The Female Assistant of Wei Yuyan Shuangfei

Outside the temporary station of the Fuwei Escort Agency, a group of yamen runners led by Liu Qing were instantly intercepted by the escorts. Looking at the muscular escorts on the periphery, several of them swallowed their saliva subconsciously.

Forty or fifty people surrounded the few yamen runners in an instant, waiting for the order from the chief escort Song Zhen, and the people in front of them would be lambs to be slaughtered.

"How dare you openly confront the yamen runners? Do you want to rebel?" a yamen runner asked indignantly.

Song Zhen's expression froze when he heard that, and he glanced at the crossbowman beside him. Then he heard the sound of several arrows breaking through the air, and a group of yamen runners began wailing.

There was a feather arrow stuck on each person's thigh. Along with the shaking of the tail of the feather arrow, wailing sounds came one after another, making Liu Qing feel his scalp tingling.

From this alone, Liu Qing could be sure that the bodyguard in front of him was no simple character. He was decisive and enforced discipline, just like a military officer.

Even though Liu Qing thought so, he was still shocked in his heart and said, "Sir! Aren't you afraid that you will be punished in the court one day for what you did today?"

"condemn?"

Song Zhen sneered, pushed aside several escorts who were blocking him, and walked forward slowly, saying: "The owner of the Lian family business has been selected through various levels. If you say she is a bandit, I think you are more like a bandit."

"Lian Family Business...Lian Family, are you from Lotus Tower?" Liu Qing said with horror on his face.

Song Zhen no longer paid attention to Liu Qing and his group, but looked at Lian Xi and said, "Miss! I understand the rules of Lotus Tower. I won't ask you the reason, but they are government officials after all. How do you want to deal with it?"

"Brother Song, don't worry. Tie them up and send them to Laigu County. The new county magistrate, Lord Xie, will treat them well." Lian Xi said with an evil smile.

Song Zhen couldn't help but frown when he heard that. He pondered for a moment and then waved his hand, tied up all the yamen runners tightly and stuffed them into a carriage.

Song Zhen nodded in satisfaction, then looked at Lian Xi and said, "Miss, the General Escort Agency has issued a warrant, asking us to escort the convoy to Laigu County without returning. We are protecting a young lady from an official family in Laigu County. I don't know..."

Lian Xi naturally understood what Song Zhen meant, and then said with a spring breeze smile: "Brother Song's trip should be consistent with my goal, so I will introduce you to Lord Xie."

"Okay, let's go to Laigu County together." Song Zhen said happily after hearing Lian Xi's words.

After a brief reorganization of the escort team, Song Zhen and Lian Xi, with forty or fifty escorts, escorted Liu Qing and his party towards Laigu County.

The two of them talked and laughed along the way, seemingly forgetting the danger they had just encountered. Liu Qing and his group were dejected, knowing in their hearts what was waiting for them.

As soon as they reached the fork in the road, they saw a carriage slowly driving on the official road, and a figure in white was following the carriage.

Lian Xi greeted them and shouted with joy: "Miss! Uncle Qin! We are here."

Uncle Qin immediately pulled the reins and stopped. He took one look at the escort team and understood what he meant. His original worries disappeared in an instant. Looking at the still cheerful Lian Xi, he felt a little more at ease.

"Xi girl! I'm glad you're okay, but you scared me, an old man."

"Uncle Qin! Even though my martial arts are not very good, I can definitely escape. I remember the rules of our building. Nothing else matters. The most important thing is to save your life." Lian Xi said, patting his chest.

The seemingly simple words shocked the escort team's leader Song Zhen. He understood the deep meaning in Lian Xi's words. This old man must be from the Lotus Tower.

At this moment, Song Zhen was even more curious about the identity of the person in the carriage. What virtue did he have that made Lianhualou spend so much money to protect him?

"Xier! Are you hurt?" Xie Shuting asked with concern.

Lian Xi immediately stuck out her tongue at Uncle Qin upon hearing this, and approached the carriage with a little trepidation, saying softly, "Miss! I am not injured, and I have captured Liu Qing and his gang by the way."

Xie Tingwen opened the curtain with some surprise, glanced at the open carriage at the back of the escort agency, and immediately understood everything.

"You didn't take advantage of the situation to commit a crime. I don't think you can capture them without the help of those heroes!"

"Master, please understand. The Fuwei Escort Agency has always been warm-hearted. Once I mentioned your status, they were happy to help. This is all because of your reputation." Lian Xi hurriedly explained.

Xie Tingwen chuckled, obviously not buying it. He looked at the leading escort and bowed through the window, saying, "I would like to thank you all for your help in solving this major cancer in Laigu County."

"Your Excellency praised it immediately. It's just a piece of cake." Song Zhen stroked his hand and said.

The few of them exchanged some pleasantries, and no one noticed that Li Shixian had already ridden his horse and stood in front of Liu Qing. When they heard the cry for mercy from the carriage, everyone suddenly came back to their senses.

"Mr. Li! These things have nothing to do with me. I am not one of the Ten Evils of Mangdang Mountain. Please forgive me!" Liu Qing begged for mercy hysterically.

"You are guilty of harboring the Ten Evils of Mount Mangdang. You are a government official and the government will make the final decision. Tell me, where is the remaining evil one?"

As Li Shixian spoke, his expression changed and an inexplicable murderous intent flashed in his eyes. Just as he raised his hand to attack, Xie Shuting hurriedly spoke out to stop him.

"Mr. Li! They deserved to die, but if they died in your hands now, it would be a stain on your hands. Don't worry, the laws of the Song Dynasty will bring such evildoers to justice."

Upon hearing this, Xie Tingwen also hurriedly spoke up to persuade them, "Yes, Mr. Li, if you kill them now, it would be too merciful to them. When I return to Laigu County, I will report their crimes to the Ministry of Justice and then announce to the world that they will be severely punished to mourn the lives of the 63 members of the Cao family."

Xie Tingwen's righteous words finally bought Liu Qing and his party a chance to survive for half a month. However, in the document issued by the Ministry of Justice half a month later, only the words "beheaded" were the most prominent.

In fact, Xie Shuting didn't need to stop it. She could just kill such a person, but now she had to pave the way for her father, and she had to keep such a great achievement.

Because the Ministry of Personnel assessment three years later is crucial and is the key to whether Xie Tingwen can go to Bian Jing, she has to get to know Yan Shuang before Crown Prince Zhao Pu.

The mighty team once again advanced towards Gu County. When they arrived at the place where the previous battle took place, looking at the corpses all over the ground, Song Zhen, with lingering fear, arranged for some people to stay behind to deal with it.

"Oh! This is such a sin!" Song Zhen sighed helplessly.

Xie Tingwen shook his head helplessly for a long time without saying anything. Looking at the busy people outside the window, a tear fell inadvertently from the corner of his eye.

Xie Shuting, who was standing by, also had mixed feelings. The death of fifty or sixty strong laborers was a huge loss for a small county town.
