In the back hall of the county government, on the small table in front of County Magistrate Lu, the meat porridge, meat pie, and side dishes were already cold.

The lawyer stood aside, not daring to breathe.

"Are you sure none of the three of them have come out?" County Magistrate Lu's voice was a little hoarse.

After hearing the master's question, the master dared to speak: "Reply to the master, that's right.

Fearing that they would be discovered, they did not approach to investigate. But it was certain that the people inside were not strange.

"That is to say, the three of them failed. They are the Three Heroes of Nanshan, but they can't even handle such a small matter." County Magistrate Lu said tiredly.

How many years has it been since he took office until now that he hasn't suffered from insomnia?

"Don't worry, sir. Maybe we didn't find the opportunity last night." The master comforted carefully.

"Worried? No, no, no. I didn't expect them to solve the problem. I just wanted the three of them to add some gamblers to that group of people." After saying that, County Magistrate Lu reached out and picked up the chopsticks, picked up a meat pie, but just when he put it to his mouth, he found that it was cold. He was so annoyed that he threw the chopsticks and the meat pie on the table together.

"Sir, I'll ask someone to bring up some hot food." The lawyer said quickly.

In fact, breakfast had already been delivered and replaced by San Zhao. He thought that the adults could not wait for the news they wanted and were not in the mood to eat breakfast, so he did not ask anyone to continue to heat up the food.

"Forget it, just stand outside and keep an eye on it. Report to me as soon as you get any news," said Magistrate Lu.

"Yes." The master replied and hurried out.

Magistrate Lu stood up and walked a few steps impatiently, then ordered the bailiff outside the gate to bring in some water. He even deliberately washed his face with cold water just to refresh himself.

After washing with cold water in this season, County Lu calmed down. If the three heroes of Nanshan really fell into the hands of the other party, they might not be able to withstand the torture and confess.

Not all the gangsters who do things for money are loyal and reliable.

I have already ordered people to go to two places to ask for help, hoping that at least one party will arrive before that group of people launch an attack today.

At this moment, it was not just Magistrate Lu and the Fu family who felt that time was passing too slowly.

After having breakfast, Mu Yingbao, a pregnant woman in the inn, looked towards the door from time to time. Why was there no movement?

In fact, even the person involved, Tang Yunzhu, was trying to stay calm while embroidering, but her fingers were pricked several times in the morning. Nanzhu was busy in Tong Xingchen's room in the morning and had no time to comfort Tang Yunzhu.

Xue Wenyu found it funny to see his wife's anxious look, but he also felt a little reluctant. Just as he was about to say that he would take her for a walk in the street, he heard hurried footsteps outside.

"Xue Wenyu, I'm coming." Mu Yingbao said excitedly as he walked towards the door and stretched out his hand to open it.

The person who just arrived at the door was about to speak when he saw the door open and the lady greeted him with bright eyes, "Come in quickly."

Ah, Madam, are you waiting for my news?

The subordinate was puzzled and said hello, madam, while walking into the house.

"Just get to the point." Xue Wenyu looked at his subordinates and couldn't help but ask.

"My lord, the people from Langzhou will arrive in about half an hour." The subordinate hurriedly reported the information he had obtained and how many people from the other side had arrived.

"Thank you for your hard work. Come on, have breakfast and have a good rest." Mu Yingbao saw that her man nodded and waved after hearing what she said, and then she spoke quickly.

The subordinate who reported the matter thanked the master and the lady and left. Mu Yingbao stared at her man. "Is the timing about right now?" Xue Wenyu smiled helplessly, took Mu Yingbao's cloak and put it on her. "Look,

You have seen things more exciting than this, so why are you still so uncalm, like a child?

"How can they be the same? Besides, our brother Hui is the emperor now. After ascending the throne, he has severely punished a group of corrupt officials who exploited the people. But how can there still be such a person who is not afraid of death? It happens to me that he can deal with him personally, which is the most satisfying and satisfying thing." Mu Yingbao said excitedly.

In fact, in modern times, what she hates most are those corrupt officials who take bribes and break the law.

However, she could only complain.

Things are different now. She has the ability to crack down on corrupt officials, so she naturally cannot miss such an opportunity.

When the couple was walking downstairs, Tang Yunzhu happened to see them coming out and asked hesitantly, "Madam, do you want to go with me?"

"Just wait here for good news, don't go with them." Mu Yingbao could imagine that the Fu family would not compromise peacefully today, otherwise they would not have agreed even after the deadline.

Mu Yingbao didn't want Yunzhu to go with him, as she heard the vicious words that the Fu family said out of desperation.

"Okay." Yunzhu knew in her heart that Mrs. Xue was doing this for her own good, so she responded gratefully and watched them leave.

"Yunzhu, I'm worried about my wife, so I'll follow her. Mr. Tong, please help listen." Nanzhu hurried out and asked Yunzhu for help while pointing at the bell hanging outside Tong Xingchen's door.

"Okay." Yunzhu responded immediately.

Seeing Nanzhu's figure disappear at the stairs, Yunzhu went back to the room, moved a chair, and simply sat in the aisle to embroider, fearing that she would not hear the bell when Tong Gongzi was too busy with the design.

Madam Xue and the others are busy with their own affairs. If you can't repay them, just do what you can!

Just as I was thinking about it, I saw Tuzi coming out of Tong Xingchen's room. He was surprised to see Yunzhu sitting outside. "It's so cold, go back to the room and wait. Don't worry, there will be no problem."

Yunzhu knew that Tuzi was referring to the Fu family and the divorce agreement, so she smiled and said, "Xuan, I'm not worried about this. It's Miss Nanzhu who was afraid that you wouldn't be able to handle it alone, so she asked me to keep an eye on it." At this point, Yunzhu also pointed to the hanging copper bell.

"That's great. The ladies can't come back for a while. Thank you." Tuzi said happily after hearing this.

Actually, Tuzi also wanted to go out with them, but Nanzhu had already gone, so he couldn't leave.

opened.

There were indeed some of his own people in the inn, but his master had asked him to take care of Master Tong, and he should do his job well.

"Ah, so it's about today's issue that's difficult to deal with?" Yunzhu asked guiltily after hearing this.

"No, no, the masters have other things to do today. It's not that your problem is difficult." Tu Zi felt guilty for his slip of the tongue and made the poor woman uneasy, so he quickly added explanation.

After thinking for a while, he said, "I'm going to get the hot water for Master Tong's medicinal bath. I'll trouble Madam Tang to take care of this place."

"Okay." Yunzhu responded immediately after hearing it.

As soon as Mu Yingbao and his wife led their people out of the inn, someone immediately ran in two directions to report to their master...
