, the meaning of the matter changed.

Xun Jinchi felt something was wrong, and he quickly defended himself tremblingly, standing up and bowing, saying, "Dad, this?! Well, I really have never had any contact with the remnants of the Mahayana sect." He cleared himself of any relationship with the remnants of the Mahayana sect, but, regardless of the life or death of his master, he did not explain the matter clearly for Yao Luyang. Moreover, Xun Jinchi also reported this matter to Fang Shizhong.

~~

Fang Shizhong did not blame Xun Jinchi, but said with a sincere and earnest voice: "Child, Dad is just reminding you for your own good. The government office has the right to appoint officials below the eighth rank, and they just need to report to the Ministry of Personnel for record. Dad wants to recommend you to Lord Wang for promotion in a while. So, don't get involved in those things in the underworld. Alas! Junior brother, you are very dissatisfied with Dad's promotion and use of you. Dad can see your dirty thoughts, so you have to be careful about everything."

Having said that, he tried to sow discord between Xun Jinchi and Yao Chaohai.

~~

Before this, Yao Chaohai saw his father and sister return to Fucheng, and thought that Fucheng was safe for the Yao family, so he also returned to Fucheng and returned to Pingting County to perform the duties of the county magistrate. However, within a few days, he was dismissed by Wang Chao and transferred back to Fucheng to serve as a jailer.

Therefore, we also know the relationship between Fang Shizhong and Xun Jinchi.

Therefore, it is inevitable to complain.

And his complaints would naturally reach the ears of Wang Chao and Fang Shizhong.

Now, Fang Shizhong feels that it is time to take action against Yao Chaohai.

Otherwise, how could they force Tang Meiling to be Wang Chao's concubine? Hehe! It has been raining for two months, and the government treasury has been out of money for a long time. If they use Yao Chaohai as a scapegoat, they can take the money from Yao's house and confiscate it! Otherwise, the government will not be able to make ends meet.

Xun Jinchi stared at Fang Shizhong in a daze, feeling horrified and shocked.

I'm really worried that I'll fall out of favor with Wang Chao and Fang Shizhong.

As for the people in the Yao Mansion, their life and death have nothing to do with them.

~~

Fang Shizhong said affectionately, "My child, you are spiritual and talented, but your father has no children. Now I see that your forehead is shining and your career is bright. Your father is already in his twilight years, and he also wants to train someone. Do your best!"

Use reason to persuade, appeal to emotion, and speak from the heart.

Xun Jinchi was so moved that tears welled up in his eyes when he heard this. He couldn't stop crying and said in a trembling voice, "Dad, I hope you live a long and healthy life."

Fang Shizhong sighed, and said, "Go out and do your job. Alas! All mortals are jealous, so you must be careful about what happens to your junior brother." While showing "concern", he did not forget to sow discord.

Xun Jinchi bowed to Fang Shizhong and went to inspect the prison.

~~

The rain gradually became less heavy, but it was still dripping.

The sky is like an old woman full of resentment, with a frown on her face.

Yao Chaohai, who was guarding the prison gate, saw Xun Jinchi coming and hurriedly took out his thoughts and insights of the past few days to remind Xun Jinchi, saying: "Brother, old thief surnamed Fang, oh, what did Lord Fang ask you to say again? I feel that he is too good to you, which is not right! We are brothers of the Shi family. The one surnamed Shi was brought into the government office to work, and the one surnamed Shi and Lord Fang are sworn enemies. How could Lord Fang be so good to us? I thought about it and felt that something was wrong."

Xun Jinchi had just been brainwashed by Fang Shizhong. After hearing this, he was very unhappy and thought to himself: Dad is right, all mortals are jealous, even my own junior fellow apprentices will have it.

Therefore, he did not answer Yao Chaohai's words, but instead said coldly: "Junior brother, be serious on duty and be smart, don't let the prisoners take the opportunity to escape." After that, he turned and walked into a small room in the cell.

This is the prison warden’s prison hall.

~~

Upon hearing this, Yao Chaohai was dumbfounded.

It can be seen that Xun Jinchi's changes are not just ordinary big, but extremely big.

It seemed as if Xun Jinchi had not lived in the Yao family for more than 20 years, but had just met Yao Chaohai.

Moreover, he is not familiar with Yao Chaohaiding at all.

~~

Xun Jinchi made a pot of tea and sat down at the small table. Fang Shizhong's words just now rang in his ears again: "My child, you are spiritual and handsome, but your father has no children. Now I see that your forehead is shining and your career is bright. Your father is already in his twilight years, and he also wants to train someone out." Xun Jinchi understood it seriously and felt that his career was really good. He couldn't help but smile proudly again.

I thought to myself: The ancients said that if you survive a great disaster, you will be blessed in the future.

My master's sect has just experienced a disaster, and I have survived a great disaster, which means I will have good fortune in the future.

Also, the relationship between people depends on fate, that’s very true!

I have a destiny with Fang Shizhong, but my junior brother has no destiny with Fang Shizhong. This is also normal.

Hey! Yao Chaohai is such a fool, no wonder his sword skills are getting uglier the more he practices.

Since I have good fortune and a successful career, I can no longer have anything to do with people in the underworld.

It would be best if I could persuade Master not to associate with people in the underworld, so as to avoid ruining my career.

~~

Xun Jinchi took a sip of tea, and then reflected on Fang Shizhong's words, and thought to himself: Think about Master, he is the richest man in Sichuan. But before, Lu Wangyue could seize thirty-six of his ships with just one word. Shi Tianyu's words are silver, and one word can make people promoted or lose their official hats. Yeah! Yes, it's still more impressive to be an official. I still want to be an official!

When Xun Jinchi thought of this, he became even more determined to serve as an official.

I felt a little sleepy, so I fell asleep peacefully on the desk.

~~

Suddenly, a scream was heard.

Xun Jinchi suddenly woke up, and a voice came from next door again: "Oh no, someone is breaking into the prison."

Xun Jinchi's heart skipped a beat and he quickly drew his sword.

But several masked men had killed a jailer and were besieging Yao Chaohai and another jailer.

Xun Jinchi shouted angrily, "Who is it?" Then he drew his sword and used the move "Dog Bites Lu Dongbin", and the sword light covered a masked man.

The masked man grabbed the knife and attacked Xun Jinchi with several quick moves, then stepped forward with the knife and killed two people.

He then held the knife and performed the "Boy Welcoming Guests" move, sweeping forward and hooking down to block.

Then he used the "Golden Dragon Coming Out of the Cave" move, splashing the knife like water, breaking Xun Jinchi's vicious move.

Seeing reinforcements coming, he did not dare to fight any further and said solemnly: "This move is rude, bullshit!"

Several other masked men drew their steel knives and used the brutal knife move called "Moving the Universe" to force back Yao Chaohai and the jailer who were guarding the prison door, and then they took advantage of the rain and fog to fly away.

~~

"what happened?"

Hearing the sound of fighting coming from the cell, Fang Shizhong hurriedly led several constables to the scene.

Xun Jinchi bowed and reported hurriedly: "Sir, someone disguised himself and came to rob the prison. Old Huang was unfortunately killed in the line of duty."

He didn't dare to call Fang Shizhong "Dad" to his face, and instead called him "Sir", with an embarrassed look on his face.

~~

Fang Shizhong shouted, "Who's on duty tonight?"

The official is very powerful and impressive.

"This?! What about this?!" Xun Jinchi was too embarrassed to say that he was his junior brother in front of Yao Chaohai.

Yao Chaohai sighed inwardly, knowing that he could not escape this disaster, so he bowed and said, "Sir Fang, there are three of us on duty, and my brother is unfortunately injured." After that, he pointed at a jailer beside him whose arm was dripping with blood.

Fang Shizhong asked again, and then ordered the accompanying constables to arrest Yao Chaohai: "Why didn't you sound the alarm? Come, arrest Yao Chaohai, and the rest of you will temporarily guard the jail for the jailer. We will discuss this matter again after the matter is fully investigated."

~~

"Dad! Wait a minute!" Xun Jinchi panicked and quickly pleaded for Yao Chaohai.

The detectives rushed forward, immediately confiscated Yao Chaohai's sword, carried Yao Chaohai away, and threw him into the cell.

Fang Shizhong put on a stern face again and shouted to Xun Jinchi, "Follow me to the inner hall of the government office."

The rain gradually stopped.

Gradually, the wind stopped blowing.

After taking down Yao Chaohai, it would be time to confront the Yao family.

However, a chess piece is also needed to go to Yao Mansion to make it clear that money is needed to redeem the person.

And this chess piece is Xun Jinchi.
