Daliang female chief assistant

Chapter 18
As soon as she finished speaking, an untimely voice suddenly sounded from the quiet crowd.

In an instant, the villagers' emotions were stirred up again.

"No way? This county magistrate doesn't look like the kind of person who is obedient and obedient."

"Why not? The world is as black as crows. He must be the same as that surnamed Li, embezzling our money and not doing things for our people."

"Then what can we do?"

"What should we do? If he doesn't care about us, we'll go to Lord Inspector and jointly sign a letter requesting the emperor to dismiss him from office and execute him!"

"Decapitate..."

Seeing the villagers getting more and more emotional, Zhou Shu felt bitter and sad when he heard those heartbreaking words.

Just as she was about to explain, she heard the voice say again: "Sir, those infected with the plague are now in the village. Our Siyi County suffered a natural disaster, and the villagers were displaced. Now we finally have a place to stay temporarily." , but because of those people, we good-looking people dare not go home."

"My lord, please understand the suffering of our common people, and drive those people out of the village as soon as possible."

Those people are also villagers in Siyi County, and they are also suffering.

How could they be ruthlessly expelled to avoid infection?
Zhou Shu calmed down, his big bright eyes fixed on the man who spoke just now.

The man was dressed in a brown blouse, with wicked eyebrows and mouse eyes, and his facial features were neither good-looking nor ugly.

It's just that they seem out of place with the villagers in Siyi County around them.

Due to long-term displacement, the villagers were so hungry that their faces were thin and their skin was sallow, and their eyes were dull.

The clothes on his body were even more tattered and covered with patches.

Let alone a pair of shoes.

Among the villagers crowding at the gate of the county government office, apart from the man, there were three or four other well-dressed men with the same rogue head and rat eyes.

Zhou Shu looked at those people calmly, and his eyes fell on the shoes they were wearing.

It's official boots.

It seems to be someone from the government.

She had seen all the yamen servants in the county yamen yesterday, and these people were familiar faces.

The hands under the sleeves tightened, Zhou Shu turned his head, and whispered something in Qiu Min's ear.

After the words fell, Qiu Min followed her gaze and nodded silently.

The man noticed the movements of the two of them and became vigilant. He winked with his companions and was about to leave.

At this time, the sound of horseshoes sounded, and before everyone could react, they were surrounded by soldiers.

Wen Yuting rode at the front, holding the rein with one hand, with the same arrogant expression on his face.

Opening her thin lips lightly, she gave orders to the soldier behind her.

"Arrest these troublemakers for Benhou, put them in prison, and interrogate them well."

"Yes."

The little soldiers moved quickly, and without much effort, they arrested the troublemakers and brought them to Wen Yuting.

"Young Lord, we are all ordinary people, why are you arresting us?"

The man who took the lead in making trouble before turned his head and glared at Zhou Shu with an expression of indignation.

"My lord, is this how you are the parent officer of our Siyi County? We just told a few words of the truth, and you let us be arrested. Could it be that you want to torture us severely and torture us?"

The surrounding villagers who didn't know the truth looked at Zhou Shu with fear when they heard his words.

Seeing her walking forward, they couldn't help stepping back to make way for her.

Zhou Shu's eyes were cold, he walked up to the man who led the trouble, pointed to his boots, and said loudly: "You keep claiming that you are a citizen of Siyi County, but you look around, Siyi County suffered natural disasters, farm houses Ruined, let alone sleep, the villagers can't even eat enough to eat, let alone have nothing to cover their bodies."

"But look at your feet again, you are wearing official boots."

When Zhou Shu pointed out his identity bluntly, the man subconsciously shrank his feet under his pants.

Looking at her, he still didn't give up and said: "You don't swear, I'm not a member of the government. The shoes on my feet are just the kindness of the governor. He saw us suffering and gave us to wear them."

He saved himself.

Before interrogation, Sun Yao confessed.

Zhou Shupi smiled, "There are so many people in Siyi County, why did the governor only lend a helping hand to you? Could it be that in his heart, other people in Siyi County are not as good as you?"

She will also use the trick of borrowing a knife to kill someone.

Hearing that Zhou Shu provoked the villagers' hostility towards Sun Yao, the man became anxious.

Breaking free from the restraint of the soldier, he rushed towards her regardless.

"Officer Dog, I'm going to kill you!" the man roared angrily.

Before rushing in front of Zhou Shu, Zhou Hui and Qiu Min, who flew over, kicked him away with one kick.

Kneeling down in front of Zhou Shu again, the man was impotent and furious.

Wen Yuting gave an order, "Take it down."

The man and his companions were taken down and locked up.

The surrounding villagers were all terrified by the scene where the man rose up to kill Zhou Shu just now.

Stepping aside, he kept swallowing.

Wen Yuting rode forward on the horse, smiling like a spring breeze.

"Zhou Shu, Ben Hou helped you again, how should you thank me?"

Just now when the man rushed over without hesitation, Zhou Shu's heart was also suspended. Hearing Wen Yuting's joke at this moment, a faint smile appeared on his pale face.

"Xiaguan is willing to go up the mountain of swords and down the sea of ​​fire for the young master, and he will die."

"Hehe—" Hearing this, Wen Yuting laughed softly, leaned over, looked straight into her eyes, and whispered in her ear: "You are so delicate and weak, this Marquis can't bear to let you go up the mountain of swords and into the sea of ​​fire."

After finishing speaking, regardless of her sudden face change, she straightened up and turned to face the villagers in Siyi County.

"The Marquis has already known about the plague. Don't worry, with County Magistrate Zhou and the Marquis here, I will not watch you die from the plague."

"Thank you, Lord Marquis, thank you, Lord Magistrate." The villagers in Siyi County knelt and kowtowed in gratitude.

Before they could be happier for a while, Wen Yuting then changed the topic again.

"But God has the virtue of loving life, His Majesty's holy heart is benevolent, and sent this Marquis to Siyi County for disaster relief, to save you from fire and water."

"Nowadays a plague is breaking out, although the number of people infected is still small, but every commoner is His Majesty's subject, and they are all living lives. It is absolutely impossible for the Marquis and Magistrate Zhou to watch them wait to die. "

"Benhou and Zhou County Magistrate have already discussed that they will find a place for the villagers who have been infected with the plague to live and treat them. In addition, Benhou will also gather the power of all the doctors in the city to research the prescription for the plague as soon as possible. Heal the villagers infected with the plague, and let everyone reunite as soon as possible."

The words are sincere and the tone is sonorous and firm.

Wen Yuting's words undoubtedly infected the villagers in Siyi County.

All of them had tears in their eyes, thankful that they met such a good county magistrate and governor.

After kowtowing again and again.

Zhou Shu asked Wang Youxian's men to evacuate the villagers and settle them down.

And he took a team of people to the village to transport the villagers who died of the plague out of the city, and burned the bodies.

Zhou Hui was worried about her and stopped her, "A Ci, you are weak, leave these matters to me and Qiu Min."
