Chapter 151
Before they thought of a solution, they had to rely on government pensions to live for a while.

However, the government has always required a certain process to deal with this kind of matter, and it has to be reported layer by layer, and these pensions can only be released after the imperial court allocates funds.

It took a month or two to go back and forth in the middle, and there were layers of exploitation by officials. In the end, the pensions in the hands of the victims' families were pitifully small.

In this regard, the family members of the victims were naturally dissatisfied, and they went to the county government to file a complaint.

As a result, he was either given a perfunctory meal, or ordered to be beaten up by the county magistrate and thrown out of the county government office. Some people who wanted to appeal to a higher level were of course blocked directly and indirectly, so that everyone had nowhere to ask, and could only bear with aggrieved caught.

However, the matter did not end there. Just when the county magistrate thought that the matter could be settled here, for some reason, the families of the victims suddenly acted like crazy and united to make a fuss in front of the county government office.

Even the families of these victims mobilized all the men, women and children in the village to help, and the families of these victims were not from the same village. It is conceivable that people from several villages united to make trouble. That scene——

What a mess!
How could the majesty of the county government be provoked by these untouchables, and all the government officials were sent to suppress it immediately, but unfortunately it didn't have much effect.

Not only did the rioting people not be suppressed, but many yamen servants were beaten to death by the people themselves.

The county magistrate was so frightened that he hid in the government office and did not dare to come out. The people still kept shouting for justice outside.

Helpless, the county magistrate had no choice but to send someone to sneak out and report the situation here to the garrison in Qiannan.

As soon as the garrison heard about the situation, they thought it was okay, and immediately sent troops over.

The army came very quickly, and the rioting people were still a little afraid of the army. Under the strong suppression of the army, they retreated after a short while and retreated.

Seeing that the troublemakers finally left, the county magistrate finally breathed a sigh of relief, "Thanks to General Yuan Shou, you came in time, otherwise those unscrupulous people would have demolished my county office today."

Hearing this, Yuan Ming immediately dismissed it, "A troublemaker is still a troublemaker after all, a person who bullies the weak and fears the hard. How can you, Magistrate Guo, increase the ambition of others and destroy your own prestige?"

"Yes, what General Yuan Shou said is true, the subordinate official made a mistake."

"However, to properly resolve today's matter, you still have to rely on Yuan Shoujiang's majesty. Those unscrupulous people are like mice seeing cats when they see you. They must be intimidated by you. This official really doesn't have the ability."

The county magistrate said with a smile, and also paid a lot of flattery by the way, which really made Yuan Ming very useful, and the little worry about those unruly people gathering crowds to make trouble disappeared immediately.

Seeing this, the county magistrate took the opportunity and said: "It's a coincidence today, General Yuan Shou might as well stay and have a light meal."

Yuan Ming was in a good mood at the moment, so he didn't make any excuses, and agreed directly.

That night.

In the county yamen there were singing and dancing, in order to please Yuan Ming, the county magistrate contributed all the good wine and food in the mansion, and even paid a high price to invite the oiran to dance for everyone. It is really a hemorrhage up.

"General Yuan Shou, I heard that the superiors have issued an order to transfer officials from Qiannan's side this time, I don't know..."

It is inconvenient to say the rest of the words clearly, the county magistrate didn't say any more, but in the officialdom, there are some things that need not be said too clearly, everyone understands.

Yuan Ming drank the wine, but did not respond immediately, and the county magistrate did not dare to urge him when he saw this, and waited patiently while pouring him the wine.

After a while, Yuan Ming spoke slowly, "Magistrate Guo, you have to understand that the order from above is not something that a small general can control, and this general is just following orders."
