"Leave it to the county magistrate for investigation"

"But when we get to the county magistrate, how can we dare to investigate?"

"The person who made the complaint will also be given a beating."

"So later on, I gradually didn’t dare to file a complaint anymore."

"And many people couldn't afford the high land taxes, so they were kicked out of their houses."

"With nowhere to go but to wander the streets."

Zhou Cheng nodded, and probably understood what was going on.

It seems that either the county magistrate and this aristocratic family are colluding with each other.

Or the county magistrate is weak and dare not provoke them.

Thinking of this, Zhou Cheng ordered someone to take it again Two pieces of meat and a few steamed buns.

He handed them to the homeless man and said,"Thank you, your words are very useful.""

"You need to find a place to rest first. It won’t take a few days."

"Naturally, someone will arrange for you to return to your own fields."

The tramp looked at the food in his hand in surprise.

Zhengxiang said something.

But he saw Zhou Cheng and others getting on their horses and heading towards the city gate without hesitation.

Li Er took the two broken pieces in his hand. He threw the silver to the homeless man and set off quickly.

On the road, he saw a tea stall selling some cakes.

Zhou Chenggong stopped his horse. He went into the store and found a seat to sit down.

He ordered some cakes and tea. After giving another small amount of silver,

Zhou Cheng got the same explanation as the tramp just now.

His face was obviously very ugly at this moment.

When Li Er saw his master's expression, he knew that he must be angry too.

So he didn't dare to say anything more. Talk.

Immediately, he took the initiative to pick up the teapot and pour tea for Zhou Cheng.

Zhou Cheng suddenly said to the entourage on the side:"Take my token and arrange for General Zhao to send someone over.""

"Because then many people will be needed to resettle these homeless people."

"I definitely don't have time to waste here"

"So he can only rely on his soldiers to do this job."

The attendant holding Zhou Cheng's token immediately saluted, then turned around and mounted his horse to return to Runan via the original route.

Then, Li Er asked:"Lord, what should we do in a while?

Zhou Cheng took a sip of tea and stood up with a cold face:"Let's go into the city and have a look.""

With that said, he continued to mount his horse and entered the city gate with his entourage.

When entering, Zhou Cheng also found that the city gate was full of smoke.

There were many beggars and homeless people on both sides of the road.

Zhou Cheng looked at This made him very angry.

He went directly to the address that he had asked the tea shop owner before.

He galloped over.

After a while, Zhou Cheng came to the aristocratic family that the homeless man and the tea shop owner mentioned. At the entrance of the courtyard, two big words"Ruan Mansion" were written on the door.

Zhou Cheng looked at the courtyard, and his face became more and more ugly. When

Li Er saw Zhou Cheng's appearance, he hurriedly He just asked:"Master, do you need me to knock on the door?"

Zhou Cheng nodded and said:"Go ahead, don't be polite to them, don't expose our identities for the time being."

"I want to see what kind of trick they are playing"

"yes!"After receiving Zhou Cheng's affirmation, Li Er jumped off the horse and walked to the door of the Ruan Mansion Courtyard.

The two guards at the door immediately stepped forward to stop him:"Stop! What to do?"

Seeing these two people actually stopping him, Li Er sneered and said:"You're looking for someone!"

"Who to look for? Is there any famous post?"The two guards had already seen Zhou Cheng and others behind them.

Seeing that these people were carrying horses, they must not be ordinary people.

So their tone was quite polite.

Li Er scolded:"What's wrong with the famous post? Post it, let your master come out quickly!"

"If my young master is kept waiting impatiently, I will demolish your whole yard!"

"What a loud tone! Where did the bastard come from and come here to run wild!"

The two guards were very angry when they saw Li Er, and they were obviously looking for trouble.

So they stopped being polite and directly hit Li Er with their weapons.

However, this Li Er was personally chosen by Zhou Cheng after all. He is an elite man.

In terms of personal strength, ordinary bandit leaders cannot defeat him.

Not to mention the two guard guards who are guarding the door.

They are knocked to the ground by him in just two moves..

Lying on the ground and wailing.

Seeing that the two guards were dealt with,

Li Er returned directly to the street, climbed in from the yard, and opened the yard gate from the inside.

"Be bold! Where did the little thief come from, he dared to break into the yard in broad daylight."

I saw a group of people wearing similar clothes to the guards running in.

A leader in the middle, holding a big knife, shouted at Li Er.

Li Er said in a deep voice:"Stop talking nonsense, call your master out quickly."

"Otherwise, don’t blame me for demolishing your yard"

"When you speak, you are not afraid of the wind blowing your tongue and tearing down our yard."

"Just you?"The leader looked at Li Er with a sneer on his face.

"Anyone who understands this situation should quickly kneel down and beg for mercy from grandpa."

"Grandpa, if I'm in a good mood, I can let you go today"

"Otherwise, I'm afraid you won't be able to get out of this door today."
