When the people just found out that Mr. Li was tied up here, they began to think about who caught him. After all, in this small county, Mr. Li can be said to be a man who covers the sky with one hand.

It is said that his superior seems to be of the same school as him, so no matter how angry they are in recent years, no one dares to really confront him to avoid being retaliated against.

Everyone had already accepted their fate, but at this time someone stepped forward to investigate Mr. Li, took him to the market and publicly executed him, and found a scholar to publicly announce the evil deeds he had done over the years.

In the eyes of the people, such a punishment would relieve their anger more than killing him directly, so everyone was even more grateful to the person who caught Mr. Li.

Only an hour passed, and no one found out who arrested Mr. Li. Now that Tao Yaoyao came forward to acknowledge the matter, the people looked at them kindly.

The reason why everyone had no suspicion was, firstly, because they were unfamiliar faces, and secondly, their temperaments were so good that one could tell at a glance that they were from either rich or noble backgrounds and could not be offended.

Compared to them, that man was extremely ordinary.

The man originally expected to use the people to get away, but who knew that these people would agree with him one second, and then start to reject him and doubt him because of Tao Yaoyao's words. The man was anxious and angry.

"They are not the ones who arrested Mr. Li. They are important criminals from the imperial court. They escaped to our county yesterday. Please don't be deceived by them."

A man's lies come out of his mouth. He was relying on these people's dislike of bad people like Mr. Li. Who knew he would fail again.

"Even if they are really important criminals of the imperial court, as long as they help us eradicate Mr. Li, in our eyes, he is our benefactor, don't you think so?"

Over the years, the people here have been oppressed too much by Mr. Li. They have been unable to appeal and resist, and they are too eager to find someone to get rid of Mr. Li.

In their view, even if they are bandits or robbers, they can accept it happily.

What's more, after Tao Yaoyao and the others captured Mr. Li, they used the method they thought was best to relieve their anger and did not do anything to harm them. Since then, they felt more and more that Tao Yaoyao was their benefactor.

Tao Yaoyao did not expect that things would go so smoothly. Seeing that the people believed in them so much, when she looked at the man again, she directly expressed her doubts.

"You are here to kill Mr. Li, right?"

A flash of shock flashed through the man's eyes at first, but later he was worried about being discovered, so he quickly covered it up, but the guilty conscience he looked at Tao Yaoyao from time to time betrayed him.

"That's it."

"What nonsense are you talking about? I don't understand what you are talking about at all." The man explained anxiously, but unfortunately his guilty look was not very convincing.

What's more, at this time, Xie Lan's people found out his identity.

"Ye Ergou, a gangster from Liujia Village, was imprisoned for robbery three years ago and was not released until last month."

"What? I can't have women after I've been in jail?" Ye Ergou was acting rogue. When Mrs. Li saw this, she was very excited and said, "The girl is right, I really don't know him.

I have never met him. Although I didn't know the master three years ago, the relationship between me and him is absolutely innocent. If you don't believe it, just ask around. "

As soon as Ye Ergou heard this, he opened his mouth and wanted to make things happen between him and Mrs. Li. Who knew that someone in the crowd knew Mrs. Li? Although that person didn't like Mrs. Li's behavior after becoming rich, he still stood up to help. He testified.

"The two villages are so far apart that it is impossible for Mrs. Li to have seen him."

Ye Ergou thought he was stable this time, but who knew that such a person would pop up halfway. He was so angry that he retorted loudly, "They are just from the same village. Even his biological father and mother may not know her life well, so who do you think you are?" thing."

"Hey, I'm anxious and angry."

"This is anger."

"That means he is really a liar, but that girl said he came to kill Mr. Li. Strictly speaking, he is one of our own..."

Tao Yaoyao squinted her eyes and took in what the common man said and added, "He was betrayed to kill people and silence him. The person who wanted to kill Mr. Li was the one who brought him to your county to be the county magistrate. That is, Say, this person is the real evil person.

They are the sinners who have caused you so much suffering in recent years. "

Who is Mr. Li? Through the scholar's mouth, the people now know the things he did before that the common people didn't know about. The things he did when he came to the county seat were also known to everyone even if the scholar didn't tell him.

In the past, the people thought that he became so greedy only after he came here. Now that they know that he has been a bad guy from the beginning, everyone is even more angry and resistant to him.

Of course, the people are not stupid. They hate the man behind Master Li even more than Mr. Li who did bad things. If it weren't for his laissez-faire and connivance, how could Mr. Li dare to be so presumptuous.

How could they have lived such a hellish life these past few years?

"From what the girl said, Mr. Li's backer is a person with a higher official position than him. If Mr. Li is so bad, then the person behind him will be even worse."

Because they have experienced the days of being oppressed and unable to resist, they even begin to sympathize with people who have experienced the same things as them.

"Can we kill the person after we find out who is behind it?" someone in the crowd asked.

Hearing this, the others looked at Tao Yaoyao and the others with hopeful expressions.

"Since today's incident happened to us, we are not afraid to stand by and watch, so we ask everyone to help. If we can really ask the person behind the scenes, there will be one less corrupt official in the world. Our people's lives will also be easier."

Tao Yaoyao's words expressed everyone's feelings. The people's demands are actually very simple. They just want a stable life. As long as they can live a stable life, the affairs of the court and the palace have nothing to do with them.

However, since ancient times, not many people have been able to realize such a simple wish.

There are thousands of officials in the court, but how many are really good officials?

How many people are there who work wholeheartedly for the welfare of the people?

How many officials kept saying before becoming an official that they would ask for orders from the people in the future and be a clean, honest and good official. However, when they actually entered the court and became an official, they would see too much intrigue and the temptation of interests. Forget your original intention, forget your past persistence and original intention.

From then on, you disappear into the crowd and become like the people you disliked the most in the past.

"well said."

Among the crowd, a white-haired old man was full of energy and echoed with red eyes.

"The girl is willing to help us. We thank the girl. Don't worry, girl, all the people in our county will help you today, and they will definitely let him reveal the person behind the scenes."

After the old man finished speaking, the people next to him echoed, "He is just a homeless man. One person can eat enough and the whole family is not hungry. How can you threaten such a person?"

Some people worry that such people are not easily controlled.

People who knew Ye Ergou said, "He cherishes his life the most. As long as he threatens him with his life, he will say anything." After the man finished speaking, he ran over and said to the guard, "You hold the sword and fight against him. If you look at him, he will definitely tell you if he is scared."

Ye Ergou looked at the scene in front of him speechlessly, from being angry at the beginning to panic now.

If it was just Tao Yaoyao and the others who wanted to ask about the person behind the scenes, he might be able to fool him by fooling around, but if the people in the city helped them to force him, or even force him with their lives, he really wasn't sure. How long can he hold on?

But the man said that if he told him, he would also die.

He just wanted to make some money, but why did things become so difficult in the end?

"Why is it so complicated?" A powerful man in the crowd walked over, raised his leg and kicked Ye Ergou.

Ye Ergou was caught off guard by the kick. He only reacted after he fell. He stood up to curse, but the person next to him followed up with a kick. "Beast, you actually worked hard for the master of this bitch. You are the owner of our county." You sinner, even if I beat you to death today, I still have to make you tell who that person is.

If you don't tell us, we won't let you go. "
