"Haha~~" Lin Xiqi laughed, "I originally thought that as long as he did not interfere with me and the affairs of Sandao County, I would not give less filial piety. Now it seems that these are unnecessary, so I will cancel the one million taels."

"Sir?" Chen Changjie frowned, "This will anger the county magistrate, it is inappropriate."

"If you are angry, you will be angry. I am still a little naive. These are all greedy and unfilled wolves. They will not look at me differently because I gave him one million taels, and I am afraid they will make more decisions about me. I hope they can get more benefits from me, and it is best to get rid of me." Lin Xiqi sneered, "For the next period of time, they may not care about us. They will have to wait until Houyuan's invasion of the border this time before focusing on us. This period of time is enough."

The next day, Lin Xiqi put on his official uniform under the help of the Su sisters.

"Sir, why don't you let the two girls go with you?" Chen Changjie asked.

"They were not very suitable for the past." Lin Xiqi shook his head and said, "Don't worry, after all, it's in Dunhuang City. Even if Yao Qile wants to deal with this official, he may not have started at this time, right?"

When Chen Changjie heard Lin Xiqi say this, he knew that it would be useless for him to persuade him. Of course, he felt that what Lin Xiqi said was also correct.

When he left the door, Chen Changjie had already prepared a sedan chair.

After Lin Xiqi entered the sedan chair, his eyebrows moved.

"These two girls." Lin Xiqi shook his head slightly in secret.

He had already felt that the two women were dressed as men and mixed in the yamen runners.

He didn't want to say it out loud, it was probably Chen Changjie's idea.

Yao Qile, in his fifties, is slightly fat, and now sits in the top position with a blank expression on his face, making people unable to see what he thinks.

Because of his age, Lin Xiqi sat in the last position in the hall.

"Everyone, you have recorded all the things I said just now?" Yao Qile asked.

Just now, he explained the possibility that Hou Yuan might invade the border in the near future and the seven magistrates present.

"I've written it down." The seven people said in unison.

"Just remember it. Next, when you go back, you must assist the garrison in the county and organize the people to resist the attack of Houyuan. At the same time, you must make various preparations for the people to take refuge. Now I have to give you a warning. If anyone protects the people this time is unfavorable, I will ask you for your questions." Yao Qile said coldly.

Guan Zhimiao and others complained one after another, it was nothing more than lack of money and people.

"Stop!" Yao Qile shouted, "Don't cry with me. No matter what method you use, I must minimize the losses. Otherwise, you can take away your black hat at the least, and you can take your lives at the worst. You can do whatever you want."

After saying this, everyone suddenly had nothing to say.

Among these people, Shen Nanyi, Hao Feng and Lin Xiqi did not cry much.

Shen Nanyi is the magistrate of Dunhuang City. He is in the county town and has the strongest defense around him, so you don’t have to worry too much.

Hao Feng knew that he didn't catch Yao Qile's eyes very much, so he didn't say much.

As for Lin Xiqi, he would not be like Guan Zhimiao and the others.

"I can give you an idea. When you go back, gather the major local sects and let them cooperate in defense. I believe there will be more and more opportunities." Yao Qile said.

"Sir, don't call those people in the world." Guan Zhimiao said, "Most people in the world forget their righteousness when they see profit. If there is no benefit, they will not stand out."

"That depends on your own ability." Yao Qile said lightly, "In this regard, Lord Lin of Sandao County has done a good job. This time, he joined forces with the Fuyun Sect to wipe out the robbers and villains who have occupied Sandao County for many years. If you have no experience, you can ask Lord Lin for advice. Lord Lin, do you think so?"

Lin Xiqi stood up from the chair and bowed to Yao Qile, saying, "When you say sir, the official is here to report this time."

"Oh, is that?" Yao Qile raised his eyebrows, "Then why not talk about it."

"Sir, I hope to report to you separately later." Lin Xiqi said.

"It's okay, there's nothing to say. Just say it here. Could it be that you can't trust the colleagues present?" Yao Qile said.

"Since that's the case, then Xiaguan will say it." Lin Xiqi said, "The three robbers of Wang Long, Wang Hu and Wang Bao from Sandao County have been doing evil for many years. After Xiaguan secretly investigated, they were all from the Wang family and had close relationships with the Wang family. It can be said that the Wang family is the real leader of Sandao County. Unfortunately, the county yamen has limited personnel and the yamen runners are not strong enough. Xiaguan just heard that the Fuyun Sect hates evil and hates these robbers to the core. Finally, Xiaguan sent people to contact Fuyun Sect and join forces with Fuyun Sect. That's all."

"No, not bad. Lord Lin eliminated the harm to the people as soon as he took office. It is worthy of commendation. I will report this matter to you." Yao Qile nodded and said.

"Mr. Lin, can you report anything else?" Guan Zhimiao stared at Lin Xiqi and said.

"No more." Lin Xiqi shook his head and said.

"No?" Guan Zhimiao's lips trembled and he sneered, "Mr. Lin seems to be a noble man who forgets things. The Wang family's business is famous in Dunhuang County, and is even more known as the richest man in Sandao County. Is the Wang family's wealth just gone? Lord Lin doesn't mention it at all, is it that you swallowed it?"

"Sir Guan, don't swear by others." Lin Xiqi shouted.

Liang Mo and the other two were not idle either, and they all questioned each other. They and Guan Zhimiao were considered to be wearing pairs of pants, so they naturally would not let Lin Xiqi go at this time.

"Mr. Lin, I have heard of the wealth of the Wang family." Shen Nanyi smiled and said.

Lin Xiqi glanced at the few people. Shen Nanyi was almost standing on Guan Zhimiao and the others. Hao Feng sat upright, looking at his nose without saying a word.

He looked at Yao Qile again, and saw Yao Qile staring at him tightly.

Lin Xiqi probably understood in his heart that this matter was mainly due to Yao Qile.

Perhaps he was instructing Guan Zhimiao and the others behind his back, and Guan Zhimiao and the others had an objection to him, so this matter happened naturally and put pressure on him at this time.

Unfortunately, they didn't know that they wouldn't care about them at all.

"Mr. County Magistrate, I don't want to say this, it's embarrassing to say it, but you all said that, so the officials can only tell the truth." Lin Xiqi said.

"Okay, then Lord Lin, let me talk. I believe that Lord Lin is honest and will not do such a thing." Yao Qile nodded, "It's just that all the adults have doubts in their hearts. I will give Lord Lin a chance to explain the matter clearly. This is better than being randomly suspicious."

Yao Qile was very dissatisfied with Lin Xiqi. The Wang family was destroyed and Lin Xiqi didn't give him any benefits. Wouldn't this take himself as the county magistrate seriously?

"Thank you for your protection," said Lin Xiqi, "This time I did search a lot of property from the Wang family."

"How many?" Yao Qile asked hurriedly.

When Yao Qile asked this, he found that he had lost his composure and coughed lightly, "I am a little curious, I'm curious. I believe everyone sitting here is like this, right?"

Guan Zhimiao and others naturally said it was.
