Chapter 228: The Governor of the East
Greetings, everybody. ”
Zhang Feng's gaze swept over the monks of various sects hidden in the distance.
When they saw Zhang Fengwang coming, they were so frightened that they turned around and ran.
Zhang Feng didn't pay attention to them, but looked at the medicinal herb courtyard in Wanlin Gate.
There are still a lot of medicinal herbs waiting to be picked in it, and this cannot be wasted.
Within the short term.
After the medicinal materials were collected, Zhang Feng roughly counted, and there were fifteen strains of 'Centennial Ginseng'!
This one is worth a high-grade spirit stone.
Although these spirit grasses are not particularly precious items to the current self, they are better than nothing, and they are better than being all here.
Later, he swept the armory and other places, and after taking everything he could, Zhang Feng turned around and left.
One step at a time, it didn't take long to return to Qiguang County, which was still late at night.
Now, the local people, as well as the master who is reading at night in the mansion, and Zhang Er, who is resting, they don't know that their adults went out and destroyed Wanlinmen.
But in the second half of the night.
As those monks left Wanlin Gate, a piece of news came out like the wind.
'Zhang County's order asks Wanlinmen to sin and behead the whole door! ’
Such shocking news, in the afternoon of the next day, basically spread throughout Qiguang County, and also spread to most of Huaihe City.
It's just that the nearby sect heard about it, and their first reaction was not to be surprised by the strength of this county commander, nor to be angry with the imperial court, let alone to take revenge under the banner.
On the contrary, they just want to dissociate themselves from the 'evil way of taking people's incense' like Wanlinmen and maintain their own image of the 'righteous path'.
At least on the bright side, they are all like that.
In this way, their followers will not talk endlessly, and their incense will not be disturbed because of the spread of this matter.
After all, people's incense is one of the cultivation foundations of every sect.
They don't want to give up.
Including them, they are not as desperate as Wanlinmen, and there is no Wanlinmen like Wanlinmen who does not give convenience to the people at all.
At the very least, those big factions will more or less eliminate demons in the territory under their jurisdiction.
But it's also because of the spread of this incident.
It is impossible to say that they secretly have no dissatisfaction with Zhang Feng.
It's all because Wanlin Sect is a cultivator after all, and it belongs to cultivators.
This led to some sects remembering Zhang Feng's name, and they had feelings of 'not seeing' and 'hating' towards this county magistrate.
And so it is today.
On the morning of the third day of Zhang Feng's destruction of Wanlin Gate.
There were two largest sects in Huaihe City, and they jointly wrote a letter and asked their disciples to send it to the Eastern Governor.
On it, the letter said that Zhang Feng was not right, and he wanted to put pressure on the imperial court to see if the imperial court could hand over Zhang Feng or impose punishment on Zhang Feng.
If you don't pay it, you won't return it.
That's not the end of it.
There is only a chance, they don't mind teaching Zhang Feng a lesson in person, letting Zhang Feng remember it for a long time, and then taking back the face of some cultivators by the way.
If the chances are better, then it must be better to kill.
Zhang Feng's matter can be regarded as secretly offending all the cultivators.
Similarly, in the City Lord's Mansion in Huaihe City.
When the city lord heard the report of the chief of the guard, and knew that Zhang Feng had destroyed a sect, he was even more furious, and smashed the table in front of him with a 'snap', and the tea was knocked over to the ground.
"This envelope is simply lawless! Doesn't he know how many cultivators he will offend by doing so? ”
The city lord was angry, and crossed around at the head of the house, "How can I reply to the rest of the sects?" Just this morning, the two heads of the family came to me and asked me how to deal with Zhang Feng's matter."
"The city lord is angry!" The chief of the guard took two steps forward and saluted again, and then followed the words of the city lord: "Zhang Feng, this person killed innocents indiscriminately and disturbed the peace of Qiguang County, and he did violate the law."
The chief of the guard looked at the city lord who was slowly stopping, "Do you want your subordinates to arrest this person?" ”
"Arrested?" The city lord laughed angrily when he heard this, "He can kill the entire Wanlin Gate alone, and you dare to arrest him?" Beware that he will punish you first for the crime of 'committing the following crimes'! ”
"This.." Thinking of this, the chief of the guard thought about it left and right, and felt as if it was really like this.
Then he looked at the angry city lord, and asked cautiously in a whisper, "That... City lord us.."
"Wait for the governor of the east." The city lord took a deep breath, wanting to suppress the anger in his heart, "The letter has been sent for three days, and it should be delivered to the boundary of Liufeng City soon. Especially since this kind of thing happened two days ago, I believe that the governor of the east will also hear about it soon. When the time comes, I'll wait for the Eastern Governor to arrive, and see what the Eastern Governor has to say."
The city lord said that he could only wait for the governor of the east to deal with it.
Because offending all the sects in the territory of a big city is no longer something that he can suppress.
Even if he is the lord of the city, he has to weigh whether the imperial court will abandon the car to protect the marshal, and use his official position in exchange for local peace.
In the end, it was the lives of more than a thousand people.
And later, when the city lord was pondering how to deal with things.
At the same time.
Liufeng City, the backyard of the City Lord's Mansion.
Inside the temporary governor's study.
The governor of the east, who looked more than fifty years, was standing in front of the table, looking at the letters on the table.
At the side of the Eastern Governor, there was also a saber attendant.
"Your Excellency.." The attendant stepped forward at this time and saluted, "These two letters were sent to Liufeng City separately today, saying that they would be handed over to your lordship."
"Hmm." The governor nodded slightly, sat back at the table, and looked at the signature on the letter.
One of them was sent by the lord of the city. It is the one that says that Zhang Feng is not the one.
The other letter was written by the two major sects in Huaihe City. is also talking about Zhang Feng's problem.
The governor of the east glanced twice, and first opened the letter from the city lord of Huaihe City.
At a glance, roughly finished.
The governor of the east did not have any expression on his face, and put down the letter.
When the attendant next to him saw it, he may have a good relationship with the governor of the east, or the governor of the east treats people kindly.
So the attendant didn't have any fear, so he asked about the letter with a smile and said, "My lord, did the prefect of Huaihe City report their city in advance in the letter?"
"It's not about merit and people's livelihood." The governor of the east thought for a few breaths, and handed the letter to the attendant who took it with both hands, "Liangzhi, you have been studying with me for twenty years. You're already twenty-seven this year? ”
"Yes.." The attendant did not read the letter, but bowed in reply.
The governor of the east nodded, and said in a kind voice: "I have been with me for so many years, and I have always been a scholar with us, and I don't have a formal official position. It's not right.."
When the governor of the east said this, he suddenly laughed, "Let outsiders laugh behind my back Zhou Lin is unwilling to let go... If this spreads, who will want to be an official by my side? So the post of county magistrate of Qiguang County, you can go. ”
"Your Excellency.." The attendant was suddenly a little frightened, and vaguely felt a sense of fear that he was unwilling to leave the 'master' and 'home', "The adult treats me like a son, and I am willing to follow the adult in front of and behind me at any time, follow the work of dogs and horses, and repay the adult's nurturing grace back then!" ”
"Huh.." The Eastern Governor shook his head and couldn't help but say, "This matter has been decided, I will inform the prefect of Huaihe City when I arrive, and arrange you to be sent to Qiguang County to serve as the local county commander." I don't know if a good conscience is up to the task? Managing a county well? You must know that this is the best way to repay the court and the teacher. I will not cultivate you for many years. ”
"Your Excellency.." The attendant was a little bitter, knowing that he couldn't persuade him, he was a little embarrassed and said, "If the disciple is in the past, Master Zhang..."
"Something like this has happened, Lord Zhang has already offended many cultivators in Qiguang County."
The governor of the east got up,
At this point, Lord Zhang is no longer able to live in Qiguang County. Now we will go to Huaihe City and deal with this matter. ”
The Eastern Governor walked back to the table, helped the attendant straighten up his somewhat whitish collar, and said with a smile: "Now I will bother with the 'Liangzhi County Order', and tell the prefect of Liufeng City that I will leave Liufeng City today, and I don't need to let him work to prepare the dinner." ”
The words fell.
The governor of the east did not look at the 'letter of the Great Sect' with his eyes, let alone what was written in it, but instead stretched out his hand, and the letter floated into the oil lamp in front of the table, and instantly burned to ashes.
"Go to Qiguang County immediately, I'll see who dares to touch the people of my court.."
