"yes."
I'm just afraid that good-for-nothing doesn't know Gao Wancheng's whereabouts either.
Zhao Shi'an returned to the backyard where Fang Qing had just woken up.
"How many more days are we going to stay here?" Fang Qing asked.
The news of their murder has probably spread throughout the city. I wonder if the people at the experimental field will still take good care of the crops after they find out.
"Three days at most."
Fang Qing looked at Zhao Shi'an.
"But what did you gain?"
Zhao Shi'an told Fang Qing about the Living Buddha Temple.
Fang Qing was shocked and then furious after hearing this.
How could the King of the South, as a local lord, do something to harm the people just because of the sorcerer's words?

Zhao Shi'an remained calm.
"This matter cannot be resolved so easily. First of all, there is insufficient evidence. The only people who had the opportunity to see the Goddess Temple were the Southern King and the old monk.

Fang Qing's expression had already turned sour, and Zhao Shi'an knew that if they continued talking, Fang Qing might even get angry with him.
He quickly grabbed Fang Qing's hand.
"This matter would be difficult for the imperial court to handle, but Fengyulou is not the imperial court."
