"Okay, you're just trying to cause trouble, right? Let's go to the government office now. I want to report you to the squad leader for deliberately causing trouble."
The yamen runner was furious and was about to attack Liu Feng with his martial arts stick.
When the new captain of the city gate saw this, he hurried over to stop the bailiff.
He didn't have the courage to attack the killer in front of him. The body of his predecessor was not even cold yet.
Maybe with another snap, the head would fall off, leaving only a bowl-sized scar on the neck.
"It was he who killed the captain of the city gate."
The new captain of the city gate reminded in a low voice.
This is not only telling this blind man that this person has high fighting power, but also telling him that this person kills without blinking an eye and has the support of people from the Salt and Iron Office behind him.
Although he did not personally witness what happened at the city gate just now, he had heard about it a long time ago.
The yamen runner's face turned pale instantly, and his hand holding the martial arts stick was shaking.
"According to the regulations, I, I should invite you to the government office."
"Such a major event needs to be registered with the Governor's Office."
"Is it so troublesome?"
What Liu Feng did before was to kill the bandits directly and then go to the government office to collect the reward without going through any complicated procedures. So.
"It's very simple. Your Excellency the Governor, do you want the head of this bandit leader or the heads of the entire Feihuoshan bandit group?"
"One head or all the heads?"
"Of course, it's best to wipe them all out."
Liu Feng touched his chin.
"The reward is for the bandit leader's head. If we kill them all, the price won't be enough."
It's just a few silver coins, used to recruit soldiers to suppress bandits. The newly recruited soldiers don't need to eat, drink, defecate or urinate.
There is also training to be done, additional weapons to be purchased, and so on.
This yamen runner is really smart and brave.
He has been guarding here for several years, and this is the first time he has seen someone dare to bargain with the government.
You speak as if the yamen is a grocery store run by your relative.
As if he has great abilities.
"Such a big matter, shouldn't you, a small yamen runner, have the right to decide?"
"Because I have other conditions attached."
"Alright, lead the way. I'd better go and have a good chat with your governor."
Liu Feng shook his head and walked out first.
The yamen runner glanced at the new city gate captain.
"Is he mentally ill? Not only does he complain about the low reward, but he also demands other conditions?"
"If the governor doesn't beat him out, that would be hell."
"What a madman, with a sick mind."
The new captain could only shake his head.
He couldn't figure out who this person was.
"No matter what, let's follow and take a look."
"I'll go take a look too, and report to the Governor in detail what happened at the city gate."
The way to the governor's office is easy to find.
Liu Feng ignored the two people following him and walked quickly to a place with fewer people.
The governor's office is a special place after all. Usually, the main street is in front of such a place, but there are very few ordinary people near the main gate of the office.
Ordinary people usually walk on the road opposite the main gate.
When they arrived at the gate of the governor's office, the bailiff went in to report. It happened that the governor was sitting in the court to hear a case.
According to the guards, a young woman committed adultery, killed her husband and fled.
Liu Feng was curious. He had never seen the trial process before. He had been tried once before, but how could the trial in Wenhuang County be compared with the governor's office?
When Liu Feng came in, he saw the governor banging the gavel.
This was originally a very small case.
The governor directly sentenced the young woman to be paraded through the streets and then beheaded.
Liu Feng only took one look and he could conclude that the young woman was wronged.
But he didn't want to bother with this matter, so he just turned a blind eye.
When the young woman was taken away, she was still screaming heart-wrenchingly, saying that she was wronged and that the governor was taking human lives lightly.
Saying things like even if I become a ghost I will seek revenge.
As a judge in charge of hearing cases, he has seen too many such things, so he doesn't care about the prisoner's curse at all.
When this matter was over, the governor sat high under the plaque with a bright mirror hanging high, rubbing his eyes tiredly.
"What's going on?"
The bailiff hurriedly bent over and trotted forward.
"Reporting to the Lord, this person has taken down the Feihuoshan Mountain List."
"Just take it off, register it, and let him do it."
"There are more than just one or two people who have taken down the list. The bandits from Feihuoshan are still here, but the people who took down the list have all turned to bones."
"Do you still need to tell me these little things?"
The governor frowned, obviously displeased.
The governor looks very young, which is understandable. He is a disciple of the emperor and was sent to Youzhou after Emperor Shunde ascended the throne.
A true confidant of the emperor, in charge of all affairs of a state.
For such a young governor, this is a critical moment to display his talents and ambitions.
However, to handle the affairs of a state, many things need to be done personally. Although there are many officials in the governor's office, the final decision-making power lies with him. It is no exaggeration to say that he is busy with all kinds of affairs every day.
So it looks a bit tired.
"Your Excellency, he said the reward was too little and that he wanted to discuss terms with you, the Governor."
"You are such a bold lunatic, you despise the small amount of silver. Why did you reveal the list?"
"You're so bold to desecrate official documents! Come, drag him away, give him fifty lashes, and throw him out."
