Chapter 1254: Chapter 1254: Unconscious

They supported the unconscious Xuexue and were about to walk down the stairs...

Suddenly, the noisy commotion from downstairs came up, and the dwarf, being a seasoned Itinerant World person, immediately became alert. He hunched his small, stooped body, sneakily limped over to the staircase, crouched down to peek downstairs...

A group of people unknowingly entered the hall below the inn. Judging by their attire, they seemed very ordinary, no different from average Itinerant World people.

The dwarf was a very suspicious person, and immediately, he sensed something unusual.

After all, the legitimate eldest Miss of the General’s Mansion disappeared into thin air last night, and now the entire Capital is in chaos. Everywhere are the figures of the General’s Mansion guards and government office soldiers searching. He couldn’t help but be cautious.

After checking briefly, he tiptoed back, put a finger to his lips, and whispered to Zhang San, "Shh! Don’t make a sound, quickly retreat back to the room."

"What’s wrong?" Zhang San asked, confused.

The dwarf had a guilty conscience. Last night, the legitimate eldest Miss of the General’s Mansion was kidnapped, and today the city is full of soldiers searching. He knew clearly, these soldiers were definitely here for Situtu Xueer.

Indeed, Situ Yongjie, a dignified Great General of the current dynasty, held a very prominent status in Moli Country.

His daughter was kidnapped from the mansion, this is a big deal, even the Emperor was alarmed.

The Emperor originally coveted the military power in Situ Yongjie’s hands. Now, with an opportunity to win over Situ Yongjie, he immediately dispatched many Imperial Guards to the General’s Mansion to assist Situ Yongjie in investigating this matter.

The government office, seeing the Emperor prioritizing the General’s Mansion, became even more diligent in thoroughly investigating this matter, causing chaos throughout the Capital.

The common people didn’t know what happened. It was barely dawn, and there were so many soldiers searching in the Capital, many shops couldn’t even do business. As soon as customers saw the soldiers enter, they all fled like a swarm.

Every shop was deserted.

The Shopkeepers felt helpless, but facing the soldiers, even with the greatest resentment in their hearts, they dared not express it.

It seemed they couldn’t do business today, and the Shopkeepers stood at the doorway, discussing spiritedly...

"Oh my! What exactly happened? Why are even the Imperial Guards deployed today?"

"Who knows? It’s all so secretive."

"There must be some big event happening again."

"Yes! Judging by the situation, something major must have happened!"

"Wasn’t that Great General Situ just now who walked by with people?"

"Yes! It certainly was him."

"Could it be that something major happened at the General’s Mansion?"

At this moment, a maid-like person came over and joined their conversation: "Indeed, let me tell you, I’ve heard that the eldest Miss of the Situ Mansion is missing. She was kidnapped last midnight, and who knows who has such courage to do such a thing."

Upon hearing this big news, everyone started gossiping...

"Oh my! A young lady was kidnapped in the middle of the night, is her innocence still intact?"

"Right, right, it seems the eldest Miss cannot escape this disaster— even if she’s rescued, her reputation is ruined. What a pity for such a beautiful woman."

The matter Situ Yongjie tried hard to cover up was thus widely spread throughout the Capital. From high officials and nobles to the common people, everyone knew about it.

Situ Yongjie was furious to the point of madness. He really couldn’t understand how this matter got leaked.

However, before finding Situtu Xueer, he wasn’t in the mood to deal with these things.
