The woman's face instantly turned pale. She waved her hands frantically. "No! That's not it! We really are from General Liu's Mansion..."
Shen Qing glanced behind the woman and saw two men standing there. One was about the same age as the woman, while the other was clearly much younger.
Shen Qing immediately came to a conclusion. They were a family of three, but now, a single token meant only one of the men could leave.
The soldier had clearly lost his patience. He gripped his long spear, jabbed it hard into the ground, and said viciously, "Don't you try any of your little tricks on me! Who knows if this token is even yours? You're probably just lying to get your husband and son out! I'll give you two counts to decide who you're taking. Otherwise, no one leaves!"
The woman frantically shook her head. "No... no..."
"One!"
The soldier ignored her and simply started counting!
"Officer, I beg you, for General Liu's sake, please make an exception!"
"Two!"
