Upon hearing this, Magistrate Liao started to wish that he did not know Old Master Yan at all.
But everyone in Fuping County, including these villagers, knew that Magistrate Liao and Old Master Yan were on the same boat!
"Who else could it be, it must have been Magistrate Liao! If not for Magistrate Liao, how could he be so dauntless? Officials and businessmen colluding with one another, this is why we are always on the losing end!" The villagers were getting more agitated as they spoke. This was especially the case for some of the older farmers. They saw Old Master Yan and Magistrate Liao as their own enemies, with angry faces and hurried steps they surrounded them both and questioned them!
The guards responsible for rescuing Magistrate Liao in this situation were blocked by Da Xiong outside, they had no way of entering.
In a flash, the whole field was in chaos. Grumbles and curses on Magistrate Liao and Old Master Yan could be heard everywhere.
