After hearing this, everyone reacted and responded one by one: "Yes, the horse bandits were killed in the beginning, how can we be so cowardly and afraid of trouble!"
"Yes, let's go out and fight them. From the sound of it, they have no more than ten people. We have more than a hundred people. We can kill them with just a few shots!"
Just like that, without Xu Jinhuan saying anything, the people in the temple rushed out in a mighty manner. Xu Jinhuan, the person in charge, seemed like a bystander watching a show.
Xu Jinhuan followed the crowd slowly. After walking out of the ruined temple, he saw a group of people wearing detective uniforms and holding swords in their hands driving away the crowd.
"Get out of here, get out of here, don't get in the way of my young master!"
At the same time, he did not forget to proudly raise his noble head and look down at people through his nostrils.
"Don't think you have the strength in numbers. Why don't you go out and ask who is in charge of Tongqiao County? If you don't get out of here, I will make you pay for it!"
After the constable finished speaking, he raised his face again, and his two dark nostrils appeared in front of people again, with snotty nose hair sticking out of his nostrils as if no one was around.
Xu Jinhuan frowned when he saw this, picked up the onion from the person next to him, walked up quickly, and stuffed the onion directly into the constable's nostrils.
I’ve stuck a green onion in a pig’s nose. Let’s see if you dare to act stupid again!
"ah!"
The constable didn't even have time to react before he saw Xu Jinhuan approaching him. He then felt a stinging pain in his nose, and then a smell of blood mixed with onions rushed into his throat.
The constable swallowed a mouthful of blood that tasted like onions and covered his nose.
"She tried to assassinate a government official in public. Everyone, catch her!"
When the people in the exile team saw Xu Jinhuan committing crimes with onions, they were stunned at first. They really didn't expect that onions could hurt people in this day and age.
But after hearing the constable's words, they all rushed to Xu Jinhuan's vicinity quickly. Kong Duiyue even stood beside Xu Jinhuan at a speed that a patient could hardly achieve.
Although he didn't detect any experts among the people on the opposite side, he was still very vigilant.
"If you want to catch Miss Xu, then step over my dead body!"
"Yes, if you want to catch me quickly, just step over my dead body!"
The plump lady was the first one to rush over besides Kong Duiyue. She stretched out her hands to block Xu Jinhuan and shouted loudly to the constables.
Others followed closely and protected Xu Jinhuan firmly in the crowd.
"That's right, if you want to hurt Boss Xu, then you have to step over our dead bodies first!"
"Don't think you can show off just because you're a constable. I've seen all kinds of high-ranking officials over the years. You can only deceive the powerless common people!"
"That's right. When I met the Emperor, they were playing in the mud!"
After everyone finished talking at once, they looked up and down at the constable and the well-dressed young man behind him, then made a disdainful sound of clicking their tongue, looking as if they really disdained them.
These words and actions really frightened the detectives. They looked at each other and silently put away the knives in their hands.
The constable with a nose stuck in the onion thought that he was going to suffer a loss, so he looked at Xu Jinhuan in the crowd with hatred.
"Young master, these people seem to have some abilities. Should we..." A constable approached the young master and whispered.
Unexpectedly, the young man simply threw away his folding fan and fanned himself in a self-righteous manner.
As a result, the air that was fanned back was hot and felt like burning, which made him cough uncontrollably and he threw the fan back.
"Don't say you are my father's men when you go out, you idiots. You are so stupid that you were easily fooled by them."
Upon hearing this, the detectives looked at each other, and then scratched their heads in unison. Were they fooled?
Shouldn't there be?
Sir, have you become stupid from reading too much?
The young man looked at the detectives with disdain. How did his father gather together these cowardly and brainless rubbish?
Alas, life is as lonely as snow!
As the young man was thinking, he subconsciously opened the fan and fanned himself. The hot wind forced him to come back to his senses.
"Ahem, there is one thing these people said that is correct, that is, they are from the capital."
The detectives became even more confused after hearing this. Since they all came from the capital, there was nothing wrong with them thinking that it would be okay to step back. After all, a step back would open up a new world. They couldn't afford to offend the dignitaries in the capital!
I'm afraid that young master has really become stupid from reading too much?
When the young man saw the expressions of the detectives, he understood what they were thinking. He sighed helplessly, thinking that this was a rotten tree that could not be carved.
"You must listen carefully. I only said one thing!"
A constable asked in confusion, "What do you mean, sir?"
The young man waved his hand in disdain, "How can you still understand? Generally speaking, those who have come into contact with the upper class will not gather together to leave the capital. If they do, there is only one possibility..."
A constable quickly took over the conversation and shouted loudly: "I, I, I know, they went out for a long journey together!"
The young man had originally held out a glimmer of hope, but after hearing this, he picked up the folding fan and threw it over.
"Idiot, what do you mean by traveling far away? That's exile from home!"
"ah?"
"ah?!"
The detectives looked at each other in bewilderment. If what the young master said was true, then wouldn’t they have been deceived?
But, that’s not right?
"Sir, who would have the best clothes and food and a carriage to ride if his family's property was confiscated and he was exiled? I am not well educated, so don't lie to me." A constable suddenly spoke up.
The veins on the young man's forehead were about to burst. "It's you again, Liu Youcai. Why didn't you react so quickly when I was doing other things? When you contradicted me, you were the best of two people!"
Liu Youcai didn't hear the irony in the young master's words at all, and replied with great insensitivity: "Hehe, thank you for the compliment, I will continue to work hard in the future!"
The young man was so angry that he shouted, "I didn't praise you!"
Liu Youcai then realized that the young master was angry and quietly shut his mouth.
Only then did the young man have time to turn around and look at the exile team.
In fact, he was a little confused. Logically speaking, these people must have suffered a lot on their way from the capital to Jizhou. They should have been pale and thin, but why were their faces greasy and plump?
Moreover, those officers wearing official boots should be difficult to approach even if they are not ferocious. How could they get along well with the fellow exiles and become brothers?
It’s strange, it’s really strange!
There must be something strange here. If he helps his father find out the reason and then reports it to the higher-ups, maybe his father, who has been a county magistrate for decades, can be promoted.
Thinking of this, a raging fire of war flashed in the young man's eyes.
