You confiscated my property, I exiled you, why are you crying when the treasury is empty?

The shopkeeper shook his head, “No, but I saw that both of their carriages were empty.

He's probably heading south to buy some supplies."

After hearing this, several officials nodded in agreement. After all, most of the merchants passing by them were going to the south to purchase goods.

The city gates are closed now, and even if we leave, we have to wait until tomorrow.

Then he asked the few people following him to guard the South Gate early tomorrow morning, and if they met the people from today, they should stop them directly.

After thinking about it, I decided to send one person to the north gate just in case.

Su Wanning and the others originally planned to ask the inn to change rooms, but they thought about what happened today.

Finally, we moved to another inn.

Not long after they settled in, officials came.

At that time, Su Wanning, Zhan Beiwang and Jin Hua were downstairs eating the midnight snack that had just been prepared by the inn.

I heard a few people talking.

"Have you ever had a merchant couple stay with two maids and two guards here today?"

The shopkeeper shook his head, "No, has something happened to you, sir?"

"They have offended the Cheng family. If they come to stay here, remember to report to the government office."

The shopkeeper nodded and prepared to send the officials away.

The leading officer glanced in the direction of Su Wanning and the other two when he left.

Seeing that they were unfamiliar faces, he pointed in their direction and asked the shopkeeper, "What do those people do?"

The shopkeeper followed their gaze and said, "They are here for sightseeing, and they just asked us if there are any good places to visit nearby.

They must be brother and sister. I just saw the woman calling the man next to her "brother."

As they were talking, they saw Su Wanning pick up a piece of food with chopsticks and put it into Zhan Beiwang's bowl. "Brother, I really know I was wrong. There won't be a next time."

The officer looked at the three people again, and finally left with his men.

After seeing them leave, Su Wanning continued to eat her meal. She just wanted to have a midnight snack, but she didn't expect to encounter such a thing.

If those officers knew that they were eating right under their noses, would they be furious?

Thinking of this, she laughed out loud.

Zhan Beiwang became even more furious when he heard Su Wanning laugh. She was calling him "brother" sweetly one second, and then ignored him the next.

After they had finished their meal, Su Wanning asked Jinhuan to notify Yueshu and the other three.

Jinhua pointed to the door and said, "They're here."

Su Wanning saw the three of them coming over and quickly asked them to sit down.

"You must be hungry after sitting here for so long. Come on, eat something."

I went to the counter and ordered a few more dishes.

The shopkeeper looked in their direction, as if he had noticed something.

Su Wanning also reacted at this time and took out ten taels of silver and put it on the counter.

The shopkeeper took the silver from behind, fiddled with the abacus with his fingers and said lightly,

"Early tomorrow morning, our inn's kitchen will go out of town to buy food. We can ask those officials who are familiar with the food to follow them."

Su Wanning responded with a smile, "Thank you very much, boss."

Early the next morning.

Su Wanning and the others got up immediately. Yue Shu and the others had already followed the innkeepers out of the city.

After a simple breakfast, he packed a few breakfasts for Yueshu and the other three before slowly leaving the city.

What she didn't expect was that they left the house so easily.

After walking for a cup of tea, he reunited with Yue Shu and others.

They stopped the carriage to let everyone have breakfast before continuing on their journey.

The city had already been in chaos. Last night, there was a fire in Cheng's house, but the fire was quickly put out.

However, it still caused considerable losses, and because of the incident with the Cheng family's daughter, the government officials have not found that group of people until now.

The county magistrate, who was originally going to be intimate with his wife last night, was interrupted in the middle of the night and could not continue.

He didn't expect it to be such a mess. Now the Cheng family asked him to find those people within three days.

Otherwise, they would no longer pay tribute to the government every month.

You know, the county magistrate's current property almost all depends on the Cheng Mansion, so he has to go there to express his attitude.

After listening to the servant's report, the county magistrate's wife complained while she was dressing him.

"Everyone in the city knows what kind of person the daughter of the Cheng family is, but no one expected her to be someone who would actively climb into someone's bed.

He deserves to be paraded in the streets."

"Don't let others hear you say this." The county magistrate glanced at her.

"Master, I'm right. But even if you find the person, what kind of punishment should you impose on him? After all, he hasn't violated any of the laws of the Dashun Dynasty."

The county magistrate naturally knew this, but for now he could only try his best to go along with the Cheng family.

After packing up, he took a carriage directly to Cheng Mansion.

When he saw that the gate of Cheng Mansion had been almost burned down, he remembered what the servants had said about the fire in Cheng Mansion.

He thought that at most one or two rooms would be burned, but he didn't expect that there was almost no good place in the entire Cheng Mansion.

As soon as he walked in, he was hit several times by Master Cheng, "They must be in the same group. Where are they? They haven't been found yet?"

The county magistrate was a little confused for a moment, but after being beaten a few times, he realized that Mr. Cheng must have suspected that the people who carried the daughter of the Cheng family to the street for public display were in the same group as the arsonists.

If that's the case, then it's easy to deal with. "Master Cheng, don't worry, I will definitely catch the man and bring him to you, and let you deal with him as you wish."

After being scolded a few more times by Mr. Cheng, he was kicked out of the Cheng Mansion.

He immediately ordered his men to close the city gates and search house by house.

On the other side, Su Wanning's carriage had already gone a long way.

We arrived at the plum blossom forest recommended by the shopkeeper.

I found a clean place, took out the packed food and ate lunch.

Then he took out his Polaroid camera and kept taking pictures.

Finally, here is a group photo.

As soon as the photo came out, Su Wanning shook it in her hand.

Just as he was about to let others see the effect, a sword rushed straight towards the photo in Su Wanning's hand.

When a few people saw this, they quickly took out their swords and fought back.

Su Wanning was stunned on the spot holding the photo. Was it so sudden? She hadn't reacted yet.

She thought that her previous practice with archery could at least protect herself, but looking at those who kept attacking, she was afraid that she would be killed before she even took out her bow and arrow.

But he still put all the things back into the space, took out the bow and arrow, drew the bow and arrow, and kept aiming.

He didn't notice that someone was slowly approaching from behind.

Just as Su Wanning was about to shoot the arrow, a voice suddenly reminded her.

"Little girl, be careful behind you."

Su Wanning immediately turned around and shot the arrow in her hand.

One hit.

He shot the man several more arrows and he fell to the ground.

Su Wanning walked over and kicked the man.
