The two prison guards were stunned and looked behind him, only to laugh awkwardly twice.
Pei Xingyuan also laughed.
There was no need to worry about him escaping because accompanying the carriage was a squad of guards, each strong and sturdy, with curved blades at their waists, solemn expressions, all ordered to escort him. After hearing his words, their gazes became sharp, afraid that if he made a wrong move now, these men would immediately pounce.
In this situation, even contemplating escape would be improper.
Not only improper, it would be an admission of guilt, solidifying the accusation. If he ran, their Pei Family would truly face eternal damnation.
Seeing the guards tense, Pei Xingyuan laughed again, "I am joking with you all."
The two prison guards chuckled in return, "We know Lord Pei loves to joke. We'll listen to your jokes again when you return."
Pei Xingyuan smiled and replied, "How do you know I will return?"
