"What?"
Upon hearing this, the faces of the two women changed. Liang Xue began to panic while Ning Wan remained relatively calm and quickly said, "This is Longmen County. How could the rebel army have reached here? Isn't the master in Shiling County?"
"I... I don't know." The soldier had been stationed in Longmen County and rushed over to report as soon as he saw the city gate breached, having no idea what specifically transpired up front.
"Master, mistress, it's bad. A group of rebels is heading towards the county government office. We... we should run." A constable from the government office dashed in urgently and exclaimed in panic.
Upon hearing this, Ning Wan no longer kept calm. Her serene and gentle face couldn't conceal her panicked expression, revealing the fear and distress of a young woman facing calamity. Momentarily indecisive, she asked the constable, "Wh-... where do we run?"
"The back door, use the back door," the constable replied.
