The System Forces Me to Be the Emperor

The assassin was dead, Xiao Rui immediately asked Li Yuanfang to call the head of the county government, Mengdu.

When Meng Du led the people into the yard and saw the body of the man in black on the ground, he was startled, and then glanced at Dian Wei who was carrying a pair of halberds, his legs went limp in fright.

But Xiao Rui said to him: "Assassins who dare to assassinate this official will also assassinate your lord! Hurry up and have a look."

Meng Dutou's complexion changed drastically, and he rushed to the back house with the police and yamen servants. He woke up Wu Biao's original wife, but he and his concubine couldn't be woken up. Finally, he had no choice but to break in and found the two dead in the room. .

Afterwards, Meng Du led someone to meet Xiao Rui, and said respectfully, "My lord, the county magistrate Wu has been killed. Now that the murderer has been killed, should we send someone to Jinhua mansion to deliver the letter?"

Xiao Rui said, "Who said there was only one murderer? The deceased was just one of the murderers in the three murder cases in Songyang County. Quickly gather your subordinates. The more the better, there will be a tough battle later. You arrange your troops." Divide into two routes and rush to Mingwen Academy and Sun's Pharmacy! The murderer did the evil ghost to kill people to cause panic and make it easier for them to find things."

"Ah?" Meng Du was a little stupid and didn't react for a while, but he quickly adjusted and immediately split into two groups.

The four of Xiao Rui went to Yao's residence.

At this time, Yao's house was pitch black.

Although Master Yao is dead and the funeral has not been handled yet, everyone has been burnt clean and there is not even a corpse. How can we handle the funeral? Coupled with the fact that the evil spirits became more and more serious, Master Yao's son couldn't hold on anymore after sending his family away, and went out to hide himself, leaving only a few stewards and some guards to guard the house.

But now these guards and stewards were all killed, and their bodies were lying in the house.

At the same time, more than a dozen men in black were digging in the garden at the center of Yao's house, as if they were looking for something.

At the same time, the Sun's pharmacy and Mingwen Shushu also had the same scene.

The four of Xiao Rui and three police officers came to the gate of Yao's house, and saw the door was wide open, and a group of people walked in quietly, and met the corpse lying on the ground.

Sure enough, Xiao Rui and Guo Jia's guess came true!

A group of people immediately went deep into the house, and soon found the man in black who was rummaging in the garden, and at this time, the vigilant man in black also spotted Xiao Rui and the others.

"The matter has been revealed! Kill them all!" In the middle of the men in black, a woman in black shouted, and immediately gave the order to attack. At the same time, she secretly screamed that it was not good, and the black protector failed. It seems that there is more than good luck!

They have been planning for so long, it stands to reason that they shouldn't fail!

Facing the men in black who were rushing to kill them, Li Yuanfang and Dian Wei rushed over without saying a word. The aura of the two of them alone became a crushing force, making the three arresters behind them forget to act.

The woman in black was also shocked by the strength of Dianwei and Li Yuanfang, she turned around and fled like a tiger in a herd of sheep, while Li Yuanfang gave up killing the enemy and followed them immediately.

The cultivation bases of the dozen or so men in black were not many, the highest was the fourth rank, and more were the second and third ranks. They couldn't help Dian Wei at all, and they swung their two halberds. If they didn't die, they would be seriously injured. In a moment, all twelve men in black were killed.

Xiao Rui said to the frightened policeman: "Don't be idle, keep digging! I want to see what treasures these people are going to dig!"

At the same time, the head of Mengdu rushed to Mingwen Academy and encountered the assassin of the man in black. With a crossbow, the man in black was repelled.

On the other side, the policemen and yamen servants who went to Sun's pharmacy suffered heavy casualties and all lost their lives.

At this time, Yao is in the house.

Three policemen dug the garden, and after a great deal of effort, they finally unearthed eight large boxes.

After opening, my boy.

Eight boxes turned out to be gold and silver!

Three of the boxes are gold!

Gold is a scarce substance. According to the laws of the Great Xia Kingdom, the circulation of gold among the people is not allowed, so copper coins made of iron or copper are used, and then silver is used. The significance of gold lies in the country's financial reserves, and it is the currency for trade between countries. The copper coins and silver ingots of the seven countries are different, but gold is the hard currency recognized by the seven countries.

The gold in these three large boxes is worth tens of thousands of taels.

Xiao Rui and Guo Jia glanced at each other. It seemed that the money should be the funds of the Black Lotus Sect. For some reason, it was brought to Songyang County by Master Yao, Master Meng, and Shopkeeper Sun, and the three lived a life of seclusion.

Of course, this is just speculation, Xiao Rui and Guo Jia haven't figured out what clues there are.

Afterwards, Xiao Rui asked the police to find a car, first transport the silver and gold back to the county government, and then quickly rushed to Mingwen Academy and Shopkeeper Sun's pharmacy.

At Mingwen Academy, five boxes were also dug up, but they were all silver.

But the box containing the silver in shopkeeper Sun's drug store has been taken away, and more than a dozen arresters and government servants were all killed.

When the sky was bright, all the boxes were transported to the county yamen, and then Xiao Rui summoned Meng Dutou, the policemen and yamen servants who had seen the silver, and revealed his true identity in front of them.

Meng Du was so frightened that he hurriedly handed over his hands to meet him. This time, Meng Du's head turned like a thief, and he immediately understood Xiao Rui's purpose of revealing his identity.

for what purpose For all the gold and silver in the house, of course!

Immediately, Xiao Rui recruited these people, and the dignified prince opened his mouth to solicit. Only a fool would refuse to join him. This is the prince of the Great Xia Kingdom! The rhythm of flying to the top!

In this way, Xiao Rui easily recruited these people, and he was not stingy. All the government officials and officials who sacrificed were given full pensions, and all injured officers were given full subsidies. Give enough hush money, all the money is taken, everyone is happy.

And then the rest of the gold and silver...

What gold and silver?

How can there be gold and silver!

There is nothing in this house!

The fact is that the rebels organized the Black Lotus Sect to assassinate the county magistrate of Songyang County. His Highness King Xian passed by here and killed these rebels!

Afterwards, Xiao Rui asked the county magistrate and the county lieutenant to preside over the overall situation, and announced the truth of the murder to eliminate the rumors. At the same time, he asked the county magistrate to organize local solidarity troops, and began to search inside and outside the county to hunt down the man in black who had escaped.

Li Yuanfang followed the escaped man in black and didn't return, so he didn't know what happened.

Immediately afterwards, Xiao Rui asked the county magistrate to send someone to Jinhua Mansion to inform the prefect and governor of Jinhua Mansion Zhang Sanqian to lead troops. This time, the troubles in Songyang County were too serious, nearly 20 people were killed or injured in the Guangfu Yamen, and the Black Lotus Sect was also involved, so they must be allowed to stabilize the overall situation.

After noon, Li Yuanfang came back in a hurry.

Xiao Rui quickly handed over the tea and asked, "How is it?"

Li Yuanfang gulped it all down, and said: "I followed the man in black out of the county seat, and headed southwest. After walking a few miles, she abandoned her horse and went into the forest, and I followed her quietly. , this woman is very cunning. She set a trap and turned back to prevent herself from being followed. Fortunately, it was night, which was good for tracking, and I was alert, so she didn't find her. Finally, I followed her to a stockade and saw her I entered a house. The people living in this stockade are not Han people, but She people. There are She people guarding the stockade, and I dare not approach. I guarded the neighborhood for more than half an hour. I turned back when I saw that the man in black did not come out. .”

The She people, a kind of nomadic people, moved from the original residence of the Great Yan Kingdom to the Great Xia Kingdom and became the people of the Great Xia Kingdom. There are many nomadic peoples in Daxia Kingdom, most of them are distributed in the south of Daxia, close to the border with Dayan Kingdom. Of course, it is not uncommon for this village in the south of Songyang County to be far from Dayan Kingdom.

Dayan Kingdom is a country with mixed ethnic groups, but Han people are the majority, accounting for about 70%.

Due to the different living habits of the She people, they have a strong sense of self-protection, so Li Yuanfang dare not trespass. Once trespassing is regarded as an invader, the whole village will attack, and Li Yuanfang will have to drink a pot.

"It seems that one of the strongholds of the Black Lotus Sect is in that She village." Xiao Rui said.

Guo Jia nodded and said: "Although people of this minority group have a strong sense of self-protection, and they are also related to the Black Lotus Sect, they can't act rashly for the time being. Let's talk about it when the Jinhua Mansion, the prefect and the governor Zhang Sanqian arrive. .At that time, with soldiers and horses, it will be easy to surround a She village."

Xiao Rui didn't speak, because his attention had already shifted to the system.

"Ding Dong's mission is completed, the host has found out the truth, alleviating the panic of the people, the descending value +30, the current descending value, the wish value is 4/4."

"Ding Dong's new task is started."

Xiao Rui was happy, he didn't expect a new mission, could it be related to the Black Lotus Sect?

So, he opened the system to check, and it was exactly as he guessed!

I saw the content as follows:

"New task: Please ask the host to personally investigate the true identity of the female saint of the Black Lotus Sect. After the task is completed, the descending value will be +50. This task is dangerous, so there will be no punishment."

It seems that Shezhai must be visited, and Xiao Rui is very moved by the abundant value of this mission. But the system also reminded that it is dangerous and belongs to the advent value.

The safe way is just like what Guo Jia said, wait for Zhang Sanqian to bring his troops, and then surround Shezhai to arrest them, but doing so will inevitably cause chaos in Shezhai. Will take the opportunity to escape, then trying to find her is like looking for a needle in a haystack.

Moreover, for Xiao Rui's safety, Zhang Sanqian would never let Xiao Rui put himself in danger.

Therefore, after making a decision in Xiao Rui's heart, he did not agree with Guo Jia's suggestion, but said: "Feng Xiao, I can't wait for Zhang Sanqian, I need to go to Shezhai personally, and meet the Hei Lian sect inside." !"

"Your Highness, why?" Guo Jia was puzzled, he couldn't figure out the reason for Xiao Rui's request.

Xiao Rui couldn't use the mission as an excuse, so he said, "I have my own reasons."

Hearing this, Guo Jia knew that Xiao Rui had made up his mind, so he said: "With the protection of Yuanfang and Dianwei, we pretend to be passers-by. Be careful and there should be no danger. It's just that when we went to Yao's house yesterday, the escaped female assassin Seeing how we look, it's more troublesome."

Li Yuanfang smiled and said: "It's okay sir, I know a little about disguise, we can dress up, last night was dark and dark, and that female assassin couldn't see carefully."

"In that case, let's go!" Guo Jia said immediately.

Xiao Rui smiled and said, "Thank you Feng Xiao for your support."

Guo Jia said righteously: "As His Highness' counselor, it is irresponsible to agree to His Highness to go to Shezhai this time. It is absolutely unwise to put His Highness on the brink of danger. But I also know that Your Highness is a man. Conghui has his own opinion, since His Highness is going this time, there must be important reasons, so all I can do is to be careful at all times to ensure that everything is safe. As for the words of thanks, please take them back!"

Xiao Rui's heart warmed, and he nodded vigorously.
