Li Lao-San and He Lao-Si knew very well that there was no way for them to run now, and the twenty thousand taels of Silver they dreamed of had vanished like smoke. At this moment, they feared even keeping their pathetic lives intact wouldn't be easy.
"Your Highness, we humble ones…"
Li Lao-San was about to bring up the Thousand Mechanism Pavilion in a bid to plead for leniency for himself and He Lao-Si, when he noticed a man of elegant nobility stepping off the carriage opposite them.
