Ye Shiqi observed the tunnel. It wasn't something dug temporarily. Inside was pitch black; if not for using space to search, one wouldn't find out where this tunnel leads at all!
She now suspected whether it was the innkeeper who dug the tunnel or someone else who frequently used this tunnel for criminal activities!
Or perhaps, the innkeeper uses this tunnel as a secret escape route!
With these suspicions, Ye Shiqi became more cautious and quietly instructed the maid to report to the Guard Commander, telling them to be careful. There's a secret passage on one side of the courtyard, right near where they parked the carriages!
If this passage entrance was arranged by thieves, then the first to suffer would likely be the guards by the carriages!
This time, they brought along just over 20 guards and three drivers.
