Hearing this voice, Sheng Changan knew that her chance had come. Just as she was about to go over, Wu Xiancheng pulled her back and said, "Sir, I'll go over."

Wu Xiancheng walked over with the sweet potato in his hands and knelt down. "Sir, this is a sweet potato. You must try it."

Sheng Changan's expression changed slightly, and he was about to chase after him, but was directly held in place by Li Dashan. "Li Dashan, what are you going to do?"

Although Li Dashan's face was not very good, he had seen the look in Wu County Cheng's eyes just now, so he could only whisper, "Sir, you can't go over there."

Sheng Changan's face turned pale. "He knelt down." A man's knees are worth gold. How could she let County Magistrate Wu kneel down to others casually?

"Sir, this is the rule here. We have been here before, and because we refused to bow our heads, we suffered a lot. Sir, we cannot let County Magistrate Wu's hard work go to waste."

When these words came out, Sheng Changan was stunned. So, County Magistrate Wu always treated her politely at the beginning because he didn't know what kind of person she was. Later, he treated her better little by little and didn't ask her to carry her luggage anytime and anywhere. Sheng Changan suddenly felt a little guilty. Shouldn't she come here now?

Seeing that Sheng Changan stopped struggling, Li Dashan breathed a sigh of relief. He was afraid that the adults would not be able to figure it out.

He lowered his eyes and looked at County Magistrate Wu lying on the ground. "Sweet potato? That's quite interesting."

County Magistrate Wu didn't look up, but raised his hand higher. "Sir, just peel off the skin and you can eat it."

An ingot of silver was thrown directly in front of County Magistrate Wu. "I want all that." After saying that, the people around him immediately and carefully brought the basket over.

Then his eyes stopped at Sheng Changan. "Is that child from your family? I paid ten taels of silver to buy him."

County Magistrate Wu's face darkened, but he said in an unchanged tone, "Sir, please forgive me," and bowed his head to the ground.

He sneered and turned away, but the person behind him kicked Wu Xiancheng and said, "Bad luck."

Now Li Dashan could no longer sit still, and the two of them ran over. Sheng Changan opened her mouth, not knowing what to say, if County Magistrate Wu had not stopped her, if she had come over by herself.

"Your Excellency, there is no need to bow your head. Just bend your waist," said Wu Xiancheng seriously. After speaking, he patted the dust on his body and said, "I am fine. Here is a tael of silver and I can take them in."

Sheng Changan's eyes were slightly moist. She opened her mouth but didn't know what to say. She could only look up at County Magistrate Wu and say, "I, Sheng Changan, swear that I will make sure the people have enough food and water, and make the world my world, the people's world, and let everyone walk on the street with dignity, and no longer bend their heads." This was also the first time she told County Magistrate Wu about her plan.

County Magistrate Wu looked at Sheng Changan's determined eyes and suddenly his eyes became moist. His choice was not wrong, and that person was not wrong either. If a king is unkind, heaven will punish him. Now the heaven he had been praying for has finally appeared. "I only wish for you, my king." County Magistrate Wu knelt down, and this was also a willing kneeling.

"I'll go through fire and water for you, sir," Li Dashan said, kneeling down excitedly. Even though County Magistrate Wu had said that your ambitions extended beyond this county, he was still afraid, afraid that his revenge wouldn't be possible. Not now. It didn't matter where your master came from, whether he was a god or a ghost, what mattered was that this was the person he was loyal to.

Sheng Changan helped them up. What she said now was just empty talk. She could only promise, "I won't let you down." At least she never wanted to see this scene again.
