"Mm …" The little girl's whole body was shaking. She nodded with all her might.

"Where's your master? Is he in County Yamen?" Sun Chun asked coldly.

The girl kept shaking her head.

"Then I'll let go of your mouth and tell me where you went. If you dare to call for help, this dagger won't let you off!" Sun Chun said, as a dagger slipped out from his sleeves.

The little girl nodded, her tears falling to the ground, already shaking like a sieve.

With one hand, Sun Chun flicked the sword sheath out, holding the dagger, he placed it on the little girl's neck, the other hand releasing her mouth.

"Master is in Hundred Flowers Hall." Just as she was about to turn and look at Sun Chun, she was hit unconscious by his palm the moment she finished speaking, and fell to the ground.

Sun Chun did not dare to delay any longer, and jumped onto the courtyard wall, flying quickly in the darkness, before landing outside the County Yamen Palace. He secretly looked around, and aside from the two lanterns hanging from the sky above the County Yamen entrance, the surroundings were completely silent.

At this time, Xia Li was sitting on a stone stool in front of a house. At the door, there was a lantern, and her figure stretched out on the ground. She had her arms crossed over her chest, and anxiously extended her neck to look at the County Yamen.

When a figure appeared at the mouth of the alley, Xia Li felt goosebumps all over his body. He immediately rushed to the front of the door and hid his entire body.

"Xia Li, where are you? Xia Li? " Sun Chun lowered his voice all the way, and entered the alley. He searched bit by bit, afraid that Xia Li would miss him, or that he would have already left.

"I'm here!" When Xia Li heard Sun Chun's voice, he immediately ran over and threw himself into Sun Chun's embrace.

Sun Chun hugged Xia Li, and continued to rub her small hands, blowing on her steam, driving away the coldness on her body.

"So that figure was you. You scared me to death." Xia Li patted his chest and took a deep breath.

"So even you are afraid of the dark." Sun Chun teased Xia Li. When he saw her raise her fist, he grabbed her and whispered.

"Let's go, I know where the county governor is now."

"Where is it?" Xia Li could not wait and asked.

"You'll know when you go with me." As Sun Chun spoke, he pulled Xia Li up and headed towards the most bustling place of the night in Jing'an County City.

The county magistrate's mansion was located in the golden district of Jing'an County City. After passing through two streets, they arrived at the biggest brothel in Jing'an County City, the Hundred Blossom House.

From far away, the flower tower was dotted with red lanterns, and the air was filled with the fragrance of alcohol, flowers, and powdered fat. Men and women walked in and out with arms wrapped around each other's shoulders.

Xia Li was still not used to the fragrance in the air. He frowned and looked at Sun Chun: "How do we find the county magistrate now? Otherwise, if we don't find him by then, the old procuress would have chased us out.

"Follow me." Sun Chun smiled mysteriously and placed a bamboo hat on Xia Li's head. Then, he covered his face and pulled Xia Li's hand as they entered the Hundred Flowers Hall.

The bawd, who was in the middle of entertaining guests, saw a man and woman wearing a mask and frowned slightly. A trace of doubt flashed across her eyes, but she still wore a smile on her face and waved her handkerchief as she went forward to welcome them.

"Gentlemen, this is the Hundred Blossom House. May I ask why the masked young master is bringing a lady here? Could it be that you do not fancy the girls from our Hundred Flowers Hall? "

While the old procuress was speaking, the few girls behind her had already surrounded Sun Chun and were pulling him along, wanting to leave.

Sun Chun was not interested in these girls from the start, so he turned his body and avoided the group of girls coming closer. He walked next to the old procuress and whispered into her ear.

The old procuress's expression panicked, she stared at Xia Li for a while, then waved her right hand, following along a little girl.

"You, bring this lady and young master to the backyard and don't reveal anything. If you reveal any of this, I'll skin you alive!"

The old procuress said angrily, causing the little girl to tremble. She immediately bowed her head and answered, "I don't dare, mother. I definitely don't dare!"

When the little girl brought Xia Li and Sun Chun away, a curious girl from the brothel came over and pulled the old procuress along and asked, "Mom, where did these two weirdos come from? Why did you bring them to the backyard?"

"What do you know? That's because our county magistrate's concubine brought someone to bring him home. She was dissatisfied with the county magistrate's decision to come here, but she didn't dare to reveal it to anyone. Truly wronged." The old procuress said with a look of disdain.

"How did you know she was the county magistrate's concubine?" The brothel girl clearly didn't believe him.

"Nonsense, the county magistrate came to Hundred Flowers Hall in secret tonight. Other than us, the only ones who know of this news are the people from his mansion!" How could it be fake! " The old procuress took the fan and beat the head of the girl from the brothel, teaching her a lesson.

"Mother is right, Qing Er understands." The brothel girl called Qing Er, did not dare to continue asking as she bitterly retreated to the side.

The little girl was probably really shocked. When she led Xia Li and his group to the backyard, she kept silent, twisted and turned all the way, and there wasn't even a trace of a star in the backyard. Finally, she arrived in front of a house.

"Who is it!" The man cursed in a low and angry voice.

When the little girl heard the curses in the house, she immediately turned around and ran out. Sun Chun dragged Xia Li and hid in the shadows.

"Old master, who are those people outside?" The girl's coquettish laughter could be heard.

"It's nothing, it's the sound of a mouse." The man opened the door a crack, looked left and right, just as he was about to close the door, Sun Chun seized the opportunity to rush up, and kicked open the door. The door was knocked open, and the man behind the door was knocked onto the ground.

Taking advantage of the chaos, she wanted to escape, but just as she reached the door, she tripped over Sun Chun. Xia Li seized the opportunity and took a blanket over the girl who was wearing only a undergarment and underpants, and pressed her onto the ground, allowing the woman to continue crying and not move.

"Who are you all? Do you know who I am?!" The man yelled in exasperation, causing the fat on his body to tremble. He looked like a greasy, middle-aged man.

"Isn't this the parent officer of County Yamen, Master An Ting An? She has always been the impression of a clean, honest, hardworking commoner in the eyes of the commoners. If she was found out by others, she would actually go into the Hundred Flowers Tower and meet a beautiful lady in private.

Sun Chun's voice was not loud, but it was loud enough to cause An Ting to feel fear in his heart.

"Hero, what are you trying to do?"

"I want you to let Day Rui go, and not find trouble with him!"

Sun Chun directly asked as he took the opportunity while An Ting was still in a daze to twist his wrist.

"This matter, you are really making things difficult for me!" It is indeed because the doctors within Xia Li's hospital did not do anything and delayed the patient's time! "

An Ting's mind became clearer, and instead of being afraid of death, he started to negotiate with Sun Chun and the others.

"Since you are in a difficult situation, I will slaughter you tonight. This way, the county will have one less greedy official."

Sun Chun said as he stabbed the dagger in his hand towards An Ting's throat.

"Please don't. I can spare him the death sentence, but I can't escape the punishment." An Ting stared fixedly at the dagger in Sun Chun's hand, his legs trembling uncontrollably.

"Brave man, have mercy. This is the limit of what I can do. Otherwise, if I let him go, my superior will not let me go. This case has already been reported." An Ting had lived in the government for a long time, so he naturally knew how to act.

"Do you really think I don't dare to kill you?" Sun Chun used a bit of strength on the dagger in his hand, causing a trace of blood to appear at Sun Chun's throat, the pain making him cry out loud.

"I'll do it!" I'll just let this person go! " An Ting could no longer bear the shock and pleaded loudly.

"I hope Lord An will keep his word." The Sun Chun in the darkness had covered his entire face, and did not let An Ting see through his disguise. He just did not know whether or not he would be found out in the future.

"If my lord were to reveal what happened tonight, your little life would be like this strand of hair in front of you." Sun Chun's hands were nimble, the dagger easily cut off a strand of hair by An Ting's ear, and with a dong sound, An Ting fainted on the ground.

"I feel that this An Ting is just a fence-sitter. What if he recognizes us in the future and finds an opportunity to take revenge on us?" Xia Li was still worried.

"If he recognizes us when the time comes, he must want to kill us." Sun Chun's face darkened.

"This?" Xia Li suddenly had a few vicious thoughts in her mind. She really wanted to get rid of that bastard County Head right now, but she knew that was unrealistic.

"Don't worry, he won't be able to hurt us. Let's see if he can release Day Rui in the next two days. Just wait, I have one more thing to do." Sun Chun said as he grabbed An Ting and brought him out.

When the sky brightened, Hundred Flowers Tower sank into silence. An Ting slowly woke up, and his entire body felt a chill. After taking a closer look, he realized that the clothes on his upper body had all disappeared, leaving only his pants.

He was thrown onto the roof of the Hundred Flowers Restaurant and when he looked down, his legs went soft on the spot. He cried out for help as he lay down on the roof, attracting the attention of the people around him.

Hundred Flowers Tower's Madam was woken up by someone, and when she walked out, she saw that it was County Head An Ting. She was shocked and immediately sent people to save An Ting.

However, the matter of County Head An Ting being left hanging on the roof of Hundred Flowers Hall to dry the entire night still spread throughout the entire Jing'an County in a short day. Although no one said anything on the surface, this matter had become the topic of discussion for the entire Jing'an County.

"This is too humiliating!" County Head An Ting angrily smashed the teacup in his hand onto the ground.

"Master, think about it, last night, the people from the Hundred Blossom House threatened you to let that Day Rui brat go, they must be related to the Xia Clan's hospital, do you want to call their people over, and confront them one by one. If it really is their people, you can capture them all." The Grand Master was by her side as he suggested.
