"Officer, wasn't this place searched two days ago? Why the search again?" the butler asked as he pushed the main gates wide open. "Officers, please come in. I will go and inform my master."
Guards in black led the soldiers and rushed in.
The butler jogged toward the main hall, thinking, 'This is terrifying!' Seeing the soldiers and a eunuch following close behind, he didn't dare try to stop them.
"Old Master Zhan! Old Master Zhan!" The butler ran straight into the main hall, so flustered that he tripped over the threshold and tumbled inside.
Zhan Yi was reading in the living room. Hearing the shouts, he looked up just in time to see the butler tumble in head over heels...
"What's going on?"
Just as he stood up, he saw the Hidden Guards leading soldiers charge into the hall behind the butler.
Ignoring the pain, the butler scrambled up from the floor. "The officers are here to search again."
