The two officers heard the words and immediately pressed down on Uncle Changshun's shoulders, forcing his knees to bend and kneel.
"Whoa! How did Changshun get arrested?"
"Could it be because he's stubborn and didn't offer respect, offending the military officers?"
"Quickly inform Master Qi, the boats can't set off, or business will be delayed!"
"The common people can't fight with officials, hurry and let Master Qi set up a table with wine..."
The villagers discussed fervently, shocked. To them, the authority of the County City officers was heavier than that of the three main families' lords.
Offending the latter might cost them their livelihood, but provoking the former could lead to decapitation.
"Ah Qi!"
Seeing his father arrested, Xiaotou panicked immediately.
"They're clearly looking for trouble with me, who is this person?"
