Maid, Little Lucky Wife

Just after crossing the top of the mountain, everyone quickly discovered a group of people. These people were much cleaner than the refugees they encountered before.

When everyone was on guard, an old man stood out from the crowd. He was a well-known old man in Li County.

The old man used a cane and walked tremblingly.

"Is the person here the Grand Master of Mo County?"

Mo Xuan's mind moved, and he took a step forward and said, "Hello, old man, I am the new county magistrate."

After he finished speaking, there was a commotion in the crowd.

"Is this the county magistrate? So young? He can't be a liar, right?"

"That's right, the court is getting more and more perfunctory with us. How can a young man come in to control floods? Haha..."

"No wonder there are reports of people being greedy for money. I heard that it is popular in the capital to buy officials. As long as you give money, you can be replaced by the county magistrate."

"Really or not? When I have money, I will definitely buy an official and a concubine with ten rooms and eight rooms."

"Haha, with your body and bones, don't die on a woman."

"Go away, don't curse me."

This group of people really dared to say anything, even the court made fun of them.

The old man looked with contempt in his eyes and looked Mo Xuan up and down. He was handsome and handsome, but he was too young to convince others.

He calmed down and said, "Master Mo, I heard that the imperial court gave some silver coins for disaster relief. I heard that it was first come, first served. I wonder where the silver coins are? Don't be fooled by your greed for money."

"If you can't get it out, you must give us an explanation today."

His voice rose sharply, and the crowd shouted in response.

Mo Xuan looked calm and muttered in his heart that this was a threat to him. If he didn't handle it well, it would be difficult to win over people.

Mo Xuan looked at the crowd in front of him. There was expectation, disdain, and greed in their eyes.

He raised his voice and said, "Everyone, you are worrying too much. The disaster relief money from the imperial court will naturally be sent by the imperial commissioner. It is impossible for me to carry it with me."

"You all really think highly of me. My official position is too low, and I am not qualified to personally escort the court's disaster relief money."

"It is even more impossible to say that I am greedy for money. Everyone should have seen the government's disaster relief money. They all bear the official seal of the imperial court."

"And everything we have on us is the property we earned from the wife's dowry house."

The crowd shouted, "You are talking nonsense, the money for disaster relief must be with you."

"Yes, if we search, we will definitely find it."

Several people in the crowd who took the lead in shouting said maliciously, their eyes flashing with evil intentions.

With so many carriages, there must be a lot of belongings.

Seeing the crowd in chaos again, Mo Xuan quietly used his inner strength, and his voice was loud, as if ringing in everyone's ears.

"I am indeed not greedy for money to provide disaster relief. My wife is pregnant, so I have prepared a lot of things, just a few..."

"Subordinates are here."

"Open the hood of the carriage and let everyone take a look."

A dozen or so carriages opened with a bang. There were seeds, cotton cloth, clothing, grain, dried vegetables and bacon, and most importantly, three carriages of potatoes.

The crowd stared straight at it and swallowed their saliva one by one. Although they were not as sad as the victims, they still rarely ate meat.

The person with the sly eyebrows wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to fish, but was stared at eagerly by Ling Yi and others. The sword in his hand was shining coldly, and he hesitated for a moment.

These are carriages for carrying goods, carriages for private use, so they cannot be seen casually, and there are people in the carriages, so how much space can there be for loading things?

The silver coins used for disaster relief rarely use banknotes, they are all real gold and silver. With this little amount, it cannot be called disaster relief.

Mo Xuan took a deep breath and said seriously, "As the county magistrate here, I must consider everyone's future. Although the funds did not come this time, I brought seeds that are easy to survive."

The old man sneered, "If we can't solve the problem of land scarcity and water storage, everything will be empty talk."

Mo Xuan nodded in agreement, "I have some ideas, but they need to be put into practice. You have to try, right?"

The mood of the crowd calmed down, and some people began to think seriously about Mo Xuan's words. The old man took the lead and asked a few questions, and Mo Xuan answered them one by one.

Seeing that things were about to end, several people suddenly rushed out from behind the crowd.

"Help, I'm so hungry, so much food, haha!"

The two leaders pretended to be crazy and pushed through the crowd, causing the people around them to stumble.

"Hurry and grab it, the food will be gone soon."

"Hurry up and grab it, I haven't had enough food for a long time."

The people who were waiting and watching reacted instantly, fearing that the food would be snatched away, and rushed forward together.

Where has the old man seen this battle? It was agreed before that he would be the one to negotiate. Whose family did these people belong to?

The sudden change caused the crowd to become confused again. They were all ordinary people, and Ling Yi and the others did not dare to use their swords.

We can only protect the convoy and don't hurt anyone.

Yun Shang was sitting in the carriage, feeling extremely anxious, fearing that something might happen to Mo Xuan.

She watched with sharp eyes as a man suddenly rushed to Mo Xuan and took out a dagger from his arms.

"Husband, be careful!"

Hearing Yun Shang's shout, Mo Xuan stepped back a few steps and drew the dagger against his clothes.

Mo Xuan's eyes narrowed slightly and he looked at the assassin with a scrutinizing gaze.

The assassin stabbed him again with a stern look in his eyes.

Mo Xuan snorted coldly, these people really thought highly of him and started assassinating him before he even entered the city?

To put it mildly, I'm afraid.

The old man saw the dagger with sharp eyes, and instantly realized that they were being used as guns.

The old man shouted, "Stop it quickly, someone wants to assassinate the county magistrate."

The sound was not loud, and the crowd was confused. Only some people around heard it, and these people paused.

At this time, the assassin in the middle was immediately exposed to the crowd, and the fierce attack caused the woman to scream.

Mo Xuan was afraid of hurting the crowd, so he drew out his sword. Without withdrawing the scabbard, he used it as a stick to block the incoming attack.

The sword blade and scabbard collided together, and a strong force came. The assassin's heart tightened, and he had no time to hesitate and kicked Mo Xuan in the abdomen.

Mo Xuan's body twisted strangely, and most of the strength in his hands was relieved.

The assassin suddenly lost his balance.

Taking advantage of the opportunity, Mo Xuan grabbed the assassin's wrist and kicked him in the chest.

The assassin looked at him in shock, let out a cry of pain, and flew backwards.

Not a single move succeeded, and the fellow assassins hiding in the crowd stopped hiding and attacked him one after another.

Mo Xuan didn't dare to relax at all, and he was fighting among the assassins with his clothes flying.

The crowd finally reacted and fled backwards.

Only Mo Xuan and a group of assassins were left in the middle.

Seeing that the assassin was defeated and was about to withdraw, Mo Xuan was unwilling at this time.

"Where to go?"

He grabbed a person by the collar and threw him behind him. The tip of the sword was pointed directly at his throat, making the assassin unable to move.

One person was floated, and another person shouted "Evacuate!"

At this moment, Ling Yi and his men rushed in front of them and instantly lost the chance to escape.

When the leader of the assassin saw this, his throat moved, and he fell to the ground, dying.

Then all the assassins died in front of their eyes.

Mo Xuan retracted his sword and silently glanced at the corpse on the ground.

Ling Yi took a breath and said, "Sir, these people are all dead."

Mo Xuan nodded.
