Xu Ruxuan stood in front of Chi Xinian and asked her seriously and rigorously: "Have you ever thought about what the consequences will be if you lose?" ”

"You're worried I'm going to lose to the bandits?" Chi Xinian tilted his head slightly, and the corners of his mouth showed a meaningful smile.

She didn't answer Xu Ruxuan's question, but took a detour and threw the question back to the other party.

In fact, if others encounter such a situation, they must consider it again and again. In the end, this is the queen in the end, and she used to be a general with heavy troops, she seems to be confident about suppressing bandits for a while, and refuting directly is tantamount to losing face to her face.

Not giving face to this powerful man is not a wise choice.

But Xu Ruxuan seemed to be completely unaware of the twists and turns, and still went his own way: "The minister is naturally worried, after all, this crackdown on bandits is not only a fight between the government and a few bandits, but also related to the people's livelihood."

"At present, the Pingxing disaster has just passed, and the issues related to people's livelihood must be cautious and cautious."

"Governor Xu!" Pei Qin, who was next to him, couldn't stand it anymore.

It doesn't matter if this person doesn't give face to the queen, but he can't not give the queen face in this matter!

Because this matter probably also involves the problem of collusion between the water bandits and the people of the imperial court! If the Empress assumes their obstruction reasonably, puts them on the list of possible collusion with the bandits, and then sends a secret letter directly to the Emperor...

Then their career will leave a stain!

Now that the case is clear, the stain may be washed away, but if not... It's hard to imagine how many difficulties will be added to your career in the future.

Pei Heng naturally didn't want to get into trouble by himself.

In this way, he naturally hopes that Xu Ruxuan will be more aware of current affairs and not always talk back to the queen.

However, Chi Xinian seems to be much more atmospheric than he imagined.

After hearing Xu Ruxuan's words, she didn't get angry, but just chuckled and said: "You're right, Pingxing after the catastrophe is very fragile, and it can't withstand the toss, and the matter of suppressing bandits has to be done quickly and accurately."

"So don't worry, the bandit Bengong must know, but before you are absolutely sure, Bengong will never act rashly."

"But..."Hearing this, Xu Ruxuan couldn't help frowning again.

It's just that compared with the previous Geng Zhi, at this moment, he suddenly became hesitant.

"What's wrong?" His overly obvious changes naturally attracted Chi Xinian's attention.

But the person who was not powerful just now and dared to say anything, at this moment, he didn't say a reason for a long time.

After hesitating for a long time, he just said: "It's naturally good for Niangniang to have a sense of proportion in her heart, but the lower official still hopes that Niangniang can think about suppressing bandits again."

"Perhaps... After robbing enough supplies, the bandits will not be on the road for a long time.

"In that case, we may not have to clash with them."

"Perhaps?" Chi Xinian didn't agree with Xu Ruxuan's words at all, and the gentle smile that had been hanging on the corner of his mouth was replaced by a sharp edge at this moment, "Lord Xu, forgive this palace for being blunt, you just said that, it was too irresponsible."

"As the prefect of a prefecture, it should be your duty to maintain peace in the region.

"But now, you have to leave the decision of peace and denial in the hands of the bandits. If the bandits are in a good mood and rob us once, they will no longer make trouble, and we can live a peaceful life for a few days.

"But if the bandits are in a bad mood and come out to grab a wave again, we can only bear it?"
