The subdued black-clad assassins all fell to the ground the next moment, foaming at the mouth and with their eyes rolled back.
"Master, they all committed suicide by taking poison." Han Yi checked and reported to Wei Qing.
"They are all professional killers." Wei Qing said.
Wei Qing turned to look at Lord Wu and Madam Wu, and asked with concern, "Dad, Mom, are you okay?"
Madam Wu rushed over and checked Wei Qing from head to toe. Seeing that he was fine, she breathed a sigh of relief: "I'm fine."
Lord Wu walked forward a little, to the side of Madam Wu, but his eyes turned to the man in black lying on the ground: "Whose man could it be?"
"It's either the third prince or the sixth prince." Wei Qing said.
Lord Wu's face was cold: "Han Yi, search them."
Han Yi searched all the dozen or so men in black but found nothing.
Lord Wu frowned and said, "I can't find the person behind this."
"Dad, this is not important. As long as we report this matter objectively to... the emperor, they will start to fight each other." Wei Qing's mouth curled up in a cruel arc.
Lord Wu looked at him and saw a cold look on his face.
The innocent little prince who was pampered in the past finally grew up and became a smart and cold-blooded adult.
He didn't know whether to feel relieved or pity.
The most ruthless family is the imperial family. Being born in an imperial family will wear away your innocence and humanity, and make you cold.
Miss Mei actually doesn't want him to become like this.
But how can I survive if I don’t become like this?
After spending some time together, he felt that the child had a very cold personality and he couldn't get into his heart.
I just hope he won't be completely blinded by hatred and have only hatred in his heart.
He hopes that Miss Mei's child can live a normal life.
Lord Wu sighed in his heart.
"That's right." Lord Wu looked at the sky and said, "Let's continue on our journey. We'll reach Qinghe County sooner so we can rest."
Wei Qing nodded.
The tea was highly poisonous and the guard who drank it was beyond saving.
Wei Qing looked at the guards, frowning, "Give them a proper burial and take care of their families."
Wei Qing left two people behind to clean up the mess and took the rest to Qinghe County.
The next morning, a large group of people entered the city gate of Qinghe County.
There were already people waiting at the city gate.
"Excuse me, are you the newly appointed County Magistrate?"
Wei Qing opened the curtain and saw a man standing outside. He was short and thin, with a long, slender face full of smiles. One of his hands seemed injured and was in a sling.
Wei Qing glanced at him and nodded slightly: "Exactly."
"Sir, my name is Sun Huai. I'm the county chief. I've come here specially to wait for you. Your mansion is ready. Shall I take you there?" Sun Huai said with a flattering look on his face.
Wei Qing nodded: "Thank you for your help."
"Can I take your carriage?" Sun Huai continued to ask.
He really wanted to get close to Wei Qing.
Wei Qing didn't say anything and just let the curtain down.
Sun Huai felt embarrassed. It was difficult to talk to the new county magistrate. He was unhappy in his heart, but he kept a smile on his face and looked at the coachman.
"My carriage is in front, just follow me."
Having said that, he climbed onto his carriage.
The carriage was moving through the bustling market. After about half an hour, it finally arrived at its destination.
Wei Qing got off the carriage first, followed by Lord Wu and Madam Wu.
"Sir, and old master and old lady, I have already asked people to clean the county magistrate's mansion. Now it is clean. You three can just move in." Sun Huai said.
Wei Qing didn't say anything, but Lord Wu had a serious expression on his face.
Madam Wu said, "Thank you for your hard work."
Sun Huai immediately laughed: "It's not hard at all. This is what I should do. The arrival of the County Magistrate is a blessing for the people of Qinghe County..."
He was eloquent and talked non-stop, praising Wei Qing to the skies.
The guards were moving things in, and Lord Wu and his wife entered the mansion, ready to find a place to rest.
Sun Huai kept following Wei Qing and talking.
"Sir, everyone is looking forward to the new county magistrate taking office, and several colleagues want to visit you. My hands are not convenient, otherwise I could help with some work. There is also a chief secretary, Lord Cao, who I don't know what he is busy with. He didn't come to help when you came." Sun Huai said.
He was a man who was very good at adapting to the situation, and he praised the previous county magistrate highly, becoming his confidant. Sun Huai was very good at scheming, and as long as he understood the character of the new county magistrate, it was only a matter of time before he became his confidant.
As soon as the new county magistrate arrived, he seized the opportunity, tried to curry favor with him, and then spoke ill of Cao Ji, so that the new county magistrate would have a bad impression of Cao Ji.
Sun Huai's calculations were clacking.
"Lord Cao has a violent temper. He broke my arm just because of a disagreement, so don't blame him..." Sun Huai said as he followed behind Wei Qing.
Wei Qing walked into the mansion, and Sun Huai wanted to follow him in, but Wei Qing stopped at the door. His tall body blocked Sun Huai's way in.
"grown ups……"
"I'm going to rest now, you go back."
Having said that, Wei Qing closed the door.
Sun Huai stared at the tightly closed door of the mansion, his face suddenly turned cold. It seemed that the new county magistrate had a bad temper.
Wei Qing entered the main courtyard, found a room and lay down.
After traveling for a month, most people would have died of exhaustion.
But he was physically strong and didn't feel anything.
He was lying in the room, with only one thought in his mind: to see his wife as soon as possible.
However, he cannot be impulsive.
The net has been cast, he has entered the game, and many people are watching his every move, so he must be cautious at every step.
He is the son of Lord Wu and the newly appointed magistrate of Qinghe County. According to his new identity, he and his wife have no intersection.
He definitely couldn't go see his wife in broad daylight.
Wei Qing could only suppress his restless thoughts, jumped up, and did a set of punches in the room to distract himself from his thoughts.
In the afternoon, Sun Huai came again.
"Master, Sun Huai said he saw you didn't have anyone to serve you, so he sent over a few maids. Would you like to accept them?" Han Yi asked. "Those maids are all young and beautiful. Sun Huai has some serious plans."
"Rejected him." Wei Qing said.
Han Yi immediately informed Sun Huai of his decision.
Sun Huai was disappointed again.
The new county magistrate looks to be in his early twenties, full of youthful vigor and vitality. How could he not be interested in beautiful women?
This new county magistrate seems to be more difficult to deal with than the previous one.
Sun Huai walked away embarrassedly.
Wei Qing didn't take Sun Huai to heart. He was just waiting for time to pass.
After waiting until late at night, Wei Qing got up and quietly left the County Magistrate's Mansion.
Wei House.
Tangli lay on the bed and fell asleep.
She saw her husband in her dream. Her husband kept clinging to her, wanting kisses and hugs, which was very annoying.
Finally, there was a knock on the door, which woke her up.
Tangli opened his eyes and found that it was just a dream. He felt like there was a hole in his heart and felt extremely uncomfortable.
Who on earth ruined her beautiful dream?
Tangli got up and angrily pushed the door open. But when he saw the person standing outside, he was stunned.
