Guo Song received the order: "Understood!"
Pei Zhan thought for a moment, then called him back: "Never mind, go get my sword, I'll go see for myself!"
"I'll go too!"
Upon hearing this, Fu Zhen had already stepped to his side.
"You'd better not go," Pei Zhan said as he walked out, "It's pitch dark. Besides, there are already enough people there."
Fu Zhen was unyielding: "Yet you still tell the Empress that I know military strategy, that I'm not inferior to men, so were you just boasting."
Pei Zhan laughed upon hearing this, met her bright eyes for a moment, then lifted his chin and said: "Alright then! I'll cover for you!"
"Great!"
Fu Zhen immediately stepped out the door, swiftly going to retrieve her gear!
...
Cheng Chili had just led his people out of the street when Pei Zhan and Fu Zhen arrived.
"We haven't found any trace of them, not sure if our assumption was wrong, that they indeed didn't hide here, or if they fled at the news."
