Ji Wenxuan glanced at him, then said nothing more.

Along the way, he met several people who knew Ji Wenxuan!

They were all visibly surprised!

"Lord Ji! What happened to you? Who beat you up like this? Has something happened at the Prefect's residence?"

Ji Wenxuan shook his head helplessly!

"Let's find a quiet place! Get all the irrelevant people out! I have something to discuss with you!"

Zhang Fan was displeased upon hearing this!

"Who are you calling 'idle people'?"

"You're probably plotting something, aren't you?"

"What? This is something that can't be brought to light!?"

Ji Wenxuan was so angry he wanted to kill someone!

"Ma Minghao! Who exactly is he? Can you please get rid of him?"

Zhang Fan: "Why should I? Who do you think you are? You think I'll just leave because you tell me to!"

Ma Minghao could already sense the real anger emanating from Ji Wenxuan!

He quickly gave the person next to him a wink!

They had him dragged away!

The man was dragged away, cursing and swearing!

He sighed and said, "Lord Ji! Don't be like him. He's still a child! He's Uncle Mo's nephew! And he's the youngest in the army!"

"So everyone tends to spoil him!"

Ji Wenxuan was somewhat helpless! It wasn't until he entered Ma Minghao's house and saw that no one was around that he revealed his plan!

"That's how it is! It's better for me to take over the military camp than for the prefect to send someone else!"

"Moreover, Lin Ru should take action within the next couple of days while she's at the Prefect's residence!"

"But this military camp is even more chaotic than I expected. Are you all people with connections?!"

Ma Minghao, somewhat embarrassed, explained their situation.

"That's just how it is! All the old men around the county commandant have been tortured half to death by Pang Da!"

"And the people on Pangda's side were also killed by Bian Du!"

"This military camp is now leaderless!"

"Undercurrents are brewing!"

Ji Wenxuan thought for a moment and then told him to call Wu Fei, Hei Meng, and the others over so he could ask them about the situation.

And just as he stepped out!

Zhang Fan then helped a pale-faced middle-aged man into the room!

The man first looked Ji Wenxuan up and down.

Then he spoke, "Are you the newly arrived Commandant of the Prefecture?"

Ji Wenxuan: "Who are you?"

Before the man could speak, Zhang Fan interjected, "This is Uncle Mo! He was the right-hand man of the former Commandant!"

Uncle Mo glared at him irritably, but didn't argue back!

"I am the Commandant of the Prefecture! And I only recognize one Commandant of the Prefecture!"

"Whatever your purpose in coming here, I advise you to leave as soon as possible!"

Ji Wenxuan sneered, "With a formidable enemy at hand, you're still thinking about eliminating dissidents! I really don't know if you're stupid or just plain stupid!"

"And this nephew of yours! He's ruthless! The way he looks at me is full of malice, as if I stole his position!"

"Even if I hadn't come, he wouldn't have been chosen as the Commandant of the County!"

"I was previously a county magistrate, and now I am a prefectural commandant, a title personally bestowed by the prefect. The official seal is affixed to the document!"

"It's not like it's off just because you say so!"

Enraged, Zhang Fan stepped forward and raised his hand to lash out with the whip again!

I don't care what you are!

"Once you're here, you have to listen to Uncle Mo!"

"You really think that just because you've lost your official seal, you can become a commandery commander!"

"I'll beat you to death right now! And send you to the underworld to be the county commander!"

But before he could even bring his whip down!

Suddenly, a burly man appeared behind him and kicked him in the waist, sending him sprawling face-first into the dirt!

Uncle Mo wanted to stop it, but he didn't expect someone to be faster than him!

He turned his head and saw that the man was filthy, like a beggar! Moreover, his skill was unfathomable!

"May I ask who you are...?"

Before he could finish speaking, Zhang Fan started spouting wild words again!

"That bastard dared to ambush me from behind. Does he dare to fight me one-on-one?"

He tried to stand up despite the pain, but before he could even stand, he was forced to the ground and brutally beaten!

When Uncle Mo saw that his nephew was about to be beaten to death, he quickly stepped forward to stop him!

"Have mercy, sir!"

But the person seemed not to hear!

They kept hitting!

Until the people below fainted!

Ji Wenxuan then spoke calmly, "Wu Fei! That's enough, stop. Don't kill him!"

Wu Fei then stopped!

At this moment, Ma Minghao led Hei Meng and the others in, panting heavily!

"Wu Fei! Why are you walking so fast?"

"We're exhausted!"

How come you walk like you're flying?

Wu Fei rolled his eyes at them!

He gestured with his mouth towards Ji Wenxuan on the bed!

Only then did Hei Meng and the others see Ji Wenxuan on the bed, his body covered in whip marks!

"Good heavens! Second brother, what happened to you? Who beat you up like this? Tell your big brother! I'll beat him to death to avenge you!"

"Yes! Second Master, what's wrong with you?"

Ji Wenxuan recounted what had just happened with a hint of helplessness.

Remember when Hei Meng drew the dagger from his waist and was about to stab the unconscious Zhang Fan on the ground!

"You little brat! I think you're tired of living!"

Just as he was about to stab her!

Uncle Mo stood by and repeatedly tried to stop them!

"Please have mercy, everyone!"

"He's still young, just a child, so he's bound to be a bit reckless!"

"Please, for my sake..."

Before he could finish speaking, Hei Meng rolled his eyes!

"What face do you have, old man? Just because you're old doesn't mean you have face! Who do you think you are?"

"That's hilarious! How old is he?! He looks like he's thirteen or fourteen at the moment!"

"This guy could be a father!"

Uncle Mo looked at Ma Minghao with pleading eyes!

Ma Minghao said with some difficulty, "How about we let him go this time?"

Ji Wenxuan sighed!

"Alright! Quickly, let this uncle take Zhang Fan out of here!"

Seeing this, Uncle Mo's eyes were filled with complicated emotions!

After Ma Minghao carried Zhang Fan, he took them both out!

He finally spoke, "Minghao! What's going on with these people? What are you trying to do?"

Do you know anything about them?

"Don't let the wolf into the house!"

As Ma Minghao walked, he said, "Uncle Mo! Don't worry, I know what I'm doing!"

"But! You probably don't know what you're doing!"

Upon hearing this, Uncle Mo's face immediately darkened!

What do you mean by that?

"Could it be that I've been doing something underhanded behind your back?"

Ma Minghao stared straight at him!

"Uncle Mo! I don't want to say anything too harsh! I know exactly what you're thinking!"

"We both understand why Zhang Fan went to kill Ji Wenxuan and the others!"
