The next day, Long Yue and Li Qingmu got up early and went outside the Liu Mansion, where they saw Liu Hui eagerly seeing Qi Junyi off before following him.
The couple exchanged a smile and, with a leap, quietly entered the Liu Mansion.
Today, the Liu Mansion seemed particularly empty, as most of the servants and maids had followed Liu Hui to serve Qi Junyi. Only a few remained to guard the place, hardly of any use beyond watching the gate.
In fact, if there were a real robber, these people would hardly be able to stop them, let alone Li Qingmu and Long Yue.
The two moved through the Liu Mansion as if unchallenged.
"Liu Hui has served as the Prefect of Liuzhou City for fifteen years. Everything appears stable, but as we traveled here, we saw countless beggars on the streets, revealing numerous bankrupt households. Has he ever shown any concern for the displaced common folk? He consumes the royal salary, yet acts disloyally. Truly, it's despicable!"
