“Yes.”

Bai Li smiled and nodded. “There are a lot of weeds on the mountain. After I get someone to clear it up, 1’11 bring Miss here to take a look.”

“Ehm.”

“How about these people…” He looked at the trembling youths and the silent girl.

“Take them to stay in the restaurant lodgings first. It’s inconvenient for me because of my identity. You can settle them down.”

“Yes, Miss.”

Liang Province County Governor’s Mansion.

Xie Xingyun toyed with the brocade pouch between his fingers lazily.

An extraordinary-looking man in a green shirt was speaking.

On his right sat Bai Jingyuan, whose expression was slightly darkened.

“…That’s all 1 know.”

Jiang Huaiyu pondered for a moment and said, “If the two of you still have any questions, Huaiyu is always available.”

“Huaiyu, it’s time to eat.”

At some point, a young lady walked in with a maidservant beside her.

Jiang Huaiyu said calmly, “Got it.”

Bai Jingyuan glanced toward the doorway from the corner of his eyes. Jiang Huaiyu sensed his gaze and introduced, “This is my wife, Madam Hai.”

Madam Hai smiled gently. “Greetings, my lords.”

“Ehm.”

“It’s time to eat. If the two lords wish to stay, I can arrange for someone to prepare food. I wonder…”

“There’s no need to trouble yourself.” Xie Xingyun stood up first.

Bai Jingyuan also stood up. “Then let’s stop here today. I’ll go back and discuss it with the Young Marquis.”

“Yes.” Jiang Huaiyu cupped his fists.

After leaving the County Governor’s Mansion, Xie Xingyun quickly disappeared.

Bai Jingyuan got into the carriage and soon, he arrived at the inn.

Jiang Huaiyu had wanted to let the two of them stay in the County Governor’s Mansion, but Bai Jingyuan was unwilling, and Xie Xingyun did not go either. The few of them would only meet when they needed to retrieve information.

Bai Jingyuan pushed open the door and walked in. Just as he was deep in thought, a weak voice sounded. “Sir…”

He paused and looked at the girl in front of him for a moment.

“You again.”

The girl’s eyes were red and swollen from crying, but it still could not hide her good looks. She took a step forward and hugged Bai Jingyuan’s leg tightly.

Bai Jingyuan’s expression was a little dark. “Get up.”

“You’re a high-ranking official from the capital and have saved my life. You’ll definitely be able to clear my name. As long as you say the word…”

Bai Jingyuan interrupted her coldly. “I’m not an idle person. The magistrate’s office will decide on your father’s matter.”

“Guards, chase her out.”

The woman shook her head tearfully and hurriedly said, “My father has been a constable for more than twenty years. He punishes evil and promotes kindness and goodness. How could he kill someone? There must be something fishy about this!”

The guards heard the voice and came in. When they saw the girl, they were stunned. “How did she come in?”

“I don’t know either!” The two of them quickly conversed for a while before helping the girl out.

Bai Jingyuan walked to the side of the table. There was a basket of fresh peaches there, as if they had been carefully washed.

After the girl was dragged away, she pulled the two guards tightly. “I beg you to plead with the Lord. I’m really at my wits’ end.”

A guard said, “Our Lord’s position is more than a few times higher than your highest county governor and provincial governor. A busy person like him doesn’t have time to help you do things. You should find someone else.”

“If everyone with a grievance comes to look for our Young Master, wouldn’t our Young Master be busy to death?” Another guard added, “If you have time to beg Young Master here, why don’t you go find evidence for your father?”

The two of them left after saying that, leaving the girl alone on the threshold, crying until she was out of breath.

A woman in gunny cloth wiped her hands on her skirt. She looked around and walked over. She brought the girl to a place with fewer people and wiped her tears. “Zhirou, is that Lord still unwilling to help you?”

Qin Zhirou sobbed softly. “Yes.”

She and her father relied on each other. Her father, Qin Zheng, was a famous constable in Liang Province city. Many people recognized him, but after being framed and imprisoned, she begged everywhere but met a wall. In the end, she found out that the person her father had offended was related to the county magistrate!

That was the county governor of Liang Province city! He was the county governor’s right-hand man!

That day, Qin Zhirou went home in a daze. Before she pushed the door open and entered, she heard a man’s voice. She panicked and fell. The people inside heard the commotion and immediately chased after her.

They even shouted that her father owed them money and wanted her to use her body to repay the debt!

She knew that this was the excuse they had made up. They knew that the chances of her father surviving were almost zero, which was why they were so arrogant..
