Chapter 401: Cross-Dressing Female General VS Enchanting Femme Fatale (23)

Gu Shengyin shook her head, "Just a mob of rabble. A few of them have been captured by your coachman, ready to be sent to the Ministry of Justice later."

She lowered her eyes, hiding the expression beneath them: these men, whom she had found at great cost, were desperados. She had made them grand promises, ensuring the safety and wealth of their families, in exchange for their lives.

Once at the Ministry of Justice, these men would partially reveal some information as she had instructed. By the time the Ministry of Justice began verifying it, they would naturally connect the dots between this assassination attempt and a previous one.
