A group of people entered the room then. The man that led the group was Xie Yunjin.
Behind him were magistrate Hu, grand commander Xu, magistrate assistant Yang, administrator Peng, officer Zhao, and others.
After Lin Dong told Xie Yunjin what happened with Du Lanzhu, Xie Yunjin was worried and ordered Lin Dong to keep watch on the back courtyard.
Therefore, Lin Dong was aware of what's been happening. He had reported the situation to Xie Yunjin just now.
Without another word, Xie Yunjin headed to the back courtyard. Since Xie Yunjin was Lu Jiao's husband and Lu Jiao was one of the most valuable guests today, Xie Yunjin was the honorary guest and sat with magistrate Hu.
When Xie Yunjin got up and left, magistrate Hu and others felt obligated to follow him.
On the way here, Xie Yunjin explained what happened in simple terms.
