"Sir, not to mention those ruthless people who might threaten your life, if something happens to you, how will the people of Guangye City survive? There will be no one left to protect them.
Do you think we can rely on Mr. Shen? It would be fortunate if he doesn't try to seize the people's water and grain."
Even though these words are harsh, they are true. Mr. Shen is the chief under the governor, but he is greedy for money and never considers others in his actions.
However, Mr. Shen has connections above. Even if Mr. Sheng wants to reprimand him or report him to the Heavenly Court, it's hard to do so, and it might even bring trouble to himself.
"Alas."
Sheng Qingyu sighed heavily again.
As the parent official of Guangye City's people, he feels utterly useless for being unable to handle even small matters.
"Enough, enough. I only hope that person will disrupt Steward Hao's plans a few more times, so the people can drink their fill of water a few more times," he said wistfully.
