After I stopped being a lady from a rich family, I fought all over the capital

Chapter 237 Shameless old man

"I……"

Liu Tian grabbed the arm of the Prefect of Jingzhao, seemingly about to say something about a "shocking truth," when suddenly his gaze shifted to the side. Then, as if threatened, he screamed "Ahhh!"

Even the Prefect of Jingzhao, who had intended to help the man up, was nearly pushed to the ground by him.

Liu Tian shouted a few times, then his eyes rolled back and he fainted.

Looking in the direction he had just been looking, wasn't that Zhang Lao Er?
The Prefect of Jingzhao narrowed his eyes, but quickly regained his composure, put on a smiling face, and clasped his hands together. He looked very polite, but his words were firm and left no room for refusal: "I would like to trouble Second Master Zhang to accompany me to Jingzhao Prefecture."

"There are probably many things to discuss regarding Cui's death, and we need to ask Master Zhang about them!"

Zhang Lao Er panicked instantly, denying it as if he were trying to cover something up: "What does this have to do with me!"

He refused to go back with the Prefect of Jingzhao.

He then feigned anger and attempted to storm off.

How could the Prefect of Jingzhao let him escape? The local official coldly ordered, "Seize him!"

Before Zhang Lao Er could escape, the yamen runners of the Jingzhao Prefecture, along with the imperial guards who had received a signal from Gao Cheng, rushed forward and pinned him to the ground.

No one knows who it was, but they deliberately stuck out their foot and tripped Zhang Lao Er.

Zhang Lao Er, who had already realized that there was no hope of escaping and planned to portray himself as someone who was fearless of power and had a unique integrity, was caught off guard and fell to the ground.

Not only did he get a mouthful of mud, but the constables, whether intentionally or not, pounced on him and pinned him down.

Even when someone pressed down on him, Zhang Lao Er still had the energy to curse.

But when the second person, the third person, the fourth person...

When they all pressed forward, Zhang Lao Er felt as if he saw the Black and White Impermanence, the Ox-Head and Horse-Face, and his great-grandmother.

"Oh my god! You bunch of little brats! Get up right now!!"

The Prefect of Jingzhao rushed forward in a panic, shoving and pushing away those reckless brats. "You'll just run someone over!"

"This is an important witness!"

As he spoke, he reached out to check Zhang Lao Er's breathing. Only after confirming that the man was still alive did he breathe a sigh of relief.

"Thank goodness, I'm still alive."

The Prefect of Jingzhao looked at the old patriarch Zhang and said, "Your Excellency should not mind if I take your second son back for questioning."

Patriarch Zhang snorted coldly.

He said defiantly, "Do you think that if I say I mind, the Prefect of the Capital will pretend nothing happened, let my son off the hook, and stop making things difficult for him?"

As the old patriarch spoke, he suddenly felt even angrier.

He's not dead yet!
One by one, these people were busy in his house, smashing and trampling on his and the entire Zhang family's reputation!

This is simply unreasonable!

How unreasonable! !
The old patriarch glared angrily at the Prefect of Jingzhao, hoping that he would be more sensible and have a better understanding of the situation, and not make things too embarrassing for him.

The Prefect of Jingzhao chuckled: "Since the old lord minds, then I will have to find another way."

"It made the old man less bothered."

The old patriarch Zhang was slightly taken aback upon hearing this, not understanding what the Prefect of the Capital meant by his words.

Could it be that the Prefect of Jingzhao is afraid of him and intends to give him face, apologize to him properly, and then try to make amends?
The Prefect of Jingzhao had no idea what the man surnamed Zhang was thinking.

If I knew, I would definitely spit in his face.

Ah!
You shameless bastard.
