Gong Zixuan was furious at these words. If he truly allowed Gong Qinghua to bring others into his prince mansion for a search, where would he put his honor?

"Isn't your dog's nose very sharp? If those food supplies have been moved, wouldn't your dog be able to trace them?" Xiao'er couldn't help but retort sarcastically upon hearing these words.
The corner of Gong Qinghua's mouth twitched. "Your dog's nose"... was that referring to his own nose being like that of a dog, or to his wolfdog's nose?
