s it a plea.

The difference was huge.
This young girl was also very courageous.
In the entire Xie Family, there was probably no one else who dared to speak to the old man inside here like this.

This sentence made the old man at the entrance of the ancestral hall somewhat interested.
There was some interest on that old face and an added hint of a smile.
He worked hard to open his turbid eyes and looked over there.
He had been here for many years and had never met such a special girlie before.

”Why? ”

An elderly voice came from inside the house.
That Xie Family ancestor said one word, but it was not just one question.

Xie Nandu said calmly, ”Because this is what the Divine Capital ’s Xie Family owes me. ”

She only answered this question.

Hearing this, that old man at the entrance of the ancestral hall gleaned an inkling.
Only then, did he realize that it turns out that the girl in front of him was that girlie who came from White Deer.

Hence, he recalled that ancestral shrine that was far away in White Deer and felt rather emotional.
Everyone had the same ancestor, but now, it was already different.

”Although your words are a little laughable…
there ’s some truth too. ”

The Xie Family ’s ancestor did not talk too much nonsense and just said, ”You originally could have saved this bit of apology and used it at a more suitable time. ”

Everything that Xie Nandu had experienced before arriving in the Divine Capital was tacitly approved by them, these old men.
They wanted to see whether or not Xie Nandu had the qualifications to come to the Divine Capital.
And starting from when Xie Nandu arrived in the Divine Capital safely, this meant that not only did she obtain the recognition of the Divine Capital ’s Xie Clan, but it also meant that the Divine Capital ’s Xie Clan would offer her some compensation…
or reward.

That would be the apology from them, these old men.

That bit of apology would definitely be something very useful at a crucial time.
But how could they have imagined that this young girl wanted to use this apology after just a few days?

She did not hesitate and directly stated her demand, ”I want him to live. ”

The sound of pages flipping came from inside the house.
After a while, the Xie Family ’s ancestor said with vicissitudes of emotion, ”That bit of apology isn ’t sufficient to go and help an outsider like this.
Moreover, that young man ’s matter is indeed a little troublesome. ”

A little troublesome.
Not that he could not help, it was just that it was not worth it.

The price was too great and the reward was too little.

Xie Nandu mused for a moment and changed her request very quickly, ”Then, let him arrive in the Divine Capital alive. ”

……

……

As early as when that wooden bird went to the Divine Capital, there were two horse carriages that already slowly drove into Commandery Qingshan.

The guards were seated on the horsebacks and let out a long sigh of relief.

The journey from Tianqing County to Commandery Qingshan was not considered dangerous.
It was just that thinking of traveling from Commandery Qingshan to Wanshan County afterward made them somewhat dazed.
It would not necessarily be safe and sound along the way.

In the cabin.

Mi Ke was wearing official robes.
Not the one before, but the official robes belonging to a county chief.

Madam Mi said sincerely, ”My lord looks much better in this official robe than the one before. ”

Speaking of which, this Madam Mi was also a major family ’s young lady back then.
After marrying Mi Ke, she had always abided by her duty.
Even if Mi Ke had remained stagnant in his magistrate position for many years, she did not have any dissatisfaction too.
Now, seeing hope after many years of perseverance, her eyes actually brimmed over with hot tears for a moment too.

Mi Ke smiled and said softly, ”Why are you crying, my lady? You never even cried during those hard days, why so today? ”

Mi Ke reached out to wipe away Madam Mi ’s tears and felt somewhat emotional too.

He wanted to say something more, but for a moment, he actually felt a multitude of feelings and could not say anything.

The carriage slowly stopped.
Outside the cabin, a guard opened his mouth and said, ”Your Excellency, we ’ve arrived at the warden office. ”

Mi Ke lifted the curtains and walked out of the cabin.

Commandery Qingshan ’s warden office was located in the middle of the downtown area.
At this moment, there were many civilians passing by this place.
When they saw a horse carriage stop in front of this government office and a man wearing official robes walk out from inside, many of the common people naturally stopped to look.

There were guards in front of the warden office in the first place.

At this moment, seeing Mi Ke who was dressed in official robes walk out, they were a little surprised.

But when they saw the official robes on Mi Ke, they knew that his official rank was equal to their own warden.
So they prepared to salute and ask.

Without waiting for them to speak, Mi Ke lifted his head and used a voice that he had never used in his life to shout with all his might, ”This official was originally Tianqing County ’s magistrate.
Now, I ’m Wanshan County ’s county chief, Mi Ke! I learned that Tianqing County ’s warden, Chen Chao, killed four foreign land cultivators without authorization and specially came to inform Warden Li! ”

The moment these words came out, the entire street became as quiet as death.

The few guards exchanged glances.

The guards in front of the warden office were also the same.

Then, the common people started discussing and became increasingly clamorous.

Inside the warden office, Warden Li who was sitting in the main seat also heard the voice outside the door.
His expression became rather ugly.
In a charcoal stove next to him, there was a letter that was currently slowly turning to ashes.
