"Why?" Lv Xia couldn't help asking, knowing well that he shouldn't speak much with Tang Ziqian to avoid any slip-ups.
He had a favorable impression of the young County Captain.
In the two times of ambush when he went to report the case, County Captain Xue met him personally and comforted him, a rare kind-hearted person.
"Because he submitted a higher-level plea to overturn my case—" Tang Ziqian explained briefly, then sighed half-truthfully, "Actually, he didn't have to do that. This matter was not for a lowly County Captain to step in. By doing so, he offended many people both openly and secretly and had to resign and retire. Alas... who knows what he's after?"
Lv Xia was stunned for a long time before softly saying, "Probably for peace of mind..."
...
"Lv Xia has confessed!" Tang Ziqian said with a smile.
