The old couple and the little girl were also standing among them. The magistrate knew that the magistrate had given the little girl a bracelet and that she had caught the eye of the magistrate.

So he was very polite to her and even asked someone to help them repair their house.

When the people in the village saw that even the county magistrate was so polite to their grandparents, they no longer dared to bully them at will.

Many local gentlemen came to deliver things to their family, and the old couple and their granddaughter became famous in the county.

"Sister-in-law, we finally arrived at Guangxin Mansion." Li Xiaoning looked out from the curtain.

They finally arrived at Guangxin Mansion.

"Sir, should we stop at Guangxin Mansion first or continue on our way?" Rong Zhi rode to Li Shubai's carriage.

Li Shubai opened the carriage curtain and said, "Continue on your journey, don't delay any more."

"Yes." Rong Zhi responded and rode forward, "Let's continue on our way and go to Xinchang County first."

Everyone did not stop and continued on their way.

Several officials who were waiting on the sidelines saw County Lord Ronghua's carriage arriving. They were waiting to pay their respects, but unexpectedly they left without stopping.

Xinchang County

"Would you like a drink?"

"What are you drinking? I don't know who the new master is? Will he be the same as Master Yi..."

"What is this? I have already found out clearly. He is a teenager. The most important thing is that he is doing very well in Yongkang County, Guangyuan Prefecture."

"It's a pity that I'm so young, even Master Yi...hey..."

Several government officials in the county government gathered together to discuss.

"Do you think we, Mr. Yi, can get it?"

"Shang Cheng, don't you know? Master Yi's case is too big. Even the few detectives involved with him have not escaped. I heard... the Yang family has not been spared either."

Shang Cheng looked at the yamen servant who spoke, "Zhang Bao, do you think those of us who were excluded by them before are lucky?

Otherwise we would definitely be locked up too. "

"That's for sure. They think we are stupid and don't know how to please, but the few following us are good at flattering. Unfortunately, they are all in jail." Zhang Bao said with a mocking look on his face.

"Hey, I don't think highly of those who are officials anyway. They are all officials protecting each other. If I didn't really want to lose my job, I would definitely not stay here." Shang Cheng sighed.

Several people also became dejected.

"Don't think about it, let's go... have a drink, I'll treat you. They haven't come yet at this time. I guess they will be here tomorrow.

These officials don't know where they can relax, so we are left here to wait. After Zhang Bao finished speaking, he waved his hand, "Let's go, let's go..."

Several people looked at each other, nodded and walked away.

Shang Cheng closed the door and followed everyone away.

When Tianbao and his party arrived at the Xinchang County government office, they were faced with a locked door.

"No one?" Li Shubai asked.

Everyone got off the carriage and horseback one after another, and Rong Zhisu Lianyun stepped forward and pushed the door.

"Sir, the door is locked and there is no one inside." Su Xiaoyun said.

Qing Mo strode over, put his hands on the locked door, and pulled hard. The lock broke into two pieces and the door opened.

Everyone: stunned.

Except for Tianbao, everyone looked at Qing Mo with surprise. Qing Mo broke the lock directly?

This strength is too great.

"Qing Mo, what did you eat when you were growing up? You're so awesome." Li Jin asked with a smile.

Li Hua: Of course Boss Qing is extraordinary.

The civet flower meowed several times in Tianbao's arms.

"Let's go in and take a look first. Don't hang around here." Qian Xiaoxiao rubbed his shoulders. His back was sore from sitting in the carriage for a few days.

Tianbao held her arm and walked inside, "Sister-in-law, I'll ask Zhiya to give you some medicine later, and you can ask Lan'er to rub it for you."

Qian Xiaoxiao nodded repeatedly, "Tianbao still feels sorry for my sister-in-law."

Everyone entered the inner courtyard. The county government in Xinchang County was larger than that in Yongkang County, with several independent courtyards.

In addition to Qian Xiao, Li Jin, and Tianbao, they were also assigned a small yard. Everyone moved their luggage in first.

Master Zhang arranged to live in the front yard, and everyone finally arranged their luggage and accommodation. Li Jin sent people to buy some food first, and then went to find the cook and a few servants after everything was packed tomorrow.

Shang Cheng and Zhang Bao walked back chatting and laughing. When they saw that the gate of the county government office was ajar, they knew that the new county magistrate must have arrived.

Shang Cheng straightened his clothes, and everyone quickly packed up their appearance when they saw this.

"Go in?" one person asked.

"Go in." Shang Cheng replied.

Everyone walked in uneasily, Su Xiaoyun happened to come over, and he looked at a few people.

"Are you the government officials here?"

Several people nodded, "Yes, yes, yes..."

"Just...how many of you?" Su Xiaoyun asked.

"There are five more who haven't come. They will come tomorrow and they will go back." Shang Cheng answered quickly.

"You should go back first and come back to see the Lord tomorrow morning." Su Xiaoyun replied.

Several people looked at each other, wondering if he was threatening them. Should they leave or continue to stand here?

Could it be that they didn't go to greet the adults just now, so they were resented?

Su Xiaoyun waved his hand, "Let's all go. It's getting late and adults need to rest."

Seeing that Su Lianyun didn't want to talk anymore, Zhang Bao quickly nodded and left with Shang Cheng and others.

Su Xiaoyun returned to Li Shubai's yard.

"I'll ask them to come tomorrow morning."

Li Shubai nodded, "Okay." After saying that, he looked at him again, "What do you think of those people? Can they be used?"

Su Xiaoyun thought for a while and nodded, "It should be of use. I found out that the former magistrate of Xinchang County was investigated for corruption and has now been escorted to the capital.

The Yang family, who was close to him, was also affected. However, the Yang family had a deep foundation and only one young master fell in. The rest were fine. "

"It seems that Xinchang County is more troublesome than Yongkang County." Li Shubai knocked on the table.

Rong Zhi next to him nodded, "The three major squires in Xinchang County are difficult to deal with. The magistrate who took office was suppressed by them and had no privileges at all. He was controlled by others in everything he did.

That's why he coveted the disaster relief food and benefited from it, otherwise he would be suppressed by the three squires and would not be able to get ahead at all. "

"Hmph, a country squire can reach out so long, and the magistrate is so frustrated." Li Shubai really looked down on the previous magistrate.

Although the previous magistrate was pitiful, he had not achieved any success after being magistrate for several years, and he still relied on their looks to act, but he should not use the disaster relief food.

That means the beast is looking for death.

"Just a country squire...I want to see what they are capable of." Li Shubai sneered.

The next day

Shang Cheng and others came early in the morning and several people stood waiting in the yard.

Seeing some people busy cleaning up the yard, they quickly stepped forward to help.

The broom in Zhiya's hand was taken away by Shang Cheng, and the broom in Lulan's hand was taken by Zhang Bao. The two of them directed the remaining people to clean up the yard in a short time.

"You two girls, you didn't do this rough work."

"Yes, yes."

Zhiya looked at Lu Lan, who smiled softly, "Thank you." After that, she pulled Zhiya and left.
