What a beautiful face she was, so the soldiers searching her naturally didn't suspect anything.
Their physiques are what they are: one is an old woman, the other is a frail, delicate beauty with thighs thinner than arms. They probably wouldn't even dare to watch a chicken being killed, let alone a human.
After eliminating the correct answer, everyone left. The old lady finished eating melon seeds and chatted for a while. She then tidied up Qi Qi's clothes to wash them, until she noticed the dirt stains on them.
aunt:"……"
Qi Qi: "..."
The old woman said, "Qiqi, what are you doing..."
Qi Qi smiled shyly: "It's normal for someone to know a few tricks when they're out in the world..." Qi Qi's expression was firm: "Who told that guy to mutter on the road that he was going to teach the General a lesson? You know me, I'd do anything for the General, even go through fire and water!

That evening, Lord Wu, who was supposed to be away on a business trip for one night, returned in a rage. The brightly lit courtyard was filled with people living nearby.

The bystanders who got caught in the dog food incident: "…………"
City Lord Wu Fugui was so angry his hair stood on end: "What?! The murderer hasn't been found?! Keep searching! Keep the fuck searching! We'll investigate to the last drop of the earth! I'll tear him to pieces!"

Gu Siyan said softly, "Don't panic, it's none of your business. We'll be able to go back soon."
