The old and young people were young. Xu Ziyang, who didn't sleep well at night, got up on time early in the morning. What is rare is that the children and nephews in the family actually got up early and waited in the atrium.

Xu Ziyang knew this very well. What happened last night still made these juniors who had not experienced too many storms and waves uneasy. They just wanted to ask for a safe countermeasure from themselves. However, he obviously did not want them to be satisfied. This education must be given, so after seeing the sons and nephews, he still looked gloomy: "I know I am afraid now. What did you think before? You dare to come up with such a bold idea!"

"Dad, my son was also in a hurry and didn't think too much." Xu Kun quickly admitted his mistake, his attitude was quite sincere. But then, he changed the subject again: "But, wasn't there a matter of being a county magistrate before, so we just thought, thinking..."

His words to exonerate him were soon interrupted by Xu Ziyang: "Hmph, you really dare to say it! Do you think Li Ling and Ren Zhian were the same as those who were born? Do you know that Li Ling has a backer behind him. He came from the capital, unlike those officials in the past who were only transferred from other places? As long as he had a good time, the court would have to investigate with all his strength. By then, my entire Xu family might have to be buried with him!

"Also, the matter of Ren Zhian has not yet been concluded. Although his death is strange, it has nothing to do with us. But how many things have you left behind in this matter? I really think those desperate people in the world will keep secrets for you?

"Wrong is wrong. Even if this matter does not cause many consequences in the end, you still have to take responsibility! And you, Xu Mao, are even more ridiculous. You actually went to meet those gang members. Isn't this a snatch? If my Xu family really suffers from this, you will be the biggest sinner!"

A stern rebuke made the two younger generations who made the mistake look ashamed and didn't even dare to breathe. They just kept admitting their mistakes. Seeing that his attitude was pretty good, the old man's face looked a little better: "Forget it, the thing has happened, and it's too late to say anything else. The rules will be more regular in the future. I think as long as Li Ling's family is really under our control, he will not dare to make a statement, and he will not be able to use it."

Speaking of this, Xu Ziyang remembered the previous strategy again and looked at Xu Mo: "It's been three days. Are those people in the county still obedient?"

"Dad, don't worry, those people will never take their own initiative when they get our benefits and instructions. Even those two officials have been staying at their homes, and no one has gone out." Xu Mo hurriedly replied, looking proud. Compared to his younger brother, he was much more stable. It seems that the two brothers should have a clear understanding of the importance of the father's mind this time.

Xu Ziyang nodded without comment, then waved his hand: "Then let's take a look. I don't think he can hold on for long. Then I'll see how he kneels down in front of me..."

Before he finished speaking, a servant hurriedly ran over and arrived in front of the hall and said anxiously: "Master, the county government, the county government sent someone to come, saying yes..."

"As soon as he said that, he really couldn't help it. Go and tell the County Magistrate Li, and you said that there was something wrong at home and we wouldn't see any foreign guests today..." Xu Ziyang smiled contemptuously and told the countermeasures he had prepared. This time, the ungrateful New County Magistrate must know who has the final say here.

But after he said that, the servant did not move, and still stood there with a restless face, and said softly: "Master..."

"Huh?" It was not until then that Xu Ziyang suddenly realized that the other party was talking about the county government sent by the police, not Li Ling, who came in person, which made his face even darker: "Then there is no need to see him, go."

"Master, they didn't come to us to beg for mercy, but..." The servant felt helpless when he saw that his master was wrong. But because this fact was too much, he was a little afraid to say it. This reaction fell into the eyes of everyone, and Xu Mo and others were a little impatient: "If you have something to say, you are hilarious, are you trying to find a fight?"

"It was the county government sent someone to capture Liu Ye..." After being forced, the slave finally plucked up the courage to tell the truth, then lowered his head, not daring to see the reactions of others.

"What?" Before Xu Ziyang could speak, the others had already changed their colors and shouted angrily. Xu Kun even slapped the table: "I really rebelled against him, who gave him the courage..."

Just as the Xu family members shouted for Li Ling's decision, a mess suddenly sounded in the outer courtyard, and there was only a few bangs mixed with terrifying hum. More than a dozen servants of the yard guards had already flew backwards and stumbled into the atrium. Then seven or eight strong men in soapy robes and holding swords and sticks rushed in with murderous aura.

After the man in the lead rushed into the atrium, he kicked out again, kicking a Xu slave who was blocking him into a rolling gourd, and shouting loudly: "Dogs, you dare to stop the grandpa from doing the job. You really don't know how to live or die!"

The sudden influx of this group of servants completely shocked the Xu family. Many people subconsciously looked at their appearance, and then found in confusion that they did not recognize any of the seven or eight people. However, the evil spirit and bandit aura on these guys were so obvious that it was obvious that they were not ordinary officials at first sight.

Seeing them breaking in with great momentum, many of the Xu family's children felt a sense of silence, and subconsciously retreated. Only Xu Kun, who looked angry, stepped forward two steps and shouted, "Who are you, how dare you break into my Xu Mansion?"

"According to the order of County Magistrate Li, we came to capture Xu Mao, the culprit who colluded with bandits and wanted to plot against evil! Why, are you planning to shelter this person? Do you want us to bring you all back to the county government?" Chang Fan immediately widened his eyes, stared at them fiercely, and shouted according to what Li Ling had previously told him.

Xu Kun, who was guilty, suddenly felt a little sad when he heard this, and he couldn't speak for a while. The others were even more panicked and didn't know how to react.

Fortunately, Xu Ziyang was still there. He was already quickly calmed down and immediately slapped the table and shouted: "It's simply nonsense! I have been in this county for many years and have had many contacts with the county government. Everyone in it recognizes it, but I don't know you at all. You are not a thief from where you come from. You want to be a fool, just deceive me! Come on!"

With his words, the Xu family also reacted one after another, yes, no one knows better than them what the county yard is like now. And they don’t recognize any of these guys. Do they really think that wearing a yamen man’s clothes can do whatever they want?

Xu Mo immediately shouted: "What a group of bold thieves, they actually tricked me into the Xu family and took it down!"

More servants of the Xu family rushed over and quickly gathered twenty or thirty people, each carrying sticks and other weapons, and shouting and trying to kill the general. Seeing this, Chang Fan shouted loudly: "I see who dares! Open your dog's eyes and see clearly. This is a card ticket issued by the county magistrate. It is clearly written on it. It is Lord Li who asked us to take Xu Mao who colluded with the thieves. If you dare to obstruct him, you will be accomplices!"

While speaking, he had already shaken a document open. Xu Sen, who was not far away, just glanced at it and confirmed that it was the authentic card ticket, and there was a bright red official seal of the county magistrate on it, so there was no possibility of fraud.

In today's Dayue, local governments have always had rules. If they go on duty, they must carry their own certificates, which is the certificate issued by the county magistrate himself. Of course, sometimes there are modifications in the local area. With the same official paper and writing some plausible orders, the people can obey it. However, this is probably the means of extortion by the officials. If something really happens, the county magistrate can just say that he has not issued a certificate, and he can shirk it away.

However, the ticket Li Ling gave Chang Fan and others was real and proved with absolute credibility. Even if the Xu family wanted to raise suspicion, it would be impossible to find any flaws.

Of course, there are still problems. Xu Ziyang still grasps their identities: "I don't know if the card ticket is true, but you are definitely not from the county government. None of them are familiar to me..."

"When will the government be true or false? Let's wait for the grass-roots people?" Wan Shenji, who had been standing behind the team and looked at him coldly, then stepped forward and asked with a sneer, "To be honest, there will be major changes in the county government recently. The county government will replace many officials with corrupt and criminal records in the yamen. These positions are just brothers who have just recruited the county government, and more people will be in the county government in the future. I think, how can the county government employ people, there is no need to ask your Xu family's opinion, right?"

Xu Ziyang was stunned, Xu Mo was stunned on the spot. After Xu Kun's face changed drastically, he disappeared. Xu Sen's body trembled, and a deep regret and worry quickly rose from the bottom of his heart...

That's actually the case?!

The ruthless move that he thought he could force Li Ling to bow his head and admit defeat, and the clever trick that he thought was unsolvable was easily broken by Li Ling, and it was such a completely unexpected way.

Since the original subordinates in the yamen are disobedient, they don’t need them, just kick them away and replace them with a group of obedient and useful people.

Originally, this approach might not be possible. After all, in Huating County, who doesn’t know the prestige and power of the Xu family, and who dares to be enemies with the Xu family and turn to a new county magistrate who has no roots? But now, the appearance of these guys who are obviously outsiders makes things completely beyond the control of the Xu family, and they are completely passive.
