A group of people had their own ulterior motives. Dongfang Ming and his two left the inn and went to Fengxian Government Office surrounded by a group of yamen runners.

The group came to the government hall lobby and waited for Zhao Shen to sit down after the case. He slapped the gavel, indicating that the case was officially promoted to the hall to try. Zaoli, who stood on both sides of the lobby, suddenly paused hard on the ground with the water and fire sticks in his hand, shouting "Magnificent".

With the momentum, everyone's face suddenly turned serious. Even Dongfang Ming was shocked a little and sighed in his heart: It turned out that the yamen that I often saw in novels before was like this, and it was indeed very majestic. Even a dog official like Zhao Shen showed a bit of righteousness on his face.

"Who is in the hall? Tell me your grievance quickly!" The chief clerk, who was standing beside the county magistrate, took a few steps forward and followed the process in a straightforward manner.

"The villain went out today and saw this beautiful girl on the way. He felt admiration. He was about to come forward and say a few words to this girl. Who knew that this man came up without saying anything, beat the villain, and beat the villain to the point of his nose and eyes. The adults have to make the decision for the villain!" Although he didn't understand why the county magistrate, who had always been "like-minded", did not arrest the man and beat him immediately. But the villain also followed the trend.

Unexpectedly, this ignorant disciple looked like a decent act. The reversed black and white combined with his two panda eyes that were beaten by Dongfang Ming was really convincing.

The unclear chief clerk thought that the county magistrate was still in the same mood as Deng Tuzi this time, so he wanted to scold Dongfang Ming and the others. Unexpectedly, their county magistrate raised his hand to stop him and asked him to retreat. Then he signaled Dongfang Ming to explain the matter.

"As soon as the villain and her sister arrived here, they heard that the customs and cultures are beautiful, they wanted to go out to the inn to go for a walk. But when they went out, they met this disciple who coveted her sister's beauty. They spoke dirty words and wanted to touch her sister in a mess." As they said that, Dongfang Ming showed sadness and even choked in his mouth. "The villain was angry for a moment and then took action. I hope the adults understand the truth and give the villain and her sister innocence!"

Dengtuzi stood proudly, looking at Dongfang with disdain and making statements of the facts with great affection, thinking that he could take the beauty for himself when the county magistrate ordered the order to beat the untouchables.

He heard the county magistrate slapped the aggro and said angrily: "Come here! Take this disciple and beat him up to thirty boards!"

In an instant, Zaoli on both sides of the lobby quickly stepped forward and copied Dengtuzi's arms behind him. The dude who was stunned for pain screamed. He came to his senses and shouted to Zhao Shen in the hall: "Sir! Did you catch the wrong person? It was him, it was this untouchable who beat the villain!"

Zhao Shen waved his hand impatiently and signaled Zaoli to block his mouth. He said, "You bully men and women on weekdays, and it has already caused public grievances. I am looking at your father's face, and you are still young, so I have only opened my mind. Who knows that you don't repent and violate the ban repeatedly. This time I will punish you heavily without being favored."

As soon as he finished speaking, Dengtuzi was dragged out of the hall. He was pressed roughly on the stool in the yard outside the house. The yamen runner who was holding Xing waved his water and fire sticks high and hit Dengtuzi heavily, immediately let out a howl of pain like a pig slaughtering.

On this side, Dongfang Ming and Cui Ning both felt a little ridiculous in their hearts. This is the rule of chaos in the chaotic times. The people above are confused and the people below are also willing to commit crimes. How can they be called local parents?

Zhao Shen waved at Dongfang Ming with a happy look and signaled that they would follow him to a small house behind the hall. When they sat down, they said to Dongfang Ming with a gentle voice: "Just just now, the little brother said that he came from another place. I don't know where the little brother and Ling Mei came from, and what's the price to do when they arrived in Fengxian?" He was thinking about how to speak, so that Cui Ning could agree to run for the election of the concubine.

Dongfang Ming, the "brother", is here, so Zhao Shen is not able to go beyond him and talk directly to Cui Ning, so he can only deal with Dongfang Ming first.

"The villain and Shemei came from Pi County. The original intention was to take Shemei out for fun and relax. I heard that Feng County has outstanding people and simple people, so I came here to take a look." Zhao Shen was not anxious, and Dongfang Ming was not anxious. He accompanied Zhao Shen to play Tai Chi, and waited for him to express his purpose. When he was in the inn, he did not miss the greed in Zhao Shen's eyes when he looked at Cui Ning.

Sure enough, Zhao Shen couldn't help but speak carefully: "This county is currently selecting a concubine for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, and all women of the right age are going to run for the election. I see that my sister is beautiful and will definitely be favored by the emperor. I wonder if my little brother is interested..." The implication is already very obvious.

Dongfang Ming was a little surprised now. He was a little surprised earlier: If Zhao Shen wanted to occupy Cui Ning, why should he be so polite to them? It turned out that this was the idea. However, as long as the purpose of getting close to Zhao Shen, it would not matter what form it was. Anyway, they would have to go back to the copycat after the matter was over.

Moreover, Dongfang Ming looked at the ruthless look in Zhao Shen's eyes, and knew that if he dared to say "no", a yamen runner would immediately come in and arrest them. Although he didn't think these people could pose a threat to them, there was no need to cause such a big disturbance, right? Their goal had not been achieved yet.

"Since the adult has said it, the villain may as well speak out directly to the adult. The villain brought the sister to Fengxian, and heard that this place was choosing a concubine for the prince. The villain intended to offer the sister in his heart, hoping to make good friends with the adults and gain a great future."

It is better to speak out about his interests than someone like Zhao Shen who is good at suspicion, and instead gain his trust. However, he cannot just show weakness, making him think that Dongfang Ming and Cui Ning are easy to control. So Dongfang Ming was about to show some strength to suppress Zhao Shen's evil heart.

"Actually, when I was in the inn, if the adults insisted on using martial arts, the villain would be confident that he could protect the sisters. If he hurts the adults, we may not be able to sit down and have a good chat with him at this moment." As he said that, he patted the table beside him in an understatement. After a moment, the sandalwood table cracked into pieces of broken wood.

Zhao Shen felt a few drops of cold sweat on his back, and he couldn't help but feel glad that he didn't choose to use force just now, but used the Huairou strategy to test Dongfang Ming first. Now, the idea of ​​being forced is definitely not enough. The most urgent task is to stabilize Dongfang Ming and establish a good relationship with them.

He quickly flattered Dongfang Ming: "Little brother said this, how could I use such means to force the people? Since the little brother also has this intention, it is better to accompany my sister to stay in my house first. When the teammate who chose to send his concubine sets off, the little brother will send her to leave, and it will not be too late to leave."

"Then I'll trouble Lord Zhao." Dongfang Ming nodded in agreement.

Zhao Shen quickly ordered people to take the two to Zhao's mansion to settle down and arrange for the servants to serve the two of them with good wine and meat.
