Duan Rong asked, "Now? Have the rioting people been dispersed?"
Zhu Zhengfu replied, "They have all been persuaded to leave. Wang Maochun promised compensation, and those clerks who persuaded the people told them that it was the work of supernatural creatures, not the fault of the government office."
"Supernatural creatures!?" Duan Rong's expression stiffened and he asked, "Who said that? The clerks in the government office said it?"
"Yes!" Zhu Zhengfu said, "It should be Wang Maochun's idea, otherwise those clerks wouldn't dare to speak arbitrarily, and their statements are all consistent."
Duan Rong nodded, asking, "Is there more?"
"There is more." Zhu Zhengfu said, "This humble one has been operating in the Divine Cloud Prefecture for many years, laying down some informants everywhere, and just after returning to the prefecture, I received some news."
