An incident occurred on Yuncai's side, which quickly alerted the yamen of the Imperial City prefecture. Those men were ultimately classified as bandits, but I knew for certain that they must have been secretly raised by someone—perhaps for financial gain, but more likely to investigate what was inside Yuncai's dowry.
In the end, the matter was hastily brushed aside. All the raiders had been killed by Yuncai, making the Second Young Master Xiao's bride all the more mysterious. When the Crown Prince learned that those young maids killed without batting an eye, he was startled as well. Fortunately, they hadn't made a move against them back then; otherwise, if they had been caught off guard and stabbed right through the heart, it wouldn't have been funny at all.
He had a rough idea about those raiders. It was said they were elite soldiers and fierce warriors, all with a strength of eight or nine hundred catties, yet they hadn't even had the power to fight back. One could only imagine how terrifying those young kitchen maids truly were.
