Ruan Yunsheng looked at Lu Zhizhou and pursed his lips and raised his eyebrows. This man really knew how to play both the good cop and the bad cop. "Since my husband has said so, I will reluctantly give you ten taels of silver. This is the first and last time. It can be regarded as a reward for the more than ten years you have raised me. Although my life was miserable, at least I was saved."

Ten taels? Ruan Jisheng was a little dissatisfied. He just opened his mouth but was interrupted by Ruan Yunsheng before he could say anything. "You can say it's too little, but then I won't give you a penny."

"Ten taels is ten taels. I won't come to you again after you give it to me."

It's better to have something than nothing. Now that they have married County Magistrate Cao, as long as his daughter works hard, she can ask for as much as she wants in the future.

"Remember not to bother me again. If you do it again, we will meet at the government office."

Ruan Yunsheng took out ten taels of silver and threw it to Ruan Jisheng.

Ruan Jinjin's eyes had been on Lu Zhizhou since the moment he came out. She had never seen such a handsome man. Every expression and every posture was so attractive. Then, seeing Ruan Yunsheng's face, she felt very resentful. If it weren't for the fact that Lu's family would have been confiscated, she would have been the one who married Lu Zhizhou, and she would have been the one who was cared for. All this was caused by Ruan Yunsheng.

Ruan Yunsheng saw the thoughts in Ruan Jinjin's eyes and glared at Lu Zhizhou. Lu Zhizhou looked at Ruan Yunsheng innocently. Ruan Jinjin's resentment became more obvious as she watched the interaction between the two.

"I've already given you the money, why don't you leave?"

Leave? If I leave, I won’t be able to see Lu Zhizhou anymore, "Sister..." Ruan Jinjin met Ruan Yunsheng's eyes and swallowed back the words that were about to come out of her mouth.

Seeing that he could not get any more benefits, Ruan Jisheng had no choice but to leave slowly. He had just taken two steps when Ruan Yunsheng called him, "Wait, take this medicine back and don't come to me again if something like this happens again. Take this incense back and fumigate your body to get rid of the odor."

When talking about removing the odor, Ruan Jinjin's face changed. Ruan Yunsheng looked at her with interest. When she showed Ruan Jinjin her private parts that day, she found that she had a serious gynecological disease. She must have worked a lot on the road of exile, and when she arrived in southern Xinjiang, she was still... Judging from Ruan Jinjin's injuries, County Magistrate Cao was not a good person either, and he had many special fetishes.

Ruan Jinjin didn't want to take it but then she remembered that she did have a smell. Ever since she had that thing, she always felt itchy and had a foul smell. Now she couldn't take a bath every day like she did when she was in the prime minister's mansion. She could smell the smell even when she was wearing clothes, which made her extremely uncomfortable.

After she took off her clothes, County Magistrate Cao smelled a scent and wanted to send her back. It was her persistence and the skills she had learned along the way that kept County Magistrate Cao.

After much hesitation, Ruan Jinjin took small steps with a blushing face and took the thing from Ruan Yunsheng's hand. She glanced at Ruan Yunsheng with resentment, and when she touched Lu Zhizhou, a hint of shyness appeared on her face.

------

Since Ruan Jinjin cured herself with medicine and with the help of aromatherapy, she has been more and more diligent in going to County Magistrate Cao's mansion, and in the end she even lived in County Magistrate Cao's mansion.

On this day, County Magistrate Cao was unable to extricate himself from Ruan Jinjin's gentle embrace. Ruan Yunsheng and Lu Zhizhou entered the government office to meet the county magistrate.

"Mr. County Magistrate, long time no see."

The county magistrate sat upright in the hall. Without County Magistrate Cao by his side, his true qualities as a county magistrate were revealed.

"It's you, General Lu Zhizhou. Do you have anything to talk to me about today?"

A hint of surprise flashed in Lu Zhizhou's eyes. He didn't expect that he remembered, "I do have something to say to the county magistrate today, which is..."

Lu Zhizhou looked at the people around him. The county magistrate understood what was going on and waved his hand to ask everyone to leave.

"Now you can speak."

"Don't be anxious, County Magistrate..." Ruan Yunsheng walked to the door and suddenly opened it. Lu Zhizhou flew out of the house and grabbed the eavesdropper and threw him in.

"I didn't expect that the county magistrate could know so much about the situation in the county government even when he is not here. Can the county magistrate tolerate this?" Ruan Yunsheng said casually while looking at the person on the ground.

"County Magistrate Cao has someone backing him up. How can I, who has no background at all, compare to him?" The county magistrate's words seemed a little helpless, but it was also the reality.

Ruan Yunsheng glanced at the yamen runners controlled by Lu Zhizhou and said, "I wonder if the county magistrate wants to be a good official who truly benefits the people of Xin, serves the country, and is worthy of heaven and earth?"

The county magistrate's originally dim eyes suddenly brightened up, "Is it really possible?" This has always been his dream.

"Of course, I just wonder if the county magistrate is willing to let me deal with this person first?"

"Mrs. Lu, please feel free to do as you please." Calling her 'Mrs. Lu' was already the greatest respect for Ruan Yunsheng.

"Zhang He."

"Miss Ruan, what do you want from me?"

"Please arrange two people to put this man in jail. The county magistrate will give the order on what crime he will be charged with after the matter is over."

Zhang He glanced at the people on the ground, and looked at the county magistrate with some embarrassment. The county magistrate waved his hand and said, "Go, and do as Madam Lu said."

Zhang He took the order, and when he left, he couldn't help but look at Ruan Yunsheng. What on earth did she say that could make the county magistrate deal with County Magistrate Cao's people? It seemed that his following was not in vain.

"Now, General Lu and Madam Lu, what do you want me to do?"

"Your Excellency, the County Magistrate, do not need to do anything. You only need to cooperate with us. If we receive a case involving the murder of County Magistrate Cao, please help us smooth things over."

The county magistrate was startled and stood up from his seat, "What? Are you talking about County Magistrate Cao..."

Ruan Yunsheng nodded without saying anything. Lu Zhizhou stood with his hands behind his back, "After this matter is over, we need the county magistrate to restore our status as good citizens in our household registration."

"Good citizen? But the rules of our Dongling country require five million taels..."

Lu Zhizhou said calmly, "Don't worry, we won't give you less than a penny."

The county magistrate was a little surprised. Where did a prisoner like him get so much money? But it was none of his business. All he wanted was to serve the country and the people.

"Okay, if County Magistrate Cao really does... I will protect you."

"You don't have to be so thorough. Since we've done it, we won't leave any evidence behind. We asked you to smooth things over because we're worried that someone will hold on to this matter and delay our future arrangements."

"okay, I get it."

"In the future, I just hope that the county magistrate will protect my family's safety."

Afterwards, Lu Zhizhou and Ruan Yunsheng left the county government office. The county magistrate looked at their backs and for some reason he believed that his time had come.

Sure enough, within ten days, news came that County Magistrate Cao had died suddenly. It was rumored that County Magistrate Cao died in a woman's bed, commonly known as "horse wind". When Ruan Yunsheng heard the news, he just smiled. The woman must be Ruan Jinjin without a doubt.

When the county magistrate received the news that County Magistrate Cao had died suddenly, he was a little surprised. It turned out that County Magistrate Cao was really dead as Lu Zhizhou and the others had said.

After that, the county magistrate carried out a major reform of the entire government office. All the people who had been in office before were dealt with by him, and Mr. Zhou of Baiyun Village also saw his prestige in the village plummet due to the death of County Magistrate Cao.
