Chapter 92: Calm Down, Sir
Didn’t the county magistrate sign the document yesterday, agreeing to let them go?
Why did you suddenly change your mind today?
"May I ask Lord Ding, what does the county magistrate mean?" Song Hongyi asked in a deep voice.
Lord Ding wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, "A big incident happened in the County Magistrate's Mansion last night. The entire mansion was emptied. The County Magistrate suspected that someone did it on purpose, so he wants you to stay and assist in the investigation."
"What? The county magistrate's mansion was emptied?" Song Hongyi's eyes widened in surprise. This was something he had never heard of.
"Yes, so the county magistrate has issued an order that no one is allowed to enter or leave Changhan County."
Song Hongyi felt uneasy. He looked at Lord Ding and asked in a deep voice, "Lord Ding, we are escorting exiles. What if this delays the trip?"
Lord Ding sighed and said, "Captain Song, the county magistrate has no choice but to do this in this situation. You can temporarily place the exiles here and leave after the investigation is complete."
Song Hongyi frowned. This was indeed a tricky problem.
However, he had to obey the order of the county magistrate, so he had no choice but to agree.
"Okay, Lord Ding, we will follow the orders of the county magistrate. However, I hope that the county magistrate can find out the truth as soon as possible so that we can set off early." Song Hongyi said in a deep voice.
Lord Ding nodded and said, "Don't worry, Captain Song. The county governor has already sent people to investigate. I believe there will be results soon."
Song Hongyi chatted with Lord Ding for a few more words and then turned and left.
Although he was somewhat dissatisfied, he also knew that under such circumstances, he could only obey the orders of the county magistrate.
After returning to the post station, Song Hongyi summoned his men and conveyed the county magistrate's order to them.
He gathered all the exiles together, without telling them the real reason, only saying that the road ahead had collapsed and they needed to wait.
Although the exiles were somewhat confused, they did not dare to ask too many questions and could only follow Song Hongyi's instructions.
Lin Congyun stood in the crowd, listening silently to Song Hongyi's orders, with a smile in his heart.
What she saw when Lord Ding came must have been because of the theft in the county magistrate's mansion.
Since there was no need to hurry, Lin Congyun did not rest, but asked Wu Jinjie to find Zhang Liucui's father.
"Father-in-law, are you used to the long journey?"
"Thank you for your concern, mother-in-law. I'm in good health and there's nothing wrong with me." Zhang's father replied.
"That's good. We may have to stay here for a while. I heard that my father-in-law is good at carpentry. I wonder if he can help with some carpentry work here?" Lin Congyun asked with a smile.
Father Zhang was stunned for a moment, then nodded, "Of course, if there is anything my mother-in-law needs me to do, just let me know."
"Well, I don't know if this thing is complicated or not. If it's difficult to make, my father-in-law should not force it, so as not to hurt your body." Lin Congyun said a little embarrassedly.
"What the mother-in-law said is ridiculous. I'm idle anyway, so it would be good to do something." Zhang's father said with a smile.
Lin Congyun nodded and told Zhang's father his idea.
It turned out that what she wanted Zhang's father to help her do was to modify the carriage.
After listening to Lin Congyun's brief introduction, Zhang's father nodded and said, "This is not difficult, it just takes time. As long as there are enough materials, it can be done in a few days."
"Thank you for your hard work, father-in-law." Lin Congyun said with a smile.
Father Zhang waved his hand and said, "It's not hard, it's not hard."
In the next few days, Zhang's father started to get busy.
He first carefully checked the condition of each carriage, and then began to modify them based on his own experience and Lin Congyun's requirements.
Lin Congyun came over from time to time to check on the progress and discuss some details with Zhang's father.
After a few days, Zhang's father finally completed the modification of the carriage.
The modified carriage is completely new. It is not only more sturdy and durable, but also has some added practical functions.
The originally narrow body of the car has become much more spacious, enough to accommodate more people, and the interior of the car has also been carefully designed to be more comfortable and pleasant.
What is even more surprising is that the carriage was converted into two floors.
The lower level is a spacious carriage that can accommodate a family sitting on comfortable cushions and enjoying the tranquility and comfort of the journey.
The upper level is a small observation deck, where you can overlook the surrounding scenery, making you feel happy.
Lin Congyun stood in front of the modified carriage, his eyes flashing with satisfaction.
They had been staying at the post station in Changhan County for almost ten days, and there seemed to be no sign of them leaving.
For the prisoners, it is indeed a very pleasant thing to carry a post with them every day and not have to travel in windy and snowy days.
But the officials were getting a little impatient. They had wasted so much time in Changhan County and didn't even know when they could set off.
In the past few days, Song Hongyi took the officials to Changhan County every day to inquire about the departure time.
But every time I returned disappointed because the county magistrate's office never gave a definite answer.
Meanwhile, over at the county magistrate's mansion, the county magistrate was furious, his face was ashen, and he threw the teacup in his hand to the ground, sending pieces flying everywhere.
"Why did it disappear? The tunnel also disappeared?" the county magistrate roared, his voice shaking the study room slightly.
The master beside him replied cautiously: "Sir, please calm down..."
"Asshole!" The county magistrate shouted again, frightening the master so much that he trembled all over. "In the past few days, you have only said that you can calm down. Why should I keep you here?"
The master immediately knelt on the ground and kowtowed: "Please calm down, sir. I know I was wrong. Please give me another chance. I will make up for it!"
The county magistrate glared at him angrily and said nothing.
The lawyer was very nervous. He had been with the county magistrate for many years and knew his temper well. Once he got angry, he would not be so easy to appease.
"Sir, I feel that this matter is a little strange." The lawyer said cautiously.
"Oh? What's strange?" The county magistrate raised his eyebrows slightly and looked at the lawyer.
The master thought for a moment and said, "The tunnel was dug by me personally. It is located in a very hidden place and the entrance is camouflaged. Ordinary people cannot find it at all."
"But now the Tao has suddenly disappeared. Isn't this too strange?"
The county magistrate frowned, thought for a moment and then said, "You mean, someone deliberately destroyed the tunnel?"
The master nodded and said, "I think this is possible. It is also very likely that there is a traitor around you, sir."
