Chapter 121 Benefits

The voices of Zhang Zhizhou and Mu Zhengbai were not very loud, so Ruan He could not hear clearly. She could only vaguely hear the words "father-in-law" and "son-in-law".

They could only see from afar that Mu Zhengbai was holding his father-in-law's hand very warmly and muttering non-stop. They didn't know what the prefect Zhang had promised, but Mu Zhengbai was smiling all the time, with the corners of his mouth raised high and never falling.

What kind of benefits did Magistrate Zhang promise to make Mu Zhengbai so happy?

No matter how powerful Zhang Zhizhou is, he cannot take an exiled prisoner away. If Li Jiang reports this to his superiors, it will not only be a matter of losing his official position.

Just as Ruan He was carefully pondering their words, trying to hear some information from them, a voice came from the side.

"It's late at night. You should go back and rest. We will set out for the prefectural government tomorrow."

Li Jiangzheng walked over. He didn't look relaxed as if a major worry had been relieved. Instead, he frowned and spoke as he looked at the two of them.

Mu Zhengbai nodded, gently took his wife's hand, and walked up to the attic.

"Okay, Master Li, let's go back first."

When the two returned to the room, Mrs. Mu's family was anxiously worried about the situation downstairs. They all breathed a sigh of relief when they saw the couple return safely.

It was almost late at night. The family had been frightened all night and was exhausted. After only a few words, Madam Mu took Mu Yunchao and Aunt Zong and her daughter back to their original room as usual.

After everyone else left, the door closed, leaving only the couple in the room.

At this moment, the surroundings returned to silence.

Mu Yunxiao stared at Ruan He steadily, with a hint of hesitation in his dark eyes. After a moment, he asked, "How did Madam get the prefect's soldiers to come here?"

They fought with the group of men in black for more than half an hour. Although this place was very close to the prefectural government, those officers and soldiers seemed to have not received any news and did not come over for a long time.

And at this moment, a large group of people came rushing over again. There must be a reason for it.

This was just Mu Yunxiao's guess, but over the past few days, he had gotten to know his wife better and better. She was definitely not someone who would sit there and wait for death, and she would definitely think of a way in the room.

Hearing this, Ruan He paused slightly, his expression a little stiff, and then he briefly explained what he had just done.

"I set fire to several houses nearby that looked like those of high-ranking officials, forcing the prefect's officers and soldiers to come and put out the fire."

When he heard that she had set the fire, Mu Yunxiao was surprised for a moment, and then he couldn't suppress the smile on his lips, coughed lightly, and said: "Madam, you are so thoughtful."
