Madam Guo and her daughter returned to Beijing. Watching the distant departing ships, Governor Guo remained silent for a long time. It wasn't until the ships were no longer visible that he turned to walk away. On the way, he asked his trusted aide, "Have you found out who was sitting in that carriage that day?"
The trusted aide nodded, "It was the eldest daughter of the Yan Family. She planned the entire event that day."
Governor Guo furrowed his brows and huffed, "Yan Zhigao's daughter is quite capable indeed." He paused and then continued, "Did Yangyang leave some people behind?"
The trusted aide replied, "I'll need to check on that."
Governor Guo said, "Make a thorough check. Once you find them, bring them to me."
That very afternoon, the trusted aide brought Deshou before Governor Guo.
Governor Guo looked at Deshou and directly asked, "Has Yangyang taken a liking to the eldest daughter of the Yan Family?"
