Chapter 740: Too Brazen!

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

“Yes, sir!”

The back of the house was massacred, and the county government in front naturally quickly noticed the commotion. Wei Zizhan’s brother was dressed in the County Magistrate’s uniform. He brought the officers back to the back of the house.

Who knew that these burly men weren’t afraid at all and even killed the officer and Wei Zizhan’s brother.

The officers were not skilled people. Wei Zizhan’s brother was naturally a weak scholar. Facing an expert, he did not have any strength to fight back, so he quickly lost his life.

These burly men had killed many people. After confirming that the Wei family members were all dead and that only Wei Zizhan, the Crown Prince, was left, they all left the back residence of the county government.

Shao Zhongxi and the others arrived right after the burly men left.

Shao Zhongxi’s expression turned extremely cold when he saw the bloodbath at the back of the county government. Other than Wei Zizhan’s corpse, the corpses of the rest of the Wei family members were here. Several officers had also died in the back of the county government.

A subordinate searched the back of the house and confirmed that there was indeed no Wei Zizhan’s corpse before he hurriedly reported, “The body isn’t found, the Crown Prince might still be alive!”

It was also at this moment that someone suddenly rushed in from the front.

“Your Highness!” the man shouted.

They were Shao Zhongxi’s men in Changyu.

“We know you’re here. We have something urgent to report. It’s very strange.” the man said anxiously. “A few burly men suddenly appeared on the streets of this county. They all had knives on their waists and were looking for something. Our people discovered them and followed them. They were asking the people on the streets if they had seen a seven or eight-year-old boy! They seem to be looking for the Crown Prince! Could it be that the Ji family still has people in Changyu? Isn’t this too brazen?”

It was obvious that this person still did not know that secret guard Ji Yi was awake and that Wei Zizhan was the Crown Prince.

When Shao Zhongxi heard this, he immediately reacted. “The Crown Prince must be on the street!” That was why those burly men didn’t hide at all. Once they found him, they would kill him immediately.

The bloodbath at the back of the county government must have been done by those big men.

The others were shocked.

“Go and capture those people. If you can’t capture them alive, kill them all.” As Shao Zhongxi strode out, he coldly ordered a group of people to capture the burly men.

“Yes, sir!” The group of people immediately went to capture the burly men.

“The rest of you, follow me to the streets to find His Highness the Crown Prince!” After Shao Zhongxi finished speaking, he coldly mounted the horse at the gate of the county government office.

It was as if his face was covered with a layer of frost.

“Yes, sir!” The others mounted their horses one after another. Those without horses quickly scattered around the county to look for the Crown Prince.

It just so happened that Qiye and the others had also finally reached the location. Seeing this situation, they also began to scatter in search of Wei Zizhan.

The few burly men were suddenly surrounded. They recognized that the person who surrounded them was the person who often followed Shao Zhongxi. They were immediately shocked.

They knew that Shao Zhongxi’s men were definitely in Changyu!

However, they had never expected that Shao Zhongxi’s men would discover them not long after they arrived in Heshi County. Moreover, there were so many of them. How many people did Shao Zhongxi put in Changyu?

Heshi County was just a small county in Changyu!

There were other counties as well, weren’t there?!

They had originally thought that it would be easy to find a child on the streets in the middle of winter. If they found him and cut him into eight pieces, they would have completed their mission and could go back to report. That was why they had been so brazen as to directly ask around. They felt that they would be able to kill Wei Zizhan very quickly..
