The strongest devouring system in the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 347 Ignorance of good and evil

This infuriated Chen Er. He hadn't expected the county magistrate to be so ungrateful. After receiving his orders, Ma Dazhi led his men directly to the local county government office. However, while Chen Er was waiting at home...

Suddenly, an uninvited guest arrived outside. Chen Er was somewhat surprised when he saw this person, because this person actually looked somewhat similar to Zhao Beixing, as if they were brothers. This middle-aged man saw Chen Er.

He walked up with a smile, politely cupped his hands to Chen Er, and said, "You must be Lord Chen Er. Zhao Beixing is my elder brother. I've come here to tell you that you shouldn't interfere in Wang Dawei's affairs."

“Especially that local county magistrate, whose name is Zhang Tianya, to put it bluntly, is just a friend of mine. I hope you can give us some face.”

Upon hearing this man's words, Chen Er's brows furrowed immediately, and he glanced at the middle-aged man.

“You claim to be a relative of Zhao Beixing, so you should know what kind of person Zhao Beixing is. I believe that Lord Zhao Beixing would never collude with bad people, so I must take action against Magistrate Zhang Tianya.”

Upon hearing Chen Er's words, the middle-aged man sneered and suddenly kicked the table to the side, sending it flying.

"Chen Er, how dare you! You think you're something special just because you're a first-rank official? You should know that in the face of our powerful forces, you're less than trash. I'll ask you one last question: what exactly do you want?"

Chen Er immediately smiled. He never expected that the usually gentle Zhao Beixing would have such relatives. It was truly an eye-opener for Chen Er.

“I don’t want to waste any more words with you. Wang Tianyu, as a county magistrate, broke the law and even accepted bribes from Wang Dawei. I must get to the bottom of this case. No matter who is protecting him, I will not let anyone get away with it.”

Chen Er gritted his teeth and said, making the surrounding air seem to freeze. The middle-aged man immediately laughed, almost to the point of tears, and kept pointing his finger at Chen Er's nose.

"Chen Er, I think you're tired of living. Do you even know Wang Dawei's true identity? How dare you interfere in this matter? Let me tell you, if you pretend you know nothing, you still have a sliver of hope. Otherwise, you can just wait to die."

The middle-aged man turned to leave after speaking, but Chen Er stopped him: "You come and go as you please, what do you take this government office for? Is it your home? Let me tell you, even if Zhao Beixing is your relative, you dare to threaten me here today, so you can stay here too."

After Chen Er finished speaking, he slapped the middle-aged man across the cheek. The man staggered and fell to the ground with a thud, leaving clear five-finger marks on his cheek.

The man was stunned, not expecting Chen Er to be so disrespectful. He had thought that as long as he mentioned his elder brother's name, Chen Er would pretend he knew nothing. But now, the man was dumbfounded.

He even felt like he was being used. Indeed, this middle-aged man's name was Zhao Tianming, and he had come here to cause trouble for Chen Er because he had been misled by someone else. But he hadn't expected Chen Er to actually take it seriously.

Even if he brought up Zhao Beixing's name, it didn't seem to work in front of Chen Er. Chen Er kicked the man in the knee, and the middle-aged man knelt on the ground.

"Having a relative like you is really bad for Zhao Beixing. I wonder if this is your idea or Zhao Beixing's idea? Since you've come, then today I'll see which other important figure will show up."

After saying this, Chen Er turned to Liu Chengdong and said, "I told you to quickly inform Lord Zhao Beixing to come over. Today I'm going to investigate this matter and find out how many people are involved. I don't care whose faction it is, I'm going to eliminate them today."

Chen Er was truly furious. Although his official rank was not high, a new official always makes a big show of things, and this time he was going to give them a taste of their own medicine. Zhao Tianming was now truly frightened, never expecting that what seemed like a simple matter would become so complicated.

Moreover, Zhao Tianming was even more puzzled as to why Chen Er would do such a thing. In doing so, he would offend many people, not only Zhao Beixing, but also Sun Yunhe.

This shows that Chen Er's approach to life was wrong. Before long, footsteps could be heard outside, and Chen Er immediately smiled, it seemed that the person he was waiting for had arrived.

Sure enough, Chen Er saw Ma Dazhi leading a strange man in official robes into the room. This man was extremely ugly, with a toad-like face, and especially his triangular eyes that were narrowed into slits, which made Chen Er very unhappy.

Without Chen Er even asking, he knew that this middle-aged man must be the so-called county magistrate, Wang Tianyu. When the man saw Chen Er, he was a little stunned, probably because he didn't expect that Chen Er was so young and had already reached the first rank.

So the man was very unhappy, but he did a good job of putting on a good show by bowing to Chen Er.

"I said you must be Lord Chen Er. It's true that heroes have emerged from among the young since ancient times. We've all gotten so old, and we're still struggling to stay in the position of county magistrate."

Although the man spoke very politely, the coldness in his eyes was undisguised, which made Chen Er sneer. Chen Er had already secretly vowed that no matter who was protecting Wang Tianyu, he would definitely take him down.

However, what makes things difficult for Chen Er is that Zhao Tianming is also involved in this matter, causing trouble. After all, Zhao Tianming and Zhao Beixing are somewhat related, but Chen Er is determined not to give Zhao Tianming any face.

No matter who gets involved in this matter, Chen Er will handle it impartially. Chen Er glanced at the man with triangular eyes and waved his hand impatiently.

"Kneel down before me! Do you know why I summoned you here today? I've heard that you've been accepting bribes and helping others bully ordinary people. Is that true?"

"And you need to tell me clearly how much kickback Wang Dawei gave you to dare to do such a thing to ordinary people."

"Lord Chen Er, what exactly constitutes a kickback? I don't understand a word you're saying."
