More than two months later, one of the groups of people sent by General Zhenguo found Jiang Yueyang and others in Linze County.
During these two months, they traveled day and night, trekking through mountains and rivers, and suffered a lot.
More importantly, there were several times when Jiang Yueyang and his group had just left and they found the place shortly afterwards, thus missing it perfectly.
This time, they were ruthless to themselves. No matter it was windy, rainy, or even if there were landslides, they would not stop for a moment and vowed to catch up with Jiang Yueyang and the others.
As soon as they arrived in Linze County, they knew that Jiang Yueyang and the others were here without asking anyone.
Because as soon as they entered the city, they heard from the people in the city that a caravan had recently arrived in Linze County, and the people in the caravan tied up County Magistrate Liu with a rope and walked him like a dog.
Those who dare to do such a thing are definitely not ordinary caravans. Even an extraordinary caravan would have to think twice before doing such a thing.
Therefore, they all thought that the caravan that the people in the city were talking about was Jiang Yueyang and his group.
So they followed the crowd to see County Magistrate Liu who was tied up and walked like a dog.
Soon, they arrived at the event center and saw Lord Xiao Jiang, whom they had been thinking about.
The moment they saw Jiang Yueyang, they couldn't help but burst into tears. They finally caught up...
They walked forward impatiently, but before they got close, they were stopped by two Cangwu soldiers with vigilant looks on their faces.
"We are sent by General Zhenguo. We need to see Lord Xiaojiang immediately regarding important matters." One of them hurriedly took out a token to prove his identity and explained in a low voice.
After the two Cangwu soldiers glanced at the token, one of them went to inform Lu Yunting.
Seeing Lu Yunting looking over, several people hurriedly saluted him with their fists clasped.
Lu Yunting had seen one of them, nodded and said, "Let them come over."
After getting permission, several people hurried over and whispered, "Master Xiao Jiang, something happened in the capital, and the Left Prime Minister urgently summoned you back to the capital."
Jiang Yueyang subconsciously wanted to ask what happened, but thinking that this was not the place to talk, she swallowed the words.
She said, "Let me finish dealing with the current situation first."
A few people knew that now was not the time to talk, so they nodded and stepped aside to watch the fun.
I saw Xu An holding a rope in his hand, and the other end of the rope was tied around the neck of County Magistrate Liu.
County Magistrate Liu had a bruised nose and swollen eyes, and he was crawling slowly forward in the middle of the road like a stray dog.
The onlookers were furious and kept cursing at County Magistrate Liu, cursing all his ancestors.
Xu An whipped County Magistrate Liu on the back and shouted, "You are a tortoise, crawl faster!"
County Magistrate Liu cried out in pain, endured the severe pain and sped up, leaving bloody marks on the ground with his bloody knees.
General Zhenguo's men were curious about what happened, and couldn't help asking the Cangwu Army beside them, "Brother, what bad thing did that man do that Lord Xiao Jiang wanted to punish him like this?"
The Cangwu soldier being questioned glanced at him and replied, "Because that man once humiliated the magistrate of Linze County in this way."
Zhang Shen was puzzled. "Why would the magistrate of Linze County be humiliated by a small county magistrate like this?"
"Because the county magistrate of Linze County is a good official, he is willing to be humiliated for the sake of the people of Linze County..."
Half a quarter of an hour later, General Zhenguo finally understood why Lord Xiao Jiang wanted to walk the dog.
It turned out that County Magistrate Liu was the local tyrant of Linze County. He bought the position of County Magistrate from the previous county magistrate a year ago.
Seven days ago, the people of Linze County suddenly suffered from acute fever. There were not enough medicinal materials in the city, and it was too late to mobilize medicinal materials from outside. So the magistrate of Linze County asked for help from County Magistrate Liu, because County Magistrate Liu had money, food, and a large amount of medicinal materials stored at home.
County Magistrate Liu had always disliked the Linze County Magistrate and had long wanted to curb his arrogance, so he took the opportunity to propose conditions.
As long as the magistrate of Linze County was willing to carry him on his back and crawl around the county three times like a dog, he would take out medicinal herbs to save people.
The magistrate of Linze County agreed for the sake of the people of Linze County.
As luck would have it, when the magistrate of Linze County was carrying him on his back and crawling to the city gate like a dog, he ran into Lord Xiao Jiang and his companions.
When Lord Xiao Jiang saw that scene, Xiao Gua told him the whole story without asking anyone.
Then, Lord Xiao Jiang immediately had County Magistrate Liu arrested and forcibly confiscated his family's medicinal herbs.
After all the people in the city who have fever have recovered, that is, today, Lord Xiao Jiang will give the man a taste of his own medicine and make County Magistrate Liu a dog as well!
Originally, Lord Xiao Jiang wanted the Linze County Magistrate to sit on his back, but the Linze County Magistrate could not do that and declined.
Lady Xiao Jiang never showed mercy when punishing evildoers. When the magistrate of Linze County refused to ride on County Magistrate Liu, she made County Magistrate Liu climb from morning to sunset.
Otherwise, she would not feel relieved.
Just as County Magistrate Liu was crawling with difficulty, the sky changed color and it began to rain heavily in an instant.
Jiang Yueyang and others, as well as the onlookers, quickly ran to the eaves nearby to shelter from the rain, and Xu An also dropped the rope in his hand.
The bean-sized raindrops kept hitting County Magistrate Liu's body, making his body even heavier.
His clothes were soaked and stuck to his body, and the wound on his knee made it difficult for him to move.
Seeing him stop, Xu An pulled the whip in his hand and swung it hard at him again, "Don't stop, keep crawling!"
The people of Linze County stood under the eaves, watching County Magistrate Liu crawling with difficulty in the rain, and they felt very happy!
As time went by, the rain became heavier and County Magistrate Liu's face became paler and paler.
His hands and knees were covered in blood, and blood and rain were flowing on the ground.
Jiang Yueyang didn't like the rain very much, so she held Lu Yunting's arm and said listlessly, "Ayue, let's go back."
"Tired?"
"Hmm~"
Afterwards, they left two Cangwu soldiers to look after County Magistrate Liu and returned to the county government office together.
However, the people of Linze County refused to leave. They wanted to see County Magistrate Liu pay the price.
Not long after, Jiang Yueyang and the others returned to the county government office.
As soon as he sat down, Jiang Yueyang looked at General Zhenguo's men and asked expressionlessly, "What happened in the capital?"
"Your Majesty is addicted to elixirs."
"What?"
