Chapter 172 - 167: Inspector He
He underestimated her. Governor Zhang glanced at Assistant General Qiao and couldn’t help but sigh again. He had thought this battle would be extremely tough. He was already prepared to charge into Yu Yang City if he couldn’t hold out, but unexpectedly, Zhao Hanzhang not only boosted morale but also kept a tight grip on Liu Jing, preventing him from making any impact in this battle.
Right, Governor Zhang remembered and quickly asked, "Third Lady, the army was shouting earlier that Liu Jing is dead. Is it true?"
Assistant General Qiao was just about to ask this question and immediately looked at Zhao Hanzhang.
Zhao Hanzhang replied, "I’m not sure. I shot an arrow into his heart, but his guards rescued him, and I didn’t see the body, so I can’t confirm he’s dead."
"Shot in the heart, he’s probably dead," a person beside them congratulated Governor Zhang and Zhao Hanzhang, "This is thanks to the efforts of both the governor and Miss Zhao."
Assistant General Qiao stepped aside and said, "Governor Zhang, Miss Zhao, please, the governor invites you."
So, the group followed Assistant General Qiao into the city, while the army remained outside.
Qiu Wu and Ji Ping, whose presence was uncertain, appeared. They looked around, saw that the army was staying outside and that most of the attendants of the assistant generals and prefectural governors were also left outside, so they left their subordinates as well and followed Zhao Hanzhang into the city.
Assistant General Qiao glanced at them. Zhao Hanzhang said indifferently, "They are my two guards. The elders at home were worried and ordered them to follow me at all times. If it’s inconvenient for the governor for them to enter, I’ll have them stay outside."
It wasn’t that the Inspector wouldn’t be inconvenienced, but even if he was, Assistant General Qiao wouldn’t dare to say it in front of so many people.
