Chapter 109: Something Happened

"Remnants of the Demon Sect! Don't you surrender yet!"

Centurion Yu walked into the main hall aggressively, his sharp gaze sweeping over the Gao family members.

Zheng Ci, who was following behind, sneered repeatedly. Now he wanted to see what the Gao family could do, and whether the expert in the dark dared to come out.

The Gao family members were all ashen-faced, completely losing the idea of resistance.

Of course, some people hoped that the expert in the dark could come out, perhaps to solve the current predicament, but after waiting for a long time, the expert didn't appear, and instead, Lv Fang walked out.

"Are you invited by Zheng Ci?"

He asked hesitantly.

Centurion Yu was stunned, then sneered: "Who is Zheng Ci? This official received a letter from Lord Wenguan, so I came to support."

After speaking, he took out a token from his bosom, which was Minister Xie Yifan's token.

Zheng Ci was dumbfounded, and he muttered: "Lord, what Lord Wenguan? Aren't you Centurion Xu's subordinate?"

"Xu Hao?"

Centurion Yu frowned and looked at Zheng Ci: "What are you talking about?"

The people on the field looked at each other, all seeing confusion in each other's eyes. What was going on?

Lv Fang chuckled: "It turns out to be a misunderstanding. That's easy to handle. I asked the people at the Shen family auction house to invite you. This Zheng family disregards the law and harms commoners and merchants at will; it must be thoroughly investigated."

As soon as these words came out, the whole audience was shocked.

Master Gao's eyes lit up, and he stammered: "Is this all true?"

Gao Youyao frowned, then nodded, suddenly enlightened: "So that's it. Fang Lu used Lord Wenguan's name to notify the Northern Camp, which is why he called people over."

She hurriedly took out the Image-Recording Talisman: "Lord, this talisman records the evidence of the Zheng family harming our Gao family's business."

Centurion Yu looked at the token in his hand in confusion, then looked at Lv Fang. The token was indeed real. But how could this person have it?

"We in the Northern Camp don't care about local affairs, unless there is a special situation."

Zheng Ci hurriedly said: "Lord is right. According to the laws of the Great Zhou, local military generals cannot interfere with local government affairs without authorization. These people are truly unruly, and they dare to falsely accuse imperial officials in the name of Lord Wenguan."

"Lord, I, as the former magistrate of Beicheng, ask you to help the imperial court and exterminate all these remnants of the Demon Sect."

Centurion Yu snorted coldly: "What are you in a hurry for! Don't interrupt me! Do you recognize this token? This is the token of the Minister of War. In my opinion, this is a special situation."

"This... is the token really the Minister of War's?"

Zheng Ci was in disbelief.

"Otherwise, how do you think we came here?" Centurion Yu looked at Lv Fang: "This young master, why do you have this token?"

Lv Fang smiled gently: "This is not important. You should know that seeing the token is like seeing the Minister of War. I don't ask you to do anything, just preside over justice."

Centurion Yu nodded and looked at Gao Youyao: "You just said you have evidence, take it out and let me see. Tell me what happened."

Gao Youyao hesitated and looked at Lv Fang. Seeing him nod, she finally gritted her teeth and handed the Image-Recording Talisman to Centurion Yu, and told the whole story.

After Centurion Yu heard the process and looked at the Image-Recording Talisman, he waved his hand: "Come, control the Zheng family people."

Zheng Ci's face was ashen.

Zheng Youqing was even worse: "Lord, this token must be fake. This person named Fang Lu might be a remnant of the Demon Sect."

However, Centurion Yu ignored him.

Just then, Zheng Bao also returned. He looked at the Northern Camp people in the mansion and walked into the main hall in confusion:

"Father, why are there so many Northern Camp people here? I went to the Northern Camp, and that Centurion Xu was put in prison because he committed a crime."

As soon as he finished speaking, Zheng Bao was already controlled by someone twisting his arm.

One day later.

Because the Zheng family in Beicheng committed various crimes, they were put into prison, waiting for the Ministry of Justice's review of the crimes. Without accident, Zheng Ci, Zheng Bao, and Zheng Youqing were all sentenced to death.

The Gao family was rewarded for reporting, and everyone was released and given some rewards.

Outside the county government.

Temporary Magistrate Hu Heng cupped his hands: "Master Gao, congratulations. You have survived a disaster and will surely have good fortune. In the future, the Gao family is destined to have a bright future."

Master Gao laughed happily: "I'll take your auspicious words, Magistrate Hu."

Gao Youyao, who was beside Master Gao: "Magistrate Hu, why are we missing one person? Where is Fang Lu?"

Xue'er nodded vigorously: "Before, Young Master Fang didn't stay with us. Could it be that he is still in the county government?"

For the past day, they had been under house arrest in various parts of the county government.

So they didn't see Lv Fang, but now that they were all out, they still didn't see him, so they had this speculation.

Lady Liu nodded with a smile: "This time our Gao family can avoid disaster, thanks to this child Fang Lu. Xue'er, go to the county government and invite Young Master Fang out."

Hu Heng gave a bitter smile: "No need, that Young Master Fang left long ago."

"What? Left long ago?" Gao Youyao hesitated: "That doesn't make sense. He is a down-and-out scholar; he hasn't been paid for the Third Rank Haoran Zhengqi Pill, and he just left?"

Hu Heng looked around and lowered his voice: "Do you really think that Young Master Fang is a down-and-out scholar?"

Yu Guanshi Sun beside him nodded vigorously: "Magistrate, the first time I saw Young Master Fang, he was lying on the ground begging for food in a sorry state; he is indeed a down-and-out scholar."

Hu Heng shook his head: "A down-and-out scholar can have a Third Rank Haoran Zhengqi Pill? Can have the Minister of War's token, can command the manager of the Great Zhou's richest Shen family auction house?"

"The expert hidden in the dark you mentioned? It was him."

"If my guess is correct, his name is not Fang Lu, and he is probably some big figure. I heard that the Shen family ancestor likes to disguise himself and travel everywhere; maybe it's him."

"Of course I'm not sure, but this person is definitely extraordinary, not some down-and-out scholar."

When the Gao family took the carriage back to the mansion, they were still wondering who Lv Fang was.

Gao Youyao sighed and muttered to herself: "Fang Lu, Lv Fang, don't you think Young Master Fang is Lord Wenguan?"

Xue'er, who bought a *Da Zhou Wen Bao* on the road, got into the carriage and happened to hear this sentence, shaking her head repeatedly:

"Impossible! How could it be Lord Wenguan."

"Why not?" Gao Youyao raised her eyebrows: "Fang Lu, Lv Fang, Xue'er, don't you think these names are too similar?"

Xue'er blinked her eyes and said: "If it really is Lord Wenguan, then haven't I served him a bath? If I had known, I would have..."

After Lv Fang confirmed that the matter was settled, he left Beicheng. As for the silver for the Third Rank Haoran Zhengqi Pill, he just forgot.

Later, when he thought about it, he felt a bit embarrassed to come back and ask for it.

He simply continued his travels, but he didn't travel for two days before something happened to Lu Ling in Jingcheng! ===== CHAPTER 110 =====
