The magistrate of Liu County stared at the dagger, his eyes a little blurry.

It wasn't until he felt a chill on his ears that he came back to his senses.

When he looked down, he saw a few drops of red on the ground and a few strands of hair scattered.

"Ah~ it hurts!"

The magistrate of Liu County reacted and realized that the hair on the ground was his, and the coolness on the tip of his ear was not an illusion.

The man grimaced and curled up on the ground.

Wei Li laughed loudly, "It looks like a dog! Tell me, where is the food?"

There was indeed no grain in the government granary, and the taxes collected by the Liu County magistrate this year had not been deposited into the treasury.

They learned these from the local people, otherwise they would not have come directly to the county magistrate's house.

Wei Li knew all about these things, and he didn't know where the county magistrate had hidden the original grain in the storehouse.

"Burned! Gone!" The magistrate of Liu County gritted his teeth and said these words hatefully.

He felt pain in the tips of his ears and goose bumps appeared all over his body.

Wei Li was so angry that he laughed. For a moment, he looked somewhat similar to Wei Hongmian, even more similar than Bai Jingzhi.

He wiped the dagger on the face of the Liu County Magistrate, "You really won't tell me? Then this time it's here."

The tip of the dagger inched closer to the county magistrate's throat, and a strong fishy smell filled the air.

The magistrate of Liu County was so scared that he wet his pants.

Bai Jingzhi turned away, now somewhat suspicious, how did this man make money? Apart from being a bit cruel, he was not very smart.

Wei Li's dagger came closer. "Will you tell me or not?"

The magistrate of Liu County felt his scalp tingling and the pain in his throat reminded him that the man in front of him would really take action.

"I say!" The county magistrate could no longer bear it and had to compromise, "Let me change my clothes and I'll take you there!"

"Don't try to play tricks. Come on, I'll watch you change!" Wei Li carried the person away, and Wei Liu did not stop him.

Bai Jingzhi always felt that something was wrong, so he sent a message to Bai Zhao, "Dad, why don't you go and take a look? I always feel like there's something wrong."

"Wait for me, kid. I'll go with you." Bai Zhao nodded to his daughter and trotted after her.

"Is there nothing down there?" Wei Liu stretched his neck and asked casually.

"I don't know. You should ask Sister Yue'e. She went down and pulled the man up."

Bai Jingzhi came to Wei Liu with a smile, "Grandpa Liu, why don't you go down and take a look?"

Wei Liu lowered his eyes, "Forget it, if there is no, then there is no. Do you think you can make it happen? I was careless this time. I admit defeat!"

The atmosphere between the two was strange, and Zhou Yue'e also noticed something was wrong, "There's nothing down there, that fat guy is hiding down there."

Wei Liu just nodded, said nothing more, and walked to the back.

Changbo watched the three people from the side and always felt that something was wrong.

With the previous experience as a lesson, everyone went to the county magistrate's wife's courtyard together again this time.

Bai Jingzhi and Zhou Yue'e followed far behind, whispering to each other.

"Jingzhi, is Sixth Grandfather suspicious?"

"Just suspect it if you want. As long as he hasn't been caught, what can he know?"

Bai Jingzhi didn't take it seriously. No one would believe what happened in the space unless they saw it with their own eyes and experienced it.

It’s not a bad thing that Wei Liu almost died here this time.

It's just a good reminder for him to prevent him from being too arrogant and causing a bunch of people to lose their lives.

When they arrived at the yard, Wei Li happened to be carrying the magistrate of Liu County out.

The fat man changed into clean clothes, but his face was covered with many scars.

Bai Jingzhi did not speak directly, but sent a message to his father, "Dad, is this guy going to do something weird again?"

Bai Zhao gave her an affirmative look and sent her a message, "The county magistrate is not very capable, and the county magistrate's wife should be the powerful one. Okay, let's go back and find food first."

A group of people came out of the county magistrate's house, and there was only slight noise from carriages, horses and cattle.

Wei Liu whispered to everyone, "It's less than two hours until dawn, we have to move quickly. If anyone tries to stop us, we must fight quickly and decisively."

After suffering a loss at the hands of the county magistrate, Wei Liu became more cautious.

Others who were not of the same opinion also agreed with his point of view for the sake of a common goal.

The air was freezing cold, the streets were quiet, and no lights were on.

The doors of the neighbors near the county magistrate's house were also closed, and no one came out to check.

When the magistrate of Liu County passed by those houses, he stopped for a few seconds, his eyes full of murderous intent.

This scene happened to be seen by Bai Jingzhi.

"What are you thinking about in your little head?" Wei Li and she were sitting in the same ox cart. He had a different "reins" in his hand, and the other end was tied to the magistrate of Liu County.

"Nothing, just keep an eye on him later!"

When Bai Jingzhi saw the look in the fat county magistrate's eyes, he was certain that this man was evil to his core.

None of the neighbors came out, which led to him showing such a ferocious look.

The county magistrate's wife was not a good person either. She just didn't know what had just happened. Her father was so tight-lipped that he didn't reveal any information.

"You just—"

Wei Li whipped the fat county magistrate hard, a little angrily, "Hurry up, what are you dawdling for?"

Seeing this situation, Bai Jingzhi simply shut up and stopped talking.

The moon disappeared at some point, and a few solar lights illuminated them, allowing them to see the surrounding situation clearly.

The roads are getting narrower and the houses are getting more dilapidated.

The house I just passed by had a large and neatly maintained home.

When we got here, not only were the walls low, but the houses were also not arranged in order. We went in and out one after another, which made it inconvenient to travel quickly.

Without solar lights, these people would have banged their heads against the wall countless times.

The environment on both sides is completely different.

Bai Jingzhi looked at the person behind the magistrate of Liu County with admiration. The house where the grain was stored before was a scam.

This is the real thing.

This county magistrate is so bold. Is he working for Prince Li, or does he have another backer to deceive Prince Li?

I dare not make any conclusions about Baijing’s current situation.

There was some chaos in Dazhuang Dynasty.

When the emperor first ascended the throne, he was pretty good. He worked hard and made many reforms. Within a few years, he seemed like a completely different person.

Some of the officials below also had unclear attitudes, and she was also unsure of the position of this fat county magistrate.

After being whipped several times, the magistrate of Liu County no longer dared to have any evil thoughts and just led the way quietly.

The paths they took afterwards were all small and winding. If one was not familiar with the path, it would be very easy to get lost.

About ten minutes later, they stopped in front of a small courtyard.

This yard is no different from other yards, all of them are in a shabby state.

But it was tidy.

Seeing that the man was standing still, Wei Li got out of the car and kicked him, "What are you standing there for? Go and knock on the door!"

Chang Bo stood side by side with Wei Li at this time, "Be careful, there may be a scam, don't let this guy get away!"

The two have fought side by side for many years and know each other well. They have a plan as soon as their eyes meet.

Zhou Yue'e also quietly came to Bai Jingzhi's side and said, "Follow me closely, don't run around."
