Chapitre 681: 288: Acts like a bandit

The news of Yulin Guard's defeat by the Tatar army spread rapidly. Zhangping Mansion was the first to receive the news. Currently, Magistrate Lu Qin was inquiring about the details. Tongzhi Dai Xuan and Tongpan Geng Yao had solemn expressions. They exchanged glances but neither knew what to say.

"Sir, the Crown Prince will arrive tomorrow," Dai Xuan ventured hesitantly, "He is sure to inquire about the situation in Zhangping Mansion. You need to prepare in advance."

Lu Qin glanced at Dai Xuan upon hearing this. "The Crown Prince has always been magnanimous in his dealings. As long as we stick to our story, he won't suspect anything. Moreover, He Tang and Liu Cheng are both dead. What are you afraid of? The dead can't talk. Remember, we are all in the same boat now. If anyone lets the cat out of the bag, we will all go down together."
