Chapter 133: I run by myself?

Half a month later, the people of Qinglin County and several surrounding affected counties basically settled down with the help of the court. At this moment, Qin Xiao received an order from the emperor to investigate the corruption in Qingmei County.

The escort team that came with Qinghe County had already gone back. Jiang Ning wanted to go back, but was always stopped by Qin Xiao.

After finally recovering from the disaster, Jiang Ning was about to pack up and go home, but was stopped by Qin Xiao again.

Jiang Ning, who was eager to think about his family, raised his fist in anger: "I am not your personal girl, I didn't sell my body to you. I had enough to protect you when the disaster was destroyed before. Now that the disaster was over, I want to go home. If you dare to stop me again, I will break your hands and feet!"

Qin Xiao told Jiang Ning that he had received an order from the magistrate Cha Qingmei: "Don't you want to see their fate with your own eyes? Don't you want to know how much money he embezzled to pay you 10,000 taels calmly? The most important thing is that you saved me so many times during this period, and I have not yet rewarded the silver. Don't you want silver anymore?"

Jiang Ning: "Yes, but aren't you out of money now? Just send someone to give me money after you return to the capital, unless you want to pay a loss!"

Qin Xiao: "I will definitely not be able to pay back the debt, but the premise for me to pay it back is that I am still alive. As my creditor, should you protect my safety before I give it to you?"

Jiang Ning: “…”

It makes sense, but she can't refute it.

In the end, Jiang Ning agreed to stay with Qin Xiao to investigate the corruption of Qingmei County magistrate. First, she really wanted to know whether Qingmei County magistrate had corruption, how much was corruption, and what was the outcome? Second, Qin Xiao gave too much.

Jiang Ning wrote a letter to his parents telling them that he had something else to do and would go home late and let them not worry about him. Then he asked Qin Xiao to write an IOU to himself, in black and white to prevent Qin Xiao from losing his debts:

"Every time I save you once, you have to write me an IOU."

Qin Xiao nodded with a smile: "Okay."

Jiang Ning looked at Qin Xiao suspiciously: "You owe me so much money, you can still laugh?"

Don't want to betray the debt, right?

Qin Xiaoyi spoke honestly: "I am the prince of Zhennan Prince's Mansion after all, so I can still take out this amount of money."

Jiang Ning thought about it and made sense. Besides, Zhennan Prince’s Mansion should be the object that many people want to curry favor with. They probably don’t lack money, but is this considered corruption?

Thinking that King Zhennan is the younger brother of the current emperor and the whole country belongs to their family, Jiang Ning felt that this should not be considered corruption, but suddenly he was a little envious. What's wrong?

After collecting the IOU, Jiang Ning took the initiative to urge Qin Xiao to investigate the magistrate.

Qin Xiao looked at Jiang Ning and said, "I don't need to come forward in person in this kind of thing. As long as I give me an order, the people below will naturally go and investigate. From the moment you get the compensation from the magistrate, I have asked Xu Yuan to investigate it secretly."

Jiang Ning: “…”

No wonder Xu Yuan, as Qin Xiao’s personal bodyguard, was always elusive. It turned out that he had gone to investigate the case.

So many days have passed, have you found anything?

Qin Xiao: "It has been confirmed that the magistrate of Qingmei has committed corruption, and the amount is quite large, but there is still a critical evidence missing."

Jiang Ning: "What critical evidence?"

Qin Xiao: "Postbook."

Jiang Ning: "His account book must be at home, wouldn't it be enough to search directly?"

Qin Xiao shook his head: "How can we search without evidence? We have to tell the evidence when handling cases. We can't be so rude. Besides, if he didn't leave it at home and we didn't search it, how can we explain it then?"

Jiang Ning thought for a while and asked, "How did Xu Yuan confirm that the magistrate of Qingmei had committed corruption and the amount was quite large? Did he find a huge amount of property in his home?"

Qin Xiao nodded: "Yes."

Jiang Ning: "Then this is the evidence. Arrest him and let him explain where these huge amounts of property came from? If he can't explain clearly, wouldn't it prove that he is corrupt?"

Qin Xiao shook his head: "It is not enough to prove that he is corruption, and he has to tell him where the money comes from? If there is no definite evidence, how can he prove that what he said is true? And if there is someone behind him, but he takes all the charges on himself for some reason, then we can catch a small fish and let a big fish go."

Jiang Ning: "If he might ignore his life and death for the sake of that big fish, then he shouldn't have left any relevant evidence, right?"

Qin Xiao smiled: "You don't understand this. His willingness to take everything on himself when the matter is revealed does not mean that he will not keep his hands. This is human nature."

Jiang Ning: “…”

It's so complicated, she doesn't understand.

At the same time, the magistrate also received news that Qin Xiao was investigating him, but he was not panicked because he had already received someone's order to make Qin Xiao come and go.

In fact, this matter was not a difficult thing, but the difficulty was that a Jiang Ning appeared beside Qin Xiao.

This girl is born with divine power and ruthlessness. The assassins he sent out have been broken for a few times. Now it seems that he can only use his previous relationship and ask that person to come out.

He believed that Jiang Ning, who was extremely powerful, was no match for the real top assassin.

Besides, his target is not Jiang Ning, but Qin Xiao.

He didn't believe that Jiang Ning could stare at Qin Xiao in a very energetic manner for twelve hours a day.

Thinking of this, the magistrate sent his confidant to leave Qingmei County quietly one night...

Xu Yuan, who had been staring at the magistrate, immediately came back to report to Qin Xiao: "He seemed to have sent his confidant to invite someone out of the mountain. Should he intercept his confidant on the road?"

Qin Xiao thought for a moment and shook his head: "Just just stare at it, just look at what amazing connections he has?"

I really didn't expect that a small magistrate actually had direct contact with people in the capital. It seemed that he underestimated this seemingly ordinary magistrate Qingmei.

Xu Yuan responded and immediately turned to make arrangements.

Jiang Ning knew nothing about this. After three days of doing nothing, Jiang Ning asked Qin Xiao a little uncomfortable why there was no assassin?

When Qin Xiao was busy raising disasters before, a group of assassins came every few days.

Qin Xiao looked at Jiang Ning with a smile: "You are not used to it without an assassin? I guess the assassins should know that there is a super powerful master around me, so they don't dare to come."

Jiang Ning couldn't help but show a proud expression when he heard this: "If my strength is on the battlefield, it will definitely sweep away the troops."

Qin Xiao poured cold water on Jiang Ning: "Don't be too complacent. There are people outside of others and there are heavens outside of heaven. You are not a martial arts master, but you are just powerful. If you meet a top assassin, you are no match for it at all."

"I got the news that the magistrate sent someone to hire a very powerful helper. Next, I may meet a super powerful assassin. If you can't stand it, run away by yourself. Don't worry about me, pay attention to your safety, do you know?"

Jiang Ning was a little surprised to hear Qin Xiao’s words: “I’ll run by myself?”

Qin Xiao smiled: "Didn't you say that you are not my personal girl, and you have not signed a contract for me. Naturally, you can't work hard for me. If you really encounter danger, you should focus on protecting your own safety."
