The maids nodded, turning to assist in digging ditches.

"Why were you not drugged by the brokers after being sold?" Lin Caisang asked them directly, without any preamble or sending Zhe Jue to investigate.
After all, even if she sent Zhe Jue to investigate, how could they find anything about people from the northern region of Jidi who had passed through several hands?
"What?!"
Zhe Jue came over in surprise when he heard her words.
"Miss Lin, you're saying these women haven't been drugged?"
How could that be possible? The relationship between the Liang Kingdom and the North was always poor, so how could the authorities allow women from the North to be sold here and give birth to descendants of the Liang kingdom?
