Xiao Ting quietly came to the side window, where a lamp was lit, and a figure could still be seen shaking.
There are still many people, and their emotions are not stable.
Xiao Ting hid there next to her body, wanted to hear what they were talking about
They seemed to be discussing something important, their voices were very low.
"My lord, are you just letting Madam act like this? The identities of those two people must be extraordinary."
"Yes, my lord, we have worked so hard to get to this point, we can't just offend any high-ranking official."
The voices of these two people were low, obviously trying to persuade the magistrate.
However, the magistrate is no longer as dead as he was in the daytime, and seems to be more irritable than them, "Do you think I am willing? But that woman knows sorcery, do you know how the previous magistrate died?"
"Could it be?" Now several people dare not speak.
"Okay, I'll deal with him on this matter first, and make plans after the identities of the two are found out."
"Should we send someone to guard Sun Zhen?" They have been following the woman's words and paying attention to the affairs there, otherwise they would not have heard any movement, so they would have arrived so quickly.
"Still guarding the fart, everything has been taken away, what are you still guarding there?"
"But my lord, it's not a problem for those people to surround the government office. We must have a pretext to arrest them."
"Is there an official here to teach you?"
The magistrate became angry when he heard it, and yelled at these people with a suppressed voice.
Seeing several people bow their heads, he felt a deep sense of powerlessness, "Where's Madam?"
"She sent those three people to the big prison, and she has gone back to rest now. I sent someone to watch, don't worry."
"What's this called, really."
"My lord, I heard that there is an expert in Yunchong Temple who is very capable. Why don't you invite him to have a look." Someone suggested an idea, which was directly rejected by the magistrate.
"You thought I hadn't invited you, and had already sent people to investigate, but those people have no real skills at all, they are all charlatans." The magistrate rubbed his head with an angry expression on his face.
"Okay, okay, you guys go down first, I hope this matter will come to an end soon, and it will be over when she leaves."
Everyone is very helpless, the majestic government office is controlled by a woman of unknown origin, really, really...
As soon as the magistrate lay down here, he heard movement outside the window.
"Who, who is outside?"
The magistrate just lay down here, and his mind was still not settled, when he heard movement outside, which seemed to be the sound of someone stepping on a dead branch.
So he muttered unkindly, then put on only his jacket, opened the window and leaned on the window to look out.
But his gaze hadn't settled down yet, and he was hit on the nose with a small fist just as he opened the window, and he let out a soft cry.
"Don't make a sound, if you shout again, you will be beaten into a pig's head."
The one who jumped into the window like a little bandit was naturally Miss Xiao Liu.
She reached out and pinched the prefect's collar, and lifted him to the table.
"You, who are you?"
In fact, the magistrate already recognized Xiao Ting, but he couldn't believe it, this woman should be locked in a prison now, how could she appear here
Xiao Ting let him go.
"Can't you recognize who I am? Do you want me to remind you?" Xiao Ting pretended to be vicious and threatened him.
"You, escaped from the prison privately, I think you don't want to die." The prefect didn't know what to say anymore.
"Call someone if you have the ability, let's see if your life is harder, or this girl is luckier?"
Hehe, how did he hear some threats from this crisp voice
He has seen this girl's skills before, but no matter how he gestures, he still feels that his head will be separated before those wine bags and rice bags come to rescue him.
Seeing that the prefect stopped, Xiao Ting didn't scare him, "Hey, don't be afraid, I won't kill people casually, don't worry."
She told him to rest assured, how could he rest assured
"Then why did you break into my official residence at night?" Although the magistrate is not very courageous, he still knows people, so it is natural to see that Xiao Ting is not joking.
Xiao Ting despised him, then saw the beautiful fruit and snacks on the table, took them and stuffed two pieces into her mouth, squeaked twice, frowned slightly, "Well, it really can't compare with the ones in the imperial city." But she still swallowed them.
"Originally, I wanted to ask you to borrow some money to spend, but I happened to overhear your conversation just now, so tell me, what's going on with your wife?"
Xiao Ting patted the pastry crumbs on her hand, then reached for another piece.
"You, what did you hear?"
Xiao Ting rolled her eyes at him, "I'll hear whatever you say, can I still be selectively deaf?"
This man is an idiot for asking such a thing.
Seeing Xiao Ting's expression of you being an idiot, I was so convinced that I wished I could slap her to death.
But he didn't have that kind of skill, so the outstretched hand was only raised and then slowly lowered, trembling.
Xiao Ting raised her head and glanced at him with a half-smile, and said, "Tell me quickly, while the girl is in a good mood now."
The prefect's body trembled slightly.
Xiao Ting really couldn't bear to see it anymore, just such a brave man, what kind of magistrate, so she stepped forward, picked up this magistrate who was euphemistically called diligent in government and caring for the people, and threw it on the grand teacher's chair.
And she herself moved a chair over and sat opposite him.
She also felt that the chair was a bit hard and made her uncomfortable, so she crossed her feet and kicked on the table next to the prefect, acting like a hooligan.
"You, you are in a bad mood, what do you think, do you still want to kill this official?" In the face of the magistrate, not only people were paralyzed there, but their legs were shaking involuntarily.
"Do you have persecution paranoia? This girl doesn't like killing people. This girl has never killed anyone."
Xiao Ting explained to the magistrate seriously with her self-righteous eyes, but the magistrate didn't believe her at all.
Seeing Xiao Ting taking out a knife and peeling apples there, YouQi was even more sure that this was threatening him.
"You, you, you can ask what you want to ask."
"Ah, what did I ask just now?" She slapped her head, remembering to eat it just now, but forgot.
"Forget it, I don't know what to ask, so just tell me what you know."
I really didn't expect the magistrate to tell the truth so easily. Unfortunately, she thought the magistrate was a senior official, and it would be difficult to deal with it.
After all, she can't show her identity at the moment. Chu Li said that many people are chasing and killing them. If those people know about it, they will either be locked in prison or wiped out directly. My life is important.
The magistrate was very straightforward, and told Xiao Ting all the ins and outs of the incident.
This time, it was even smoother than speaking just now.
After the flood last year, the prefect at that time was forced by the governor to stay here and continue to preside over follow-up matters because of the severity of the disaster. Although he was guilty, he did not die.
This woman appeared as a concubine, but unfortunately the previous magistrate was a pedant, how could he agree
He asked the woman, but she didn't say anything, and he sent someone to put the woman into prison in a fit of anger.
That night, almost all the people in the government office died, including the prefect and his family members.
The governor above was also alarmed and came down to investigate the matter, but only found out that it was caused by a fire.
Due to the urgency of the matter, the higher-ups appointed an adult to handle the matter here, which is the current prefect Liang.
After Liang Zhifu took office, it was also a mess, and things were extremely chaotic. He had a lot of things to do, so he didn't even bring his family members with him.
If you don't have it, don't take it, there is a ready-made one delivered to your door, and you must be his wife.
He also said that he was originally from the government office and knew some inside information.
Liang Zhifu saw that she looked like a sign, so he agreed. After all, he doesn't know anything now, and it would be easier for him to do things if someone who knows helps.
Unexpectedly, in just two or three days, his new wife showed her true colors.
Of course it's not a big deal, but let him follow her instructions, and tell him that this disaster is not a natural disaster, but a man-made disaster, if he doesn't obey her, he will be the next person to die in vain.
Naturally, such a blatant threat would not scare Liang Zhifu, and he was ready to call people in immediately.
But the next moment, he was so frightened that he fell to the ground, as if he had seen a ghost.
The woman's eyes would emit a strange light, and if she looked at her, she would instantly lose all her abilities, and he couldn't even move at that time.
He didn't fall until the woman looked away.
"And she knows martial arts, her martial arts are extremely high, and she is very weird."
Liang Zhifu finished these things word by word, and he secretly added: "Is she not an ordinary person?"
Xiao Ting looked at him with a half-smile, "Oh? Where did you see that?"
"She was looking for something, and said that there was an enchantment in that forest. There was what she wanted in that enchantment, and people in that town would not dare to go there.
Because people will die if you go in, only you go in, and I know that the so-called barrier must be broken, otherwise she won't bring you back. "
In the end, Liang Zhifu could see that Xiao Ting would not kill him, and she was not an ordinary person.
"Oh, so there is still some ability. I thought that the emperor raised a bunch of waste."
"Now that I've told you everything, are you going to deal with her?"
Liang Zhifu was actually betting that Xiao Ting could deal with that woman.
Otherwise, once the higher-ups blame him, they will take him to the knife. After all, this kind of thing can be hidden for a while, but it cannot be hidden for a lifetime.
If he took the initiative to expose it, it would be another matter, and maybe he would be credited.
Xiao Ting withdrew her foot.
Knowing the truth of the matter, she planned to go back and straightened her dress.
She turned her head and smiled brightly, "I can't beat her."
Although she doesn't know much about martial arts in this world, she has been with Yuchi, Li Mo and Ninth Prince, these peerless masters for a long time, and she can already judge the power of a person based on a person's breath and walking posture.
This woman's martial arts is obvious, much higher than hers, she is not stupid to run to die.
"Then why are you asking these questions?" The magistrate was stunned for a moment, then his face changed drastically, and he asked her angrily.
