Wen Tian bit her lip, slightly loosened the clenched hands in her sleeves, and shook her head towards Chu Xiangtian.

But in fact, he couldn't be afraid. It was like this in his previous life. At that time, the entire Wen family was controlled by Wen Boli, and those who refused to accept his servants sold them out, sent them away, and they were isolated and helpless. There were fingerprints on the divorce letter. At that time, a group of officers and soldiers surrounded them and drove them out of the home that belonged to them without even letting them clean up a piece of clothing.

The moment the officers and soldiers surrounded them, he almost thought that history was about to repeat itself, and his fingernails dug deep into his palms, so he managed to maintain his composure and confront them, because he knew he couldn't back down.

Chu Xiangtian's appearance was like a burst of fresh air suddenly seeping through the suffocating space. Wen Tian took a deep breath, feeling his beating heart calm down a bit.Perhaps it was because his posture of kicking over two officers and soldiers was too strong and ruthless, even though he was alone, Wen Tian breathed a sigh of relief quietly.

Chu Xiangtian couldn't see the fear in his eyes. He really wanted to reach out and rub the young master's head to tell him not to be afraid, but he also worried that Fu Youqin was next to him, so he could only smile at him comfortingly, telling him not to be afraid. Worried, and then firmly stood in front of the two of them.

He is tall and tall, and he is dressed neatly in black clothes. When he squints his eyes and looks at the opposite side, he exudes a murderous aura. This is tempered by years of fighting on the battlefield. Even the bravest enemy will be terrified when he sees him. What's more, these ordinary officers and soldiers who have never experienced war.

The officers and soldiers standing at the front took a step back subconsciously, and after realizing it, they felt too imposing, even a bandit leader was afraid, and it was too embarrassing.The leading officer took a step forward, raised his head bluffing, "The government handles the case, if you don't want to die, get out of the way!"

His cold eyes fell on the opposite side, Chu Xiangtian looked at them expressionlessly, and said coldly, "Get lost."

"What courage!" Enraged by his attitude, the leading officer pointed the knife in his hand at him, "If you don't get out of the way, even you, the bandit leader, will be suppressed together!"

Chu Xiangtian's expression didn't change at all, his gaze swept across him lightly, and he stood motionless.

"How about...you should go first?" Wen Tian tugged at his sleeve from behind and whispered.

With Chu Xiangtian here, Wen Tian felt much at ease, at least they were not alone and helpless, although he didn't say it, Wen Tian just felt that Chu Xiangtian would definitely protect them.

But he can't be so selfish, no matter how powerful Chu Xiangtian is, he won't be able to get any benefit from confronting the twenty or so officers and soldiers on the opposite side, not to mention his sensitive identity, the officers and soldiers are still a little jealous of them, and may not dare to really see blood, But it's different with Chu Xiangtian, the bandit leader, he will be serious if he can't say it.

Seeing his slightly panicked expression, Chu Xiangtian couldn't help rubbing his head, and said in a low voice, "It's okay, Zhou Chuanqing is going to call someone." Zhou Chuanqing didn't follow, probably looking for Wei Yang people.

Fu Youqin frowned slightly watching Chu Xiangtian's actions, but now was not the time to think about these things, and she also agreed with Wen Tian's words, "This is Wen's family's private matter, Mr. Chu doesn't need to be in danger."

Chu Xiangtian is from the court, but Fu Youqin is not sure if he has any companions. At this time, there is no need to drag him down.

"Don't worry, ma'am, my people will be there soon." Chu Xiangtian explained something to reassure them, and asked Wen Ji to lead them back a little while he continued to stand at the front.

The officers and soldiers were already impatient with the wait. Their trip was not on official business. It was Wen Boli's promise that each person would pay 50 taels of silver for their hard work.But in the final analysis, Wen Tian's mother and son did not commit a crime. In order not to attract too much attention, it is best to fight quickly.

As soon as the leader of the officers and soldiers raised their hands, the officers and soldiers behind them pulled out their sabers from their waists, and twenty knives were pointed at them brightly.

"Say it one last time, obediently follow us, or don't blame the sword for having no eyes!"

Chu Xiangtian narrowed his eyes slightly, moved his wrist slightly, all the muscles in his body were tense, the two sides were at war, and the atmosphere was about to explode.

"stop!"

Zhou Chuanqing rushed in with a group of elite soldiers in armor, quickly blocked Chu Xiangtian's front, and confronted the officers and soldiers.

"The movement is really slow." Chu Xiangtian put down his hands and muttered dissatisfiedly.

Zhou Chuanqing: "..."

Wei Yang, who came along with him, waved his hand and ordered the officers and soldiers to tie up the twenty officers and soldiers. The leader of the officers and soldiers swallowed and bluffed, "Who are you?! How dare you arrest the court officials?"

Wei Yang was smiling with his hands in his hands, his face was a little round, and he looked friendly and easy to talk, but his lungs hurt when he was angry when he said it.

"I am your ancestor! I was ordered by the emperor to kill you bastards, do you think I have the guts?"

The leading officer and soldier were shaking with anger, staring at him speechlessly.

Wei Yang looked at him with a better mood, which is normal, "Wei Yang, Minister of Criminal Affairs, was ordered by the emperor to thoroughly investigate the ink corruption case in Nanming County, and all people related to Nanming County Sheriff will be brought back for trial. "

All the soldiers he brought were elite soldiers. As soon as he finished speaking, he immediately took down all of them decisively, including Wen Boli and the others who had been watching by the side before.

Wen Boli's legs went limp when he heard that people related to Nanming County Sheriff were about to be taken down. He looked at Wei Yang tremblingly, and said with a little luck: "My lord, we are just ordinary people who have been implicated. Why do you want to arrest us?"

Wei Yang turned to look at him, with the same smile on his face, "Do you think I'm stupid?"

Wen Boli shook his head in horror, looking at the smile on his face, he felt panicked.

"I found this in the study of the county magistrate of Sifang Town." Wei Yang shook the letter he found, his expression changed suddenly, and he said coldly, "I will escort them all out!"

A group of elite soldiers escorted them out, and four or five elite soldiers stayed behind with Wei Yang, looking at Chu Xiangtian eagerly.

They all came back with Chu Xiangtian, but Chu Xiangtian said that he was going to handle the case, so he threw them in Qingyang, the capital city. People who are used to fighting on the battlefield can't be idle at all. They are idle in the capital city. Changcao, as soon as he heard that Wei Yang was coming to Nanming County, he begged to follow him.

At this moment, they were all staring at Chu Xiangtian eagerly, eager to go back to the border as soon as possible. After months of not fighting, they felt exhausted.

Chu Xiangtian glanced coldly at a few of his subordinates, then turned his head to comfort Wen Tian in a warm voice, the young master almost got into a fight just now, the young master was a little frightened, his face was frighteningly pale.

Wen Tian cautiously poked his head over to look at those mighty elite soldiers, and said to Chu Xiangtian worriedly: "They are all looking at you, do they recognize your identity?"

"No." Chu Xiangtian opened his eyes and said nonsense, "They don't know me."

Wen Tian still frowned and was a little worried, and even changed places with Chu Xiangtian, trying to cover him a little with his body, so as not to let those people continue to look at him.

Chu Xiangtian was very upset in his heart, the young master was concerned about him, he curled his lips in pleasure, turned around and stared at some of his blank subordinates.

Why don't you hurry up and pretend to be a mallet here? !

Subordinates: "..."

The nervous men realized something was wrong after a while. They glanced at each other, then at the person in front of the general, showing that a man could understand the expression, and immediately dispersed, and took Wei Yang out by the way. So as not to be revenged by the general in time.

Without the threat, Wen Tian relaxed. He looked at Fu Youqin who was being supported by the butler, and asked worriedly if he should call the doctor over.

Fu Youqin shook her head. She was just too nervous just now. After the crisis was over, her nerves suddenly relaxed. The ups and downs made her body unbearable.

"Let me take care of my mother." Wen Shuyue came over with a maid. She was in the backyard and wanted to come out after hearing the movement, but was stopped by the servants arranged by Fu Youqin in advance. She ran over anxiously until the officers and soldiers had withdrawn. .

Wen Shuyue helped Fu Youqin to rest in the backyard, Zhou Chuanqing's eyes paused on her back, then looked away, and told Chu Xiangtian that he would follow Wei Yang to have a look.

Wen Tian wiped the sweat from his forehead, and together with Wen Ji settled down the servants in the mansion. Most of these servants were long-term workers in the mansion. They were from the Fu family and were loyal to the Fu family. , they did not retreat.

It's just that everyone is an ordinary person who has never seen real swords and guns. Thinking about them, Wen Tian was terrified, so he asked Wen Ji to reward them with silver rewards, and gave them a holiday to let them rest for a few days.

The servants dispersed and asked Wen Ji to close the door, and Wen Tian asked Chu Xiangtian if he wanted to go back together.He thanked Chu Xiangtian from the bottom of his heart, Chu Xiangtian helped him twice, and it is not an exaggeration to say that Wen Tian regards him as a respected benefactor.

Seeing the young master's frightened appearance, Chu Xiangtian pinched his face lightly. He was very moved, but thinking that there were still things to deal with, he still refused cruelly, "You go back and have a good rest, I will take care of some things Just come back."

Wen Tian nodded, and went back to the yard to rest with Dai Fu. He broke out in a cold sweat just now, the clothes on his back were soaked, and his limbs were cold. He had to take a hot bath to relax.

Chu Xiangtian went out to find Wei Yang.

Wei Yang has brought people back to the county government office in Sifang Town. After the county magistrate was arrested, he directly occupied the office of the county government office. Now more than [-] officers and soldiers and Wen Boli are all escorted to kneel in the courtroom .

The elite soldiers brought in stood in two rows and stood beside them, scanning them with Ling Lie's eyes.

Chu Xiangtian strode in, and the officers and soldiers on the far side saw him, and immediately called out "General".

Chu Xiangtian glanced at him, punched him on the shoulder, and said in dissatisfaction, "Why are you here to join in the fun?" and almost ruined his good business.

The simple and honest man who smiled was Yang Dashi, and he said in a rough voice, "The imperial city is boring, when are we going back to the border?"

"Go back to yourself."

There has been no war at the border for nearly a year, otherwise Chu Xiangtian would not have been secretly transferred back. In the past, he would have returned to the border to have a good time after finishing the case. When staying in the imperial city, he must abide by the rules. If he is wrong, he will be impeached by those old censors, which is really frustrating.

But today is different, he thinks the young master is more fun than fighting, and he can't wait to keep people under his nose all the time.

As soon as he thought of Wen Huang, Chu Xiangtian remembered that he had a serious business to come here.

He stretched his wrist, and walked to Wen Boli, who was kneeling with ashen face, Bai Ruihe leaned on Wen Zeming, his eyes were red as if he had been crying.

"Wen Boli?" Chu Xiangtian lowered his head slightly and called out to him with lowered eyes.

Wen Boli was against the light, so he couldn't see his expression clearly, but he heard the conversation just now, the soldier next to him called him "General", his eyes lit up, he straightened his body and begged himself, "Chu Young master, I am Youling's father, an ordinary businessman, take a look, is Master Wei misunderstood?"

Chu Xiangtian took a step back and looked at him with disgust. At this moment, the man was still using Wen Tian as a shield.

Seeing that he didn't speak, Wen Boli continued with a smirk, "If you don't believe me, you can call You Ling. It was all a misunderstanding before. I was fascinated by the women outside, and that's why I treated their mother and child that way."

"Brother Wen?"

"father?"

Bai Ruihe and Wen Zeming looked at him in disbelief.

Wen Boli didn't even turn his head, and continued: "I don't know the sheriff either. The reason why there is a letter of recommendation from the sheriff is because Bai Ruihe is on good terms with the sheriff's wife, and it has nothing to do with me."

What he said was true, he extracted himself from what he said, and put the blame on Bai Ruihe.

"You know what I hate the most in my life?"

Chu Xiangtian bent down and looked at him coldly.

Wen Boli shook his head blankly.

"What I hate the most is a softie like you." Chu Xiangtian kicked him on the chest, narrowed his eyes and said, "You can even betray your wife and children for money and official career, you are not worthy of being a man at all."

He kicked so hard that Wen Boli fell to the ground and moaned while clutching his chest.

Unable to understand his hatred, he went up and kicked him twice, Chu Xiangtian said coldly: "If I see you pestering Fu's house again, be careful of your head."

Wen Boli's mouth was filled with the smell of blood, and he couldn't sit up because of the pain, so he could only curl up and moan.

Bai Ruihe and Wen Zeming glanced at him, and the mother and son turned their eyes away together.

With a sneer, Chu Xiangtian pulled Wen Zeming out, held his collar with one hand, squinted his eyes and warned, "You'd better put away all your petty thoughts, otherwise, Wen Boli's end will be yours." after."

He was much taller than Wen Zeming, and Wen Zeming was grabbed by his collar, so he could only touch the ground on his toes, and was strangled by the collar so he couldn't breathe.

"We knew we were wrong, we knew we were wrong." Bai Ruihe cried and crawled over, with tears all over his face, wanting to grab Chu Xiangtian's leg.Chu Xiangtian threw Wen Zeming to the ground in disgust, avoiding her touch.

Regardless of the three people paralyzed on the ground, Chu Xiangtian looked a little happier, and said to Wei Yang who was watching the play: "These three people will be dealt with by you."

Wei Yang naturally understood what he meant. People in the criminal department always followed the law in their work. The letters of recommendation found at most proved that Wen Boli had friendship with Nanming County Sheriff, but he was not involved in the ink corruption case. It was still a long way before he could be convicted. Not enough.

However, Wei Yang had been immersed in the Ministry of Punishment for many years, and Chu Xiangtian personally confessed, so he naturally had a way to make them remember well in the limited time.

After talking about the business, Chu Xiangtian was ready to go back and guard his big baby.

Wei Yang behind him suddenly stopped him, and slowly took out an account book from his sleeve, "This was found in a villager's house."

Opening the account book, Wei Yang pointed to a certain line on one of the pages with a smile on his face. It was written in black and white: Ping Chu three years, February [-]th, received the gift money, five taels of gold.

Chu Xiangtian's eyelids twitched, this should be the time he ran into it, Wen Tian gave a box of silver to each of the three villagers.

He didn't expect that the young master was so generous that he would send out a box of gold by himself.Take the account book over and tear off the page with Wen Tian written on it.Chu Xiangtian stretched out his hand confidently to Wei Yang, "Where is the confiscated gold?"
