Chapter 1754: These Two Girls Are So Fierce
"Really?" someone asked with a mix of hope and uncertainty.
Shu Yu nodded, "The Emperor is wise and just. He won't indiscriminately kill the innocent. So, when I ask you questions later, just answer truthfully."
"Yes, yes, Miss. You can ask, and we'll tell you everything."
the constable Hong and the others exchanged glances, seemingly contemplating something.
Before long, one constable stood up and said, "Miss, ask...

Chapter 1753: Shu Yu Visits the Dungeon
Now that no one was exploiting them in the black market, the laborers and the girls could have civil conversations with each other, perhaps due to their shared suffering. The girls even mentioned making clothes for the laborers while they had the chance, so that they could leave the black market feeling rejuvenated.
The laborers were delighted. Although they didn't know where their future would lead, at least there was hope.

Chapter 1752: Resolving Changjin Prefecture Together
Shu Yu took a deep breath, realizing that it was still early in the afternoon, and it hadn't been three hours since Meng Yunzheng went home to sleep.
Two days and nights, only five or six hours of sleep. That's a surefire way to collapse.
Seeing her resistance in her eyes, Qi Lie felt distressed, and just as he was contemplating whether to personally go to Meng Yunzheng's residence, a familiar voice spoke from behind.

Shu Yu raised an eyebrow and listened as Qi Lie explained, "Didn't you already warn General Huang in advance and expose the traitor in his ranks? Since we know who the enemy is, let's outsmart them. We intentionally leak information that we're planning to act again at night."
The enemy revealed the plan to third Master Wu and his group. While they were still devising countermeasures, General Huang led his troops straight up the previ...

"Not yet."
Shu Yu thought for a moment and decided to go up the city wall.
Looking down from above, the view was much broader. Shu Yu gazed into the distance, only able to see the bare trees of winter.
It seemed they had to wait a little longer. Shu Yu took the stool hande...

But she didn't know how to delicately address this matter, considering it was already a fact.

At this moment, a few people started to come out onto the street, including the woman that Shu Yu had encountered, as well as many families who couldn't bear the fear caused by the bandits. They all headed to the county office to inquire about the situation.
