Unexpectedly, this village girl actually has some skills.

Seeing that Madam Ge was alright, they quickly went to her and began to shower her with concern and care.

Madam Ge never expected that it would be this Madam Bai who saved her when she was at her lowest point.

However, she wouldn't thank this Mrs. Bai; their positions were different.

They can only ever be enemies.

So once she recovered a little, she stood up immediately without even looking at Bai Shi!

After all, her daughter is that little vixen.

Thinking of this, and recalling what those people had said, Ge immediately began searching for Lin Ru's figure in the crowd!

"Why haven't I seen Miss Lin?"

"Where has Miss Lin gone?"

The maidservant beside her replied respectfully, "Miss Lin said she was a little tired, so she took those gentlemen to rest at Tiantian."

At this moment, Madam Liu immediately understood what Madam Ge meant!

"I think the theft of the national treasury must have been done by someone currently in the palace."

"But everyone is here and can testify to each other, so there was no time to commit the crime."

"But that Miss Lin is different."

"That Miss Lin doesn't rest early or late, she just has to go to rest at this time."

"And they even went to a side hall."

"It inevitably makes people think."

At this moment, another lady standing nearby immediately chimed in, "Who says otherwise?"

"I think we should go find that Miss Lin and see what she's up to."

"Among so many of us here, the only one who could have taken so many things away without anyone noticing is Miss Lin. After all, everyone outside calls Miss Lin the Goddess."

"Perhaps I really do have some ability in that area."

"Otherwise, how could they have fooled those ordinary people so completely?"

The others immediately chimed in, "Who says otherwise?"

"If this Miss Lin really didn't have some ability, she wouldn't have been able to make these people willingly worship a woman as their empress."

"After all, this matter violates the established norms!"

"And if Miss Lin really wants to rest, why doesn't she bring her mother along to rest with her?"

At this moment, everyone's eyes turned to the Bai family!

That aggressive gaze would have made Bai extremely panicked in the past.

However, she wasn't flustered at all and calmly looked back at him.

"Since everyone suspects there's something wrong with my daughter, why don't we go and take a look together?"

"Seeing is believing, hearing is deceiving."

“Actually, I think we should first check the state of the national treasury to see what it’s like before we go to find my daughter.”

"Otherwise, why are you repeatedly framing my daughter?"

"If word gets out, everyone will think that you invited us here not to be guests and to negotiate, but to find an opportunity to kill us."

Madam Ge sneered, "Madam Bai, you certainly have a silver tongue."

"Are you stalling for time for your daughter?"

"Let me tell you, no matter what kind of demons or monsters they are, they are useless in front of me."

"Keep your little schemes and tricks to yourself."

“My king is protected by a real dragon.”

Bai smiled but did not continue.

He was just following these people to find his daughter!

Gao Gonggong originally wanted to go back and report to the Marquis of Zhenxi about this situation, but Bai Shi stopped him.

"Eunuch Gao! Why don't we go take a look together?"

"If you come with us, you can also serve as a witness, can't you?"

“If you go back and report now, you won’t get any results. The Marquis of Zhenxi will probably be even angrier. You should wait a while before going over.”

"Besides, I don't trust any of these people, I only trust you!"

"After all, you are a trusted confidant of the Marquis of Zhenxi!"

Grandpa Gao felt that what Madam Bai said did make sense.

After all, when they came out, they heard the king's roar inside, so they must have been in a very bad mood.

They're telling him now that the national treasury has been robbed.

That would be like adding fuel to the fire.

He might as well wait until things have settled down a bit before reporting it.

Even when the Marquis of Zhenxi gets angry, he has a general direction to it!

And just like that, they quickly found the side hall!

On the way, they also encountered officials who were attending a banquet.

When they learned that they were coming to capture Lin Ru, those people were very excited and eager to come and see.

Two people were guarding the entrance to the side hall; they were Wu Juan and Wu Fei.

When Wu Juan saw the large group of people approaching, she immediately spotted her wife in the middle.

She happily bowed to her wife.

"lady!"

When Madam Ge saw that the maid only bowed to that village woman and not to the Queen, she was furious.

They also became much more impolite in their speech.

"You two, get out of my way right now."

"I want to see your master."

Wu Fei's expression was indifferent, while Wu Juan's face was full of contempt. "Who are you? You don't even give your name. How am I supposed to report to our master?"

Ge was completely bewildered by these words.

What does it mean to state your own name?

This is the imperial palace.

Why would she announce her own name on her own turf?

"How dare you! Like master, like servant. Get out of my way right now, or don't blame me for being impolite."

Wu Juan said nonchalantly, "Why don't you try being impolite to me?"

"You're a really strange person. I just asked you to state your name."

Do you think you're a banknote? That everyone in the world knows you?

"That's hilarious."

Madam Ge was furious. These two people were clearly lying through their teeth; she had seen them at the banquet.

As it turned out, the two men pretended not to know her.

This is absolutely outrageous!

She waved to the people behind her.

"Drag these two blind fools away."

"I want to see if there's anyone inside."

When Lin Ru returned to her side hall with her loot, she saw this scene.

She hadn't expected these people to arrive so quickly.

They didn't even bother to check the gate of the national treasury; they just came straight here to arrest her.

There is absolutely no trust between people anymore.

She looked at the talisman on her body, then at the group of menacing ladies and officials.

An idea immediately came to mind.

She quietly walked into the crowd, looking at the one ferocious yet familiar face after another.

Then, taking advantage of an official's momentary lapse in attention, he reached for the breast of another woman standing nearby.

The official was somewhat bewildered as he looked at the hand that had been carried on his back, especially since the hand uncontrollably reached out to touch the chest of another lady.

In his daze, his hand instinctively clenched.
