Sign-in life from the county magistrate

Page 159

"My lord, there is something strange about this matter. People of the three clans have always lived in the mountains and rarely communicate with the outside world!"

"Why did this young patriarch of the Yike clan come to our Luxing City suddenly, and happened to disappear, and now he has not seen anyone alive or dead!"

"We don't know whether he has been killed, or even whether he has ever been to Luxing City, no one knows. My lord, could this be just an excuse made by the three clans?"

"No!" Shaking his head, the prefect Chen Zhicheng was very sure, he believed that these people would not dare.

"Although the three clans are strong, they will never dare to oppose the imperial court. If Luxing City is really broken and the imperial court is angered, then the imperial court will send troops in anger, and they will never be able to stop it!"

My lord, don't be so confident about some things.It's true that people fear the court, but they don't fear you!

You don't know what to do with yourself. I'm afraid people are sure that something happened to you and dare not report it, so they are unscrupulous.

If you don't light up your weapons, will you give in? If you don't give in, how can they swindle gold, silver and food from Luxing City.

You have a bookish spirit, but you don't have the courage to sacrifice your life for righteousness. Such a person will always use the excuse of taking care of the overall situation to convince himself.

At that time, you will give them whatever they want, and you will still look like you put the overall situation first.

You said, you are so easy to fool, people don't ask you who to look for!

Chapter 333 I'll Go With You

"My lord, now that the three clans are approaching the city, please make up your mind early!"

In the end, it was Lu Xingcheng's Fucheng who couldn't stand it anymore, so he spoke.If this continues, I'm afraid they will really attack the city.

"I know, I'm trying to find a way!"

It's not that they grow others' ambition to destroy their own prestige, but their Lu Xingcheng's strength is not enough for anyone to fight.

Not to mention the strength of these three clans, even the masters of the human family are enough to slaughter the masters of their Luxing City several times.

There are various ethnic groups in the mountains of the southern border, and many of them are powerful and cannot be messed with.

Nominally, this place is under the jurisdiction of the imperial court. In fact, only local officials like them understand how much control they have.

Take the Yike tribe that is making trouble now, in fact, their own strength can only be regarded as medium among the tribes in southern Xinjiang, but they have already been helpless.

It's not that he doesn't want to fight. When he first came here, he also thought about fighting hard, but he was taught to be a man at night.

From that moment on, he knew that he had to hang on, because they didn't have the capital to fight recklessly.Desperate to have capital, what do they have?

If his enthusiasm was useful, he would have done it long ago.

Do you have to fight to the death, and then Luxing City was breached, let them kill wantonly, and finally waited for the court to avenge them.

Then who should be blamed for the innocent slaughter of the people in this city, wouldn't they be wronged?

In the end, even if the imperial court sent troops, so what, in order to appease the various ethnic groups in the southern border, they must be raised high and put down gently.

To be an official here, one would either be drunk and dream about nothing, or be aggrieved like him.Otherwise, in the end, it's me who betrayed me!

"Hey!" I couldn't help but sighed in desolation. I spent more than ten years here, trying to maintain a peaceful scene, until the end, even my subordinates almost looked down on me.

It's hard work for him as the magistrate, how can he be as energetic as other classmates and friends.

You don't even look at it, other places are beaten every day, and only the place where the official is is still living and working in peace.

Is it easy for me to do this!

"My lord, my lord!"

At this moment, a burst of anxious shouts suddenly sounded outside, and then a figure in distress broke in.

"Lieutenant Han, you are also the commander of my Luxing City, how can you behave in such a panic? If you are like this, how can the soldiers have the courage to defend against the enemy?"

"My lord, something is wrong!"

He took a breath and didn't care about Chen Zhicheng's sarcasm. The visitor said in a panic, "The soldiers of the three clans have surrounded the four gates firmly, and now I have no way to enter and exit Luxing City!"

"My lord, they threatened to give us only one hour. If they can't find their young patriarch within one hour and punish the murderer severely, they will attack the city!"

"After the city is broken, the city will be massacred for three days, as an example to others!"

"This group of bastards!" He clenched his right hand and couldn't help but slammed it on the table. Chen Zhicheng took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down.

But although he forced himself to calm down, the others couldn't help but panic. It hadn't happened for many years that the army besieged the city.

I thought these people were just yelling, but they really surrounded Luxing City. Don't they know that they can't hide this matter.

These three clans are not the kind of big clans, and they don't have the confidence to challenge the imperial court.If it gets out, won't they be afraid?

"Why panic, I will go to their place in person. After so many years, I still have this bit of face!"

"My lord, think twice!"

My lord, how many faces do you have? You don't know how many faces you have. How have people ever put you in their eyes.

Every time I pass by, which one is not low-key, people still like to ignore it.

This time they are playing for real, I'm afraid they won't save face, and they might take you as a hostage again.Then you say, when the time comes, we will save or not.

"That's enough, if you have any good ideas, bring them up for me to hear?"

Looking at everyone coldly, Chen Zhicheng was very helpless, a group of pig teammates who only talk about talking, dragged him down for life.

As long as you are useful, I won't be so aggrieved.A big boat depends entirely on me to row the oars, so I have to be exhausted.

"These barbarians are short of money and food, no matter how big it is, it is nothing more than paying more money, you should immediately order the big households in the city to prepare!"

"And you, your family is considered well-off, and you all contribute a part, including this official!"

Speaking of this, Chen Zhicheng then said helplessly, "This test is not easy, I'm afraid everyone will bleed heavily!"

"My lord, everyone has not benefited much in the past few years. If we raise more money, I'm afraid..."

"Afraid of what? A little money makes you feel so distressed. Is money more important than life?"

"You guys eat your brains full of fat in your daily life. It's okay for me to turn a blind eye and close your eyes. Today I let you bleed a little. You look like this. Do you really want to watch this group of people come in?" ?”

"When they burn, kill and loot, you will know that the money should not be changed!"

At this moment, Chen Zhicheng really wanted to swear at all these people, they were all a bunch of shit.

I really thought it would be easy to deal with those people outside, but that was dancing on the tip of a knife.

Even if the young patriarch of the Yike clan really disappeared, it was only the Yike clan that was furious.The reason why the remaining two clans came to help was nothing more than profit.

And what I have to do is to divide and win over each of them, and lure people from the other two races to give in first with huge profits.

Then, with the strength of the two clans and Lu Xingcheng's own strength, plus a large amount of money, the Yike clan had no choice but to accept the generous conditions proposed by themselves.

It sounds easy, but every careless step will end in pieces, and you must have a good tongue.

You think it's easy, that's because it's not you who went, but the official himself!

Usually when you are making money, one dances more joyfully than the other, but now you are only asked to pay a little money, and a group of people start crying and saying no, what about your faces!

"Three clans, let me go with you!"

At this moment, Shen Yu's voice suddenly sounded, causing everyone in the hall to panic.There are only a few people here who know how to resist.

This kind of reaction made Shen Yu shake his head a little bit, with such courage, what would he use to fight against others.

Guaranteed to be the kind of slogans that are shouted loudly on weekdays, and the enemy will obediently open the city gate and raise the white flag when the enemy comes, rubbish!

"Who are you? How dare you appear here?"

Although Lu Xingcheng Captain Han panicked, as the leader of an army, he still forced himself to be tougher.

"My official, Shen Yu, was added as the inspector censor, and I happened to be passing by Luxing City today!"

"Shen Yu, could it be that Shen Yu?"

For a moment, a name appeared in everyone's mind, and everyone's eyes shone with brilliance.If it was him, everything would be much easier.

Chapter 334 It's Your Word

"Master Shen, do you really want to go there?"

"Why is Lord Chen afraid?"

At the gate of the city, Chen Zhicheng hesitated.

The people of the three clans are used to being tough, so they are not the kind of people who will sit down with you and reason.Each of them has a violent temper, the kind that draws a knife to kill someone if they disagree.

For the sake of the people in the city, the best way Chen Zhicheng thought of was to go there by himself.But when he really did it, he would still feel a little uneasy in his heart and couldn't help hesitating.

Under the threat of life, no one will be really calm, it's just whether it's worth it.

However, in the end Chen Zhicheng still took a deep breath and suppressed all the uneasiness in his heart.

"Don't be afraid, Mr. Shen is not afraid, what are you afraid of as a lower official!"

"That's good, don't worry, you'll be fine with my official here!"

"My lord, what if they still disagree in the end and insist on attacking the city?"

"Disagree? Hmph!" The icy murderous aura disappeared in a flash, and Chen Zhicheng beside him felt an extremely cold current rushing over him instantly.

Especially that terrifying aura, which seemed to cover the whole world, making him afraid to even breathe for a moment.

"Although there are tens of thousands of people, if I really want to kill them, they won't survive an hour!"

"This..." Although it sounded like a fantasy, Chen Zhicheng had also heard of the fear of top experts.The number of people has no meaning to them.

And it is obvious that Mr. Shen has come to this point at such a young age, not only because of his political achievements, but also because of his strength.

With this confidence, I'm still afraid of a fart!

Putting down his worries, Chen Zhicheng immediately became full of confidence, and then shouted, "Come on, open the city gate!"

As the city gate opened, the two walked out with great strides, and slowly disappeared at the gate of the city.

At this time, the patriarchs of the three clans were getting together and discussing what to do next.

Apparently, they didn't just do it on the spur of the moment to attack Luxing City.

"Patriarch, patriarch, the magistrate of Luxing City has left the city and wants to see the patriarch!"

"Oh? This kid still has some guts, is it just him?"

"It seems that there is a young man with him, and there is no one else besides him!"

"A young man?" Hearing this, the patriarchs of the three clans looked at each other in blank dismay. When did Chen Zhicheng have such courage?

"Wait!" At this time, one of them suddenly asked, "That is to say, he didn't take too many things?"

"This, it seems that he came empty-handed!"

"Empty hands? Hmph, this is not paying attention to us!"

When they heard that Chen Zhicheng came empty-handed, several people became a little unhappy.Even if you mean it, you can't come empty-handed.

Chen Zhicheng, you are getting more and more courageous. If you don't let you know that it hurts, you just remember to eat but not beat!

"Patriarch, shall we let him in or drive him back?"

"Let him in! My son disappeared in Luxing City for no reason, and I have only one heir. No matter what happens, this account must be settled!"

"Yes, they must pay the price, they must be compensated enough, if they refuse to pay, we will attack the city and go in and get it ourselves!"

"Yes, if we are not satisfied, we will attack the city!"

Wait a minute, I asked you to come to seek justice for my son, but you are good, just staring at the gold and silver compensation, do you still have any sympathy?

It was agreed that the three clans will advance and retreat together. The two of you are fucked up. You co-authored this thing to ask for money!

Soon, this person left in a hurry, and then Shen Yu and the others were brought up.

"Master Zhifu!" After seeing Chen Zhicheng, several people just cupped their hands and greeted perfunctorily.

"Master Zhifu, my son disappeared in Luxing City. I don't know if Lord Zhifu has found my son or caught the murderer?"

"This, not at all. Patriarch Nahe, I just found out about the disappearance of the young patriarch, so..."

"So what, that is to say, you didn't find it at all. Mr. Chen, you are so brave!"

While talking, the man slapped the table beside him vigorously, and the loud sound made Chen Zhicheng visibly tremble.However, Shen Yu held down his shoulder in time.

Feeling the power coming from behind, Chen Zhicheng stabilized his mind.

"Patriarch Nahe, right?"
