Startled, he turned and ran.

The man in the backyard heard something was wrong.

He also turned and ran outside.

Zhao Yuan also heard people running away from behind.

He caught up with the woman in one stride.

He knocked her unconscious on the ground.

He then dashed to the backyard and chased after the man.

They hadn't run far from the yard,

Zhao Yuan then caught up with the man.

He grabbed her collar.

The man realized he couldn't escape.

He pulled a dagger from his pocket.

He turned and stabbed at Zhao Yuan's chest.

Zhao Yuan grabbed the man's wrist.

Use a little force.

The man then let out a miserable scream.

Once the fingers loosened,

The dagger fell to the ground.

Zhao Yuan ripped the warm hat off the man's head.

But it was a man I didn't recognize.

"How dare they run a shady business!"

"Hey, I just regret not killing you!"

The man, his eyes red, gritted his teeth and said.

"Kill me? What grudge do we have?"

Zhao Yuan asked in surprise.

"Hmph, you bandit, you don't even remember!"

The man said angrily,

"My family was originally a prominent family in Jizhou, but we were inexplicably wiped out by your Liangshan forces,"

"I'm the only one left alive in my whole family,"

"I only hate that God is so unfair!"

"I'll let a scoundrel like you live!"

"Heh, is God unfair?"

Zhao Yuan sneered.

"If Heaven is fair, then wealthy and powerful families like yourselves..."

"They should have died long ago, without a proper burial place!"

"Do you dare say that your family has never oppressed good people or extorted money from them?"

"Hmph, for thousands of years, hasn't every family lived like this?"

The man stared wide-eyed and said,

"Those ignorant people deserve to be bullied!"

"hehe,"

Zhao Yuan was too lazy to say anything more to this man.

He simply reached out and snapped his neck.

Throw the man to the ground.

I heard another person running in the distance.

The most likely guess is the waiter who led the horse earlier.

So she didn't chase after him.

Once inside the house,

Zhao Yuan woke the woman up.

The woman slowly awoke.

Seeing that Zhao Yuan was pinching her philtrum,

With a roll of his eyes,

Then she fainted again.

"Am I that scary?"

Zhao Yuan shook his head helplessly.

They pinched it for a while longer.

The woman then woke up again.

"what!"

This time, the woman did not faint upon waking up.

She just opened her mouth and let out a piercing scream.

Zhao Yuan frowned and said, "Alright, stop yelling."

The woman saw Zhao Yuan frowning.

He quickly stopped screaming.

"Your Majesty, please spare my life."

Zhao Yuan stood up and nodded.

"Get up and speak."

The woman then realized she was lying on the ground.

He subconsciously tightened his collar.

Then he remembered that he had been knocked unconscious and fallen down by Zhao Yuan earlier.

The clothes had not been touched.

The woman blushed deeply with embarrassment.

stand up,

Her head was almost drooping down to her high, round chest.

This woman was naturally alluring.

Her shy and timid demeanor is even more charming.

Zhao Yuan was somewhat agitated by what he saw.

He asked a few questions.

The answer received

They were all similar to the man from before.

This family,

These must be the fish that Liangshan caught when they dealt with those rural gentry.

Zhao Yuan was pondering how to deal with the woman.

Suddenly, a commotion arose outside the shop.

Stepping outside,

It was the waiter who had run away before.

They arrived with a dozen or so villagers.

The waiter pointed at Zhao Yuan.

"That's him, that's him."

A burly villager limped forward a couple of steps.

"I am the village head. Did you kill Qian San, the shopkeeper?"

Zhao Yuan nodded and said, "This fellow tried to drug me, so he only has himself to blame."

The waiter said, "Nonsense, I've worked here for a long time."

"I have never seen a guest get robbed here."

There, Zheng also said, "He really did use sleeping pills."

"It should be decided by the government,"

“It’s wrong of you to commit murder without permission,”

"If you know what's good for you, surrender and we'll take you to the county office."

"Otherwise, sticks have no eyes, and it will be too late to regret it when they hurt you."

Zhao Yuan observed that no one here was abusing their power to bully others.

What he said was reasonable and well-founded.

He didn't say anything more.

Take out your waist tag.

“I am a man from Daliang. This man runs a shady inn and is taking lives.”

"He has been personally executed by me."

"You can just report this to the authorities like this,"

"That way, they won't have to keep searching for the killer."

Chapter 1669 Veteran

When the villagers heard Zhao Yuan say that he was the King of Liang,

Chaos ensued.

The burly man retorted, "How dare you impersonate someone from Liangshan!"

"Grandpa won't teach you a lesson today,"

"I'm also sorry to my brothers in Liangshan."

After saying that, he limped forward.

Zhao Yuan sensed that this man seemed to have stayed at Liangshan.

Take a few steps forward,

"If you've ever stayed in Liangshan, you should have seen me before."

When the man arrived,

However, he recognized Zhao Yuan.

He quickly knelt down and said,

"Ding San pays his respects to the King."
