"No need to be so polite. We have just arrived in Ba County and we still have many things to trouble you with."
Zhao Jun raised his hand and asked them to get up.
"Of course, sir. Please come in."
Zhu Lin smiled warmly and led Zhao Jun into the county magistrate's mansion.

Zhu Lin explained.
When he said this, Zhao Jun and the others understood.
She asked why the road to Ba County was so convenient.
