The first county magistrate in history

Chapter 205: Walking into a Trap

Su Xiaoman pulled out a stack of banknotes from her sleeve and placed them on the table, her hands shaking.

The voice trembled: "Sir, one hundred thousand taels..."

Everyone was stunned. This isn't much?

Wu Xiaoyou laughed angrily: "Look at you, you are so useless!"

Su Xiaoman stammered, "It's... it's... gold, a total of... one hundred thousand taels of gold!"

"gold?"

"How many?"

"One hundred thousand taels?"

Wu Xiaoyou and the others' expressions changed drastically.

Qin Zheng had no expression on his face, as if he had expected it.

Lu Dong was shocked: "Is Tian Lizheng really related to that person?"

Tao Yong said solemnly, "Xia Bitu is spending so much money, this village head must be that person's confidant."

Wu Xiaoyou gritted his teeth and said, "Sir, Xia Bitu is an old fox. He doesn't dare to move. Is he using us as a pawn? Return the gold notes and let him solve it himself!"

Whoosh!

Su Xiaoman grabbed the gold note and stuffed it into her sleeve, saying anxiously, "You can't return it. Once you put it in your mouth, no matter how hot it is, you have to swallow it!"

Everyone: "..."

Wu Xiaoyou stared at Su Xiaoman, not knowing whether to laugh or cry. "Do you want to bring disaster upon yourself, my Lord? Even Xia Bitu is afraid of him, and he is powerless to do anything about it. How can he be easy to deal with?"

Su Xiaoman looked at Qin Zheng, her face full of confusion and pain: "I, I believe that adults can solve it."

Wu Xiaoyou: “…”

I was furious: "What's the point of believing it? You little money-grubber, do you want to kill the adults?"

I thought to myself, such a good girl has been led astray by the adults.

This money-grubber is just like an adult!

Qin Zheng suddenly said, "Keep it. Liang Jin needs money!"

Su Xiaoman immediately beamed: "So? I knew nothing could stump us adults!"

Wu Xiaoyou was anxious: "Sir, I know you are even more obsessed with money than Xiaoman, but there is no need for us to take the risk of standing up for Xia Bitu!"

Qin Zheng: “…”

Su Xiaoman: “…”

Tao Yong advised: "Sir, there is really no need to cause trouble for a few silver coins!"

Lu Dong nodded: "This must be a trap set by the old fox!"

Sun Tiezhu said nothing, but looked at Qin Zheng with his big eyes.

I told him that he is in the learning stage now, so he should talk less and watch more!

Qin Zheng said: "Because of us, they failed. If we don't defeat this mysterious force, we will not be safe, and the Empress will not be safe either.

"When we help Xia Bitu, we are also helping ourselves. This man is Xia Bitu's enemy, and he is also our enemy. The Prime Minister and I, when we unite our forces, are stronger than one!"

Wu Xiaoyou was speechless. What did he mean by "for us"? It was obviously for the empress.

Seeing that the adults had made up their minds, Lu Dong said, "I'll go check it out now!"

Qin Zheng shook his head: "We can't investigate. He can even control Xia Bitu. This person is extraordinary. If we investigate, we will alert the enemy!"

Lu Dong: "What should we do then?"

Qin Zheng's eyes were deep: "This time the Black Cavalry showed up, they were not sure if it was my ultimate trump card, so they took the initiative to approach me."

Qin Zheng said, suddenly looked at Su Xiaoman,

Su Xiaoman immediately covered her sleeves tightly: "Sir, what do you want to do?"

Qin Zheng was speechless: "I don't want your gold notes, you stingy person!"

"Hehehe, that's good!" Su Xiaoman's pretty face blushed, but she felt relieved.

Qin Zheng said, "Tianjiazhuang is a farm. The best way to approach it is to supply us with food just like the Prime Minister's Mansion.

Xiao Man, if someone approaches you lately and tries to sell you some food, just accept the offer. "It's like walking into a trap!"

Su Xiaoman nodded, then suddenly shook her head: "No, sir, you forgot, I am the director of the Tourism Bureau now, and I am not responsible for buying groceries!"

Qin Zheng slapped his forehead and said, "I forgot. Go call Mr. Ji..."

"Report!"

At this moment, a special agent came to report: "The imperial capital is under lockdown, and all the imperial guards are dispatched..."

Everyone was shocked!

Qin Zheng said solemnly: "Exterminate all nine clans!"

Su Xiaoman shuddered: "Qu Zhengzhuo?"

Lu Dong waved his hand, signaling the special agents to leave.

No one spoke in the house.

All of them had serious expressions.

If one person makes a mistake, his entire family will be exterminated. How cruel!

But, this is the world!

Except Hongtong County.

There is no serious crime of exterminating nine generations of a clan in Hongtong County.

"Report!" Suddenly, another special agent came running over: "Your Excellency, the Imperial Guards are killing all nine clans of Qu Zhengzhuo..."

Although they had already guessed it, Wu Xiaoyou and Su Xiaoman still couldn't help but shudder when it was confirmed.

Although Tao Yong and Lu Dong are men, they also feel a chill on their backs at this moment!

Qin Zheng was indifferent. This was the rule of this world and he couldn't change it.

What's more, under such strict rules, if there are still people who are not afraid of death, then they deserve to die.

Anyone who encounters such a situation can only accept that they are unlucky.

Because the rules are made by those in higher positions, and you can only follow them!

"Sir, the palace has sent a message, asking you to attend the court early tomorrow..." A special agent came running to report...

At this time, in Xia Bitu's study, Uncle Nan was also reporting this matter.

Xia Bitu was as calm as Qin Zheng.

But, he felt a little scared in his heart.

Just one step away and he would have ended up like Qu Zhengzhuo.

He should thank Qin Zheng.

But, despite his gratitude, the battle between him and Qin Zheng will not stop.

If Qin Zheng helps him, he will also help Qin Zheng.

No one owes anyone a favor!

This is the realm of a master!

Be clear-headed!

"Qin Zheng will go to Liangjin sooner or later. Inform our people and don't make things difficult for him. Help him if you can!" Xia Bitu said suddenly.

"Yes!" Uncle Nan nodded.

Xia Bitu looked at Uncle Nan and asked, "Are you starting to like this little monkey too?"

Uncle Nan smiled and said, "Yes, but I know my limits!"

He continued, "Jade Butterfly reported back that she has gained Cheng Kun's trust. Also, Fifth Master's people have been in frequent contact with Cheng Kun recently."

Xia Bitu sneered, "The Fifth Master wants to incite more than just Cheng Kun to rebel. Over the years, he has been in contact with other Realm Kings. The four Realm Kings will not join his camp unless they have enough bargaining chips. Their ambitions are unsatisfactory!"

Uncle Nan was a little confused: "Then why did the Fourth Realm King listen to Fifth Master last time and return to the Imperial Capital without permission to launch a mutiny?"

Xia Bitu smiled. "Taking money and helping others eliminate disasters, even if the bargaining chips are not enough, after all, we have received a lot of benefits, so we have to show it, right? Besides, if the border troops want to make the empress wary, they have to stir up some trouble, make some noise, right? But, Qin Zheng disrupted the situation, and they are so embarrassed!"

Uncle Nan sighed, "If Qin Zheng is used well, he can hold up the sky. If he is used poorly, he can destroy the earth!"

Xia Bitu sighed deeply: "Uncle Nan, to be honest, if Qin Zheng wants to ascend the throne, I can let go of my hatred!"

Uncle Nan was shocked!

At this time, in the imperial study of the palace.

Xia Mo Ning looked at her sister who was reading, wanting to say something but stopping herself.

She couldn't bear to exterminate the entire nine clans.

However, she didn't dare to persuade her sister.

At this moment, Xia Mochu is looking into the governance measures for Hongtong County.

However, her expression could not hide her anger.

This coup made her very angry.

He was angry at Qu Zhengzhuo's audacity and also angry at his own carelessness.

She actually didn't pay attention to Qin Zheng's reminder, otherwise, the situation would not be like this now.

Countless palace guards, imperial guards, and royal guards who were loyal to her were killed or wounded.

These are all her trump cards!

She was grateful to Qin Zheng, but also had some complaints.

She didn't know why Xia Bitu dropped out midway.

But what a great opportunity this is.

Since Qin Zheng had already captured Xia Bitu, he could have killed him, and it would have been perfectly legitimate.

Even though Xia Bitu was controlled by someone and had no choice but to do so, he did have the intention of rebellion.

Even if Shabitu has a trump card, even if there is someone who can control Shabitu.

With the strength of Qin Zheng's Black Cavalry, special forces, and thunder cannons, as well as her trump card, they can definitely be suppressed.

Xia Mochu had never seen the combat effectiveness of the Black Cavalry with her own eyes, but she had seen the power of the Sky Thunder Cannon!

With that kind of power, even if the Four Realms Army came, they would be blown to the ground.

Besides, after all these years of preparation, how could she not be prepared to prevent the Four Borders Army from rebelling?

However, Qin Zheng was actually saving Xia Bitu.

Xia Mochu was very angry.

Don’t you know who you belong to?

I am your woman, can't you tell the inside from the outside?

I can sleep with you, can Xia Bitu?

Snapped!

Suddenly, Xia Mochu threw the Hongtong County governance measures far away.

Xia Mo Ning was shocked. This was her sister's favorite book, and she said it was a national treasure.

Why did you throw it away?
