"My dear brother, don't be foolish. Didn't you hear the young master calling that gentleman in white Ye Zi'an just now? Ye Zi'an, the name of our newly appointed Lord Prefect, whom our Lord County Magistrate talks about every day."
The head bailiff finally came to his senses, "Yes, yes, I'll go report to the County Magistrate right away!" Wiping the sweat off his forehead, he dashed in the direction of the county seat.
Meanwhile, Ye Zi'an and his companions returned to the inn.
