With so many officers and soldiers around him, even if the villain looked scary, he wouldn't dare to do anything to him.

The county magistrate took a breath, not wanting to embarrass himself in front of everyone, and said as calmly as possible: "Where is Mr. Yang? I want to see Mr. Yang first."

Gao Hu glared at him, and then ordered the boy next to him: "Go and bring out the stupid Yang Su."

He didn't control his voice, and the county magistrate heard clearly. He secretly thought in his heart, how much hatred this bandit had against Yang Su, and the name was so unpleasant, no wonder Yang Su wanted to personally lead a team to get rid of them.

Soon, Yang Su was escorted out by two bandits.

He was tied up with hemp rope, a piece of coarse cloth was stuffed in his mouth, and his hair crown was a little crooked.

As the magistrate of Qixian County, this was the first time the officers and soldiers had seen Yang Su in such a miserable state.

The county magistrate twitched his lips. His son had just been kidnapped during the day, and I was also kidnapped at night. We are truly a family...

Yang Su had an ugly expression and his eyes were filled with murderous intent.

When he gets out, he will definitely kill Gao Hu who has embarrassed him!
There is also King Xiqing who plotted against him, and he will not let it go...

The county magistrate cleared his throat and said, "Do you know that you are guilty of kidnapping an imperial official? I advise you to release Mr. Yang as soon as possible and get a lighter sentence."

Nan Yue clicked her tongue in her heart, it was strange that the county magistrate would let people go when negotiating like this.

The county magistrate has been an official for many years. Even if he is an insignificant official, he still has his own arrogance. It is impossible to get on good terms with the bandits all at once.

But it's not his fault. He encountered something that other county magistrates would never encounter in their lives. After all, ordinary bandits would not have the guts to kidnap officials...

Gao Hu snorted coldly and refused to cooperate, "Where is the silver I want? Give me the silver first and let us leave, otherwise..."

As he spoke, he raised the knife in his hand and put it against Yang Su's neck...

Seeing this scene, the county magistrate took a breath and said, "Bold! If you let Mr. Yang go, I can spare your life. Please think clearly, if you hurt Mr. Yang even a hair, your entire bandit village will be alive." No!"

"Ha!" Gao Hu said in a mocking tone, "If we don't hurt Yang Su, we won't be able to survive."

He increased his voice and said, "You are the ones who are pressing forward step by step to get rid of Huxiao Village!"

"If you weren't bandits, if you hadn't robbed and killed passing merchants and made the whole Qixian County and even Changxing County uneasy, why would we have come to the bandit stronghold!"

The county magistrate was not so afraid now, he said sharply.

"Do we want to be bandits?!" Gao Hu became even more excited after hearing this. He pressed his hand a little harder, and a blood mark instantly appeared on Yang Su's neck...

Yang Su: "..."

He couldn't speak, so he looked at the county magistrate with accusing eyes.

He usually looks smart, but why did he act stupid today?

If this bandit wants some silver, give it to him first!
Catch them when the time comes and kill them all!
What's the point of arguing with a bandit?

In fact, Yang Su misunderstood the county magistrate this time, mainly because Qixian's supplies and other matters were no longer under his control.

The county magistrate wanted to take the money up the mountain, but the supervisor who acted justly and decisively did not say anything. How could he dare to take the initiative?

I had no choice but to take some people up the mountain overnight.

"Three years ago, there was a natural disaster. Several villages and towns were flooded and countless people were left homeless. I don't believe you didn't report such a big thing to the court! But where is the court's disaster relief fund? Where are the people who helped us rebuild the village? "

"We went to several counties in Changxing County to ask for help, but no county was willing to take us in and rescue us!"

"Who would want to be a bandit if they weren't desperate?"

"You didn't care before, but now we're blocking your way to get rich, and you're here to get rid of us!"

Even though he knew it was just for show, Gao Hu couldn't help but his eyes getting hot when he talked about these things.

The bandit men on the side were also holding back tears. It is inevitable to feel a little aggrieved.

They used to believe in the government and these officials.

Gao Hu's voice was a little hoarse, "You know, most of the people in Huxiao Village are old, weak, women and children. We never rob civilians. Even if we rob businessmen, we will leave half of their money to them and never harm people's lives."

"We at Huxiao Village will take in the refugees you don't care about!"

A man added, "We are not bandits, we are common people who have been abandoned by you."

The officers and soldiers listened silently, feeling a little complicated.

They all took orders from others and had no deep hatred against these bandits.

After hearing these words of Gao Hu, they actually admired this man.

The county magistrate no longer had the previous momentum. He opened his mouth and was about to say something when he heard the young man's voice.

"I understand how you feel."

Nan Yue took a step forward and persuaded with a gentle expression, "What has happened cannot be changed. But I can promise you that such a thing will not happen again in the future."

"I will send someone to investigate. If the facts are as you said, and you really protected the old, weak, women and children, and did not harm anyone, then why not come back to Qixian with us and rebuild your home."

Gao Hu was touched when he heard about rebuilding his home. He paused, but still did not put down the knife, "Who are you? Can you take what you say seriously?"

The man next to him thought about countless sad things in his mind before he could compose his expression and said, "Yes, what if you are like Yang Su?"

I didn't expect that both the headmaster and Mr. Chu would be so good at acting.

Nan Yue smiled slightly and promised: "I am Chu Yu, the transport supervisor, the sixth son of Yongding Marquis. As long as I am here, the people will not be displaced."

what? !

Yongdinghou?
Supervisor?
Yang Su finally set his sights on Nan Yue. He had never cared about her identity before, only thinking that she was someone brought by the county magistrate.

His heart suddenly sank, Yang Su stared fiercely at the young man with a confident smile.

The situation is so bad...

"Now, can you put Yang Su down and come with us?" Nan Yue asked.

Gao Hu slowly put down the knife, still a little wary and said: "You must keep your word."

"of course!"

The county magistrate disagreed. No matter how scared he was, he couldn't help but whispered: "This is not good, they are bandits..."

"Isn't recruiting better than killing?" Nan Yue glanced at him and said without politeness at all, "There are only a few soldiers in Qixian County? It's okay if I don't recruit you. When the time comes to put you in, you'd better be worth a hundred."

The county magistrate choked up. He felt that the governor had a better attitude towards the bandits than he did towards him.

But he thought about it too.

If you don't kill them, you can still gain a good reputation by recruiting them.

Qixian is so big, how can it not feed these people?
but……

Why does he always feel that something is a little weird?

The officers and soldiers didn't have any strange feeling. They had some admiration for the transport supervisor, who conquered a bandit camp with just a few words.

Compared to Yang Su, who led people to suppress bandits but was held hostage instead, he was much more powerful.
