Yan Ruoyu was also overjoyed.

When the police came, they would have a means of transportation and no longer have to walk this difficult mountain road.

They will also have a good place to live, take a hot bath, and have a good meal.

She was already thinking about what delicious food she would eat tonight, and she swallowed involuntarily.

She swallowed her saliva too loudly, which made Shi Xuan, who was passing by her, extremely disgusted.

Is this the so-called rich lady?My nose is worse than that of Dr. Yan. I can’t believe they are biological sisters.

The official who arrived was Shi Xuan and his party.

Shi Xuan and Yan Ruoli, led by the villagers, came to find Yan Xiu.

Before they even got close, they heard the sound of whips and Yan Xiu's screams.

The first person to hear it was Yan Ruoli. Now that her skills have grown, her hearing has become more sensitive.

She raised her hand to ask everyone to stop, and whispered to Shi Xuan that Yan Xiu and others were on the mountain ahead and seemed to have a conflict with the villagers.

Fearing that the villagers would be in danger, Yan Ruoli asked Shi Xuan to take a few people to ride over first and act according to the plan.

Shi Xuan quickly ordered a few people and rode over.

Yan Ruoli followed behind with the villagers and several other officials, and quietly came downstairs to listen to what was going on above.

Her ears were very good and she heard clearly what was happening above.

Shi Xuan admired Yan Ruoli very much.

When they first met, Yan Ruoli's martial arts was just getting started and was not much better than ordinary people.

It had only been more than three months, and her hearing was already stronger than her own.With such ear power, it is estimated that the internal strength is not bad.

This progress can be described as rapid. She is really a prodigy in martial arts.

Is there anything else in this world that she doesn’t understand?

When Shi Xuan saw Yan Xiu, he asked, "Who are you? Where are you from? Where are you going?"

The evil servant who led Shi Xuan over quickly introduced: "This is my master. He comes from the capital and is going to Nanzhou."

He was a former servant of the Prime Minister's Office and was used to being arrogant.In the past, when talking to a person of Shi Xuan's status, his nostrils would have turned upward.

But now the situation is beyond our control. After all, the old man has retired and returned to his hometown. This is Nanzhou's territory. He speaks a lot more politely, but his sense of superiority is still very obvious.

Shi Xuan nodded and said: "It turns out that he is from the capital. My name is Shi Xuan, and I am the messenger of the prefect's Yamen. I passed by here on business. What happened to him?"

he asked, pointing to the tied up villagers.

The villagers were beaten violently with whips, their bodies were covered in blood and their breath was dying.

Shi Xuan hates in his heart, these people are so cruel. They brought you to Nanzhou anyway, how could they do this?

This is to beat people to death.

Yan Xiu knew that it was time to reveal his identity.

He endured the pain, sat upright, and said: "My name is Yan Xiu. I am the prime minister of the capital, but I have retired and returned to my hometown. This man wanted to steal our things, but we caught him and we were about to send him to the official."

When Shi Xuan heard that he was the prime minister, he pretended to be shocked and frightened, and pretended to bow to him.

When he said that he had retired and returned to his hometown, he immediately stood up straight.

Yan Xiu was furious when he saw his reaction.

Since he is no longer the prime minister, should he be looked down upon?This person is really looking down on others.

Although he is no longer in the court, many of his friends and disciples are still in the court. Do you really think he has no power?

The villagers almost fainted from the pain. After hearing Yan Xiu's words, they hurriedly defended themselves.

"Brother Chaya, I'm not a thief. I didn't steal anything from him. He wronged me."

"Nonsense," Shi Xuan shouted deliberately, "Master Yan used to be the prime minister, how could he wrongly accuse you, an ordinary citizen?"

He turned his back and winked quietly at the villagers.

The villagers saw his eyes and didn't quite understand what he meant, but it didn't seem like he really didn't believe what he said.

Could it be that his brother has already found Divine Doctor Yan?Was he sent by Divine Doctor Yan?

The villagers felt excited and hurriedly lowered their heads, fearing that others would see the expression on his face and his shining eyes.

In the eyes of others, he looked downcast, as if he had resigned to his fate after being scolded by the official.

Yan Xiu was proud that such unscrupulous people dared to humiliate him, so it would be easier for him.

His resentment towards Shi Xuan also subsided a little.

This cadre is well aware of current affairs and knows who to trust.

Also, Fan Xuan's subordinates still need to have this bit of vision.

Seeing the whip wounds on Yan Xiu's face, Shi Xuan pretended to be concerned and asked: "Master Yan, are you injured? I have some medicine here, do you want it?"

Yan Xiu actually brought medicine, but he brought medicine to repel snakes, rats, insects and ants, and medicine for bruises, but he did not bring medicine to treat such open trauma.

His official authority was not diminished and he said: "It's very good to have some medicine for the injury. Thank you very much."

Shi Xuan took out a packet of medicine from his arms and handed it to Yan Xiu.

A servant of Yan Xiu took it and followed Yan Xiu's instructions and rewarded Shi Xuan five taels of silver.

Yan Xiu thought that he would need Shi Xuan to send him to the Nanzhou Magistrate's Yamen later, so it would be worthwhile to give him a little more money to win him over.

Shi Xuan took the silver and smiled happily.

Yan Xiu despised him in his heart. He was such an ignorant remote villager, and he could do this just for five taels of silver.

He took the medicine from the servant's hand and applied it to the whiplash on his face.

As soon as the medicine was applied, Yan Xiu couldn't help shouting and almost threw the medicine in his hand.

There was a burning pain in his face, as if he had been stabbed by countless steel needles.

Shi Xuan seemed to have just remembered, and said embarrassedly: "Master Yan, I'm so sorry. I forgot to tell you that this medicine will hurt when you apply it. We usually catch bad people and get injured often. We are used to it. do not think so."

Yan Xiu was secretly annoyed. If he had never met Shi Xuan before and met him purely by chance, he would really suspect that this person was deliberately trying to mess with him.

He endured the pain, did not cry out in pain, and applied the rest of the medicine patiently.

He gritted his teeth to bear the pain until they almost broke.

Shi Xuan held back his laughter and pretended to be sympathetic.

He looked at the villagers on the ground again and said: "Master Yan, this little thief must be taken back and asked to be heard by Master Fan. I think he was seriously injured. How about I put some medicine on him so that he can recover?" Insist on walking to the magistrate's office."

Yan Xiu saw that he mentioned Fan Xuan very smoothly, without any fear of being unfamiliar. He thought he was someone who often walked around in front of Fan Xuan, so he had a better attitude towards him.

"Okay, give him medicine."

He thought, this villager was really hateful, and giving him medicine seemed to be for his own good, but it was also making him suffer.

When this medicine was applied to the wound, it hurt more than being whipped, so it was treated as punishment.

The more Yan Xiu thought about it, the more angry he became. Not only did he not stop Shi Xuan, but he also wished that Shi Xuan would apply more wound medicine to the villagers and hurt him to death.

Shi Xuan got the permission, walked to the villager, knelt down, and applied medicine to his wound.

The wound medicine was applied to the villagers' wounds. It was refreshing and cool, and the villagers felt a sense of relief.

Shi Xuan's whispered instructions came to his ears: "Pretend to be in pain, don't reveal the truth."

The villagers understood and groaned, as if they were in pain, and then tried their best to endure the pain.

Yan Xiu sneered, feeling extremely happy.

How did he know that the medicine he used was specially prepared for him by Shi Xuan.
