Xu Yin's gaze lingered on the steward's face, and after a moment, he looked around, "Where are the assassins?"
"In response to Assistant Minister's question, one of the two assassins escaped, and another was hit. However, before we could catch him, he also fled. Fortunately, our General was unharmed, otherwise—"
The steward paused here, letting out a long sigh and slapping his thigh.
Xu Yin's eyebrows twitched, "Who hit him?"
"I don't know either!" The steward raised his head, saying, "When it happened, I was handling matters outside. Suddenly, I heard noise from our General's room and rushed over, only to find someone attempting to harm him! The servants in the mansion and I were so frightened that we could barely move, so we didn't care about anything else. By the time we came to our senses, the person was already gone!"
"And the person who hit the assassin is also gone?" Xu Yin raised an eyebrow.
