Is there anyone in the world more miserable than them?
After Mu Ruyue left the mountain, a fire burned the entire mountain clean. The Wang brothers were reluctant to see the mountain where they had lived for more than ten years, so they led all the brothers in the bandit group to follow Mu Ruyue and leave here...
In Nanyang County, the outside of the County Governor's Mansion was covered with a layer of dust. The door plaque was broken into two pieces and fell to the ground. There were also several footprints on it. It looked so shabby and backward.
"Wang Hai, go knock on the door."
Mu Ruyue frowned.
There should be people living in the county governor's mansion, so why is it in such a dilapidated state?
"Okay, boss."
Wang Hai responded respectfully, then walked to the door and knocked twice. After a long time, an impatient voice came from inside.
"Who is it?"
squeak!
The dilapidated wooden door was opened, and immediately an old figure walked out and looked at the people outside the door in confusion.
“You are…”
"The new county governor!"
"What?"
The old man was startled for a moment, and looked at Mu Ruyue suspiciously: "Are you the current county chief? That's not right. Every time someone takes office, they are either the elders of the academy or students who are about to graduate. You look too young, how can you be the current county chief?"
"Here is the token. You can take it and examine it yourself."
Mu Ruyue raised her hand, and a jade token fell into her palm.
The old man opened his eyes and scanned the token, then nodded: "Yes, this is indeed the token of the academy. It seems that you are really the county magistrate."
“Can you tell me what happened here now? The county governor’s mansion has fallen into such a state!” Mu Ruyue raised her eyebrows and asked lightly.
The old man smiled bitterly, "You don't know, Lord County Magistrate, the North Wind Plain is already very powerful, so it cannot tolerate outside forces. They are even more unwilling to admit that the North Wind Plain is the territory of the seminary! Therefore, every county magistrate who comes here will be oppressed by all forces, and the previous one was even murdered by them! So since then, no one is willing to take the position. I wanted to leave after a while, but I didn't expect the academy to notify me that another person would come to serve as county magistrate."
At this point, the old man paused and said, "County Governor, I still advise you to leave as soon as possible and stay out of this mess. There are too many strong people in the North Wind Plain, otherwise the senior leaders of the academy would have come forward. You can only have the same fate as the previous ones if you come here, but you are so young and have a lot of time left. There is no need to waste it in this place."
Mu Ruyue's eyes darkened little by little. It seemed that the situation in the North Wind Plain was worse than she had imagined.
But that's the challenge, isn't it?
"Since I'm here, I won't leave." Mu Ruyue raised her eyes slightly and said lightly, "I want information about all the forces in Nanyang County."
"Why!"
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
The old man sighed heavily and shook his head with a wry smile.
In his opinion, Mu Ruyue was just young and hot-tempered. After a while, when she realized the difficulties and dangers of being a county chief, she would definitely give up...
"Sheriff, I have said what I need to say. Since you insist on staying here, I will fulfill my duties during your tenure. In addition, I am the steward of this sheriff's mansion, Kong Fan."
Mu Ruyue yawned and said calmly, "I'm tired. I'll go down and rest first. We'll talk about everything after I wake up..."
