The personnel who had previously escorted Chu Lingguang all the way from Baiyang County to Qingzhou Prefecture were from the three shifts of government constables.
Chu Lingguang saw the woman's Identity Token, which read: Official Yang Lijun of Mazhou Prefecture.
Mazhou Prefecture was Mr. Du's territory.
Chaojiang City was right next to Mazhou Prefecture. 'Is she returning to Mazhou Prefecture to report on her mission?' he wondered.
"My lord, it's you."
After presenting her Identity Token and providing the relevant documentation, Yang Lijun looked up and saw Chu Lingguang.
She looked astonished.
'I clearly left the post station during the night, long before Chu Lingguang. How did he get here first? Even with the trouble I ran into, there's no way he should have been able to beat me here.'
'Could it be...?'
She instinctively clutched the wooden box to her chest.
