The next day, Bai Zhi was hesitant to enter the city. She understood that her situation was very dangerous whether here or in the county.

She is the enemy of Yan Qi and the enemy of the county magistrate of Wei County.

Bai Zhi asked the innkeeper, "Boss, is there any news about the appointment of a new official in Wei County?"

The store owner scratched his head and said, "Hiss... no! Does the girl have any gossip?"

Could it be that the governor hasn't finished the matter yet?

Although it was agreed upon for a month at the time, if you want to replace an official, you have to prepare strong evidence of his crime, and the procedure is not uncomplicated.

Before Bai Zhi had time to make a decision, the inn where she was staying was surrounded by soldiers.

The magistrate of Weixian County personally brought people here. There were nearly a hundred soldiers and horses, and the formation was huge.

The county magistrate sat on the horse with a confident expression on his face. He cleared his throat and said, "Miss Bai, someone witnessed you inciting the people to rebel. As the county magistrate, I cannot just sit idly by and ignore you and your men." It’s better to just surrender and capture him!”

This unfounded charge is so casual!

In fact, the argument at this moment is meaningless. The other party has made it clear that they want to detain her, and there are more people. There were less than ten of the opponent's hundred people. No matter how skilled she was, it would be difficult for her to escape unscathed. She didn't want to make a meaningless sacrifice.

If she was captured at this time, Lin Ling would definitely find someone to rescue her, but the problem was time. If Yan Qi's people got the better of him and was killed in prison, the county magistrate would at most be charged with poor supervision. But if Lin Ling's people came first, then she would survive.

She wants to make a risky move!

Bai Zhi was lame and could only sit on a chair. She sighed softly, "Which of the county magistrate's eyes saw that I incited rebellion?"

"You went deep into the mountains and instigated the people of Liufeng Village to rebel. Fortunately, the people of Liufeng Village were sensible and reported it to me..."

The county magistrate chattered a lot, but Bai Zhi didn't listen at all. She just shouted loudly, "How dare you, a corrupt official, call yourself the county magistrate? I don't even want to see if your horsey ass can do it properly! Hey! People next to you, I advise you. Turning from darkness to light, I went to the mountains to investigate under the secret order of Lin Ling, the governor of Qiongzhou, in order to collect charges against him. This old man might fall tomorrow! This man is corrupt, perverts the law, and has no common people. Of course, he will not have you either. These officials! Do you know how many bribes he collects every year? That’s a lot!”

Bai Zhi stretched out her two hands, with her fingers wide open, and waved them in front of the county soldiers, "There are more than you can imagine! The governor said that the death of you, the magistrate of Wei County, is not far away!"

The county magistrate was anxious, "Don't talk nonsense here!"

"That's right! Who do you think you are! A woman! How dare you slander our county magistrate!" The official behind him couldn't sit still.

"Am I lying? I think you are colluding with each other! Soldiers! The state government allocates ten thousand taels of gold every year to solve the chaos in Wei County. Where is the money? You can see how little it has? Has your food been improved? Your ordnance has been upgraded. Really? No! I see that your soldiers and armor are old and worn out, and all of them are sallow and skinny. I guess you haven’t benefited from it at all!”

There is a thousand taels of gold, but Bai Zhi is also making nonsense.

But someone was shaken.

Bai Zhi continued: "You should know your county magistrate better than me! You also know the governor Lin Ling better! Who is he? The people of Qiongzhou call him Lin Xianggong! This Qiongzhou is the richest land in Chen State, Lin Xian How could the Duke be willing to let you suffer, and how could he allow such filthy people to exist in Wei County! You are not living a good life, not because Lin Xianggong didn't save you, but because you were corrupted by this dog official!"

"The deposed officials are already on the way. If you believe me today and take away this bad official, you will all be meritorious officials in the future! I guarantee that you will be promoted and make a fortune! Otherwise, you will all have to die with him!"

The soldier's horse was visibly restless.

They indeed know their county magistrate better than Bai Zhi, and they will chat a few words when they have nothing to do. Their county magistrate's life is very nourishing. He has married a lot of beautiful concubines and they have nothing. The more they think about it, the more unhappy they are. balance.

At this moment, Bai Zhi hated herself for being a girl. If she were a man, her nonsense would be more convincing than that of a woman.

Bai Zhi signaled the guards to get ready, and asked Anji to carry her on his back and run away. She whispered, "Don't be obsessed with fighting, it's more important to escape."

The guards are really good, saving lives is their essential skill.

"Witch! Witch! Even if he is a witch, you would believe it! Get it for me!" the county magistrate shouted.

Someone moved in response, but there was only sparse movement behind them.

The county magistrate looked back in disbelief, "What are you doing? Get them quickly! Otherwise, I'll kill them all!"

The decision is often made in an instant. If you believe it, you will believe it, and if you don't believe it, you will not believe it. It depends on the balance in each person's heart.

"Brothers! A dog official is unkind! Why not kill him! Promotion and fortune are just around the corner!" Suddenly, someone shouted loudly.

The situation was split into two in an instant, but only a few people believed in Bai Zhi.

Bai Zhi was a little surprised that someone actually believed her, so she shouted at the top of her lungs, "Promotion and wealth are just around the corner!"

The fight started! The county magistrate's own troops.

Bai Zhi did not withdraw immediately, but chose to stay and watch.

The county magistrate panicked and kept shouting something, so Bai Zhi asked the guards to take the opportunity to capture him. The guards fought with the soldiers protecting the county magistrate, and the scene was a bit chaotic for a while.

Suddenly, the sound of horse hooves came from the distance, shaking the stones on the ground.

Someone came on horseback, looking like a military general, shouting, "Weixian County Magistrate Zhang Changgong takes the documents!"

After the county magistrate saw clearly the appearance of the person coming, he was overjoyed. He shouted to stop and got off the horse in embarrassment, "Oh! Lord Changshi! This group of people is terrible. They want to rebel! They want to rebel!"

The person who came was Qiong Governor Shi Zhouyuan. He glanced at Zhang Xiancheng and snorted forcefully, saying: "Zhang Changgong! Zhang Xiancheng! You are the one who wants to rebel! But from today on, you will no longer It’s the county magistrate!”

The soldiers who were fighting behind them looked at each other with confusion in their eyes. Could it be that this woman was really right? She might as well stop fighting and pretend to be someone who supported her at the time, and maybe she could get promoted and make a fortune.

Zhang Changgong looked in disbelief, "Huh?"

Zhou Yuan slammed the document in his hand onto Zhang Changgong's face, "Read it for yourself!"

The deposed document clearly recorded Zhang Changgong's crimes. Every item made him frightened. All the old events were pulled out and stamped with the seal of the state capital.

Zhang Changgong didn't think Lin Ling would know these things. He straightened his hat and said confidently, "Impossible! This is slander! When did I ever do these things!"

Zhou Yuan burst out laughing, "Do you think our governor is just a free earner? If you want to plead your case, go to jail to plead your case!"

The large army from behind also arrived. It was a small army. Bai Zhi estimated at a glance that it was about a thousand.

When the large forces arrived, the situation was under control.

"Ha! Why do you arrest me? If I am removed from my post, what will happen to Wei County? People cannot live without an official for a day!" Zhang Changgong still wanted to struggle.

Zhou Yuan almost laughed out loud, "You really put a high hat on yourself, don't worry, the new county magistrate of our Wei County has also arrived, and your people will not suffer!"

Although Zhang Changgong cried out for injustice, Zhou Yuan ignored him and took him and his men away.

After handling the affairs, Zhou Yuan walked up to Bai Zhi and shook his head slightly, "Ms. Bai was frightened! Are you hurt?"

When Bai Zhi heard that there was a new county magistrate, she was happy, "It's nothing serious! Thank you, Mr. Chang Shi, for your concern! Mr. Chang Shi just said that there is a new county magistrate. Where are they? I have to go and visit!"

Zhou Yuan shouted to the soldiers behind him, "Quick! Bring the new county magistrate up!"

Bai Zhi was a little stunned, bring it up? what's the situation?

When the new county chief came to the throne, Bai Zhi was completely dumbfounded.
