Chapter 561: The Mysterious Appearance of the Imperial Emissary of the Divine Dragon

“It’s worth it! Third Aunt.”

On the contrary, it was Xiaofeng who spoke up from the side, smiling generously, “Xiaofeng had many misunderstandings about Third Uncle and Third Aunt in the past. It was Di Cheng who told Xiaofeng the details, and Xiaofeng realized how good Third Uncle and Third Aunt were. As for Di Cheng’s decision, Xiaofeng is aware and supportive of it. Also, my father supports this matter, so Third Aunt, please rest assured.”

“But…” Liu Sisi still wants to say more.

Elderly Mr. Di lightly coughed, and stood up from the chair.

“Sisi, this is my decision. I like this grandson Di Cheng. You are his Third Aunt, and the whereabouts of Third Child are unknown at the moment. They also kowtowed to you three times. You have done so much for him, so it’s right for him to call you ‘mom’.”

Liu Sisi thought about it and finally came up with a perfect solution.

“Let’s do it this way! I, Sisi, will make a decision on behalf of Ye Lei and accept Cheng’er. As for the family tree… please trouble father to add Di Cheng’s names under Ye Lei’s.”

According to the rules here, adding Di Cheng to Di Yelei’s name on the family tree means that Di Cheng is Di Yelei’s eldest son and daughter-in-law!

Elderly Mr. Di thought for a while and then nodded, “That’s a good idea too!”

“Di Cheng (Xiaofeng), meet Mother.”

Di Cheng and Xiaofeng kowtowed three times again.

“Get up!”

Liu Sisi was also happy! When Ms. Wang finds out later that she has lost a good son, she will definitely regret it!

…

Meanwhile, in the county, County Magistrate Su has become a frightened bird at the moment!

He anxiously paced back and forth in the back hall, wishing he could wear through the floor.

“What to do? What to do? What should we do now, and how could such a coincidence happen? Who is plotting against me in secret?”

Madam County Magistrate was also dizzied by his pacing and couldn’t help but scold him.

“Old Master, can’t you just sit down for a while? You’ve been pacing since this morning. Aren’t your legs soft yet?”

“You know nothing! My official hat is about to be lost now, how can I care about my leg pain?”

County Magistrate Su cursed!

However, he had not felt anything, but when his wife reminded him, he realized that his legs were as heavy as if they were filled with lead!

He grumbled, but he sat down in the chair as his wife suggested, looking worried and unhappy.

Madam Su hurriedly leaned over, “Old Master, are we just sitting here waiting for death, without any solutions?”

“If I had a solution, why would I be so annoyed and irritable?”

County Magistrate Su sighed repeatedly!

“Not to mention the disappearance of several groups of soldiers sent to Liuping Town, but also not a single message has been transmitted. And this surnamed Di… What’s so strange about him? Our soldiers clearly escorted him towards Gongzhou City. Even if he wanted to harm me, he wouldn’t have grown a thousand-mile eye and listened to the wind.”

“Old Master, it seems that you are overthinking!”

Madam Su, who has seen a lot, pointed out another way of thinking.

“Even if this surnamed Di wants to harm you, he is far beyond reach, isn’t he? At present, the most important thing is to think about how to deal with this Patrol Imperial Envoy, Lord Mo!”

“That’s true! I was confused.”

County Magistrate Su slapped his forehead and suddenly realized!

“What do you think Lord Mo is up to? Which side is he on? If this case is really to be investigated, I’m afraid…”

County Magistrate Su’s heart was in turmoil!

He had personally dealt with Cailian in the beginning, and if Mo Liancheng really wanted to investigate, it might actually lead back to him…

“Old Master, you should ask, who is this Lord Mo sent by!”

Madam Su was on point!

Just as the two were conspiring, there were hurried knocks on the door outside.

“Old Master, something’s wrong with Old Master!”

At the moment, which shortsighted servant was trying to stir up trouble?

“Damn it!”

County Magistrate Su was furious, he yanked open the main entrance, and spat thick phlegm onto the arriving person.

“Your bloody master is standing right here in good shape, what’s not right? Blind and useless thing!”

The thick phlegm hung onto the eyebrows of the person who arrived, and he didn’t dare to wipe it off.

“Yo-your, Honor…”

“It seems like you are the official’s superior!”

County Magistrate Su is still not satisfied, and he fiercely kicked the arriving person!

“What are you even saying? What use is raising such useless people like you?”

The person who arrived was in severe pain, he couldn’t help but cover the painful area and mumble a low response.

“It, it is Businessman Zhang’s wife making a commotion outside the mansion gate again, demanding to see you-your Honor…”

“Damn it! What the hell am I keeping you useless bunch for?”

County Magistrate Su was still not satisfied and kicked him hard once more.

That Zhang Shixin might have already died God knows where, but that Shen Qiu has been pestering him for the man every two or three days. Where is he supposed to find someone to hand over? It’s just a useless bunch of troublemakers!

“But, but… We cannot hold her back!”

The person who arrived had a wretched expression on his face, thinking about how unlucky he was today!

“If you can’t hold her back, all of you can get lost! All just a bunch of waste!”

“Yes, yes, yes…”

The person tumbled and crawled, running away swiftly. It was as if a ghost was chasing after him from behind.

“Your Honor!” Someone dressed as a governmental office’s runner entered the courtyard.

“What now?”

County Magistrate Su cursed and grumbled, the anger in his heart still could not be vented, but he had to suppress it forcefully.

“Your Honor!”

The person greeted with a fist and a bow.

“The officials escorting Lord Di and the others have already entered the South City Gate of Macheng County and are preparing to return to the governmental office. Lord Mo has asked the Old Master to come and assist in the trial of this case.”

“What? How could it be so fast? Has this surnamed Di already arrived in the county?”

County Magistrate Su’s heart was pounding, how come he didn’t get any news?

Mrs. Su thought of something else, “How is the situation with Lord Xin Quan?”

“Lord Xin has also been summoned to the court by Lord Mo.”

“This… Old Master, how high-ranking is Lord Mo? Could he be even higher-ranking than the Governor of Gongzhou Prefecture and Chengdu Prefecture?”

“Idiot! Really, women have long hair but short insight!”

County Magistrate Su scolded loudly, “Chengdu Prefecture governs Gongzhou, Dazhou, Luzhou, Zizhou, Yazhou, Maozhou, and other places, while the appointed Patrol Imperial Envoy Lord Mo has jurisdiction over Chengdu Prefecture, Jiangling Prefecture, Xingyuan Prefecture, and other territories. He can freely dismiss and promote officials, and he represents His Majesty the current Emperor on his travels. Now you tell me, who is superior and who is inferior?”

Mrs. Su shrank her head when being scolded, hesitating to speak, “So, should you go or not go?”

“How can I not go, of course, I have to go!”

County Magistrate Su made up his mind and ordered, “Quickly, get my official robe. I want to see, without evidence, how he can deal with me?”

The followers moved swiftly, quickly fetching the official robe and carefully helping him put it on.
