Chapter 380: Incompetent County Magistrate (Part )
Hearing this, Chen Wanruo didn't say anything, but just stood aside with her arms folded across her chest.
He looked at the tied up old woman with a half-smile, and before the old woman could speak, he replied:
"I'm looking for you, why? Can't I find you?"
When saying this, Chen Wanruo had already put away the smile on her face.
The county magistrate's surname was Zhang. When he saw the men's attire, he knew they were of distinguished status.
But at this moment, I couldn't guess the identities of these people.
But he didn't dare to take the next step.
But when he saw that they dared to kidnap his wife so blatantly, he was at a loss for a moment.
Looking at the old woman again, she has been shaking her head at him ever since the county magistrate came out.
But I didn't dare to speak.
Because Chen Wanruo had just said that if she dared to say a word, the consequences would be beyond her imagination.
"You have come from afar, what do you want from me? If you have any grievances, please tell me and I will give you justice."
The county magistrate naturally saw that these people were of extraordinary status, so he was quite polite.
The county magistrate's surname was Zhang and his given name was Duan Gen. Everyone called him Mr. Zhang.
Just looking at his shifty look, Chen Wanruo didn't have a good impression of him.
The people of Dong'an Town now rely on their own porridge to survive, but what about their county magistrate?
But still have a big belly...
Thinking of this, Chen Wanruo sneered again, and then asked:
"As the county magistrate, don't you know what the current situation is in your Dong'an Town?"
Hearing this, Zhang Duangen was suddenly startled.
However, none of them revealed their identities, so no matter how scared they were, it would only last for a moment.
After I came to my senses, I still felt calm and not upset.
Although the identities of these people are extraordinary, he is the county magistrate of Dong'an Town.
It can be said that he now has the final say in the entire town.
Thinking of this, Zhang Duangen said to the yamen runner beside him:
"Don't you see that the lady is tied up? Why don't you untie her?"
After these words were spoken, Yu Cuihua, the wife Zhang Duangen mentioned, kept shaking her head.
She wanted to speak, but stopped herself when she met Chen Wanruo's half-smile.
After hearing what Zhang Duangen said, the bailiff didn't think much about it.
He walked straight towards Yu Cuihua, and just as his hand touched the rope on Yu Cuihua's body.
His hands suddenly felt numb, and he let out a cry, "Ah!" Then he knelt down towards Chen Wanruo and her group.
Zhang Duangen, who was standing by, saw this and didn't care about anything else. He immediately yelled at Chen Wanruo:
"How dare you attack the servants of this yamen? Do you know your crime?"
When saying this, Zhang Duangen still felt a little guilty for some reason.
But when he thought of his own identity, he stopped himself.
I am a county magistrate. What do I have to be afraid of?
"How dare you? Do you know who you are talking to?" Sun Bizhi on the side couldn't help but shouted angrily.
"Who...who are you?" Zhang Duangen asked stutteringly.
It would have been fine if she hadn't asked, but once she did, Yu Cuihua, who was kneeling on the ground, couldn't help but speak.
"Duan Gen, hurry up, kneel down with me. This is the famous General Chen Wanruo."
After saying this, he still looked extremely guilty.
She looked like she was acting, and not only Chen Wanruo, but even Chen Wanming could tell at a glance that she was acting.
When Zhang Duangen heard Yu Cuihua's words, his reaction was the same as when Yu Cuihua first learned about Chen Wanruo's identity.
His face was also full of disbelief.
However, Zhang Duangen had seen the world after all, and he had never doubted Chen Wanruo's identity.
Because he was already extremely frightened at this time.
With a "dong" sound, he knelt down towards Chen Wanruo and said:
"General Chen, I know I was wrong. I was blind and didn't recognize the great man..."
"No thanks, everyone get up!" Chen Wanruo said in a very easy-going manner.
As soon as these words were spoken, Zhang Duangen breathed a sigh of relief.
His face was still respectful as before, but he was already full of contempt in his heart.
Sure enough, no matter how powerful she is, she is just a woman.
It was just a small compliment, but the whole person was deceived and confused.
Looking at Zhang Duangen, how could Chen Wanruo not know what he was thinking?
So he went straight to the chair beside and sat down.
He asked casually, "County Magistrate Zhang has been the county magistrate of Dong'an Town for quite some time, right?"
Sure enough, as soon as these words came out, Zhang Duangen immediately revealed a smug smile.
"To be honest with you, General Chen, there is nothing in Dong'an Town that I don't know."
"Oh? In that case, Magistrate Zhang should also be very clear about the current situation in Dong'an Town?"
"I know, I must know. Now that Dong'an Town has been recaptured under the leadership of General Chen, it can be said that..."
"Then I want to ask you, do you know how many people there are in Dong'an Town now?"
Chen Wanruo interrupted Zhang Duangen and asked.
When she asked this question, her tone became noticeably sharper.
Anyone who is not blind or deaf should be able to hear it.
Zhang Duangen is no exception.
Hearing Chen Wanruo's sudden change in attitude, he was shocked.
At this time, he probably realized that Chen Wanruo might have come with bad intentions.
But Zhang Duangen is not afraid, he has his own explanation.
So he pretended to be extremely respectful and said:
"General Chen must know that Dong'an Town was previously in the hands of the barbarians. I cannot rule over them. It is already difficult to save my life from them, let alone govern them."
After hearing this, Zhang Duangen felt that he was extremely remarkable.
I can think of such an excuse.
He originally thought that Chen Wanruo would express sympathy after hearing what he said.
But I never thought...
"Oh? According to what Lord Zhang said, it means that it is too late for me to capture the city, right?"
As soon as these words were spoken, Zhang Duangen was immediately frightened.
Just as I was about to explain something, I heard Chen Wanruo's voice again.
"It is understood that it has been quite some time since Dong'an Town was recaptured, but County Magistrate Zhang has not even counted the number of people in the county. This is obviously a dereliction of duty."
After hearing this, Zhang Duangen couldn't even speak clearly.
"What? Wasn't Magistrate Zhang very talkative just now? I guess you must have complained about me a lot just now, right?"
Having said that, General Chen stood up slowly again, walked towards Zhang Duangen, and said slowly:
"Let me guess what Magistrate Zhang said about me just now. Hmm... He probably thought that I am a woman and could be fooled by just a few words, right?"
