At this time, Inspector Lou was standing behind Yang Er in a ninth-grade official uniform with a very gloomy expression.

Although this person does not have a high official position in the court, he holds real power in this place. Even his words can determine whether Yang Er can continue to stay as captain in the future.

Yang Er looked at the people behind him and began to stutter when he spoke, "Touer Lou, I wish... I wish you... I wish you blessings like the East China Sea, blessings like the East China Sea."

Hearing this, everyone suppressed smiles on their lips. This Yang Er is just flattering, but he can't be photographed, and he's not celebrating his birthday, so he's as blessed as the East Sea.

Inspector Lou did not dwell on Yang Er's words. He glanced at the city wall and said, "I just heard you say that this wall is going to be demolished and reworked?"

Faced with questioning, Yang Er could only make up lies. He couldn't say that it was because he disliked Si Mubai that he asked him to rework.

"Sir, this wall is not straight. I just measured it specifically, so I asked him to rework it. After all, it is a city wall, and I don't dare to let them make any mistakes."

After the words fell, Si Mubai stood up and said, "Lou inspected, there is nothing wrong with this wall. It's not like what Captain Yang said. If you don't believe it, you can check it."

Hearing this, a trace of panic flashed in Yang Er's eyes, and he was the first to scold, "Who do you think you are, how dare you instigate Boss Lou."

"Remember your identity for me, you are just a dispatcher!"

Si Mubai didn't say anything, just stood there with an indifferent expression.

On the contrary, it was Lou who was doing the inspection. He looked at Yang Er and said coldly, "Shut up!"

Yang Er seemed to have won a gold medal, "Did you hear that? From now on, don't say a word or make a sound."

Inspector Lou pursed his lips. Yang Er really couldn't understand human speech, could he? "I was talking about you, not him. How much have you said since I came here!"

"Stop talking, stop talking, little one!" Yang Er quickly shut up, fearing that he would offend Inspector Lou and ruin his future.

Inspector Lou ordered someone to bring an ink fountain and inspect it carefully. Several times Yang Er wanted to interrupt him, but he didn't dare to say anything.

After some measurements, this wall fully meets the requirements of the Ministry of Works. Suddenly, Inspector Lou looked at Yang Er with a cold look in his eyes.

"Yang Er, is this what you said does not meet the requirements? You should tell me what your requirements are? Are your requirements more accurate than those of the Ministry of Industry?"

Yang Er asked several questions in a row and didn't know how to explain them. At this time, his forehead was covered with sweat, but his mind was always looking for a suitable excuse.

He Peng looked at his appearance and felt a little happy. As long as he couldn't give a reason, his bullying of Si Mubai would naturally be exposed.

Just when he couldn't wait to see Yang Er's misfortune, Si Mubai suddenly said, "Tou Lou, maybe Captain Yang just saw it wrong."

Hearing this, Yang Er nodded repeatedly, "Yes, yes, I was indeed wrong."

Hearing these words, the pride in He Peng's eyes suddenly disappeared. He looked at Si Mubai, with a hint of confusion in his eyes.

Inspector Lou seemed to believe this reason, but when he looked at Yang Er, his face still looked bad, "Humph, repairing the city wall is the foundation of the country."

"You can even misunderstand such a thing. This time it shows that your mind is not on the repair at all. If it happens again, I will never let you off lightly."

"When the time comes, not only will you not be able to hold the position of captain, you will also be punished."

Yang Er nodded apprehensively, not daring to argue any further. After a while, Inspector Lou looked at Si Mubai and said, "Si Langjun, the farming is going to be busy in your village, and there are not enough manpower."

"The steward wants you and He Peng to go back and help. The farm work is also important. You two should go back!"

Si Mubai nodded, "Okay, I understand! Thank you Mr. Lou, we will go back now."

"Well, let's go back!" Inspector Lou waved his hand towards the two of them, "When you go back, be careful on the road!"

Si Mubai and He Peng thanked Lou for inspection, took their tools and left the place. Seeing Si Mubai's leaving figure and Lou's polite inspection, Yang Er felt dissatisfied.

"Hmph, they are the only ones with land in Yunzhuang. No other village has it. This Si Mubai is just a criminal dispatcher. Can't he survive without Yunzhuang?"

"A sinner should stay here and do hard labor. Even if he is exhausted, he deserves it." Yang Er murmured to himself.

Hearing this, Inspector Lou kicked Yang Er's leg, "You are blind, you are a sinner and not a sinner. How can you talk nonsense about the court's affairs?"

"If he, Simu Bai, is a sinner, then you are not even a human being. Get out of here and stop being embarrassed here. You don't know where the road is going, right?"

Yang Er didn't dare to lie, so he could only hang his head and leave. He has lost all his people today, so he might as well leave now.

On the way back, He Peng couldn't help but ask, "Brother Si, I just heard what Lou said during the inspection, and it seems that he thinks highly of you."

Si Mubai tightened his eyes and said in a deep voice, "He has a very good relationship with Master Tie!"

He Peng could still understand this. Master Tie never hesitated to praise Si Mubai. He had previously said that he admired Si Mubai's past military achievements.

Since Inspector Lou has a good relationship with Lord Tie, he will know more or less about Si Mubai.

"Brother Si, since you know that Inspector Lou has a good relationship with Lord Tie. Why didn't you just take this opportunity to drive away Yang Er."

Mentioning this matter, Si Mubai pursed his lips slightly and said, "He Peng, I said before that it is not easy to deal with Yang Er."

"He has been here for more than ten years. He is not willing to just be an unknown captain. Therefore, he will also have his own connections in the yamen."

"Don't think he is just a captain. If you really want to take action with him, even Lou's inspection will take a lot of effort."

He Peng nodded slightly, listening attentively to what Si Mubai said.

Seeing this, Si Mubai continued, "Master Tie and Inspector Lou may have a different view of me, but it really doesn't mean that they can offend Yang Er because of me, or even the person behind him."

This time, He Peng did not continue to ask. He always only sees things as right and wrong, and doesn't care about those twists and turns.

After a moment, he said, "Brother Si, is there nothing we can do about Yang Er? He has bullied you all these years, and this is it?"

Si Mubai frowned slightly, "It doesn't make much sense to say this now. Now that you and I have been sent to build the city wall, then don't worry about it so much."

This was true, but He Peng still couldn't get over this hurdle in his heart. (End of chapter)
