Provoked the County Magistrate
On the Spirit Fog Tower, Fang Jun was holding King Qi Li You's collar as he sat on a table. At this moment, King Qi no longer had the nobility of a prince. His face was covered in tears and snot, and his originally fair face had become even paler.
Everyone present was King Qi's lackey, and now that King Qi had been captured, these lackeys were afraid to act. They could only glare angrily at Fang Jun. If looks could kill, Fang Jun would have been cut into pieces.
Li Siwen was still fine. He stopped after the others stopped, but Cheng Chubi had been controlled for so long and had been hit countless times. He was so angry that he picked up a low stool and smashed it at the people beside him."You bastard, you still dare to touch me! You even hit my balls? I'll smash you bastards to death today!”
Those who were beaten could only protect their vital parts and beg for mercy. Those who were not beaten by Cheng San twitched their mouths. This Cheng San really had the same personality as his father, Cheng Yaojin.
Just as Fang Jun was about to ask Cheng Chu Bi to stop, a flurry of footsteps came from the stairs. Several officers dressed in Chang 'an's bailiffs rushed up.
After the officers came up, they did not dare to do anything to the young masters. They only stood in two rows. Soon, more people came up.
A middle-aged man wearing a red official robe walked up. He had a fair complexion and a simple appearance. His long beard was soft and elegant.
After this person entered, he looked around and scanned the situation. He secretly heaved a sigh of relief. Fortunately, nothing major had happened. When he saw Fang Er grabbing King Qi's collar, his mouth twitched.
"I am Zhao Li, the county magistrate of Chang 'an. Greetings, Your Highness."”
After County Magistrate Zhao Li finished speaking, he stared at Fang Jun's hand that was holding King Qi's collar. Fang Jun chuckled and let go of his hand, slightly cupping his hands."I am Fang Jun. Greetings to the Ming Residence."
Li Siwen and Cheng Chu Bi didn't bother to greet him, they just casually cupped their hands and considered it a greeting. Zhao Li didn't mind.
At this moment, King Qi Li You looked at Fang Jun with hatred. He was both embarrassed and angry. He had never lost face in front of so many people! He roared angrily,"
"Fang Jun, you deserve to die! Who do you think you are? How dare you hit me? Just you wait, this king will definitely let father kill you, kill you!”
After Fang Jun released King Qi, he scrambled back into his group, pointing at Fang Jun and cursing.
Zhao Li's smiling expression suddenly froze. King Qi was too shallow, like a child. He was being looked down upon. Although he felt contempt, he didn't show it."Don't worry, Your Highness. I will enforce the law impartially.”
"Impartial law enforcement, your mother!" Li You roared. This king is His Majesty's son. Now that I've been beaten up, doesn't that person deserve to die? He was looking down on the imperial family! He looked down on his father! Zhao Li, this king orders you to chop this guy up immediately!”
Zhao Li's expression changed when he heard this. He was just a King Qi of a vassal state. In front of him, he did not have much face!
Zhao Li said coldly," Your Highness, you have no right to order me. I will handle this case impartially. If Your Highness has any opinions, you can report it to His Majesty for my reference."”
Zhao Li's merciless words caused King Qi's face to twitch in anger.
"Young Master Fang, Young Master Li, Young Master Cheng, can you follow me to the yamen?”
If this was an ordinary person, Zhao Li would have already gotten someone to lock him up and take him back to the yamen. However, these young masters gave him a headache, not to mention that they involved a prince.
Fang Jun laughed when he heard that. Since the officials had already arrived, his show could come to an end. He nodded and said," Rest assured, Ming Residence. We will follow you, but…"
Fang Jun glanced at King Qi Li You and chuckled."It has never been easy to get into a fight. We will follow you. This King Qi…"
Fang Jun's words made Li You glare."This king is a dignified prince. Do you still dare to capture this king?”
Fang Jun didn't say anything. He just looked at Zhao Li with a faint smile. His meaning was self-evident. If you don't catch Li You, don't even think about catching us.
Zhao Li knew that he couldn't afford to offend either side. The only thing he could do was to bring both sides back first and investigate thoroughly.
"Your Highness King Qi, even if you're a prince, you're still subject to the laws of the Great Tang. It's best if you go with me to the county government first.”
Li You was furious, but he was just a prince. If he cooperated with the investigation now, he could still be reasonable. If he did not cooperate, then this matter would really become his problem. He could only roar,"Good! Good, good! You, a small official, dare to meddle in this king's affairs. Just you wait!”
After saying that, he said to the group of followers beside him,"Come with me. I want to see how this Chang 'an County Magistrate will enforce the law impartially and deal with this bastard who despises the royal family!”
A large group of people left the Spirit Fog Tower in a grandiose manner, leaving only Zhao Li and a chief clerk of the county government.
The registrar's face was filled with anxiety. He asked,"Ming Residence, what should we do about this case?”
Zhao Li had a constipated expression."Cold salad. On one side are the sons of three High Dukes, and on the other side is King Qi. What can a mere fifth rank county magistrate like me do? Take it one step at a time. How about this, take this token of mine and go to the Ministry of Central Affairs to look for my good friend, Ma Zhou,"
After the registrar heard this, he nodded and turned around to run downstairs. Only then did Zhao Li relax. He said softly to the woman in gauze,"May I ask if Miss Ling 'er is here?”
The woman behind the bead curtain nodded gently."Yes, I am. May I know what instructions the Ming residence has?”
Zhao Li hurriedly said," I don't dare to give orders. I wonder if I can ask Miss Ling 'er to come to the county government to testify?"”
"The Ming Residence dares to enforce the law impartially in front of the imperial power. What reason does this little girl have to refuse?" the woman said softly.”
