When Lu Chen heard that he could be exempted from taxes, his eyes lit up. He bowed to the county magistrate and said, "Apologize to you again for my rudeness."

The Dongjin County Lord stretched out his hand to make Lu Chen stand up, and said with a serious face, "It's okay, as long as you can do what you say."

"Cough cough." At this time, the young master behind coughed a few times, and slowly opened his eyes. When he sat up, he looked around in surprise, and finally landed on the face of County Mistress Dongjin.

"Grandmother!" The young master called out in a panic.

"It's all right." The County Lord Dongjin walked over, and Lu Chen chose to walk out of the room at the right time. There were still people from Dongjin Mansion waiting outside.

"It's all right now, the county lord is talking to the young master." Lu Chen went downstairs after finishing speaking.

"This hateful peddler must be taught a lesson!" The young noble woman whispered angrily.

"Are you okay?" He Tongxin waited below, because the county lord came, the store was closed, and the shop assistants were also sent out, only the Ma brothers and sisters were there.

"Where's your brother?" Lu Chen glanced at Ma Qiuhua and asked.

"Painted out." Ma Qiuhua replied speechlessly.

Lu Chen walked to the side, and just sat down to rest, when a word spread that the county magistrate had summoned Lu Chen and Yuan Feng.

After hearing this, Lu Chen brought Yuan Feng with him, and frowned again and led Yuan Feng up.

The door opened, and County Mistress Dongjin was sitting by the bed, while the young master was lying on the bed and looking around curiously.

"You lied to me!" Yuan Feng looked angrily at the county magistrate Dongjin when he came in and said.

"Yuanfeng, don't be rude." Although Lu Chen didn't understand what Dongjin county lord said to let Yuanfeng pass like this, but right now he still has to live in Dongjin county, so naturally he couldn't offend the county lord too much.

"Son, you are kind. When you heard that I was in trouble, you were willing to follow the people in my mansion to the mansion to rescue me. But I circled you and frightened you and your family." The county magistrate Dongjin said Then he stood up again and saluted Yuan Feng, saying, "I did something wrong this time."

"Grandmother." The young master called out hastily when he saw County Master Dongjin like this.

But Dongjin County Mistress didn't seem to hear it, she looked at Lu Chen and Yuanfeng and said, "It's just that I didn't lie about the catastrophe in my house, I really need to trouble Brother Yuan to help us once more, There must be a big thank you from my family." County Master Dongjin looked at Lu Chen and said.

Lu Chen hesitated for a moment, and finally had to ask Dongjin county magistrate to listen.

"This matter is also related to the county head of your county." The county head Dongjin sat down and said.

It turned out that the county master Dongjin and the county master Qingshui didn't get along with each other when they were young, but later on, due to various reasons, the two became almost incompatible.

"Her family is stronger than mine. There is an empress sitting in the court. I came here to be the county magistrate just to avoid her. Entering Beijing, something went wrong with Yong Er just after he passed."

The owner of Dongjin County was originally a serious and expressionless person, but now his voice trembled, and he said with a little resentment, "I thought that someone would be able to see that my family was killed by war and make a decision for me, but I didn't expect that in the end But in order for Yonger to survive, he forced her to make a bet, asking Yonger to compete with her grandson, if Yonger loses, he will give her half of our Dongjin County."

"How could this be?" Lu Chen was so surprised that he couldn't speak.

The County Lord Dongjin shook his head without further explanation, and said, "Now that her family's power is declining, she made up her mind to kill Yong'er early, and first hold the land in her hands."

"So you plan to ask my family Yuanfeng to replace the young master?" Lu Chen also understood at this time.

County Lord Dongjin turned his head to look at Yuanfeng and said, "This child looks a bit like my Yonger, so I came up with such an idea. She came to the mansion suddenly yesterday to see Yonger, so I had no choice but to let the housekeeper Ask Yuanfeng to come over."

"But after entering, you won't let me go out." Yuan Feng said with a bad expression.

The head of Dongjin County felt embarrassed, and said, "I was the one who gave the order because I was afraid of getting wind of it. I'm really sorry."

"I don't know what kind of competition to try?" Lu Chen thought in his heart that ordinary kids still couldn't beat Yuan Feng.

County Lord Dongjin looked at Lu Chen with bright eyes and said, "The literary test is a fuss, we can memorize it better, the most important thing is the martial test, we need to hunt."

"This..." Lu Chen hesitated when he heard that he was going to hunt.

"Don't worry, I will send someone to protect him. He is the hope of Dongjin Mansion, and I won't let him suffer any harm." The county magistrate Dongjin said with some expectation in his eyes.

"I also beg you, if you can win for me, I am willing to let you live for me, and be the son of the Dongjin Mansion." The young master next to him suddenly struggled, knelt and said to Yuanfeng.

"Yonger!" Dongjin county lord called out in a distressed voice.

"It doesn't have to be like that, I don't care to be you." Yuan Feng said coldly.

Seeing Yuanfeng like this, Dongjin County Lord looked at Yuanfeng and said, "Good boy, tell me what you want, and I will try my best to do it."

"Yuanfeng!" Lu Chen couldn't help shouting at this moment.

But Yuan Feng had already said at this time, "I want money, a lot of money."

County Lord Dongjin glanced at Lu Chen, but Lu Chen didn't make another sound. County Lord Dongjin immediately said, "I promise you ten thousand taels of silver."

"Deal." Yuanfeng clapped his hands excitedly, and was about to go get a paper to write a receipt.

"You're in a hurry." Lu Chen pulled Yuanfeng angrily, then turned to look at County Lord Dongjin and asked, "When is the competition?"

"After the autumn harvest." Dongjin County Lord said.

Lu Chen thought for a while, and then said, "Okay, within this period of time, I will try my best to cure Young Master Yong's illness. If Young Master Yong recovers by then, please let him go to the competition."

County Lord Dongjin was even more excited when he heard this, "If Yonger can be cured, even if I lose, I will be willing!"

"Grandma, we can't lose!" Young Master Yong called out again.

"Stupid boy, you won't have to worry about no firewood if you stay in the green hills. Do you really think that grandma doesn't want you because of half of Dongjin County?" The owner of Dongjin County said, hugging Young Master Yong affectionately.

Young master Yong burst into tears.

"In this case, let's discuss this matter in the long run." Lu Chen took Yuan Feng out after speaking.

While waiting, Yuan Feng was still a little angry.

"You foolish kid who sees money!" Lu Chen scolded with a smile, and after they went down, the county master Dongjin soon called people into the house, put Young Master Yong in a box and carried him onto the carriage, and then left.

After the county lord left, Lu Chen opened the door to do business as usual. Although Ma Chunlai was excited, he knew what to ask and what not to ask, so he obediently started the business.

The three of Lu Chen's family went upstairs, and Lu Chen told He Tongxin what he had said to Dongjin county magistrate.

"1 taels? That's a lot." He Tongxin said in surprise.

However, Lu Chen turned his head to look at Yuanfeng and said, "You remember that money is yours only when it is spent. Could it be that you want to exchange 1 taels for your life?"

"I won't lose!" Yuan Feng said unconvinced.

"It's not a matter of whether you lose or not, but I always feel that if the Qingshui County Lord dares to come and look for him like this, there must be some sinister way to make the people here lose." Lu Chen frowned and said thoughtfully.

"You mean they will tamper with on the hunting ground?" He Tongxin asked suspiciously.

"Then I'm not afraid." Yuan Feng said again.

"Shut up, I haven't taught you that you followed a stranger without permission!" Lu Chen angrily scolded Yuan Feng, but now Yuan Feng didn't dare to say any more.

After all, he also knew that for his own sake, Lu Chen and He Tongxin were in trouble.

"That's why you chose to cure that Young Master Yong and let him compete by himself?" He Tongxin knew Lu Chen very well.

Seeing that He Tongxin understood him, Lu Chen felt a lot more relaxed, and Yuan Feng beside him also sniffed and began to think.

"But I can't cure him, we have to ask someone for help." Lu Chen looked at He Tongxin and said.

"You want to find Master and the others?" He Tongxin said excitedly.

Yuan Feng immediately stood up when he heard this and said, "No, now that the Helan family is torn apart, it would be too dangerous for us to expose our whereabouts."

Lu Chen didn't expect the situation to be so serious, so he could only say, "Then I'll go back and study medical books. Anyway, don't rush to earn the 1 taels, do you hear me?"

"Understood." Yuan Feng responded lightly, and went out listlessly.

After Yuanfeng left, He Tongxin sat down and said, "I didn't expect our county head to be such a domineering person. I'm afraid life in our county will be difficult in the future."

Lu Chen also nodded, and said, "Our relationship with Dongjin County Lord's Mansion will also gradually fade away, so don't be too conspicuous."

He Tongxin also nodded.

After this turmoil, Lu Chen sent He Tongxin back, and Yuan Feng also sent him back.It's just that when he left, the people from Dongjin county lord's mansion still brought books, which recorded various rules, relationships between characters, and the habits and preferences of Young Master Yong.

"Aren't you determined to give up?" Lu Chen took a look, Yuan Feng had already picked up the book, and he didn't say anything.

I have to say that the temptation of 1 taels is too great, even Lu Chen is a little tempted, not to mention Yuan Feng who is carrying complicated things on his back.

Lu Chen understands Yuanfeng, all he can do is to try to find a cure for Young Master Yong's disease, and think more about what might happen in the hunting ground, so as to save the life of this crazy boy, Yuanfeng.
