The lucky wife of a peasant is not easy to mess with, so she can earn her life by marrying her husba

"Sir, I think according to what Master Zhao said, we are really going to hit a wall this time. Since these chieftains can control the life and death of the common people, the common people will not dare to go against their wishes. If they want to stop them, I think it’s very easy for adults to do things, so we need to think of a good strategy.”

"Yeah, if that's the case, I'm afraid it's not appropriate for us to be in the limelight when we first go, and we have to keep a low profile and wait until we find out the local situation before we can make other plans."

Xichun was not very clear about the power of those chieftains. In her own time, there were no such chieftains anymore, and the local people had deeper feelings for the country.

"Yes, I think this matter needs to be considered in the long term. In this way, we should not act rashly. We will wait until we understand the local chronicles, the local forces and their scope of power before making any plans.

If we take the initiative to do things, I'm afraid not only will we not get any favors, but we will also let them take advantage of us.

Yu Ping, if someone comes to you during this period or wants to inquire about information, just be vague. Taozi, if someone wants to trick you, you should be careful. Also, during this period, you must not act without authorization. Someone else must follow, and they must not be given a chance. "

Fu Changfeng thought for a while and then gave the order.

"Yes, we will definitely be cautious." Both of them agreed.

"Don't worry, it's the same here. I plan to invite the wives and daughters of the local squires here. I'll try to find out more about the relationship between these ladies."

Xichun saw him looking at her and told her plan.

"Very good, let's do this. As long as we work together, I don't believe they are so impregnable and we will definitely find a flaw."

Having made up their minds, everyone hurried on their way, and finally arrived at Shaoming County five days later. After observing the surrounding area of ​​Shaoming County, they found that it was also a place with steep terrain, and the fields were also full of crops. The crops show that they are all hardworking people.

"Let's go, your whole family has committed a crime. Come with me to meet the chieftain. If you dare to disobey, you will be served with a stick!" While they were secretly observing the reactions of these people, suddenly there was a group of people in the distance, driving them with whips. A chained family came over.

Their local accent is very strong, and some words and phrases are also connected with "Xi Chun", so not all of them are understandable.

"We are not wrong. That is my family's land. What happened to our farming? You people are all the chieftain's thugs and have forcibly occupied my family's land. I will also file a complaint against you to the chieftain!"

The faces of the detained family were all flushed. If they were not restrained by ropes, they would probably have resisted.

"Hmph, since you don't want to, then let's go talk to the chieftain and take him away. You disobey the chieftain, how dare you disobey the chieftain's order!" After hearing what he said, the man fiercely pulled off his braid. Dumped on the resisting man.

When the people around him saw this, they didn't dare to point fingers and quickly gave way, waiting for them to pass by first.

Fu Changfeng also motioned to his people with his eyes, telling them to disperse and wait until these people left before asking for information.

"Old man, who are these people? Why are they still tied up? Are they from the Yamen?" Xichun stepped forward and wanted to ask an old man standing aside.

"What are you talking about? I don't understand, are you a foreigner?" The old man listened to her for a long time, but still didn't understand. Seeing the wariness in their eyes, the old man picked up his things and left quickly.

"Auntie, we are from a foreign country. Do you know what happened just now?" Xichun refused to give up and asked another aunt.

Fortunately, the lady saw that the person asking the question was a woman. After listening carefully for a while, she said in a strong local accent: "Oh, they are all people who have offended the chieftain. It must have been the chieftain who sold their land to them." That person, but their family didn't agree, and that's why they started making trouble." After listening carefully, Xichun pieced together what she said, and finally understood the reason.

"Then why didn't they go to the Yamen? How could the chieftain sell his family's land to others?" Xichun continued to ask, but the lady didn't know whether she didn't understand or didn't dare to answer, so she walked away.

"It seems that these chieftains are more powerful than we thought. Let's go to the county government first and hand over the situation." Fu Changfeng also frowned.

At the gate of the city, they saw a few people arriving. The gatekeeper felt that they did not look like locals, so he asked them to take out the road guide to check. After hearing that Fu Changfeng and the others were coming to take office, they also hurriedly saluted.

"It turns out that the county magistrate has arrived. I asked you why you are so kind. I will take a few of you to the county government office. Everyone in the government office is waiting for your Excellency to arrive."

The city guard had a flattering look on his face, which was beyond their expectation. They thought that these people turned a deaf ear even to the county magistrate because of the chieftain.

"What's your name, are you a local?" Fu Changfeng heard his somewhat lame Mandarin and thought to himself that there was finally someone who could understand him.

"My lord, my name is Yang Guangcai, and my family is from this county. We heard that a new county magistrate is coming, and the county magistrate has been asking us to wait at the city gate."

"Okay, then let's go to the county government office." When he didn't know whose orders the city guard was following, Fu Changfeng didn't dare to ask too many questions, lest the people behind him find out and take precautions.

"Sir, the county government is right in front. I want to go back to guard the city gate, so I won't take you in."

"Okay, thank you very much, little brother. Let's go in." Fu Changfeng led a group of people to the gate of the county government. At this time, the two government servants at the door were dozing off against each other, and mosquitoes were surrounding them. Occasionally, I have to swat mosquitoes.

"Ahem." Taozi coughed when he saw this. The two of them woke up instantly and were a little surprised to see their arrival.

"Who are you? Why don't you hurry up and come to the county government office to disturb grandpa's dream?" The government servant didn't wake up from his nap, and he couldn't help but feel a little angry when he thought that these people had disturbed his dream.

"Of course we are people who come to the county government office to do business. I dare you to ask why you are taking a nap here. People will come to the government office at any time. If you do this, aren't you damaging the dignity of the government office?"

Zhao Yuping, under Fu Changfeng's instruction, asked the two of them with a straight face.

"Go, go, there are a few foreigners who want to put on a show in front of us, so hurry up and leave. The county government is not a place for people like you."

"If we can't come, then who can come?"

"Hey, I'm telling you, you guys seem to be fair-faced people, but why are you talking so unpleasantly? Go, go, go. If you don't leave, I'm going to kick you out."

"Oh, drive people away. You don't even ask who we are or whether we have any grievances. You just drive people away. If you do this, how many people dare to come to redress their grievances? Call out your county magistrate quickly, otherwise I’m just afraid that it won’t be easy for you to do business.”

Fu Changfeng put on a posture, and the two looked at each other, wondering if they were relatives of the county magistrate?
