A sharp-eyed official looked at the vast group of people in the distance and burst into tears with excitement.

"Commander, Commander, I'm afraid those people will really come back!" He was so excited that he almost bit his own tongue.

Their commander is not the only one who has been angry these days.

Who doesn’t live in fear and fear?

Losing all the prisoners is a serious crime!

"This... I'm afraid it is!" Zhou Daqing stood on tiptoes, stretched his neck, opened his eyes, and looked in the direction of the crowd.

His goddess is Daoyi, she even walked away, but she can still come back!

Zhu Li's heart was beating wildly, but he tried to maintain a calm look on his face.

He didn't dare to speak, fearing that it would reveal his fear.

The clenched hands were already soaked with sweat.

If he didn't find the missing prisoner this time, he would no longer be able to hide it.

As for the consequences, he couldn't even think about it!

He stopped the people who were going to greet him and asked all the officials to wait where they were.

If it was a dream, he hoped it would last longer and not wake up too soon.

"Yes, it's her!" Zhou Daqing was extremely excited when he saw that slender and petite figure.

Zhu Li also relaxed his tense nerves at this time and took a deep breath.

"Master Zhao, thank you for your hard work!" For some reason, Zhu Li blurted out as he stepped forward.

He couldn't explain how he felt, but he was sure that the fact that the prisoners could come back this time had nothing to do with her.

Zhou Daqing received Zhao Lingshan warmly and respectfully welcomed her into the inn.

Other officials very smartly counted the number of people in exile to see if all of them had returned.

After Zhao Lingshan took her seat, she listened to a lot of compliments from Zhu Li and Zhou Daqing.

Then it was Xu Zhimo who told Zhu Li roughly what happened in the village.

"The three carriages have been recovered, but the other items have not been found." Xu Zhimo finally revealed the matter.

"It will be good when the car is back, oh, no, it will be good when the person is back!" Zhu Li was still excited.

"But those three oxcarts are full of grain, which should be of some help." Xu Zhimo continued.

How all materials are distributed is the owner's wish, and is just relayed by him.

In the end, Zhao Lingshan asked for two horse-drawn carriages and an ox-cart for hauling things, and left the rest to Zhu Li.

This made Zhu Li extremely happy. He originally thought that everything was gone, but now there are still so many supplies.

The rest of the journey would also give him a break, giving him enough time to think of a solution.

"Report to the commander, the number of exiles has been counted, and there is not a single one missing!" An official came in and happily reported to Zhu Li.

"Okay, let's let them have a rest and start again tomorrow morning." Zhu Li smiled with satisfaction and cast admiring glances at Zhao Lingshan.

Although there was a pause for a few days, he was no longer in such a hurry when he came back.

Let the team rest for a while and return to exile tomorrow.

"Arrange a room for Mr. Zhao and the others and let them have a good rest!" Zhu Li decided that he would treat her as a great benefactor in the future.

"Yes, Commander!" After his subordinates accepted the order, they did not leave immediately.

Instead, he stood there, looking like he was hesitant to speak.

"What, is there anything else?" Zhu Li asked impatiently.

"Well, it's not something, it's just..." The subordinate hesitated, unable to speak clearly.

"Say!" Zhu Li slapped the table with one hand, and the sound made his subordinates tremble.

"The exiled prisoners have all lost their shackles. I'm afraid it will be difficult to control them later." The official was startled, but he no longer had any worries.

"What are you afraid of? Since they can come back, it means they won't run away."

"Master Zhao and the others haven't worn them all this time, haven't they?"

"It turned out that such a big thing happened, why didn't they bring everyone back for us!" Zhu Li took the opportunity to flatter him again.

"Also... and the other thing is that the head of the Zhao family brought back two more people..." After finishing speaking, he immediately observed Zhao Lingshan's reaction.

If something you say makes her unhappy, you must always be ready to kneel down and admit your mistake.

This weak and beautiful woman has great abilities!

What if I accidentally offend her and she turns around and takes everyone away?

However, there was something strange in the team, and he had to report it truthfully and let the commander make a decision.

"Oh, who are they?" Zhu Li was calmer on the contrary.

As long as it didn't affect the team's exile, he wasn't worried about two more people.

The most important thing is that these two people were brought back by Zhao Lingshan.

"Coming back to the commander, there is a man and a woman. The woman is mute, and the man..." He didn't know how to describe it.

Call it a monster, but I'm afraid of offending the Zhao family leader.

But to say that he is an ordinary person, there is nothing ordinary about his appearance.

Zhu Li also started to be a little curious about who she had brought back.

I had been focusing on welcoming her before, and I really didn't notice these changes in the team.

"Ada, come here!" Zhao Lingshan's voice was not loud, but those who heard her order ran over happily.

With a few "dong dong" sounds, Ah Da came to the door.

The moment Zhu Li saw him, he admired Zhao Lingshan extremely.

How wise she was in not opening her mouth to let people in!

Such a big guy, if he had to be allowed in, he would probably squeeze through the door frame!

"He and the mute girl were the ones I brought down from the mountain."

"The successful escape this time was indispensable to the cooperation of the two of them."

"So, is it okay if I take them with me?" Zhao Lingshan seemed to be asking for advice, but there was no hint of discussion in her tone.

"Of course not, absolutely no problem!" Zhu immediately made his position clear.

Seeing this huge man being so submissive to Zhao Lingshan, Zhu Li was not worried at all that he would cause any trouble.

"So, I'm going back to my room to rest." Zhao Lingshan didn't want to continue chatting with him.

"Master Zhao, go slowly, I'll have dinner delivered to you!" Zhu Li smiled with a smile on his face, and he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

He didn't know why, but he always felt an inexplicable sense of oppression when facing her.

I'm afraid that he won't be able to complete the things that he was asked to "take special care" of her.

Now he can't control so much. Anyway, the emperor is far away today, and no one knows what he did.

It's important to do your job well, everything else is trivial.

Zhao Lingshan and the others were given two rooms, one for the husband and one for her and Chun Xia Qiu Dong.

"Call the mute girl in." After she sat down, she told Chunxi to call someone.

Because the mute woman did not enter the room after going upstairs, but respectfully guarded the door.
