Zheng Fu opened his mouth, but no words came out.
He didn't want to leave Yuanbao behind, nor did he want to stay behind himself.
But Li Ji's attitude was unyielding, so Zheng Fu could only choose one of the two.
In the end, Zheng Fu chose to leave Yuanbao behind.
Zheng Fu's steps were heavy as he left.
He couldn't possibly ignore Yuanbao's safety. Therefore, this trip to the county government was strictly for the performance. After the show, he would have to lead the opera troupe back to the inn.
After sending Zheng Fu off, Li Ji closed the door. When he turned around, he saw Hua Manman standing by the window.
Hua Manman was peeking out through a crack in the window and saw two government soldiers leaving the inn.
She pulled her gaze away and turned to Li Ji.
"What kind of important guest could there be in a small place like this?"
Li Ji said, "If you want to know, you can just ask Zheng Fu and his men when they get back tomorrow."
