Wufu did not linger long at Lin Family Village; she left before dawn. Although she brought a few people with her, when she left, it was Xiao Qi driving the carriage, while the others were assigned elsewhere.
"Are you worried, Miss?" Jadeite handed a cup of tea to Wufu, who was resting her forehead, and asked.
Wufu replied, "Not entirely, but the matter, if exposed, will be disadvantageous to us and might reveal our spies in Nanyue."
She cherished her wings; inserting spies was not easy, and to keep them undetected required the utmost caution. To lose them over this would indeed be a bit of a loss.
"Let's head to Wang Family Fort." Wufu ordered, "We need to sort this through carefully."
She could not just retreat and be done with it; she had to come up with another plan. Ideally, divert the trouble, find someone to bear the blame for them. But who could it be?
Wufu touched her chin, and suddenly a face flashed in her mind. Got it!
