"They've gone too far!"
"Confiscating our things is one thing, but they even dared to chase us to our doorstep and arrest us!"
"Er Ya Zi, hurry up and go to the Zhechong Prefecture and tell our Lord that those sons of bitches from Chang'an have chased us to the village to arrest people!"
"Okay!"
After dismissing the messenger, Hu Delu immediately shouted at the idlers at the village entrance.
"Grab your weapons!"
"Let's fight these sons of bitches!"
Sanglin Zhechong Prefecture.
"My lord, something terrible has happened! High-ranking officials from Chang'an are arresting people from our village!"
"What?"
Why are they arresting people?
"I don't know, maybe it's because of the stall incident before?"
Li Jue was furious when he heard this. This damned Tang Dynasty, does it even allow people to live? It's one thing to not allow people to set up stalls, but why are they coming to arrest people?
When the surrounding soldiers saw their captain being bullied, they didn't even need Li Jue to persuade them; they all grabbed wooden sticks and followed him.
However, when they arrived at the village entrance in a huff, they found only an official in a red robe and two in green robes kneeling on the ground, bowing to the crowd of people.
Li Jue was completely dumbfounded by this scene. Wasn't it agreed that they would come to arrest people? Why were they kneeling before the people of his own village?
When Hu Delu saw his master arrive, he immediately ordered his men to make way for him.
Li Jue walked through the crowd to the three officials and asked them a question.
What are you doing?
"Aren't you here to arrest people?"
Upon seeing Li Jue dressed in official robes, Cui Renshi immediately guessed his identity.
"Are you Li Zhong from Xianyang County?"
When Cui Renshi arrived in Xianyang, he asked the magistrate of Xianyang County and only then did he realize who he had offended.
Don't underestimate this man from Xianyang County just because his title isn't high; he's someone even the princess wouldn't dare to offend!
I hadn't said a word, yet I had offended such a formidable person!
"yes!"
"Oh dear, it's like the flood washed away the Dragon King's temple! We're all family members, yet we don't recognize each other!"
Li Jue was completely stunned when he heard this.
"Who's family with you?"
"Your Excellency, you may not know this, but my mother's surname is Li. If you think about it, we should be considered family..."
"this……"
This was the first time Li Jue had ever heard of a family reunion like this, but he had no desire to acknowledge this relationship.
"Just say what you want to say. What exactly are you here for?"
"Magistrate, I've come to invite your farmers to return to Chang'an to set up their stalls again..."
"Are you asking my farmers to go back and set up their stalls?"
Upon hearing this, Li Jue felt uneasy. Could there be something fishy going on here?
"Thank you for your kindness!"
"But I've already made up my mind. From now on, our village will no longer engage in this small business. We absolutely cannot bring shame to the Tang Dynasty, nor can we tarnish the reputation of the Tang Emperor!"
