The shopkeeper was very stubborn, General Qu had predicted what would come out of his mouth. In the end, General Qu was also tired. There was still a lot of time, so he would try again tomorrow. He then confined the shopkeeper to the prison.
Before leaving, the shopkeeper even said something weird, "Tomorrow you will probably know everything. Don't be impatient!"
This made General Qu even more anxious.
He didn't sleep for the entire night.
When the people from the Battle Tower's office arrived at the inn, she first returned to the Residence of Qu and only went to the infirmary to rest after seeing Gu Shenwei.
The bamboo shoot.
Outside of the city walls of the Maze Moon Country, there was a group of people dressed in brocade clothing waiting for the country to open. The crowd looked like they were approaching in full fury, and did not carry any luggage. From the looks of it, they were not just passersby.
When the soldiers on the wall saw the situation, they immediately reported it to General Li, who then reported it to the female emperor this morning.
At the same time, General Qu told the empress about how Xiao Yu's family had been killed by the men of the Sunrise Kingdom.
Ever since the poison incident, the empress had been paying special attention to what was going on, but she never thought that there would be so many people behind it, and that it would involve the Sunrise Kingdom as well.
Since the establishment of the Sun Country, the Moon Country had not been a threat, and the Moon Country had never violated the Sun Country. There was very little communication between the two countries, so it was especially peaceful.
Now, however, Sun Yi could no longer conceal his ambition and actually began to do some small things to the Maze Moon Country.
The empress cared deeply about this matter, and she sent General Li and General Qu to deploy the country's guardian strategy. At the same time, she also sent the unremarkable General Guo and their subordinates to the Sunrise Kingdom to report any movements. If there was any danger, they could help both inside and outside.
Up to the next assembly, none of the people General Li's underlings had spoken of had appeared. The empress's heart was in her mouth.
General Qu and General Li returned to the prison. The shopkeeper who was caught yesterday was still sleeping in his cell. General Qu splashed a bucket of ice water on her, causing the shopkeeper to scream as he sat down.
"Help!"
General Qu's face was expressionless as he waited for the shopkeeper to wake up.
The embarrassed and angry storekeeper trembled as he looked at General Qu and the handsome General Li beside him. His tone was laced with a knife as he asked, "What are you doing?" Can't I get up because of something? What if I get sick while splashing ice water in the middle of winter? "
"If you are sick, my son-in-law will treat you! You won't die until this is cleared up. " General Qu pulled her out of the cell viciously.
"Bang bang!"
A loud sound pierced through the sky as General Qu and General Li jumped. Before they could recover, they saw dozens of people barge into the prison.
When General Qu saw the situation clearly, he felt as if someone had grabbed onto his heart.
Wasn't the person standing in front of him the waiter of Little Yu Grass Hall a few days ago? He was also the Monkey King!
He knew who it was, but what was the use? He still didn't dare to capture him.
"Formidable!" General Qu exclaimed in a low voice before trying his best to conceal the fear in his heart.
"General Qu, we're fine." "Don't worry." Zhan Xiaolou's expression didn't change, but his heart remained calm. The Monkey King, who was holding her, had already gotten used to her calmness.
Because, just two hours ago, when he caught her in his dream, she didn't resist at all, and actively yet abnormally cooperated with the Monkey King. At the beginning, the Monkey King thought that she was afraid, so she was obedient, and when he suppressed her, she wanted to change clothes. He also told Xiao Qing not to forget to change the medicine at the Yi family's home, only then did he realize that she was calm.
