Chapter 147: The County Magistrate's Panic

At night, a ladybug flew over all the buildings in the county government. When the ladybug approached a yard at the back, it encountered a layer of gray light shield, and blue flames emerged and instantly turned it into ashes.

Zhou An and Zhou Lingsha squatted on the roof outside the county mansion. Zhou Lingsha stopped casting the spell and frowned, saying, "No, check all the places in the county mansion. There is no problem. Only the backyard cannot be approached. The whole yard is protected by the formation."

Zhou An was lying on the roof, drinking from a wine jug in one hand and holding a kind of dried fruit similar to pistachios in the other. It tasted very good and was a snack unique to Dingyang Tower.

"Madam Bai Gu is a White Bone Spirit who has reached the Great Perfection of the Innate Realm. How can you deal with her with your unorthodox methods?"

Zhou An tilted his head back and poured the wine into his mouth. He stopped only after taking a full sip, letting the wine slide down his throat beautifully, enjoying the aroma of the wine and its smoothness and mellowness.

Zhou Lingsha snatched his wine pot and took a sip as well. After wiping the wine from the corner of her mouth, she said, "So what do you say we should do? I've tried everything from insect control to ghost control, spells, and the Sky Eye, but nothing works."

"Girl, do you really think I asked the Jinyiwei to find evidence of the county magistrate's guilt? I am the emperor, and I found out that he is in cahoots with my enemies. Do I need evidence to kill him?" Zhou An said with a smile.

"Then what do you want us to investigate? Is it fun? You might as well let me have a good time in Dingyang County." Zhou Lingsha glared.

"I just want Madam Bai Gu to know that the emperor has already noticed it and asked the Jinyiwei to test it first. She will be afraid, so she will seek help." Zhou An said.

"Would a person who has attained the Great Perfection of Innateness be afraid?" Zhou Lingsha was surprised, with an expression of disbelief on her face.

“Don’t think that people with high cultivation levels are not afraid of death. Look at the King of Ten Thousand Demons. He is extremely afraid of death. Even though he looks fierce, he is more cowardly than anyone else when it comes to endangering his life.

Why did Mrs. Bai Gu hide in the county government? In her eyes, a small county government could be easily crushed. This proved that she was cautious in her work. She used the power of the mortal officials to help him collect blood food for his cultivation. In this way, even if something went wrong, she could leave at any time, and the family of the county government would die.

This time she was injured by Miro, and she knew she couldn't win. When she found out that the enemy was coming again, what do you think she would do? "

Zhou An conjured up another pot of wine and started drinking it. The wine tasted very good, made from fruits, and had a low alcohol content, making it very suitable as a beverage.

"Tsk, I thought you were deliberately following us to check on the county governor, and then when they got mad, you showed off your status as the emperor and scared them to death, and used this as an excuse to show off and slap them in the face.

Then, if you can remove a big cancer from Dingyang County and win the favor of the people, you, as the emperor, will be loved by the people here, and maybe you can win the hearts of some beautiful women and bring them back to the palace. " Zhou Lingsha looked like she was wrong about you.

The corner of Zhou An's mouth twitched. This girl is really good at imagining things. Isn't this just the plot of Emperor Qianlong's tour of the south of the Yangtze River on Earth? But it is really fun to think about these things. If you really meet a top-notch beauty, you can give it a try.

It's a rare opportunity to be an emperor. He has to love both the country and the beauty. He is not interested in being an emperor and practicing monogamy here. Being loyal is something that only noble people can do. He is a vulgar man at heart and he has to get whoever he likes.

"You don't act like a princess at all. You think about all kinds of messy things all day long. Just watch and see how Madam White Bone will respond." Zhou An said this, but in his heart he actually agreed with Zhou Lingsha's idea.

In the backyard hall where Madam Bai Gu lived, Yu Jun Shou ran in in a panic. Seeing the maid here, she immediately asked, "Where is Madam?"

"Madam is in meditation, Lord Yu, please come back tomorrow." The maid stopped him and said.

"Please inform her that something big has happened. Her Majesty must make the decision." County Magistrate Yu looked anxious. He knew that each of the maids in front of him was a demon who had practiced for hundreds of years, so how could they dare to act presumptuous?

"Madam has instructed that no one is allowed to disturb us. Lord Yu, please go back." The maid had a cold expression on her face. She didn't even look at the county magistrate.

"This matter concerns the life and death of the Yu family, and the madam will definitely be implicated. It must be reported. If it is late, the consequences will be unpredictable." County Magistrate Yu shouted loudly. He knew the rules here. If he was not really unable to handle it, he would never dare to shout here.

"How dare you! If you dare to make loud noises again, I will be rude to you." The maid was angry and there was murderous intent in her eyes. Her hands turned into demon claws and her eyes glowed green.

Lord Yu gritted his teeth and was about to shout, but Mrs. White Bone's voice inside said, "What's the matter?"

Anger was already revealed in her voice, and although she didn't say anything, Yu Junshou knew that if he didn't give her a reason to satisfy her, he might be eaten by her.

The two maids at the door immediately bowed and called her "Madam".

Madam Bai Gu walked out expressionlessly and sat in the living room, looking at the anxious Yu Junshou.

“Madam, my people discovered this afternoon that some Jinyiwei were investigating everyone in the Yu family, even the monks who had dealings with us.

Our Yu family has always been cautious and it is impossible for us to alert the Jinyiwei. I guess it may be related to the fight between the madam and the emperor during the day, and he has already traced it here. "Yu County Magistrate said immediately.

"You are just a Jinyiwei, and you are scared like this. How dare you yell in front of me?" Mrs. Bai Gu showed anger.

"Madam, you know that Dingyang Tower is our Yu family's property. Our people saw Zhou Lingsha appear. She is the commander-in-chief of the Jinyiwei and has appeared many times, so our people were able to get out.

There is also a young man who is very close to Zhou Lingsha. I am worried that this person may be the emperor. Unfortunately, the emperor rarely appears, and none of our people recognize him, so we cannot be sure. "

After County Magistrate Yu finished speaking, he stood respectfully in front of her, waiting for Madam Bai Gu's instructions.

Not to mention the emperor, even Zhou Lingsha was something the Yu family couldn't afford to offend. Although this woman was only 13 years old, she was the commander-in-chief of the Embroidered Uniform Guard and a little princess of the current dynasty. She had a noble status and real power. Most importantly, she was an innate cultivator. How could the Yu family dare to provoke her?

Madam Bai Gu frowned. She naturally didn't care about the Jinyiwei, but if the emperor really came, she might not be his opponent as she hadn't recovered from her injuries yet. What she was most worried about was Mi Luo, as the Red Blood Sutra was too terrifying.

She thought for a moment and said, "Now is not the time to go to war with Emperor Qianyuan. You can try to delay the time. As long as the Jinyiwei doesn't find me, it will be fine. If you just investigate officials, it doesn't matter if some people die. There are plenty of replacements."

"Madam, there is no need for you to worry about the mere Jinyiwei. Let me take care of them. If Emperor Qianyuan is with us, he will try to find a way to leave. If not, just kill them." said the maid next to her.

Yu Jun Shou said quickly: "No, every Jinyiwei has a life-protecting amulet on them. If we kill them, it will definitely alert Qianjing, especially Zhou Lingsha, who is said to have a magical treasure. We can't be reckless."

The maid looked disdainful, thinking that only the weak would resort to tricks.

"What good ideas do you have?" asked Mrs. White Bone.

"The Imperial Guards are all pretending to be martial arts heroes, so why don't we take advantage of their own tactics and let the independent cultivators and the immortal cultivation sects here deal with them? As long as they don't reveal their identities as the Imperial Guards, these cultivators will definitely give them face.

This way, even if the higher-ups investigate, they won't be able to trace us, and we can use them to test whether the emperor is really here." Yu Junshou said respectfully.

"Well, that's good, why don't you do it!" Mrs. Bai Gu frowned. He had a good idea, so why bother her.

Yu County Magistrate was already a shrewd man, so he could guess Madam Bai Gu's thoughts, and quickly said, "Madam, I have asked someone to check whether that young man is the emperor. If he is, I am afraid that you will need to take action."

"Okay, I understand. Find out if the other party is Emperor Qianyuan first and then report to me."

Madam Bai Gu stood up and went back to her bedroom. When she reached the door, she stopped, turned around, looked at Yu Junshou and said, "Remember, this is the last time. If you disturb me when I am in meditation again, you know the consequences."

After Mrs. Bai Gu finished speaking, she walked out the door. County Magistrate Yu bowed and saw her off, saying that he would never dare to do that.
