"Understood."
The maidservant dutifully acknowledged the command.
Jiang Que clasped his hands behind his back and followed the maid into the manor.
After walking a few steps, the girl's slender waist swayed lightly, and the bells on her body jingled melodiously, clear and pleasant to the ear.
She turned her head with a smile and said to Housekeeper Wang:
"Please rest assured, Housekeeper Wang. Even if we find the traitor, we won't make a move inside the manor. We do have that bit of courtesy."
Housekeeper Wang was momentarily stunned upon hearing this. After nodding in acknowledgment, he watched them leave.
Jiang Que and a group of female disciples followed the maid through the long corridor.
The girl's steps were light and graceful, like a swallow, pausing occasionally to admire the manor's scenery, seemingly like an innocent and carefree little girl.
