"Why did you tell me this?" Yi Niang didn't believe Zhao Jin. She assassinated Zhao Jin again last night and had someone set him on fire. But the next day, the other party was so kind as to come and tip off Zhao Jin?
Zhao Jin raised his eyelids slightly, "I just feel that although you are at fault, you will not end up like this."
"Were we at fault?" Yi Niang laughed out loud as if she heard something extremely ridiculous.
"Is it our fault that we were forced to become bandits?" After laughing, the lady in clothes said with a cold expression and gritted her teeth.
Zhao Jin sighed slightly, "Of course it's not your fault that you turned into a bandit. It's the fault of those corrupt officials."
"But are all the people in Wuyang Village forced to do anything?"
"I told you last night, you set fire to the inn? Didn't you do anything wrong? There are so many innocent people inside."
The lady in clothes turned her head, her jaw clenched tightly.
"The resentment, anger, and hatred in your hearts are all normal. I can understand it, but you should not inflict these on innocent people."
"Not to mention other things, you claim to rob the rich and give to the poor, but do all the people you robbed really deserve this unreasonable disaster?"
"They are all profiteers, why shouldn't they?!" Yi Niang said angrily: "Since they got all this money from the people, what's wrong with letting them spit out some of it now?"
Zhao Jin's voice was very calm, with a hint of coldness, "Are they all profiteers? Not one of them has ever built roads and bridges for the people, and has never done any bad things?"
"When I first came to Zhoucheng, I was robbed by your second boss. Do I deserve it? Let me ask you, where do I deserve to be?"
"You!" Yi Niang opened her mouth and gritted her teeth tightly, but she had to admit that Zhao Jin was not wrong.
Zhao Jin did not dwell on this topic any more. Wu Yang Village had been operating according to this principle for a long time, and it was not like he could make them change with just a few words.
He turned around and said: "I have already said that I do not agree with your actions, but you are not guilty of this."
"But why should I believe you?" Yi Niang said with complicated emotions, her face still stubborn.
Zhao Jin chuckled, "It's up to you to believe it or not, I just want to have a clear conscience."
After saying this, Zhao Jin held down the horse's back, exerted force on his legs, and mounted the horse neatly.
He looked down at the lady wearing clothes and said, "With that said, I'm leaving."
As soon as he tightened the reins, Zhao Jin did not look at Yi Niang again and rode directly back to Zhoucheng.
The lady stood there for a long time before leaving.
When Zhao Jin returned to the room, the note was still pressed on the desk and no one had touched it.
He called Yang Xu over and gave a few instructions in a low voice.
Immediately afterwards, I heard a message from outside, "The county magistrate is here."
Zhao Jin raised his eyebrows slightly, and first said to Yang Xu, "Go ahead." Then he asked the county magistrate to come up.
When Jun Cheng came up, he happened to meet Yang Xu coming downstairs and smiled at Yang Xu.
Yang Xu nodded slightly and left.
This made Jun Cheng's face turn green for a moment, and his eyes suddenly darkened.
"Lord Jun Cheng."
When he saw Zhao Jin, Jun Cheng's face lit up with a smile again, "Hahaha, Mr. Ning."
Zhao Jin claims his surname is Ning.
After all, the surname Zhao is a national surname, which is too sensitive and attracts attention.
"Why are you here, Master Jun Cheng? But what's the important matter?" Zhao Jin's lips were slightly curved, and his attitude was just right, neither enthusiastic nor cold.
Jun Cheng felt quite satisfied, and the smile on his face was sincere, "I'm here, I do have something to do."
After he finished speaking, he did not continue speaking, but waited for Zhao Jin to ask questions, and even stood still.
Zhao Jin was heartbroken.
"Jun Cheng, why don't you sit down and talk?"
The county magistrate then sat down in compliance with Zhao Jin's wishes and said slowly: "It's like this. The government plans to suppress the bandits in the near future."
While speaking, Jun Cheng kept staring at Zhao Jin, paying attention to the expression on his face.
Zhao Jin's face showed just the right amount of surprise.
"So good!"
"Keeping banditry alive will ultimately be bad for the people. It's like hanging a knife over the city's head, making people panic."
The county magistrate cursed in his heart, those common people would not feel bad, they were the ones who would be chopped down by the knife.
"That's right. The Sheriff has been very worried." It doesn't matter what he thinks in his heart, the Sheriff showed an expression of approval on his face.
"In order to avoid the plan of this bandit suppression being leaked again, the Sheriff intends to do it secretly."
Zhao Jin appropriately showed some hesitation and fear, "Then, I wonder why Lord Jun Cheng told me?"
"Master Ning's accompanying subordinates are highly skilled in martial arts. To avoid accidents, we hope that Master Ning can help us." Only then did the Jun Cheng tell us the main purpose of coming.
As if he was afraid that Zhao Jin would not agree, the county magistrate also specifically mentioned the fire last night, "Last night, those bandits were so rampant that they set fires and even came to assassinate me. I'm afraid they already have a grudge against you."
Zhao Jin's smile was a little weak, and Jun Cheng was both persuading and threatening.
The people in Wuyang Village already hate him, and if they don't suppress the bandits, they will face threats.
In this case, it is indeed generally agreed that it is obviously better to work with the government to suppress the bandits than to deal with the bandits' revenge alone.
The people in the government office are really good at calculating things.
"How? What do you think, Mr. Ning?"
Zhao Jin refused, "Master Jun Cheng, it's not that I don't want to help, it's just that there is an emergency in Yunzhou. Now we are in a hurry to return to Yunzhou, and we will leave tomorrow."
Jun Cheng's face suddenly darkened, "So, Mr. Ning is unwilling to help?"
"I'm sorry, I'm really helpless."
The Jun Cheng finally threw up his sleeves and left. Before leaving, he even threatened: "Master Ning has already offended Wu Yang Village, will he still offend the government office?"
Zhao Jin sneered, otherwise, would he become a spearman for them?
Early the next morning, something unexpected happened.
"Everyone, get out of the way, the government will arrest you!"
There was a lot of noise in the inn, and the shopkeeper watched in horror as a large number of government officials rushed in and ran all the way to the second floor.
Zhao Jin had just finished washing when he heard the noise.
He frowned and opened the door. Just in time, the government official came to his room.
When the leading catcher saw Zhao Jin, he lowered his head and glanced at the portrait in his hand. His face turned cold, he took a step back and waved his hand forward.
"That's him! Take it!"
Zhao Jin's eyes were sharp, and he glanced at the government guards who were escorting him and the head catcher in front of him, and his voice was cold, "What does this mean?"
"What do you mean?" the catcher snorted coldly, "Ning Jin colluded with the bandits in Wuyang Village to murder the people, and we were ordered to come and arrest them!"
Zhao Jin laughed angrily, "Collusion? Not long ago, I captured the second boss of Wuyang Village and gave it to the county governor. Your government office even praised it, but in the blink of an eye, it turned out that I was colluding with the bandits?"
"Who knows if you are deliberately using this to gain the trust of the county governor! Take it away!"
"Master!" Yang Xu and others rushed over and rushed to block Zhao Jin.
Jin Quan was clearly trembling with fear. He didn't even dare to look at the Yamen Guard's sword, but he still refused to move away.
