Chapter 207: Killing like crazy, bloodthirsty and cruel, the murderous king...
"I didn't know that the prince had arrived in Qucheng. I am sorry for not coming to greet you!"
County Magistrate Fu wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and glared at Jiang Shouzheng secretly.
Jiang Shouzheng was very worried and didn't dare to speak. He could only stammer and try to reduce his presence.
Song Jiuyuan sneered, "Master Fu is very busy, I wonder if my schedule is normal."
There was sarcasm in these words. Magistrate Fu knew that something was wrong, so he had no choice but to welcome the person in.
Jiang Wan and the others also got off the carriage. Qucheng was indeed a poor place, and even the county government office was shabby.
Following him inside, Jiang Wan carefully observed the surroundings. County Magistrate Fu wanted to take people to the reception hall.
Song Jiuyuan said with a straight face, "Master Fu, is there something you want to hide from me? That's why you won't let me into your office?"
“No…no!”
County Magistrate Fu was overwhelmed as he did not expect Song Jiuyuan to come so suddenly.
Even the tasks assigned by the superiors have not been implemented yet.
Song Jiuyuan had already taken the seat where County Magistrate Fu usually sat, and he was full of imposing manner.
"Master Fu, please explain why the entrance fee is so expensive."
Jiang Wan helped Madam Song find a place to sit down, and everyone watched Song Jiuyuan handle official business.
Master Fu gritted his teeth and explained, "Your Majesty, you don't know, and I can't do anything about it.
Several villages near Qucheng have suffered from snowstorms. I am not taking advantage of the opportunity to make money, but to control the number of people entering the city.
If the people all go into the city and cannot buy food, riots will surely break out.”
"Have you reported the snowstorm?"
Song Jiuyuan tapped the tabletop lightly with his fingertips, his eyes fierce, and County Magistrate Fu was so frightened that his hair went numb.
“It has been reported.”
He bent his waist and said in a humble and flattering voice, "It's just that the entire Jiuzhou is now in disaster.
The imperial court is not disbursing funds so quickly, and the prefect is also thinking of countermeasures!"
"hehe……"
Jiang Wan couldn't help but sneer. This man was as cowardly as a mouse, but he didn't say a single word of truth.
She was disgusted with this parasite to the extreme.
County Magistrate Fu suddenly raised his eyes, a cold light flashed across his eyes, and when he met Jiang Wan's cold eyes, he suddenly lowered his head.
"I think you won't cry until you see the coffin."
"Song Yi!"
Song Jiuyuan waved his hand, and Song Yi stepped forward and pressed County Magistrate Fu to the ground.
"Master Fu, our prince is impatient and doesn't like beating around the bush. You'd better stop saying these polite words. He doesn't like to hear them."
It's okay to speak official language in front of others, but not in front of Song Jiuyuan.
County Magistrate Fu never expected that Song Jiuyuan would be so brutal and would not care at all that he was a county magistrate appointed by the imperial court.
His eyes widened in fear, "Your Highness, I...I follow the prefect's orders in all my actions."
"Song Yi!"
Song Jiuyuan took a square towel and wiped the sword that Jiang Wan gave him bit by bit. He looked inexplicably creepy.
Song Yi understood immediately, and the sharp sword fell directly on County Magistrate Fu's neck, and spots of blood spread on his neck.
County Magistrate Fu was so frightened that his head felt dizzy and yellow water stains appeared under his body.
Song Jiuyuan smiled evilly, "I guess Master Fu doesn't know what the people in Kyoto say about me.
Killing people without restraint, being bloodthirsty and cruel, the King of Hell who demands death... these are not just legends."
"Your humble servant...Your humble servant is an official appointed by His Majesty himself."
Magistrate Fu appears to be powerful but is actually weak. An official appointed by the emperor himself must be taken back to Kyoto for trial even if he has committed a crime.
Jiang Wan couldn't help but sneer, "Pfft... Li'er, how can there be such naive people in this world?"
"I'm not naive. I guess there's someone up there."
Song Jiuli let out a click of the tongue, and County Magistrate Fu's heart beat wildly at his words.
I thought Song Jiuyuan would be a little afraid. After all, he is now a general without troops. Jiuzhou is so big, I don't think he would dare to act recklessly.
Unexpectedly, Song Jiuyuan suddenly put the sword back into the scabbard and raised the corner of his mouth playfully.
"When I entered the city, Magistrate Fu had already died suddenly. What do you think of this reason?"
“Excellent.”
Song Jiuchi echoed, "Wait for His Majesty to send someone to investigate the cause of death and the body..."
"I said it! I said it!!!"
County Magistrate Fu was so scared that he collapsed on the ground. Everyone was afraid of death, but Song Jiuyuan was so arrogant that he didn't dare to gamble.
"Go ahead."
Song Jiuyuan suddenly stood up and said, "If you keep going around in circles, I don't have the patience."
"It's the prefect!"
Magistrate Fu spoke hurriedly: "The prefect learned that Jiuzhou was given to the prince by the emperor.
Then he had ulterior motives and wanted to collect more money before the prince arrived.
As for the rest, the prefect did not tell me, so I just did my job."
What's the use of the prefect's money-making? Fu Zhixian, a small county magistrate, is not qualified to know.
Song Jiuyuan's slender, distinct knuckles fell on Magistrate Fu's shoulder, "Write down everything you know and the recent events in Qucheng.
Tomorrow morning, I want to see these, as well as the solution to the snowstorm, and submit them together."
"yes!"
County Magistrate Fu was helped up by someone and managed to save his life.
"Don't worry, Your Majesty. I will keep my mouth shut about what happened today."
"It would be better."
Song Jiuyuan walked out of the hall, and County Magistrate Fu hurriedly trotted after him.
"I will personally escort the prince to the post station."
“No need.”
Song Jiuyuan refused coldly, and County Magistrate Fu had no choice but to send someone to lead the way and take them to the post station.
This time Song Jiuyuan did not refuse. He walked away and told Song Yi to send someone to keep an eye on the county magistrate.
If he had known better, Song Jiuyuan could have spared his life.
"Brother, are we leaving just like this?"
Song Jiuchi was quite unwilling, and Song Jiuli twitched his lips in annoyance.
"Are you planning to live in the county government office?"
"That's not the case."
Song Jiuchi scratched his head and asked doubtfully: "What should we do next?"
"Reorganize Qucheng, and then go to Jiuzhoufu City."
Song Jiuyuan looked up at the sky. To catch a thief, you must first catch the leader. The prefect is in the city.
If we take over the provincial capital, the entire Jiuzhou will be within our reach.
Several people arrived at the entrance of the post station, carrying their luggage. Jiang Wan was a little confused about how to start the conversation.
It was easy to face Song Jiuyuan, but she just didn't know how to tell Madam Song and the others that they were breaking up.
Song Jiuyuan probably saw through it, pulled the man aside and said gently:
"Wan Wan, wait a little longer. After I finish dealing with the affairs in Qucheng, let's go to the government office in Fucheng together to settle the divorce, okay?"
All he could think of was to delay it for as long as possible, but Jiang Wan only wanted to cut off ties with him.
Hearing this, Jiang Wan hesitated, "But..."
But she didn't want everyone in Jiuzhou to know that she was his princess, otherwise how would she cope with the future?
"I, Song Jiuyuan, keep my word and will never lie to you."
Song Jiuyuan was about to swear an oath after hearing this, and Jiang Wan could only helplessly say, "Okay, let's talk about it after we get to the capital."
The economy in the capital is more developed, so it would be better for her to do business there.
Thinking of this, she inexplicably breathed a sigh of relief and followed everyone else to move their luggage into the post station.
Not only Song Jiuyuan, but even Jiang Wan thought that County Magistrate Fu would be more obedient.
Unexpectedly, during dinner, County Magistrate Fu sent ten exotic beauties, and everyone in Lei's house was stunned.
