Chapter 167

Now the officials realized the might of the two brothers. No one dared to step forward to stop them, they could only shout loudly at the side, trying to frighten away the crowd.

The Mo brothers ignored those officials who were like jumping clowns. They brought the people directly to Deputy Magistrate Cui.

Seeing this battle formation, Deputy Magistrate Cui instinctively wanted to slip away from the back door.

Mo Chuhan took a big stride forward to block his way.

"Deputy Magistrate Cui, stay and process our household registration first before leaving."

Deputy Magistrate Cui...

He cared about face too, okay?

However, when facing Mo Chuhan\'s dignified face, he felt a chill down his spine.

Looking at his subordinates who were cowering at the door, his anger flared up.

"What are you guys still stunned for, hurry up and drive these people out for me."

Seeing this, the officials could only tentatively step forward.

This time they were smart enough not to stop Mo Jiuye and Mo Chuhan, but went straight to Fang Chuanzhou and Xie Tianhai.

The two were scholars, and quite old. When pulled by the officials, they could only retreat according to the opponent\'s strength.

Fang Chuanzhou was also angry.

"Let me go, I have something to say to the deputy magistrate."

Hearing the voice behind, Mo Chuhan and Mo Jiuye turned around at the same time, looking like they would take action if the officials didn\'t let the two men go.

Seeing the sharp looks in the brothers\' eyes, the officials were so frightened that they shrank their necks, and their grips on the two men instantly became loose.

Fang Chuanzhou and Xie Tianhai broke free from the officials\' restraints and angrily walked past the Mo brothers and He Zhiran to Deputy Magistrate Cui.

"Deputy magistrate, isn\'t it difficult for you to not process new household registrations for us?"

Deputy Magistrate Cui did not expect that these people would dare to question him so boldly.

He had never encountered such a situation before.

Now with the officials being useless, and the aggressive Mo brothers glaring at him, Deputy Magistrate Cui was also somewhat frightened at the moment.

A real man does not suffer losses right before his eyes. Revenge can wait ten years...

Anyway, no matter what now, he could not let himself suffer losses.

Thinking of this, Deputy Magistrate Cui cleared his throat, and his attitude was much better than before.

"This official has explained it very clearly. Your household registration can only be processed after the new county magistrate arrives."

Hearing his words, Fang Chuanzhou and Xie Tianhai sneered at the same time.

Xie Tianhai stepped forward, "Although I was demoted, I was also an official for decades. I am very clear about the official procedures. Don\'t settle personal scores here by making things difficult for us with the household registration."

Fang Chuanzhou chimed in: "Has Deputy Magistrate Cui not read the Da Shun official system and responsibilities?

According to the law, household registration should be handled by the deputy magistrate. If you think this matter needs the county magistrate to handle it personally, may I ask, why does the court still keep you deputy magistrates?"

These were originally what Mo Jiuye wanted to say, but now both uncles had said them all, so he slapped the table heavily.

"I\'m asking you, are you going to process the household registration or not?"

Deputy Magistrate Cui already felt a little guilty because of Fang Chuanzhou and Xie Tianhai\'s words.

Being shocked again by Mo Jiuye, his forehead was instantly covered in sweat.

Those subordinates were also frightened like turtling.

He believed that if he dared to say no now, he would definitely suffer losses.

"Pr...process. This official will process it for you now..."

After all, these people would be living in Yun City in the future, and there were plenty of ways to deal with them. He could not let himself suffer losses.

After Deputy Magistrate Cui spoke, he nimbly took out a stack of blank specialized household registration papers from under the table. In front of everyone, he wrote all of their household registrations and stamped them with the official seal.

To guard against the dog deputy magistrate making trouble in secret, Fang Chuanzhou and Xie Tianhai carefully checked them after the household registrations were processed. Seeing no problems, they nodded at the Mo brothers.

The few people strode out of the room with their household registrations. Mo Chuhan even glared fiercely at Deputy Magistrate Cui again.

Deputy Magistrate Cui was frightened into another cold sweat...

Having just been deterred by the Mo brothers, the officials who escorted them to Xi Ling Village did not dare to bluster as before. Instead, they all acted like quails, only responsible for leading the way.

Not long after leaving the yamen, He Zhiran saw Tang Mingrui waving at her from the roadside.

He Zhiran deliberately spoke loudly to Mo Jiuye, "Husband, how far is Xi Ling Village from here?"

With the corner of his eye, Mo Jiuye also saw Tang Mingrui. He knew He Zhiran was asking this to inform the latter of their address.

So he deliberately amplified his voice and said, "I heard Xi Ling Village is at the westernmost edge of Yun City, I don\'t know the exact distance either."

Tang Mingrui nodded at them, indicating that he knew where they were going, then left with his head lowered as if nothing had happened.

Xi Ling Village was located at the northwest corner of Yun City, at the border of Da Shun. As the name implied, there were continuous mountains and steep ridges. The endless mountains formed a dividing line between Da Shun and the barbarians.

Just because the terrain there was steep and dangerous, it was not easy for the barbarians to come. Thus, Da Shun did not build city walls there.

However, although the terrain was dangerous, it still failed to block the barbarians. After all, crossing a mountain with difficulty was always easier than attacking a city.

Of course, the barbarians did not harass them all the time either, only choosing to take risks when they encountered crop failures or ran out of food in winter.

Even so, it made the surrounding common people suffer unspeakably.

Because they never knew when the barbarians would come, they often lived in fear and trepidation.

The officials escorted everyone for a little over an hour before finally arriving at Xi Ling Village. From afar, Xi Ling Village was nestled against the mountains.

Although it was winter now and there was no snow in Yun City yet, the tops of the mountains were already covered in snowy whiteness.

Before entering the village, they could already see the continuous farmland. It was evident that Xi Ling Village had a lot of arable land.

The houses in Xi Ling Village were built concentrated in three places. If one didn\'t know beforehand that these houses all belonged to Xi Ling Village, it would be easy to mistake them for three separate villages.

Mo Jiuye stopped an official and asked, "Why are the houses here divided into three places?"

The official habitually wanted to ask for benefits, but instantly cowered when facing Mo Jiuye\'s deep eyes.

"Let me tell you the truth. You offended Deputy Magistrate Cui, so he deliberately sent you here to suffer exclusion.

There are three big families in Xi Ling Village, the Cui Family, Zhao Family, and Zhou Family respectively.

The Cuis are all our Deputy Magistrate\'s clansmen. They are also the largest family here.

Although the other two families are weaker, they know better than to offend the Cui Family. That\'s how they can live here safely."

Peng Wang had already briefed Mo Jiuye about the general situation in Xi Ling Village, but he didn\'t know that this was the village where Deputy Magistrate Cui\'s clansmen lived.

If not for the official\'s information, Mo Jiuye really wouldn\'t have known about this relationship.

It seemed that Deputy Magistrate Cui had sent them to Xi Ling Village not only to let them suffer exclusion from several families, but more importantly, to get the Cui family members to take action.
