The Regent's Concubine is Crazy

Chapter 422

Upon hearing this, Mo Feng said, "Who said it wasn't true!" Mo Feng kicked Lu Zhentian on the thigh.

Lu Zhentian groaned, his swollen face twisted in pain.

Lu Zhentian thought to himself: I will endure it, but when you get to the government office, you will be trapped. I will wait and see how I will take revenge on you.

A group of people came to the county government office in a mighty procession. They were men and women, all dressed in bright and beautiful clothes, and it was obvious that they were not ordinary people.

In front of the county government gate, two bailiffs looked at each other and looked at the uninvited guests in confusion.

"Are you here at the county government office to report to the authorities?" a bailiff stepped forward and asked tentatively.

His eyes swept through the crowd and suddenly stopped on a man who was tightly tied with ropes.

The man's face was bruised and swollen, and he was angry. He was struggling and shouting, "Wang Ping, save me!"

Hearing the shout, Wang Ping asked, "Who are you?"

"I'm Lu Zhentian!" the tied man shouted in exasperation. He struggled to break free from the ropes, but the power disparity was too great, so he could only roar helplessly.

Shangguan Ziling sneered, "Ha! You really are protected by the county magistrate. You are so familiar with the people in the county government!"

Lu Zhentian said proudly: "Hmph! If you know what's good for you, let me go quickly. You have walked into a trap by coming to the county government office. Hand over the jade token obediently, and give me some money. I can ask the county magistrate to send you to a new sentence."

The two yamen runners looked at each other and could not help but feel a little wary. They looked at this group of people and knew they were not friendly. Especially when they saw Lu Zhentian being tied up by this group of people, they felt that the situation was not simple.

One of the bailiffs turned around quietly and ran quickly into the county government office, apparently to report the news.

Another yamen runner stood where he was, trying to stop the group from entering the county government office.

However, Shangguan Ziling and his group did not seem to care about the obstruction of the yamen runners.

They walked in carefree, as if this was their territory.

Mo Feng even kicked Lu Zhentian on the calf and said coldly: "You are still not honest. You think that when you come to the county government, the county magistrate will back you up! How naive!"

Lu Zhentian's face was twisted with pain, but he didn't dare to speak again. He knew that he couldn't afford to offend this group of people, but he could afford to offend the county magistrate!

You know, Rongcheng is close to the border, the emperor is far away, and the county magistrate is the local emperor here. He will just endure it if this group of people get into trouble soon!

Upon hearing the news, the county magistrate hurried to the court, sat in the court with a gloomy face, and his eyes were like knives, piercing Shangguan Ziling and his group.

On both sides of the court, the bailiffs also had unfriendly looks on their faces, and the atmosphere instantly became tense.

"How dare you kneel down before the county magistrate!"

Bei Suqi heard this and smiled jokingly: "A mere county magistrate dares to act so arrogantly? I'm afraid your good days are coming to an end."

Upon hearing this, the county magistrate's face darkened, and he slammed the gavel, shouting angrily, "How dare you! Who are you? How dare you speak nonsense in court?"

Mo Shaoxie hugged Shangguan Ziling, walked slowly to a chair nearby and sat down, without even looking at the county magistrate.

The county magistrate's face became even uglier, and his anger grew stronger.

At this moment, Lu Zhentian saw the county magistrate, as if he had seen a life-saving straw, and hurried forward to complain: "Sir, save me! This group of people broke into my house last night and beat me and my brothers without any explanation."

The county magistrate looked at Lu Zhentian's bruised face and recognized his voice. He also knew from the report of the yamen runner that Lu Zhentian had fallen into the hands of this group of people and that these people had ill intentions. His anger grew even greater. He had become accustomed to getting whatever he wanted in Rongcheng.

It had been a long time since anyone dared to contradict him. The county magistrate was furious at being ignored.

"Lu Zhentian? You are really useless!" The county magistrate sneered, "You have so many subordinates, including the people I gave you, and you can be beaten like this? You are just a waste!"

The county magistrate's words made Lu Zhentian's face turn pale, "Sir, this group of people are quite skilled in martial arts. And the people you gave me didn't come back last night. I guess they were killed by them."

Upon hearing this, the county magistrate turned his dangerous gaze towards Shangguan Ziling and his group and shouted, "Come here, arrest all of these people and put them in jail!"

Shangguan Ziling sneered and said, "You, the county magistrate, didn't even ask about the situation and just came to arrest people. You are really a nest of snakes and rats!"

The county magistrate snorted coldly and said, "Since you have entered the county government office, whatever you say and do will naturally be decided by me."

Shangguan Ziling raised her eyebrows when she heard this, and said lazily: "Oh, I just came to Rongcheng and saw the prosperous scene on the street. I thought the people here lived well. Today I know that the people may not be as they seem."

The county magistrate was angered by Shangguan Ziling's words, but looking at the stunning looks of Shangguan Ziling and the other girls, he knew that there were many beauties in his backyard, but none as stunning as Shangguan Ziling. However, seeing that she was pregnant, he couldn't help but frowned.

But it doesn't matter. It's nice to play with such a beauty. The county magistrate couldn't help but sneer and said, "Why are you still talking nonsense? Put all the men in jail and the women in my backyard!"

After this was said, the yamen runner did not think there was anything wrong with what the county magistrate said. It was obvious that this was not the first time this had happened.

The county magistrate sat in the court, looking at Shangguan Ziling's clear eyes and beautiful face, his eyes were filled with subtle greed and desire.

Mo Shaoxie keenly noticed that the county magistrate was looking at his Ling'er. His brows were slightly furrowed, and a chill emanated from his body, causing the temperature of the entire hall to drop instantly.

Mo Shaoxie spoke coldly, his voice full of unquestionable majesty: "Since you don't want the eyes, then don't take them."

As soon as he finished speaking, a powerful internal force burst out from Mo Shaoxie's body and rushed straight into the county magistrate's eyes.

The county magistrate was startled by this sudden internal force, and he quickly used his internal force to resist.

The two internal forces collided in the air, making a dull sound.

Bei Suqi stood aside, watching this scene, with a hint of amusement in his eyes. He said faintly: "Oh! You are still a martial artist." Although his voice was not loud, it was filled with an indescribable mockery.

The county magistrate's arms went numb from the shock of Mo Shaoxie's internal force, his blood was boiling, and he almost vomited blood, but the county magistrate suppressed it forcefully.

He looked at Mo Shaoxie, Shangguan Ziling and his group with a gloomy face.

At this time, the yamen runners saw that the county magistrate was at a disadvantage, and rushed forward to capture Shangguan Ziling and his group.

However, they underestimated the strength of Qiu Kui, Dong Qing, Mo Feng and others. They didn't even draw their swords, but used their fists.

Not long after, these yamen runners were severely beaten by several people, and they lay on the ground wailing.

The county magistrate looked at the runners on the ground, and his anger grew even stronger. With a gloomy face, he looked at Mo Shaoxie and Shangguan Ziling and his group again, with a vicious light flashing in his eyes. He roared, "Catch them!"

As the county magistrate gave an order, a large number of men in black suddenly emerged from the darkness, holding sharp blades, and surrounded the court.

These men in black were obviously killers hired by the county magistrate. They all had stern faces and fierce eyes, as if they would pounce on Mo Shaoxie and others and tear them into pieces at any time.

Shangguan Ziling looked at the man in black with a look of disdain on her face. She sneered, "Ha! A mere county magistrate has many assassins. It seems that you, as a county magistrate, have great ambitions!" Her voice was gentle but full of ridicule and contempt.

Mo Shaoxie didn't say anything, but his eyes were sharper than any words. He looked coldly at the county magistrate and the men in black, as if he was looking at a group of clowns.

Mo Shaoxie waved his hand, and immediately, his secret guards appeared and started fighting with the men in black.

The lobby suddenly became chaotic, with the figures of the men in black and the secret guards intertwined, and low sounds of fighting and screams could be heard from time to time amid the flashing of swords and sabers.

The county magistrate stood aside, watching all this with a gloomy face, a sinister light flashing in his eyes.
