Where did those people go?
"Reporting to Miss! Those people have already left!"
Qian Duoduo, hands on her hips, said somewhat angrily, "Why didn't you wake me up?"
"I'm going into town with them."
"You bunch of good-for-nothings who are more likely to ruin things than accomplish anything."
"You can't even keep a close eye on one person."
The man said with a somewhat aggrieved expression, "Miss, it's not that we couldn't keep an eye on them, it's just that those people were too skilled. By the time we realized what was happening, they were already gone!"
"And this morning we sent our brothers into the city to investigate, and indeed there were wanted posters for that woman everywhere."
"If Miss continues to stay with her, she might get implicated!"
"After all, Luzhou is not peaceful these days. Although we have some businesses here, it's not like we are in the capital! Many people don't even know us!"
Qian Duoduo became even angrier upon hearing this, "Who is she? That's a goddess, the current Empress!"
"There must be more to the story in Luzhou this time. We should keep a close eye on them and offer help when it matters most. Perhaps we can even get involved!"
"Otherwise, the pepper business will fall into the hands of someone else."
"And who is this girl? I'm Qian Duoduo!"
"Even if Hai Jingming and his men rebel, what can they do to me?"
"Even the Marquis of Zhenxi in the capital city has to show some deference to our Qian family."
"Let alone a mere general."
"Don't delay me from making money, let's catch up quickly."
The guards said somewhat aggrievedly, "Miss, why are you competing with them for the pepper business? Even if they really have pepper, they won't have a lot, and it won't last long. Why get involved in this mess? Our Qian family already has enough business!"
"I suspect that this so-called goddess is just desperate for money! She had no other choice but to spout nonsense to her subordinates!"
"Perhaps our spies misheard!"
It turns out that ever since Lin Ru transformed from a peasant weaver into a goddess, and then into Her Majesty the Empress, Qian Duoduo had planted spies around her!
The informant overheard about the pepper and passed it on to her, which led to the initial probing and the subsequent companionship.
Pepper is as valuable as gold. If they can really manage this business well, the Qian family will definitely reach new heights!
Thinking of this, she gritted her teeth and followed after him!
If it was for pepper before, now it's to better understand the owner of this token!
If this girl can truly grow into a wise and benevolent ruler, it will only benefit the Qian family, and bring no harm whatsoever!
Meanwhile, Lin Ru and her group swaggered into Anrui City!
They felt like they were being watched as soon as they walked in!
Moreover, it wasn't just the guards at the city gates; even the people inside the city looked at them with strange eyes!
Especially when he looked at Lin Ru, his eyes were like a wolf eyeing its prey!
There's just been no action!
Ning Xuan looked at the wanted poster on the wall, then at Lin Ru's undisguised face, and at the strange looks from the people around her!
It was truly terrifying!
He carefully tugged at Lin Ru's sleeve!
"Miss! Are you really not going to wear a veil?"
"They just swaggered in like that."
"Those people all love to capture you for a reward!"
"That's five hundred taels of silver!"
"My dad could never earn this much in his entire life!"
Lin Ru said without looking to the side, "If anything happens in a moment, find a place to hide quickly. Don't think about saving us. Don't worry, I will rescue your father safely. Just find a corner outside and wait for us."
"Remember to watch my hand gestures!"
Seeing her confident demeanor, Ning Xuan's anxious heart gradually calmed down!
Meanwhile, in the backyard of the government office in Anrui City, a flamboyant-looking man was sipping tea from a teacup, while sitting opposite him was a burly man with a full beard and his eyes closed.
He listened to the report from below with a smile on his face!
"Oh! This ignorant little brat has actually come. It seems my father-in-law holds a very high place in her heart!"
"Otherwise, we wouldn't have come all this way just because of a letter whose authenticity is unknown!"
"However, it's a pity!"
"I heard this little girl is quite pretty, but she's going to die at the hands of the person she trusts most!"
Do you think I'm right?
Hai Jingming opened his eyes with a hint of helplessness and looked at the androgynous boy in front of him. "Liu Shengxuan! I advise you to stop!"
"You are no match for the Goddess."
"If you're willing to clean up now, I'll even plead for you before the Goddess."
"At that time, even your father will not be able to harm you."
“Mingzhu likes you so much, I won’t let her down. You can be my son-in-law openly and legitimately.”
"But if you continue to insist on your own way, not only you, but even your father will definitely not escape His Majesty's grasp!"
Upon hearing this, Liu Shengxuan threw his head back and burst into laughter, laughing so hard that tears streamed down his face!
"My dear father-in-law! You are so naive! How could you be so optimistic? Did you really think that little brat could escape my grasp? Let me tell you, I have already laid a trap for the entire city of Anrui, just waiting for her to come!"
"Did you really think I posted those wanted posters so that those useless people in the city would help me catch her?"
"You don't really think she knows nothing, do you?"
“When I searched Ning Gui’s house, I deliberately let one person slip through the net.”
"They should have reunited with her by now!"
"She knew there was something wrong with An Ruicheng, but she still came here without fear of death."
"I'm getting more and more excited."
"What kind of girl is she?"
"Oh, right!"
"My father-in-law!"
"I forgot to tell you!"
"Ning Gui always believed that you were the one who betrayed that goddess."
"It seems this goddess has come to clean house."
"You said if I have someone bring it over, then your fighting will have nothing to do with me."
"Then Haimingzhu will be completely at my mercy!?"
Upon hearing this, Hai Jingming became extremely agitated. He struggled desperately, but was helplessly bound to the armchair!
His eyes were red-rimmed, and he glared angrily at the gloomy-looking young man before him, roaring, "Liu Shengxuan! If you dare to lay a finger on my daughter, I will never let you get away with this!"
"Mingzhu likes you so much! Yet you took advantage of her!"
