All sects work

Chapter 164 Kill
Since the last time she entered the dream, Shi Xuanying has never paid any attention to Xiao Hongfan, and Xiao Hongfan also seems indifferent to this recruitment.

Before the next contact, more chips must be obtained.

Master Xuanying thought as she ate some sunflower seeds.

"Sir! I come here to apologize!" County Magistrate Cao stood in front of the door, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead.

Shi Xuanying was a leader who was particularly willing to delegate power. She was only responsible for making plans and checking the results. The burden fell almost entirely on County Magistrate Cao. He had been so busy recently that he had not even touched the ground. He had passed by his house three times in the past two days without entering. He had no idea that his wife had brought people to see the county magistrate. It was not until this morning when Shi Xuanying said those words and smashed the table with her palm that he found out that his wife was involved in this matter after he inquired about it!

He quickly ran home to find out the truth, and then hurried back to apologize.

"Come in." said Shi Xuanying.

When County Magistrate Cao entered the room, he immediately bowed to Master Xuanying and said, "I am an ignorant woman who was soft-hearted and was plotted against. I have done something wrong. Please forgive me, my Lord!"

"I think Madam Cao is pretty good." Shi Xuanying smiled. "She is already better than many people for taking this step. Those people pushed her here with various purposes. Although she was tricked because of her soft heart, her kindness and courage in fighting for the survival of many women are real."

She said this sincerely, without a hint of irony.

County Magistrate Cao had never expected that Shi Xuanying would not be angry, but would speak so highly of his wife. He was surprised but also finally relieved: "After all, I am causing trouble for you, my Lord."

"I plan to set up some workshops and schools in the name of the government. Your Madam is very suitable to take care of this mess." Shi Xuanying changed the subject, "However, soft-heartedness is a double-edged sword. If she can learn from her lesson and act with her brain first instead of emotion in the future, let her come to me."

County Magistrate Cao knew that Shi Xuanying was not a narrow-minded person. He had always acted like a hands-off boss and seemed particularly easy to talk to. But the slap he received this morning really frightened him.

She said that within these two counties, she was the sky.

Judging from her actions since she took office, County Magistrate Cao knew in his heart that she probably wanted to be more than just the head of these two counties.

Thinking of this, County Magistrate Cao became more respectful and said, "Yes."

"If anyone wants to leave these days because they cannot accept the government's orders, let them go."

County Magistrate Cao was about to agree, but she added, "We'll kill them all after we leave the city."

The tone was as calm and natural as eating and drinking.

County Magistrate Cao suddenly raised his head, trying to hold his expression, but horror was overflowing from his eyes. He opened his mouth and found that he had lost his voice for a short time. "Can't bear to leave?" Shi Xuanying pointed to a seat beside him, "Sit down."

County Magistrate Cao's mind was in a mess, his legs were shaking, and he didn't know how he walked over and sat on the chair. He controlled Tao County and developed his own power, but he was never a corrupt official who levied heavy taxes, exploited the fat of the land, and harmed the innocent.

He really cared about the people under his rule. He also saw the efforts of Shi Xuanying, who stored grain, found new grain varieties, upheld justice for women, thought of ways to make money, and recruited warriors to protect the safety of the entire county. He always thought that this was a good official who cared about the people...

But what did he just hear? Just because someone left because of dissatisfaction with the government order, she was going to kill someone?
Shi Xuanying did not miss any of his expressions, but did not explain.

When County Magistrate Cao thought of the new grain seeds, he was startled and woke up.

The world is in chaos right now. If news came out that there were grain varieties in the two counties that could produce 1,000 kilograms per mu...

This place is far away from Qudu, but very close to the restoration army of Xu State and Xiaochen State. Before the news reaches Qudu, it will arouse the covetousness of both parties, and the stable situation that he has been working hard to maintain will be destroyed.

Shi Xuanying had just been eating sunflower seeds for a long time and felt a little dry, so she stood up and walked to the tea table to pour herself a glass of water.

"Sir..." County Magistrate Cao couldn't help but said, "Why not, why not arrest those who left..."

Shi Xuanying took a sip of water and turned to look at him: "I just said that you can stay or leave as you wish. If you turn around and capture him, doesn't it seem that I am not trustworthy?"

This was just an excuse she made up. In fact, County Magistrate Cao knew that only the dead would not talk nonsense. He hesitated and said, "If many people leave, then..."

"After crossing a pass here, to the west is Huazhou, the battlefield between Xu and Qu, to the east is the battlefield between Xiaochen and Qu, and to the north is a great drought. Their best choice is to join the Restoration Army, but if they go there, they will definitely be discovered by the Qu Army. Lord Cao, do you think the Qu Army will allow the Restoration Army to grow?" Shi Xuanying put down the teacup and said slowly, "The more people they have, the faster they will die. I think they will understand this truth. What do you think?"

County Magistrate Cao immediately understood what she meant: "I know about this and will immediately send people to spread the news in the city."

"What does Lord Cao think of the Little Chen Kingdom?" Shi Xuanying suddenly asked.

A cold sweat instantly broke out on County Magistrate Cao's back - he was also once a citizen of the Small Chen Kingdom.

He pondered over it again and again in his mind before saying, "A weak backbone amidst the splendid things."

The Xiao Chen Kingdom is in an excellent location, with a mild climate, vast fertile farmland, and the best grains. Such excellent conditions can feed more people and troops. In the early years, the Qu Kingdom was like a mad dog, fighting east and west. The Xiao Chen Kingdom was extremely vigilant. It had a time when its army was strong, but after swallowing up the surrounding small countries, the Qu Kingdom did not make any moves for many years.

Comfort has eroded their will and long since made them lose their former bravery. From the emperor to the court officials, they are all still dreaming of having hundreds of thousands of elite troops under their command and no one dares to offend them.
