Was it revenge or love? Suicide or revenge? How did he die? How did he die? How many people died? Has the murderer been caught?
These questions were a great topic of conversation in the boring ancient times. Once they were mentioned, people would talk about them for days without getting bored.
Tiancheng was annoyed by the lively discussions around him. Seeing that his goal had been achieved, he did not stay any longer. After paying, he got up and left, leaving a landmine for Laoya.
Then she took advantage of the time to spread the news in several other places, but she did not participate in the process at the beginning to avoid being discovered.
When the sun was high in the sky, Tiancheng went to the government office.
The government office in the town is very simple. There is a drum, but it is very small. When it is hit, it doesn't make much noise. It is just a symbolic meaning.
The mallet, too, was like a treasure passed down from generation to generation. It had been polished to a pulp a long time ago, and its surface was extremely smooth, but it didn't look very clean.
Tiancheng had no intention of using it at all. He walked to the door and said to the yamen runner, "I have something important to report. Please let your Excellency know."
The yamen runner looked at her and didn't think she looked like a desperate vendor who was desperate to lose his chickens and ducks, so he asked:
"What's the matter?"
"The case involves a lot of people, and it may even affect your career... It's inconvenient to convey it outside. I'd like you to go there and let your Excellency decide the details."
The bailiff was suspicious, but he didn't dare to make a decision on his own. He just shouted "wait" and went to ask for instructions.
Tian Cheng lowered his eyes and waited quietly. Soon, the yamen runner summoned her into the hall.
She walked through the gate and took a few steps to the courtroom. There were a few yamen runners standing there with sticks in their hands, looking crooked and unprofessional.
Tiancheng had a clue in his mind, so he didn't pay much attention to him, but he didn't show any fear either. He just looked up at the middle-aged man sitting in the hall.
To be honest, the so-called "adults" are not worthy of being called "parents". After all, given the size of the town, it would be more appropriate to call them the mayor.
It's just that the place is different, and I can't apply Donghuang common sense to it. It's indeed a court arrangement, so it's always right to call you adults.
She looked at him carefully and saluted briefly with her fists clasped, "Sir."
The official raised his eyelids and asked, "Why don't you kneel?"
"This matter concerns you, sir. The news came quickly and it is not convenient to tell others. Can you please dismiss the yamen runners?"
"Sir, there are priorities. If you dwell on this, it will be too late to make amends."
The official hesitated for a moment, and seeing that she didn't look like she was carrying a weapon, he waved his hand and asked the runners to wait outside the door, then frowned and threatened:
"You'd better tell me something urgent."
"Sir, yesterday an official from the capital came to the town to look for you. Did you know about this?"
"Never heard of it."
"My Lord, do you understand what I mean?"
The official was about to scold, but suddenly he seemed to remember something and his face turned pale, and his gaze towards Tiancheng gradually wavered.
The capital city had become a paradise for strange people, and the whole world knew about it. He also knew that the strange people had begun to go out and cause trouble, but he never thought that his remote town would also suffer.
He broke out in a cold sweat when he thought about cleaning up those guys' messes. If he didn't, he would be the one to suffer.
The official was very worried. "Are you here to ask for compensation? Tell me how much you want. If the situation is true,
"I am not here to ask for a reward. I am just following the master's orders and come to discuss cooperation with you."
