In the Liuhe County government office, as Liu Guoan was thrown out, the other nine county magistrates were dumbfounded.
They really didn't expect that Su Cheng would actually dare to attack a county magistrate!
Of course, if Su Cheng could do something to Liu Guoan, he would also dare to do something to them!
For a moment, everyone looked at each other in bewilderment.
At this time, Liu Guoan, who was thrown out, was furious and roared: "Su Cheng, you... how dare you do this to this county!"
Su Cheng was not afraid at all. He looked up at Liu Guoan outside the county government office and said calmly: "If you don't accept it, can you do it again?"
"This is our Liuhe County. If you dare to act recklessly here, I will throw you out."
"Hmph, if you dare to attack a marquis, it seems that you, Mr. Liu, really have the heart of a bear but the courage of a leopard!"
As soon as the word "Master Hou" came out, Liu Guoan's expression changed drastically.
The title of Marquis Su Cheng is hereditary and is awarded by the emperor.
Being disrespectful to Su Cheng can be said to be disrespectful to the emperor.
It would be okay if Liu Guoan was a commoner, but he was a county magistrate and wanted to hang out in the officialdom.
Once this matter gets out, who will dare to promote him in the future?
When the other nine county magistrates heard this, they immediately reacted.
Yes, Su Cheng has a title.
Fortunately, he didn't take action just now, otherwise he would definitely end up like Liu Guoan.
At this moment, they were glad that they didn't stand out.
But Liu Guoan refused to accept it!
Why would so many people do something to themselves?
You, Su Cheng, are clearly bullying Liu Guoan!
But it happened that this bastard Su Cheng also had the title of Marquis, and there was nothing he could do against him.
Frustrated!
It’s so frustrating!
"Even if you are a marquis, you can't do this to a court official!"
Liu Guoan blushed and stared at Su Cheng. The anger in his heart was so intense that he was about to explode!
"Haha, you also know that you are an official of the imperial court!"
Su Cheng sneered: "But have you ever seen a court official tearing up documents in public?"
"If you give up today, forget it. If you don't give up, I might go to the magistrate's place."
"I don't know if the letter from the prefect is still useful. Have you forgotten what the prefect said?"
The prefect of Jiangzhou had previously replied to a letter, and Su Cheng showed it to these people.
The letter made it very clear that other counties should try their best to cooperate with Liuhe County in resettling the victims!
Now Liuhe County has rented fields to these victims. If they return, it will be tantamount to disobeying the prefect.
These people may not listen to Su Cheng, or they may not care about Su Cheng, an untitled marquis, but they do not dare to offend their immediate superiors.
Once they heard that Su Cheng had brought out the letter from the Jiangzhou prefect, all the county magistrates reacted.
This is one link after another!
They had been surprised before that Su Cheng had managed to get a letter from the Jiangzhou prefect.
Thinking about it now, Su Cheng had already laid the trap and was waiting for them to get inside.
Now Su Cheng has in his hands the documents signed by them and stamped with the official seal, as well as a letter from the Jiangzhou prefect.
Plus Su Ben’s identity as a marquis!
They had no way to deal with this matter and could only watch their fields being rented out.
"You...you are so cruel!"
Liu Guoan, who knew he had been fooled, had a cold look on his face.
This time, he was defeated.
"Haha, don't say I am ruthless, even if I am ruthless, I can't hate you all!"
Su Cheng said calmly: "If you hadn't rushed all the victims to our Liuhe County, I wouldn't have made such a move!"
"Now, you have two choices!"
"Either leave now, I can pretend that nothing happened!"
"Either you and I just go to the end, and we go to the magistrate's place together!"
Su Cheng didn't feel good about dealing with this group of people.
Even his name has changed.
Revealing the identity of the Marquis also lets these people know that Su Cheng is not someone to be trifled with.
Ever since these people deliberately let disaster victims come to Liuhe County, he has not had a good impression of this group of people.
The other party's unkindness came first, and Su Cheng's unrighteousness came last. He can reason with others no matter where he goes.
You can't just deal with this group of people!
If you don't show them some color, they really think they are easy to bully.
Upon hearing this, the faces of all the county magistrates changed greatly, and they all looked at each other.
How dare they bring this matter to the prefect!
If they really did this, wouldn't it be a disguised admission that they deliberately brought the victims to Liuhe County?
"This... why is Mr. Su so aggressive? I'll just leave later."
"Yes, we are here today just for negotiation. Since Lord Su does not agree, we will leave now."
"Just pretend I've never been here!"
The county magistrates were not fools either. After saying this, they walked out without wanting to stay for a moment.
I have already lost enough face today, and if I continue to stay, I will only lose more face.
In this way, this group of people came in high spirits and left dejectedly.
However, Su Cheng looked at the backs of the group of people leaving, with a look of contemplation in his eyes.
There was even a look of solemnity on his face, and he was not complacent because of the other party's departure.
At this time, the group of county magistrates left the county government but did not leave individually. Instead, they gathered in an open space outside the county town at Liu Guoan's call.
The guards led the horses to graze at a distance, while also preventing others from eavesdropping.
"Master Liu asked me to come here, why?"
"Yes, what happened today was all in vain!"
"Well, if I had known this, I might as well have dealt with the autumn plowing in the county."
"That's right, now that we have the documents in his hands, there's absolutely nothing we can do against him."
Everyone sighed, looking like they shouldn't be here.
But Liu Guoan sneered: "Everyone, are you really willing to give up your land to him like this?"
"If he uses these fields to increase grain production, he might be promoted."
"Once he is promoted, given our grudges with him, sooner or later he will take revenge."
Of course, this matter cannot be left alone!
Once Liuhe County has a bumper harvest, if we compare the grain output of several of their counties, will they still have the nerve to stay in the officialdom?
The other county magistrates are all smart people, how could they not understand the meaning of Liu Guoan's words.
"But he has documents in his hand!"
"Yes, we have fallen into a trap and there is no way we can deal with this."
"Does Master Liu have a clever plan?"
"Looking at what Mr. Liu means, does he still want to fight with him?"
Liu Guoan laughed sinisterly: "Of course, since I have called you all here, I naturally have a plan."
"Although we can't take back the land, we can't harvest the rice that he planted."
Afterwards, Liu Guoan whispered a few words to everyone around him.
"Hahahaha, what a brilliant idea, what a brilliant idea!"
"This is a good plan. The county will go back and make arrangements right away!"
"Master Liu is still more skilled."
"Without further ado, this county will also go back and deal with this matter."
It can be seen that Liu Guoan's plan makes them very satisfied.
A conspiracy against Su Cheng and Liang began!
At this time, Shen Youwei learned that ten county magistrates were angrily looking for Su Cheng, and she was so anxious that she rushed to the county government office!
