When Sun Tu walked out of the county government, he was immediately stopped by Chao Gai who had come out earlier. The latter even clasped his fists at him and bowed to him and said, "Sanlang, this time it's really a blessing for you to help you, otherwise my whole family would be in trouble." As long as he thinks about the miserable situation of the Ji family members in the hall just now, he will be afraid for a while.

Sun Tu quickly replied with a humble greeting: "Bao Zheng is so serious. As the saying goes, the Qing Dynasty will be clear, and I just want to do my best. And if the people around Bao Zheng are not good at helping themselves, I cannot completely turn this case over."

Chao Gai just smiled and knew what the other party was referring to. Earlier, after he was convinced that he was framed by Jijiazhuang and the people from Hutou Village, he immediately adopted Sun Tu's suggestion and fought back. While it was dark, he sent a farmer who was good at sneaking in the dark to secretly put the whole set of jade wineware back to Ji Yang's mansion. This was why Lei Heng and his people were able to find key physical evidence in Jijiazhuang, so that Liu Magistrate confirmed that the murderer who robbed the birth gift was Ji Yang and others.

But even so, Chao Gai was quite grateful to Sun Tu and said, "I, Chao Gai, saved me from danger this time. No matter what problems you have in the future, I will definitely help you with all my strength."

"Then I'll thank Bao Zheng here." Sun Tu smiled again and wanted to leave with Chao Gai. But at this moment, Song Jiang walked out quickly with a serious face. Seeing Chao Gai hesitating for a moment, he said, "Bao Zheng, please stay, I have a word to tell you."

"I wonder what the Ai Shi has to give?" Chao Gai stopped when he heard this. After seeing Song Jiang's face, his heart tightened and he felt a little wrong. Even Sun Tu subconsciously stayed, frowned slightly, not knowing that something went wrong.

After coming to the two of them and using their eyes to retreat several servants not far away, Song Jiang lowered his voice and said, "Just just now, the county magistrate came up with a solution to the current case."

"Solve the case?" Sun Tu repeated this statement with some playful thought, as if he had guessed something. Song Jiang looked at him and said, "Yes, you should know that the Hutou Village on the west hill outside the city is not easy to deal with. The township soldiers in this county cannot be defeated at all. The county magistrate refused to ask for help from Jeju Prefecture, so..."

"So the county magistrate doesn't plan to send someone to arrest the relevant person?" Chao Gai also understood and asked hurriedly: "But in this way, how can those robbed birth gifts be regained?"

"The county magistrate means using money to buy from the thieves in Hutouzhai."

"What?" Sun Tu and the other two changed their expressions when they heard this, and they both showed incredible expressions. They really didn't expect that the government would make a decision to compromise with the bandits. Is there any prestige?

Song Jiang smiled bitterly: "This is Liu Yuan's idea for the county magistrate, which just solved the urgent problem in front of him, so he immediately agreed. Moreover, Liu Yuan also proposed that Jijiazhuang could not afford 100,000 guan of money, so..." As he said that, he glanced at Chao Gai again.

Chao Gai immediately understood what he meant, and his eyes twitched: "He actually put his ideas on me? It's so outrageous!"

"Baozheng, please listen to me finish my words. This matter is indeed inconsistent, but now the county magistrate has no other way to imagine, so he can only attack you. If you refuse to agree to this matter, I am afraid that he will take advantage of Liu Yuan's heart and he will take the opportunity to let the county magistrate fall into you for the crime of accomplice with the thief. After all, there were some statements that were not good for you earlier." Song Jiang persuaded earnestly: "So Baozheng can only aggrieved you this time."

After listening to these words, Sun Tu couldn't help laughing out loud. The black and white approach was too far beyond his imagination. County Magistrate Liu really dared to think and say something. For his own interests, he completely ignored the lives and death of the people under his rule. However, when facing the bandits, he was so ruthless that such a person could become a county magistrate. I don't know how many confused officials like him in the Song Dynasty were there.

Chao Gai's breathing became rapid, his face turned red, and his fists were clenched with his hands: "They are so unfairly framed, do you really think that I, Chao Gai, dare not resist?"

However, this anger was extinguished soon after it arose. As a local protector's family, Chao Gai did not dare to do anything to be an enemy of the government before committing a major incident. However, Sun Tu could guess that this incident must have deeply affected Chao Gai's perception of the government, which would allow him to do more bold things in the future.

"Baozheng, I think it's better to give in this. You can still get 20,000 to 30,000 yuan in 10,000 yuan. If it is not enough, I can help pay 10,000 yuan, otherwise it will only make the matter worse and make Liu Yuan's treacherous plan succeed." Song Jiang continued to persuade.

Seeing that he said this, Chao Gai's attitude was no longer as tough as before, but he still said indignantly: "I am really unwilling to be plotted against by others like this! Sanlang, how can you bear such anger?"

"If I were to go, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to come up with so much money." Sun Tu shook his head and said, "And as far as I know, there is actually no solution for this matter."

"What else can I do?" Chao Gai asked quickly, and even Song Jiang looked over. Sun Tu said seriously: "In fact, it is not difficult to solve this situation. As long as we spread the matter, the people of Yuncheng County, and even people from other places, know that the birthday gift was robbed by the thieves from Hutouzhai. Naturally, the county magistrate and Liu Yuan dare not submit the matter again."

This is indeed the only way to break the deadlock - once everyone knows that it is the people from Hutouzhai who robbed the birthday gift, then it is not enough for Liu Magistrate Liu to give the superior an explanation to return the property, and he has to flatten the bandits. In this way, Chao Gai naturally no longer has to spend tens of thousands of chunks of money for this.

But then Song Jiang raised an extremely serious question: "In this way, the county magistrate will be completely offended. I am afraid that Baozheng's situation will be difficult at that time!"

Yes, as the saying goes, the county magistrate of Pojia. When local officials really want to deal with the people under their rule, no matter what background this person has, he can only be mermaid meat. This is exactly what Chao Gai is concerned about. As long as the matter is promoted, even if it is not his own, County magistrate Liu will definitely keep the account on his own.

This time, Sun Tu had nothing to say and could only sigh and stop talking. Now, it seemed that Chao Gai had to lose money and eliminate disasters and suffered a great loss.

After a while, he nodded and said, "Okay, I'll go to raise money in the past two days..." Just as he was halfway through, a dense sound of horse hooves suddenly came from the long street ahead. Then dozens of knights rushed over like a whirlwind, which shocked the pedestrians and vendors on the long street to dodge and exclaimed constantly.

The three of them were surprised when they watched it, especially Song Jiang, who showed a puzzled expression. Because he knew very well that the Song Dynasty was short of horses now. Only a large number of war horses existed on the north and northwest borders, and only a hundred horses were stationed in the Jeju Prefecture in Shandong. But now there are no less than fifty majestic war horses, which has never happened in Yuncheng County.

Soon, the team rushed to the county government office. After the leading man pulled the reins, the galloping horse suddenly raised its front hooves high after a long neighing, stopping the rushing. When his feet landed on the ground, the dozens of horses following behind also stopped. Everyone looked at the three people in front of him with a high apology. Someone asked, "Is this Yuncheng County Government Office?"

"That's right, Xiao Ke is the governor of the county, Song Jiang. I don't know how many of them are..." Song Jiang quickly stepped forward and asked.

"It turned out to be the famous Shishi Yu Song Gongming, but he was disrespectful." The man in the lead quickly turned off the horse's back and clasped his fists and said, "My name is Suo Chao, I came from Daming Mansion. This time, he was ordered by Gong Liang to come to recover the robbed birth gift and capture the thief!"

When Song Jiang's face changed even more when he heard that he had reported himself to his house. Unexpectedly, the news would be transmitted back to Daming Mansion so soon. Liang Zhongshu actually sent his subordinates to come. This time it was difficult.

However, Sun Tu suddenly felt a sudden change in his heart. He was still struggling with not knowing how to deal with the problem. Now, isn’t the person who has broken the situation here?
