Gu Qianfan read the smuggling case file at night and told Chen Lian to hand it over to the local authorities, and he could return to the capital immediately. He asked Chen Lian if he had any news about the Easter Capital. Chen Lian understood what Qianfan meant and told him that there was no news about Ms. Zhao.

Gu Qianfan told Chen Lian that he and Minister Xiao were not the same, and sat alone on the steps of Zhao's tea shop. Ms.Zhao made her own fruit and rewarded Mr. Chi's subordinates. Her craftsmanship amazed everyone.
