She waved her hand: "No need for a midnight snack, you can go now! I'm going to sleep!"
As she spoke, she walked from the window to the bedroom and even lowered the curtains and tent.
Seeing this, the maid turned around and went out, heading straight for the second gate without even turning.
In the room, Song Liyun blew out the candles, took off her outer garment and hung it by the bedside, then took out a roll of sheepskin from her spatial storage and placed it in the quilt, arranging it to resemble a sleeping person.
After tidying herself up, she lay down at the foot of the bed and took out an invisible fabric to wrap herself up.
It was late at night and the sounds outside were even clearer as I lay close to the ground.
Only a short time later, a series of footsteps sounded from outside. They stopped at the doorway and hesitated only slightly before the knife pried open the bolt.
By the dim moonlight, Song Liyun saw a pair of soap-colored boots slowly approaching the bedside.
Before the person could even see what was on the bed, Song Liyun had already silently used a rope to loop around the person's ankle from under the bed.

But... after taking only two steps, his foot suddenly tightened, and he was thrown into the air and fell to the ground.
Song Liyun didn't remove the invisibility cloth; she rolled out from under the bed, swung an axe, and smashed it into the man's forehead.
The man was still reeling from the fall when he saw a grayish thing roll out from under the bed. Before he could even cry out, a dark stick came hurtling straight at his face.
All of this happened in the blink of an eye; the man's head was smashed so hard he was knocked unconscious.
Song Liyun didn't try to move the person. Instead, she listened carefully. When there was no further movement outside, she took a closer look at the person who had tried to kidnap her.
He was a middle-aged man dressed as an official or yamen runner, and appeared to be a staff member of the garrison.
