"Who else could it be apart from you guys?"
With Song Yuan supporting them, the citizens spewed out all their suspicions.
Lu Shaoqing's face turned pallid with anger. He felt the citizens were being unreasonable.
"So many people saw us bring this woman away. If we had meant her harm, would we have been so stupid as to let everyone witness that? Is there anyone in this world as dumb as that?"
Lu Shaoqing's explanation had no effect on the crowd. They glared at him with eyes full of suspicion and guardedness.
Song Yuan looked at the angry faces of the crowd. He immediately said, "Everyone, please don't be rash. I think this is all a misunderstanding. This is General Ji of the Wolf Smoke Regiment. They belong to the Kingdom of the Sacred Dragon military and couldn't possibly have done such an outrageous thing. It must really be a misunderstanding. Everyone, please don't worry. I will investigate this matter thoroughly and account to you all."
