Chen Dongyue became excited after hearing Furong ask if she dared.

"Why don't you dare?" She stopped, thought for a moment, and then asked: "As the magistrate of Jining County, does it appear in the account books? Or does it appear in the roster?"

Furong pursed her lips and smiled, "What does a county magistrate mean? If you dare to look, you will naturally know."

"Song will come in soon. Just take him to get it. He can report the matter directly to His Highness Prince Kang."

Combined with what she had encountered on the road before, when the official in the government office caught a businessman pretending to be a bandit, Chen Dongyue felt that what happened in Liaozhou Mansion must have something to do with the government office.

So if we want to take care of this matter, we really can't let the government government take care of it, lest they cover up each other.

Fortunately, Song Ke could talk to King Kang directly, so he didn't have to worry too much about being unable to take care of this matter.

If we really talk about it seriously, if the evil hands in the government are not uncovered, it will slow down the progress of suppressing the bandits.

Therefore, Chen Dongyue felt that Song Ke should be quite interested in the account books and rosters that Furong mentioned.

After hearing what Chen Dongyue said, Furong still lazily replied "Hello".

Chen Dongyue, who didn't want to delay any more, finished speaking and walked out from the main entrance.

The Jining County Magistrate who was quarreling with Chang Wu at the door saw it and immediately pointed at Chen Dongyue and shouted: "Why can this person go in?! And as the magistrate of this county, he was actually blocked outside!!"

"I'm looking for a horse. I parked the horse at the entrance of Hongyue Tower just now." Chen Dongyue looked at the county magistrate and pouted, with a look of disgust on her face. "I don't know if it was because of someone." Mr. Turtle has stolen it, so of course we have to go in and look for it."

After saying that, she saw Chen Gangdan standing opposite Hongyue Tower and said "balulu~~~~" to her.

When the county magistrate heard that Chen Dongyue said that the horse had been stolen by Turtle Lord, he jumped in anger: "Who do you think is Turtle Lord?! Who! It is Turtle Lord!"

Chen Dongyue strode towards Chen Gangdan and said without looking back: "Whoever rode my horse just now is the turtle."

At this time, pedestrians on the road had already formed a circle to watch the excitement because the county magistrate had been making a lot of noise.

Hearing Chen Dongyue alluding to the county magistrate being Turtle King, the onlookers burst into laughter.

"Who is laughing?! Who!! Why are you laughing?!" The county magistrate was so angry that his head was smoking. He pointed at Chen Dongyue and shouted: "Come here, arrest her! Come here!!"

This Jining County, like most counties in Liaozhou, has been hit by disasters for many years and bandits are rampant, so the lives of ordinary people are very difficult.

But the county magistrate likes to pay attention to pomp and circumstance, and he never pays attention to disaster relief and bandit suppression.

The key point is that not only does he not provide disaster relief or suppress bandits, he also has to charge city fees for people to go to the city to do business.

There are many concubines in the house, but they are unwilling to do anything for the people.

So after listening to the county magistrate saying that Chen Dongyue was to be arrested, the melon-eating people blocked the road intentionally or unintentionally.

The aunt with a strong sense of justice urged Chen Dongyue, "Girl, hurry up, our county magistrate's men are just idiots. As long as you run fast, they won't be able to catch you."

Chen Dongyue thanked her aunts and quickly left the main entrance of Hongyue Building on Chen Gangdan.

When the county magistrate saw Chen Dongyue running away, he was so angry that he poked Chang Wu's face with his finger, "You, you, you!! You actually let her in, but not the county?!"

"She is looking for a horse," Chang Wu said with an innocent look on his face, "Did you also lose your horse? No way? Didn't you come here in a sedan?"

"Okay, okay," the county magistrate said, circling at the entrance of Hongyue Tower: "Just wait for me, the county police officer will be here soon!"

"Come to arrest me?" Chang Wu's face was filled with confusion, "But I'm not from the government office, I'm from the Beilin Army. If you want to arrest me, you can only do so with a military order from the Beilin Army."

"...Don't use the Northern Lin Army and the Southern Lin Army to suppress me. This county has the final say in Jining County!!" The county magistrate began to speak indiscriminately.

Chang Wu sneered, "I see, I thought... the whole world is not the royal land. The emperor should have the final say in Jining County."

"My lord, my lord!!!" The master finally collapsed, "Can you stop talking!"

Besides, they’re about to lose their heads! !

"Let's go," the county magistrate also felt that he had made a mistake. He didn't want to tangle with Chang Wu anymore, "let's go through the back door."

"It's useless," the master whispered in the ear of the county magistrate: "I sent someone to take a look just now, and there are people guarding the back. The people behind are said to be more garrulous than this."

The county magistrate, who was just about to turn around and go to the back door, turned around and looked at Chang Wu. He raised his hand out of breath, but he said "you, you, you"... and couldn't think of anything to say.

Chang Wu just blocked the door with a knife on his face expressionlessly and swallowed secretly.

His mouth was fragrant. He had never said so many words in his life. He was really thirsty to death! !

When Chen Dongyue rode her horse to the back door, she saw Kong Jie and one person guarding the back door.

When he saw Chen Dongyue coming, he greeted him enthusiastically, "Sister-in-law, how are things going ahead?! Do you need my help?"

"Come on, come on, make way." Chen Dongyue pulled Kong Jie away and knocked on the back door several times.

Then he turned around and said to Kong Jie: "I guess it will take half an hour. Just block the door."

As soon as they finished speaking, the three of them heard a creak and the door to the backyard opened.

Song Ke was holding two backpacks in both hands, with veins popping out on the back of his hands. He said through his teeth: "Take these."

Kong Jie wanted to pick him up, but Song Ke got out of the way.

"I'll do it." Chen Dongyue said and took the two backpacks tied together with hemp rope from Song Ke.

Then, she hung the basket on Chen Gangdan.

Because the basket on his back was hung too far forward, Chen Gangdan, who was unprepared, almost fell to his knees with his front legs.

Fortunately, Chen Dongyue had quick eyes and quick hands. She grabbed Chen Gangdan's sparse mane and held the horse.

Song Ke quickly worked hard and put the two backpacks on Chen Dongyue's exclusive saddle. Only then did Chen Gangdan stabilize his body.

It's a pity that this thing's originally sparse mane became even sparser after suffering this disaster...

The incident happened in the blink of an eye, and Kong Jie had no time to help him. He walked to the basket and said, "Is this fodder so heavy?!"

Then his hand reached for the backpack.

'Snapped! '

'Snapped! ! '

Two iron sand palms landed on the back of Kong Jie's hand at the same time.

Tears surged from Kong Jie's eyes.

He looked in disbelief at the back of his hand, which swollen instantly, then looked at Chen Dongyue and Song Ke, and then wailed loudly: "What's wrong? Why is this?!"

"Let's go," Song Ke ignored Kong Jie at all. He gave Chen Dongyue his token, "Go to the city gate station and wait for us. If someone gives you a hard time, just take the token and come out."

"Okay," Chen Dongyue nodded towards Song Ke, "Hurry and go to the front hall. Furong has something to explain to you."

After saying that, she said to Kong Jie with an apologetic look: "I'm sorry, it's a conditioned reflex. I'll buy you some pig's trotters when I go back."

After that, without waiting for Kong Jie to scream again, Chen Dongyue led Chen Gangdan away.

This horse cannot be ridden. If you ride it again, it will probably fall to its knees.

"Boss, please explain to me, what exactly are you..."

"You'll know when you get back. Watch the door, we'll be out soon."

'boom!'

The door to the backyard was closed again.

"What the hell is this!" Kong Jie looked at the back of his tall hands and wiped away his tears.

Be strong, he must be strong! !

.......

Half an hour later.

The door of Hongyue Tower is open.

Song Ke took the Hongyuelou girls who had changed into casual clothes and walked out of the door.

The Madam and the Turtle had all been awakened by the cold water. They were all gagged, tied up in a bunch, and escorted out of the Red Moon Tower.

When the county magistrate saw Song Ke, he came over with a hoarse voice, "Song Boss, what's the point of arresting people at will in our Jining County?"

"What's the truth?" Song Ke's face turned livid, "Didn't I tell you everything? This matter is related to the suppression of bandits, so we have to bring all the people back to Liaocheng for interrogation. What? Do you want to go together, the county magistrate?"

"...I, that's not what I meant," the county magistrate swallowed, and then asked tentatively: "Have you searched the Hongyue Building? Is there any evidence to prove that they are collaborating with bandits? "

"The county magistrate is still responsible for the search, right? Our evidence is not in the Hongyue Building," Song Ke said lightly: "We took the people away, but you should seal this building first, in case it is needed. Whatever the evidence is, we will come back to collect it.”

"Oh~~~" The county magistrate breathed a sigh of relief, "Well, that's all right. Someone, please seal up the Red Moon Tower for the county first!"

"Then, let's say goodbye first." After Song Ke finished speaking, he hugged the county magistrate.

But the county magistrate suddenly said politely: "It's getting late, how about we stay here for one night before leaving? This way we can let the county do what it takes to be a landlord."

"No need," Song Ke flatly refused, "It's important to take care of things, let's just say goodbye."

After saying that, without waiting for the magistrate to say anything more, he led the people towards the city gate.

The county magistrate looked at Song Ke and the others' retreating figures, called the master, and gave him some instructions in his ear.

"Sir, I'm afraid these people are not easy to deal with." Master whispered.

"What are you afraid of?" The county magistrate glared at him, "If the sky falls, there will be tall people to hold it up, so go and do it quickly."

"Yes." Master accepted the order, turned around and left.
