“That’s right!” Constable Yu sneered.
“Lord Shao is quick.
He’s already appointed a new constable.
Heh!
Even if this storm blows over, will we still have a place here?”
Both constables were tinged with anger and jealousy.
Deputy Prefect Guan glanced at them and remarked, “Even with your presence, do you think you’re safe?
Lord Shao is promoting those around him.
I suspect he already harbors such intentions!
Heh!
Even if you remain unscathed, he might find a reason to push you aside, searching for fault in a straw!
Why not make some noise and challenge him?
That way, you can carve your own path.”
Stunned, the constables’ hearts sank.
Indeed!

Deputy Prefect Guan observed their reactions coldly, understanding their thoughts.
“Having a couple more constables is not a significant issue for us.
However, some individuals aren’t deserving of such positions.
Lord Shao is young, inexperienced as a local official, and ignorant!
He can act recklessly!
Even if it’s for the sake of the common people, we have a responsibility.
Don’t you agree?”
The constables seemed to grasp the point but remained somewhat uncertain.
“This! do you mean!”
Deputy Prefect Guan chuckled, dismissing their concerns with a wave of his hand.
“I’m not implying anything else.
I just believe that some people aren’t fit to be constables.
Lord Shao is young and lacks understanding.
Let him witness the reality.
Let him see that certain individuals can’t withstand scrutiny.
Why should they hold such positions?”
Constable Ding and Constable Yu exchanged glances, comprehending the message.
Deputy Prefect Guan added, “Procrastinating won’t serve us well.
Lord Shao, if you grasp this concept early on, the government office can return to normal sooner rather than later.
Don’t you think?”
They both nodded in agreement.
Constable Ding hesitated briefly.
“!Lord, is this! appropriate?”
“What could go wrong?” Deputy Prefect Guan chuckled.
“Regardless of what unfolds, it won’t implicate us, will it?”
Ding and Yu were enlightened and broke into smiles.
“Lord is absolutely right, hahaha!”
“Yes, whatever unfolds, we’re not involved!”
Leaving the backyard of the state government office, the two constables ventured off to strategize.
They decided to target Hang Xingshan first.
Hang Xingshan had been promoted by the previous Prefect.
If the former Prefect had remained in Anze Province for an extended period, Hang Xingshan would have inevitably become a constable.
This was common knowledge.
Therefore, Constable Ding and Constable Yu harbored a longstanding resentment toward Hang Xingshan.
Surprisingly, the new Prefect displayed a keen eye and promptly promoted Hang Xingshan.
Or perhaps, Hang Xingshan had harbored ill feelings towards them and clandestinely provided information to the Lord of the Prefect in exchange for these benefits.
With this perspective, the constables felt justified in teaching Hang Xingshan a lesson.
After all, who gave him the right to scheme against others behind their backs?
Was he truly worthy of holding the position of constable?
Constable Ding and Constable Yu had long desired to reprimand Hang Xingshan.
Despite their previous attempts to create difficulties for him, Hang Xingshan always managed to avoid getting caught in any suspicious activities.
Now, an opportunity had finally presented itself.
However, what the two constables did not anticipate was that, even when attacking him together, they would be unable to overpower Hang Xingshan.
