The prefect of Kyoto, Chen Xiusong, was an upright person and had strict control over his subordinates. Therefore, the police officers of Kyoto Prefecture were more responsible than their counterparts in other states and counties. It cannot be said that there is no such behavior as taking advantage of others, but we can always keep a good balance to avoid causing anger and resentment.
Seeing Murong Qiushui and Ji Rouer's graceful figure and charming appearance, the yamen servant couldn't control himself for a moment, with a lustful look in his eyes.
Murong Qiushui severely injured five men named Qian, and Ji Rouer was the one who suffered the most. It was in line with the case-handling procedures to ask the two women to follow them to the government office, so the request made by the government officials was understandable.
And even if the two girls went to the government office together, the government servant couldn't actually do anything too extreme. He just wanted to look at it a few more times to satisfy his eyesight.
But the bad thing was that at that moment, the two women saw her lustful eyes clearly.
Ji Rou'er has been practicing medicine for many years and has become accustomed to such things, but Murong Qiu Shui's violent temper cannot be tolerated for a moment. A murderous intention flashed in Xinghe's eyes, and her slender hand was raised, with the unique light of spiritual power. The halo flickered on his fingertips, and the terrifying pressure swept away.
The yamen servant felt that the air around him suddenly turned into a viscous liquid, his body was tightly wrapped and unable to move, and even breathing became extremely difficult.
Kyoto is not Fencheng. Rong Fei and Ji Rouer have lived in Fencheng for ten years and have only met three monks, Guo Xiao, Li Xian and Yu Qingzhi. Monks can be found everywhere in Kyoto, but they are not unusual.
Therefore, the yamen officer immediately knew that he had offended someone he should not have provoked, but he could not move or speak at this time. Even if he wanted to beg for mercy and apologize, he was unable to do so.
The two Taoist priests from the Qiankun Temple in the crowd noticed Murong Qiushui's murderous intention, and were immediately frightened into pale faces. They risked being beaten and stopped in front of Murong Qiushui.
"Junior sister, junior sister... control your anger, control your anger!"
"Senior Sister, a mere yamen servant is not worthy of your action, so how about I let my junior brother do the work for me. You need to calm down first, anger is very harmful to your health."
"roll!"
Murong Qiu Shui gritted his teeth and spat out one word, which caused goosebumps to appear on the two of them with his cold and frosty anger.
The younger junior brother shrank his neck and stepped aside.
The older senior brother struggled for a while at first, then finally gritted his teeth and used his trump card, lowering his voice and speaking.
"Junior sister, if a monk hurts someone, he will alert the Immortal Division."
Murong Qiushui was startled when he heard this, and his anger and murderous intent retreated like ice melting.
Ji Rouer listened clearly to the conversation between the three of them, wondering what on earth Rong Fei had done to Miss Murong to be so intimidating. Then he took Murong Qiushui's arm, shook it gently and spoke in a gentle tone.
"My little sister knows a good place to have a drink, so I'm going to do it today to thank my sister for her kindness. I wonder if my sister can appreciate it."
Although the words of his fellow senior brother made Murong Qiu Shui's anger dissipate, his face was a bit uneasy. I'm afraid of that bastard Ji Xiansi, but can I say that?
I, Murong Qiu Shui, the majestic Saint of the Universe, don’t want to lose face!
Ji Rouer's words were like a timely rain, successfully changing this embarrassing topic and giving Murong Qiushui a comfortable step.
"For the sake of my sister, you don't want to be on the same level as them, huh!"
Murong Qiu Shui glared fiercely at the government servant who was lying limply on the ground, snorted coldly and turned away.
The two Qiankun Taoist priests bowed gratefully to Ji Rouer.
After Ji Rouer waved her hand, she walked to another yamen servant and whispered a few words. The officer's expression immediately changed. He took two steps back and bowed respectfully to Ji Rou'er. Then he called on his colleagues to take away the bodies of the five men named Qian and Qian's wife.
After the Yamen servant left, Ji Rouer called the old Taoist priest and Old Yangtou aside.
"This girl Murong and I have special status and it is inconvenient to go to the Yamen. I can only trouble you and I to go there."
Both of them had already guessed that Ji Rouer and the hot-tempered girl were not ordinary people, so they quickly nodded in agreement. Before leaving, the old Taoist priest looked at Ji Rouer with an expression on his face that he was hesitant to speak.
Ji Rouer understood and smiled.
"I'm going to treat Sister Murong to a drink today. Patients who haven't been diagnosed and treated can be asked to come back tomorrow morning."
The old Taoist priest was overjoyed when he heard this. He bowed gratefully to Ji Rou'er and took Old Yang Tou to the Kyoto government office happily.
"What did you say to that fake Taoist priest? Look at his happy face."
Murong Qiushui asked.
"I didn't say anything. The old man is kind-hearted, so he is content with what he has."
Ji Rouer said with a smile, then took Murong Qiushui's arm and left.
Although the two girls had just met and had very different personalities, they chatted quite enthusiastically, laughing and laughing all the way, attracting frequent glances from passers-by.
Soon the two girls arrived in front of the tavern in the narrow alley of Nancheng.
Ji Rouer took a look inside and called out softly when she saw no trace of the landlady.
"Sister Jin is here."
…
Wherever the important places of the imperial court are located, there will be imperial guards in front of the gates to prevent unauthorized intruders and also to protect the personal safety of officials in the yamen.
Most of the time, the Imperial Guards guarding them were doing nothing, either lowering their helmets and taking the opportunity to take a nap, or secretly drooling at the passing girls and wives.
A forbidden soldier yawned several times in succession. He looked around and estimated that no one would come to check the post. He was about to lower his helmet to block his eyes, but out of the corner of his eye he caught a glimpse of a swaying figure slowly walking towards him.
The Imperial Guard suddenly became energetic, and at the same time he did not forget to send a signal to the other three comrades, indicating that they had a beauty to see.
When the swaying beauty came closer, the four imperial guards noticed that there was a young man accompanying the beauty.
This boy is so lucky!
The four Imperial Guards sighed in unison with half envy and half jealousy in their hearts, but when they saw the man's face clearly, their hearts suddenly thumped.
It was actually Rong Fei, the head catcher of Ji Xian Division!
Judging from the direction he was traveling, it was not to the Jixian Si Yamen on the opposite side, but straight to the Xingbu Yamen.
Seeing Rong Fei walking up to him, a forbidden soldier forced out a smile and pointed to the opposite side.
"Rong Baotou, you are going to the wrong place. The Ji Xian Division is on the opposite side. This is..."
"Xingbu, I know, we are on the right track."
Rong Fei answered first without waiting for the imperial army to finish.
"Forehead…"
The face of the Imperial Guard changed, and he thought that the Sangmen Star's visit would be bad.
A few days ago, Rong Fei went to the Ministry of Household Affairs and detained a minister and a principal. I came to the Ministry of Punishment today and I don’t know which of the adults is going to be unlucky.
But then I thought about it, no matter who he was, his misfortune had nothing to do with him. Why was he so nervous here? So he just pondered for a moment, then hurriedly raised his hand and said.
"Please arrest the head man later, I will report it right away."
After the Imperial Guard finished speaking, he turned around to leave, but Rong Fei's voice came from behind him.
"Inform Chief Inspector Tan Qi that Rong Fei has official duties and needs his assistance."
There are also officials in the Yamen of the Ministry of Punishment, such as yamen, policemen, and arresters, who are driven by the adults of the Ministry of Punishment to run errands. However, their status, rank, and power are no different from those in the Yamen of the state capital.
Hearing that the person Rong Fei was looking for turned out to be just a small head catcher, the imperial army felt a little disappointed, secretly thinking that there would be no good show to watch today.
Before Rong Fei could wait too long, a middle-aged man wearing soap clothes and a steel knife hanging from his waist hurriedly ran out and saluted Rong Fei.
"Tan Qi has seen Rong arrest his head."
"You and I are both head catchers, so we don't need to be so polite. I'll call you Brother Tan, and you can call me Brother Rong."
Rong Fei held Tan Qi's arms and smiled.
Tan Qi was also frightened when she learned that Rong Fei was looking for her by name. This is not because he is timid, but because Rong Fei's reputation has spread throughout the officialdom of Kyoto recently.
In Kyoto, where there are as many high-ranking officials as dogs, Tobe Zuoshilang is one of the most powerful figures in the ranking. But so what, why don't you let Rong Fei be detained as soon as he says so?
The reason for the arrest was simply because Ji Xiansi's salary was late for half a year.
Although he was released after only being detained for half a day, Fan Li took sick leave and hid at home. It is said that he has still not returned to work. Not only was Rong Fei not punished, but he went to look for bad luck in Zuixianju without stopping.
As a result, Chang Liu, the usually majestic chief manager of Jingyuan Marquis Mansion, was kept submissive and did not dare to let out another fart.
Such a difficult person wanted to find him by name, so Tan Qi was extremely courageous for not losing control of himself on the spot.
Seeing Rong Fei being so polite and kind, Tan Qi couldn't help but be startled.
This is different from my own understanding!
"Brother Tan, please take a step to speak."
Rong Fei didn't have time to guess Tan Qi's psychological activities, so he pulled him aside and explained his purpose in a low voice.
"Rong arrested...do you want to examine the bodies of those people?"
Tan Qi felt a little strange and Chao Rongfei recognized it.
Seeing Rong Fei nodding, Tan Qi breathed a sigh of relief, patted his chest and said.
"It's a trivial matter, Rong Zhu... brother, come with me."
After saying that, he took Rong Fei and Flower Demon into the Xingbu Yamen.
"When the corpses of those people were first delivered, Eunuch Wei, who was in charge of the ceremony, specially warned him to keep an eye on them. No one could get close to him without his permission. Therefore, Mr. Chen, the minister, specially left an ice cellar to leave the bodies. The corpses were placed inside to prevent them from rotting. But now seven or eight days have passed, and those corpses seem to have been forgotten, with no one paying attention or caring about them."
Tan Qi led the way and said as he walked.
"I heard some gossip yesterday. It seems that the palace is no longer prepared to pay attention to Commander Fan... No, it was the assassination of Thief Fan. But there is no conclusion yet on how to dispose of these corpses. I guess the nobles in the palace are all I don’t remember this anymore, I’m planning to ask Mr. Chen for instructions tomorrow to move the body out of the ice cellar..."
Tan Qi was tall and strong, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, but he was a talkative person who never expected to talk about anything and everything.
And instead of showing any impatience, Rong Fei listened with great interest.
Soon the three of them came to an ice cellar underground.
Tan Qi opened the door and was about to go in, but was stopped by Rong Fei.
"Brother Tan, please stay outside. It's best that you don't get involved in this matter."
Tan Qi was stunned for a moment when he heard this, then his expression changed, he bowed his hands gratefully towards Rong Fei, and hurriedly ran out of the cellar.
The rumors were indeed unreliable, and I almost made a big mistake.
That's right. Conspiracy and assassination are such major events. How could the palace just ignore them?
Tan Qi thought fearfully while running.
