"Ding! Please don't rely too much on foreign objects, and this system can only help the host under certain invasion conditions."

Xu Huai was not depressed when he heard the system's answer.

"It's okay, I didn't really plan to ask you to come, otherwise I would lose a lot of fun pretending to be sexy."

After speaking, Xu Huai walked to Tuoba Cheng's side.

After confirming that he was really dead, he turned over the body again.

I actually found a storage ring, but I couldn't open it after trying several times.

I had to put it away temporarily and study it later.

Just when Xu Huai was about to get up, several voices came from behind.

"Don't move! We are the county guards of Ningwu County. Some people say that people are killing people here. Now we want to take you to see the county captain."

Xu Huai saw that each of the guards in front of him had the strength of a second-grade warrior.

They had no choice but to give up resistance and let them escort them to the Yamen.

As soon as he entered the Yamen, Xu Huai was thrown to the ground by the guards.

"Please be gentle, I didn't kill anyone, you are just suspicious of me now!"

Xu Huai, who was lying on the ground, quickly defended himself.

But the guards ignored him and all looked at the person above the hall.

I saw a middle-aged man wearing official uniform and a majestic face sitting there.

After hearing Xu Huai's words, the majestic man spoke.

"I am the county lieutenant [Ning Heng] of Ningwu County. I received a report that you committed murder, so I arrested you. As for whether you committed murder, we need to wait until the corpse is examined before we can make a judgment."

After hearing Ning Heng's words, Xu Huai quickly got up.

"Yes, sir, there is no evidence to judge that I am the murderer, so you shouldn't tie me up like this. It's very uncomfortable. Come on, come on, help me loosen my ties."

As he spoke, Xu Huai stretched out his hand, wanting the guards on the side to help him unlock his shackles.

But no one paid him any attention. Even Ning Heng looked up at the sky at a 45-degree angle with an expression that had nothing to do with him.

"Holy shit? What's going on?" Xu Huai looked at the plaque above his head and fell into deep thought.

Fortunately, Wu Zuo also came to the court soon.

"Master Ning, the autopsy results have come out. The deceased was not killed intentionally by this person."

Seeing that Wu had proved himself, Xu Huai quickly became energetic.

"Look! I said it's not me. Come on, come on, let me loose."

Upon seeing this, a guard put away his weapon and prepared to loosen Xu Huai's shackles.

"But..." At this time, Wu Zuo spoke again, "The deceased wanted to seize this person's body, but for some unknown reason, this person broke the method of seizing the body, which caused the backlash of the deceased."

Hearing this, Ning Heng nodded, "I see, although there was no intentional homicide, there was manslaughter. Therefore, the death penalty can be avoided, but you cannot escape the crime of living. Come here, drag me down and beat him with fifty boards!"

The guard who was about to release his shackles raised his weapon again.

Hearing Ning Heng's words, Xu Huai suddenly jumped up from the ground.

"No, Lieutenant Ning County, what do you mean by this? I already said that the beggar wanted to take away my body and mutilate my life. As a result, I died in an accident. I can blame this on me???"

Seeing Xu Huai's actions, the alert guards suddenly surrounded him.

Ning Heng, who was originally sitting, also stood up.

"What do you mean? Does my sentence mean anything? I have the final say here in Ningwu County. As long as you kill someone, you will be punished, unless the person who dies is a very guilty person!"

"That..." Zuo on the side interrupted Ning Heng with some hesitation, "Master Ning, the deceased is the serial murderer [Fan Debiao] you ordered to arrest half a year ago. He is indeed a very sinful person."

Now Ning Heng, who had a majestic look on his face, also had a look of embarrassment on his face.

Xu Huai on the other side burst into laughter, "Lieutenant Ning County, did you hear that? This is the most criminal person you ordered to be wanted. You won't deny it in front of so many people, right?"

"Hmph!" Ning Heng flicked his sleeves and said to the guard, "Let him go!"

"Yes." The guard put away his weapon again.

He came to Xu Huai and untied the shackles in his hands one by one.

"Finally let me go. You told me not to lock it, don't lock it, right?" Xu Huai complained while moving his hands and feet.

Hearing Xu Huai's complaint, Ning Heng didn't bother to pay attention and turned around to leave.

"Hey, hey, Captain Ning, don't leave in a hurry!" Xu Huai quickly spoke and stopped Ning Heng.

Ning Heng turned around and looked at Xu Huai.

"I have released you, what else do you want?"

Xu Huai smiled "hehe" and said, "Since the beggar who died was the one wanted by Ning County Lieutenant, there must be a reward, right?"

As soon as he finished speaking, a guard on the side suddenly said, "Yes, Fan Debiao's bounty was raised to 300 bronze coins just two days ago."

"Oh?" Xu Huai became interested after hearing this, "I wonder if what this brother said is true?"

Xu Huai looked at Ning Heng with a smile on his face.

"no!"

Ning Heng simply rejected Xu Huai.

After saying this, Ning Heng was ready to leave the court.

Seeing this, Xu Huai didn't panic at all and said calmly, "That's it. It's a pity. I'm about to go to the imperial city. I should meet other county captains or officials on the way. I'll ask them if they have this matter. "

Ning Heng turned back to look at Xu Huai, "I advise you not to get carried away. You are still on the territory of Ningwu County."

When Xu Huai heard Ning Heng's threat, he just waved his hand lightly.

He casually took out a token from his arms and threw it in front of Ning Heng.

Ning Heng glanced disdainfully, but quickly changed his attitude.

A flattering look appeared on his face, and he dismissed everyone at the same time.

"You all stand down, I have something to talk to this young master for a while."

After only Ning Heng and Xu Huai were left in the courtroom.

Ning Heng quickly picked up the token, wiped it carefully and came to Xu Huai.

"Ouch, Prince Xu, why are you doing this? Isn't this trying to scare the villain? You should put it away quickly and take it out earlier. We won't have this problem."

Xu Huai glanced sideways at Ning Heng and reached out to take the token.

This token is the identity token that Xu Huai secretly hid on his body when he left Xu Mansion.

Anyone who is an official in the imperial court knows this token.

This token is carved from precious wood.

Surrounded by solid gold edging.

In the center of the token, there is a large seal character [Xu].

Xu Huai thought to himself, "It's not like you have to give me a chance to pretend to be sexy."

After putting it away, he said casually, "Lieutenant Ning County, I wonder if there is a reward or not? Or maybe I can ask my father to ask you?"

"No, no, no, Prince Xu, you really know how to joke. There is a bounty, it must be there, and it's not 300 bronze coins, it's 600 bronze coins! Just wait a minute, I'll get it for you right now."

Ning Heng changed his previous arrogance and turned to the back hall with a smile on his face.

……

After burning a stick of incense, Xu Huai left the Ningwu County Yamen with a cloth bag containing 600 bronze coins.

A group of guards stood behind him, saluting Xu Huai.

"Prince Xu, walk slowly!"
