I've been reborn, who still wants to be a cowardly little white flower?

The county magistrate came to find Jiang Yuan and wanted her to go with him for the interrogation. They interrogated all the bandits but did not get any more useful information.

Except for the bandit leader who was crippled by Jiang Yuan, he refused to say a word. Even though the county magistrate was so angry that he tortured him, it was useless. So he came to Jiang Yuan to see if she had any solution.

Jiang Yuan spread his hands and said, "I don't know how to interrogate him. If I have to go, he probably won't live long.

When I see people like this who are stubborn, I get so angry. When I get angry, I easily lose control and he is not far from death.

You should wait for General Qu to come back."

The county magistrate sighed in embarrassment, gave Jiang Yuan a few words of advice, saying that eating too much was bad for the body, and left in a hurry.

While counting the days in the house, Xie Yunxiao led his troops to the previous stop for investigation. The previous dock for registering supplies was ten days' fast horse ride away from Binshui County, which meant traveling day and night.

If you use horses and carriages to transport bulk goods, it will take at least a month, but if you use water transportation, it will take about half a month, which greatly saves cost and time.

At this time, Xie Yunxiao should not have arrived yet.

Four days later, Qu Jin returned triumphantly. With the clues obtained from the previous interrogation, he easily found the hiding place of the bandits and wiped them out in one fell swoop.

There were originally more than a hundred people, and dozens of them have been arrested, so there are not many left.

When Qu Jin and his men arrived, the remaining bandits were packing up their things and seemed to be preparing to run away. They probably noticed something was wrong because the people who led the operation had not returned yet. However, they were one step too slow and were directly caught.

The first thing she did when she came back was to go see Jiang Yuan to see if she had been behaving herself. On her way back, she saw the county magistrate on the street, but she didn't see Jiang Yuan who had come out to watch the fun.

After returning to the county government office and asking around, I found out that Jiang Yuan had been eating and sleeping all the time for the past few days. Not only had she not left the county government office, she had not even stepped out of her room.

Qu Jin was very satisfied with her obedience. When he came to the yard where they were staying temporarily with the delicious food he bought on the roadside, he was a little dumbfounded.

There was an apple tree planted in the yard. When she went out, the tree was full of fruits. Now, the tree is bare, with only sparse leaves, swaying lonely in the wind.

While he was daydreaming, a stone flew out from the direction of the room at an extremely fast speed and hit the root of a leaf accurately. The leaf swayed and floated down from the tree.

Qu Jin was simply stunned. No need to ask, it must have been Jiang Yuan who did it.

It’s still somewhat acceptable that the apples have fallen off, perhaps someone picked them on purpose. But the leaves are also bald, which is a bit hard to understand.

It turns out that they were all destroyed by human beings.

When I walked out of the room, I saw Jiang Yuan holding her chin with one hand. There were stones piled up like a small mountain on the table. She was holding one of them in her hand, spinning it around, and then whoosh, it flew out.

Oh, another leaf died.

"Big sister, you are finally back?" Jiang Yuan saw his relatives and looked at Qu Jin aggrievedly.

Qu Jin walked into the house with the oil-paper bag in his hand and pointed at the apple tree in the yard that had "bald prematurely". "I came back two days late. Did you tear down everything in the yard?"

"I'm just bored. Besides, the maids in the yard were supposed to pick the apples, so I'm helping them."

"What about the leaves?"

"Leaves, the leaves should have fallen off. I am trying to help them break free from the constraints of the tree trunks and run towards a free life as soon as possible. Oh, no, Mr. Ye."

"You are really good."

Qu Jin was speechless. This person had so many twisted ideas.

Qu Jin was still in charge of the subsequent interrogation. It was said that when the mountain bandit leader in prison saw the water bandit leader who was also captured, he spoke the first words he had said in these days.

Well, a fight broke out afterwards, and the prison became a mess. The two groups of "bandits" who originally belonged to the same family accused and cursed each other. The scene was truly breathtaking.

Jiang Yuan had not witnessed such a grand spectacle with his own eyes, and a mouthful of old blood rushed to his throat. Based on the principle of not wasting even a bit of his blood, he swallowed it back.

It was Qu Jin who stepped in and finally found important clues.

The next day, he left a team to garrison in Binshui County, and took the remaining people to meet up with Xie Yunxiao.

Jiang Yuan repeatedly assured that she could ride a horse. After bargaining for a long time, Jiang Yuan agreed to take a carriage, and Qu Jin agreed to let her go.

Xie Yunxiao led his men on horseback, galloping all the way. They left most of their men to camp twenty miles in front of Luoshui County, and he entered the city with three soldiers.

The magistrate of Luoshui County is named Bai. He passed the imperial examination last year and came here to serve as the magistrate.

I heard that as soon as he arrived in Luoshui County, he immediately checked the cases that had been accumulated here for many years and worked tirelessly to organize the messy archives room.

He solved a lot of backlog cases in one go, and everyone praised him highly.

Xie Yunxiao brought three followers to the county government office, took out the token in his arms, and the bailiff standing guard at the door quickly invited them in.

The entire gate of the county government office is particularly clean, and the plaque is newly polished, which makes people feel happy just by looking at it.

"Little brother, what is your county magistrate doing?" Xie Yunxiao asked casually.

The bailiff chuckled and said, "Our masters are either trying cases or sorting files in the archives room."

"Are there so many backlogged cases in Luoshui County?"

The yamen runner was a little embarrassed, looked around, and said in a low voice, "To be honest with you, General, the previous county magistrate did not even come to court.

The county magistrate did not go to court and did not pay attention to the affairs of the yamen, so naturally the people under him just muddled through.

The old magistrate had served in Luoshui County for more than ten years, but he had never gone into the archive room for three to five years.

The new county magistrate came and saw that the dirt was a palm thick, not to mention the records that had to be updated from time to time. There was nothing at all. "

Xie Yunxiao frowned and thought to himself, this shouldn't be the case. Luoshui County is not too far from the capital, and the governance here shouldn't be so lax.

The bailiff didn't know much, so he didn't say much.

An old man who looked to be in his fifties walked towards them. The yamen runner bowed and introduced him, "Master Wang, this is General Xie from the capital, here to see the county magistrate."

He turned to Xie Yunxiao and introduced him, "General, this is the legal advisor of our county government."

Master Wang bowed quickly and said, "Greetings, General. The county magistrate is in the archives room. I will lead the way for you."

"Thank you."

The young yamen runner bowed and withdrew, and the legal advisor led the way.

"Master Wang, how long have you been a master in Luoshui County?"

"It's been more than 30 years. After a while, I will retire and return home."

"Oh, you were also the advisor to the previous county magistrate?"

Master Wang looked at Xie Yunxiao, his wrinkled face flushed slightly, "Yes, General, you should have left long ago after being in office for so many years.

But the new county magistrate came and ignited my young desire to make a difference, so I stayed a little longer."

Xie Yunxiao smiled gently. This master was quite straightforward in his words.
