Seeing how miserable the county magistrate in front of him was, Xiao Han felt that if he was not an honest official, he must be a treacherous and evil person!

The fat county magistrate didn't know at this time that he was already swinging back and forth between being a loyal person and a traitor in Xiao Han's heart.

When they arrived at the back hall, they first politely asked Xiao Han and others to take a seat.

It's just that there weren't enough benches in the room, so Lunzi and the others could only stand behind Xiao Han. Seeing this scene, the fat county magistrate scratched his head in embarrassment, turned to the master outside the door and shouted, "Go to the restaurant to order a set."

After dinner, go to the carriage and horse shop and ask shopkeeper Cao to get some fodder to feed the horses!"

When he saw the master running away in a hurry, the fat county magistrate turned around and said repeatedly, "There are always few guests at home, so I didn't prepare so many things. Shangguan came all the way, so he must be tired. Let's go to the restaurant later. First,

Get something to eat."

It has to be said that the fat county magistrate's arrangement is quite in line with Xiao Han's mentality. It has been almost a morning, and they are indeed hungry at this time.

"There is no one else here. What the county magistrate couldn't say just now can be said now!" Looking away from the shabby back hall, Xiao Han suppressed his curiosity about the fat county magistrate and prepared to figure out the disaster relief first.

Let’s talk about personnel related matters.

"Here!" When the fat county magistrate heard Xiao Han mention this issue again, the smile on his face froze obviously, and then he sighed and explained, "Don't blame me, Mr. Marquis. I was outside just now. I was afraid that some things would be reported to the city."

If the people listen, it will cause unnecessary trouble."

After saying this, the fat county magistrate paused, as if waiting for Xiao Han to continue asking, but after waiting for a while, no one spoke, so he could only smile awkwardly and continue.

"To be fair to Mr. Hou, in fact, as early as a few days ago, Xianguan received the news that Huazhou's embankment burst again and that a large number of rescue workers were killed and missing. However, Xianguan blocked the news and did not let the people in the city know it.

, Otherwise, this city would have been in chaos right now!"

"Oh, where did your news come from?" After hearing this, Xiao Han finally broke the silence and asked.

"I learned about it from the refugees outside." The fat county magistrate looked at Xiao Han carefully and quickly replied, "The refugees outside had just arrived at the city. Seeing how pitiful they were, the official organized people to give porridge outside the city. As a result,

It was okay at first, but then gradually these rumors began to spread among the victims. At that time, the subordinates realized that something was wrong, and immediately stopped the porridge team and closed the city gate."

"You don't believe this rumor?" Xiao Han continued to ask without commenting on the fat county magistrate's remarks.

"I was somewhat convinced at first," the fat magistrate replied honestly, "but later, when I saw that the refugees spreading rumors were inciting trouble and even attempted to invade the county, I didn't believe it anymore."

"Oh? Are they still attacking the city?" Liu Hongji was still more interested in fighting and killing. Hearing this, he stared at the fat county magistrate suspiciously and said, "You are the only one in this small and broken county that was not captured by them?"
