Female supremacy: leading the whole family to change their family

Chapter 106 Planning to Suppress Bandits

Gu Yao would naturally not violate these taboos. After all, she has no strength now and is not the top leader of Shicheng.

She has a family behind her, so she only hopes to achieve her goal in a peaceful way so that the people here can live a good life.

When Gu Yao visited a village, she found that the village here was even more miserable. Almost everyone had a sad look on their face, and some people could only wear one piece of clothing together.

"Xiaoshu, go ask them what happened. If they have some difficulties, you can ask them to tell us."

Because Gu Yao and the others were wearing official uniforms, the common people looked at them with fear and expectation.

Gu Yao didn't know why they looked at her like that, but she was willing to spare some patience to listen to what they were talking about.

She had never seen such eyes when she visited other villages, and had never seen such poverty.

At this time, a white-haired woman came to their village, looking a little timid.

But he still stepped forward boldly and said, "Ladies, our village is really in trouble. May I ask if you ladies are adults and can help our village? Our village is really in trouble."

The woman started to cry as she spoke, and the villagers behind them also started to cry, looking very desperate.

Gu Yao stepped forward and said, "If you have any difficulties, please tell us. I am the sixth-rank judge of Shicheng. I am specially assigned to go to the countryside to investigate some matters of the villagers. As long as you need my help, I will definitely do my best to help you."

This woman is the village chief, although she doesn’t know what the title of Tongpan means.

But thinking that he must be an official, he knelt down and said, "Master Tongpan, please help us, we can't survive. Our village has been harassed by bandits. Any food we have is taken away by them. If the villagers hadn't hidden it, they would have starved to death. Now the villagers have nothing to wear. A family only has one piece of clothing and can't go out. Many elderly people have starved to death during this period. Master Tongpan, please help us."

Gu Yao was very angry after hearing this. She didn't expect these bandits to be so rampant and actually treated the village as a sheep farm and fleeced the sheep.

"Have you reported this to the county magistrate? She probably won't bother with you."

Gu Yao thought that since such a big thing had happened, the county magistrate should be able to find a way to deal with it. After all, this was within her jurisdiction.

The village chief burst into tears when he heard this: "The county magistrate is simply unable to control the bandits. After controlling us once or twice, she no longer cares about us and lets us fend for ourselves. Even many women in our village were killed by the bandits for resisting them. Many handsome men in our village were captured by the bandits and taken to the mountains. So we can't do anything about it."

After hearing this, Gu Xiaoshu said angrily: "Madam, let's go and suppress the bandits and arrest all of them. I don't believe that there is no law in the world and they dare to hurt the people like this."

Gu Xiaoshu has been following Gu Yao for a long time and has gained some momentum, and he is scary when he gets angry.

Although I was afraid of her behavior, I thought these people were good people and was willing to stand up for them.

They knelt down immediately and said, "Sir, please help us. As long as we can live a peaceful life, we are willing to give you all the food in our home. Then we will erect a longevity monument for you to bless you with a long life."

Ordinary people have no other ideas. They just want to live with dignity, to have enough food and clothing, and they don’t mind even if their life is a little hard.

No one in this village can do this, so they are so desperate and have no courage to live.

Gu Yao thought for a moment and said, "We will be in the village for the time being. Once we get rid of the bandits, your life will be much better. I will also report to the county magistrate, so don't worry."

Since she has already seen it, Gu Yao will naturally not pretend to be blind.

Otherwise, why would she become an official? She might as well just lie down in the capital.

When the villagers heard this, they were very excited and immediately knelt down and kowtowed to Gu Yao several times.

"Thank you, thank you so much, sir, you are our savior. But the bandit is very cruel and has great martial arts skills. I am afraid he might hurt you."

Gu Yao smiled and said, "It's okay. The guards behind me are all good fighters. You guys should go back first and don't show your heads during this period."

Gu Yao already had a plan in mind. Moreover, if this bandit was not dealt with, the nearby villages would become like this one.

They have already squeezed enough money out of the village, so they must have already thought about finding another target.

While the villagers were worried, Gu Yao was setting up a camp at the entrance of the village. She looked at Gu Xiaoshu and said, "Xiaoshu, we will get rid of this bandit in the next two days. Send someone up the mountain to find out what the bandits are doing and how many people they have."

Gu Yao thought that she still needed to see if there was any escort agency in the county, and then she could cooperate with them when the time comes.

They even had to get an order from the county yamen runners, otherwise it would not work with just the five guards.

Gu Xiaoshu then went up the mountain with a guard who was particularly skilled.

Gu Yao had already gone to the county town and found County Magistrate Han.

County Magistrate Han was originally in her own residence, happily reuniting with her husband.

When she heard the servants say that, her eyes widened: "What did you say? The judge is here, why am I here?"

"Sir, I don't know either, but I heard that the judge said she wants to see you. She is in the government office now."

When County Magistrate Han heard this, he quickly put on his clothes and was ready to leave. His husband naturally didn't want him to leave. After all, he had finally managed to coax his wife to stay with him. He also wanted a child.

County Magistrate Han was not a good-tempered man. He pushed him away, left the house in a hurry and went to the county government office.

"Your Excellency, I am here. I wonder what you want me to do for you."

County Magistrate Han naturally hoped that the judge would come and take a look, but not to interfere with her.

After all, he also knew that he could not achieve any political achievements in the position of county magistrate, and he just wanted to get by.

Gu Yao looked at her and said, "Master Han, I would like to borrow the servants from your county government. Don't worry, I just need them to do one thing for me."

She didn't want to tell her about the bandits. After all, she knew she couldn't do anything, so she thought it would be better to get rid of the bandits first.

When County Magistrate Han heard that he was just asking for a bailiff, he said quickly, "Of course, sir, I will let the bailiff follow you right away."

She didn't ask Gu Yao what she was doing, as long as she didn't disturb her happiness.

Although she was not a good person, at least she was not too harsh on the people. Moreover, she was willing to help when there were natural disasters.

But it was because of her way of dealing with things that the people in the county hated her. But they also thought she was okay.
