Chapter 514 Don’t say it, really don’t say it!

An avenger who doesn't want to return to the capital to kill again is not a good magistrate.

During the time when Chu Zi'an was caught up in the controversy surrounding high-ranking officials, he had been carefully collecting information in Beijing. Although the case of Qu Kaiyu's corruption investigation did not cause any major stir, he still knew some of the inside story.

only……

Chu Zi'an looked at Wang Qizi's face, which was full of confidence that he had won, and fell into deep doubt.

The Wang family... doesn't know the news about this yet?

This shouldn't happen...

【Aoao——】

[Cheng, Cheng, Cheng, just say it, how come this person didn’t even know that his backer had fallen, so this is what’s going on——]

Chu Zi'an came back to his senses and glanced casually at the young man on the other side of the court, his tongue constantly moving against his gums.

If you found out, just tell me directly. Why do you need to lay such a long mat? !

There is an impatient person sitting here!

Fortunately, the kid didn’t keep them waiting too long. Almost at the moment when this thought came to his mind, the young voice in his heart rang out again -

【Ha ha ha ha--】

[This Wang family is so funny - they have been relying on the fact that they have relatives with high-ranking officials in the capital to gain a firm foothold in Xiyuan City for so many years, but that "sister" was just a concubine. They didn't want the people in Xiyuan City to know about this, so they pretended to be profound and never mentioned the person's name, only saying that there was such a high-ranking official relative in the capital...]

[It also makes it easier for them to continue to act pretentiously. ]

[The boss was afraid that if this matter was leaked, it would lead to the rivals they had been building up over the years to take advantage of the situation, so he deliberately did not tell Wang Qizi, hoping to confuse the rivals through his arrogant behavior...]

A few people turned their heads and looked at Wang Qizi's smug look, then nodded with a look of realization.

Don’t say it, really don’t say it!

If this idiot hadn't revealed Qu Kaiyu's name, they would have really thought that this family had some important connections in the capital!

[Puff—]

"puff--"

Chu Zi'an, who was sitting behind the desk, couldn't help himself and also made a sound of trying not to laugh but to look decent.

When he first arrived in Xiyuan City, the people around him collected a list of "people not to mess with" for him. At that time, he did some research on the situation of the Wang family.

Almost everyone in Xiyuan City knew that the Wang family had a high-ranking relative in the capital, but no one knew that person's name. This situation should not have been enough to arouse everyone's jealousy, until one day the Wang family was involved in a lawsuit, but was quickly released by the new prefect...

This delicate relationship was only then confirmed, and people reluctantly gave in to them on many issues.

But I didn't expect that the truth would be like this!

Wang Qizhi: “…”

Wang Qizhi: “???”

What's wrong with this group of people?

Are you scared?!

After he said that, he waited proudly for the people around him to kneel down and beg for mercy, even if that effect could not be achieved...

At the very least, she should look at him with trembling eyes and say something submissive with trembling mouth -

What's the point of looking at him with such a sly expression, whether to laugh or not? !

Wang Qizi's anger was ignited once again, and a string of harsh words burst out of his mouth.

"This young master warns you, my brother-in-law has real power in the capital. If you don't want to--"

The string of harsh words that followed were automatically filtered by everyone into a long string of gibberish. Everyone looked at Wang Qizi, whose face was red with anger, with particularly kind eyes, as if they were looking at their own angry cats and dogs.

As the saying goes, when a person is weak enough, even his anger seems like he is just acting coquettishly.

This is how Wang Qizi is now viewed in their eyes.

However, the little guys obviously could not reach the same mature state of mind as the adults. Jiang Yingcheng felt that this incompetent and furious adult was really noisy. He had already started to look around the court, trying to find a handy weapon to knock out this overly noisy adult with a stick.

[It’s so annoying! This annoying “young master” is so annoying!!]

[Is there no one who can shut this person up?! ! ! ! ]

Chu Zian finally had enough of the commotion and interrupted the farce with a light cough.

"Wang Qizhi," he said with a smile in his voice, "I have just arrived in Xiyuan City and I didn't know your family had such relatives."

Wang Qizi shook his long sleeves, glanced at the people opposite him with a proud look, and finally looked reservedly at the former governor of Xixi who finally opened up: "This young master does not want to bully others by taking advantage of his power. As long as you can make a fair judgment——"

"puff--"

Someone behind me made another strange sound.

The expression on Wang Qizi's face was about to crack.

What's wrong with you lowly people?!

Can you please respect the objective law of “scholars, farmers, merchants and artisans”? !

"but--"

Chu Zi'an spoke at this time: "I heard that Lord Qu Kaiyu had been dismissed by His Majesty for corruption and bribery."

Wang Qizhi was stunned: "What——"

What? ! !

He unconsciously took a few steps forward: "Impossible!"

"We don't have any in our house—"

Wang Qizi wanted to say that even his family had not received such news, so how could a small prefect like you say such things? But he suddenly recalled that there was a period of time before when the atmosphere in his home was very strange.

His father and his elder brother sighed all day long, as if something serious had happened. Whenever he went to ask them, they were always sent back with a few words.

After a long time, the situation was somewhat relieved. However, from then on, those two people were no longer as carefree and extravagant as before.

so……

Wang Qizi turned around with a dazed expression and looked at the thugs behind him, as if he wanted to regain a sense of security from them.

So, could the news the prefect said be...

“Boom!”

Suddenly, a loud drum sound was heard outside the government office.

Wang Qizi, who was deep in thought, was frightened by the voice and shivered violently.

Immediately afterwards, dense drum beats rang out one after another.

A moment later, an official ran up to the court and reported loudly, "Sir, someone outside the yamen is beating a drum, saying that they have caught a gang of child traffickers who have been kidnapping children during this period!"

Chu Zian was shocked: "Pass it on!"

After the official ran out again, Chu Zian finally reacted -

Although the case at hand is minor and not as heart-wrenching as the case of missing children in Xiyuan City recently, but...

His hesitant gaze fell on the small figure in front of him.

However, if what the young man said in his heart was true, then his identity was not someone he could easily offend.

If he cannot be properly dealt with, he will probably never have to think about returning to the capital.

only--

Before he could come up with a foolproof plan, a voice suddenly rang out from outside the door -

"Young Master?!"

Chu Zian was stunned.
