Zheng Yunzhi smiled and said, "Then I'll invite you to see me, I want to see who he is."

Uncle Huai nodded, bowed and retreated. Within a moment, he brought the three people outside the door.

"The master is inside, please three of you."

He was alone outside the door, helping the three of them open the door, and asked them to go in and close the door.

Li Mingyi and Li Xiucai were Sun Xiucai's classmates. Those who followed him were Sun Xiucai and Ying Yi.

When he entered the door, Li Mingyi and Sun Xiucai said "My County Master's Parents" and bowed. Ying Yi stood up straight and bowed. It has been more than half a year since he came to this era, and Ying Yi has adapted to some of the usual etiquettes between people. He is not very happy to bow down. Even in front of this county master, he has never bowed down.

Zheng Yunzhi's eyes swept over the two scholars and finally fell on the tall and burly Ying Yi.

When he saw this, he felt that this man named Angzang had a different temperament. Standing there, he was like a city wall, thick and steady, as if nothing could make him bow down. He was just a commoner, but when facing him, the county magistrate, he did not have the humility he should have, but instead felt a sense of equality.

Ying Yi himself didn't feel anything.

The so-called equality is not based on words, and behavior cannot express anything. The key is to have the ability to be equal to others. Only by thinking that you have the ability can you feel that you can be equal to others. Otherwise, if you don’t have the ability, no matter how you feel, no matter how you jump up and down, it will be in vain.

Even hundreds of years later, the equality that is always spoken of is just a self-comfort for the common people. Not to mention facing the richest man in the world, the head of state, even the richest man in a town, civil servants, and ordinary people all consciously lower their heads in front of them, and they should be flattered and flattered.

"sit."

Zheng Yunzhi spoke concisely, waited for the three of them to sit down, and said, "I wonder what the two students in the vassal state have to meet with this county?"

Although he felt that Ying Yi was an extraordinary person, he was a villain after all and didn't really care much.

Li Xiucai said: "The county is indeed a big deal, but for details, I also have to ask the students' classmates and this Ying Yi and Ying Zhuang Shi."

"Oh?" Zheng Yunzhi looked at Sun Xiucai.

Sun Xiucai said: "If you go back to the county master, Brother Ying knows the most about this."

Ying Yi then said: "I wonder if the county lord is about to arrive in Ye County?"

Ying Yi was not long-winded and pointed his words at the core.

When Zheng Yunzhi heard this, her body tensed for a moment, her expression was solemn, and her eyes were instantly sharp: "How do you know that there is military pay to arrive in Ye County?!"

No acknowledgment, but no denial.

Ying Yi said: "Listen to me."

Then he told the story of Mr. Yuan, Hao Yaoqi, and the thief one by one.

"I am from Xiaowangzhuang and I am the same hometown as Sun Xiucai. A few days ago, I went to hunt in the mountains, but I never thought that a tiger would slaughter the villagers of Xiaowangzhuang. After I went down the mountain, I followed it overnight to seek a tiger to take revenge... I came to Ye County on the day and entered the city at night to find Sun Xiucai. I originally planned to go to the north early this morning to see if I could find a chance to kill a tiger, but when I left Xishan Tower, I accidentally heard the news."

Ying Yi started from the beginning in an orderly manner: "At that time, there was only one table of people serving food in the lobby of Xishan Tower. I was very smart and quick-witted. I heard them say military pay from western Jiangxi, and what about the 'King of Breaking', and so on. I felt that they were not a good way. I was irreconcilable with the thieves. My elder brother, sister-in-law, and niece Xiaoya all died at the hands of the thieves. When I heard this news, how could I let it go? When I waited for them to come out and followed them secretly, I never thought that they had opened a hole under the city wall in a remote place in the north of the city!"

Speaking of this, Ying Yi looked at Zheng Yunzhi who was changing color: "A wise man will have a mistake in his mind. The county magistrate cannot listen to all directions and observe the six directions. Some omissions are inevitable."

Zheng Yunzhi sighed and heard Ying Yi say, "Five people left the cave, four people. I grabbed the last one and asked the news from him."

"Please come quickly!" Zheng Yunzhi's heart was beating wildly.

Ying Yi said: "The news of military salaries in western Ganzhou was passed on to the thief by the man surnamed Yuan, who disguised as a man. I don't know how the court kept it secret, but it was broken in the hands of a female person, which was really ridiculous."

Zheng Yunzhi was awkward.

Ying Yi said: "This woman seemed determined to surrender to the thief, and made a name for her military pay. But the one who contacted her was Hao Yaoqi, the thief general under the thief. The three old thieves were Hao Yaoqi's subordinates. They used some means to sneak into the city and opened a hole in the city wall. When the military pay came, Hao Yaoqi's army came to the city and surrounded her, and then joined forces inside and outside to eat."

Zheng Yunzhi burst into cold sweat when she heard this, and she felt extremely grateful.

He hurriedly said, "Where is the old thief that the hero has held?"

Ying Yi said: "I am still living in Xishan, in the room of Sun Xiucai. The county lord can ask someone to mention it immediately. In addition, the county lord should also make an idea as soon as possible how to deal with the hole under the walls of the north city. If you want to be stable, then block the hole. If you want to take a chance, keep the hole. When the thief general Hao Yaoqi is proud, he will make a ruthless move."

Zheng Yunzhi didn't immediately make any decisions and called the old servant guarding outside the door in: "Uncle Huai, ask Xiaowu to take people to Xishanju immediately to bring them. In addition, go and see the cave in the north of the city, don't fill it in first."

"Yes, Master." Uncle Huai didn't dare to neglect and was about to walk out in a hurry.

Ying Yi reminded him at this time: "I didn't ask if there were any thieves in the city. When the old man went to get people, it would be better not to speak out, so as not to alarm the snake."

When Zheng Yunzhi heard this, she thought it was exactly the case and hurriedly told her.

Uncle Huai said, "Don't worry, lord."

When Uncle Huai left, Zheng Yunzhi didn't care about the power of the county officials and said gratefully: "Mr. Ying is a model for his righteousness. If there is no Mr. Ying, there will be no big things here!"

Ying Yi shook his head: "My husband is so respectful to the county. My enemies with the thieves and the waters of the three rivers cannot be washed clean. If the thieves can suffer a great loss, I will be willing to do anything."

Zheng Yunzhi showed appreciation, and his heart turned around and said with a smile: "Mr. Ying is righteous in his heart, why not serve the country and the people? The thieves are powerful, and it is difficult for Ying Zhuang to take revenge alone. Now that the court has suppressed the thieves again, it is a great opportunity. There is a shortage of 100 households in the county, why not take responsibility?"

But it was recruited.

Ying Yi had no intention of becoming an official, but if he had not tied up a boat with Zheng Yunzhi, it would be difficult to participate in the subsequent affairs. He had discussed with Sun Xiucai that if Zheng Yunzhi recruited him, he would agree temporarily and wait until the matter was completed before he would do his best.

So Ying Yi hesitated and said, "I wanted to revenge the lives of more than a hundred people in my Xiaowangzhuang. I planned to revenge and kill a tiger. I was chasing him before, which was the best opportunity. But I was afraid of implicating the tyrants, so I let a tiger escape. Now a tiger is heading north and joining the thieves. It is difficult to kill him again. The county lord has a good intention. I am a husband and I don't know any righteousness in the world. As long as I can avenge my elder brother, sister-in-law, niece and fellow villagers, I am willing."
