Capítulo 333: Chapter 333, female scholar Enke

Lu Chen gestured for the palace servant to bring a chair for Qiao Jinniang.

Qiao Jinniang sat down and said, “There is a saying among the people that a county official is not as important as a county official. Although the county magistrate is a high-ranking official, many farmers will never see the county magistrate in their entire lives. It is better for them to have more power than Li Zhenglai.

For them, they would only defend their home and country if the northern desert, Xiliang, and other foreign tribes invaded..

As long as there was a rebellion, they would not be loyal to the emperor. To the people, it was the same for the emperor. It could be the Lu family or the Wang family or the Li family.

In times of war, the people would just drift along with the flow. Those who were unlucky would be recruited into the army as soldiers. They did not even know who they were fighting for.
