The inkstone struck hard on Magistrate Lin's body. He staggered and subconsciously used his hands to support the ground to avoid being knocked down.

Magistrate Lin lowered his head deeply and said in an unprecedentedly humble tone, "Xiaoguan will send more people. We will definitely find the prince and the patrol envoy."

As soon as he came out of the tent, Magistrate Lin couldn't bear the unbearable pain in his knees and rubbed them with a grin on his face.

Gu Siyi was so angry that he knelt inside for a full hour. When he came out, he was limping, without two good legs.

The attendants of the Lin family rushed forward and supported their master.

"Master, Laifu is back."

Magistrate Lin was impatient and reprimanded: "If he is not guarding the road, what will he do when he comes back?! He thinks this place is not chaotic enough!"

The attendant lowered his voice and said, "Sir, let's go back to the house first."

Back at the house, Magistrate Lin's legs and feet had improved a lot. Before he even stepped into the threshold from a distance, he saw Laifu kneeling on the ground with his head bowed.

As soon as he walked in, Laifu kowtowed heavily.

"Master, I, I..."

Just a few words, but it seemed that all the strength in Laifu's body had been exhausted.

"What happened? If you didn't stay on guard on the road, why would you come back suddenly?"

Laifu tremblingly told the truth. Originally, they were keeping watch on the road, but they suddenly inhaled a strange smell.

Immediately afterwards, he fainted and lost consciousness. When his vision was blurred, Laifu felt that he had been kicked several times by a man. The pain was severe. He tried hard to open his eyes and see the face of the criminal clearly, but it seemed that he had been inhaled. There was too much smoke, and I lost consciousness before I could see clearly.

"Master, Laifu swears on my life! Those people must be the prince!"

Prince? !

Magistrate Lin was so shocked that he didn't even bother to kick Laifu away from his feet.

"Although I was half dazed, I vaguely seemed to hear the voice of Your Highness. It's absolutely true! Master, you must trust me!"

Magistrate Lin didn't speak for a long time, and his expression was also uncertain.

Suddenly, he burst into laughter, and instead of kicking Laifu away, he patted his shoulder hard twice.

"Okay, for the sake of your merits, I won't argue with you this time."

"Hurry up and call back the people who were sent out to search for the prince. The bandits on our mountain have not been eliminated yet, but they have the audacity to run to Jiangling County. I will not let him go!"

Laifu naturally understood what their grandfather meant, which was to find Gu Siyuan in every possible way in the name of catching the bandit.

The dignified prince was actually labeled as a bandit, how ridiculous!

Laifu didn't dare to say anything and responded cowardly. Without any delay, he ran out and called back all the people in Xu County.

At the same time, Gu Siyi in the tent became increasingly uneasy. He couldn't help but lean on the table and squint for a while, but he once again dreamed of the return of the prince.

Magistrate Lin was beheaded in public, and his blood spattered on Gu Siyi's face.

His good brother had a look of indifference and presented the evidence of his crime to his father...

Before he could see the ending clearly, Gu Siyi was awakened, and he made up his mind not to implicate himself in this matter.

If something happens one day, we have to find a scapegoat to escape the disaster.

As a result, people around Gu Siyi suffered.

"Your Highness, your Majesty, please don't dare. Please think deeply!"

Gu Siyi couldn't let his subordinates talk about it, and decided on this matter with paranoia and stubbornness.
