Shengjing Noble

Before Su Yongcheng could figure out what was going on, he was suddenly surrounded by a huge crowd.

The entire yard was surrounded by the so-called "fugitives".

Su Yongcheng's eyes showed fear and he took two steps back in fear, while Liu Ruyan behind him quickly hugged Su Lanxin.

"What do you want to do? Don't come over here!"

Su Yongcheng was forced into a situation where he had nowhere to retreat. He could only roar hysterically.

The crowd was silent for a moment, then they all knelt on the ground and burst into deafening cries again.

"Mr. County Magistrate, please make the decision for us!"

"Sir, you are finally here. We are almost being tortured to death!"

"We are all good citizens, please save us!"

……

For a while, the sounds of begging, crying, and accusations were heard one after another.

Su Yongcheng finally realized that they were not here to attack him, but to seek redress for his grievances.

He had just arrived in Qiu County and was worried about how to win the hearts of the people. If he could help the people solve their problems and make contributions, he might be transferred back to Shengjing by the emperor soon.

As long as he seizes the opportunity and wins the hearts of the people, everyone in Qiu County will listen to him in the future.

Even if Su Shengyun was the county magistrate, so what? He still sidelined him and treated him like a mere figurehead!

Thinking of this, a gleam of light flashed in his eyes, and he immediately pretended to be kind and said loudly to the people: "Everyone, I am your new county magistrate. If you have any grievances or difficulties today, you can appeal, and I will definitely solve the problem for you!"

Everyone was moved to tears and praised the county magistrate for his wisdom.

Su Yongcheng is vain and loves to hear flattery. This time he was really carried away and started to investigate the responsibility without even thinking carefully.

After interrogation, the people reported Wang Tao's actions truthfully. Su Yongcheng was furious and immediately ordered him to be imprisoned.

Unfortunately, Wang Tao saw that the situation was not right and immediately fled with his most capable men.

Su Lanyin did not stop them, but quietly followed them to their hiding place and then returned to the county government office.

The people were comforted and went back home.

……

At night, the county government office.

Hualang Garden, which was supposed to be the residence of the county magistrate, was occupied by Su Yongcheng's family.

Su Shengming wanted to argue with them but was stopped by Su Lanyin.

"It doesn't matter. Since Lord Su wants to live there, let him stay there."

"Yinyin, he's overstepping his boundaries!"

Su Shengming was indignant, wondering where his mother, eldest brother and second brother would live when they came.

Su Yongcheng snorted disdainfully: "Humph, you are not as sensible as your sister. Even he knows what an elder is!"

Su Lanyin snorted disdainfully: "What elder? It's just that you guys are staying here and I think it's dirty."

Su Yongcheng was so angry that his face turned green: "You bitch, I should have strangled you to death when I gave birth to you!"

"Really? Then why don't you kill yourself now, Lord Su? Maybe you can go back to the year I was born. You must strangle me to death with your own hands, and don't wait until now to regret it."

"you you……"

Seeing her father was so angry that he was trembling all over and couldn't speak, Su Lanxin stepped forward and said sarcastically: "It's been a long time since I last saw you, sister, you are still so sharp-tongued. No wonder no man wants you."

Su Lanyin couldn't help laughing out loud: "Who is your sister? This county lady is the youngest in the family, but I don't have many sisters. I advise you not to try to get close to others here, so as not to disgust others!"

"What are you so proud of, bitch? You are just a county lady, right? Don't think I don't know that you are just exchanging money for money! Otherwise, do you think the emperor will take you seriously? Isn't it just using your Lu family's money to fill the hole? If you don't have money, you are just a pile of mud!"

"Yes, I am rich, so what? If you have the ability, you can spend money to buy a county lady, and then buy an imperial decree for your mother? What, you don't have the ability? Then shut up!"

"You...you just wait! There is a long time to come, let's wait and see who will have the last laugh!"

Su Lanxin secretly swore in her heart that one day she would trample that bitch Su Lanyin under her feet!

When she becomes the Crown Princess, a mere county lady will be nothing but an ant!

Su Lanyin curled her lips: "Sorry, no one cares."

After saying that, he turned around and left the county government office, dragging the angry Su Shengming.

……

"Where are we going to live if we leave here?"

"Amo has already found a place, just follow me."

"Yinyin, how can you give the county government office to their family? That's my second brother's place!" Su Shengming was very puzzled.

Su Lanyin looked around and felt unsafe. After all, this was the street and it would be bad if there were ears on the other side of the wall.

So she perfunctorily said, "He is the county magistrate, and he has just stood up for the people. If we go against him, it will easily cause misunderstandings among the people. It is better to have less trouble than more. Let's go back and rest first."

"Oh..." Su Shengming didn't ask any more questions and just followed her silently.

The two walked for about an incense stick of time and arrived at a private house. After pushing open the door and going in, A'mo and Xiaoyu were playing inside.

When he saw them coming, he immediately went forward to greet them.

"Miss, Third Young Master!" A'mo bowed.

"Sister! Third brother!"

Xiaoyu threw herself into Su Lanyin's arms, smiling brightly, her eyes full of longing.

"Xiaoyu misses her sister!"

Su Shengming frowned and couldn't help complaining: "Why do you only think about your sister and not your brother? Third brother always buys you fun things!"

"I miss my third brother too!"

Xiaoyu said this and stretched out her little hands to hug his neck, which made him smile again.

"That's pretty much it!"

A few people entered the house while talking and laughing. After closing the door and making sure that no one was following them outside, Su Lanyin looked serious.

"Third brother, I can now tell you the question you asked me on the road just now."

Su Shengming looked confused: "What do you mean?"

"Su Yongcheng's residence in the county government office can protect us from disaster. Don't forget that Wang Tao intended to attack you before. Now that they haven't found the whereabouts of the treasure map, they will definitely target the people living in the county government office."

After she said this, Su Shengming suddenly understood.

"That's right! Why didn't I think of that? Yinyin is really smart. In this way, won't my second brother be safe?"

"Yes, that's why I didn't stop Wang Tao and let him escape."

"Then what do we do next?"

"My grandfather and uncle actually sent disaster relief supplies a long time ago, but I was worried that the water in Qiu County was too deep, so I didn't dare to have people transport them here in advance, so they were temporarily placed in Lin County."

"Tomorrow morning, A'mo, you take some young and strong people in the city to transport grain, while my third brother and I will go to investigate the treasure map."

"Okay!" A'mo nodded.

"Oh, don't forget one more thing!" Su Shengming reminded, "Xiao Yu's life experience."

"Don't worry, I haven't forgotten. Before the second brother arrives, let's help him clear the obstacles. After all, there should be a lot of things waiting for him as the county magistrate in Qiu County."
