Although Prince Zhao was unwilling to help, Hua Manman still wanted to inform County Magistrate Luo so he could prepare in advance.
She bribed a vegetable vendor, planning to disguise herself as one to sneak into the county government and find an unguarded moment to meet County Magistrate Luo.
However, before she could even get into the county government, she heard the news that County Magistrate Luo had been thrown into the main prison.
Hua Manman was on the verge of tears.
Li Ji casually burned the secret letter he had just finished reading. He looked at her with a smile that wasn't quite a smile and asked.
"You're not thinking of breaking into the prison to rescue him, are you?"
Hua Manman clutched her chest, looking utterly heartbroken.
"I spent a full two taels of silver to bribe that vendor, and now all that money has gone to waste!"
Li Ji: "..."
'So what you actually care about most are those two taels of silver, right?'
