Chapter 296 The Death of the Prefect Hou

Li Muwan smiled sweetly at Ye Feng, leaning on Ye Feng's shoulder with a look of happiness.

"Wherever you go, Mu Wan will go."

Turning around, Ye Feng raised his hand to smooth a few strands of hair from Li Muwan's temples, and nodded with a smile in his black eyes.

Outside the door, Chu Yao and Bi Tong leaned their ears to the palace door and listened.When the door of the palace creaked and opened from the inside, the faces of the second daughter blushed, and they retreated to the sides in embarrassment and panic.

"You two dead girls, how dare you eavesdrop outside? Believe it or not, I'll cut off your ears?"

Chu Yao and Bi Tong's eavesdropping behavior made Li Muwan blush, and she scolded the two girls with a straight face and pretended to be angry.

Chu Yao and Bi Tong were neither angry nor afraid, bowed their heads to Ye Feng and Li Muwan with a smirk on their faces, and said in unison, "Congratulations to the suzerain and the deputy suzerain for their lovers finally getting married."

Hearing this, not only Li Muwan blushed hot, but even Ye Feng became a little embarrassed and embarrassed.

"You two...cough! Do you still hate me?" Ye Feng changed the subject to avoid any more embarrassment and laughed.

Chu Yao and Bi Tong hurriedly knelt down on one knee, cupped their fists and bowed to Ye Feng: "This subordinate is guilty, please punish the suzerain."

Ye Feng raised his eyebrows and coughed again: "The punishment is waived. I have been away from the sect for four days. You two will immediately leave for the Ancient Ye Sect to tell Li Tianya the news about the deputy sect master Ankang. Together with Ding Lan'er and others, we will save them from worrying. In addition, the two of us plan to go to Wangu Town, and I also asked Li Tianya and the others not to think about it. We will go back in a few days."

"Yes!"

The two clasped their fists together to receive the order, stood up and glanced at Ye Feng and Li Muwan, with smirks on their faces again, before Li Muwan could say anything, the two girls turned around and ran away laughing.

Looking up at the sky, Ye Feng withdrew his eyes and smiled slightly at Li Muwan, "Muwan, let's start too, we can reach Wangu Town before dark."

Gently nodding her head, Li Muwan held Ye Feng's arm, with a happy and sweet smile on her face, and walked slowly towards the gatehouse of Baihua Valley with Ye Feng.

Be it love or friendship.Without experiencing life and death, it is difficult to see true love after all.

This love was hard-won, and Li Muwan suffered a lot for it, and almost lost her life.Ye Feng didn't expect that this love would come so suddenly, and he would get a woman who was willing to give her life for him.

Just as Ding Lan'er secretly said in the second peak square, Ye Feng is both unfortunate and happy.

The so-called misfortune is that he has experienced too many ups and downs and misery at this age, whether it is Ye Longtian's death, or the divorce, the tragic death of the whole family of servants overnight, and even accidentally killing Zhang Jie with his own hands, all kinds of things have brought Ye Feng too much. pain.

Ye Feng is also happy. When he was in a coma, a woman would sacrifice her life to save him from waking up and being healthy.

Ye Feng didn't miss this hard-won love, and he couldn't find any reason to refuse it, nor would he mercilessly hurt a woman who loved him and was willing to die.

Since there is no reason, there is no need for any reason to love frankly.

Loving someone is so simple.She was sad when she cried, and happy when he laughed.Give her a home to shelter from wind and rain, and a shoulder to lean on when she gets tired.

The sun was setting to the west, and the two horses galloped forward and backward on the official road, and they were heading in the direction of Wangu Town.

Wangu Town is the place where Ye Feng was born.There is a street in the town, which is called "a street of beggars" by the people of Wangu Town.

After a few months, there is no more beggar in South Street.That place has now become a place where Sanxia sets up stalls and sells things.

On the West Street of Wangu Town, there is an open space with no buildings.There are ten knights guarding here day and night, and no strangers are allowed to approach.Over time, it also became a forbidden area in Wangu Town.

There haven't been many changes on East Street and North Street. One is the courtyard of the mansions of wealthy wealthy people, and the other is where refreshments and taverns are run.

Generally speaking, apart from West Street and South Street, there is not much change in Ancient Yezong.But seven days ago, a major event happened in Wangu Town.

This incident caused a sensation in the entire Wangu Town. It can be said that everyone from the centenary old man to the urchin playing in the mud knew about this incident, and the prefect Hou of Wangu Town was beheaded.

The one who killed the magistrate was not from the Jianghu, nor the disciples of the ancient Yezong and Hengyue sect, but the... Son of Heaven of Qingshui Kingdom.

It is said that when the emperor did not issue an imperial edict, the prefect Hou got the news.At that time, the prefect took out the gold and silver collected through decades of embezzlement, just to survive in exchange for the peace of the clan.

However, no one in the imperial court dared to accept gifts and help each other, and they even closed their doors to see each other, as if they were afraid of getting into trouble.

Until the death of Hou Zhifu, he didn't know who was reading his book behind his back, and he didn't know why the emperor of the dynasty knew about his search for people's fat and people's anointing.Even the magistrate Hou didn't know why several powerful officials in the court closed their doors and coaxed him away.

However, after all the nine clansmen of Hou Zhifu were beheaded, news still leaked out.

Rumor has it that the person who will wait for the prefect to steal money from the people is the prefect of Huaxiong Town.

Even though it was determined that it was the prefect of Huaxiong Town, many people still don't understand one thing.It's just that Hou Zhifu is just a county magistrate, and he puts out all his belongings to take care of it. Some ministers in the court may not dare to accept gifts.

This question has always troubled many people, but I don't know who it came from, talking about Houzhifu and Ye Feng's unhappiness.This time, everyone pointed their finger at Ye Feng.

You know, after Ye Feng wiped out the bandits on Xiong'er Mountain, he gave all the 10 taels of silver that the bandits took away to the poor people.Later, when Ye Feng opened the main hall, he took out tens of millions of taels of silver from his own property, and rescued tens of thousands of poor people in Qingshui Kingdom.

If you think about it carefully, these two incidents alone can cause a sensation in the imperial court, even in today's world.

Therefore, many people think that the reason why the magistrate Hou failed to save his life by dissipating his wealth is directly related to Ye Feng.

The reason is very simple. Today, only the Ancient Ye Sect and the Heng Yue Sect are left in the Qingshui Kingdom.If Ye Feng, the leader of the Ancient Leaf Sect, stomps away, the ground in Qingshui Kingdom will tremble.

This is not an exaggeration at all, although Gu Yezong only has close to [-] disciples, but this power cannot be underestimated, because most of the disciples in Gu Yezong are absolutely ordinary people who practice martial arts.This alone is enough to make the imperial court feel pressured.

Of course, Ye Feng didn't know about the beheading of Zhifu Hou.

At this moment, just after dark, a man and a woman led a horse and walked into the town along the north gate of Wangu Town.

The two of them didn't stay on the street for too long, leading their horses straight to a mansion on East Street.
