I am happy to be a mother in a famine year, I have a system to farm the land

The guard also knew this, especially knowing that all the magical medicines in Jishi Hall were made by Zhu Qiuqi, so he did not dare to underestimate Zhu Qiuqi anymore.

"Thank you, Your Highness."

The cool taste made the guard couldn't help but squint his eyes, and he took a long breath before taking a breath.

"Tomorrow, the king will go to the county government office in person. I want to see what kind of trouble those people can cause."

Ever since the county magistrate was imprisoned by King Ling, I don't know if someone was behind the arrangement. Almost every day, people came to the county government office to cause trouble.

But these people seem to be ordinary people. King Ling has not found any evidence yet, so he can only tolerate them.

He was irritated before because of these people. Now that he saw Zhu Qiuqi's pills, he suddenly thought of what Zhu Qiuqi said before.

"Some people are not worth saving, nor are they worthy of sympathy. Now I think this makes sense."

The guard didn't understand why his master suddenly said such words, but his loyalty to his master would not change.

Early the next morning, as soon as King Ling sat down in the county government office, he heard the sound of drumming outside the door.

In the past, King Ling would be extremely irritable when he heard the sound of drums, but today he was looking at the door with leisurely time, as if waiting for something exciting.

"Your Majesty..."

"Invite people from outside in..."

The yamen servants in the county government office had already been replaced by guards. After hearing King Ling's order, the guards immediately brought in the people from outside.

The guard originally thought that it was the troublemaker again today, but when he saw the person outside the door, the guard was stunned for a moment.

"Are you here to report to the official?"

The people who had gathered together to play drums just now knelt down when they heard the gate of the county government office opened and saw the guards inside.

"Yes, we are here to report to the official, asking the official to help us, and asking the official to make the decision for us."

The guard was startled by this sudden action.

In the past few days, everyone who came to the county government to cause trouble had been wearing arrogant clothes. Now seeing such a group of common people, the guards quickly helped them up.

He intuitively felt that something was not right about what happened today, so he quickly said: "You guys wait here for a moment, I will report it right away."

King Ling saw that the guards did not bring the person in directly today, but came back alone, and there seemed to be something wrong with his expression.

Prince Ling put down the tea cup in his hand, "What happened?"

"Your Majesty, a group of people came outside the door to report."

Prince Ling nodded, "Didn't I ask you to bring people in?"

The guard seemed a little embarrassed. He hesitated for a moment, and then said: "Your Highness, I feel that those people are not the people who came to make trouble in the past. They are really people who came to report to the official."

King Ling was stunned, he didn't expect the guard to say that.

"Oh? The person who reported it to the official? What happened?"

"My subordinates haven't had time to ask, but they said they wanted to help, and some of them were seriously injured. I didn't dare to let people in rashly."

When King Ling heard this, his brows furrowed involuntarily.

After a moment of silence, he said: "Bring people in."

Immediately after King Ling's words fell, the guard who was still serving as a servant suddenly looked stern, and his hand subconsciously placed on the long sword at his waist.

When more than a dozen people were brought to court, they looked obviously nervous.

But these people tightly surrounded an old man among them, with a vague protective posture.

After seeing the actions of these people, King Ling couldn't help but narrowed his eyes.

These people looked like ordinary people. Looking at their movements and the fear in their eyes, they were afraid that something had happened.

"Who is here? Why do you have to beat the drum to report to the official?"

Hearing King Ling's voice, the old man surrounded by everyone knelt down quickly.

"Sir, we are here to redress our grievances. Please make the decision for us and seek justice."

Seeing this, the others quickly knelt down.

King Ling saw that the injuries on several of them were not caused by ordinary instruments, but by swords, which gave him a bad premonition.

He could tell that these people were indeed ordinary people.

Just by looking at their hands, the way they walked, and even their eyes, Prince Ling could tell that such people were indeed ordinary farm men.

But how could these people be injured by swords?

After hearing Prince Ling's question, the old man at the head tremblingly took out a blood book from his arms.

"Sir, this is our petition, please make the decision."

The old man burst into tears, knocked his head heavily on the ground, and his eyes dropped.

But perhaps due to lack of physical strength, the old man fainted the next moment.

The person kneeling next to him was startled, "Village Chief!"

When King Ling saw this, his face couldn't help but darken.

"Come here, go to Jishi Hall and ask for a doctor!"

King Ling handed his token to his bodyguard and asked the bodyguard to invite him in person.

Seeing the dirty and chapped lips of the others, King Ling couldn't help but narrowed his eyes.

"Go get them some water and food."

When the guard came back, he brought a lot of food.

However, these people stared at the food and swallowed their saliva, but did not eat.

When King Ling saw this, he gave a hint to the people on the side.

The guards immediately ate all the meals one by one, and those people breathed a sigh of relief.

"Thank you, sir, thank you, sir..."

It seemed that they didn't expect that King Ling would give them water and food. Some people's eyes turned red when they took the steamed buns.

Although King Ling didn't know what these people suffered, he was afraid that there was something hidden in making the people suffer like this.

Before the doctor from Jishi Hall arrived, Prince Ling opened the blood book handed over by the old man just now.

When Prince Ling finished reading the bloody book, his expression immediately turned cold.

Looking at the people who had finished eating, King Ling asked coldly, "Is what you wrote in the blood book true?"

Upon hearing King Ling's question, one of them immediately knelt down.

"Sir, what we said on this paper is true. When we escaped from the village, there were more than thirty people, but now... now we are the only ones left..."

When King Ling heard this, his fingers holding the blood book tightened involuntarily.

He wanted to ask more, but seeing that the doctor from Jishi Hall had already arrived, he could only ask someone to see the old man first.

Finally, after a few injections from Doctor Jishitang, the old man slowly woke up.

Looking at King Ling who was above him, the old man knelt down quickly.

"Sir, please make the decision for us and save us."

Prince Ling looked at the old man's trembling body and stood up to help him up.

"Don't worry, old man, I will let people find out what happened."
