"This subordinate has only been in Nanyang for three months. I don't know much about any lord.”
"Only Lord Yin has a rough impression of him.”
Zhao Xing was the first to point out his position.
You see, I don't know much about anyone. I only have a little opinion of Yin Yao. If I'm right or wrong, don't blame me.
"Tell me the specific reason." Ji Liang's expression did not change.
"Lord Yin has been an official for decades. As far as I know, he can get an evaluation of 'Gan Li' every year.”
"Although his reputation among the people is not good, it is not bad either.”
"Although our Nanyang County does not lack capable officials, if someone were to suddenly take over, in terms of familiarity, they would be far inferior to Lord Yin.”
"When we encountered the bandits, Lord Yin did not choose to compromise. Instead, he personally led the militia to suppress the bandits. Although he failed…his intentions were good.”
"After he failed, he actually personally came to beg this subordinate. Even though he knew that he would lose his official position, he still did it…Compared to some officials who did not do anything at all, this kind of intention for the people was really rare.”
"Thus, this subordinate believes that it is better to give him a chance to redeem himself.”
Hearing this, Ji Liang sighed in his heart.
Indeed, with this comparison, Yin Yao could be considered a good official if he chose a tall one from a short one.
"This subordinate believes that if one lacks ability, one can learn, but if one lacks virtue, then it's hard to say who will hurt the people more.”
Upon hearing this, Ji Liang made a basic decision in his heart, but he still didn't say anything to Zhao Xing.
"Yes, I understand."
"You brat, hurry up and find some time to come to the prefecture to report on your work." Why do you want me, the provincial governor, to personally invite you?”
"Sir, you must be joking. This subordinate will set off tomorrow.”Facing Ji Liang's teasing, Zhao Xing replied helplessly.
After saying that, Ji Liang's shadow disappeared from the hall.
At this moment, Zhao Xing looked at the System Interface again.

Zhao Xing's gaze swept across Ning County's progress.
He could not help but feel a little surprised.
He had just finished talking to Ji Liang, and his progress had increased by another 5%?
"Could it be that my words actually influenced Ji Liang's decision?”
"And there's a high chance that Yin Yao will be left behind.”
"This time, I helped Yin Yao eliminate the bandits, which is equivalent to saving his life. He is grateful to me, which is equivalent to indirectly increasing my control over Ning County?”
Zhao Xing guessed. He felt that it was very possible.
In the official circle, he could be considered Yin Yao's benefactor.
"The system is rigid, but humans are alive. If I hadn't spoken up to protect Yin Yao just now, it wouldn't have been so easy to increase my control.”
Zhao Xing felt as if he had discovered a new continent.
As expected, when Jiang Tianming and the others began to return.
Yin Yao, the county magistrate of Ning County, took the initiative to contact Zhao Xing.
But this time, he came personally.
"Lord Zhao, Lord Zhao!" The moment they met, Yin Yao knelt down in front of everyone.
"Lord Yin, what do you mean by this?" Zhao Xing quickly helped him up.
"Not only did Lord Zhao save the people of Ning County, but he also gave advice to Lord Ji to protect my position…" Yin Yao said with tears in his eyes.
"Lord, you saved my life!”
"This is only what this official should do. The grace of saving my life…this official cannot bear it.”
"Do you know that I, Yin Yao, have reached the Xiantian Realm because of the imperial court?”Yin Yao asked.
"I've heard a little about it."
"This old man is already 128 years old this year.”Yin Yao laughed bitterly.
"The Connate realm has a lifespan of 200 years. However, it was very difficult for the Postnatal realm to exceed 123.”
"Without my official position and the blessing of luck, my lifespan will return to the shackles of the Postnatal realm.”
"If the Imperial Court sympathizes with me, they might even bestow me with one or two Longevity Extending Pills and allow me to live for two or three years.”
"But if I don't sympathize with you, I will reach the end of my lifespan in an extremely short period of time.”
"That's why when I said that my lord saved my life, I wasn't lying.”
"Lord Zhao, please accept my bow." Yin Yao bowed again.”
"From today onwards, this old man will always remember this kindness and follow your lead!”
After Yin Yao said that, Zhao Xing watched as loyalty appeared above Yin Yao's head.
And it jumped to 85% in one jump!
