"Uncle Tang, as the governor of Chey'an County, why are you so cautious?"
Fang Chen didn't understand why Tang Zhong, as the de facto leader of Xia'an County, had to be so cautious.
"Haha, my dear nephew, on the surface I am the county guard and am in charge of the entire Cheyenne County, but in fact Cheyenne County is different from other counties. There are two county guards in Cheyenne County at the same time!"
Hearing Tang Zhong's words, Fang Chen was stunned for a moment, and then came back to his senses.
"Two county guards? Uncle Tang, you are talking about..."
"King of Zhennan—Hong Yuan!" Tang Zhong said in a deep voice.
Hearing the name of King Zhennan, Fang Chen's spirits tightened.
The name Hong Yuan is well known to women and children not only in Xia'an County, but also in the entire Tianyun Kingdom.
Hong Yuan’s life experience is a legend:
He was born into a business and traveling family, and he was supposed to be the son of an aristocratic family who would inherit the family mantle and spread the family business all over the world. He didn't want to, but because of his family's financial difficulties, he was forced to join the army in order to survive.
However, because he had practiced martial arts since he was a child, he became prosperous after joining the army and made many meritorious deeds.
In the Yunchu War fourteen years ago, Hong Yuan even showed great talent on the battlefield, killing several enemy generals in King Wu Realm. After the war, he was sent to the south to garrison. Later, he was suppressed for many rebellions. He contributed greatly to the border conflict and was named the "King of Zhennan" by the current emperor.
"Uncle Tang, isn't this King of Zhennan a vacuous position without any power? Why is Uncle Ling so careful?" Fang Chen was quite surprised.
Hong Yuan's fiefdom is in Xia'an County. On the surface, being crowned king is a supreme honor, but Fang Chen knows that in fact, the Zhennan King has no power except being granted a large fiefdom. It is just a nominal position.
This is also the current emperor's plan to deprive Hong Yuan of his military power and let him remove his armor and return to his fields.
"It may have been the case in the past, but it is no longer the case." Tang Zhong suddenly asked, "My dear nephew, do you know why I have to stay away from the capital to serve in Xia'an County?"
Fang Chen shook his head: "My nephew doesn't know."
"Then do you know who was the Sheriff of Cheyenne County before me?"
"The county's surname is like Wen, and it seems to be a good official who is diligent and loves the people." Fang Chen was still a little impressed with the predecessor.
Tang Zhong nodded.
"Shouwenllen, who is in charge of the county, is my confidant and friends of my classmates. During his tenure, Xia'an County was governed by well, and the people lived in peace.
During the talk, Tang Zhong's expression became serious, and his eyes showed a bit of sadness.
"But more than a month ago, he died mysteriously at the height of the limelight, and the cause of death turned out to be suicide!"
"Suicide?" Fang Chen also frowned.
"As far as my friend's understanding of my friend, he has always been indifferent to his well -known minds, and it is impossible to commit suicide!"
"Uncle, you are doubt ..."
"Although there is no evidence, I can be very sure that the death of Spirren is absolutely related to Hong Yuan" Tang Zhong Shen said.
"My doubts are not groundless! One mountain cannot tolerate two tigers, and Shunlun govern in Xia'an County and has been respected by the public. This naturally shakes the power of power that has been in operation in Xia'an County for many years. Among them, Zhennan Wang Hongyuan."
"Could it be that my uncle came to Cheyenne County to investigate the cause of Mr. Wen's death?"
"good!"
"But when I came to Chey'an County, I realized that in today's Chey'an County, from the county government to the cities and towns, almost all the officials, large and small, in the entire Chey'an County have been bribed by Hong Yuan. The entire Chey'an County is now worthy of its name. His Hong Yuan's back garden. "
"Is there such a thing?" Fang Chen was stunned for a moment after hearing Tang Zhong's words.
Unexpectedly, Hong Yuan was in his eyes to this extent in Xia'an County.
Fang Chen couldn't help but frown, a little unhappy.
"This Hong Yuan controlled the officials of Xia An County with such a means. Is he going to treat the entire Xia'an County as his private person?"
"Well ..." Tang Zhong lamented, "What I am worried about now is that Hong Yuan's goal is not just this little Xia An County, I'm afraid his ambitions ..."
"In Nanyuan County, which is adjacent to Chey'an County, there is a force that has just been mobilized, called the Black Tiger Army. It has a strength of 80,000. It is only less than a hundred miles away from Yong'an City, and the general who leads this force is 'Han Li' , is Hong Yuan’s old subordinate back then.”
"How could the imperial court make such a mistake and transfer Hong Yuan's old troops to a place so close to his fiefdom." Fang Chen was obviously dissatisfied with the imperial court.
"Now that the traitors on the court are the same, they are seriously ill, and the power is next to the power. A group of corrupt officials hold the government. As long as Hong Yuan spends enough prices, it is not surprising that the gangsters in the middle of the North Korean Central DPRK. Tang Zhong shook his head.
"If war breaks out in the land of Xia'an County, it will definitely bring endless disasters to the people of Dawn in my hometown!" Fang Chen clenched his fists. As one of the tens of millions of people in Xia'an County, he must not Allow this to happen!
"Moreover, I can feel that Hong Yuan seems to stop me from investigating the case of the blood demon. When I tracked the case of the blood demon, except Qin Sheng and my friends, almost everyone was changing the way to deal with me explaining me to explain to me mission."
"Now, you understand why I invited you to come to my home to discuss matters. I'm afraid Hong Yuan already knows the content of our meeting yesterday word for word."
"What!" Fang Chen heard that he was shocked.
"To be honest, if you have not had to have it, I really don’t want to involve you."
"Uncle does not have to blame himself. He can solve the dilemma in front of his uncle. The nephew couldn't ask for it." Fang Chen patted his chest to guarantee.
"Okay, it's not too early. I will eat in my meal later. Our uncle and nephew have a rare opportunity to get together. Today, I will have a drink for a few drinks." Tang Zhong sent an invitation enthusiastically.
"Let's wait for another day, uncle, I still have something to deal with first."
"Well, in this case, I don't stay much, you go busy you."
"The nephew retired first."
…
After leaving Tang Mansion, Fang Chen returned to Qingfeng Pavilion again.
Lin Yu originally sat outside a bench in the hall and looked out of the door. When Fang Chen came back, Lin Yu immediately rushed out to meet.
"Sir, you are back!"
"Have you eaten?" Fang Chen asked with a smile.
"No, we are waiting for you to come back to eat together." Lin Yu replied.
"Haha, okay, let's go in and eat together."
Opposite Qingfeng Pavilion is also an inn.
In the attic, three men were observing every move at the door of Qingfeng Pavilion from the window.
One of them wore a huge hat and covered his face with black gauze.
This person is the zero number appeared in the palace of the city.
"Sir, they're in," one of the men said.
"Okay, you can continue to observe here, and I will report it to the prince." No. 0 thought for a moment.
"Yes, sir!"
Immediately, Zero left the attic.
"Fang Chen actually went to the Tang Mansion, we must report this news to the master immediately!"
On the other side, after Fang Chen and Lin Yu entered the gate, Lin Yu immediately pulled them to a corner.
He spoke mysteriously into his ear.
"Sir, it seems we are being watched."
"Haha, I know..." Fang Chen pointed in a direction, "There are two people in the third attic at the opposite staircase. Go and take them down."
"Yes, Alin understands!"
Unexpectedly, Fang Chen even knew the surveillance location very well.
"There was a masked man wearing a bamboo hat who just left the attic. He should be their leader. I'm going to chase him!"
Fang Chen said it very casually.
"Master, you have to be careful!" Lin Yu said worriedly.
Fang Chen laughed: "Hehe, rest assured Alilin."
After speaking, Fang Chen left Qingfeng Pavilion from the back door.
…
Suburban manor.
In the palace, No. 0 ran in anxiously.
"How about, zero, what gains?"
In the center of the hall, the pale-skinned man was the first to ask.
"Back to the master, Fang Chen just went to Tang Mansion." Number Zero answered very decisively.
"Oh, it seems that Tang Zhong's old man should be discussing how to deal with me." The man thought about what he thought of, and asked, "Isn't your trace being discovered by the other party?"
Number Zero replied: "I have carefully restrained my aura, so the other party probably didn't notice."
"Friend, your breath has indeed calmed down a lot, but next time you follow me, remember to wash off the strong smell of blood from your body first!"
As hearty laughter came, a man dressed in white slowly walked into the hall.
Zero stared at the man in front of him was surprised.
"Fang Chen?!"
The young man in white who suddenly appeared in front of him was Fang Chen who was being monitored by him.
Number Zero didn't know why Fang Chen appeared in this palace. What was even more unbelievable was that he didn't even know.
Fang Chen's body exuded an astonishing aura, and his eyes flickered as he looked at the man sitting in the hall.
"Your Excellency is Zhennan Wang Hongyuan, right?"
…
The attic opposite Qingfeng Pavilion.
There was a sudden knock on the door outside the house.
"Is there anyone in the house?"
"What's going on?" The people in the room looked very alert.
"Customer, I am the waiter in the store. A guest officer just asked you to come down. He said he had something important to explain."
The person speaking outside the room was Lin Yu. Following Fang Chen's instructions, he came to deal with the two informants.
"What does the man who asked you here look like?" Questions continued in the room.
Lin Yu was stunned for a moment and then reacted.
"I don't know either. The man was wearing a big hat and a black gauze covering his face, so he couldn't see his face clearly."
Hearing the other party's description, the two people in the room were shocked. As expected from this description, Number Zero was calling them.
"Okay, we know, come down right away."
It didn't take long for the door of the guest room to open.
Just as he opened the door, he saw a handsome young man wearing light blue clothes standing outside.
"Who are you……"
Isn't the young man in front of them Lin Yu who was being monitored by them?
While the two were still in shock, Lin Yu suddenly punched one of them in the face.
The man had no time to react and was knocked upside down by Lin Yu's punch on the spot. He hit the wall of the house hard and passed out.
"What!"
Seeing this, the other person was about to resist.
Unexpectedly, Lin Yu used strength again and hit his lower abdomen with another punch.
The man's eyes widened, his stomach swelled and he vomited a large mouthful of sour water, and then he fell limply.
After subduing the two on the spot, Lin Yu also clapped his hands, carried the two people on the ground on his shoulders, and jumped from the second floor.
