“But I heard that you even beat up their old butler.”Tong Fu Ling continued to ask the.
“If the dog is disobedient, I will beat it up. This is the same as Lord Tong’s subordinates just now. Could it be that this matter has something to do with me?”Xu Bai said casually.
When Commander Tong heard this, he stood up with a swoosh. “Lord Xu, you’re just a post station chief. The words you’re saying now are too disrespectful to me. Do you know that just based on what you said just now, I can put you in jail?”
Xu Bai tilted his head and said carelessly,””ls there anything else?”
Tong Manor Head was stunned and confused by this sentence. He subconsciously said,”No, I haven’t.”
“Ye Zi, let’s go.” Xu Bai stood up and turned to leave.
Ye Zi followed behind Xu Bai and did not say a word. She also did not look at the Tong Residence Magistrate.
The entire process was filled with contempt, not treating Tong Manor Ling as a person at all.
It was still the same sentence. Bai had always been a person who would be coaxed but not forced. From the moment he came here, Tong Fu Ling had been constantly threatening him.
His temper was rather irritable. If others respected him, he would respect them. If you don’t give me face, then I won’t give you face either.
“Stop!” Tong Manor Magistrate naturally felt embarrassed and shouted angrily,”lf you dare to take another step, I will capture you.”
There had never been a person who dared to be so arrogant in front of him. At least, he had never taken a fancy to a person in the martial arts world. Now, they were ignoring him instead.
This was his government office, but he was treated like this. He could not control himself at all.
“Swoosh!”
The puppet of the Fourth Stage drew the long saber at its waist.
“I advise Lord Tong to understand the ways of the world. Without evidence, you dare to touch me? If you delay my trip to the capital, can you stand it if I accuse you in front of His Majesty?”Xu Bai said slowly.
The Tong Residence Magistrate remained silent, and his eyes revealed a cautious expression.
Indeed, Xu Bai was now in the capital to accept the Emperor’s reward. If he was delayed because of his matter and found out that he had nothing to do with Xu Bai in the end, it would be a slap to the Emperor’s face.
After all, the one who was delayed was not Xu Bai, but the emperor.
If the Emperor wanted to reward a person and you detained this person, then when the news spread from person to person, the one who suffered would be yourself.
Xu Bai saw that the face of the Tong Residence Magistrate had turned ashen. He laughed disdainfully and turned to leave.
Even after Xu Bai walked out of the door, the Tong Residence Magistrate still did not say a word. His previous arrogance was completely different from now.
After leaving the government office, Xu Bai brought Ye Zi and the puppet of the Fourth Stage back to the inn.
He took out a nameless saber scripture and continued to read the progress bar. As for what had happened before, he did not care at all and only treated it as an interlude.
Ye Zi rubbed her shoulders. The fourth grade puppet served tea and water. Xu Bai’s small days were also very comfortable.
He was living comfortably here, but the more Tong Manor Magistrate thought about it in the government office, the angrier he felt.
Originally, he wanted to drink a mouthful of tea to calm himself down, but when it reached his mouth, the Tong Residence Magistrate no longer had the mood to drink it. Recalling the encounter just now, he threw the teacup on the ground with a bang, shattering it into pieces.
There was already no one here. After all, when they saw the Prefect Magistrate lose his temper, everyone had already quietly retreated, lest it would be bad for them if they saw too much.
“Bastard, you’re simply a bastard! You’re just a Jianghu person. You’re just lucky. How dare you shout at me!”The Tong Residence Magistrate slammed the table angrily, his eyes red with anger.
“Sir, don’t be angry.” At this moment, a person walked into the backyard of the government office. He comforted him while telling the Tong Residence Magistrate not to be angry.
“Xu Bai dared to treat me like this, and you want me not to be angry?”The Tong Residence Magistrate said angrily.
He had recruited this person some time ago. As his old butler had passed away due to illness a while ago, he had recruited a new one. Although this person looked young, he was very capable, so the Tong Residence had made an exception and recruited him.
The butler’s surname was Chen, and he was not old.
Butler Chen smiled.” It’s bad to be angry. Your Excellency, don’t hold it in when you’re angry. You have to vent it out to relieve it.””
“How?” Tong Manor Magistrate tried his best to calm himself down. “You can’t catch him, so what else can you do?”
The only thing that could help him vent his anger was to make Xu Bai kneel down and kowtow in front of him.
“Of course, why can’t I?”Butler Chen smiled slightly and said,” It’s just that there’s no evidence. Sir, you can create some evidence. ‘”‘
As soon as he finished speaking, the scene fell silent.
After a moment, the voice of the Tong Residence Magistrate was heard.
“Forging evidence, do you know that this is a violation of the laws of Great Chu?”When Tong Manor Magistrate heard this, his face was filled with surprise.
Indeed, he wanted to vent his anger, but he had never thought of this method. After all, this method completely violated the laws of Great Chu.
However, after hearing Butler Chen’s words, he started thinking about it. It was as if something had taken root in his heart and could not be removed.
“Sir, we are just making a false testimony to make him suffer. Then, we will say that the evidence is wrong and has nothing to do with us.”Butler Chen continued.
The Tong Residence Magistrate fell into deep thought..
