Seeing that his husband refused to answer, Cheng Ansu said, "You are responsible for your tribe, so I won't say much. But you know the situation of Duanyang, so you don't have to worry about the impact of Long Qi's identity exposure."

It’s a blessing that they came to this place where birds don’t poop to build a college, but they avoided a lot of trouble, which shows that everything has two sides.

Besides, Long Qi took A Chen back to the inn. The shopkeeper and the staff were very polite to him. It was only during the day that most of the guests at the inn were businessmen. Long Qi understood why A Chen and the others were able to succeed frequently.

People who travel outside business only want safety on the road and avoid disasters due to financial loss.

A Chen appeared here in broad daylight. Many guests lowered their heads when they saw him, as if they could escape. Ignoring A Chen's true identity, Long Qi sneered: "You are not masked, they all know you."

"Brother, stop making fun of me." A Chen was very curious about the people in the academy and was respectful to Long Qi: "What is the origin of Brother?

Long Qi just looked at him coldly, and quietly picked a seat by the window and sat down. As soon as he finished ordering the dishes, he heard the conversation coming from the next table - "I heard that, our prefect is panicked."

“Why?”

"Our place has always been high and the emperor is far away, just like the southwest. But this time I know that because of the winter drought, the court sent a third-rank official over here. I heard that he was holding the Shangfang sword and had just arrived in the southwest."

Long Qi was stunned. Who would it be if he was the third rank and his official rank was so high?

Thinking of the rest station in the southwest and Liu Yuan and others who were traveling back and forth for purchases, Long Qi listened with a breath, with no expression on his face. A Chen stared at the face of the person opposite, but could not see any unnecessary expression.

"Since that's the case, what's the matter with the prefect?" The man was stunned immediately after saying that, and then said, "I forgot that our Duanyang is also subordinate to the southwest. So, will that adult come here?"

"Wouldn't you be so scared that you are half-dead? I heard that this time I brought a team of mighty guards. The walker who came over there had bumped into the road. He had a small snake embroidered on his clothes. He was a little golden dragon, an amazing person."

It was the Feilong Army, and Long Qi gave the conclusion in his heart.

Duanyang has a special geographical location. At the junction of the southwest and northwest, Duanyang is still a county in the southwest, but its geographical location is more inclined to the northwest, so that both sides think that Duanyang should belong to the opposite side, more like a two-way area.

The chaos here depends on the inaction of officials, which is also a reason.

The food was served, and Long Qi was eating orderly, but there was not much news coming from the next door. Long Qi didn't hear who the third-rank official was, but these had nothing to do with him. He just had to wait until the clansmen arrived before he could take him away.

As for the little bandit leader in front of him, Long Qi had a bold idea. Unfortunately, the young master was not here, otherwise the two of them would have concluded that Long Qi was suddenly looking at him. A Chen was a little scared: "Brother, what's wrong?"

"You have heard of this incident when the imperial court sent a prince to suppress the bandits, and a fire attack caused the bandits to be killed on the mountain?"

Long Qi rarely had a gloating expression: "Now the court comes, if you find that you are so rampant, what will happen?"

A Chen swallowed his spit: "So what if they find out, they can stay here for the rest of their lives. At worst, if there is an official from the capital, we will be more honest and do whatever we should do as soon as he leaves!"

What a dead pig is not afraid of boiling water!

"Hmph, naive." Long Qi said: "If it really attracts the attention of that official, when the court wants to suppress the bandits, would you guess the local officials wait for the people who suppress the bandits in the court to come, or would you attack you first in order to avoid being exposed?"

Their butts are not clean, and when there is trouble, they will solve the problem by solving the problem.

A Chen has never studied seriously, but after struggling for so many years, he suddenly understood Long Qi's meaning. If this high-ranking official came to Duanyang or heard about the local bandits, he would report back to the capital that the emperor sent someone to suppress the bandits, it would be over!

They colluded with local officials and each got what they needed. If this dilapidation could not be concealed, they would have to become victims.

"Damn..." Although it has not happened yet, A Chen seemed to see the tragic ending of himself and his brothers. The unchanging life may be broken. He still lacks the ability to adapt to changes.

The foresight of the elder brother in front of him was not comparable to that of him. A Chen suddenly became angry: "I also said that you didn't come from the capital."

"I'm not from the capital city," Long Qi's answer was very tough. He was not from the capital city at all. "It's just that you're not bad at heart, which is forced by life. Since you have done good deeds, you barely meet the standards of a moral person. I'll just remind you kindly."

"When I finish my work here and there is no need for anyone to serve me, I will naturally go on both sides of your avenue."

This was a matter of course. In fact, A Chen felt that Long Qi just needed a guide who was familiar with Duanyang. Now that he was connected with the people in the academy, he would be useless. Logically speaking, he could leave, but Long Qi didn't mention it, he didn't mention it either.

It was just for money, A Chen said in his heart, it was not because he gave himself a name!

Long Qi was at the end of the day, and after a full meal, he did not go upstairs to rest. Instead, he asked A Chen to take him around the city, and rented a carriage, asking A Chen to take him to the suburbs and countryside of Duanyang.

Chen Ze'an said that the officials here were mining privately, so Long Qi became interested. When Long Qi asked A Chen to take him around to investigate, Cheng Ansu quickly sorted out all the information and finished the students' articles at night. She put down her pen and looked at the bright moon outside the window.

Chen Ze'an put on her coat, the stove for heating in the room was just right, the windows slightly opened up, and the air was exposed.

He saw a letter from Cheng Cen on the table at first sight, but he stopped after just opening it and did not continue writing.

"Has Madam given up on Thidian Marquis of Zhenbei?" Chen Ze'an and Cheng Ansu have been married for many years, and they can immediately understand her thoughts.

Cheng Ansu sneered: "She has gone astray. She just thought of her dead elder brother and sister-in-law. She couldn't bear to fall deeper and deeper. But she thought about what she did in the capital and used her students to indirectly force her grandfather to death. I couldn't save her or persuade her."

Chen Ze'an asked back, "What is the lady's plan?"

A short sentence made Cheng Ansu sigh. She now knew that the fate of the Cheng family was actually maintained on the little girl who betrayed the Cheng family. If she was really a witch and convinced the public, the Cheng family would never be doomed.
