The people around were already wondering about Xie Ling's behavior. After she came out, everyone's eyes fell on her with curiosity and inquiry.
Xie Ling said loudly: "Everyone, this woman is a death row inmate! She also kidnapped a child who has no blood relationship with her. You can imagine her purpose!"
Having said that, he winked at Gu Wei.
The next words should be spoken by Gu Wei.
Gu Wei nodded slightly and continued Xie Ling's words with an ups and downs in his voice, which was powerful and shocking.
"Her purpose is to frame me and make everyone lose trust in me! I am from Shangjing, and I don't know much about Sinan's family situation. I also don't know much about the Feng family that this woman mentioned.
But no matter what grievances you have, you can go directly to the county government office and beat the drum to complain, or come directly to me in person! In the next three days, I will not handle paperwork, but will wait for you at the county government office. If you have grievances, speak up! "
After the words fell, there was silence for a moment, followed by cheers.
It is obviously a very simple sentence, but when it comes out of Gu Wei's mouth, it has the power to convince people.
The people of Sinan County looked at this handsome man standing in the crowd, their eyes full of expectation and trust.
It seems that we can already see the bright future of Sinan County.
A new official has three things to do when he takes office, and Gu Wei's words were also heard by some people in secret.
On the second floor attic not far from this street, a young man in purple was holding a folding fan, his eyes curled up, and he sneered, "Interesting, this new county magistrate is interesting. This can't stump him. And the county government office is open for three days? He is not afraid of anything."
His eyes turned to Xie Ling, and his gaze became full of interest, "That woman... is more interesting."
The man in white next to him raised his eyebrows and handed him a glass of wine, "Second Young Master Si, forget it. She is a married woman."
The purple-clothed young man turned around and sat down, took the warmed wine, took a sip, and said loudly: "I just admire the beauty, and I don't have any other intentions. Today's wine tastes mellow, but the aftertaste is a little light... Jiang Shaoqing, this fire is not strong enough."
Jiang Shaoqing silently added another piece of charcoal to the small stove in front of the table, and said without raising his head: "Do you think this is not enough to show your power?"
The man in purple tapped his palm with his folding fan, looking very casual and unrestrained, with a hint of coldness in his eyes.
"Not enough. I want him to know who is the master in Sinan County."
As soon as he finished speaking, the man in purple leaned against the railing, looking down lazily, his wide sleeves hanging in the air.
The newly appointed county magistrate was surrounded by the people, who were chattering to him.
The man was tall, with beautiful features, a gentle expression, and no trace of impatience. He responded to every word of the people in a gentle voice.
His wife was comforting the little boy who was taken captive. She took out something from her sleeve and made the trembling boy laugh out loud.
Behind them are their families.
Although they were exhausted from the journey, they all had extraordinary bearing and dignified manners. One could tell at a glance that they were raised in wealthy families. Even though the area was crowded with people from Sinan County, they could still be recognized at a glance.
Just as the young man in purple was stunned, the man surrounded by the people suddenly turned around and looked straight at the young man in purple with sharp eyes. His eyes were cold and full of danger.
The two looked at each other.
The purple-clothed young man felt cold under his feet at the threatening look, and the folding fan in his hand fell straight down, landing on the oil-paper shed set up by the street vendors below with a dull sound.
In his entire life, he had never seen anyone with eyes so terrifying and threatening. They almost scared him!
When the man saw the embarrassment of the young man in purple, he turned away calmly without any excessive emotion.
Downstairs, Xie Ling tugged at Gu Wei's sleeve, "What are you looking at?"
Gu Wei recalled the purple-clothed man near the attic and shook his head, "Nothing. It's getting late, we have to go."
When the leader of the soldiers heard what Gu Wei said, he immediately shouted, "People, the county magistrate has been traveling for such a long time and must be very tired. Everyone, please make way for us. If you have anything to say, please come to the county government office tomorrow."
As he spoke, several young soldiers around him began to evacuate the crowd.
The people also consciously made way for them and watched Gu Wei and his companions go away.
After walking around two streets, we arrived at the county magistrate's mansion.
The street ahead was quite busy, but the county magistrate's mansion was a bit desolate. The houses around it were uninhabited, with only a few cats running around in the bluestone alleys.
The leading soldier stopped and said, "Sir, this is the county magistrate's mansion. This is a deserted place with few people living nearby. A county magistrate's mansion cannot accommodate so many of your relatives. You can take a look at the houses around you."
Gu Wei nodded, "Okay."
The soldier bowed and said, "Then we will go back first. Sir, you should have a good rest."
After a pause, the soldier leader hesitantly leaned close to Gu Wei's ear and whispered, "Sir, the situation in Sinan County is quite complicated. I only know that the Si family and the Feng family that the woman mentioned are the biggest enemies. If you want to investigate, you can look in this direction."
After saying that, he took his men and ran away.
As a soldier leader, he must know something after being in Sinan for so many years.
But he couldn't tell Gu Wei directly.
Gu Wei secretly kept the Si family in mind.
On the other side, Jiangxue had already pushed open the door.
As soon as the door opened, a musty smell that seemed to have accumulated for decades hit the face, and everyone coughed violently.
What came into view next was a weed-covered courtyard, surrounded by piles of broken and rotten furniture, all crawling with ants.
