As Mu Changtian's voice fell, the bailiffs dispatched to escort them took out the keys to the prison carriage and opened its doors, releasing the people from Duke Mu Residence.
Since they were escorting the household of Duke Mu Residence, the bailiffs weren't very strict; generally, when they arrived at a resting place, they would open the carriage doors and let them out for a rest.
At this time, one bailiff entered the inn and said to the innkeeper, "Shopkeeper, we will be staying here tonight. How many rooms does your inn have?"
The shopkeeper said with a smile, "Officer, the inn is already fully booked. You'd better look elsewhere."
Upon hearing this, the bailiff said dissatisfied, "What do you mean, fully booked?"
"What kind of joke is this? There's no village ahead or shop behind; how can you have so many guests?"
The innkeeper replied, "It's precisely because there is no village ahead or shop behind that people passing this road have no choice but to stay at our inn."
