As soon as these words were spoken, Pei Shu'er stood up.
"Why is there such a commotion all of a sudden?"
But at this moment, there was no one who could answer her; no one knew the truth.
Pei Shu'er called Zhang Chao and the other three, as well as the Lin brothers, and rode the horses they brought along to the back mountain along the newly opened path.
Then she found that the people at the back mountain were agitated, whispering to two women. These two women were none other than Tang Qingrou and Aunt Lin.
Aunt Lin looked like skin and bones, extremely frail.
Tang Qingrou's right hand was bandaged in gauze, her cheeks still swollen like a pig's, but her eyes shone as if she'd discovered some great secret.
After returning, she was forced to entertain other soldiers, and in the morning, she coaxed the soldier to drop her off at the camp gate, then ran to the deserted mountain early.
