Early the next morning, Mu Yan received an order from the county magistrate. The reason was that she should pay a visit to the county magistrate, her superior, after taking office for so long.

Although the county guard and the county magistrate were both in Longcheng, they had no intersection.

The county governor didn't show up the day she took office, and even more so when he knew she was having a fight with the king of Donglong County, he even avoided her.

If I want to see her this time, the reason will definitely not be simple.

When we arrived, the gate of the county guard was closed tightly, and there was no intention of welcoming guests at all.

Su Jishan suggested, "Sir, I will knock on the door right now."

Mu Yan looked around and saw a tea shop not far away, "No need, the county governor is determined to show off, we have to fulfill her wish, let's go to the tea shop to rest."

There are countermeasures from above and strategies from below. If she wants to show off her power, just let her do it.

It would be a foolish dream to think of her standing there in the snow.

"Yes, my lord."

Su Jishan acted quickly, and soon the waiter at the tea shop served hot tea and desserts.

Mu Yan drank hot tea and looked at the snow-covered earth in trance. In her previous life, she was from the south and had never seen the heavy snow in the north, but she was lucky enough to see it this time.

In just one night, heavy snow has covered all the houses, the rivers have been covered with a thick layer of ice, and the people are staying behind closed doors.

Fortunately, supplies were sent to the people in advance and their houses were reinforced. I hope they can survive this winter safely.

That sentence is really true. The people don't care who becomes the emperor. As long as it can make them live a good life, they are all good monarchs.

They just want to have a chance to survive in troubled times.

The only people who really care about that position are those who are ambitious.

They just want to stand at the top of a country and look down on those at the bottom.

But they don’t know that a country cannot represent a world, nor do they know that there is a world outside the world.

While drinking tea, Su Jishan paid attention to the door of the county magistrate's mansion. An hour had passed, and there was no sign of the door being opened.

There was always no movement, so her thoughts changed, "Sir, would you like me to go in and investigate."

Mu Yan calmly picked up a piece of pastry and said, "No, we will go back after finishing this cup of tea."

They had arrived at the county governor's mansion, and it was impossible for the county governor not to know.

Then her behavior not only shows off her power, but also shocks herself, and more importantly, it is done for others to see.

Such behavior is more like showing determination.

I don’t know who the county governor is loyal to?

It was almost time, and when Mu Yan and the two left the tea shop and were about to go back, a guard ran up and stopped them.

"Your Majesty the County Magistrate, the County Sheriff has invited you."

If there was anything Su Jishan couldn't figure out, the county guard was just treating them like monkeys.

Mu Yan nodded lightly and motioned for her to lead the way. He originally thought that he would not see the county governor today.

I didn't expect that I would still have to enter the gate of the Sheriff's Mansion.

When Su Jishan was following him into the governor's house, he was stopped by the guards outside the door.

"The county guard only summons the county magistrate to enter the house."

Su Jishan was about to get angry. The reason why she allowed the master to enter the house was because she had bad intentions. How could she let the master be in danger alone.

"Wait for me at the tea shop."

After hearing Mu Yan's words, Su Jishan stopped trying to push forward. Mu Yan followed the guard to the hall with eyes and nose, and although there were no clues along the way, there were quite a few people hiding in the dark corners.

There are so many masters in the county governor's mansion, so they can't be prepared for her. No wonder Su Jishan is blocked from the door.

The hall was empty, and there wasn't even a pot of hot tea on the table.

Mu Yan calmly found a chair and sat down, picked up the book in his arms and continued reading.

Seeing that she was doing well outside, I specially asked her to come in to endure the cold.

After waiting for another moment to burn the incense, a female man in official uniform came out of the house. She was probably in her 40s, tall and thin, and her face looked as spunky as a monkey's.

"It's my fault. I came a little late when something urgent suddenly happened. I'm sure Mr. Mu won't blame me."

Although he said apologetic words, there was no sincerity on his face.

Mu Yan stood up and saluted, "I've met the Lord Sheriff. I have nothing to do today. I can still afford to wait for more than an hour."

This sentence directly refutes the county governor's face.

The county guard did not sit on the main seat, but found a seat next to Mu Yan and sat down.

"Master Mu is really kind. It's my fault for keeping Master Mu waiting for so long. I offer tea instead of wine to apologize to Master Mu."

The county guard did not expect that the Longcheng county magistrate would not give her face like this. A dark light flashed in her eyes, whether she really didn't know how to adapt or did it on purpose.

Mu Yan took the tea and drank it in one gulp. He looked at the county magistrate with some embarrassment, as if he was grateful for what he just said.

"I have not been here long since I took office. Please forgive me, Lord Sheriff, for my courtesy."

He said this sentence awkwardly, as if he had just learned it.

The governor agreed, "It's easy to talk, easy to talk. I'm not a talented official but I have been an official for more than ten years. If Master Mu has anything you don't understand, feel free to ask me."

As she spoke, she tentatively looked at the book in Mu Yan's hand, "When I came in just now, I saw Mr. Mu reading a book. I wonder which one Mr. Mu was reading?"

Mu Yan generously handed the book to the county guard, "Xiaguan was born as an Orion and is illiterate. The county magistrate suggested that the magistrate start from the discipline discipline. Fortunately, the county magistrate gave me some advice when handling the case before, otherwise the magistrate would definitely make a fool of himself."

The disciple rules were just for the enlightenment of three-year-old children, but the county guard did not expect that Mu Yan would reveal himself so openly.

Her vigilance was immediately relaxed.

"It is Longcheng's blessing that Mr. Mu is so motivated. I still need to learn more from you."

Upon hearing this, Mu Yan waved his hands quickly, "No, no, it's better for the lower officials to learn more from the county governor."

The county guard's thoughts moved and he leaned over, "As long as Mr. Mu needs me for study, I will do my duty. Today, I called Mr. Mu here because I just want to understand something."

Mu Yan said sternly, "If you have anything to ask, Lord Sheriff, I will tell you everything I know."

Seeing that she agreed, the county guard took a sip of tea and continued: "I heard that Mr. Mu arrested someone the day before yesterday?"

Mu Yan sneered in his heart. It turned out that he was waiting for her here. When she was arresting Hua Fang, she had been guessing who would come to rescue her. She didn't expect that after waiting and waiting, it would be the county guard.

It seems that Hua Fang is very important to them. To be precise, she has some secrets that they need.

Mu Yan looked serious and spoke plausibly, "Exactly, that guy from Hua Fang did a lot of evil things. If I hadn't seen her robbing my brother with my own eyes, I would still be kept in the dark until now."

After hearing this, the county guard suddenly became furious and slammed the table, "That fellow from Hua Fang is so despicable. I was really blind before I made friends with her. Master Mu, you did the right thing. As an official, We must eliminate harm for the people.”

A chill flashed across Mu Yan's eyes. The governor's angry expression was quite similar, but he ignored the disguise in his eyes.

When a person is truly angry, her eyes cannot be so calm. It seems that she already knew what Hua Fang did.

Or was she also involved in those things?
