NOVPUBGu Zhi gently pulled Shen Roujia away and coughed lightly, “Be mindful of appearances; I’m a Young General now.”
Shen Roujia looked Gu Zhi up and down, admiring her red military uniform and the high ponytail she wore. She really was incredibly handsome.
Shen Roujia smiled mischievously, her eyes curved in delight, and she stuck out her tongue playfully, “Perfect, this gives me a chance to show everyone here that I’m not someone to be messed with.”
She bounced along behind Gu Zhi as they entered the Magistrate’s residence.
But without dwelling on it for too long, Shen Roujia blurted out, “So, was collecting the grain going smoothly? Do you need my help?”
Gu Zhi shook her head, “I heard that you were with a group of people from the Martial Alliance. What’s really going on?”
As soon as Gu Zhi finished speaking, Shen Roujia pursed her lips, “So, is this also one of the Hidden Pavilion’s capabilities?”
Gu Zhi chuckled, “Not at all, news spreads fast in the martial world, and since I wasn’t in Capital city, all the information that got around was second-hand. I’m not too sure about anything else.”
Shen Roujia frowned at his words, “I really don’t know what the situation is like in Capital city right now.”
Gu Zhi shook her head, “But things in Yancheng are quite troublesome at the moment. The officials aren’t doing their jobs, and the local bullies are running wild. We’ve only been gone for a year, and it’s already turned into this.”
Shen Roujia furrowed her brow, “Will it affect the war with the Northern Border?”
