Chapter 1022 Ji Pei's Concerns

"Yes, sir!"

Sun Liang had never had any doubts about Wu Fan's orders, and he had completed them without compromise.

"Let Tang San come back immediately and tell me all the news about the surrounding rebels." Wu Fan continued to say to Sun Liang.

As the saying goes, knowing yourself but not knowing the enemy, you can fight a hundred battles without danger. Before the battle, Wu Fan must understand the detailed information of all the rebels around Qingyuan County. Only in this way can he better deal with the rebels.

The old emperor only gave him one month, which was neither long nor short. Wu Fan did not dare to waste time. He had been in Yanfeng Country since he came to the game world. He did not want to be deprived of all his things in Yanfeng Country. Therefore, in order to keep his position, he must eliminate the rebels around Qingyuan County, and within one month.

"Yes, sir, I will send someone to inform Tang San immediately." Sun Liang responded immediately.

After Sun Liang took the order and went, Wu Fan had time to think about the previous things.

Obviously, saving Zhao Qi was the key. Zhao Qi was not only a princess, but also the most beloved princess of the old emperor. When the old emperor learned that she was in trouble and was ambushed, he must have been very worried. This also shows that the old emperor has always known Zhao Qi's whereabouts.

And it is precisely because of the old emperor's attention to Zhao Qi that Wu Fan's position in the old emperor's heart will be higher and more important after saving Zhao Qi, which makes the old emperor promote him as the county magistrate of Qingyuan County.

Wu Fan doesn't care too much about the position of a county magistrate. After all, he is the commander-in-chief of the three armies in Nanping Kingdom. Except for the female emperor who was promoted by him, he doesn't have to listen to anyone's orders in Nanping Kingdom. He can be said to be an existence under one person and above ten thousand people. Therefore, a county magistrate is not an important position for Wu Fan.

However, the position of the county magistrate of Qingyuan County is different. After all, Wu Fan has always regarded the Hermit Village and Qingyuan County as his base camp, and he has always wanted to manage these two places well.

In the Hermit Village, he was the militia captain, and the old villagers trusted him, so he could do anything in the Hermit Village.

But Qingyuan County was different. After all, it was bigger and had more power. If he wanted to completely control Qingyuan County, he had to have a title. Before, he had been suffering from this title, and even thought of borrowing the name of Princess Zhao Qi, but that was not legitimate after all, and it was not a long-term solution.

But now that the old emperor appointed him as the county magistrate of Qingyuan County, it was different. He became the parent official of Qingyuan County. All the affairs of Qingyuan County were under his management. Others had no right to say anything, and he, as a county magistrate, had more power than the average county magistrate.

The general county magistrate can only manage political affairs. They have no right to manage the military affairs in the county, but Wu Fan is different. In the imperial edict, it is clearly mentioned that Wu Fan can be in charge of the army in Qingyuan County and the army in all the surrounding towns. This means that Wu Fan can take charge of both military and political affairs in Qingyuan County. He is the real boss here, and all things are under his management.

In other words, he is the local emperor of Qingyuan County!

This power is great!

And Wu Fan obviously does not want to waste such an opportunity, so he must eliminate all the rebels around Qingyuan County within a month. Only in this way can he keep his position. Only by keeping his position can Wu Fan carry out subsequent transformation of Qingyuan County and make Qingyuan County his real base camp.

Therefore, Wu Fan is very serious about what the old emperor told him this time.

"Come on, go to the prison!" Wu Fan said, and then took his servants to the prison. Wu Fan did not forget that there was an important person in the prison.

When Wu Fan went to the prison in Qingyuan County, the news that Dai Liang wanted to assassinate the princess, but was discovered and killed by Wu Fan, began to spread in Qingyuan County.

"Asshole! Trash! I shouldn't have given this matter to him!" Ji Pei said angrily, slapping the small table in Ji's mansion.

After the Third Prince revealed in the lines that he wanted to assassinate the Seventh Princess, Ji Pei attached great importance to this matter. He had been a university scholar for many years and was very good at playing word games. He knew very well that the Third Prince meant that he wanted him to kill the Seventh Princess. If he succeeded, he would become the Third Prince's staff. If he failed, then he and the Third Prince would have nothing to do with each other, and he would have to bear all the consequences of this matter.

After all, the Third Prince did not explicitly propose to assassinate the Seventh Princess in the letter.

It was precisely because of this that Ji Pei attached great importance to this matter. However, although he had a good status and connections in Qingyuan County, it was not an easy task for him to send assassins to assassinate a princess.

Fortunately, he had a cheap son-in-law, so he handed the matter over to his cheap son-in-law.

Ji Pei thought that his cheap son-in-law controlled the army of Qingyuan County and was also very skilled. It would not be a big deal for him to assassinate the Seventh Princess, but he never thought that he would fail, and he failed more than once. This time he was directly killed by Wu Fan and Zhao Qi.

Ji Pei didn't know whether Wu Fan and Zhao Qi asked Dai Liang anything before they killed him. He was very worried that Dai Liang would give him up before he died. If that was the case, then he would not be able to escape death. After all, assassinating a princess is a capital crime no matter when.

So, after hearing that Dai Liang failed to assassinate the Seventh Princess, Ji Pei was always worried that his affairs would be exposed.

Fortunately, after knowing that Wu Fan and Zhao Qi had returned, no one was sent to arrest him, and Ji Pei's heart was finally settled.

However, this matter is a hidden danger after all. After all, Ji Pei didn't know whether Dai Liang said anything before he died. If Wu Fan deliberately controlled it, he didn't know the situation.

Therefore, the best way is to get rid of Wu Fan and Zhao Qi as soon as possible. However, he is just a civil servant after all, and his son and grandson were caught by Wu Fan. Therefore, there are few people who can be trusted in the entire Ji Mansion.

Before Ji Pei found someone trustworthy in the mansion, the news that Wu Fan was appointed as the county magistrate of Qingyuan County came out.

When he heard the news, Ji Pei was stunned at first, and then he had only one thought in his mind.

"It's over!"

It's really over!
