Is it that someone still dares not to open the door?
"Maybe the manor is too big, and the people inside can't hear us. You go in and have a look."
"Yes!"
"Don't damage other people's property."
"Understood, Pharmacist."
The guards pushed open the courtyard door, which wasn't locked from the inside; their actions probably didn't constitute forced entry.
"Is anybody there?"
The guards searched around the manor while calling out loudly.
However, after making a round, the guards were baffled: "Pharmacist, there's not a soul in the manor!"
Princess Xinyang sat up abruptly: "What do you mean there's not a soul?"
The pharmacist from Yan Country looked at her in astonishment: "You're awake? Is this manor yours?"
Princess Xinyang, ignoring the soreness in her body, bit down on her teeth, dismounted from the carriage, and upon entering the manor, found it to be just as the guard had said—empty.
"How can this be? Where is everyone?"
