Xu Jing was momentarily stunned and quickly ran to the outside of Wang Man's house. When she saw Wei Muqing jogging towards her, she felt both surprise and delight.
The man beside Wei Muqing, who else could it be but Cheng Xiao?
Cheng Xiao's presence here indicated that he and Yan Ci had completed their task.
But why was Wei Muqing also here?
Xu Jing hurriedly went to greet them, and before she could say anything, Wei Muqing clasped her hand and said excitedly, "Jing, I just found out that you're the wife of Vice Minister Xiao! You have no idea how terrible Vice Minister Xiao looked when Chunyang found me and asked me to help deliver the note you wrote to him.
But Vice Minister Xiao is really kind. After I delivered the note, he said that the situation in Lingzhou was unusual and that it might be dangerous for me to leave at this time, so he let me temporarily stay in Lingzhou City.
Who would have expected that a battle would actually break out now!"
