The Governor's Wife glanced at the insignia on the carriage.
Usually, family carriages bear their own emblem for easy identification by others.
However, although this carriage was luxurious, it bore no insignia whatsoever.
Observing the guards wielding long, broad swords, it was clear they were top-notch experts.
The Governor's Wife surveyed the scene. As her guards prepared to inspect the carriage, she suddenly spoke, "Wait. Let me handle this personally."
She approached the carriage and spoke toward Feng Fuce behind the curtains, "I presume your intervention earlier was considering the lady traveling with you."
"It was somewhat presumptuous of us, so I will handle the inspection personally, thus not offending the lady in the carriage."
Feng Fuce lowered his gaze to Bai Zhi'er and then responded with a simple "Hmm," giving his consent.
Bai Zhi'er felt that this Governor's Wife was, after all, someone who observes the rules.
