Fleeing from famine! A rough hunter has a fox husband

Chapter 466: Officials

"You better run. Someone just went to tip off the government. Maybe they are going to look for the government officials."

"Yes, they just rely on the presence of people in the government office. Let's run quickly. We will all say we didn't know later."

"Yes, this little brother, run away."

The people around couldn't help but help this good-looking couple, after all they were innocent.

Shen Nuo also winked at Qin Yan:

"Hey, Ayan, we've let the tiger go back to the mountains."

Qin Yan whispered:

"Don't be afraid, I did it on purpose."

But still tell others:

"It's okay, that's great, let's clean it up together."

Their fearless attitude somehow made the people around them feel a little more at ease.

But some people still shook their heads, thinking that they were overestimating their own abilities.

The other party is from the government. The people do not fight against the officials. How can ordinary people like them possibly defeat those officials?

Qin Yan and Song Yun just didn't care. The old lady selling New Year's oranges looked apologetic:

"You'd better leave quickly. We can't afford to offend these people."

The old woman felt that she had implicated Shen Nuo and the other man. If she had not known about this area in advance, she would not have been targeted.

He even implicated the young man who was kind enough to help him sell oranges. He had offended those people so much that they would definitely not let this young man and his husband go.

She raised her hand to wipe away her tears, deeply regretting her decision to go out today.

Shen Nuo saw that she was crying so sadly and tried to comfort her:

"Old lady, it's okay. My husband is very powerful. He can kill someone with one punch."

After hearing this, the people around fell silent.

Just now, this tall man was indeed very powerful. Looking at the strength he possessed, he might be able to kill someone with just one punch.

However, I can kill one person, but what if there are many people coming from the other side?

"You are still too naive. Two fists cannot beat four hands. Besides, the people behind them are government officials."

Two people who looked like scholars frowned, as if they were worried about them.

Shen Nuo raised her eyebrows and smiled: "But my husband can do it, and besides, not all government officials are bad people, right?"

When others heard this, some laughed out loud:

"If the government can allow such a bully to appear, how can there be any good people?"

"That's right. If the government was in charge, we wouldn't be bullied now."

When they think about the "protection fees" they have been charged during this period, they feel their hearts bleeding.

Only one year had passed since the natural disaster, and they had managed to do some small business and earned a few taels of silver, but it was all robbed in an instant.

It is impossible for anyone not to be angry. No one wants to run away. Going home will be the same as before. There is still no money to buy new clothes for the wife and children for the New Year.

Seeing how they started out complaining about the government and now become dejected.

Shen Nuo and Qin Yan looked at each other.

“But if the government doesn’t intervene, who gave us the disaster relief grain and silver we received last year?

When you fled here to escape famine and contracted diseases, weren't you cured for free by the government?

Who helped you settle down here? Was your house in Huanghuacheng built by someone sent by the government?

Just based on the words of a few people, you have described the government as an unforgivable villain. Isn't that a bit bad?"

Shen Nuo's straightforward question caught everyone here off guard.

They wanted to refute, but when they first came here, they were indeed disaster victims with nothing.

It was the government that allowed them to settle down in Huanghua City, and it was the government that built houses for them, provided them with relief grain, and provided them with relief silver...

"But...but aren't they still letting those thugs bully us now?"

One woman burst into tears. Life was really difficult in the past. Why did she encounter something like this after finally settling down?

"Well, then when those people come, we will go to the government office together to confront the prefect. I, I am a scholar, I will go to see the official and ask the prefect."

The scholar-looking man said to Shen Nuo.

Shen Nuo saw that his stall was for writing couplets for people, so he must be a scholar.

When other people heard this, some of them stood up.

"I'll go too. If we can't deal with those people, what kind of life are we going to have here?"

"Yes, my children had no meat to eat during the New Year. We finally settled down, but as soon as we had a little money, it was taken away. How can we live like this?"

Everyone began to be infected by this sentiment. No one likes to live a hard life. Once one person talks about it, others will follow suit.

Shen Nuo looked at them and saw that they had finally come up with a solution and did not blindly think that it was the government's problem, so he nodded.

"Just follow us later."

When the others heard this, their eyes lit up.

Only those who crawled up from the ground sneered in their hearts and waited. They had more than one brothers in the yamen, and they just had to wait for them to come.

Let them drive all these unruly people out of Huanghua City.

After a while, there was a noise coming from the street.

A group of people walked towards this side. Qin Yan held Shen Nuo in his arms, and the two smiled at each other.

Everyone around came over subconsciously and stood behind Shen Nuo and Qin Yan. Qin Yan was a good fighter just now, so if Qin Yan couldn't beat him, they would attack him together.

Shen Nuo and Qin Yan didn't say anything and acquiesced to their approach.

In fact, Shen Nuo could understand the people's thoughts.

They are all people from the lower class, so it is normal that they don't dare to fight with the officials. When Shen Nuo just said those words about the confrontation with the government, he felt that they were already very aware.

The people in front came closer, and the people who were on the ground just now helped each other to get up and complain.

Shen Nuo saw that the leading few people were all wearing the clothes of yamen officials and had swords on their waists.

After counting, I found that there were five people wearing official uniforms.

I don’t know if there are more people who are involved in this corruption.

"It was them. The boy was originally meant to honor you, but the man next to him beat us up. The man also said that he didn't take the officials seriously at all and that you officials are all trash."

The leader of the thugs exaggerated his words, but Qin Yan did not deny it.

Sure enough, as soon as these words were spoken, several officers became angry and looked at Qin Yan.

"Who are you? How dare you cause trouble in Huanghua City? Don't you know that we are protecting this street?"

Shen Nuo sneered:

"Are you protecting this street? Or are you protecting the hooligans on this street?"

He thought it was funny and just laughed out loud.

"How dare you! We are the officials from the government office. Come, arrest these two people."

After the man finished speaking, the two officers behind him walked towards Qin Yan and Shen Nuo.
