After entering the General's residence, Chun Zhou was immediately summoned by her master for questioning. 0
 
At first, she worried that her identity might be exposed, but Bai Li Yu, sitting in the study reading, only glanced up at her after she mentioned her name. Chun Zhou let out a sigh of relief and retreated, clutching her chest. 0
 
From that point on, Chun Zhou's life in the General's residence was relatively "peaceful." 0
 
One day, a distinguished guest arrived at the General's residence. The kitchen staff began their preparations before dawn. 0
 
Chun Zhou, half-asleep, spent the entire day in a daze, wielding a gleaming white knife as she chopped vegetables. 0
 
As evening approached, the beautiful maids of the main courtyard entered one after another, personally serving exquisite dishes. Meanwhile, Chun Zhou, feeling neglected, was in a corner of the garden playing with Big Yellow. Big Yellow, unable to endure the teasing any longer, left behind a pile of droppings and quickly scurried away. Chun Zhou was taken aback and had no choice but to find something to clean it up. However, when she returned to the garden, she found someone standing at the scene of the incident— 0
 
A tall shadow was looking down at the ground, and upon closer inspection, Chun Zhou realized that the shadow was stamping its foot like a girl throwing a tantrum! 0
 
"I stepped in it..." Chun Zhou murmured to herself, her heart sinking as she dropped the dustpan with a clatter. The shadow turned its head slightly and shot her a sharp glance. 0
 
Before Chun Zhou's brain could even send the command to "run," the person swiftly lunged forward and covered her mouth and nose. 0
 
"Spare me, brave warrior!" Chun Zhou mumbled through her muffled voice. The warrior had a strong grip that nearly made her faint before loosening their hold slightly. "Did you set this trap?" 0
 
The voice was robust and had an air of danger about it, but the words were rather lacking in sophistication. 0
 
Chun Zhou looked up with wide, watery eyes, silently pleading for them to let her go. 0
 
 
The shadow released its grip. 0
 
"Creak, creak, creak... What trap? It was my dog! The moonlight is so bright tonight! Didn't you see that big pile?" 0
 
As the words were spoken, the moon conveniently revealed its full face, and Chun Zhou's jaw dropped to her collarbone as she exclaimed in shock, "…Greetings, General..." 0
 
At that moment, a voice suddenly called out from ahead, "A Zhou! What are you doing over there?!" 0
 
Seeing someone approach and realizing she had been recognized, Bai Li Yu became frantic. "So you’re calling yourself Chun Zhou now? I remember you! If you say anything about tonight, I will definitely kill you!" With that, she tiptoed away into the flower bushes. Just then, Mama Li from the kitchen happened to walk over. 0
 
"A Zhou... something big has happened... Your Big Yellow has..." 0
 
"What do you mean 'you’re calling yourself Chun Zhou now'? ... Big Yellow... did it poop again?" 0
 
Chun Zhou was still reeling from her earlier thoughts when Mama Li quietly finished her sentence: "It got into trouble." 0
 
"What should we do?!" In the main courtyard banquet hall, the person said to be the emperor's favorite of the moment, young master Jing, was glaring angrily at Chun Zhou, who knelt below him. 0
 
Having crossed over to this world, this was already the second time she had knelt—how humiliating! How embarrassing! Chun Zhou thought furiously; she had to do something to uphold the dignity of the female lead! 0
 
So, under everyone's watchful eyes, Chun Zhou straightened her back. "What evidence do you have? What evidence proves that my Big Yellow assaulted your Northern Earth Mother Dog that’s taller than me?!" 0
 
"Ah!" young master Jing's face turned bright red. "I saw it all! How dare a servant like you be so bold..." 0
 
 
"Now you haven't caught Big Yellow either! Words alone are not enough! You can't slander someone like this..." Chun Zhou spoke with righteous indignation. Although she knew deep down that Big Yellow, that shameless dog, could definitely do such a thing, she could only stubbornly deny it at this moment. 0
 
"No, no! A servant has dared to insult me like this; where is the general?" 0
 
"I am here." The voice was not loud, but it still silenced the crowd. 0
 
Bai Li Yu entered, dressed in a flowing black robe, exuding grace and elegance, with Qing Yu in her red attire closely following behind. 0
 
The guests sighed at beauty Baili's unparalleled beauty, while only Chun Zhou couldn't help but glance at his new shoes. 0
 
"General, you have finally arrived... How could there be such a troublesome servant in your household?" young master Jing looked at Chun Zhou with disdain. "The mud dog she raised has injured my Hound. I hope General Baili can give me justice." 0
 
"Oh?" Bai Li Yu seemed quite interested as he stepped down from his position. "Who are you..." 0
 
"I am the servant Chun Zhou." 0
 
"Chun Zhou?" After pondering for a moment, Bai Li Yu said lightly, "Someone, take her away and execute her." 0
 
The guests were stunned into silence by the general's smiling face, and young master Jing did not expect Bai Li Yu to be so ruthless; he was momentarily taken aback. 0
 
What? What? Chun Zhou was dumbfounded. Did the handsome man just say the words "execute"? Just because she saw him step in dog feces? Was he really going to destroy the evidence? 0
 
She was dazed for a moment, but before the soldiers rushed in, she regained her senses and shouted, "Wait!" 0
