Early the next morning.
The officials from Nanmu City yamen arrived.
The County Magistrate led a group of people, and upon seeing Ye Liuyun, he hurriedly bowed in greeting.
"I am the County Magistrate of Nanmu, paying respects to Lord Thousand Households. My lord, you appear weary from travel, and yet I failed to receive you promptly. This is truly a dereliction of my duty."
Ye Liuyun gave a simple wave of his hand, not paying much attention to such words.
"Tell me about the case first."
"Yes, my lord!"
Seeing Ye Liuyun's manner of putting the case first,
the County Magistrate actually felt somewhat relieved inside.
He had originally worried that the Embroidered Uniform Guard sent this time might be the same as before—just here to seek pleasure and profit, never handling actual business.
Even if, in the end, nothing was resolved, they'd simply arrest a few commoners to take the blame.
