Under the escort of Monk Huishi, Qian Cang came to the lobby of Juhe County Government Office.

Cui Heng is sitting here right now.

However, before Qian Cang had time to meet Cui Heng, he saw a familiar figure.

Fang Nanzheng, who was working with him as a close aide to Liu Litao, the prefect of Lu County, was doing this.

"Fang Nanzheng, you actually betrayed the Grand Administrator?!" Qian Cang's eyes widened and he couldn't help but exclaim, looking at this middle-aged man who was nearly fifty years old with some disbelief.

This person was one of the first cronies to follow Liu Litao. He had been following Liu Litao as early as when Liu Litao was still serving as the county magistrate.

Unexpectedly, the person who surrendered before him was actually him!

Fang Nanzheng also saw Qian Cang and sneered: "Yes? It seems that I did not miscalculate your temperament. You will indeed betray the prefect. You are really an immature white-eyed wolf."

"Bah! Are you worthy of talking about me?" Qian Cang couldn't help shouting, "If I'm a white-eyed wolf, then who are you? Prefect Liu is very kind to you!"

"I am a person who understands current affairs, and the county magistrate is a man among gods. When I saw the county magistrate, I immediately worshiped him and turned to the bright side." Fang Nanzheng had a confident expression, "It's not like you didn't even see the county magistrate's face.

Thinking of betrayal is a sign of betrayal."

After saying this, he raised his hand to Cui Heng and said, "Your Excellency, this person is ungrateful and rebellious by nature. Please ask your Majesty..."

"Okay." Cui Heng interrupted the quarrel between the two.

Monk Huishi immediately stepped forward and glanced at the two men with a threatening look, which immediately silenced them, shrinking their necks and not daring to speak anymore.

Compared with Cui Heng's calm demeanor, the murderous aura in Monk Hui Shi made them even more frightened.

"I don't want to hear about the grievances between you, and I don't care what that Prefect Liu wants to do."

Cui Heng spoke slowly and said calmly, "How many people are there in Lujun City, how many counties are under its jurisdiction, and how many people are there? Tell me about them all."

The information transmission in this world is extremely unsmooth. Even as the magistrate of Juhe County, he can only know the situation in his own county and has no access to detailed data from other counties.

Qian Cang and Fang Nanzheng were shocked when they heard this.

This county magistrate really wants to seize the position of governor, otherwise why would he care about the number of people in various places?

You only need to care about this when attacking a city.

However, now they no longer care about what will happen to Prefect Liu.

So he rushed to explain the situation of the entire Lu County to Cui Heng.

It has been two thousand years since the establishment of Lu County.

In these long years, the administrative divisions have changed several times. Today, it still covers an area of ​​thousands of miles and has a total of 21 counties under its jurisdiction. Ten years ago, a household registration census was carried out, which revealed a total of more than 1.3 million people.

There are more than 300,000 residents in Lujun City alone.

This is just the local population.

Lujun City is the hub of Fengzhou waterway, and there are countless merchants in the past. Adding these people, the number of people in Lujun City on a daily basis is estimated to be close to half a million.

The population of each county varies.

Juhe County is considered medium-sized. There are a total of 110,000 people in the county, 80,000 people live in the county seat, and the rest are scattered among the villages and towns.

"Previously, I only mobilized the emotions of 80,000 people in Juhe County, and collected the seven emotions of many sentient beings..."

Cui Heng fell into deep thought after hearing this, and thought to himself, "What would it be like if we could arouse the emotions of nearly half a million people in Lujun City?"

As for mobilizing the emotions of more than one million people in Lu County, he had not thought about it.

After all, such a huge population is scattered in various counties and towns, and it is impossible to gather them together.

Thinking of this, Cui Heng looked at Qian Fang and the two of them, smiled and said: "I will let you go back. Just report the truth about the battle here to Liu Litao."

"County Lord, I am willing to follow you to the death!" Fang Nanzheng knelt down with a plop and begged, "When I saw the County Lord for the first time, I completely admired him. Please ask the County Lord to take you in."

After hearing what Fang Nanzheng said, Monk Huishi's face suddenly looked as ugly as if he had eaten a fly.

Because he had said similar words, but now he was said again by such a guy. What did the county magistrate think?

Qian Cang did not cry like Fang Nanzheng.

His thinking was quick, and he immediately understood Cui Heng's meaning as soon as he rolled his eyes. He immediately bowed and saluted: "Qian Cang will definitely live up to the trust entrusted by the county."

Fang Nanzheng was stunned and looked at Qian Cang in astonishment.

The look in his eyes seemed to be asking, "What are you talking about? What does it mean to live up to the trust entrusted by the county magistrate? What task was just entrusted to you?"

"Trash, do you dare to compete with me for this kind of thing?"

Qian Cang was sarcastic in his heart. Seeing Fang Nanzheng's current appearance, he felt very proud, "It's meaningless to just kneel down and lick it if you can't even figure it out!"

"Okay, you two, please step aside." Cui Heng waved his hand.

"Yes, Lord County Lord."

Qian Cang and Fang Nanzheng resigned and left in unison.

After the two left the county government, Fang Nanzheng approached Qian Cang and wanted to ask, but he ignored him and could only watch Qian Cang walk away.

After Qian Cang took his horse, he hurried towards Lujuncheng.

His mentality now is completely different from when he came here, and he is no longer confused at all.

After listening to Cui Heng's words, and then thinking about the things Cui Heng asked about before, he successfully guessed the "supreme intention".

First of all, Cui County Zun must want to seize the position of prefect.

Otherwise, the population status of each county will not be asked.

And with his magical ability to control wind and rain, this shouldn't be a difficult thing.

Now let the two surrenders go back to you, and truthfully explain the situation in Juhe County to Governor Liu.

In fact, it gave Prefect Liu a chance to choose.

Should he take the initiative to hand over his position as governor, or should he wait for such a god to come and attack?

Cui County Master is obviously leaning towards the former.

I think it's because gods have compassionate hearts, so if they can avoid using force, there is no need to use force.

Moreover, in Qian Cang's view, this was also a test of the abilities of the two surrenderers.

Convincing Liu Taishou to voluntarily hand over the position of Taishou is the task Cui Heng gave them!

Whoever completes well will be stronger!

As for whether he will be killed directly by Prefect Liu after he returns...

Qian Cang was not worried.

Based on his understanding of Liu Litao, as long as he described the strength here as real and powerful, Liu Litao would never dare to take action.

Thinking of this, Qian Cang couldn't help but admire in his heart, "This County Master Cui is indeed a great man like a god!"

Just these few simple sentences have such profound meaning.

Not only does it directly clarify the strategy to deal with Liu Taishou, it can also achieve the purpose of testing the abilities of the two surrenders.

Kill two birds with one stone!

It’s really amazing!

…

After Qian Fang and the two left.

Monk Huishi asked with some confusion: "County Lord, what tasks did you assign to them?"

Qian Cang's confident look just now made him wonder if he had been distracted and missed something.

"How do I know?" Cui Heng shook his head and laughed, looking outside and said, "Let them go back, just because these two people are of no use staying here. It is better to return them to Governor Liu."

He does have a plan to seize the position of governor of Lu County, but not now.

We have to wait until King Yan’s army is dealt with.

By then, as long as he arrives at Lujun City, the position of prefect will naturally be his.

What tasks need to be assigned where?

…

The place where King Yan sits is in the city of Xiling County, five hundred miles away from Juhe County.

Although Yan Sheng did not ride a horse, he was a transformation master after all, and his feet were extremely fast.

It only took him less than a day to return to Xiling County.

It was exactly midnight.

At this time, Wang Shun had not yet been beheaded in Juhe County.

The soldiers guarding the city gate knew Yan Sheng and saluted him one after another.

"I've seen Yan Canjun."

Yan Sheng was not reused in King Yan's army and had always been a minor soldier.
