Yuchi Xi waved his hand. "This is the money you earned through your own labor. It's yours. You don't have to be grateful to me."

They had also tried to recover the money themselves, and she just gave them a push.

The yamen runner who nearly committed suicide knelt down before Yuchi Xi. Fortunately, Jing Huaian was quicker and supported him, preventing him from kneeling down. "Our little princess doesn't like to see people kneeling."

"Don't kneel anymore. If you are truly grateful to Her Royal Highness, just think about it in your heart every day and hope that Her Royal Highness will get better and better. That will be enough."

Yuchi Xi nodded quickly, "Yes, yes, Brother Jing is right. If you really want to thank me, just keep repeating to yourself, 'The little princess will definitely get better and better, and will definitely make a fortune!' That'll be all!"

Hehehehe, she doesn’t mind having too much money!

"Yes!" The yamen runners all had tears in their eyes and nodded excitedly, "We must think about it every day!"

Yuchi Xi asked them to go back first.

She looked at the county magistrate, who smiled ingratiatingly and wiped the sweat from his forehead with a handkerchief. "Little Princess, look..."

"I have already returned the monthly salary to them..."

"Look at my black hat."

"Take it off!" Yuchi Xi raised an eyebrow, "You definitely can't continue to be the county magistrate."

The county magistrate's face suddenly fell. He felt aggrieved. "Are you really not going to give me a chance?"

"I'm not bad to the people!"

The county magistrate felt wronged. He just wanted to make some money. What did he do wrong?

Yuchi Xi, "Although you are good to the people, you are too bad to your subordinates!"

"Have you ever thought about this? If you don't give them the money, what will they do if they encounter an emergency? Just like the family of the yamen runner, what if they fall ill?"

"This disease will only get worse if you delay it!"

"What if it's someone who's directly seriously ill? You'd really be indirectly killing someone!"

"Do you think I'll have to wait until then to take off your official hat?"

"Being a county magistrate doesn't just have to be kind to the people; you also have to be considerate to your subordinates. This position isn't easy to hold."

"If you can't do it, let someone who can do it!"

There is no room for negotiation on this matter!

The county magistrate pursed his lips and finally took off the black hat on his head.

He reached out to take off his official uniform, but seeing so many people watching, he asked, "Can I go back to the palace to take it off?"

He was quite embarrassed.
