"Miss?"
The moment Xiyue and the other two saw Lin Jiuyue, they were all stunned, with a look of disbelief on their faces.
Lin Jiuyue nodded calmly.
"Well, Xiyue, have you suffered any injustice?"
As soon as Lin Jiuyue said this, the county magistrate beside him nervously raised his hand to wipe the non-existent sweat beads on his forehead.
The person has been imprisoned, how could he not have suffered any injustice?
However, the county magistrate still secretly prayed in his heart that Xiyue would say something nice.
"My lady, I am not wronged."
After hearing Xiyue's words, the county magistrate finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"Sir, I would like to speak to my servant alone. Is that convenient?"
When the county magistrate heard this, he said in a servile manner.
"Of course, of course."
After saying that, he left quietly.
Seeing the county magistrate leave, Xiyue took two steps forward and grabbed the fence in the cell.
"Miss, didn't you go to the border? Why are you back? How is your family? Is everything okay?"
When Lin Jiuyue heard Xiyue's anxious tone, she looked at Xiyue with amusement.
"Xiyue, what's wrong with you? Why do you still have the mind to ask these questions?"
Xiyue lowered her head and looked at her clothes.
Before being captured, Xiyue's clothes were considered good, but compared with the villagers in the village, they were still much better.
It's only been a few days in jail, huh? Xiyue's clothes have already turned gray.
"My lady, I have embarrassed you."
After saying that, Xiyue lowered her head guiltily.
"Everyone will encounter difficulties. As long as we can face them head-on, we still have a chance to turn things around. But if you give up, there is really no hope."
"Whether it's embarrassing or not is not that important. If you have to choose between your inner self and your appearance, your lady will definitely choose the inner self."
Is face valuable? Of course it is! But sometimes, when you can't even take care of the substance, what's the point of having face?
"Miss……"
After listening to this, Xiyue looked at Lin Jiuyue with emotion.
"What's wrong? Are you very touched? Alas, it's useless to be touched. You have already sold your body to me, your lady. You can't sell it again."
Lin Jiuyue sighed jokingly.
Uncle Li and Aunt Li in the cell couldn't help but burst out laughing when they heard Lin Jiuyue's words.
"Miss, please stop teasing Xiyue. She's almost going crazy these past few days in jail."
During their time in prison, Xiyue and the other two were constantly thinking about Lin Jiuyue's business affairs. Their mouths were almost blistering with anxiety. Unfortunately, apart from the jailer, they couldn't see anyone else.
Now that they have seen Lin Jiuyue in person, Xiyue and Aunt Li also know that their imprisonment is probably coming to an end.
"Okay, I'm not kidding you guys anymore. Tell me what's going on."
While at the border, Lin Jiuyue received a letter from home, but the letter only gave a general idea of what had happened. Furthermore, Lai Fu and Lai Cai were not very familiar with the details of the incident, so Lin Jiuyue only had a general idea of what had happened.
"Miss, this matter is actually my fault..."
Xiyue told Lin Jiuyue what had happened in detail. After listening, Lin Jiuyue showed an angry expression on his face.
"This Li family is too bullying! Xiyue, don't worry, your young lady will definitely seek justice for you in this matter and make the Li family apologize to you!"
Xiyue lowered her head, feeling a little depressed.
"My lady, it's not important whether I can get justice or not. I just feel that I have lost your face and delayed your business."
Seeing Xiyue looking depressed, Lin Jiuyue spoke to comfort her.
"It's okay, it's not your fault."
"Xiyue, Uncle Li, Aunt Li, there is something I need to explain to you. I came here today mainly to understand what happened. You can't go out yet."
"But don't worry, I will get you out as soon as possible."
Xiyue listened and nodded.
"Miss, we're fine."
After talking to Xiyue and the others for a while, Lin Jiuyue turned around and left the cell.
I thought the county magistrate had left, but when I walked out, I saw that the county magistrate was still guarding the door of the prison.
"The county magistrate hasn't left yet? Is he waiting for me?"
When the county magistrate saw Lin Jiuyue coming out, he smiled flatteringly.
"Haha, girl, that's right."
Lin Jiuyue glanced at the county magistrate.
"That's perfect. I also have something I want to tell the county magistrate. If it's convenient for you, why don't we find a place to talk?"
When the county magistrate heard Lin Jiuyue's words, he hesitated for a moment and then nodded in agreement.
Local farmers, businessmen and industrialists!
Although the Li family is rich, they are still merchants. How can they compare with the general's mansion?
If the girl in front of him has a good relationship with the general's mansion, he can no longer help the Li family target those people in prison.
Although County Magistrate Yang is only a county magistrate, he has been an official for so many years that he knows what is important and what is not.
"Girl, please."
Lin Jiuyue didn't hesitate and followed County Magistrate Yang to the guest room of the county government office.
"Miss, I wonder what your relationship with the General's Mansion is?"
As soon as he sat down, County Magistrate Yang couldn't wait to ask.
Lin Jiuyue said calmly.
"My Lord, what is my relationship with the General's Mansion? It shouldn't be that important, right? I came to see you this time just to ask what crime my servants committed that caused you to lock them up in a cell and not allow anyone to visit them."
When the county magistrate heard Lin Jiuyue's words, he was so embarrassed that he didn't know what to say.
"Well, girl, actually..."
Seeing that the county magistrate stuttered for a long time without saying a complete sentence, Lin Jiuyue suddenly became impatient.
"My Lord, is this question difficult to answer? Could it be that you, my Lord, are also unaware of what my servant has done wrong?"
Lin Jiuyue's words were a bit of a slap in the face to County Magistrate Yang.
"Girl, this..."
Lin Jiuyue raised her hand and stared straight at County Magistrate Yang.
"Since the county magistrate finds it so difficult to answer, how about I speak for him?"
"Haha, girl, it's actually not that difficult to say."
After saying this, County Magistrate Yang gritted his teeth.
"Since the girl wants to know so much, I will tell you the truth."
"These three servants of yours haven't actually committed any crime, they just offended someone."
Lin Jiuyue showed a sneer at the corner of his mouth.
"My Lord, I wonder who my servant has offended? Who is so arrogant that he dares to order you around?"
County Magistrate Yang hesitated for a long time before speaking.
"Miss, this servant of yours has offended someone from Jiangnan Li. This person was also reported to the Li family..."
