It was not until the people with Qi and blood were hoarse, but when they saw that the magistrate was still calm, they were a little calm.

One of them, who had been on crutches for years, waved his hand to calm down the manic crowd for a while. Because of the support of countless people, Wu Nan's eyes were full of undisguised hostility. "Are you the new magistrate, Mr. Wu?"

Wu Nan examined the old man for a moment, "yes."

"Is it you who put Su Da Shanren in prison?" The old man's eyes grew resentful.

"Yes." Wu Nan's voice did not fall, the crowd immediately broke out a tidal cry, "the great good people out."

"Give us back the good man!"

……

Even the old man couldn't control the angry crowd. Looking at Wu Nan, he said excitedly: "do you officers arrest people indiscriminately? Do you know how many good deeds Dashan people have done for us in Yingchuan? "

One stone stirred up a thousand waves, and the excited and angry faces made Wu Nan dizzy.

The old man began to lament the great achievements of the good people of Su Da. "That year, the flood flooded thousands of hectares of good land. If the good people of Su Da hadn't given us food rations and arranged places for us to live in, we would have been frozen to death and starved to death."

"Last autumn, my mother was seriously ill. If it wasn't for the money from a good man who asked me to call a doctor, how could my mother live today?" A young man began to cry as he spoke.

"How many people are drowned in Qiushui River every year? It's not Dashan who has paid for a bridge. Every time we go out, we don't know if we can come back?"

……

People, if you say anything to me, I'd like to list all the good deeds Su Cong has done for Yingchuan over the years. In a word, without Su Da's good people in Yingchuan, people will not have a good life.

Su Cong did a lot of good deeds. The old man looked at Wu Nan indignantly. "As we all know, the elder of Su family is not in good health. This time, when Su family married a daughter, it was all done by good people, inside and outside. They just married a young lady, and then you put people in prison. Are you not afraid of being punished?"

"Yes, it's wicked."

"I'm not afraid of harming morality?"

"The conscience of these officials has been eaten by dogs. How can they know whether they are virtuous or not?"

……

Wu Nan understood that it was useless to reason with this group of angry people. Although he was outnumbered, he was an official sent by the imperial court. He should not lose the bearing of the imperial court. He said coldly: "the imperial court has its own rules, and I will catch Su Cong, and I will have my own reason."

"The imperial court is your official, not ours." The old man called out in a loud voice, and immediately those who responded gathered, "we only know that without great good people, we would not have a good life."

"Yes, the imperial court doesn't care about our life and death. Don't they even care about our good people? Is there a way for us ordinary people to live in this world? "

Today, Wu Nan really understood the saying that it's hard to be offended by public anger. It can be seen from the intentions of the people behind the plot.

Just when Wu Nan was surrounded, a small yamen servant squeezed in. He told Wu Nan that the people in a rage had found the place of the Yamen prison, and now they were blocked by the Yamen servants. But if they didn't think of a way, it would be too late to rush in.
