County magistrate Zhou didn't hesitate when he saw this. He chuckled and said, "Looking at the extraordinary bearing and expensive ornaments of the two young masters, they must have come from a wealthy family. They don't know the sufferings of the people and the difficulties of governing a county and a city. Pingnan County It is located at the junction of Twelve Prefectures and Zhongzhou. It has its own unique geographical advantages and is very difficult to manage. It has poor mountains and rivers and many unruly people. After the Northern Barbarians settled, conflicts continued. Here they wanted food, and there they wanted land. Our government was also very difficult. It is difficult to do, and there will be some means as a last resort. It may not be understood and accepted by the two young masters, but it is the most appropriate way for our government to deal with it. After all, we must adapt to local conditions and cannot just rely on things in books to govern a city. Everything unusual you see has its own reasons. The two young masters also suffered a lot of grievances when they came to Pingnan County and listened to many rumors. As a government agency, we must have neglected our duties. The losses suffered by the two young masters were all caused by the robbers. It has been returned. If there is anything missing, our government will also compensate it. I just hope that after the two young masters leave Pingnan County, they will not discuss the affairs of Pingnan County. This matter cannot be said to others."

Fang Chuning realized it!

Xie Jue guessed what the county magistrate was going to say when he was about to send them away. This county magistrate was indeed a talent. He didn't kill people to silence others in a hot-headed way. He also knew not to offend the powerful. Many friends, many paths, many people. There are many enemies and stumbling blocks. I used kind words to persuade them, just hoping that they were young masters who were not familiar with the world and would not care about the affairs of Pingnan County. If they were appeased, the affairs of Pingnan County would not be spread out, but what if they could not be appeased?

Xie Jue said, "Is the county magistrate talking about the government colluding with the robbers to suppress the Northern Barbarians? Or is it that the government government deliberately provokes hatred between the people and the Northern Barbarians to consolidate the government's position? Which one are you talking about?"

Magistrate Zhou still had a smile on his face, "Sir, it is a good thing for young people to be upright and loyal. When I was young, I was full of enthusiasm and wanted to ask for orders for the people, but it is not so easy to be a good official. Without the suppression of robbers, who are the Northern Barbarians? Can they be subdued? They want land and food, what about us local people? The court only issues decrees, but there are difficulties in implementing them. You have never been an official, so you don't know the hardships involved. "

"I've never been an official, so I don't know the hardships?" Xie Jue almost laughed out of anger, "How do you know?"

Xie Jue was very youthful. Even though he was calm and collected, his face was still raw and tender. When the county magistrate saw that he had a bookish temperament, he thought about whose son was still studying and had not yet passed the exam. He took it for granted that Ningzhou's The young master wanted to go to Beijing to take the exam, but it was difficult. He didn't expect that Xie Jue was the policy maker.

"Young Master, I do have difficulties and many offenses. If the two young masters agree to my request, I will do my best to agree to their request. You are in Ningzhou, and I am in Pingzhou. Nanxian County is hundreds of miles apart. Well water does not interfere with river water, so there is no need for enmity. What do you think?" Magistrate Zhou was very patient and still explained with a smile, hoping that they would keep it secret!

Fang Chuning said, "My lord is indeed in trouble. My brother-in-law has a stubborn temper. Don't be offended. Now that the property has been retrieved and our brothers are safe and sound, we can naturally continue to travel around the world and enjoy ourselves. Your affairs in Pingnan County have nothing to do with us." Come on, we don't care, since the adults have spoken, we brothers will just do it."

County Magistrate Zhou smiled happily and thought to himself, these two brothers, this younger brother is really cold-hearted. Fortunately, the elder brother of the family is sensible, so he doesn't have to waste words. As long as he is sensible, everything will be easy. He also hopes that this The matter was resolved smoothly.

The county magistrate had a strong premonition that if he offended them, there would be endless troubles, so he made a rare move and hoped that they would continue traveling and forget about Pingnan County.

Xie Jue snorted coldly, but didn't say anything anymore. He knew what Fang Chuning meant. He wanted to leave here before talking. Fang Chuning also used his eyes to signal him not to be impulsive.

Fang Chuning said goodbye to the county magistrate with a smile, and just as he was about to leave with Xie Jue, an official rushed into the courtyard and shouted to the county magistrate, "Sir, sir, don't let them go. Just now I heard Du Fang shouting His prince, he is the prince...His Royal Highness King Yan." (End of this chapter)
