Wang Wei panicked when he saw his men being killed one after another, especially the twenty over runners he brought. Half of them had died in a short period of time, leaving only a dozen of them alive. The remaining people were so frightened that they did not dare to charge forward, let alone approach Du Qi. Instead, they kept retreating in fear.
Wang Wei asked, "Young man, who are you?"
Du Qi replied, "You don't need to know who I am. Mordor, don't hesitate. Kill them all. Anyone who resists will be killed without mercy. As the county magistrate of Lantian County, you disregard the lives of the people. You deserve to die! "
Mordor heard the order and went straight forward. He killed the runners who were fleeing and arrived in front of Wang Wei in the blink of an eye. Wang Wei saw Mordor coming and was scared out of his wits. He knelt on the ground and begged for mercy, "Don't kill me!"
He did not want to die, so he could only beg for mercy.
Mordor's blade fell and placed in front of Wang Wei. In this situation, he only needed to move the blade forward by three inches to cut Wang Wei's neck.
Wang Wei's face was full of fear. He hurriedly said, "Don't kill me, don't kill me!"
Mordor turned to look at Du Qi.
He waited for Du Qi's decision.
Du Qi said, "What's the use of keeping such a person alive? Kill him!"
"No!"
Wang Wei yelled.
However, the moment his voice was heard, Mordor had already received Du Qi's order and slashed down. With a slash, the blade cut Wang Wei's neck. Blood splattered and Wang Wei's body fell to the ground.
At this moment, Wang Wei's eyes still had some life and some consciousness in his mind.
He opened his mouth to speak, but endless pain invaded his mind, making Wang Wei very uncomfortable. However, this discomfort did not last long. In the next moment, his head tilted and he lost consciousness and fell to the ground. This scene frightened the surrounding citizens. Many of them immediately scattered like birds and beasts, not daring to stay any longer.
Many people shouted that someone had been killed.
After all, Wang Wei was the County Magistrate of Lantian County. Now that the County Magistrate had been killed, it was a huge disaster for the entire Lantian County. It was as if the sky had collapsed.
After the commoners left, the scene became even more chaotic. Especially Wu Weiliang, Wu Yuanshuang, and Wu Huaiyun. They were extremely shocked, because in their opinion, Du Qi actually killed someone. It was simply like piercing through the sky.
Wu Weiliang's eyes lit up as he gritted his teeth and said, "Brat, you're in big trouble. This is Mr. Xia. You dare to kill an official of Mr. Xia's Lantian County. You can't bear the consequences. Xia Xia's government will definitely hunt you down. You can't escape. "
Wu Yuanshuang said, "Brat, you can't escape."
At this moment, Wu Weiliang, Wu Yuanshuang, and Wu Huaiyun were inexplicably excited. Because Du Qi had killed someone in Lantian County, it was equivalent to making an enemy out of Xia Xia. He would be hunted down by Xia Xia.
Wu Shi panicked and said, "Big brother, what should we do? You killed the Lantian County Magistrate, you'll definitely be wanted by the government. When the army comes, you won't be able to escape. Big brother, just run. Don't worry about us, quickly leave Lantian County. "
Du Qi smiled and said, "Don't panic, there's no need to worry."
He glanced at Wu Weiliang and the others and ordered, "Shangguan Yi, inform all the county officials to gather here."
"Yes!"
Shangguan Yi immediately made the arrangements.
The bad people around quickly went to pass the order. Not long after, all the officials of Lantian County, and even all the soldiers of Lantian County, gathered at Du Qi's place. When they saw Du Qi, they all bowed and said, "Greetings, Your Majesty!"
Hundreds of people's shouts echoed in the air.
At this moment, the onlookers were stunned.
Wu Weiliang, Wu Yuanshuang, and Wu Huaiyun were stunned. They were gloating just now. At this moment, their faces were filled with embarrassment and fear.
The Emperor of Xia Xia!
Why would the Emperor of Xia Xia Du Qi appear in Lantian County? It was really unbelievable. Especially when they encountered the Emperor of Xia Xia. Their luck was really bad. Madam Yang and her three daughters were also shocked.
Their family came to Lantian County alone. They originally wanted to escape, but they didn't expect to meet the Emperor of Xia Xia. Madam Wu was originally standing behind Du Qi, but her mentality was quite calm. At this moment, Madam Wu's mentality also collapsed. Her face was filled with awe, and she even felt a little helpless and didn't know what to do.
Du Qi looked at the officials of Lantian County who rushed over and temporarily ignored them. Instead, he looked at Shangguan Yi and ordered Shangguan Yi to call the person in charge of the bad people of Lantian County. He asked about the general situation of Lantian County, and asked which official was the most honest and capable.
In the end, the answer was that Yang Chen, the secretary of Lantian County, was the most capable.
Du Qi called Yang Chen out and ordered: "Yang Chen, you will temporarily be the County Magistrate of Lantian County. Before, when Wang Wei was in charge of Lantian County, there were many unreasonable areas. You will be in charge of Lantian County and set things right. Can you do it? "
Yang Chen was excited and immediately said: "Your Majesty, please don't worry. I will take care of everything in Lantian County. If I can't do it, I am willing to be executed by Your Majesty. "
Du Qi waved his hand and said: "Go. Bring the officials back and do your job well."
"I will take my leave."
Yang Chen bowed and led the officials of the County Magistrate away. Now, the commoners started to gather again. Because Du Qi's identity was exposed, many people spread the news. The commoners who were hiding in the dark came out again, looking like they were gossiping.
Du Qi's gaze fell on Wu Weiliang and said: "Wu Weiliang, how do you think I should deal with you three brothers? Especially since you are in Jingzhou, people of the Tang dynasty, but now you have come to Xia Xia. "
Wu Weiliang was afraid and immediately said: "Your Majesty, Wu Weiliang knows he was wrong. Please forgive us brothers. We were wrong. We promise that we will not disturb the Yang family in the future and we will leave immediately. "
Wu Yuanshuang and Wu Huaiyun also agreed.
Even though the three of them had hatred for Du Qi in their hearts, they were even more terrified. They were afraid that Du Qi would kill them. After all, they could not afford to provoke Du Qi. After all, this was Du Qi's territory.
Going against Du Qi was courting death.
Du Qi shook his head after hearing this. Wu Shiqiang was a good person and he was capable. When Li Yuan was the Emperor, Du Qi had seen Wu Shiqiang in the court. Later, when Wu Shiqiang was sent to Jingzhou to be the Provincial Governor, Du Qi had never seen him again.
Unfortunately, although Wu Shiqiang was capable, his sons were cowards. They were all hedonistic sons and had no ability at all. Even the disciples of the Wu family only knew how to fight among themselves and did not have the ability to deal with things.
Du Qi turned to Wu Shi and smiled: "Little girl, how do you plan to deal with them? You can deal with them however you want. "
Wu Shi hesitated.
If she hated the Wu brothers and the Wu family, Wu Shi would definitely hate them. In her heart, she wanted the Wu family to die. But when Du Qi put their lives in her hands and let her deal with them, she hesitated.
After all, he was her father's son.
Wu Yuanshuang and the others had been targeting them, but her father doted on the four of them very much. From the beginning to the end, he never mistreated them.
Before Wu Shiqiang died of illness, he even gave Yang Shi a sum of money and asked her to keep it. Because Wu Shiqiang knew that once he died, Yang Shi would be targeted by the Wu family. Especially since Yang Shi did not have a son, it would be difficult for her to survive.
