***Past***
Xu Song was trying to catch her breath and explain the situation at the same time. "The palace… Palace soldiers…"
Xiong Jingfei didn't wait for Xu Song to finish explaining. She can hear her people screaming, crying, and running for their life.
"Come." Xiong Jingfei grabbed Xu Song by the arm and ran towards the front where most of the noise was.
"Miss, the palace soldiers broke down our doors and are detaining our people." Xu Song explained. "They're searching the entire manor for our people."
Why? That's what Xiong Jingfei wants to find out.
It was loud, deafening, and terrifying.
The racket of the soldiers storming in and the sound of the front doors getting trampled on. Even the ground vibrated with their heavy footsteps overwhelming on her people. It was as if they were sentenced to a grave crime already.
