Lin Rui entered the main hall and immediately saw a muscular, beardless eunuch in his thirties sitting above.
He was only dressed in thin garments and was flushed with anger, berating those below him in a fierce voice.
Lin Rui thought this must be Eunuch Wang Zhenli from the Maritime Bureau of Jingang City, whom the County Magistrate had specifically mentioned before his assignment.
This person, despite holding a minor rank of the sixth grade, was a source of great headache for the Zhuang Mingyue family.
Standing beside him were sixteen fully armed guards, all glaring with fierce and malevolent expressions.
Beneath the platform were a group of county soldiers ordered to search the Maritime Bureau of Jingang City; several squads were present along with Qu Zhang.
Though they seemed to be confronting the guards, they all bowed their heads, reprimanded like grandsons by the eunuch.
