Chapter 545: Chapter 545: A Day Apart Feels Like Three Autumns
“Report——”
A government office’s runner rushed into the county government: “Lord County Magistrate, the scout reports that the messenger has arrived at the East City gate and will soon be at the government office.”
“Damn! What have you been doing? How come you only found out now!”
County Magistrate Su was both anxious and angry, he hastily put on his official hat: “Quickly prepare to go out and welcome the messenger!”
Originally, he had wanted to go out of the city gate to welcome the messenger, but now that the messenger had entered the city, it was impossible!
“Wait, I’ll go too!”
Xin Quan did not want to fall behind and rushed to follow.
“Lord Xin, how confident are you about this matter?” County Magistrate Su was still a bit uneasy.
“Just relax! My uncle has worked hard to his death. If you still worry, you’ll know the outcome in a while.”
The two men walked into the hall while talking.
As soon as they left the county government, they saw a steed rushing straight towards them. It stopped at the doorway of the government office, and the rider dismounted.
“So, the messenger has arrived! Quickly please come inside!”
County Magistrate Su was overjoyed and hurriedly welcomed the messenger in.
Meanwhile, at Liuping Town.
Liu Sisi instructed the servants to drive the carriage.
Originally, Ms. Gao was accompanying Liu Sisi, but now it was Ms. Xin who took her place. Old Cheng drove the carriage and once again advanced along the usual route.
There were two more people in the carriage than usual! It was none other than Di Xuan and Di Ying.
Liu Sisi had no intention of taking the two with her, but she couldn’t resist Di Ying’s tearful face.
Di Xuan sat in the corner holding YingEr, not saying a word. He just glanced at Liu Sisi from time to time. YingEr, on the other hand, pouted her small mouth. She had tried to get close to Liu Sisi several times, but Di Xuan forcibly held her back.
“I heard that Third Brother was locked up in the black prison. I wonder if it’s true?” The journey was long, and Ms. Xin was trying to make conversation.
“Of course it is.”
Liu Sisi glanced at her casually: “By rights, County Magistrate Su has no authority to interrogate Ye Lei, which is why the case was reported up to Gongzhou City. As for Gongzhou City’s attitude, we will find out today.”
She used to be ignorant of Ms. Xin’s identity, but since she began to gradually come into contact with the power of the Li Sect, she naturally understood what Ms. Xin used to do.
As for Ms. Xin’s concealment of her own identity, she didn’t expose it. After all, Ms. Xin genuinely wanted to say goodbye to her past. As Third Sister-in-law, she would naturally help her do so.
“Third Sister-in-law, please don’t worry. Third Brother will surely have a favorable turn of events.”
Ms. Xin seemed troubled.
“I hope so.”
Liu Sisi looked up at the sky outside the window but did not tell Ms. Xin that her own uncle was the Garrison Commander of Gongzhou City.
The carriage continued to stroll leisurely towards the county city.
A rider came up to the carriage and rode side by side: “Miss, there’s news from over there that the messenger has already entered the government office.”
“I see! Was it just the messenger alone?”
“Yes!”
So the messenger had already gone in?
At the moment, Liu Sisi suddenly laughed! It seems that the results were already out!
The carriage continued to move forward, and not long after, someone reported again: “Miss, the messenger has entered the county government office and is meeting with the Lord County Magistrate.”
“Keep investigating! Old Cheng, speed up the carriage!”
