After Wang Chen left the city wall with the constable, Ye Xiangming, upon regaining consciousness, felt something was very wrong.
It wasn't that this County Magistrate had the power of foresight, but his rich life experiences reminded him that Yu Heqian's sudden summons for Wang Chen to go to the Government Office seemed suspicious.
Recalling the retreat condition proposed by the rogues, Ye Xiangming was terrified upon careful thought, so he rushed to the Government Office at the fastest speed possible.
No matter what schemes Yu Heqian had, working together with Wang Chen, there was no need for fear.
The greatest fear was Wang Chen being ambushed alone!
But what this County Magistrate could never have predicted was the scene he witnessed in the Government Office's main hall.
More than a dozen prominent figures of Qing'an County lay in pools of blood, their flowing blood gathered on the terrazzo floor, forming winding streams that were especially shocking.
