Chapter 210 Are you not convinced?
At this moment, Jiang Zuo suddenly stretched out his foot and kicked the yamen runner directly, shouting angrily: "Get out of here, you dare to touch my woman?"
This immediately surprised the yamen runners.
They had never expected that Jiang Zuo would dare to take direct action.
"you wanna die!"
The yamen runner was immediately furious, and his right hand was already on his sword.
"I am an envoy from the State of Yan. Do you dare to touch me?"
Jiang Zuo said slowly.
Qin Yu clenched her fists tightly and still did not dare to turn her head. At this moment, she was ready to take out the dagger in her arms and wanted to kill these yamen runners.
But the movements of Jiang Zuo's hands seemed to be trying to calm Qin Yu's nervousness.
"Envoy from Yan?"
The group of yamen runners frowned and stared at Jiang Zuo's face.
"No wonder it looks so familiar..."
They looked at each other.
At this moment, the situation suddenly came to a standstill.
"You bunch of idiots still want to stop me? Get out of here!"
Jiang Zuo spoke wildly again.
"This is the State of Chen, not your State of Yan."
The leading yamen runner gritted his teeth and looked directly at Jiang Zuo, obviously extremely unconvinced.
Jiang Zuo said disdainfully: "Why, you are not convinced?"
The yamen runner was speechless, holding his sword tightly in his right hand.
"If you dare to attack me, then the two countries can forget about peace talks."
Hearing this, the group of yamen runners were stunned.
After all, this is a major event between the two countries, and these yamen runners did not dare to really take action against Jiang Zuo.
"Even if you, Magistrate Pan, come, you have to make way for me."
Jiang Zuo said arrogantly.
Hearing Pan Hou's name, the group of yamen runners could only grit their teeth, staring fiercely at Jiang Zuo and the woman next to Jiang Zuo.
Definitely suspicious!
Even if they had suspicions, they did not dare to take action against Jiang Zuo.
"Get lost now."
Jiang Zuo’s main feature is arrogance.
He was certain that these Chen State runners would never dare to do anything to him.
After a moment, Jiang Zuo hugged Qin Yu and left the place.
The yamen runner stared at the two men's backs with fierce eyes and said in a low voice: "Go back to the yamen!"
Guangning County Government Office.
"Sir, that envoy from the State of Yan is too overbearing and domineering. He doesn't take our county government seriously at all and even dared to hit someone."
The yamen runner complained to Pan Hou.
"That Jiang Zuo again?"
Pan Hou frowned, thinking that since this person came to Guangning City, he seemed to be causing trouble for the State of Chen all the time.
"Why did he hit someone?"
Pan Hou was quite confused.
"I saw a suspicious woman next to him and wanted to approach him to question him, but he resisted and kicked me. He even threatened me with his identity as an envoy of Yan State."
The subordinates reported truthfully.
"Suspicious woman? Could she be the remnant of the Qin family?"
Pan Hou whispered, feeling a little more surprised.
"I feel that it is these Yan people who are deliberately protecting the Qin family's traitors. Otherwise, how could we not find any trace of the Qin family at all?"
The subordinate said.
Pan Hou also fell into deep thought.
He had already guessed this in his mind.
But their Guangning County Government had already searched the Yan State delegation twice. If they broke in to look for someone again, it would not only be against the rules, but would also anger the Yan people.
"The envoy from Yan State even said arrogantly that even if you, Lord Pan, were to go ahead, you would have to get out of the way and make way for him. This is not an exaggeration on my part, but the exact words of the Yan State envoy."
The subordinate complained again.
"So arrogant?"
Pan Hou had long been very dissatisfied with Jiang Zuo. Even though he still smiled when they met on weekdays, he had secretly sent people to monitor him many times.
"Did you see the woman's face clearly?"
Pan Hou asked again.
Now he has this important person at hand. The remnants of the Qin family have appeared in Guangning City for more than a month, and have even been inciting the people in Guangning City to rebel.
If she is not found soon, Pan Hou’s official hat may be lost.
"My Lord, that woman has been hiding behind the Yan envoy. She is completely guilty and refuses to let us see her face clearly."
The subordinate replied.
"That's absolutely correct!"
Pan Hou slammed the table hard, and suddenly he understood.
"I have long guessed that Jiang Zuo has ulterior motives. He intends to harbor the remnants of the Qin family. He must want to use the power of the Qin family to deal with our Chen State."
Jiang Zuo was able to think of this, and Pan Hou, as the prefect of Guangning who had dealt with the Yan people for many years, was naturally very clear about it.
"Immediately dispatch more personnel to secretly monitor the situation of the Yan State delegation."
Pan Hou ordered.
"As you command, I will go and do it later."
The subordinate said.
"Not later, right now."
Pan Hou seemed a little anxious.
If he lets the remnant of the Qin family escape again, he, as the prefect, cannot bear the blame.
"Sir, everyone in the government office has things to do right now."
The subordinate lowered his head and said.
"What could possibly happen to them?"
Pan Hou's eyes were full of majesty.
"There is no one on duty at the yamen now..."
The subordinate whispered.
"no one?"
There was a hint of anger on Pan Hou's face.
At this hour, there was no one on duty in the yamen.
"Your Excellency, today is the day for the bond sale. My colleagues may go there to...maintain order."
The subordinate said nervously.
"What bonds?"
Pan Hou frowned.
"That's what the merchant Qian Dong is selling. If you buy it for seven days, you can get a 10% profit. Now the whole Guangning City, and even the State of Chen, are coming here to buy these bonds. Now our Guangning City is famous. Tomorrow, there will be hundreds of thousands of people entering and leaving the city."
The subordinate replied.
"Isn't that a hoax? Stop this farce immediately!"
Pan Hou felt a little uneasy.
As the prefect of Guangning, he was well-read and insightful. He absolutely did not believe that there was such a thing as getting something for nothing in this world.
Although it is not clear whether the merchant Qian Dong has any connection with the Yan people, it is better to be cautious.
"But sir, the money that those wealthy merchants lent out was fully repaid by that Qian Dong merchant, without any arrears. It shouldn't be fake, right?"
The subordinate was hesitant in his words and did not do as he was told.
Pan Hou turned his head and looked at his subordinates. He quickly understood: "Are you involved in this?"
"S-Sir, I..."
The subordinate spoke hesitantly, obviously feeling guilty.
In fact, it was not just him, almost the entire Guangning County Government had gotten involved.
Only Pan Hou was left, still kept in the dark.
After all, it's such a good thing, it would be a waste not to make money from it.
"It's so confusing!"
Pan Hou scolded angrily.
"Prefect Pan, why are you so angry?"
At this time, someone suddenly asked.
Following the voice, Zheng Mingxu, the Minister of Rites, appeared in front of Pan Hou.
"Meet Minister Zheng."
Pan Hou calmed down his anger a little, and felt a little uneasy facing this official from the imperial court.
