Chapter 187: Blow the Dog's Head

The patrol house was not big. After passing through several small paths, Jiang Zhiyu saw the servant running away.

He was standing in front of the granary, directing people to carry grain bags outside.

"Hurry up! Take less bags and put more bags in the small granary. If anyone asks, lead them to the small granary. Be strict with your mouth. If you ruin the patrol, think about it yourself."

Jiang Zhiyu wrote down the route and retreated quietly.

On the other side, no matter how Liu Zhijie tried to hint, Xu Yaowen still did not reveal Jiang Zhiyu's identity. After several rounds of this, Liu Zhijie suddenly realized that something was wrong.

Where are the people? !

As soon as his face changed, he saw Jiang Zhiyu coming in from the front door, holding a plum blossom picked from somewhere.

Liu Zhijie breathed a sigh of relief, because plum blossoms were only in the courtyard of his concubine to the west, and the granary was to the east.

He raised the corners of his lips slightly, and before he could say anything, he saw Jiang Zhiyu pointing a black object at him.

Liu Zhijie: “???”

“Sir, what is this?” He stood up, although he didn’t know what it was, but his intuition told him that the thing must be very dangerous, and he should stay away from it.

Wherever he moved, Jiang Zhiyu’s gun was pointed at that place.

[I've already told you that I'm going to blow your head off. Anyway, I know where the granary is. Although it's a bargain for you to be shot directly, the people of Jinzhou can't wait if they continue to play along with you.]

"My dear..." Liu Zhijie froze when he saw her murderous eyes. Just as he stretched out his hand to grab the servant standing next to him and tried to use him to block him, he heard

a "bang".

The bullet passed through his eyebrows. Liu Zhijie's eyes widened, and he fell backwards with horror on his face, and he was dead instantly.

Xu Yaowen: "???"

He Yanting: "!"

Everything happened too fast. Before Xu Yaowen could react, Liu Zhijie had already fallen to the ground.

The servants serving beside them were also stunned. After a long while, they screamed "Ah".

"There's an assassin! There's an assassin!"

The guards in the mansion came in response. Xu Yaowen and He Yanting stood up at the same time to protect Jiang Zhiyu behind them. The guards formed a circle and surrounded them, with their guns pointed at them.

But after the death of the patrol, they lost their backbone and their eyes were full of confusion.

Jiang Zhaorong walked into the mansion and saw this scene.

"???"

He took a few steps forward and shouted: "What are you doing! Where are your masters?"

Another one?

The guards looked at each other, and one of them asked cautiously: "Who are you?"

The servant next to Jiang Zhaorong said in a sharp voice: "How dare you! This is the Prime Minister. Your patrol officer is here. Come out and meet him!"

Prime Minister?!

As if he had found his backbone, the guard couldn't wait to say: "Prime Minister, you have to make the decision for our master." He pointed at Jiang Zhiyu who was protected behind him: "It was this woman. I don't know what hidden weapon she used to kill the patrol officer!"

Jiang Zhaorong: "???"

Killing people in public?

Jiang Zhaorong's first feeling was that it was absurd, but seeing that Jiang Zhiyu did not refute it, he looked over and said, "Is what they said true?"

Jiang Zhiyu looked at him directly and said, "Of course."

Jiang Zhaorong's heart sank, and he was just about to think of an excuse to get away with it, but he saw Jiang Zhiyu took out a jade pendant, made of white jade with a dragon, which showed the identity of the person who owned it.

"Seeing this thing is like the emperor coming in person, why don't you kneel down?"

[Oh, so second-year, I like it so much! ]

Xu Yaowen and He Yanting put their fists to their lips, Jiang Zhaorong narrowed his eyes slightly, and saw Jiang Zhiyu threateningly push the jade pendant forward again, then he lifted the hem of his clothes and knelt on his knees.

The others were still hesitating and questioning the authenticity of the jade pendant. Seeing the prime minister kneeling, they knelt down one after another.

"We were ordered by the emperor to investigate the epidemic in Jinzhou, but we saw many refugees outside the city. 'Every family has zombies, and every room has people crying!' Such a tragic situation is rarely seen in the world!"

Everyone lowered their heads. Jiang Zhiyu continued, "The antidote was sent to Jinzhou from Shengjing half a month ago. The quantity is sufficient. Even if one person in Jinzhou takes two pills, there will be no shortage. However, I have seen that there are no people in the villages along the way. The epidemic spreads from one to ten, and from ten to a hundred. Why is it so?!"

The few people who knew the truth lowered their heads even more, and their hearts were pounding as if they were about to jump out of their chests.

"This Liu Zhijie only cares about the city and not the outside. Not only that, he also tortures the people who want to survive. How can such a vicious person be a local official? He is in office, but he is so derelict in his duty. He should be executed on the spot! Prime Minister, do you have any objections?"

How did she know so clearly? Didn't he just come to Jinzhou? ! ! !

The few people under Liu Zhijie were dizzy in their heads, and they didn't know where to put their hands. They were sweating coldly.

The girl in front of them dared to kill even the patrol officer, let alone them!

For a while, everyone was in panic. They knelt on the ground and dared not speak, for fear of being noticed by Jiang Zhiyu.

"I have no objection."

Jiang Zhaorong was surprised and spoke softly.

He was well aware of Jiang Zhiyu's ability. Since she said so, Liu Zhijie should be killed.

The epidemic was serious. Liu Zhijie was obsessed with the antidote. The people could not stay in Jinzhou and would definitely move elsewhere. If the epidemic spread, other cities would fall. Once it came to that point, Tianqi would be seriously injured. It

was not unfair to kill such a stupid person.

However, Jiang Zhaorong frowned slightly.

Here he came again, that inexplicable sense of discord.

He looked at Jiang Zhiyu with a scrutinizing gaze. Where exactly was this place?

Jiang Zhiyu did not look at him again. She leaned close to Xu Yaowen's ear and whispered for a while.

Xu Yaowen nodded and walked straight out of the house.

"I know you were forced to follow orders, but you also helped the tyrant. Now that Liu Zhijie is dead, all matters in Jinzhou are in the hands of the prefect Xu Yaowen. I hope you will realize that you should turn back and atone for your sins."

Jiang Zhiyu said in a stern voice: "Where did Liu Zhijie hide the antidote?"

No one spoke, and no one wanted to be the first to speak out.

Jiang Zhiyu raised her head and glanced at He Yanting. He Yanting flicked his fingers under his robe, and everyone cried out "ouch".

As if a stone caused a thousand waves, fearing that the credit would be taken away by others, several people who knew the truth rushed to speak: "Sir, Sir, I know, it's in the secret room of his bedroom, I'll take you there!"

A man in blue clothes stood up and rolled and crawled, shouting at the top of his voice, and seeing Jiang Zhiyu nod, he couldn't wait to stand beside her with a flattering smile.

"Sir, my name is Qingyi, and I handle all the affairs in this mansion. If you have any questions, just ask me."

[Qingyi? Sounds familiar, have I heard it somewhere before? 】
