Wang Er’s relative shook his head. “I doubt it.”

He then explained that Wang Er was an orphan and had no family to return to. They lived in impoverished conditions without land or fields. The only asset they possessed was a run-down house, mortgaged to soone in order to make money in the capital. In all likelihood, Wang Er, fearing the financial demands of acquaintances or even bandits, would have concealed his identity and sought refuge in an unfamiliar place to start anew.

Facing this information, those who had been tailing Wang Er had no choice but to return to the palace and deliver their report. The decision of whether to continue monitoring Wang Er in ijiang Prefecture City now rested with the Empress Dowager.

Upon receiving the news, the Empress Dowager chastised her agents for their incompetence. She then instructed them to dispatch individuals throughout the capital to search for any traces of Wang Er. However, lacking concrete evidence against Qin Zhenzhen, the Empress Dowager remained unable to implicate her or recover the missing gold.
