This is your world

Chapter 216 Plan failed

"What? Let him go?"

When he heard the servant's report, Zhou Zhongzheng climbed up from the bed and stared at the servant in front of him with a gloomy expression: "What's going on?"

"Sir, yes, that's what happened..."

The visitor carefully explained what happened.

After listening to this, Zhou Zhongzheng's originally gloomy expression suddenly turned very ugly.

"Tai, does the governor know?!"

There was a hint of fear and panic in Zhou Zhongzheng's eyes: "You, everything you said is true?!"

"Sir, it's absolutely true... The prefect had previously sent his county magistrate to the Yamen just for this matter... The prefect already knew about this matter! And I heard that the magistrate returned to Xu The evidence provided by your Excellency..."

At this moment, Zhongzhou was a little panicked!

Things happened too fast and unexpectedly, catching him off guard.

He is not stupid. The governor's sudden intervention in this matter must be for him!

Something is going to happen!

Zhou Zhongzheng looked slightly panicked, but then he seemed to have thought of something: "So, where is Li Beifeng? Where are the others?"

"Then Li Beifeng, I don't know where he invited Miss Murong from Qingxiang Tower to testify for him. Now, Mr. Xu has let him go..."

"Crack!"

Zhou Zhongzheng fell back on the bed again, his expression getting increasingly ugly.

Let go?

Let go?

He worked so hard and took such big risks just to deal with the man named Li.

In the end, he paid such a heavy price, but Li Beifeng was safe and sound?

This time, he really lost his wife and his troops! !

Since the night before, there has been no turning back for him.

Zhou Zhongzheng knew very well that if he made such a big noise that night, it would definitely attract the attention of the prefect.

However, he didn't take it seriously when he vented his anger in order to eradicate Li Beifeng.

But it's just disrupting the order of the streets. Even if the prefect gets caught, it won't hurt or have much impact.

But what Zhou Zhongzheng didn't expect was that Li Beifeng was rescued by Zhou Qiuning. Zhou Qiuning's behavior disrupted all his plans.

Moreover, their Zhou family’s worshiper, Senior Xu, died because of this!

This was completely unacceptable to Zhou Zhongzheng.

Senior Xu was the worshiper of their Zhou family, the master they spent a lot of energy to retain, and the trump card and confidence of their Zhou family. He died like this...

To this day, Zhou Zhongzheng still thinks that Zhou Qiuning saved Li Beifeng that night.

That senior Xu naturally died in Zhou Qiuning's hands.

this……

This made Zhou Zhongzheng grit his teeth.

Unexpectedly, the plan fell into the hands of his own people in the end.

He worked hard to withstand such great pressure, but not only failed to retaliate against Li Beifeng, but also caused heavy losses to himself.

Zhou Zhongzheng was so angry that he couldn't care less.

Since Li Beifeng cannot be solved secretly. Then it would be better to use the power of the government to deal with Li Beifeng.

Therefore, he quickly planned the murder and put the blame on Li Beifeng.

This step of his was almost flawless.

Mr. Xu, the yamen of the county town, has a relationship with his Zhou family. We can only take Li Beifeng back to the Yamen, and with the evidence he provided, Li Beifeng will definitely be put behind bars.

Li Beifeng has no chance to turn around!

As long as Li Beifeng can be eliminated, the great revenge will be avenged. Even if he offended the prefect, it was all worth it in Zhou Zhongzheng's eyes.

However, all failed!

Li Beifeng is safe and sound, which is a great insult to him!

At the same time, it also made Zhou Zhongzheng realize that something was wrong.

That prefect acted too quickly.

No……

That's not the case at all!

At this moment, Zhou Zhongzheng finally reacted.

He is so naive!

From the beginning, the prefect had been watching his every move.

Any behavior he does is probably under the supervision of the prefect.

That's why Li Beifeng took action immediately when he was arrested.

Thinking of this, Zhou Zhongzheng broke into a cold sweat.

His plan was disrupted by the prefect.

So next...

Zhou Zhongzheng's face became increasingly ugly, and an ominous premonition came to his mind.

Murder, frame up...

Once these crimes are found and revealed by the prefect, the consequences will be disastrous.

What a disaster!

After calming down, Zhou Zhongzheng finally realized the seriousness of the matter.

"Mr. Gongzi..."

At this moment, another servant hurriedly walked in from outside the door.

"Sir, I'm calling you to come over."

Zhou Zhongzheng's face became increasingly ugly, and even his father was alarmed. That means that this matter... is really serious.

"father!"

In the hall, Zhou Zhong was hanging his head, no longer as arrogant as before.

At this moment, he was like a defeated rooster.

There is no fighting spirit at all.

There was a middle-aged man sitting in the hall.

His hair is gray, but his eyes are full of energy and energy.

Judging from the look on his face, he was even a little kind.

The middle-aged man is burly, and it can be seen that he was probably a military commander in his youth.

Even though he has been away from the battlefield for many years, he still has an aura that makes people afraid to look directly at him.

This middle-aged man is Zhou Qin, the captain of Chaoyang County.

He is also Zhou Zhongzheng’s biological father.

At this moment, he was taking a sip of tea.

He slowly put down the tea cup and then glanced at Zhou Zhongzheng down the hall, "Zhongzheng, do you know what happened outside?"

"I know." Zhou Zhongzheng said in a deep voice.

"You let me down!"

Zhou Qin shook his head gently, his eyes a little disappointed.

"Dad, I..."

Zhou Zhongzheng opened his mouth, but for a moment he didn't know how to refute.

At this point, he couldn't refute it.

This time, he did something very stupid.

In order to vent his selfish desires, he did something so stupid that it couldn't be any more stupid...

Zhou Zhongzheng, who had woken up at this moment, wished he could slap himself twice.

"Your Excellency, you already know about this!"

Zhou Qin squinted his eyes slightly, looked at Zhou Zhongzheng, and said slowly: "You have caused big trouble for our Zhou family this time!"

"That Lord Prefect has been keeping an eye on our Zhou family. It's a good idea for you to hand the handle to him this time. If nothing else, he will definitely not miss this great opportunity!"

Zhou Qin was a little disappointed.

The Zhou Zhongzheng in front of him was once his proudest son.

However, because of Ping'an County and his party, they became the laughing stock of the county and were unable to recover.

A small setback made him look like this. How could Zhou Qin not be disappointed?

Especially this time, he did such a thing, it was even more... extremely stupid!

"father……"

Zhou Zhongzheng felt guilty in his heart.

"I'll figure it out."

"How do you solve it?"

Zhou Qin said calmly: "If the prefect investigates the murder case on you, then I won't be able to protect you... Not only you, but our Zhou family will also be implicated by you. Do you think you have what ability to solve it now?" this problem?"

I'm stuck for words in the middle of the week.

Things have become like this, and they are no longer under his control.

How can he make amends?

If he had his way, he wouldn't have reached this point.

What makes him even more angry is that he caused such a big fuss.

But the culprit Li Beifeng, the initiator of all this, is still at large.

Thinking of this, Zhou Zhong was so angry that his teeth itched.

"Dad, this time, if it hadn't been for Zhou Qiuning... if it hadn't been for her, so many things wouldn't have happened!" Zhou Zhongzheng said through gritted teeth.

If Zhou Qiuning hadn't interfered, how could there have been so many things.

What on earth does she want to do?

Is she still from the Zhou family?

"Qiu Ning..."

Mentioning Qiu Ning, Zhou Qin shook his head slightly, with a flash of something in his eyes.

Then, he shook his head again: "Even without Qiu Ning, you... are quite stupid this time."

Zhou Zhongzheng was speechless.

"No matter what, Qiu Ning is your sister, your biological sister. This is a family relationship where blood is thicker than water... You should understand what I mean!" Zhou Qin spoke slowly.

Zhou Zhongzheng remained silent.

Of course he knew it.

If he didn't know this clearly, he and Zhou Qiuning would have fallen out with each other long ago.

"That's all..."

Zhou Qin waved his hand again: "This incident should be regarded as a lesson for you, so that you can learn a lesson well. In the future, you must not act so recklessly again. If you are not completely sure, don't do it casually... …”

He glanced at Li Beifeng: "I know you hate that young man named Li Beifeng, but if you can't kill him with one blow, it's best not to take action. Otherwise, all your previous efforts will be wasted. He won't do this to you next time. The opportunity..."

Zhou Zhongzheng was silent for a moment: "Dad, I know!"

"Also, during this period of time, you should not go out anymore and avoid the limelight for a while. I will handle this matter!"

Zhou Qin said.

"Dad, where is the prefect..." Zhou Zhongzheng was a little worried.

"Don't worry, I have a solution!"

Zhou Qin spoke calmly.

As the captain of Chaoyang County, in terms of official position, he is indeed under the new governor.

But after all, he has been in Chaoyang County for so many years and has extremely powerful influence. The Zhou family's connections and voice in official circles are no less than that of the prefect.

More importantly, as the captain of Chaoyang County, he now still controls the military power near Chaoyang County.

This is where his confidence lies.

Although the prefect found a handle this time, it was not a big deal to him.

Zhou Qin shook his head and looked back at Zhou Zhongzheng: "Zhongzheng, you have to remember. Chaoyang County still belongs to our Zhou family! No one except our Zhou family has any say, not even the prefect."

"Dad, you..."

Zhou Zhongzheng was slightly startled.

"Don't worry, there will be results soon!"

A sneer appeared on Zhou Qin's face: "Chaoyang County, which I have been running for so many years, cannot be taken away by anyone!"

"..."

Li Beifeng returned to the inn somewhat inexplicably.

Shen Qingning's sudden anger, Yun'er's eyes full of contempt, and her inexplicable words left Li Beifeng puzzled.

They are all...what's wrong?

What happened again?

Li Beifeng pondered for a long time, but he still couldn't figure out where he offended the master and servant.

I couldn't figure it out, so I was too lazy to think about it for the time being, so I came back first.

"Sir, are you back?!"

As soon as Li Beifeng stepped into the inn, the innkeeper and waiters came forward to greet him warmly.

"Sir, are you okay?"

"The people from the Yamen didn't bully you, right?"

It was so enthusiastic that Li Beifeng was not used to it.

"I'm fine, I'm fine, I'm fine, don't worry!"

Li Beifeng waved his hand.

"That's good!"

The innkeeper finally breathed a sigh of relief: "Mr. Li, you really scared us. Why did you disappear all of a sudden, and you were involved in a murder case with the Yamen... As long as it's okay, it's okay!"

The shopkeeper breathed a sigh of relief, and was obviously very happy.

After being keenly aware of the unusual relationship between Li Beifeng and the lady, the shopkeeper had a completely different attitude towards Li Beifeng.

The look in Li Beifeng's eyes and the way he treated Li Beifeng made him think that Li Beifeng was his future uncle.

This made Li Beifeng a little unaccustomed and worried... If the shopkeeper knew that he was not with his lady in the future, would he give an order to call out several masters hidden near the inn and chop Li Beifeng to death with a knife? street?

"..."

"Master!"

After chatting with the shopkeeper, Li Beifeng was about to go back to his room when he was suddenly stopped by the shopkeeper.

"Sir, I have one more thing to tell you."

"Um?"

"Sir, do you still remember that girl? The girl who came to our inn looking for you that day?"

The shopkeeper mentioned the girl that day with a serious look on his face: "That girl... is a bit extraordinary."

"oh?"

Li Beifeng naturally knew that the shopkeeper was referring to Zhou Qiuning, but he still asked: "Why is it not simple?"

"She is the second young lady of the Zhou family in our county. Now the Zhou family is fighting fiercely with our prefect in the county. Master, if you are not familiar with her, it is best to have less contact with her. She is approaching at this time. Young Master, I'm afraid you have an ulterior motive." The shopkeeper guessed.

Li Beifeng agreed: "What you said does make sense!"

Zhou Qiuning must have some ulterior secret when approaching him.

"Also, I sent people to investigate her before and found that she still has many secrets..."

The shopkeeper's eyes narrowed slightly and he said: "This second young lady of the Zhou family was sent out when she was young. It is said that she studied martial arts with an expert. However, according to my investigation, this second young lady of the Zhou family was Miss, she comes from Jianghu..."

"Jianghu?" Li Beifeng was slightly startled: "How can you see it?"

"According to the report, she has been in frequent contact with some people in the Jianghu recently. Moreover, the Zhou family is also closely related to some sects in the Jianghu. Therefore, I suspect that she may be a disciple of a certain sect in the Jianghu. Not necessarily. At the same time, the second young lady of the Zhou family is extremely smart and has good skills. She is hard to guard against and is a difficult target..."

The shopkeeper expressed his worries: "Sir, the Jianghu Conference in the county is about to be held. In fact, it is not safe in the county. Please be careful. If there is no need, try to stay away from the second young lady of the Zhou family. , so as not to get into trouble..."

In fact, the shopkeeper didn't say anything yet.

The second young lady of the Zhou family is unparalleled in beauty, and her appearance is no worse than that of my own young lady.

What if the young master gets along with him too much and something happens... What about my young lady?

The shopkeeper has the obligation to protect the happiness of his own lady.

"..."

"Thank you, shopkeeper, for the reminder."

Li Beifeng smiled and said: "Actually, I think exactly the same as you, the shopkeeper. That girl is indeed not simple."

"Then I'll be relieved!" The shopkeeper breathed a sigh of relief.

It seems that Mr. Li still knows what he is doing.

"By the way, I also have one more thing I want to ask you..."

Li Beifeng seemed to have thought of something: "Do you know what happened to your lady... today?"

The shopkeeper was confused: "What's wrong, Miss? What happened?"

"Nothing, I'm just asking..."
